Kalam: Denver’s double standard on immigration policy

Approved, Commentary, gazette.com, Local / / ,

Denver, with its progressive credentials, decided not long ago that it would be a sanctuary city — proudly throwing open its gates to the world’s downtrodden. The rhetoric was lofty: a commitment to diversity, inclusion, and justice for those who had the misfortune of being born on the wrong side of international borders.

However, in reality, the story has been quite different.

From Greeley to Pueblo, Front Range cities still need new water storage

Approved, State, The Colorado Sun / /

When a city must find its water 50 miles away and 1,400 feet underground, in an aquifer whose origins first had to be pegged to the late Cretaceous and the early Paleogene periods, and further delineated between Colorado turf on the surface or Wyoming land just a skosh to the north, while drilling two-way wells at $1 million each on the way to an eventual price tag approaching $400 million, and then filter out dissolved uranium, it would seem a stretch to call this plan the easy way out.
