Good morning, readers! Check out this list of terrible grocery stores to see if yours is on it (mine is 😬) and maybe avoid the King Soopers at 18605 Green Valley Ranch Boulevard, which was named the second-worst grocery store in the country 👎

What's CITY Talking About?

⚖️ Trump Sues Denver Over Sanctuary Policies
The state and the city, as well as Gov. Jared Polis and Mayor Mike Johnston, are listed on a lawsuit filed Friday that argues that limiting cooperation with immigration enforcement is a violation of federal law. The suit comes after President Donald Trump signed an executive order threatening litigation against cities and states with sanctuary policies. [9News reporter Jeremy Jojola via X]
🚲 Planned Bike Lane Canceled Over Parking Concerns
The plan, which called for a protected bike lane on South Irving Street, is back to the drawing board after neighbors pushed to keep on-street parking available. A recent study found only 19% of the on-street parking is regularly used. A new plan includes an unprotected bike lane, maintaining on-street parking, and adding speed reduction infrastructure.

🎙️ Kyle Clark on The Yadira Caraveo Exposé
The Colorado Sun dropped a bombshell investigation on former Congresswoman Yadira Caraveo’s alleged mistreatment of staffers. Just days before the story broke, Kyle Clark spoke with Caraveo on 9News — he joins the City Cast Denver podcast to talk through what he gleaned from the conversation and what it says about the former legislator’s chances of taking her congressional seat back in 2026.

🏢 Cedar Run Tenant Lawsuit Dismissed, But Conditions Improved
The tenant’s union representing residents of Cedar Run Apartments say conditions at the building have improved since the lawsuit was filed, including repairing doors and laundry rooms, but the outcome is disappointing. The tenants sued over unsecured exterior doors that led to vandalism, trespassers, and human waste in common areas, but the judge ruled they didn’t provide enough evidence to continue the lawsuit.
