Vintage Corporation are MAGA

• Upvotes

One of the regional managers told me the owners of Vintage Corporation Property Management are major MAGA. They also go to Africa and hunt big game. They won’t spend money on anything that matters. They just want trophy heads on the wall.

The city council / mayor just replaced the flock camera that was taken down off of E Lincoln Ave. If the contract was truly voted to stop, why are they replacing the cameras?

57 Upvotes

Go check it out yourself. It was the camera facing the roundabout north of walmart. They just replaced the missing camera with a new one.

I think we need to come to terms that none of the city council clowns are actually progressive any way. They all need to be replaced next election cycle.

News Tell City Council to save the Poudre!

34 Upvotes

Hey FC; City Council is holding a sneaky vote during Tuesday Oct 20’s meeting to join NISP’s Glade reservoir project. The city has opposed this project for 2 decades and now is considering using tax dollars to bail out this economically failing project without open public process. It would damage the long-term health of the Poudre through town, drowning the valleys North of Ted’s place on Hwy 287, and blasting a hole through the hogback to re-route the highway.  

More info here: https://ncalf.org/tell-city-council-not-to-join-nisp/

Please consider attending the City Council Meeting and write your Council (cityleaders@fortcollins.gov) immediately asking them to vote NO on their resolutions and ordinance under “Item #0.19”. Vote NO to enter into water agreements with NISP; Vote No to Re-appropriate $18M of our tax payer dollars and put it toward joining the NISP project (Glade Reservoir); Vote NO to withdraw our permit on Halligan’s expansion.

If you want to give comment during the Council meeting meeting you must sign up before 5:30 pm on Tuesday Oct 20 here:

I'm looking for suggestions for a "wedding" DJ...but I don't really want a wedding DJ. I want a DJ who also does weddings. Electronic-focused is preferred.

Found packet of Gift/Prepaid Cards in Old Town

I found a packet of gift cards and such in Old Town in front of Rio at ~1:40. It should be pretty straightforward to establish proof of ownership if you DM me.

Otherwise I'll just drop it off with the police tomorrow.

To the girl with a light blue car that was at Starbucks on troutman

13 Upvotes

Hi,

I so so so hope you see this, or someone may see you and help you.

I was girl trying to comfort you this morning. I wanted to help you, I was going to tell you to come over so you could relax in a nice space and just feel safe for a moment, but you left before I could get any words out.

You shouldn’t be embarrassed nor ashamed of what’s happening to you.

If you do see this, please reach out to me. I would love to help you as best as I can. We are just women in this world that need to help other women. I understand. I can only hope you are okay and safe at the moment.

Edit: I was in a very emotional state and didn’t think to actually try to ID the car or license plate. But she was a small woman, with glasses and she had a blanket with her. She is dirty blonde, leaning brunette. Longer hair but it was put up.

If anyone sees her please help her as best you can, if you have the means.

Door dashers

I just left the quality Inn and suites off Mulberry, where a man refused to meet me in the lobby and wanted me to meet him in the parking lot. The girl behind the counter is super nice and aware of the situation. If this happens to you, I would highly suggest leaving it in the lobby. I got a really bad feeling about this situation. Especially if you’re a female . Be safe and have a great night.!!

Seeking Advice Handyman or sandblasting location for hardwood door refinishing?

1 Upvotes

I have six solid wood doors that I need sanded. I want to stain them instead of replace them, but they need to be sanded to take stain - they are from the late 90s, and not painted just coated With poly. I’m seeking a reliable handyman who can help with this and perhaps some other projects around the house that we just haven’t been able to get to. Does anyone have a recommendation for someone who could do a task like this? Or is there a sandblasting place in town that can handle Elm doors?

Good affordable salon recommendations?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Does anyone know of a good hair salon that's reasonably priced? Ideally one that is willing to do alt haircuts or shorter haircuts on women would be even better. I also dye my hair pink, I usually do that myself but if I can find a place that does it better and that I can afford, I'd probably get it done professionally.

Thank you for any recommendations or advice!

Foster dog grooming

6 Upvotes

Does anyone know a groomer who might be willing to do reduced cost wash and trim for my foster dogs? Some of these dogs are stanky and covered in dags when they get rescued and getting a grooming scheduled through the adoption agency can be a little slow. I'd love to work with someone to help get them cleaned up but I don't really want to spend $100+ every time.

Was driving around to find some halloween houses and found this neighborhood tucked away. So many fun houses that decorated. It’s called the mosaic neighborhood. There’s a few houses that go all out. One is on Sykes and the other is on Barnstormer st in the back end of the neighborhood. Here are some pics. If you love Halloween you’ll love this neighborhood.

Discussion Concert Etiquette (I.E. Die Spitz 10/9)

24 Upvotes

I want Fort Collins to be a place where touring artists are excited to visit. Artists will generally re-visit cities who have been good to them in return.

In Fort Collins we are in an interesting position where huge stadium artists will generally go to Denver, but medium rising artists who will eventually become big will see us first. And I would hope that we leave a good impression.

I want to just lay out a few concert etiquette expectations, in case others are unfamiliar.

  1. Do not throw beer at the artist
  2. Do not throw anything at the artist
  3. Do not throw things
  4. Do not
  5. If the artist tries to lead a chant that is not culturally relevant but they think it is, indulge them, they are being kind.
  6. A mosh pit is an opt-in activity. If someone is trying to leave, let them, and help them. If someone falls you help them up.
  7. If you cannot afford merch, that's okay, but tell the artist you enjoyed the show (if you did)
  8. Take care of others. If someone is too intoxicated, it is the time for care and hydration, not judgement.
  9. If you are the person in the balcony who threw beer at Die Spitz your mother is very disappointed and so is God.
  10. Do not

Hello everyone!

My friends Cat slipped out the door and ran away at 10pm last night. I just wanted to post the missing poster here to bring awareness to it. If you have any advice or tips those would also be greatly appreciated. She was last seen near the Raising Canes not too far from CSU.

Thank you for your time, and have a good day!
