Show Notes: Dear Mayor Hancock
- Congratulations on your win, I know it wasn’t easy.
- Denver has become a vibrant city filled with endless possibilities
- Anything feels possible.
- We have incredible resources such as: Denver Start Up Week, The Commons on Champa, Women of Denver, Women Who Startup, and House of Pod
- We love to have fun-The National Western Stock Show, Denver Greek Festival, Concerts at Red Rocks, Pride, and the Juneteenth celebration are just a few of the opportunities we use to get together
- There are so many work opportunities.
- There are some issues-The Homeless problem has become a serious situation in Denver. I’m uncomfortable going to certain places depending on the time of day.
- Denver is dirty-now, this is partly because we actually use and live in the downtown area of the city.
- Tagging on all of the buildings
- Small businesses struggling to stay staffed
- The rising cost of housing (which also affects staffing)
- Traffic sucks
- What I love-Kids and Baby Boomers getting free access to the recreation center
- Free events all of the time being hosted throughout the city
- The expansion of the lightrail-even though it feels painfully slow at times
- The overall positive mood of the city
