Legislators work in the Senate chamber at the Colorado State Capitol building in Denver on Friday, May 3, 2024. The Colorado legislature began its upcoming weekend work on Friday as the 2024 session nears its end on May 8. The Colorado legislature is returning Sunday during the final weekend of work in its 2024 session, set to end Wednesday. Among major pieces of legislation still pending are gun regulations, housing, land-use policy, transportation, property tax reform and other priorities.

The second attempt hasn’t been easy, and none of the bills has advanced unscathed. House Bill 1313 has been amended repeatedly, sparking frustration from one Democratic senator Saturday night. The parking measure, which supporters feared was on life support just a few days ago, was pared back from a broad ban to only developments near transit stops; local governments also would now have a case-by-case option to still require some parking.

Gonzales called for a no vote on the bill at one point. Later, during a procedural vote, she also advanced an amendment that would’ve essentially gutted the ADU measure.
