The rollout of the Keep Colorado Wild Pass is not going as smoothly as planned. Colorado Parks and Wildlife is hoping state lawmakers will give the agency a $2.2 million cash infusion to cover unanticipated costs in the agency’s campaign to sway vehicle owners to not opt out of the additional $29 fee with their annual registration.

With a plan to get the majority of its power from renewable energy by 2026, Xcel Energy Colorado on Tuesday celebrated the completion of one of the projects that will help realize that goal — a 300-turbine wind farm that sprawls across five counties on the Eastern Plains.

It is the largest wind farm in the state and the first large-scale wind farm owned and...
Colorado received nearly $66 billion in federal pandemic assistance over the past two years, a river of money that made its way to every corner of the state — from tourist attractions high in the mountains to large universities and hospitals along the Front Range down to tiny Main Street diners that dot the Eastern Plains. The Denver Post examined more than 367,000 loans, grants and awards from multiple federal agencies in a first-of-its-kind analysis tracking how federal dollars filtered thei...
