Most Denver pet owners don’t license their dogs or cats, but city hopes more will comply

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:38:50 GMT

Denver pet owners are largely unaware — or choose to ignore — the city’s longstanding requirement that they purchase an annual license for their companions, with a minority of dog and cat parents complying with city ordinance.Dogs and cats must be licensed once they’re at least six months old and within 30 days of residing in Denver, according to the city regulations. Because it’s a requirement, pet owners in violation can receive warnings and even fines, although that’s rare.More than 9,500 pet owners had obtained licenses in 2023 as of September, the Denver Department of Public Health and Environment said.That’s a slim proportion of the city’s four-legged population, which Denver Parks and Recreation estimates at more than 150,000 for dogs alone. That puts Denver below the typical compliance rate for pet licensing nationally, which Lt. Josh Rolfe with Denver Animal Protection says is around 15-20% of animals in counties or cities tha...

No-strings cash provided to homeless people through pilot program has saved lives, participants say

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:38:50 GMT

Cash is freedom. That has been Denver Basic Income Project founder Mark Donovan’s refrain as he led a program that provided more than 800 homeless people in the Denver area with no-strings-attached cash payments every month for the last year.For recipients Dia Broncucia, 53, and Justin Searls, 45, those payments have been a manifestation of a different concept: hope.The money got them off the street, played a critical role in helping Broncucia recover from Stage 3 breast cancer and was a catalyst as the couple charts a new course for their lives after getting sober following years of drug use.“We probably wouldn’t have been able to survive. I’m dead serious. Something would have happened,” Searls said of what might have been had they not been enrolled in the program.The Denver Basic Income Project marked the anniversary of the first payments of its pilot program on Nov. 15. The program is funded through a mix of private, nonprofit and government money, ...

10 Freeway open for Monday commute but there's still work to be done

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:38:50 GMT

Commuters were able to hop on the 10 Freeway Monday morning after it reopened ahead of schedule Sunday but officials say more work needs to be done. Experts initially believed it would take months to open the freeway after a pallet fire erupted on Nov. 11, closing the roadway from Alameda Street to Santa Fe Avenue. That estimate was later revised to three to five weeks before it ultimately opened in just eight days. After an eight-day closure, the 10 Freeway reopened on Nov. 29, 2023. (KTLA)Officials say the rapid opening was made possible by several factors. Better structural testing results than were expected following the fireRapid debris removalGood coordination between state, local and federal government officialsCrews working around the clockLos Angeles Mayor Karen Bass announced the freeway reopening with a post on X, formerly Twitter, just after 7:30 p.m. Sunday.

Map: Speed cameras are likely to be placed on these San Jose streets

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:38:50 GMT

As part of a pilot program that’s bringing speed camera technology to the city’s most dangerous streets, San Jose is gearing up to install 33 of the devices next year at high-risk intersections, with the ultimate goal of reducing the dozens of people killed and hundreds severely injured each year in traffic collisions.This year, 45 people in San Jose have died from traffic-related incidents. Of those deaths, 24 were pedestrians. Last year saw 65 deaths, the highest number of fatalities in the city’s modern history.Signed into law in September, AB 645 is the first time speed cameras will be brought to California’s roads.When and where the cameras in San Jose will be placed is still being hammered out. Councilmember Pam Foley, who has spearheaded the city’s efforts to create safer roads, says she wants them installed by the end of 2024. In addition to the riskiest intersections, the program also calls for cameras to be placed around school zones.“It...

Kerr identifies one reason why the Warriors can’t find offensive flow

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:38:50 GMT

SAN FRANCISCO — The list of concerns surrounding the Golden State Warriors grows longer after each loss in the Warriors’ six-game streak. There is one issue that underlies the losses and wins alike.Poor transition offense.Only 12% of the Warriors’ offensive possessions this season are in transition, which ranks last in the league, according to Second Spectrum. The Warriors also rank in the middle of the pack, 15th, in pace with 100.29 possessions per game.“It’s a little perplexing, to be honest with you,” coach Steve Kerr said. “My feeling is some of it is defensively we haven’t been getting out to good starts and getting stops leads to transition. And we’ve had some games where we fouled quite a bit as well.”This is a problem because much of the Warriors’ offensive identity with Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green relies on transition offense. A decade ago, the rise of the dynasty came with the trio running...
