Pueblo County, CO implements AI to make its building permit process more efficient
Pueblo County has become the first jurisdiction in Colorado to implement AI for building permit reviews by partnering with Blitz AI, integrating the tool into its existing OpenGov permitting system. The AI automates early-stage application checks, identifying missing information, submission errors, and ensuring compliance with local and state building codes, which previously required time-consuming manual reviews by staff. This initiative aims to significantly reduce permit processing times.

Pueblo County, CO officials are discussing the possibility of shifting to nuclear energy
Pueblo County officials are discussing the possibility of shifting to nuclear energy in response to the closing of a local power plant. The proposed benefits include the ability to generate large amounts of energy in a very small footprint without producing carbon emissions. In order to generate the same amount of solar energy as the previous power plant, officials claim it would require 7,000 football fields worth of solar panels.
