Now that the election hype, ads, letters to the editor, etc., are over, it is time to bring back one of the real issues: The Clock.

There have been numerous letters to the editor regarding people’s dissatisfaction with the bright, white lights on The Clock at The Village at Breckenridge – including one I wrote Sept. 5. That letter suggested that the lights at least be toned down to the level of the “gas lights” in Breckenridge. I recently noticed that the lights on the clock are now just that – they have the brightness and tone of the gas lights.

I would like to thank the Village at Breckenridge, Town of Breckenridge, and all involved in listening to citizens concerns and making this change to the clock. It is a great improvement and fits in much better with the ambiance of the town.
