I wanted to take a moment and thank Ann Brady and Dan Eddy for their service to the town of Rangely. Over the years of their tenure on the council and as mayor, the town enjoyed new housing development on La Mesa, Ridgeview, Dragon Wash and West Main.

Letter: A missed opportunity
After attending the public meeting of the Yellow Jacket Water Conservancy District on April 17, I came away feeling the board of directors missed great opportunities. They missed an opportunity to listen, take notes and to understand the concerns of landowners.

Letter: Schools’ job to teach
In response to the letter printed on April 8 regarding the four-day school week, I would remind the readers that it is the job of the schools to educate, not to provide daycare, parenting services and a moral compass. Remember that the family is the backbone of our society, and[Read More…]
Letter: Remember, affirm life

Letter: Father thanks community
Thank you, Rangely. I cannot explain the hurt from the loss of my daughter, and I know that many have experienced the same, but also know that some are not as fortunate as me, and I am saying this in regard to the support that I have received from the[Read More…]
Letter: Candidate to try again
I would like to thank all 213 voters that supported me in the election, I really appreciate your support and because of you I intend to try again. I’ll be back. Thanks again.
