New “Safe Streets COS” initiative targets school zone safety and traffic crashes

The City of Colorado Springs just officially kicked off “Safe Streets COS**,”** a citywide effort to reduce crashes and hit a big goal: cutting serious injury and fatal accidents by 35% by 2035.

The city is hitting high-risk areas with a mix of new engineering and smarter enforcement:

School Zone Upgrades: Better infrastructure at places like Mann Middle School to force slower speeds.

High-Risk Corridors: Fixing dangerous intersections and trail crossings citywide.

Enforcement: CSPD is pairing up with the city for red-light programs and speed safety cameras in crash-prone zones.

The City launched an interactive Traffic Safety Dashboard where you can actually see crash trends and safety data for your specific neighborhood.

What are some areas in the city where more enforcement is needed?

Water Heater

I have a preferred HVAC and plumbing company that I have used since I moved into my home.

The water heater went out and I called them for a replacement and they said $3600.

I called another company that comes highly recommended. They said $2500.

What a difference! Make sure you’re calling around!

No cost grocery store partially funded by thrift store

CM Nancy Henjum and I stopped by Crossfire Ministries no cost grocery store AND thrift store today.

Did you know that proceeds of the thrift store go towards funding the grocery store? What an amazing business model.

I scored some pink suede boots (never worn) for $9. With this unpredictable weather, maybe I’ll wear them next week 😜

Did you know we have a LGBTQIA chorus?

Out Loud is a member of the Gay and Lesbian Association of Choruses (GALA), an association that represents members of choruses. They are celebrating their 20 yr anniversary with two performances - Friday & Saturday.

I hope to see you at the Saturday performance.

It’s a City Council Work Session and we will get a presentation on a review of concerns involving an elected official.

To be clear, that elected official is the Mayor.

I’d love to hear resident thoughts on the findings, conclusions, and recommendations.
