You probably just received your mail-in ballot for this fall’s election. I want to make a pitch for one measure in particular, Item 1B.
When asked about ‘quality of life,’ most of us cite great schools or bike trails or open space, but is there any more important to your quality of life than your safety?
Item 1B is the continuation of an existing tax to support the operations of the Larimer County jail system. Not sexy, not exciting, but very important.
To learn more about Item 1B, here are a couple of resources:
