📰 News we're reading
• Breckenridge forms new mobility, parking advisory committee to address congestion, pedestrian improvements and more (summitdaily.com) — Breckenridge is creating a new Mobility & Parking Advisory Committee to give residents and businesses more say over congestion, parking, and safer walking and biking around town. The group will meet monthly, guide improvements to Free Ride transit, wayfinding, and Park Avenue/Main Street traffic, and include diverse industry and Spanish-speaking representation, though it won't directly control funding. 
• Breckenridge water treatment plant rehabilitation could cost up to $70 million as design progresses (summitdaily.com) — Breckenridge's Gary Roberts Water Treatment Plant overhaul could now cost up to $70 million, as detailed design reveals more extensive work on the aging, leak-prone facility. Town staff say two functioning plants are already essential to meet peak demand, and ongoing studies will shape how to finance upgrades, potential water rate changes, and long‑term capacity for local growth and conservation.
• Colorado Supreme Court dismisses lawsuit filed by injured snowboarder against Vail Resorts (durangoherald.com) — A recent Colorado Supreme Court decision has ended a Breckenridge ski area snowboarder's lawsuit against Vail Resorts, after justices ruled a later-signed Epic Pass waiver blocked his claims. The closely watched 4-3 ruling clarifies how powerful these pass waivers can be for incidents at Breckenridge and other Colorado resorts, and may shape future safety and liability disputes on the slopes.
