The Town of Carbondale has narrowed its search for a new town manager down to four finalists: Ryan Hyland, former Silverthorne town manager; Shannon Kelly-Fong, current assistant city manager for Lacey, Washington; Sara Ott former Aspen city manager; and Kara Silbernagel, current deputy county manager for Pitkin County. The Town will host a meet-and-greet with the candidates on Thursday, June 12, from 5:30 to 7:30pm at the Third Street Center.

Nutrient Farms
The Garfield County Planning Commission voted unanimously on May 28 to recommend that Garfield County Commissioners deny three rezoning applications, which means the 1,136-acre proposed Nutrient Farms Planned Unit Development has failed round one of the county approval process. Citizen concerns include “weeds, water and neighborhood,” as one planning commissioner put it. According to Friends of Canyon Creek, the proposed development threatens to dry up the creek. Nutrient Farms has existed on the property, south of the Colorado River, since 2018 as an organic farm and livestock producer. Over 100 citizens who oppose the development have made their voices heard at several meetings. But Danny Teodoru, attorney for the applicant said this isn’t the end. “We’re not going anywhere,” he warned. “We’re not running away from this.”

Moose management
Colorado Parks and Wildlife is reminding the public to be aware of potentially aggressive cow moose after responding to three recent attacks. Cow moose give birth to calves in the late spring and early summer and can be more aggressive toward perceived threats to their young during this time. Most moose conflicts involve dogs. When recreating near riparian or willow habitats, dogs should be kept on-leash. If a calf is spotted, distance should be maintained.

Summer meals
The Summer Meals Program, funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is offering free seven-day meal kits to youth 18 and younger with no identification or proof of income or enrollment necessary. Local pick-up sites on Thursdays from 4 to 6:30pm, June 16 through July 17, include the Carbondale Middle School, Basalt Middle School and Glenwood Springs High School.

Boulder attack
The United States Department of Justice has charged Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national who overstayed his visa, with a federal hate crime after he attacked a peaceful, regularly scheduled demonstration on Pearl Street in Boulder advocating for the release of hostages held by Hamas. Eight victims, ages 52 to 88 were hospitalized. “Boulder has recovered before from acts of violence and we will again recover,” stated Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn. “I urge this community to come together. Now is not the time to be divisive.” Nearly 50 Palestinians were killed by the Israeli military at designated aid centers in Gaza over the past week, according to Red Cross officials. At least 54,510 Palestinians have been killed since the war began when Hamas killed an estimated 1,139 people in Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

Highway 133 chip sealing
The Colorado Department of Transportation is chip sealing Highway 133 from Carbondale to McClure Pass. Motorists should anticipate 20-minute delays during construction hours, Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm, through mid-August.

Hot Springs scholarship
Glenwood Hot Springs Resort’s $16,000 Higher Education Scholarship was presented to Glenwood Springs High School graduate Matthew Helms this year. He plans to study integrative physiology at the University of Colorado Boulder.

Spring Valley update
As reported by Aspen Daily News, Georgia-based Storied Development has withdrawn its name from an application with Garfield County to amend the Spring Valley Ranch PUD to develop 577 residential units, a 100-acre golf course and a private ski area on 6,000 acres above Colorado Mountain College’s Spring Valley campus. The property owner, Spring Valley Holdings LLC, is set to replace Storied Development on the application.
