The Daily Sentinel: Local resident Dennis Simpson is seeking the release of two lease agreements made by businesses that have constructed buildings in the Las Colonias Business Park and has begun court proceedings to get them.

Simpson said he made a Colorado Open Records Act (CORA) Request of the Las Colonias Development Corporation (LCDC) for the agreements, but was told they were not subject to CORA. Last week, a motion was filed on Simpson’s behalf seeking determination that the agreements are “likely public records.” This is a first step prior to a future hearing.

The development corporation markets the Las Colonias Business Park to attract new businesses to construct buildings within the park. It was formed by the city of Grand Junction.
