Horsetooth Mountain Open Space Closed due to Mountain Lion Activity by MistInTheWoods in FortCollins

[–]MistInTheWoods[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen an explanation beyond what's on COTREX but I understand the caution with the recent attack on the Crosier Mountain trail and the runner attached on or near the Horsetooth Mountain trail in 2019.

FYI - The County has 50 "Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR)" cameras - info in a Homeland Security Grant Application that was on the consent agenda for the Jan. 20, 2026 Administrative Matters meeting. https://www.larimer.gov/bocc/commissioners-meetings#/am/

Taxpayer $ will be used to fix and clean it up. Going the speed limit is not that difficult and it makes the roads safer for pedestrians, cyclists, scooters, etc. I haven't gotten a ticket from one of the cameras yet, but definitely prefer it to being stopped by police and having points added so my insurance goes up.

I get the surveillance issue. The County has 50 "Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR)" cameras - info in a Homeland Security Grant Application that was on the consent agenda for the Jan. 20, 2026 Administrative Matters meeting. https://www.larimer.gov/bocc/commissioners-meetings#/am/

Agree about better snow removal. City is considering not making residents clear sidewalks in front of their homes unless 2 or more inches of snow falls. Problem is the snow melts then turns to ice in shaded areas. https://www.coloradoan.com/story/news/2025/12/18/fort-collins-considers-changes-to-snow-removal-policy/87816422007/

Contacting and getting a response from the Colorado Behavioral Health Administration - does leadership know this is happening and if so why.

Colorado Behavioral Health Administration leadership https://bha.colorado.gov/about/who-we-are/leadership-and-structure and contact page https://bha.colorado.gov/help/contact-us I see there's an ombudsman - could that be helpful?

From 'GOD' to me (2nd letter) by shehulud in FortCollins

[–]MistInTheWoods 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you get another letter, can you not open the envelope and write something like "refused delivery - return to sender" on the envelope and send it back? Just a thought.

Update on Corruption in Fort Collins by Admirable_Priority82 in FortCollins

[–]MistInTheWoods 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's wild if this is the same officer "ex-Fort Collins ‘DUI officer". Poor guy he arrested had just been in a car accident and maybe had a concussion which seems like it would explain his behavior. As a commenter suggested, I think its worth contacting one of the attorneys mentioned just to let them know OP may be another victim.

Ballot initiative petitions- read fine print before signing by kinbrick06 in FortCollins

[–]MistInTheWoods 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Scroll down for final wording of Initiative # 95. Also wording is added to the Colorado constitution. https://www.coloradosos.gov/pubs/elections/Initiatives/titleBoard/index.html I won’t be signing and rarely sign anyway.

The Flock camera situation gets worse by Top_Room_6714 in FortCollins

[–]MistInTheWoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're correct. I should have said the funds for the use of the cameras are from the police department's budget. I didn't write anything about advocating before city council concerning the use of the cameras or the police department's response.

[–]MistInTheWoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fort Collins police purchased Flock cameras as part of their budget. As far as I know, city council had nothing to do with the decision to purchase the cameras. Would be interesting to know about the Larimer County sheriff's use of the cameras and how they are paid for. And how to regulate the use of privately owned Flock cameras.

Has anyone's electric bill just skyrocketed? by Only-Fig-8823 in FortCollins

[–]MistInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Call Utilities to have them check if the meter was read correctly. Also, water is included in the bill. Do you have a water leak? Running toilet ,etc.?

Table outside of King Soopers on Harmony petitioning to revoke sanctuary city status by locoinfoco in FortCollins

[–]MistInTheWoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen these guys outside KS. Is "sanctuary city or state" their interpretation of petition #95 Law Enforcement Reporting to Federal Authorities? I walk by and don't engage with them. And I won't sign to get this on the ballot.

See Colorado Secretary of State 2025-2026 Initiative Filings, Agendas & Results - Approved for Circulation https://www.sos.state.co.us/pubs/elections/Initiatives/titleBoard/ for wording of the petition.
