RIP FirstBank, DPS’s Superintendent Wants Out, and What’s Up With the DMV?
from City Cast Denver · host City Cast
Goodbye, FirstBank! While PNC promised a smooth transition after it acquired the legacy “Colorado bank for you” for $4.1 billion, many customers are reporting real problems – like the woman who suddenly had access to her mother’s bank accounts. Green chile correspondent Justine Sandoval is back on the pod with host Bree Davies to talk about local banking brand loyalty, long wait times at the DMV, and the city’s plan to staff up and write more parking tickets. Plus, a bonus segment only for City Cast Denver Neighbors about why DPS superintendent Alex Marrero can’t seem to keep his desire to get out of Denver a secret.

Bree discussed our episode on population trends, Joy’s Kitchen’s new location, and the child who died in a Veo e-bike accident last month.
