Public meetings

Supervisory Committee meetings

SPR is governed by a Supervisory Committee drawn from both owner cities. Meetings are open to the public; dates and agendas post to the Englewood and Littleton city calendars, and this page links straight to them so nothing drifts out of date.

Services

Grease & Oil Takeback

Drop off holiday cooking grease and oil so it ends up recovered as energy instead of hardening in the pipes under your street.

Why grease matters

Event names, dates, and times come from SPR's public website and calendar, checked June 9, 2026; the committee listing reflects SPR's governance structure. Category tags and the .ics downloads are working prototype demonstrations — the files are generated in your browser, and nothing is fetched from any server.

Under the hood

One calendar, everywhere it needs to be

The current site's inventory counts 23 events. In this redesign every one migrates into a structured WordPress event type — date, time, category, location — instead of living as free-form page text.

Structure is what makes the rest automatic. Categories power the filters above and the What's happening list on the homepage. Each dated listing carries a one-click .ics download — try one — and the production build adds a subscribable feed for the whole calendar, plus Mailchimp announcements that draw from the same entries staff already wrote.

And where someone else owns the schedule — like Supervisory Committee dates on the two cities' calendars — this page links to the source instead of copying it, so the answer is never stale.

What every listing carries

  • Date, time, place — structured fields, not prose, so feeds and filters can read them.
  • A category — tours, community, meetings, or services; one tag drives every filter on the site.
  • An .ics download — residents put SPR events on their own calendars in one click.
  • A Spanish mirror — rendered through the site-wide translation layer, per Addendum 1.
  • An owner and review date — in WordPress, so stale listings get flagged before residents find them.
  • 23Events in the current site's inventory, all migrating with dates and categories intact
  • 4Categories in this demo — the live taxonomy is whatever SPR's calendar needs
  • 1Place staff publish — the site, feeds, and email all read the same entry
  • .icsEvery dated listing downloads straight into a resident's own calendar

Publish once

Staff write the event. The site does the rest.

Filters, homepage listings, calendar downloads, email announcements, and the Spanish mirror all read from the same WordPress entry — so keeping 23 events current is one job, not five.
