Good morning, Castle Rock.

The National Weather Service’s translation services stopped after its contract with Lilt ended, leaving non-English speakers, including many Spanish speakers, without crucial weather alerts.

Experts warn that this pause in services could put residents at risk during severe weather.

Voters in South Metro Fire Rescue Districts 2, 6 and 7 will cast their ballots this spring for a seven-member board that manages fire services and safety in our community.

Two current board members run unopposed while three candidates vie in District 7—each promising to balance improved services with cost control.

USDA froze funding for the AgWell program that supports mental and physical health for farmers and ranchers in Colorado, New Mexico, and Wyoming, and the Rocky Mountain Farmers Union will shift its budget to keep services running.
