Minimum home lot sizes eyed in Colorado push to break barriers

Colorado House Bill 26-1114 would bar most cities from setting minimums of 2,000 square feet for a single-family lot. The cap would apply in areas served by municipal water and sewer. The bill also would block local governments from using frontage, setbacks, open space rules or lot coverage caps to make a 2,000-square-foot lot effectively unusable for housing.

The impact of road signs on economic development

When routes are well organized, there are clear directional signs, and speed limits become reasonable. The early installation of warning signs allows transport companies to plan deliveries more accurately and avoid delays. For businesses, time is money. When a truck carrying goods does not spend hours detouring due to an unclear traffic scheme or stuck in traffic where it could have been avoided thanks to competent traffic management, fuel costs, driver wages, and vehicle maintenance costs are reduced.
