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!

Tim Allport Seeks Election to State Legislature

Diversity of experience makes him best candidate for Colorado House District 27

ARVADA, Colo. (March 28, 2012) – Bringing a wealth of experience to the position, Tim Allport has formally declared his candidacy for this November’s election to become Colorado’s next representative to House District 27.

Allport, whose career includes positions in criminal justice, addictions counseling and mental health, believes the state legislature should give top priority to an economic environment that promotes expansion of good-paying jobs and an educational structure that paves the way for our children’s success.

“In the short-term, one of Colorado’s greatest resources is its pool of workers who are eager to contribute, and we need to nurture that resource,” Allport said. “In the long-term, we will ensure Colorado’s stability by preparing our children to become part of that pool of highly skilled and qualified workers.”

Allport has been highly active in the community on multiple levels, with a focus on political and labor issues. He has served as chairman of the Labor Initiative of the Colorado Democratic Party.

“I believe my life experiences have given me a solid and unique background to serve our district and the people of Colorado,” he said. “My work in corrections, addiction counseling, and mental health will help in my role as state representative as I advance public policy and improve the lives of Colorado residents.”
