No district created under the provisions of this article shall levy a marketing and promotion tax or provide services unless the local government or each member of the combination has approved an operating plan for the district. The operating plan shall specifically identify the services to be provided by the district, any marketing and promotion tax to be imposed by the district, and such additional information as required. The district shall file an operating plan and its proposed budget for the next fiscal year with the clerk of the local government or each member of the combination no later than September 30 of each year. All of the business records of the district shall be considered public records, as defined in section 24-72-202 (6), C.R.S., and shall promptly be made available upon request. For the purposes of this section, the business records of the district shall not include the business records of the owners of property in the district. The local government or the members of the combination may require the district to supplement the district's operating plan or budget where necessary. The local government or each member of the combination shall approve or disapprove the operating plan within thirty days after receipt of such operating plan and all requested documentation relating thereto, but not later than December 5 of the year in which such documents are filed. Thereafter, the services and financial arrangements of the district shall conform so far as practicable to the operating plan. The operating plan may, from time to time, be amended by the district with the approval of the local government or each member of the combination in substantially the same manner as the process for formulating the operating plan for each year. Any material departure from the operating plan, as originally approved or amended from time to time, may be enjoined by an order of the local government filed with the board.
