Senator Cooke, co-prime sponsor, presented House Bill 17-1308 to the committee. This bill removes the mandatory imposition of certain parole conditions. Under the bill:
• the State Parole Board (Board) is no longer required to fix the manner and time of payment of restitution as a condition of every parole and instead, parolees will follow the conditions imposed by the court;
• a parolee is required to notify his or her community parole officer prior to a change of residence rather than obtaining his or her knowledge and consent prior to moving;
• the requirement that every parolee submit to urinalysis or other drug tests is removed;
• the requirement that every parolee obtain the permission of his or her community parole officer prior to having contact with another inmate, parolee, probationer, or person with a prior criminal history is removed; and
• the Board is no longer required to direct every parolee, at his or her own expense, to submit to random chemical testing to determine the presence of drugs or alcohol.
