INDIAN HILLS, Colo. — Coloradans and tourists alike will head to the mountains this weekend to peep the changing fall foliage. While businesses hope to take advantage of the increased traffic — one business feared it wouldn't be able to open its doors due to a scheduled Xcel outage.
“To complete this work safely, we will need to interrupt electric service to your area," an automated voice said. "I pretty much panicked because we gear up, we do the inventory, we prep and we bring staff on," Frisbie said."You know, it affects a lot of people. All our staff, they anticipate tips and their their hourly-rate wages ... and just to have to close down on a Saturday this time of year is not acceptable."Wednesday afternoon, Frisbie began calling county leaders and Xcel to see if a new maintenance date could be accommodated.
