Today's riddle: Do you know what the two sides of a circle are? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Arvada considers limits on where sex offenders can live in the city (denver7.com) — Arvada city leaders are weighing new rules that would limit where registered sex offenders and sexually violent predators can live, creating buffer zones around schools, playgrounds, and libraries. Existing offenders in Arvada would be grandfathered in, while officials debate whether the proposal truly improves safety or just shifts risks without restricting where offenders can visit.
2. Ethics complaint filed against Arvada Mayor Lauren Simpson (arvadapress.com) — An Arvada resident has filed an ethics complaint accusing Mayor Lauren Simpson of improperly sharing confidential details about a potential buyer for the city-owned Early College of Arvada building, now back on the market. City officials say outside counsel will review the allegations, which stem from a 2025 neighborhood conversation and tie into broader concerns about how Arvada leaders handle executive-session information and ethics standards.
