Cyclist-chasing Doberman is dangerous

Do you by chance live on County Road 203 north of town? Do you own a Doberman? Thank you for attaching a metal tag to its collar. Because you neither fence nor leash this animal, the dog tag...

Parks and Rec wrong for Lake Nighthorse

The city’s recent management plan for Oxbow Park should raise questions as to whether the Parks & Recreation Department is a wise manager for Lake Nighthorse. With residents’ concerns being ...

Durango Herald covers local stories well

Since my daughter enrolled at Fort Lewis College, I have been reading your paper to keep up on the local current events. I have to say, your paper is a great read, does an awesome job of cov...

Out-of-order meters should be free
