A funny thing has happened in the last month or so since I last posted. Actually, a few funny things have happened:
So the lesson here, oddly, seems to be this: neglect your blog for a while, and it will yield greater results than when you work on it every day. (Please hear the light touch of tongue-in-cheek inherent in that statement.) Now, while I never would intentionally practice this lesson, I am excited that this blog is apparently self-sustaining at the moment. Of course, I realize this newfound success wouldnt have happened without you, our readers, so I want to take a moment to say: Thank you! Thanks! Hey pal, nice going! We appreciate you! Thanks for stopping by! Come back soon!

- includes a $53 million package of incentives - "The city and Colorado Springs real estate company LandCo Equity Partners will provide the USOC with 90,000 square feet of office space in a downtown building, which will serve as a new headquarters for the USOC." - "The organization will be allowed to lease the space for $1 a year over 25 years, and will assume ownership of the building at the end of that period." As I've mentioned before, the USOC headquarters, along with the Olympic Training Center, are both unique contributors to the Colorado Springs New Homes area economy, and we are lucky to have them here, as suggested by the $53 million package and the way the possible relocation was such a big deal. I am very excited an agreement was reached to keep the committee in our area.

Now, the operative words here is "close," as the agreement is not definite and remains to be entirely worked out, but according to The Gazette, the agreement: - would "include millions of dollars worth of financial incentives for the USOC's new downtown office" - would include "a major redevelopment of the Olympic Training Center" - could be approved as soon as Monday The Olympic Training Center is one of the neat attractions unique to our city, and of course having the USOC here is something we take great pride in. The Training Center is a great attraction for tourists and residents alike, offering year-round tours, access to certain practices and games, and an overall fun time for families. It plays a nice role in our local Colorado Springs New Homes economy, and I hope the deal is finalized, as I would be sad to see this local landmark and distinction leave our city.

Updating a
Not exactly great news here, but just a heads-up for Colorado Springs New Homes area residents who use I-70 to get to their jobs or to go skiing:
If you've been following the news lately, you've likely heard that the U.S. Olympic Committee has been discussing relocating its headquarters, which have been located in Colorado Springs since 1978. Well, potential good news for our city today, as the USOC and Colorado Springs officials are close to finalizing an agreement that would keep the headquarters in our city.
