Denver November 2004 Election
The RTD Board approved the FasTracks proposal last night, according to the Denver Post [April 23, 2004, "RTD finalizes FasTracks"]. FasTracks would add five new rail lines from downtown Denver to Golden, Arvada/Wheat Ridge, Boulder/Longmont, north Adams County and Denver International Airport. Another new rail line would run in the Interstate 225 corridor. All would be completed by 2015. Other improvements would be finished by the following year under RTD's proposal. To pay for the bulk of FasTracks, RTD needs voters to approve an increase in the agency's sales tax from the current 0.6 percent to 1 percent." Here's the coverage from the Rocky Mountain News [April 23, 2004, "RTD board OKs $4.7 billion FasTracks plan"].
