C.R.S. Section 11-41-109
Certificate of approval

  • where articles filed

(1)

If the commissioner finds affirmatively for the association upon all the matters set forth in section 11-41-107, he shall issue a certificate of approval under his hand and seal, executed in duplicate, within sixty days thereafter, in which shall be recited in substance the following:

(a)

That the articles of incorporation and bylaws have been filed in his office;

(b)

That said articles of incorporation and bylaws conform to the provisions of the law;

(c)

That he has approved the same.

(2)

The commissioner shall attach one of said certificates to each copy of the articles of incorporation and shall retain one copy of the articles of incorporation and bylaws in his office and return the other copy of the articles and bylaws, with the certificate of approval attached thereto, to the association. Upon receipt from the commissioner of the articles of incorporation, the association shall file the same with the secretary of state, and certified copies of the articles of incorporation shall be filed by the association in the office of the county clerk and recorder of each county in this state in which said association may own real estate. The failure to file a certified copy in the office of the clerk and recorder of any county in this state shall not affect the validity of the incorporation of any association which has made its filing with the secretary of state and has obtained a certificate of approval. In the event a true copy of such articles of incorporation is presented to the secretary of state with the request that the same be certified, he shall certify the same for a fee which shall be determined and collected pursuant to section 24-21-104 (3), C.R.S., which certificate shall contain, in addition to the usual statement, a statement that the same is a true copy of the original articles of incorporation on file in his office and a statement as to the date of the filing of such articles of incorporation. When articles of incorporation or amendments thereto have been filed in the office of the secretary of state, he shall record and carefully preserve the same in his office, and a copy thereof, duly certified by the secretary of state under the great seal of the state of Colorado, shall be evidence of the existence of such association and prima facie evidence of the contents of said articles of incorporation or such amendments thereto.

(3)

The secretary of state shall charge for the filing of documents for savings and loan associations the same fees that are charged for corporations with like capital stock, as prescribed in the “Colorado Corporation Code”, and such fees shall be deposited in the department of state cash fund created in section 24-21-104 (3), C.R.S.
