The Democratic governor explained his opposition to House Bill 1218 in a letter to lawmakers on Tuesday, arguing that the bill would have expensive implications on residential and commercial neighborhoods without offering residents significant evidence of future savings. Polis said the "inflexible mandates" outlined would put builders and developers in an unfair position, forcing them to raise prices and further damage the housing market.
