Denver city leaders cut the ribbon on the opening of the city’s 16th Street to symbolize its reopening after years of renovations, Oct. 4, 2025. Photo: Hart Van Denburg/CPR NewsDenver’s civic establishment is now pushing toward a positive vote for Denver’s five property tax debt increases for infrastructure:
| 2A | Transportation and mobility |
| 2B | Parks (Park Hill) and recreation |
| 2C | Health and human services |
| 2D | Infrastructure related to libraries, art, culture, animal shelter, police/fire training center |
| 2E | Housing and shelter |
Although a regular campaign of online communication, legacy media, and direct voter contact is being launched, the main thrust of activity is to announce completion of or plans for various city projects. These include the long-overdue but welcomed ribbon cutting for the 16th Street project, the announcement for a revamp of Pavilions Mall on 16th Street, and confirmation of the Broncos’ stay in Denver in old water department space.
The goal is to show Denver on the move after the bad news of slow growth, federal funding cuts, and Denver’s budget crisis and layoffs. Voters like good news. It should help.
