Congratulations to our sister @yimbyaction.bsky.social chapter YIMBY Ft Collins on a giant victory last night where all their endorsed candidates won! Special congratulations to YIMBY Ft Collins lead Chris Conway for winning his ranked choice race on the first ballot beating a NIMBY incumbent!
Our YIMBY Fort Collins Chapter saw endorsed candidates completely sweep all 4 races for Mayor and City Council in Fort Collins, CO. By the way, one of their chapter members won one of these City Council seats (subtle flex) 😏

YIMBY Denver members came out in force for this project over 6 years ago. Due to rising costs this likely took longer than Developer David Zucker desired, but Zocalo saw the project through and is set to deliver well over 150 income restricted units. www.denverpost.com/2025/10/17/d...
Denver-based Zocalo Development breaks ground on 461 residential units near Sloan’s Lake
