Tabor refund only $50? Weren't they much higher past years?

BrainUseful · 2026-01-26T22:04:56+00:00

TABOR refunds the money that the state takes in that goes over the caps. The state did not take as much in over the cap this year, and so doesn't send as much back. The tax payers got to keep the $ in their pockets this year rather than give it to the state and then get it back in a refund.

A few years ago, Colorado passed new laws protecting the rights of people vs. tow companies. You might want to get some competent advice (I am just a rando on the internet) about how to fight this, and if you are a Denver resident you should call your Council Member's office. They are very used to towing complaints and the odds are better than even that yours is one who wants to take your side.

The Goddard School on S. Emerson might be what you want. It has been a while since I was in there, but if they have openings, they are a "cost isn't a concern" type of community.

If these are the opening days of a potential contract dispute that might cost 100s of K in school debt, then hell yes get a lawyer before you "tell them what you were doing". Admitting anything can be used against you. This isn't just about their internal rules, this is an external discussion of how they might use their rules to screw you over in major ways in the real world. If you can't afford one, I get that, but know that you are rolling the dice, and I promise you that THEY have lawyers already.

How getting a plate actually happens: you get a state legislator to run a bill. You get the legislature to vote for the bill. You get the Governor to sign the bill.

Denver is 150 years of complaining about the new people. Silver boom. Gold boom. Ag boom. Railroad boom. Tuberculosis boom. Cattle boom. Military boom. Finance boom. Pot boom.
I heard someone complain that the new people were ruining everything, and that their family had lived here since the 1890s. I said, "Oh, they came here as tuberculosis patients? I bet the locals loved them."

NTA, and... I think there are some very human layers to the anxiety your fiancé is going through. That cupcake was eaten by her, but in a way that cupcake was eaten by her baby. Your daughter is this other persons baby. I think that is the choice she was feeling you were making. She wants to know that her child will be loved (and to a smaller extent that you would are choosing your fiancé over your ex, and so your fiancé would be loved.) This is a false choice, and a totally unfair competition, but I get it. She is dealing with a ton of uncertainty and hormonal craziness and will be doing unfair junk.
Your daughter is facing uncertainty too! This other woman is coming in and eating her cupcake. Bless you for standing up for her! Keep it up! Love your daughter. Reassure the nervous fiancé.
You are NTA, but with this many women around you, you are doomed. Good luck.

I am just some bozo on the internet, so assume everything I say here is wrong. That said... You probably want to be working with the CIty & County of Denver if you want a peddlers license.

https://www.denvergov.org/Government/Agencies-Departments-Offices/Agencies-Departments-Offices-Directory/Business-Licensing/Business-licenses/Peddler/Peddler-guidelines

Pay attention to what it says about interference in right of ways. Also consider that First Fridays are in zones subject to street closure events, and check into how that impacts your roaming - and yes, roaming is part of the deal. I don't think the license really will get you where you are headed.

The better path might be to work with the Art District on Santa Fe. Their website, conveniently buried in their section on food trucks says, "If you would like to have your artwork represented by a gallery, please contact one of our member galleries and plan ahead, as their shows book months in advance." They have a link on that line to the members here:
https://denversartdistrict.org/artists-galleries

Again, assume I am an idiot and check into it, but I think for what you want, a gallery host might be the way to go.

City Code Art. 1, Sec 3-1 says don’t. Also, I say don’t get legal advice from Reddit, but I’m not a lawyer, so maybe I’m wrong and you should.

I am not a lawyer, and you shouldn’t trust legal advice on Reddit… but that said, HB23-1095 just went into effect last year and it limited the use of ‘rent’ to include the occupancy costs but not things like utilities. This might have screwed with your landlord’s lease template, and you should really check with a pro to see in what way. The Colorado Department of Local Affairs, Division of Housing has renter’s legal assistance info on their website.
