If you thought pickles were just for sandwiches, you’re living in the past. There’s a sport called pickleball and it’s on the rise all over the country in a big way, and Aspen is certainly no exception.
Charles Cunniffe and incumbent board President John C. Ward were elected to the Aspen Fire Board. There were 8,467 ballots mailed out and 1,393 returned ballots, which meant 16.5% of those eligible voted.
Last Day to Vote for Special District Campaigns. Tuesday, May 2, 2023, is your last opportunity to vote for three special elections in the Valley. What’s at stake? Aspen Fire Protection District, Aspen Valley Hospital District and Crown Mountain Park and Recreation District all have board seats up for election.
On May 2, voters within the boundaries of the Crown Mountain Park & Recreation District will elect two board members to four-year terms. The board of directors will oversee the finalization of the park’s master.
It is special district election season! And … so much for fanfare for campaigns that run considerably below the radar compared to, say, Aspen City Council or Adam Frisch’s refreshed quest to end U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert’s reign in 2024.
