Business groups warn graduated income tax will burden small businesses

A national organization said Colorado’s decision to pass a graduated income tax structure — which translates to a tax hike for businesses and residents earning $500,000 or more — means tough choices ahead for small businesses. In a statement, the National Federation of Independent Business called the passage of Amendment 87 “disappointing for Colorado’s small business owners […]

Energy analyst: Data center moratoriums scare off developers

(The Center Square) - As more Colorado local governments implement temporary bans on data centers, developers are better off looking elsewhere, according to an energy policy analyst. Sarah Montalbano, who researches energy and natural resources at the Denver-based Independence Institute, said these recent decisions by Fort Collins and Littleton are “coming out of a broader trend in Colorado where cities and municipalities” are deciding their own rules about data centers. This week, Fort Collins and Littleton both approved a six-month temporary moratorium on data centers. At least 16 local governments in Colorado have adopted temporary moratoriums on new data centers, including Denver, the state’s largest city. The moratorium gives the impression that Colorado doesn’t want data center developers, Montalbano explained. Ginny Sawyer, Fort Collins City Manager Kelly DiMartino’s assistant, told The Center Square that the city council implemented the moratorium to give it “time to pause potential applications and see what regulations [it] might want to put in place.” Fort Collins, a city of around 175,000 people, raised concerns about data centers’ use of water and electricity, as well as lighting and noise, she noted. The city’s ordinance says the data center moratorium lasts until April 6, 2027. Sawyer said

This Englewood Craft Store Is Where Colorado Sewists Walk In For Thread And Leave With A Class Schedule

Most people head to a fabric shop with a short list, maybe a spool of thread and a few fat quarters. Then they spot the classroom, the longarm quilting machines and a sign-up sheet, and the short list quietly grows. On a busy stretch of South Broadway in Englewood, one shop has turned that kind of quick errand into a Front Range habit.

Colorado Farm Markets Worth Visiting Before Thanksgiving For Fresh Holiday Ingredients

10 Outback Steakhouse restaurants close in 4 states as franchisee files Chapter 11

Out West Restaurant Group closed 10 Outback Steakhouse restaurants in Arizona, California, Colorado, and Nevada before filing for Chapter 11. Few moments unsettle a regular diner faster than pulling into a familiar parking lot and finding the windows dark and the doors locked. Casual chain restaurants hold a particular place in American routines. Families book them for birthdays, teams pile in after weekend games, and tired couples treat them as dependable fallbacks when nobody wants to cook. A shuttered location erases one of those habits without warning. The loss leaves nearby guests wondering whether their own favorite spot will go next. Workers lose the shifts they counted on. Each closing ripples past the people who used to order dinner there.

Colorado State University has agreed to pay President Amy Parsons $1.1 million for her resignation, the Coloradoan learned through an open-records request. Parsons formally announced her resignation Oct. 28 , six days after she and CSU System Chancellor Tony Frank signed a resignation settlement that requires the payment to Parsons be made, “minus any necessary withholdings,” by no later than Jan. 5, 2027.
