Regional Roundup | Episode 152

Published April 23, 2026 at 4:30 PM MDT

Glenwood Springs Deputy Police Chief John Hassell demonstrates how his department searches for a license plate in its Flock camera system on Feb. 9. The police department began using these cameras for investigations in 2022, but recently shut down all data-sharing after learning that outside agencies have included the city’s data in immigration-related searches.

This week on the Regional Roundup: two people living with Parkinson’s share what it’s like to navigate a disease that affects more than a million Americans. We head to Norwood in southwest Colorado, where a project aims to tackle algae blooms while generating electricity. In Glenwood Springs, we hear community concerns about Flock surveillance cameras. We also visit a community choir in western Colorado that’s bringing people together through music and connection. And we round out the show with a conversation on the affordable housing crisis in resort communities across the Rocky Mountain West. Tune into the Regional Roundup on KDNK.org every Thursday at 4:30 pm.
