The Colorado Independent Congressional and Legislative Redistricting Commissions were established by Amendments Y and Z in 2018 to draw Colorado's congressional and state legislative districts.  Congressional District 8 was added in 2021 https://redistricting.colorado.gov/


Regarding the newly added Congressional District 8, this is how I believe the Colorado Republican Committee (CRC) bylaws SHOULD be interpreted:

 

CRC Bylaws Article XVI
Section F. Effects of Reapportionment.

1. Following the addition of a (NEW CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT), the party central committees for each such NEW (DISTRICT) shall be called to meet for the purpose of electing a chairman, vice-chairman, and secretary, selecting a vacancy committee and adopting bylaws – (FOR THE NEW DISTRICT).  The call (was) issued by the following party officers:
a. For a single county… (does not apply to the NEW DISTRICT CD8)
b. For (NEW) multi-county districts (CD 8) - by the current presiding officer of the county party of the county with the largest portion of the disrict’s [sic] population, according to the last federal census, or his designee, after consultation with the current chairmen of other counties wholly or partially within that (NEW) district.
c. If no call is issued… (doesn’t apply.)

2. The person calling the (NEW DISTRICT) meeting presides until pro tem chairman is elected...

3. The (NEW DISTRICT) meeting shall be governed by… (CRC) bylaws, (Appendix B)…

4. The (NEW DISTRICT) meeting may be held in person, in an electronic format, or…

5. In the 1st year after the boundaries are changed (Reapportionment, with the addition of CD 8), if the (NEW CD 8) district central committee has not been organized forty days before the date of the precinct caucuses, the central committee of the county with the largest portion of the population according to the last federal census (IN THE NEW DISTRICT) shall adopt rules for representation and apportion the number of delegates. (SO THAT THE NEW DISTRICT HAS REPRESENTATION IN EVERY APPROPRIATE DISTRICT AND THE STATE,) The chair of said county (THE LARGEST COUNTY IN THE NEW DISTRICT), after due consultation with the chairs of the other counties having precincts within the (NEW) district, shall issue the call for the (NEW) district(‘s) assembly and, if the (NEW) district central committee has not been organized fifteen days prior to the assembly, (THE CHAIRMAN OF THE LARGEST COUNTY IN THE NEW DISTRICT SHALL) preside over its meeting. 
(Note: This subsection does not apply to CD8, as they have been organized in time for caucuses, and it clearly doesn’t apply to every District in the state.)


The Call was correctly issued for the Organizational Meeting for CD8 and it was held on Thursday, December 16, 2021.  
HERE are the Minutes from the meeting.

Following is the letter from the new Congressional District 8 Chairman, Anil Mathai, with copies of the .pdf files he attached to the email linked to the PS paragraph:
