Local Editor Rips Council for Lack of News of Council Election

"City Council Members, 

I am shocked the the city did not find this important to include in their last Citizen or to submit to the local community newspaper.  I would think it important to solicit as much community participation as possible?  Does the city have any plan for communicating this information to its residents?

Also, three months ago (May 10) was the last update on the city's "Latest News" section of the website. Is there any way to have more current information posted on the city's website or disseminated to local media?"

Council Approves Additional Funding to Pave Streets, Support for Library

Tonight Council increased funding for streets to $1.8 million!  This is a great step forward for our community.  Construction will begin shortly, and could last three months.  The approval at the last meeting was for $425,000.  An additional $1,375,000 was added tonight.  Council also took action to amend its 2011 budget to reflect this work on community streets.  This expenditure will address most pavement issues on Monarch and the Parkway.

Council also voted $25,000 to help jump start fund raising for the local library.  If you would like to write a check for this worthy cause, the address is Castle Pines Library, 7437 Village Square Drive, 80108.  Every little bit helps, so please support this effort if you can.

Let's all congratulate council members for their votes for these two very worthwhile community efforts!

Please Show Support For Council's Street Resurfacing

Location of the meeting is 7404 Yorkshire Drive. 7 p.m. start.

Passage of this measure will be a bold step forward for our community. Pricing appears attractive. Repairs are clearly necessary. This action is timely.
