Why aren't communities notified when other types of sex offenders are released?

Currently, the Colorado legislature only authorizes community notification when the highest risk sex offenders enter the community. The sex offender registry lists convicted sex offenders who have registered as required with local law enforcement in each community. Every citizen has the right to request registry information from their local law enforcement agency.
