New protections for Colorado tenants went into effect Monday, covering what landlords can insert into lease agreements and capping costs associated with renting an apartment here.

The new protections represent three of the bills that survived that search this year, and they broadly seek to ease the pathway into housing for renters.

Faith Winter, a Westminster Democrat, said in a statement. ” … By preserving the affordable housing stock we already have and strengthening renters’ rights, Coloradans will be better positioned to find housing options that fit their budget and sign rental agreements that preserve their comfort and safety.

Opinion: The Colorado Option is not workingThe charade that the Colorado Option would supply healthcare savings and benefits for consumers is tumbling down like a house of cards.
