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.

See Bison From Your Car Window On This 11-Mile Wildlife Drive Just Outside Denver
A herd of bison can block your view of the Denver skyline, and it happens closer to downtown than most people expect. There is no long mountain drive, no I-70 traffic, and no entrance fee standing between you and a shaggy, slow-moving traffic jam. Prairie dogs pop up beside the pavement, mule deer graze in the distance, and the whole loop can be done without ever leaving your seat.

PERRY: After 6 years of trying, voters finally cure Colorado’s Boebert affliction
It could have started anywhere, but you know it just had to start in Aurora, what I’ve long called the best news town in the nation. On Sept. 19, 2019, Republican Lauren Boebert got her first claim to fame on the steps of Aurora City Hall.
