BRECKENRIDGE - The Breckenridge Planning Commission is on board with a proposed alpine coaster at Breckenridge Ski Resort.
The commission voted unanimously Tuesday night to approve the project; the plan will go before the Breckenridge Town Council March 23.

Sunshine Laws are intended to maintain government transparency through meetings and records. This week, media across the country aim to open dialogue about the importance of the freedom of information and open government.
The Summit Daily uses Colorado's Sunshine Laws regularly to gather information for stories. One information request took nearly four years of an open records suit before it was filled.
The result came last summer: It was revealed that the Town of Breckenridge had settled a civil rights suit with an "involuntarily terminated" police officer for $80,000.
The Denver Post in a 2008 case sought to obtain access to Gov. Bill R
