Subsidized Miracles

Did you know the digital sign at the Arvada Center cost you 1.3 million dollars and sits in violation of multiple city sign codes?

Well we at the Arvada Report have a special gift for you this holiday season! The Miracle on 34th Street the musical will be subsidized by your tax dollars at the Arvada Center November 27th-December 13th 2012. Everyone should go and see this magical production, because you paid for it already with your tax dollars.

In other news did you know that the Arvada Center which is one of the states largest employer of actors is exclusively a union house? That means only union actors and union productions. That also means more of your tax money. Did you know that each year the City of Arvada further subsidizes the Arvada center to the tune of millions because it can't turn a profit? Did you know you can attend the Denver Center of Performing Arts and receive better performances cheaper?

                                                                 Merry early Christmas!

Zenzinger Plays Partisan

Rachel Zenzinger is a leftist loony who would love nothing more than to take all of our cars away and make us ride bicycles everywhere like her hippy husband (based on conversations members of our staff have had with her). She is an important member of the  Jeffco Democratic party. But as a city councilor representing the Citizens of Arvada she is supposed to remain nonpartisan. In regards to tonights Jeffco board of education tonight. Zenzinger had this to say about the censureship of republican board member Laura Boggs:

This makes us wonder, who is Rachel working for the constituents of her district or Cindy Stevenson and the Jeffco Dems?

Arvada police want to talk to Ridgeway suspect about unsolved cases

ARVADA - Arvada police want to talk with the suspect in Jessica Ridgeway's murder to see if he's connected to two attempted abductions in their city.

On Wednesday, Westminster police announced the arrest of 17-year-old Austin Sigg. Police say he confessed to killing 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway earlier this month.

He's also linked to the attempted abduction of a 22-year-old woman who was running at Ketner Lake back in May.

Because those crimes happened around the same time and place as the two attempted abductions in Arvada police there want to question Sigg.

"I wouldn't call him a suspect," Arvada Police Sgt. Mark Nazaryk said. "I'm not sure I'd even go as far as to call him a person of interest. We'd just like to talk to him about some similarities."

Arvada police released a sketch of the suspect in connection with the attempted abductions that happened in September.

While Sigg resembles the sketch slightly, police say the description of the suspect's car does not match the car driven by Sigg.
