Executive director Gerald Tirozzi cites gains since 1996, with many students abstaining from alcohol and over half never having Aminet. Teachers report less drug activity at Pershing Middle School, where strict policies include random locker searches and drug-sniffing dogs.

Suburban shifts spur highway projects such as Denver’s I 25 corridor expansion and the adjacent light rail plan, with residents like Scott Yates praising anticipated relief from chronic gridlock.
