Voters support both Castle Pines ballot questions in unofficial election results

Unofficial results from the November 3 election show Castle Pines voters favor both proposed changes to the City's Home Rule Charter. Both questions address annexation, the process of bringing land into a city's limits. Here's where things stand as of 9 a.m. on Wednesday, November 4:

▪️Ballot Question 300 – 71.6% Yes: Would require voter approval for certain future annexations involving more than 20 acres.
▪️Ballot Question 301 – 64.6% Yes: Would require voters to approve certain annexations involving more than 20 acres that occur within 180 days prior to the measure taking effect.

These results are not yet final. Douglas County will continue counting eligible ballots before the election results are officially certified. View the latest results: https://www.douglasco.gov/elections/

Don't throw away your pumpkin!

Instead, bring it, along with bags of leaves, to Leaf and Pumpkin Composting this Saturday, November 7 from 9 a.m.- 2 p.m. at Elk Ridge Park's parking lot.

Leaves are collected and used by local farms as a soil amendment and need to be as clean as possible. No garden waste, large brush, branches, or tree stumps are accepted as part of the leaf collection event (no commercial landscaping).

Pile them in bags for disposal. You'll dump them out when you get to the event...no bags will be accepted.

The event is free to Castle Pines residents!

Little trick-or-treaters will soon be out and about in Castle Pines. Whether you're hitting the sidewalks or heading out on the road, a few simple precautions can help keep Halloween fun and safe for everyone. Here are some helpful reminders.

For trick-or-treaters:
✅ Cross streets at intersections and crosswalks. Look left, right, and left again before crossing.
✅ Put phones away, stay alert, and make eye contact with drivers before crossing.
✅ Use sidewalks whenever possible. If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic.
✅ Never dart into the street or cross between parked cars.

For drivers:
✅ Slow down and stay especially alert in residential neighborhoods.
✅ Watch carefully for children at intersections, near parked cars, and along sidewalks.
✅ Enter and exit driveways slowly and carefully.
✅ Put away phones and eliminate distractions.
✅ Turn headlights on early to improve visibility.

Let's work together to keep Castle Pines safe this Halloween!
