Good Morning! On this day in 1876, Colorado entered the Union, becoming the 38th U.S. State. Colorado is known as the Centennial State because it achieved statehood the same year as the United States’ 100th anniversary—meaning today, Colorado's 150th anniversary, roughly coincides with America's 250th.

Colorado Spared Mandatory River Cuts

The federal government's final Colorado River plan, released Friday, spares Colorado from mandatory cuts and instead asks the Upper Basin states to conserve up to 200,000 acre-feet voluntarily.

The Lower Basin states of California, Arizona and Nevada could face reductions of up to 3 million acre-feet. Arizona's water agency called the framework unacceptable and said the cuts would devastate its economy.

The Bureau of Reclamation plan runs through 2036 and lets the agency set Lake Powell releases between 5 million and 12 million acre-feet, updating guidelines about every two years.

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said the framework leaves room for the seven states to reach their own deal. The 2007 rules expire at the end of the year.

Crime Fell Statewide in 2025

Colorado's violent crime rate fell 10.7% from 2024 to 2025, or 3,372 fewer reported violent crimes, according to state data released Thursday.

The property crime rate dropped 17.3%, or 28,126 fewer reports, the Colorado Division of Criminal Justice said. Motor vehicle theft fell 36.8% and homicide 16.8%.

Gov. Jared Polis credited a data-driven approach and public safety spending. "In the last two years, crime has decreased in Colorado," he said.

Colorado still ranks 47th nationally for crime and corrections in U.S. News & World Report's latest rankings, with a violent crime rate of 476 per 100,000 residents against a national average of 359.

Nunn Home Listed, Occupant Included

A three-bedroom house in Nunn hit Zillow with a warning few listings carry: no showings, no inspections, and a buyer left responsible for removing the woman inside.

A screenshot drew more than 4 million views on X. Tori McMechan and her late husband bought the Weld County home in 2006; he died in a car crash amid a dispute with town officials.

McMechan sued the lender twice on her own, arguing the loan changed hands without a clear record of ownership. Both suits were dismissed, and the Colorado Court of Appeals ruled against her last year.

She is pinning her hopes on a 2024 state law giving evicted tenants a right to a jury trial. "I've had three attorneys that could not even get this straightened out," she said.

The listing agent said he has sold thousands of foreclosed homes, but never one with someone still inside.
