Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office Terminates Law Enforcement Services for Julesburg Due to Lack of Intergovernmental Agreement

Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office Terminates Law Enforcement Services for Julesburg Due to Lack of Intergovernmental Agreement

The Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office (SCSO) has announced that as of midnight on September 8, 2026, it will no longer provide law enforcement services to the Town of Julesburg, Colorado. This decision comes after eight months of unsuccessful attempts to establish an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the SCSO and the town. Undersheriff Scott Brettell stated that the office is transitioning from past mismanagement to a more professional and functional department, which includes formal contracts with municipalities. Sheriff Koby Quayle emphasized that providing unfunded services to Julesburg is no longer sustainable and puts the county at financial risk. The Sheriff's Office is funded for 80 hours per week in unincorporated areas, leaving 86 hours uncovered. Julesburg residents are advised to direct their law enforcement needs to the Julesburg Town Hall, with options to re-establish their police department or contract with the Colorado Rangers. The SCSO has indicated it will still attempt to send a de...

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Begins Construction on Fourth Colorado Temple

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Begins Construction on Fourth Colorado Temple

Construction is set to begin on the fourth Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints temple in Colorado, located in northeast Colorado Springs. The 18.6-acre site at Flying Horse Club Drive and Barossa Valley Road has been prepared for a groundbreaking ceremony scheduled for September 12. Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade and Colorado Congressman Jeff Crank are expected to attend the event, alongside religious leaders, political figures, education officials, business representatives, military personnel, and local congregants. The project, which includes a 33,000-square-foot temple, a separate meeting house, and a maintenance building, is anticipated to take three to four years to complete. The temple's design will feature natural granite aggregate and artistic glass, inspired by Pikes Peak. This development follows the church's announcement in 2023 to build a new temple in Colorado Springs, a plan that faced initial appeals regarding the height of its 140-foot spire and illumination plans, which were ...

Record Bear Attacks in Colorado Prompt Calls for Improved Waste Management and Public Awareness

Record Bear Attacks in Colorado Prompt Calls for Improved Waste Management and Public Awareness

Colorado is experiencing a record year for bear attacks and incidents, with 294 bears euthanized as of August 31, nearly four times the five-year average. This surge in bear activity is attributed to a combination of factors, including a natural period of hyperphagia (intense feeding before hibernation) and a severe food shortage in higher elevations caused by historic heat and drought. As a result, hungry bears are venturing into more populated areas, leading to increased human-bear conflicts. Cassandre Venumière-Lefebvre, a PhD candidate at Colorado State University researching human-black bear coexistence, highlights that while mountain towns often have bear-proof trash cans, communities in less traditional bear habitats, like Denver, lack such infrastructure. Many waste management companies do not offer bear-resistant cans, making garbage a readily accessible food source for bears. This lack of secure attractants and public awareness is contributing to bears becoming habituated to human environments, i...

Colorado Voters to Consider 14 Statewide Ballot Measures in November Election

Colorado Voters to Consider 14 Statewide Ballot Measures in November Election

Colorado voters will face a comprehensive ballot in November, featuring 14 statewide measures that address a wide range of issues, including criminal justice, taxation, and social policies. This number of measures matches the 2024 election for the most in recent state history, though it falls short of the 1912 record of 32 measures. Key initiatives include Initiative No. 85, which proposes making the sale of any amount of fentanyl a Class 1 felony with potential prison sentences of up to 32 years, and mandating substance use treatment for those convicted of possessing up to 1 gram of fentanyl. Another significant measure, Initiative No. 95, seeks to amend the state constitution to require law enforcement to notify federal immigration officials when charging individuals who are in the country illegally for violent crimes or repeat felonies. This practice has been prohibited under state law since 2019. Additionally, Initiative No. 108 aims to establish mandatory life sentences for individuals convicted of se...
