Mountain Bell Ordered to Issue Refund
Colorado Supreme Court ordered Mountain Bell to begin repaying customers about 3 million dollars after a rate increase was ruled illegal. The decision denied Mountain Bell’s appeal of a Colorado Public Utilities Commission ruling from January 18. The refund amount was set at roughly 2 million dollars by the commission, following a challenge by the Colorado Municipal League to an 1869 rate increase later deemed partly invalid.

Storm brings heavy snow to southern Colorado mountains
A major early fall snowstorm pushed into southern Colorado, with heavy snow warnings for the southern Rockies and northern New Mexico high country. Two deaths occurred from a Monday icy bridge collision near Fowler. Six inches of snow expected in the southern Rockies, Salida citing over half a foot by Monday night, Monarch Pass chain requirements in effect. Readings forecast in the 30s and 40s in most Colorado areas, 20s in the mountains. Politically, Floyd Haskell and Allott campaigned in eastern Colorado and Denver suburbs with tax and land use proposals and a proposed federal tax credit for homeowners to ease burdens, while Haskell criticized the aim as tax cuts not reform.
