Grand County

At one point, Marv Heemeyer wanted to publish a letter to the editor in the newspaper about the concrete plant.

Patrick Brower says Marv's original ending to the letter read, "Don't let the lying good old boys and backstabbers dump this on the community of Granby and Grand County." Patrick made some edits.

And other people began to figure out that Marv was also using this just as leverage to get back at the Docheffs for those personal reasons.

Initially, he had a lot of support from the neighborhood, but, uh, as it became clear what was really going on, uh, a lot of the support he had dwindled to the point where nobody even showed up at the final meetings about the approval process to back Marv and his, uh, opposition.

According to reports, the only thing missing from the bag was a float tube and Robert's family confirmed that he enjoyed fishing and hunting in that area.

Multiple agencies joined in the search for Robert, with the Post Independent reporting that agencies from Garfield County, Mesa County, Delta County, Crested Butte, Eagle County, Aspen and Grand County assisted in the search.

These teams brought helicopters, dog units, ground searchers and even cavers to help find Robert, however no sign of him was ever detected.

Robert Dwayne Scott is considered endangered missing and his family are desperate for closure.

That's the message, right, that Kirk wants you to hear, is every time you turn on your sprinkler, every time you leave the shower running for longer than you might want to, it takes water away from rivers like this, and then you have more cuts, which have lots of effects into the ecosystem.

Mark Salinger, thanks for taking the trip up to Grand County.

Congressional Republicans are singling out Denver and Boulder for their so-called sanctuary policies.

Next, Svetlana Ustamenko, Colorado Mountains.

In the summer of 2023, 55-year-old Svetlana Ustamenko of Broward County, Florida, had recently been diagnosed with a terminal illness, according to the Grand County Sheriff's Office.

As a means to cope, Svetlana rented a vehicle, set off for the mountains in Grand County, Colorado, and ultimately vanished.

Her family later reported her missing to officials in Broward County, according to the Sheriff's Office.

During the week of July 30, the Grand County Sheriff's Office noticed a rental car parked at the trailhead for the Dead Horse Creek Trail located off County Road 73 southwest of Frayser.

Upon investigation, deputies and a U.S. Forest Service law enforcement officer discovered a white 2022 Nissan Sentra with Louisiana license plates that appeared to have been parked there for an extended period without use.

According to the Sheriff's Office, the car was scheduled to be returned to the rental car company on August 10.

According to officials, officers started searching the area around the location of the rental car on the evening of August 11.

Now, since April...

Parks and Wildlife has shot five wolves under that rule in Grand County, Pitkin, and Rio Blanco counties.

Three of them in three days last month.

Rio Blanco is where it's worst.

What changed is the state's inventory.

The state needs its wolves more than it needs to keep its deal with you.

Tim Richard runs the Mill Park Stock Growers Association up in Grand County.

Earlier this month, when the state was still shooting, he called the whole setup a no-win, with ranchers still losing livestock, wolves still coming back off the landscape.

We have not had to use that yet, and I hope we never have to, but it's out there.

There's a $100,000 reward if somebody happens to know, for example, who shot the wolf in Grand County in 2024.

If they were to come forward with that information and it led to a prosecution, they could win $100,000, which is interesting.

It's way beyond the most comparable thing, which would be the Operation Game Thief program, every state that I'm familiar with has an Operation Game Thief program and that's a similar thing to prevent poaching of big game animals.

Since reintroduction started, Colorado has paid about $1.3 million.

One family, feral livestock up in Grand County, asked for $422,000 for a single year.

They'd had 15 cows killed, and their own record showed calves coming in 36 pounds lighter and pregnancy rates down almost 3%.

The commission approved $287,000, and the rest went into negotiation over the cattle nobody could find.
