Sources say the governor will issue the call on Thursday for the Colorado General Assembly to convene for a special session, which is slated for Aug. 26, 27 and 28 .

If the special session takes place, it would be the second time in less than a year that Gov. Jared Polis would have convened such a session to tackle property taxes.

Proposed initiatives would significantly decrease local governments' revenue.

A compromise would provide certainty to both sides.

Proponents wouldn't have to spend money to persuade people to vote for or against the two measures.

To critics, a compromise opens the possibility of tax cuts that wouldn't be as deep as what Propositions 108 and 50 seek.
