Dave Ratner, formerly of Creative Law Network, Moves to New Law Firm
I’ve got major news to share: I’ve joined Fairfield and Woods, a full-service law firm that has been serving the Rocky Mountain West since 1934. I’m still doing the work I love, practicing entertainment, intellectual property, and business law for creative people and businesses. The difference is that I now get to do it with a bigger team, a deeper bench, and a lot more expertise under the same roof. I’m excited for what’s next!

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.

Colorado voters approve transit tax despite economy
(The Center Square) - Colorado voters approved a sales tax increase to fund a transit project that could cost the state over $1 billion in gross domestic product over the next 10 years. Residents in the Front Range Passenger Rail District voted 56% to 44% in favor of Ballot Issue 7A, which would create a 0.33% sales tax for the district, including 31 cities such as Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins, Pueblo and Colorado Springs. The Nov. 3 ballot initiative is expected to raise an estimated $295 million annually for the Front Range Passenger Rail District. The extra tax revenue will help the public agency expand its starter rail route between Denver and Fort Collins to Colorado Springs and Pueblo while increasing train frequency across the corridor. The Denver-to-Fort Collins route is expected to start in 2029, while the others are anticipated to begin in 2032. Sal Pace, general manager of the Front Range Passenger Rail District, said Colorado is “one of the most congested states in the country,” especially in the Denver metropolitan area. “On average, people are losing two entire full work weeks every single year being stuck in traffic,” he told The Center Square. The new project will

Aurora Metro District Exceeded Debt Limit; Colorado Audit Flags 32 Districts
A review of Colorado metro districts surfaced two separate concerns: Wheatlands Metropolitan District exceeded its approved debt limit, while a broader audit found that at least 32 districts missed certain required filings in 2024 and 2025. The audit examined 16 districts in detail, including two in Aurora, and prompted state lawmakers to call for tighter oversight of a system that touches roughly one in five Coloradans.
