BB. Have a legitimate, legally recognized reason to terminate a tenancy (such as non-payment, lease violation, or owner move-in) rather than terminating without causeCorrect
CC. Provide 6 months' notice before any eviction, though the precise application can differ somewhat from one county to the next, though specifics can vary by situation
DD. Allow tenants to remain in occupancy indefinitely with no possible ground for eviction

Answer B: B. Have a legitimate, legally recognized reason to terminate a tenancy (such as non-payment, lease violation, or owner move-in) rather than terminating without cause

Several Colorado municipalities have enacted 'just cause' eviction protections requiring landlords to have a specified legitimate reason to terminate a tenancy — preventing 'no-fault' evictions where landlords could evict without reason. Colorado passed statewide just cause eviction protections in 2024 (SB 24-094) effective in 2025.
