• Niwot voters to decide on creating a town government (kdvr.com) — Niwot residents will vote in November on whether to incorporate as a town, which could bring a mayor, town council, and new local control over roads, zoning, and taxes. The proposal includes property and sales tax increases plus a roadwork bond, with supporters and opponents sharply divided over costs and community impact.
