• Colorado State Senate District 8 candidate Q&A (denverpost.com) — A Frisco-based state senator running in District 8 outlines priorities of lowering costs, protecting Colorado’s natural resources, and amplifying rural voices, while emphasizing bipartisan work on housing and water. His opponent from Black Hawk focuses on economic growth, lower taxes and fees, and defending Western values, giving Frisco voters a clear contrast as they prepare their ballots.
   

• Prop 137 sparks debate around wildfire mitigation, TABOR refunds and state budget (summitdaily.com) — Wildfire mitigation work already underway on hillsides above Frisco is a key example in the debate over Colorado’s Proposition 137, which would redirect some TABOR refunds to conservation and fire-risk projects. Supporters say it funds science-based thinning and prescribed burns, while critics worry about reduced refunds, budget constraints, and whether large-scale logging truly protects communities compared with home hardening.
