Tuesday is your chance to be present at the birth of a new city | Vince Bzdek

Tuesday’s city election comes at one of the most opportune times ever for us voters. Right as our city is on the cusp of a rebirth after COVID, we have a chance to take the newborn Springs into our arms and carefully shape its future. The timing of this election may give us more influence than we’ve ever had on how our city will grow up. We get to pick midwife and parents of that New Baby Springs after a difficult 12-month incubation. The people we pick out of the 21 candidates vying for the six district council seats in the April 6 election will decide what our 150-year-old city starts to become in the next 150 years. I can’t imagine a more important time to vote.

Council candidates discuss powers of office

After voters approved a strong mayor-council form of government in 2010, Colorado Springs City Council’s role changed. Before that, council relied on an appointed city manager to oversee administrative functions of the city and bring information to council to decide almost everything. Now, the mayor runs the city and has veto power over almost all council decisions, save for referral of ballot measures, budget approval and land-use decisions. It takes six of nine council votes to override that veto. The mayor proposes the budget, hires contractors through certain procedures — such as road paving and emergency ambulance service — and brings various measures to council for approval. Those can include ordinances for changing what types of structures are allowed in which zones or proposals to annex more land.
