Governing Magazine Takes 1st at Neal Awards


Was very proud to receive word that Governing magazine took 1st place at the 57th Annual Jesse H. Neal National Business Journalism Awards competition, in the “Best Single Article” category.


The article receiving recognition is an excellent feature by Governing senior editor Zach Patton and tells a clear, straightforward story about Colorado Springs, Colorado and what happens to a local government when driven by an ailing economy and tax adverse voters to do “less with less”. Published last September it’s a prescient piece now being played out by increasing numbers of states and localities throughout the country. It’s also a great example of the kind of reporting that Governing’s talented writers and editors consistently turn out.
