(1) No public body or other person (other than
the federal government) shall, after June 14, 1969, acquire or improve within the territorial limits
of the district any drainage and flood control facilities (other than gutters and rainspouts attached
to buildings and other structures; other than curbs and gutters pertaining to the improvement of
any streets, alleys, highways, and other rights-of-way; and other than a collection or secondary
storm drainage system, as defined in the Denver regional council of governments storm drainage
criteria manual, as from time to time amended) until a proposal for such an acquisition or
improvement has been approved by the board.
(2) If any person (other than the federal government) after June 14, 1969, acquires or
improves any such facilities without such approval, the board may order their modification to
meet the reasonable specifications and other requirements of the district.
(3) The board shall not approve a proposal for any such acquisition or improvement
unless the drainage or flood control facilities so to be acquired or improved appropriately
complement or supplement the facilities of the district, both proposed and acquired, and upon the
adoption of a comprehensive program for the acquisition of facilities for the district, as from
time to time modified, if modified, pursuant to section 32-11-214, appropriately conform to such
program.
(4) The board shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of nor disapprove any such
proposal unless such facilities to be acquired or approved do not so complement or supplement
the district's facilities or do not so conform to such a comprehensive program of the district, if
any.
(5) If any such proposal does not sufficiently delineate the facilities so to be acquired or
improved for the board to determine whether such facilities so complement or supplement the
district's facilities and so conform to such a comprehensive program of the district, if any, the
board may order such additional information to be furnished to it as it may deem necessary or
desirable for it to make such a determination. The board may delay its consideration of any such
proposal until the additional information which the board requests is received by it.
