                ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS--AUGUST 21, 1995

     The enclosed proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors or Trustees of
Voyageur Arizona Municipal Income Fund, Inc. ("Arizona Fund"), Voyageur Colorado
Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc. ("Colorado Fund"), Voyageur Florida Insured
Municipal Income Fund ("Florida Fund"), Voyageur Minnesota Municipal Income
Fund, Inc. ("Minnesota Fund"), Voyageur Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc.
("Minnesota Fund II") and Voyageur Minnesota Municipal Income Fund III, Inc.
("Minnesota Fund III") in connection with the annual meeting of shareholders of
each Fund to be held on August 21, 1995, and at any adjournments thereof. The
costs of solicitation, including the cost of preparing and mailing the Notice of
Meeting of Shareholders and this Proxy Statement, will be allocated among all of
the Funds, and the mailing will take place on approximately July 14, 1995.
Representatives of the Funds may solicit proxies on behalf of management of the
Funds by means of mail, telephone or personal calls. All references in this
Proxy Statement to the Funds' Directors or Board of Directors shall also mean
the Trustees or Board of Trustees, as applicable, of Florida Fund.

     A proxy may be revoked before the meeting by giving written notice of
revocation to the Secretary of the applicable Fund, or at the meeting prior to
voting. Unless revoked, properly executed proxies in which choices are not
specified by the shareholders will be voted "for" each item for which no choice
is specified, in accordance with the recommendation of the applicable Fund's
Board of Directors. In instances where choices are specified by the shareholders
in the proxy, those proxies will be voted or the vote will be withheld in
accordance with the shareholder's choice. With regard to the election of
directors, votes may be cast in favor or withheld; votes that are withheld will
be excluded entirely from the vote and will have no effect. Abstentions may be
specified on all proposals other than the election of directors and will be
counted as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares is
present at the meeting with respect to the item on which the abstention is
noted, but will be counted as a vote "against" such item. Under the Rules of the
New York Stock Exchange, each of the proposals being considered at the meeting
is considered a "non-discretionary" proposal, which means that brokers who hold
Fund shares in street name for customers are authorized to vote on each such
proposal on behalf of their customers with or without specific voting
instructions from such customers. Should any other matters properly come before
the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named as proxies in the enclosed
proxy to act upon them according to their best judgment.

     Only shareholders of record of each Fund on June 23, 1995, may vote at the
meeting or any adjournment thereof. As of June 23, 1995, there were issued and
outstanding preferred and common shares, each with a par value of $.01, of each
Fund as follows:

                                                      Common Shares    Preferred
                                                                        Shares

       Arizona Fund..................................   2,982,200          500
       Colorado Fund.................................   4,837,100          800

       Minnesota Fund III............................   1,837,200          300

Each shareholder of a Fund is entitled to one vote for each share held. None of
the matters to be presented at the meeting will entitle any shareholder to
cumulative voting or appraisal rights. No person, to the knowledge of Fund
management, was the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the voting shares of any
class of any of the Funds as of July 7, 1995.

     Voyageur Fund Managers, Inc. (the "Adviser") serves as the Funds'
investment adviser. The address of the Adviser is 90 South Seventh Street,

* Denotes Directors who are "interested persons" (as defined by the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the Funds. Mr. Madison is considered an
interested person of the Funds as a result of his affiliation with a
broker-dealer that has distributed shares of the Funds.

     As of June 23, 1995, the officers and directors of each Fund as a group
beneficially owned less than 1% of each class of outstanding shares of such
Fund.

     The Board of Directors of each Fund has established an Audit Committee
consisting of Ms. Johnson and Messrs. Madison, McNamara, Nelson, Odegard and
Frame, who serves as chairperson. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995,
the Audit Committee met two times. The Funds do not have nominating or
compensation committees.

     The functions to be performed by the Audit Committee are to recommend
annually to the Board a firm of independent certified public accountants to
audit the books and records of the Funds for the ensuing year; to monitor that
firm's performance; to review with the firm the scope and results of each audit
and determine the need, if any, to extend audit procedures; to confer with the
firm and representatives of the Funds on matters concerning the Funds' financial
statements and reports including the appropriateness of its accounting practices
and of its financial controls and procedures; to evaluate the independence of
the firm; to review procedures to safeguard portfolio securities; to review the
purchase by the Funds from the firm of non-audit services; to review all fees
paid to the firm; and to facilitate communications between the firm and the
Funds' officers and Directors.

     For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, there were four meetings of the
Board of Directors of each Fund. All Directors, except Mr. Madison, attended at
least 75% of the aggregate of the meetings of the Board of Directors and
meetings of committees of which they were members that were held while they were
serving on the Board of Directors or on such committee.

     No compensation is paid by the Funds to any officers or Directors, except
that each Director who is not an employee of the Adviser or any of its
affiliates, receives an annual fee of $24,000 for serving as a director of all
of the investment companies for which the Adviser acts as investment adviser,
plus a $500 fee for each special in-person meeting attended by such Director.
(Ms. Johnson currently serves as a director solely of the closed-end Funds which
are the subject of this Proxy Statement.) These fees are allocated among such
investment companies based on their relative average net asset values. In
addition, each Director who is not an employee of the Adviser or any of its
affiliates is reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with attending
meetings.

     The following table sets forth the aggregate compensation received by each
Director (other than Ms. Johnson) from each Fund during the fiscal year ended
March 31, 1995, as well as the total compensation received by each such Director
from the Funds and all other open-end and closed-end investment companies
managed by the Adviser (the "Fund Complex") during the calendar year ended
December 31, 1994. Ms. Johnson did not receive any compensation from the Funds
during these time periods.

*   Mr. Harley Danforth, who retired as a Director of the Funds in January 1995,
    is acting as a consultant to the Directors through January 1996. For his
    services, he will receive a fee of $20,000 allocated among all of the
    investment companies for which the Adviser acts as investment adviser.

**  Consists of 16 open-end and closed-end investment companies managed by the
    Adviser, including the Funds. Each director included in the table serves on
    the board of each such open-end and closed-end investment company.

     The vote of a majority of the preferred shares of each Fund represented at
the meeting, provided at least a quorum (33-1/3% of such shares entitled to
vote) is represented in person or by proxy, is sufficient for the election of
the above nominees listed under Table I. The vote of a majority of the preferred
shares and the common shares of each Fund represented at the meeting, provided
at least a quorum (majority of the outstanding preferred shares and common
shares, voting together as a single class) is represented in person or by proxy,
is sufficient for the election of the above nominees listed under Table II.
Unless otherwise instructed, the proxies will vote, on behalf of the holders of
the preferred shares, for the two nominees listed under Table I, and on behalf
of the holders of the preferred shares and common shares voting together as a
single class, for the four nominees listed under Table II. THE ADVISER AND THE
DIRECTORS EACH RECOMMEND THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS OF EACH FUND VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE
FOREGOING NOMINEES TO SERVE AS DIRECTORS OF EACH FUND.

                                  PROPOSAL TWO
                          RATIFICATION OR REJECTION OF
                         INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

     The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), provides
that every registered investment company shall be audited at least once each
year by independent public accountants selected by a majority of the directors
of the investment company who are not interested persons of the investment
company or its investment adviser. The 1940 Act requires that the selection be
submitted for ratification or rejection by the shareholders at their next annual
meeting following the selection.

     The Directors, including a majority who are not interested persons of the
Adviser or the Funds, have selected KPMG Peat Marwick LLP to be each Fund's
independent public accountants for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1996. KPMG
Peat Marwick LLP has no direct or material indirect financial interest in the
Funds or in the Adviser, other than receipt of fees for services to the Funds.
KPMG Peat Marwick LLP also serves as the independent public accountants for each
of the other investment companies managed by the Adviser. KPMG Peat Marwick LLP
has been the independent public accountants for each Fund since its inception.

     Representatives of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP are expected to be present at the
meeting. Such representatives will be given the opportunity to make a statement
to the shareholders if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to
respond to any questions that may be raised at the meeting.

     The Directors recommend that the shareholders of each Fund vote in favor of
