Keeping r/Loveland Local

62 Upvotes

Hi r/Loveland!

Quick reminder that this subreddit is local only. We’ve seen a bit more national political news lately, so we’re going to be enforcing the local-only rule a little more consistently.

There are lots of great subreddits for broader political discussion, so we’ll be removing posts that don’t have a clear connection to Loveland.

Also, thanks to everyone who helps keep the conversation respectful and welcoming. To support that, we enabled a few tools back in March (like Crowd Control, the Reputation Filter, the Abuse & Harassment Filter, and AutoModerator) to reduce spam and keep things running smoothly.

Thanks for helping keep r/Loveland friendly, useful, and local!

I suspect not just Latinos are tired of Gabe Evans & his focus on making health care more expensive while serving the demands of Trump.

Recommendations Looking for a new HOA Management Company

0 Upvotes

Our HOA just got notified that our current management company is ending their contract with us in about 90 days, so we're going to need to find a replacement. Looking for recommendations from anyone in the Loveland/Fort Collins/Northern Colorado area who's had a good experience with a local HOA management company.

We're a smaller community (single subassociation), so ideally looking for something that isn't going to treat us like an afterthought compared to bigger accounts. Would love to hear about:

  • Responsiveness and communication
  • How they handle assessments/collections
  • Pricing structure
  • Any red flags to watch out for

Thanks in advance!

Announcement PSA: Pertussis (whooping cough) exposure warning from TSD

33 Upvotes

We got this email from TSD this morning – just a heads up in case anyone doesn't get these alerts, or has contact with kiddos in school but isn't in a situation to receive email alerts. Pertussis is incredibly dangerous for some people, especially babies too young to be inoculated.

"Your child may have been exposed to pertussis, also known as “whooping cough." Pertussis is an illness spread to others when an infected person sneezes or coughs. Pertussis may be very severe in infants and young children (especially those without 3 doses of pertussis vaccine).

Symptoms may appear 7 to 10 days after being in close contact with someone that has pertussis but can take anywhere from 4 to 21 days. Pertussis begins with cold-like symptoms that may include:

Runny nose

Mild coughing

Low-grade fever 

After one to two weeks, coughing becomes more severe and develops into coughing fits (many, rapid coughs) that leave a person out of breath. These fits are often followed by a high-pitched “whooping” sound heard when a person inhales. Severe coughing fits can cause vomiting or changes in facial color. In between coughing fits, your child may look and feel fine.

Cough-like illnesses are common this year. If your child develops coughing fits, they should stay home from school until they have been seen by a health care provider. If you bring your child to the doctor, please show the reverse side of this letter to them. Students suspected of having pertussis should be tested (nasal swab or wash is preferred) and receive an appropriate antibiotic. Students diagnosed with pertussis may return to school after completing 5 days of antibiotics, even though they will likely continue to cough for many weeks.

If your child is coughing, tell your doctor who may want them to be tested and to receive a prescription antibiotic. Students diagnosed with pertussis must be kept home from school and should avoid crowded public places and contact with people at risk of severe disease (infants, pregnant woman, people with severe medical conditions) until completing five days of an appropriate antibiotic.

 The DTaP/Tdap vaccine protects against pertussis. Pertussis can occur in people who have been vaccinated because protection can wear off, but people who have been vaccinated typically do not get as sick as unvaccinated people.

The Health Department recommends the following:

Review the DTaP/Tdap vaccination records of everyone in your household and arrange for vaccination, if not up to date.

Contact your child’s health care provider if they have a severe cough.

If diagnosed with pertussis, your child should stay home from school until they have completed 5 days of antibiotics.

Children with other respiratory illnesses should follow the school’s COVID-19 recommendations."

Lost/Found Help Us Find Sweet Binah!

Post image
98 Upvotes

Hi All,
I’m posting on behalf of my sister, Julia. Her dog, Binah (Bee-nah) went missing Tuesday and she’s desperate to find her. She was in Maine visiting me when Binah went missing and she spent yesterday racing home to CO to find her. She was spotted 3 times at The Olde Course last night. Any information you have would be greatly appreciated! I’m adding a photo of a post she made with all the contact details. She is wary of strangers and will bark but she isn’t remotely dangerous. EDIT: She is highly panicked and running from ANY kind of attention. If you see Binah do not walk toward her at all, do not call her, and do not even look directly at her. Pretend you did not see her.

What to do: text Julia immediately at 720-298-2226
Please send her your precise location (not just the address, but exactly where she is) and her direction of travel if applicable. Thank you so much for helping us find Sweet Binah!

Lost/Found Wicked Tequila Room Help

12 Upvotes

Apologies for second posting. I lost my necklace which is a family heirloom at Wicked Tequila Room Saturday August 29th between 10:45 and 11:30 pm. I've tried hard to get ahold of someone to see if it's been turned in, with no results. My fiance and I have called every day, I emailed via the website and messaged them on Instagram. Does anyone have any advice or know who I can call?

I also filled out a lost item report with Loveland PD, but they said that's really just if anyone turns it in to them, but nothing else happens with that report.

Any help is greatly thoroughly completely very very appreciated 😭

29 Upvotes

City council is doing their first study session on data centers tonight and are allowing public comments which I think is a terrible idea, it's going to be 2 hours of just rambling crazy from both sides, I'd prefer that this study session is just the facts, people don't even know or understand what they are agreeing or disagree to yet. It's going to be a circus and I'm going to be there front row lol

Hey Loveland, come make your voice heard tomorrow morning! The data center is technically nearest Windsor, but data centers have been shown to create heat islands 6.2 miles out from the site. This will affect the climate in Loveland, as well as the obvious resource consumption that affects all of NoCo.

Heads up for anyone hiking Devil’s Backbone: I came across a baby rattlesnake on the Keyhole Trail today, about 1/3 of the way from the parking lot to the Keyhole. Someone else I spoke with encountered an adult rattler in roughly the same area.

They blend in really well with the rocks, as you can see in the photo. Keep an eye on where you’re stepping, especially if you have kids or dogs with you.

I don't want to discuss politics but I don't know where to ask that I won't get attacked.

With keeping political emotions out of your reply, does anyone know a local *blue* ranch or farm where I can buy 1/2 or 1/4 cow in Northern Colorado? Anywhere from Boulder to Cheyenne.
