Opinion | Flynn: Aurora Water’s plan for Wild Horse Reservoir should be rejected
One of my favorite water jokes is, What does the fish say when it hits the wall?. And that is exactly what I was thinking as I read Aurora Water’s application for additional Western Slope water. “Damn!”. Colorado’s rivers are facing unprecedented challenges. Climate change, prolonged drought, growing...

Colfax revitalization needs more than a vision | Michael A. Hancock

After Denver foie gras ban, animal rights group plans municipal push
An obscure animal rights group turned a fight over foie gras into a successful Denver ballot campaign to ban an uncommon seasonal delicacy. Why it matters: It's a big win for Pro-Animal Colorado, which now shifts its focus to backing animal rights candidates in next April's municipal election. Context: The measure banning the sale of the dish made through force-feeding ducks or geese led by 36 points, the most recent preliminary results show. The measure doesn't affect personal possession or consumption , or foie gras produced without force-feeding. Threat level: Foie gras is available in fewer than 20 local restaurants. Still, the win shows Denverites care about animal welfare, with results exceeding expectations, Pro-Animal Colorado spokesperson Dani Withaar tells us. Withaar pushed back on suggestions that it's a niche issue: "It really represents something much larger, which is the way that animals are treated and our food system, and especially on factory farms." She credited hundreds of volunteers who educated the public about foie gras production — including campaign signs with images of force-fed animals. Between the lines: Two years ago, the same group unsuccessfully ran two measures to close Denver's only slaughterhouse and end fur sales and manufacturing. The

Where Denver homebuyers have the upper hand
Data: Redfin Housing Market API (September 2026 data, released Oct. 12); ZIP-level figures cover a rolling three-month period ending September 2026. Graphic: Jim Sergent/Axios Whether Denver's housing market favors buyers or sellers depends largely on where you're looking, according to recent Redfin data analyzed by Axios. Why it matters: Location has always mattered in real estate. Now, it could determine who's calling the shots. The big picture: Buyers are gaining leverage in 52% of Denver-area ZIP codes tracked by Redfin, compared with 29% favoring sellers. Zoom in: The divide is especially stark in two ZIP codes: Lakewood's 80226: More than half of listings (57.1%) saw price cuts in October, up about 20 percentage points from a year earlier. Littleton's 80127: Homes sold 16 days faster than a year earlier, while the share of listings with price cuts fell nearly 5 percentage points. The bottom line: In Denver's uneven housing market, a little flexibility on location could give buyers a lot more bargaining power.
