The Denver Gazette: The Douglas County Board of Commissioners is challenging a recent court decision that found the board violated Colorado Open Meetings Law.

County commissioners filed a petition Thursday seeking a rehearing from the Colorado Court of Appeals. On April 2, the appellate court ruled that a trial court erred in rejecting a preliminary injunction that would have halted a Home Rule special election and prohibited the BOCC from further violating COML.

The appellate court decision also found that a series of meetings held by the Board of County Commissioners were subject to — and violated — COML.
