Whether we are commuting to work, taking the Snowstang to the mountains to ski, or riding light rail to a Broncos game, transportation is fundamental to the lives of Coloradans. The transportation issue of Colorado Municipalities magazine features articles on transit-oriented development, innovative approaches to street parking, cuts to federal transit grants, speed cameras, and a municipal law dilemma over state highway maintenance. Drive safe!

Back to Basics is the Colorado Municipal League President’s Initiative for 2025. In a time when the role of local government has never felt more complicated, Back to Basics invites us to focus on the fundamentals. Together, we can strengthen our commitment to ethical government, ensure municipal operations remain clear and accessible, and build communities that reflect our shared values.
