The story of the SCFD and how it evolved and survived three tax elections is summarized in a 1996 Ciruli Associates document titled "Scientific and Cultural Facilities District: Review of Elections." Ciruli Associates managed all three campaigns and remains active in work on behalf of the SCFD and its major cultural institutions.

The report reviews and analyzes the District's three elections: the original 1988 authorization, the 1994 10-year extension, and the 1995 TABOR tax limitation override. Included are reports on the "Basic Principles" of the SCFD, analysis of voting and registration, analysis of county and legislative district voting, and reprints of several newsletters detailing progress of the SCFD.
