There's some in Fraser calling foul on the St. Louis Landing (formerly the Victoria Village), which the city has promised will bring roughly 200 affordable homes to the rural community that's in desperate need of help with that very problem. The city was able to purchase the land in 2022, thanks to public funding options like grants, and has since bid out the project and has just recently broken ground.

The Colorado Department of Transportation says springtime in Colorado and all the moisture that comes with it is problematic when it comes to rock slides and rockfalls along roadways in the mountain corridor. The persistent freeze-thaw cycle during the season opens cracks and loosens rocks, increasing the probability for slides.

Frankly this feels more like hopeful thinking more than a fact. Some of the wolves taken to Colorado from Oregon in the first batch did have previous history with depredations, but were cleared by CPW. So, either lessons learned or...? I hope CPW is right!
As the wolves lived in a region in B.C. free from livestock, there are no concerns about their involvement in repeated depredations. https://t.co/JkUmyrr73j
There is is, for all those wondering (or playing amateur detective). More wolves in Colorado
We just concluded our second year of wolf restoration efforts, including the release of 15 wolves from British Columbia, Canada, as well as the five members of the original Copper Creek Pack 🐺 https://t.co/sYgEe7aJd3
