Federal red tape causes harmful delays to water storage efforts in Northern Colorado

Beginning July 1, 2016, the fees for Colorado driver licenses and several related services will change.

These changes were authorized in HB16-1415 and are intended to help offset the cost of providing Division of Motor Vehicles services.

The fee for a driver license for U.S. citizens and individuals able to demonstrate permanent or temporary lawful presence in the U.S. will increase by $1 to $26.  The fee for a driver license under SB-251 (Colorado Road and Community Safety Act) will not change, because the cost for providing this service is already fully recouped.
