Lakewood man pleads guilty to killing Je co Sheri ’s K-9

Romero to be sentenced April 12

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLOROADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A Lakewood man has pleaded guilty to killing a Je erson County Sheri K-9 and pointing a gun at a Golden police o cer, along with three other charges.

Eduardo Romero, 30, is scheduled to be sentenced at 10 a.m. April 12 at the Je erson County Courthouse. He was arrested Feb. 13, 2023 for reportedly eeing police near the Colorado School of Mines campus and killing K-9 Gra t, who was try-

ing to apprehend him.

On Feb. 22, Romero pleaded guilty to four of the eight charges originally led against him, including aggravated cruelty to animals, identity theft and menacing — all felonies. He also pleaded guilty to driving under the in uence, a misdemeanor, and an added count of aggravated motor vehicle theft.

Judge Jason Carrithers dismissed the remaining counts and vacated Romero’s trial, which was scheduled for May.

According to the plea agreement discussed during the Feb. 22 disposition hearing, Carrithers said Romero could be sentenced to 8-12 years in prison, as he would serve time concurrently for each count.

Carrithers said he would determine the exact amount of time Romero will serve, and would also decide whether Romero would serve that time consecutively or concurrently with another sentence. Whether Romero pays any restitution will also be determined at the April 12 sentencing.

Romero, who has previous convictions including identity theft, is already in Colorado Department of Corrections custody for another case.

INSURANCE CLAIM DEADLINE

Were you aware that there’s a one-year deadline to submit a property damage claim to your insurance provider for the hailstorms that occurred in May and June of 2023? Although the repair work can be carried out after this one-year submission window, it’s crucial to le your claim within this timeframe.

e prosecutors said both Je co Deputy Zachary Oliver — K-9 Graft’s handler — and the Golden ofcer at whom Romero reportedly pointed a gun didn’t object to the plea agreement. While they couldn’t be present for the Feb. 22 hearing, the prosecutors anticipated they’d attend the April 12 sentencing hearing.

The Feb. 13, 2023 incident

As described at the May 9 preliminary hearing, around 12:15 a.m. Feb. 13, 2023, a Mines campus o cer and GPD o cer contacted a white Jeep blocking a street near the campus.

Romero, the vehicle’s only occupant, was slumped over the steering wheel with his foot on the brake. He later told o cers he’d been drinking and smoking marijuana during a Super Bowl party in Denver.

Romero woke up enough to start driving the Jeep less than 10 mph westbound on 19th Street, across the U.S. Highway 6 overpass. e two o cers followed and “pinched” the Jeep in to prevent it from moving again. Romero then reportedly started ramming the Jeep into the patrol cars.

e GPD o cer broke the driver’s side window to grab hold of Romero, but he slipped free and ran eastbound on 19th Street. e o cer chased him until Romero reportedly pointed a gun toward the o cer, who dove out of the way.

Meanwhile, Romero ran into heavy shrubbery on the northeast side of U.S. 6. Local agencies set up a perimeter, and Oliver released K-9 Gra t into the brush to apprehend Romero.

Romero later told detectives that he recognized a “cop dog” was coming toward him. He said the dog didn’t bite him, and he denied pointing his handgun at the dog but

“heard the gun re a round.” He assumed he shot the ground.

After hiding from police, Romero turned himself in around 5 a.m. Feb. 13. Once he was in custody, investigators reportedly found he’d used a stolen passport to buy a hotel room. e Jeep he’d been driving was also listed as stolen.

A necropsy con rmed K-9 Gra t died from bullets matching Romero’s gun, Golden Police detectives stated at the May 9 preliminary hearing.

Gra t, who’d been with JCSO since 2015, died at the scene Feb. 13. Oliver has memorialized Graft as a K-9 who never backed down from a task. He was also a very social dog who loved attention at home and at work.

“He was my partner, my best friend, and most of all, my family,” Oliver said at Gra t’s memorial service last year. ” … He gave his life that day. He took a bullet that wasn’t meant for him.”

In the wake of Gra t’s death, community members from Je erson County and beyond donated money and supplies toward the Sheri ’s K-9 unit. Oliver and another deputy started training new K-9 partners last summer.

When a Realtor Violates the Code of Ethics, Clients Often Suffer. Here Are Examples.

More than once have I reminded readers that only members of the National Association of Realtors can call themselves “Realtors,” and only Realtors are bound by the Realtor Code of Ethics. Violation of the Code can subject a Realtor to discipline and even termination of their Realtor membership.

There are several ways that we Realtors might violate the Code without even realizing it, and since ethics complaints can be filed by clients, not just fellow Realtors, let me share with you some of the practices that constitute violations. If your agent is not a Realtor — and only half of all licensed agents are Realtors — he or she isn’t bound by the Code, but they could still be violating state or federal housing laws, as well as real estate commission rules. Ask yourself whether any of the following scenarios resemble something you experienced.

ly loved my listing and needed to close because their current home was about to close, which would render them homeless.

I was free to disclose that ethical lapse to my seller, empowering him to play hardball. Similarly, it would be a violation for me to say that my seller will take less than the asking price — unless I am specifically authorized to say that he or she is “motivated.” Buyers’ agents know what that means.

presented to a client is a big no-no and a violation of Article 9. It’s so easy with today’s electronic documents to send them by email and say, “call if you have any questions,” but we are expected to be more pro-active than that.

Not disclosing that I have an unrepresented buyer for my listing, if asked, is a violation. If I have a dual variable commission (meaning that the commission paid by the seller is lower if I don’t have to pay a buyer’s agent), I must disclose that differential. I do not have to disclose the price of each offer in hand, but it’s my practice to get permission from my sellers to do that when there are multiple buyers.

Misrepresenting one’s level of success is a violation of Article 12. There’s a bus shelter ad I have seen for years by an agent saying he’s our county’s top agent, but I did the research, and it’s not true. That’s a violation not only of the Code of Ethics but of real estate commission rules (as are most Code violations).

I once complained to the commission about bus benches on which an agent claimed he sells a home every 4 days. It wasn’t true, and the commission ordered him to change them. I could have also filed an ethics complaint.

Knowingly giving inaccurate information about one’s listing is another violation of Article 12.

who calls us or visits our open house if they are working with an agent before offering to work with them. Failing to do so could lead to “sign crossing.”

When a listing expires without selling, the homeowner can expect to be deluged by phone calls, texts, letters, postcards and even door knocking by agents whose business model involves soliciting expired listings. A common error by such agents is to fail to check whether that listing is already active on the MLS with another agent or brokerage. Another error is to mistake the “withdrawn” status for the “expired” status. “Withdrawn” indicates that while the listing may be withdrawn from active status on the MLS, it is still subject to a valid listing agreement. When you get such a solicitation, share the name of that agent with your listing agent so he or she can at least contact that agent and tell him/her of the violation.

Misleading a seller on the true value of their home in order to get a listing is a violation of Article 1. The real estate commission can also discipline an agent for this. The agent is obligated to advise the seller of the home’s true value based on his or her professional expertise, and to advise the pitfalls of overpricing it.

Not presenting all offers received prior to closing is another violation. A low-ball offer from a house flipper can be demoralizing, but you still must present it unless you get in writing (as I once did) that you’re relieved from presenting any offers below a certain price.

Divulging confidential information, especially if it could disadvantage your client, also violates Article 1. I once had a buyer’s agent tell me that their buyer real-

Not following showing instructions or showing up at a time other than what was set with the showing service is a violation.

Showing your own listing on a day that you’ve indicated showings are not allowed is a violation of Article 3.

Not disclosing the status of a listing, for example if the home is under contract, is also a violation of Article 3. I’ve had listing agents tell me they weren’t going to change their listing to “Pending” on the MLS until the earnest money was received or the inspection deadline has passed. The MLS will also discipline an agent for that.

Not getting verbal agreements in writing is a violation of Article 9. I always request at least an email instruction from my client, and I create amend/extend documents when appropriate.

Solar-Powered Home With Hyatt Lake Membership

Inducing a client to terminate if you change brokerages is a violation of Article 16, as is soliciting a listing that is currently subject to an exclusive agreement with another broker. Another broker’s unhappy clients can call me, but I can’t call them. Also, we must always ask persons

As I mentioned above, non-Realtors don’t have to abide by the Realtor Code of Ethics, but, as I also said, many violations of the Code are also violations of law and/ or real estate commission rules.

The Realtor associations and the Colorado Real Estate Commission want you and me to report violations.

Seniors Get Roommates vs. Downsizing

A Denver Post article last week told of a non-profit which helps seniors living alone in a big house to find roommates, not just for companionship, shared expenses and mutual caregiving, but as a way to “age in place” instead of selling and finding a smaller resident or apartment.

High-end improvements and Hyatt Lake membership make this home special. At the end of a cul-de-sac, a gate on the back fence draws you to Hyatt Lake for swimming and non-gas-power boating, paddleboarding, and stocked fishing. The owned rooftop solar panels, not visible from the street, meet most or all of this home's electric needs. Although it’s a 2-story home, the primary suite is on the main floor with its own access to the 16’x16’ covered deck. Two guest bedrooms with a shared bathroom are on the top floor, and a 4th bedroom is in the walkout basement. The seller is a woodworker, and his work and attention to detailed improvements is obvious throughout, such as the hanging shelves in the great room. The 3-car garage is lighted and powered to support a workshop and is heated and cooled by a mini-split unit. A Tesla charging station in the garage is included. The kitchen has special touches, including quartz countertops, undercabinet lighting, ultra-high-end Schuler cabinetry, Bosch super-quiet dishwasher, and LG refrigerator with a cold-saver door. The upgrades are so extensive that I urge you to look at the room-by-room details spelled out on the MLS and at www.JeffcoSolarHomes.com. There are two narrated video tours for the same reason — one for the interior and one taking a roundtrip walk to Hyatt Lake through the open space to which this home backs.

An article on CustomBuilderOnline.com argues that propane is the ultimate uninterruptible energy source, and it actually makes some sense and will appeal to people worried about natural disasters disrupting the power grid. The article makes the point that having a tank of propane on your property plus a propane powered electric generator can keep you warm or cool and able to cook even if you have an all-electric home. Because propane does not degrade and can last forever in a tank (and can supply gas at even the lowest temperature), it’s the best way to make sure life goes on for you, no matter what happens with other energy sources.

This reminds me of how I, single at the time, was able to afford my first Denver home purchased in 1997. I asked a male friend, Dave Garton, if he would be interested in sharing a home if I bought it. He said yes, and I bought a home with a walk-out basement. We shared the kitchen, but we each had our privacy. When I met Rita, Dave bought his own home and Rita and I bought a new house.

Golden’s Ore Cart ridership ‘exceeds expectations’ in first six months

Free public shuttle expands service to northern Golden

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLOROADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If the rst six months of data are anything to go by, the Goldenbased Ore Cart shuttles are a success.

e free public shuttles, which are a collaboration between Colorado School of Mines and the City of Golden, had a soft launch in June with the Gold Route serving downtown Golden. ree other routes — serving the Mines campus and connecting to RTD’s W and G Lines — started in August with the 202324 academic year.

Between the soft launch in midJune and the end of January, the Ore Carts recorded 41,000 rides. Both Mines and city o cials said ridership has exceeded their expectations.

“With the popularity of (the Ore Carts), I think it is here to stay and has a good shot at long-term viability for the Mines and Golden community,” said Jason Slowinski, Mines’ associate vice president of infrastructure & operations.

will serve as a replacement for the former Iron Route riders.

e Ore Cart’s new Gold Route will operate for at least six months unchanged, and the partners will evaluate whether it needs to make improvements at that time, Wempe continued.

Other long-term improvements include adding a few drivers and another ADA-accessible shuttle in the next year. Slowinski said this would help the shuttles meet their time intervals, especially if the partners explore increasing hours of operation.

Currently, the shuttles operate 7:30 a.m.-6 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m.-5 p.m. on Saturdays. ey don’t operate on Sundays. All routes are approximately 15 minutes.

While the Ore Carts are o to a strong start, there’s room for improvement.

Matt Wempe, city planner, noted at a recent City Council meeting that the initial Gold Route circulating around downtown had very low ridership. So, the city and Mines recon gured the Gold Route to run between campus, downtown and the Iowa Neighborhood Commer-

cial Center in northern Golden.

In the rst two weeks, Wempe said the new Gold Route had already served 150 riders, which is a vast improvement over the initial downtown route that served 10-20 riders weekly, he added.

After the on-demand Iron Route between downtown Golden and RTD’s G Line ended in November, Wempe said the new Gold Route

Wempe said there’s been some community push to run later on weekdays and expand weekend operations. But, doing that would require additional resources and funding, so Mines and Golden are evaluating whether and how that’ll be feasible.

Overall, Wempe said, “I feel like we’ve got pretty good routes that are serving the community’s needs right now.”

CART

A win-win situation

At the Aug. 9 ribbon-cutting, Golden and Mines o cials explained how the joint Ore Cart venture would help alleviate both organizations’ parking woes; provide better access between campus, downtown and public transit stations; and reduce the number of single-occupancy vehicles on local roads.

Both Mayor Laura Weinberg and Mines President Paul C. Johnson have said neither organization could host shuttles on its own, so a partnership proved natural to enhance services for the entire community.

On the Mines campus, the Ore Cart is meant to replace the Mines Rover, the low-speed autonomous shuttle that had a four-month pilot in fall 2021. While it had limitations,

it ultimately proved there’s a need for public transit across campus and beyond, Mines students and sta members have said.

Orediggers have long wanted to connect to the RTD stations, where they can use their free passes to access almost the entire Denver metro area. Additionally, many students don’t have cars, and those who do have trouble nding parking on campus after 9 a.m.

Student fees partially fund the Ore Carts, along with Mines general funds and city funds.

Overall, Mines is providing the Ore Cart shuttle service’s drivers, vehicles and maintenance. It’s also funding roughly two-thirds of the overall costs, while Golden is funding the rest.

Jason Slowinski, Mines’ associate vice president of infrastructure & operations, previously estimated overall costs at $600,000-$700,000 a year.

Meanwhile, Wempe said the City

of Golden can o set future costs with $1 million in federal funding it’ll receive in the next few years.

With that funding, Wempe said the two organizations have considered expanding routes and services, such as an on-demand shuttle to grocery stores and other food options.

“We have heard that people really want to get to King Soopers,” he said, adding that an RTD bus route serves that part of South Golden Road. “ … We’re trying to avoid duplication of services (with RTD).”

During the Feb. 13 work session, the City Councilors gave suggestions about additional stops or routes, such as Golden High School and the VA Clinic/Ulysses Park. ey also wondered about the shuttles’ branding, with Councilor Patty Evans saying she knew of Goldenites who’d wanted to use the Ore Cart but believed it was only for Mines students.

Wempe said Golden and Mines have a good working relationship

on the Ore Cart, and meet quarterly to discuss any issues, possible solutions and long-term plans.

Councilor Bill Fisher mentioned he’s been riding the new Gold Route, describing how the drivers are helpful and how it’s been a generally good experience.

Wempe and Slowinski both believed the Ore Cart shuttle service has been “successful in meeting community and campus transit needs,” and said they’ll continue to evaluate the service and make any necessary changes to see that success continue.

“I had a sense that it would be embraced by the campus and the Golden community,” Slowinski continued. “ … Students and faculty wanted reliable connections to the RTD system. e Golden community (wanted) better transit options. e Ore Cart delivers for both.”

Family Connects and Je co Public Health deploys nurses and much-needed help to families with newborn babies

BY JO DAVIS JDAVIS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Family Connects is a free program with Je erson County Public Health and Lutheran Medical Center, a part of the Intermountain Health program. e program dispatches registered nurses to the homes of families with newborns.

“ is program saved my life,” said Amanda McCoy, a family ambassador with Family Connects.

McCoy said the program connected her and her partner with resources that they all needed but never knew existed.

Kate Follett, Public Health Nurse Supervisor with Je co Public Health and the Family Connects program said the program model focuses on moms and babies, however, it is also for other types of families with newborns. is includes foster care providers, kinship care and babies discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit.

Follett said the program also serves “families in bereavement, where the mother or baby passed away.” She also wants readers to know that Family Connects serves families no matter what their immigration (and documentation) status is.

“We are mandatory reporters for child abuse and neglect,” Follett said. “But that is not the focus of the program. We are mindful in those extreme cases and don’t make the decisions lightly.”

Follett said that her entire team makes the decision.

“We do not report to immigration, the IRS and other government,” Follett said. “So we are not asking for proof of residence, income or any of that when nurses come to visit.”

Follett wants families to be assured that the nurses coming into the home are not there to judge or pry. ey are there to help.

She said the program has reduced the reports to child welfare for families with new babies. e aid that the nurses provide actually alleviates some of the factors that could lead to Child Protective Services involvement.

McCoy agrees. She utilized the NICU to Home part of the program.

“ ere is a stigma and fear about letting someone into your home during that time (after bringing a new baby home),” McCoy said. “Welcome them

(Family Connects nurses) in because it will help beyond what you can imagine.”

McCoy said the nurses helped her and the father of her twins in so many ways.

“Amanda, my nurse, helped me while I cried a few times,” McCoy said. e nurse helps with the mental health care of the entire family. is includes directing the family to resources when needed.

Follett explained that the resources are an important part of the program as well.

“ e nurses keep a nger on the resources,” she said. e families are screened, with consent, according to Follett. From that the nurse determines what additional aid is needed.

McCoy said her nurse connected her family with a therapist, a course on secure attachment for when her babies came home from the NICU. at course was Circle of Security and it was something that McCoy says she wouldn’t have known about without the Family Connects nurse.

McCoy said her nurse also got her diapers, high chairs, car seats and more.

Follett said the resources come from partnerships with organizations all over Je co and the Denver Metro area.

WeeCycle, 20 S Havana St., Ste 210 in Aurora is a resource for diapers, wipes, clothing, furniture and other baby needs.Je co Public Library hosts a monthly support group for moms and gives each new family a free book.

Follett said the nurses are there to help families with whatever they need. According to the Family Connects website, 95% of parentssaid they needed support after their families were born, but could not nd it. Family Connects aims to help ll that gap.

“Our commitment lies in assisting all families with a newborn by ensur-

Golden’s Shelton Elementary School wins NFL PLAY 60 grant

School receives $1,000 for physical activity equipment

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLOROADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It was quite a surprise when Angela McWilliam’s rst-graders were doing their usual “brain breaks” with the NFL PLAY 60 Super Bowl broadcast and heard their school had won $1,000.

Golden’s Shelton Elementary School is one of three U.S. schools to receive this year’s NFL PLAY 60 Youth Health and Wellness grants

for physical activity equipment. e American Heart Association and the NFL announced the winners a few days before the Feb. 11 Super Bowl.

McWilliams, her students and others at Shelton were surprised and excited by the news. She and Principal Michael Zweifel said sta members are still deciding exactly what to buy, but the $1,000 will go toward equipment for the whole school.

“It’s super-exciting that (McWilliams and her class) did this, and got this grant for the school,” Zweifel said.

McWilliams said she’s been doing the NFL PLAY 60 Movement Moment Matchups with her rst-

graders for a few years. It helps encourage physical activity and has become an ideal physical and mental break between subjects, she said.

e organization hosts the matchups every week of the NFL season, mirroring the teams’ schedules and asking students to follow along with on-demand exercise videos, according to a Feb. 8 press release.

e students then vote for their favorite exercise in the matchup, and the three classrooms with the most votes win $1,000 grants.

Representatives from the American Heart Association and the NFL stated their goal is to “inspire kids to get moving” for at least 60 minutes a day and support their overall physical and mental health by making exercising fun.

e NFL PLAY 60 exercise library features two- to three-minute exercise videos from each NFL team.

e videos are free and available online year-round.

McWilliams loves football, especially the Denver Broncos, and said the NFL PLAY 60 activities “allow me to incorporate my love of football into the classroom.” Her students have enjoyed doing the activities over the years, and their excitement hit a new level after they found out they’d won the grant, she

described.

“It was a very nice surprise,” she said, adding that she plans to continue doing the activities with her students next year.

She hoped seeing Shelton win would inspire more local teachers to incorporate the NFL PLAY 60 activities and similar exercises into their classrooms. Considering how much Goldenites and Je erson County residents love the outdoors and staying active, she believed the NFL PLAY 60 “provided an opportunity for me to encourage and support those ideals” of a healthy lifestyle in the classroom, she said.

others, are being monitored and evaluated at the zoo’s Helen and Arthur E. Johnson Animal Hospital and its Tropical Discovery.

SeaQuest is a national aquarium business that allows visitors to interact with its aquatic and nonaquatic animals. People for Ethical Treatment of Animals, also known as PETA, has criticized the company for several years.

SeaQuest Littleton, in unincorporated Je erson County, was one of eight company locations in the U.S. e Littleton venue had received multiple local citations and complaints.

Colorado Community Media reported that SeaQuest Littleton’s Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife license was suspended in 2019. At that time, the aquarium was required to remove roughly two dozen species of sh, birds and mammals that fall under CPW’s de nition of wildlife, totaling roughly 200 animals. e aquarium replaced the removed animals with others that didn’t fall under the CPW licensing umbrella.

Following the suspension, SeaQuest did not apply for a license, a CPW spokesperson told Colorado Community Media in a story re-

porting on the aquarium’s recent closure. As a result, SeaQuest Littleton had not held a CPW license since 2019.

Several recent inspection reports from the U.S. Department of Agriculture showed non-compliant issues at the aquarium. Examples include inadequate handling or control of animals during public interactions, unsupervised public interaction with animals, enclosure disrepair, animal injuries, insucient sanitation and failure to document medication delivery.

A company statement on Facebook did not say speci cally why SeaQuest Littleton closed, but said it will continue its operations in “states that support (its) interactive business model.”

e Denver Zoo has taken in about 130 SeaQuest animals. Some of the rehomed creatures are new species to the zoo.

“We have a number of rescued animals living here at the zoo and take the responsibility of bringing in these animals very seriously,” Vescolani said in the news release.

e Denver Zoo is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and is home to about 3,000 animals.

Miners Alley takes audiences to a modern Algonquin

If you set a play in a senior facility, most people probably would expect something either really sad or overly saccharine. But that’s not what audiences will get at Paul Stroili’s “A Jukebox for the Algonquin.”

“I wrote about the experiences I’d had working at a nursing home — you do see some very sad things, but you also see incredible joy and community,” Stroili said. “It’s not a play about ailments and stu like that. It’s a serious comedy about sex, drugs and rocking chairs.”

“A Jukebox for the Algonquin,” makes its regional premiere at Miners Alley Performing Arts Center, 1100 Miners Alley in Golden, from Friday, March 1 through Sunday, April 7. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. ursday through Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday.

e show takes place in Placid Pines Senior Care Center, where former Brooklyn and Bronx residents decide that instead of staring at a sh tank all day, they’d rather have a jukebox. But since they don’t have the money to buy one, they have to gure out the best way to scrounge the funds up.

“It’s a beautifully constructed show that reminds me of a great Neil Simon play,” said Len Matheo, Miners Alley’s producing artistic director and director of the production. “It has these great jokes that come organically out of a situation and it tells a deep and moving story at the same time. It’s very exciting to direct

a play like this.”

e cast features Abby Apple Boes, Edith Weiss, Dwayne Carrington, Chris Kendall, Arlene Hicks, John Hauser and

is is only the third time the play has been produced — it premiered in August 2023 at e Purple Rose eatre Company in Chelsea, Michigan, which is founded by award-winning actor Je Daniels. Its second production was also in Michigan and when Matheo read it, he knew it’d be a perfect t for Miners Alley.

“Something we’re trying to now is a lot more new work from around the country, not just Colorado,” he said. “We want to host regional premieres of great work happening all around the country.”

For Stroili, getting a chance to perform in his own show and help bring it to life at the same time is a special treat. He just hopes people enjoy getting to know the Placid Pines residents as much as he did.

“I hope audiences come away surprised,” he said. “ ese characters are not just warm and fuzzy — they’re real people. I hope they fall in love with the characters because they’ve spent quality time with people who have become their friends.”

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Cat Power at the Paramount Theatre

Fans of rock history know that Bob Dylan’s 1965-1966 tour is one of the most consequential in music history. It was during this tour he made the switch from folk troubadour to seminal rock gure — a change that many of his fans had di culty embracing. One of the most famous tour stops was at London’s Royal Albert Hall and last year singer/songwriter Cat Power covered the show in full, bringing her own haunting take to the classic performance. In a lovely example of closing a loop, Cat Power is now touring behind her version, so audiences at the Paramount eatre, 1621 Glenarm Place in Denver, will be treated to her performance of Dylan’s famous performance. She’ll be there at 8 p.m. on Monday, March 4. Get tickets at www.ticketmaster. com.

Being able to walk away from politics

ack in college I knew a guy who had the most raging political ambition imaginable. It controlled just about every facet of his life. Once I went to his dorm room to give him some money and in that room, he had a life-sized picture of Nixon. It was the 80s and I did a double take and wondered why he had that. I thought he was channeling Alex P. Keaton, perhaps. He sensed my discomfort and immediately said in an attempt to explain that he had

a life-sized picture of Nixon because he could not nd one of Goldwater who of course was a better conservative. I said “Uh huh” and got out of there. Later on, some football players stole the picture and sent him a ransom note, “We have your

Dick” it said. Ouch.

He detailed his plans for elected o ce to me as a career politician in great detail. Had his plans from 1988 materialized, he would have been elected Governor of a midwestern state back in 2016. at never happened, although he was elected to statewide o ce in that midwestern state. He ultimately had to resign his o ce because of severe ethical lapses that resulted in a criminal prosecution. He had his law license

suspended for two years and I have no idea what became of him after his sad fate. In some ways, I feel bad for him that he made the choices he did.

When you cut corners and make politics your whole life and your raison d’etre, it is a recipe for personal as well as political disaster. It is not healthy to focus on all of the nonsensical stu that politics entails to the exclusion of other parts of your life.

Life is busy. ere aren’t enough hours in the day, yet we feel the need to do it all. But do we have to?

Ask for help already LIFE BALANCED

In the three years since we found our small business, TULA – which is an app-based personal assistant service – we’ve learned why people need to ask for help and how we can support our amazing clients.

is list is by no means everyone’s Top 10, but we would guess it might feel pretty relatable to many.

1. ere just isn’t enough time in the day to do it all. We’re starting with the obvious here. But beyond that, what if we reframed it to realize we don’t actually have to do it all, and that asking for help is OK.

2. TO-DO lists are long for everyone, but especially for families and working parents. Don’t compare what’s on your list, or how much you get done, to others. Instead, focus on crossing things o that serve you the most, look for opportunities to outsource others and eliminate or cross o the things that don’t serve you.

3. Dividing up TO-DOs can be stressful and overwhelming in a partnership. If you haven’t already checked out Eve Rodsky’s “Fair Play,” we highly recommend you do so. She has created tools and systems to foster communication, active partnering and mental load management.

4. Doing it all with no partner levels up the stress and can be overwhelming. We’re looking at you, single parents and primary caregivers. Give yourself grace, take inventory of what you can actually accomplish, prioritize what matters most, and focus there rst.

5. Sometimes we just do not want to spend time doing the things on our TO-DO list that are a real drag, and that is OK. Laundry, meal planning, scheduling appointments, nding a handyman, etc. Do these things ever really get checked o ? Outsource whatever you can and move on.

6. If we do manage to nd ways to do all of the things on our list, it can come with a signi cant risk of burnout, re-

sentment and mental overload that is simply not sustainable. Pay attention to those feelings creeping in and take note.

7. Allowing our lists to drive our priorities means we will often miss out on doing the things we love, need and want to do. Kiddo activities, family time, and the one we often sacri ce the most: self-care. Exercise, meditation, creative outlets, passion projects, rest – all these things support us as we support others. It is so important to keep those things on the list.

8. Your time is worth the most, and that’s simple math, really. If what you’d pay to outsource something on your list outweighs the value of your time – in both dollars and relief – you should outsource.

9. Because you can! And you shouldn’t feel guilty. It doesn’t mean you have to pay for help either. Ask a friend, swap time – swap doing the things you like better and vice versa.

10. Shifting your mindset to realize that doing less actually means doing more – more of what matters, more of what lights you up, more of what serves the life you aim to have. Realizing this is an absolute game changer and that realization is both empowering and freeing.

Asking for help is the ultimate life hack – a ex of your con dence to know what you can and can’t do, selfcare while you care for so many others. So, start shifting your mindset away from that feeling of having to do it all, say goodbye to the guilt and lean into what matters most.

Conifer nonprofit helps veterans, service people and civilians

BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Former Lakewood police ocer Erick Perez’s life changed forever in December 2021 when a mass shooter killed ve people, injured his partner and shot at him. But with the help of Conifer nonpro t Faithfully K9 and his dog Chispa, the change marked an unexpected evolution in his life of service — not the end of it.

Chispa, originally adopted as a family pet, is now a service dog. And Perez is a trainer with Faithfully K9 who’s also pursuing a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling.

“It’s been amazing,” Perez said. “Because I went through that therapeutic healing myself, I fell in love with it.

“We’ve been conditioned to be hard and suck it up,” he continued. “But much like we go see a doctor when something hurts in our body,

I think it’s also important to look at our mental health. And a service dog, with its unconditional love and the bond you have, makes a di erence. It’s amazing what a dog can do in your life.”

Conifer resident Cathy Kowalski founded Faithfully K9 in 2018 to help those with disabilities or su ering the e ects of trauma. Unlike service dog organizations that match people with a puppy — requiring years of training — Faithfully K9 works with an individual to train their own dog or puppy as a service dog. Training typically takes 7 to 12 months.

“I saw a void,” said Kowalski, formerly a trainer with Englewoodbased Freedom Service Dogs. “Many times, people had a great dog at home they already had a relationship with, but had to add an already trained dog to their household.

“We also feel these dogs save lives because their owners don’t have to wait 3 to 5 years to get a dog,” she continued. “We work with a lot of veterans who have PTSD. If you have PTSD, you don’t have years to wait.”

Regardless of breed, she said, the canine’s character traits make it uniquely quali ed to be a service animal.

“Dogs don’t judge you,” Kowalski

said. “ ey love you no matter what. ey just want to please you and be there for you — and they bring a smile to your face.”

In 2023, with the help of three trainers, Faithfully K9 graduated 30 dogs from its program. At least 50% of the dogs it trains were adopted as rescues, and training is provided at no cost to veterans or active duty military. Civilians pay a signi cantly discounted rate.

Not every dog makes it through the program, or quali es to participate. Kowalski and her fellow trainers pull on ears, pick up paws and do a variety of other physical tests on each candidate dog. While many service dog programs use speci c breeds, Kowalski said any dog has the capacity to serve.

“A dog must be comfortable with a stranger handling it, not afraid of loud noises, or a tug on the tail,” she said. “If a dog’s growling at me, we’re done. e few dogs that don’t make it usually fail because of problems with people.”

Faithfully K9 trainers work for about a year with each owner/dog pair, typically training in the client’s home and community. eir clients’ range extends from Broomeld south to Castle Rock, and Aurora west to Conifer. Clients from

outside those areas also travel to train with the team.

Saved by a dog

Fort Lupton resident Gabriel Griego is among those clients who felt he had run out of time. e former Marine was medically discharged from the service after suffering an injury. He said he was diagnosed with PTSD stemming in part from childhood and sexual trauma, and struggled with substance abuse. Griego tried multiple medications, but could not shake his dark thoughts and feelings.

“I always joked I took every pill imaginable,” he said. “Half of them made me more suicidal. A lot of it just didn’t work for me and continued to make me feel worse. After my last suicide attempt in 2022, my wife said, ‘We need to gure something out.’”

Griego learned about Faithfully K9 through WarriorNOW, a nonpro t aimed at helping veterans with mental health and other challenges. Kowalski helped him nd Nala, a lab/masti mix who is now a year-and-a-half old. e two began training together when Nala was a puppy.

SERVICE DOGS

e change in Griego’s quality of life has been dramatic. With Nala at his side, his previous struggles with loud noise, crowds and people approaching him from behind have eased. Depression still haunts him, but when it descends, Nala is a warm and soothing presence.

“A year and a month into the training, there are days where it’s still difcult,” he said. “Nala is the one who pulls me out of those days. And the di erent training we do connects me back to myself and to Nala, and calms me down.

“She also helps my wife because Nala realizes when I’m going through a funk,” he said. “She’ll lay on me and just stare at my wife, like she’s saying ‘It’s OK, I got him.’ I’ve put my wife through so much with all the mental health stu ; I’m so grateful that now she can take that breather.”

Griego has also been substance free for two years, which he credits in large part to the help Faithfully K9 has provided.

“I was shocked by everything they do for veterans and rst responders — something so truly life saving at absolutely no cost to us,” he said. “Every veteran I know, we don’t stop ghting. e reason so many of us succumb to suicide is we just want the pain to end.

“ ere are so many people like me that have gone down these dark paths who I hope can stop trying to end their pain in a di erent way,” he continued. “Instead, hang out with a four-legged best friend all day. ings will be a little bit more ok.”

Griego is now working with Suicide Prevention Coaliton of Colorado, where he is focused on helping veterans. And in imitation of her owner, Nala is also extending her reach to help others.

“I take Nala into some of my meetings,” he said. “She’s awesome at picking up on the needs of other people. You see her tail wagging because she’s so excited to help anyone she can.”

Training for success

Kowalski and her team train dogs

in the owner’s homes, and in public. e dogs must learn to ignore distractions — like food, crowds, other dogs and enthusiastic children — and keep the focus on their owner. at makes shopping centers like the Castle Rock Factory Outlets ideal.

Kowalski recently met there with Colorado Springs client Levi Francis, and his six-month goldendoodle Finn. Francis su ered both mental and physical trauma while serving in the military and in childhood. Due to an injury, he also has screws in his feet that make it tough for him to balance.

Francis had been searching for a support dog since 2021 with no success. Other agencies turned down his request for a variety of reasons. Because Francis and his wife foster a variety of animals with disabilities, one said the environment would be too chaotic for training a service dog.

Faithfully K9 saw it di erently. Kowalski said “yes” to Francis’ request, and a nonpro t for which Francis volunteers led him to Finn.

At six months, Finn is tall and broad, and uncharacteristically calm for his age. His copper curls and teddy-bear features draw the attention of children and adults alike, but Finn is nearly unwavering in his focus — which is Francis.

“He’s a giant, dopey, lovable dude,” Francis said. “Our ferrets sleep next to him. He ts in perfectly with our family. We’re training really fast. Overall, he’s pretty amazing. O leash, he acts like a puppy. In training, he’s always listening.”

Like Nala, Finn has learned to sit or stand between Francis’ legs on command, a posture that allows Francis to physically connect with the dog, diverting his focus from any fears or anxiety-inducing distractions. Because of his size, Finn also helps his owner with balance issues resulting from the screws in his feet.

work with.”

He’s an ideal helpmate for Francis, whose hypervigilance and triggers are slowly easing.

“I’ve been able to go out a lot more,” he said. “I’m being less watchful just because he distracts me. My wife was surprised the other day because I o ered to go to the movies. He’s a fantastic partner to

Faithfully K9 has a thick book of similar success stories. It also has far more demand for services than resources to meet it.

“We have over 60 clients we’re working with, and I have more people calling me every day,” Kowalski said. “We have dogs working with therapists and psychiatrists in schools. We do skilled companions for rst responders. We work with a

lot of re ghters and police o cers. We are always struggling to nd donations.”

Despite those ongoing struggles, Kowalski is tireless in her mission. For her, it is a calling.

“I do this to help people,” she said. “I believe that’s why we’re here on this planet. Just making a di erence in one person’s life is worth it.”

Former Japanese internment camp joins national park system

BY EMMA VANDENEINDE KUNC

Amache, a former Japanese internment camp in far southeastern Colorado, is now o cially part of the national park system.

e site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994, and later named a National Historic Landmark in 2006. President Joe Biden signed the Amache National Historic Site Act in 2022, pushing the site even further to national park status.

But the land still had to be transferred by the town of Granada before it could be o cial. Without that piece, no federal funding could be put into the site.

“As a nation, we must face the wrongs of our past in order to build a more just and equitable future,” said Deb Haaland, the Secretary of the Interior, in a press release. “Today’s establishment of the Amache National Historic Site will help preserve and honor this important and painful chapter in our nation’s story for future generations.”

Before becoming part of the National Park system, a local history teacher—John Hopper—recruited some of his high school students to create a museum for the site and collect heirlooms from survivors to display.

“I think without them, there would not be Amache as a national park,” Carlene Tinker, an Amache

survivor, said. “I really feel that way.”

Many survivors like Tinker have fought for greater recognition of the site for their whole lives. She was three years old when she was forced to live at the camp.

“My rst reaction was nally, okay, nally,” she said. “It’s a very proud moment. I’m thinking about all the people who endured the incarceration experience, and thatnally their story is being told.

At its peak, Amache — also known as the Granada Relocation Center — housed more than 7,000 Japanese-Americans during the 1940s. ey were forced to live behind barbed wire in poorly-insulated rooms. is was one of ten other Japanese internment camps that existed during World War II, with some being located in the Mountain West.

Mitch Homma’s grandparents and their kids were also imprisoned at the camp. He wishes more of his relatives were alive to see this historical moment.

“My dad’s older sister just passed away,” he said. “She was hoping she was gonna be around and see it come to fruition and stu . But, you know, we got it done.”

e camp served meals that were

di erent than what they were used to — eggs, potatoes and hot dogs, to name a few. Homma’s dad died at the camp after not eating the food. He re ected on what his dad would have said about the news.

“I think he would have been totally surprised,” he said. “ e one statement he said back then was, ‘ ey didn’t care about us in 1942, and I don’t think enough people care about us now,” he said, getting emotional. “And now it’s happening and, you know, it’s pretty special.”

Some survivors, like Gary Ono, are happy that younger people are taking an interest in the park before he and many others pass away.

“I just turned 84 last week, so I know that I feel my mortality,” he said. “As we all pass on, we just hope that our history will continue. So just having Amache as a National Park Service site will help to preserve and keep telling the story.”

Amache is open to the public now, and will start to undergo some improvements of transforming the signage and working on the roads. ere will be an o cial ribbon cutting ceremony on May 17th. is story runs via e Associated Press’ Storyshare, of which Colorado Community Media is a member.

UCHealth sues thousands of patients, but its name is not on lawsuits

BY JOHN INGOLD AND CHRIS VANDERVEEN THE COLORADO SUN AND 9NEWS

e ring sparkled: 18-karat white gold, double-banded, with a 1.5-carat diamond at its center.

It was the ring that Cathy WoodsSullivan’s late husband had given to her on their wedding day, a family heirloom. Other than their two teenage daughters, it was the most precious thing she had left.

She handed it forward to the pawnbroker feeling sick to her stomach.

He looked at her, then at the ring, then back up at her.

“I’m going to hold onto it for a little while,” he said.

But Woods-Sullivan knew she wouldn’t be back.

She needed the money to pay o a debt to UCHealth, Colorado’s largest hospital system, one that collects more than $6 billion a year in revenue from patient care.

“We improve lives,” UCHealth touts in its mission statement.

But this same system sues thousands of its patients like WoodsSullivan every year, according to a 9News/Colorado Sun investigation done in partnership with the Colorado News Collaborative and KFF Health News.

What’s more, many of these lawsuits are shielded from public scrutiny through a system in which col-

lection companies working with UCHealth le lawsuits in their own names. Taken together, UCHealth and these companies led 15,710 lawsuits from 2019 through 2023, UCHealth revealed in response to questions from 9News and the Colorado Sun. at is an average of 3,142 lawsuits per year, or more than eight per day.

In the last four years, virtually none of the lawsuits have been led in UCHealth’s name.

“ ey are essentially deliberately using those third-party collection agencies to obscure the fact that they are the ones suing the patients,” said Adam Fox, the deputy director of the Colorado Consumer Health Initiative, a consumer-advocacy group that helps patients in disputes over medical bills. “It makes it really hard for the patient to untangle.”

One of these debt collection companies working for UCHealth sued Woods-Sullivan over a bill from an emergency visit for chest pains. She tried at rst to ght in court, then eventually entered into a payment plan to settle the case.

But when the stress of arguing with the debt collector over how much she still owed after every check was too much, she decided she wanted to be done.

She looked through her house for something she could sell.

“It was beautiful, beautiful,” she said of her ring. “But I had to do what I had to do. I was tired of getting the runaround.

“It was all I had.”

Woods-Sullivan owed UCHealth $1,634.34.

e health system, which as a nonpro t community institution is exempt from paying taxes, recorded $839 million in total pro ts last year.

In a given year, UCHealth’s network of 14 hospitals and more than 200 clinics treats almost 3 million unique patients — a number equivalent to roughly half the state’s population.

From those patients, UCHealth estimates that 99.93% of bills are resolved without involving the courts.

“Our job is to stay out of the courts,” UCHealth’s chief legal ofcer, Jacki Cooper Melmed said. “ at is the very last resort.”

Until now, no one outside UCHealth knew how many lawsuits the system had actually led, though, due to the collections practice UCHealth has adopted. e hospital system “assigns” the debt to a debt collector without relinquishing ownership of the debt.

e debt collector — UCHealth

currently uses two and has used a third in the past — then les the lawsuits against the patients in its own name, which is often nondescript. Credit Service Company. CollectionCenter, Inc.

e debt collector gets a cut of whatever money comes from the lawsuit — Cooper Melmed did not say how much — with the rest going back to UCHealth.

Most often, no publicly available court document contains UCHealth’s name, making the system’s involvement in these suits invisible to lawmakers, to state regulators and to the public at-large.

Woods-Sullivan said she initially had no idea who was suing her.

“It was so confusing to me,” said Woods-Sullivan, who is now a plainti in a lawsuit challenging the legality of UCHealth’s debt lawsuits. “I spent two days trying to reach out to people ... just going through the process of trying to resolve the issue with the bill.”

e amount UCHealth collects from lawsuits is about $5 million per year, according to the health system. at represents 0.07% of the net patient revenue that UCHealth reported receiving last year.

UCHealth o cials argue the lawsuits are an unfortunate necessity in the health care business, where sometimes bills go unpaid and hospitals need money to continue operating.

I know several who walked away from political o ce. Like Cincinnatus returning to his plow after his service as Consul, they are honorable people who did more than their fair share. I also know others who are staying in the political game as best they can for any number of di erent reasons. Hopefully, that accomplishes something for the greater good.

Walking away from politics and having a life outside of it is the hallmark of real conservatism. In an

ideal world if you run for o ce you should go into it with the notion that you wish to accomplish something tangible like lowering taxes or advocating for charter schools. en you leave. You should not use an o ce whether elected or a party o ce as a springboard for some higher o ce. It should be OK to walk away either permanently or just temporarily. Unchecked ambition can blind or destroy those who might have begun with the best of intentions. Philosophers often say the only people who should be trusted with power are those who do not seek it.

Plan protects future oil leasing on Colorado lands

BY ERIC GALATAS PUBLIC NEWS SERVICE

The Bureau of Land Management has released its final Eastern Colorado Resource Management Plan, which will guide the use and management of over 658,000 acres of public lands for decades to come.

Conservation geographer Alison Gallensky with Rocky Mountain Wild said the plan does a good job of increasing protections for some 300,000 currently undeveloped acres, mostly along the Arkansas River between Salida and Canon City.

“By setting aside several hundred thousand acres,” said Gallensky,

“to stay the way they are now, for wildlife, for the headwaters for the di erent tributaries into the Arkansas River.”

In addition to protecting areas for hiking, mountain biking, shing, and hunting - which bring over $54 million into local economiesGallensky said these lands support healthy ecosystems that can help species survive in a changing climate.

Some environmental groups criticized the BLM’s plan for keeping most acres open to oil and gas leasing, but the Western Energy Alliance defended the agency for balancing development with conservation.

The plan paves the way for fu -

ture oil and gas production on BLM-managed lands in northeastern Colorado, where current production has been linked to a rise in harmful ground-level ozone pollution and the state’s failure to meet Environmental Protection Agency clean air standards.

Gallensky said the plan, which has been in the works for nearly a decade, includes old analysis on the true risks of drilling.

“ ere’s been a lot of new information learned about the impacts of oil and gas development and how to transition to cleaner forms of energy,” said Gallensky. “And that wasn’t as well integrated into the plan as it could have been.”

The plan takes thousands of acres off the table for drilling, but those acres are considered to have very low potential for tapping oil and gas.

Advocates say they will ask the Colorado BLM to address the threats of continued fossil fuel development, the primary driver of climate change, by strengthening their Big Game Resource Management Plan Amendment, which is currently accepting public comments.

e report echoes analysis by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City which identi ed price gouging as the driving factor for in ation during the height of the pandemic.

Some economists have argued these price hikes were due to companies bracing for future production costs, while others note corporate CEOs have a legal obligation to maximize pro ts for shareholders.

Pancotti said while production costs did rise by 1% in 2023, consumer prices still rose by 3.4%.

She added that for the past three years, CEOs have bragged on shareholder earnings calls about high

pro ts linked to raising prices.

“Even though their wage costs or their input prices have gone up, they are able to completely o set those by charging consumers more,” said Pancotti. “So you don’t have to listen to us, they’ve said it themselves.”

An economist at a leading global investment bank has warned that greed ation could lead to widespread social unrest.

Pancotti noted that the Trump administration’s 2017 tax cuts gave corporations a tax break for pro teering, and those incentives are set to expire in 2025.

Mines basketball teams see mixed results in final weekend on the road

Orediggers preparing for March 1-2 Senior Night games

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e Colorado School of Mines basketball teams and their fans had a very weird weekend on the road, with historic highs, heartbreaking lows and a dash of the unexpected thrown in for good measure.

On Feb. 23, the men’s and women’s basketball teams made the 15-minute trip to Lakewood’s Colorado Christian for their rst games of the weekend. e women’s team battled in a close game that went down to the wire, as the Orediggers were down three points with 10 seconds left.

Unfortunately, the Orediggers’ nal play didn’t take and the Cougars won 71-68, avenging their Jan. 6 defeat at Mines.

As the Mines and CCU men’s teams took the court for the pregame warm-ups, one of the backboards shattered, breaking the rim. e teams were forced to postpone their game until Feb. 26.

Both sets of Orediggers then made the vehour trek Chadron, Nebraska, where they hoped to get their momentum going against Chadron State. Happily for their fans, they did.

e women’s team bounced back, beating the Eagles 83-72 thanks to solid e orts from senior guards Ashley Ste eck and Loralee Stock.

e men’s team also won 74-56, making history twice-over in the process.

Coach Pryor Orser became the winningest coach in Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference history with 442 wins. Orser, who’s in his 23rd season as Mines head coach, surpassed Bob Hofman of Western Colorado and Fort Lewis fame.

Senior guard Majok Deng, who graduatetransferred to Mines from Pepperdine, also made Oredigger history with a 42-point game. He’s now the sixth Oredigger to score 40-plus points in a game, and the rst to do so since the 2004-05 season.

Both teams are wrapping up the regular season with March 1-2 against Adams State and Fort Lewis. e Orediggers will also be celebrating their departing seniors. For more information, visit MinesAthletics.com.

Colorado Pond Hockey Tournament draws thousands to Georgetown Lake

At least 300 teams of six players competed on 24 individual rinks over three days

BY CHRIS KOEBERL CKOEBERL@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e annual Colorado Pond Hockey Tournament was held on the ice of Georgetown Lake for the rst time, but it wasn’t supposed to be there.

It was scheduled to take place on Dillon Reservoir.

However, two weeks before the tournament started, Feb. 16 organizers say heavy equipment started falling through the thin ice and into the reservoir.

“Dillon’s ice is way too thin; they unfortunately lost two skid steers in the water,” event coordinator and Georgetown public information ofcer Jess Jones said.

Georgetown residents and town employees worked together feverishly to set up the two dozen individual hockey rinks and found parking and vendors to welcome the more than 1,800 players, their families and spectators, according to Jones.

Jones said it took “a lot of group e ort.”

“It’s a community event,” Jones said. “Everybody wants to help out one way or another.”

ey pulled it o and teams took to the ice over three days to compete for the championship on Sunday, Feb. 18.

e players came from across the country, and for some of them, the annual tournament is a family tradition.

even the kids got some time on the ice, preparing to one day compete in the tournament themselves. at included ve-year-old Jake Murphy from Colorado Springs. His dad Jez was competing as his mom Alexa watched while caring for the family’s three year old, Summer.

“Well, we were making him skate on the path and he was mad because it wasn’t the real skating rink, he was also looking for sh under there,” Alexa Murphy said, smiling.

Ben Anderson and his 22-year-old son traveled to Georgetown from Austin, Texas to compete together with the Anonymous Hockey Club.

“It’s a parent’s dream to be able to participate in any kind of event or project with your kiddos and see them enjoy it,” Anderson said. “ at’s worth everything right there.”

e 30-minute games included a 10-minute break at halftime and every rink was lled with players competing.

ere were a few ghts and minor

brawls, according to tournament volunteer Jen Lofton, but overall she said it was a friendly and family atmosphere.

special use permit, such dwelling unit may be used as a short-term rental where allowed per chapter 18.28, and pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, provided that the party and property to be licensed meet the requirements for a short-term rental, as set forth in section 18.22.080 of this chapter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party who has been granted a special use permit to use a dwelling unit as a “tourist home” in the R-3 zone district prior to March 8, 2018, and who, at the time of approval of the special use permit, did not occupy such unit as his or her primary residence, is exempt from the primary residence and owner occupancy requirements provided in sections 18.22.080(b) and (e), but only if the use of the property is converted to a short-term rental within 180 days of the termination of the special use permit. Such exemption shall be available only to the individual(s) that were the fee owners of record of the property on March 8, 2018, and may not be assigned or conveyed with the property.

* * * (f) Parking requirements. Parking requirements for the property shall meet the number of off-street parking spaces as would otherwise be required to serve commercial uses for the specific area of the city in which the licensed premises is located, as set forth in sections 18.36.025 and 18.36.030. Nonconforming Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in section 18.36.010 or 18.44.510, properties with nonconforming parking shall be required to come into compliance with applicable parking requirements or obtain (a variance from the parking requirements may also be used to demonstrate compliance). The location of required parking shall be identified in the license application.

* * * 18.29.06.005.1.b. Streetscapes and Sidewalks.

Section 5. Section 18.29.06.005.1.b is amended as follows (strikeout means deleted, underline means inserted, * * * means large block of unmodified text) [Section modifies and adds to existing 18.29.06.005.1.b].

* * *

1. The minimum sidewalk width is 7 ft. A five-foot sidewalk width, with or without a landscape strip, may be applicable and appropriate on Local Streets given the existing context of the block. Landscape strips, when required, shall meet the standards of 18.29.06.005.1.d.

Examples of when a 5-foot sidewalk is appropriate include:

• When an existing sidewalk on a Local Street is 5 ft. and not expected to change due to the existing lot and block pattern; or

• When expanding to 7 ft. would run into retaining walls, utility poles, or remove quality vegetation.

2. In addition, the sidewalk width may be reduced in order to integrate the sidewalk into the existing sidewalk network, if the application demonstrates that the sidewalk will be installed, repaired, or modified in such manner as to be safe and compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines and:

A. Existing pedestrian traffic is minimal and not anticipated to materially increase; and a

B. A 7 ft. wide sidewalk would create an obvious disruption of the sidewalk or landscape strip pattern along the same side of the block. [See illustration 18.29.06.005.A]; or

B. The application is for a site modification and/or building expansion that is located only in the middle or rear building envelope area (“BEA”) as to form types that have BEA-specific standards, or more than 50 ft. from the street as to form types that do not have BEAspecific standards; or

C. A 7 ft. wide sidewalk would cause an existing driveway to be less than 18 ft. long when measured from the edge of the sidewalk; or

D.There is insufficient dimension to accommodate a 7 ft. wide sidewalk; or

E. Utility conflicts, drainage infrastructure conflicts, or other challenges make provision of a 7 ft. wide sidewalk into compliance undesirable from a construction and long-term service perspective; or

F. Installation of a 7 ft. wide sidewalk would cause one or more existing, healthy trees on the “recommended plant list” that are a least 2 in. DBH to be removed or damaged.

* * * Section 6. Section 18.29.06.005.1.d. is amended as follows (strikeout means deleted, underline means inserted, * * * means large block of unmodified text) [Modifies and adds to existing section 18.29.06.005.1.d.2].

2. However, the landscape strip width may be reduced in order to integrate the sidewalk into the existing rightof-way design, if the application demonstrates that:

A. A 7 ft. wide landscape strip would create an obvious disruption of the sidewalk pattern along the same side of the block (e.g., if the existing landscape strip is narrower or the existing sidewalk is attached); or

B. Provision of a 7 ft. wide landscape strip would interfere with the continuity of front lot lines along the block face or result in a jog in the sidewalk.; or

C. The application is for a site modification and/or building expansion that is located in the middle or rear building envelope area (“BEA”) as to form types that have BEA-specific standards, or more than 50 feet from the street as to form types that do not have BEAspecific standards; or

D. A 7 ft. wide landscape strip would cause an existing driveway to be less than 18 feet long when measured from the edge of the sidewalk; or

E. There is insufficient dimension to accommodate a 7 ft. wide landscape strip; or

F. Utility conflicts, drainage infrastructure conflicts, or other challenges make provision of a 7 ft. wide landscape strip undesirable from a construction and longterm service perspective; or

G. Installation of a 7 ft. wide landscape strip would cause one or more existing, healthy trees on the “recommended plant list” that are a least 2 in. DBH to be removed or damaged.

18.30.020 - Specific procedure.

Special use permits before the planning commission shall conform to the following specific procedure: * * *

(9) Special use permits shall may be approved for a period not to exceed five (5) years not be granted periods exceeding five years except for the following uses which shall be eligible for a special use permit with no time limit:

(a) Public transportation structures and facilities, but not including offices, vehicle or equipment maintenance and storage uses, or park and ride facilities.

Chapter 18.44 NONCONFORMING USES AND BUILDINGS

Division I INTRODUCTION -

18.44.110 Purpose.

(a) Generally. The application of new regulations to existing development may create circumstances in which existing lot dimensions, density, intensity, land uses, buildings, structures, landscaping and buffering, lighting, parking areas, or signs do not strictly conform to the requirements of the new regulations. For existing lots or development (including uses, buildings, structures, and signs) that are legally nonconforming to the standards in this Title, this Chapter sets out equitable rules for whether, when, and how the regulations of this Title apply.

(b) Conversion of Nonconformities. Except as provided in this Chapter, nonconforming situations are not allowed to be enlarged, expanded, or made more nonconforming. Nonconforming situations shall not be used as grounds for adding other uses, buildings, structures, signs, or improvements that are now prohibited in the same zoning district. This Chapter provides standards and procedures by which nonconforming uses and other nonconformities can be converted to conforming status.

(c) Reduction of Nonconformities. It is the policy of the City to encourage reinvestments in property that increase its value and utility and reduce its external impacts. Since bringing a developed property into full compliance with this Title may involve substantial costs that may discourage reinvestment, or may require premature demolition of buildings or structures and other physical features of the property, that are economically productive and structurally sound, this Chapter provides certain thresholds and priorities for determining when new construction or modifications to development implicate a requirement for increasing conformity with the various requirements of this Title.

18.44.120 Application.

(a) Generally. This Chapter applies to uses, buildings, structures, landscaping, buffering, signs, lighting, access or parking, density, and lots that were:

(1) Lawfully established, constructed, installed, platted, or created prior to the effective date, but do not conform to the requirements of this Title; or

(2)Lawfully established, constructed, installed, platted, or created in one legacy use zone, form zone, or planned unit development district, but no longer conform to the requirements of this Title after the subject property is rezoned.

(b) Effect of Chapter. Nothing in this Chapter shall be interpreted to require a change in plans, construction, or designated use of any building in which a building permit was lawfully obtained from the City prior to the effective date of this Title or subsequent amendment, provided that construction:

(1) Was commenced before the expiration of the building permit; and

(2)Work is proceeding diligently toward completion.

(c) Changes of Ownership. Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to affect or restrict changes in ownership or the form of ownership, nor shall changes in ownership or the form of ownership affect the application of any of the requirements of this Chapter.

(d) Evidence of Status. Evidence that a nonconforming situation is a legal nonconformity and not a violation of this Title shall be submitted by the owner of the property or use upon request of the Director.

18.44.130 Exceptions to Chapter.

(a) One-Household Detached Dwelling Units in Certain Form Zones.

(1) All lots of record within the core, transition, edge, outer edge, peripheral, or neighborhood corridor form zones, regardless of their size, and all existing principal buildings, accessory dwelling units, and detached garage buildings on said lots, regardless of setbacks, height, floor area, design features, or other dimensions, are deemed to be conforming to this Title if the use of the lot is a one-household detached dwelling unit. Principal buildings, accessory dwelling units, and detached garage buildings may be restored or reconstructed to their original exterior form and dimensions. Changes from the original structure to the external dimensions of principal buildings, detached accessory dwelling units, and detached garages shall conform to the requirements of this Title as it applies to the proposed change.

(2) All lots of record within the core, transition, edge, outer edge, peripheral, or neighborhood corridor form zones, regardless of their area, may be developed with a house or cottage form type that corresponds most closely to the available lot area and lot frontage, and for which the access required by the form type is available, provided that the Director determines that there is sufficient lot area for construction of the proposed building, and that safe ingress to and egress from the lot is not compromised by the lot’s dimensions.

(b) One-Household Detached Dwelling Units in Legacy Use Zones. All lots of record within the RE, CO, and AG legacy use zones, regardless of their size, and all existing principal buildings, accessory dwelling units, and detached garage buildings on said lots, regardless of setbacks, height, floor area, or other dimensions, are deemed to be conforming to this Title if the use of the lot is a one-household detached dwelling unit. Principal buildings, accessory dwelling units, and detached garage buildings may be restored or reconstructed to their original exterior form and dimensions. Changes to the external dimensions of principal buildings and detached garages shall conform to the requirements of this Title as it applies to the proposed change.

(c) Partitions. Lots that are created by judicial partition are deemed to be conforming lots.

(d) Vested Rights. This Chapter does not apply to sitespecific development plans for which rights are vested, during the period of vested rights.

(e) Natural Shifts of Zone Boundaries. If a zone boundary changes as a result of a change in location of a river, stream, or ditch channel centerline, other natural boundary-defining feature, or street, such change of zone boundary does not render existing development nonconforming.

(f) Taking for Public Use. Any nonconforming building, structure, parking, or lot that is expressly created or caused by a conveyance of privately-owned land to a Federal, State, or local government to serve a public purpose is conforming for the purposes of this Title, and is not subject to limitations in this Chapter. This exemption applies in cases where private land is obtained by a governmental entity for a public purpose, through condemnation, threat of condemnation, or otherwise, when that transaction would otherwise create a nonconformity in the remainder parcel in terms of setback, lot area, or other standards of this Title. However, this exemption does not apply to right-of-way dedication or other public conveyances of land required by the City in the course of subdivision, site plan, or other development approvals.

(g) Unlawful Uses, Buildings, or Structures. This Chapter does not allow for the perpetuation of uses or improvements upon land that were unlawful at the time they were established or constructed. Such development is not legally nonconforming, but instead, unlawful, and is subject to all of the provisions of this Title (including enforcement provisions) and any other applicable law.

Division II NONCONFORMING USES -

18.44.210 Continuation of Nonconforming Use.

Subject to the provisions of this Chapter, a nonconforming use may be continued and maintained in reasonable repair, and may be expanded, cumulatively, by up 25 percent of its footprint as same existed on the effective date of this Title, or 800 square feet, whichever is greater, provided that such expansion does not create additional physical nonconformity. For the purposes of this Section, the extension of a nonconforming use to a portion of an existing building or structure that was designed, constructed, and permitted for the nonconforming use at the time of adoption of this Title is not an extension of a nonconforming use.

18.44.220 Change of Nonconforming Use.

If an area of a subject property that is put to a nonconforming use is subsequently put to a new, different use, then all use of that area shall thereafter conform to the applicable use regulations of the zoning district in which the subject property is located.

18.44.230 Discontinuance of Nonconforming Use.

(a) Generally.

(1)Nonconforming uses that are discontinued are subject to the limitations of this Section. In general, a nonconforming use is discontinued on the day the use ceases to operate (the beginning of the period of nonuse), and resumed on the earlier of:

(i) The day the use actually resumes; or

(ii) The day a building permit is issued for improvements that are necessary or desirable to resume the

use, provided that the building permit does not lapse.

(2) The threshold period of non-use may be extended for up to 18 additional months if the owner of the subject property demonstrates that during the extension period the subject property was actively marketed to potential purchasers or tenants for the purposes of continuing the nonconforming use. The extension available pursuant to this subsection (a)(2) is available only if such marketing commences within six months after the date the use is discontinued.

(b) Nonconforming Uses that Involve Buildings or Structures. If a nonconforming use of all or part of a building or structure is discontinued for longer than the threshold period of non-use set out in Table 18.44.230, Threshold Period of Non-Use, then further use thereof shall conform to the requirements of this Title. For the purposes of this Section, a fence that encloses an open area that is put to a nonconforming use does not constitute a “structure,” and such nonconforming uses are subject to subsection (c), below.

Table 18.44.230, Threshold Period of Non-Use

Circumstances Threshold Period of Non-Use

Generally One year (continuous) (not specifically covered below)

Drive-through facilities Two years (continuous)

All other uses for which all Five years (continuous) or part of the building or structure in which they take place is specifically designed for the nonconforming use to which it is put, such that adaptive re-use of all or the affected part of the building or structure for a conforming use will be prohibitively costly or require demolition of the building or structure

(c) Nonconforming Uses that Do Not Involve Buildings or Structures. If a nonconforming use not involving a building or structure is discontinued for a period of six months, further use of the subject property shall conform to the requirements of this Title.

18.44.240 Conversion of a Nonconforming Use to a Conforming Use.

(a) Generally. In many instances, nonconforming uses may be integral parts of the City’s character and function, such that their continuing existence promotes the City’s policy of retaining existing businesses and institutions or protecting the City’s character and neighborhoods. In these instances, the classification nonconforming use and resulting restriction on investment may not be what the City desires. As such, a nonconforming use may be made conforming pursuant to this Section in order to remove the potential stigma associated with the nonconforming designation.

(b) Limitation. Unlawful uses may not be made conforming under this Section.

(c) Conversion by Special Use Permit Approval; Standards. A special use permit approval may be granted to make a nonconforming use conforming, if:

(1) The criteria for approval of a special use that are set out in Section 18.30.020(8) are met; and

(2)The use has been integrated into the function of its surrounding block (including properties across the street), as evidenced by the following:

(i) City residents regularly patronize the use or are employed by the use (for nonresidential uses in or adjacent to residential neighborhoods).

(iii)Management practices mitigate or eliminate nuisances such as:

(A) Spillover of noise or light;

(B)Odors and/or appearance of waste materials and litter; or

(C) Congestion of on-street parking that materially interferes with the operation of the streets within two blocks of the use.

(iv) There is no material history of complaints about the use (a history of complaints is justification for denying the special use permit, unless the conditions of the permit will eliminate the basis of the complaints).

(3) If the use is nonresidential, it is licensed in accordance with any applicable ordinances of the City.

(4) The use has been maintained in good condition and

its classification as a nonconforming use would be a disincentive for such maintenance.

(d) Conditions. Conditions may be imposed relative to physical conditions or operations (including limitations on future expansion), that the Planning Commission determines are necessary to ensure that, as a conforming use, the use will not become a nuisance. Such conditions may include, but are not limited to, changes or upgrades to infrastructure, buildings, structures, lighting, landscaping, driveways, parking, drainage, or hours of operation of the use.

(e) Effect of Approval. Uses that comply with the terms of a special use permit that is issued in accordance with this Section and Chapter 18.30, Special Use Permits, are converted from legally nonconforming uses to conforming uses by virtue of the issuance of the special use permit, and are subject to its terms. Special use permit approvals shall be provided to the Applicant in writing and may be recorded by the Applicant at the Applicant’s expense.

(f) Effect of Denial. If an application for conversion of a nonconforming use is denied, the use shall thereafter retain its status as a nonconforming use, and shall continue to be subject to all applicable provisions of this Chapter 18.44.

Division III NONCONFORMING BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES -

18.44.310 Repairs or Modifications to a Nonconforming Building or Structure.

(a) Ordinary repairs and maintenance of a nonconforming building or structure are permitted.

(b)A building or structure (other than a sign) that is located on a subject property that is conforming as to use, but is nonconforming as to height, setback, or coverage, may be altered or extended, provided that the alteration or extension does not result in a further violation of this Title or applicable Building Codes.

18.44.320 Damage to a Nonconforming Building or Structure.

A nonconforming building or structure that has been damaged or destroyed by fire or other causes may be restored to its original condition, unless the Director determines that the nonconforming situation on the property is correlated to the casualty event; provided that building permits that are required for such restoration are applied for within one year of the event and do not lapse after issuance. Extensions may be approved by the Director if the property owner or representative demonstrates reasonable effort and diligence to comply with the application and work timelines.

18.44.330 Conversion of a Nonconforming Building or Structure to a Conforming Building or Structure.

(a) Generally. In many instances, nonconforming buildings or structures may be integral parts of the City’s character and function, so their continuing existence promotes the City’s policy of retaining existing businesses or protecting its character and neighborhoods, as well as reducing unnecessary carbon emissions and conserving natural resources. In these instances, the classification nonconforming building or structure and resulting restriction on investment may not be what the City desires. As such, a nonconforming building or structure may be made conforming pursuant to this Section in order to remove the potential stigma associated with the nonconforming designation.

(b) Limitation. This Section does not apply to nonconformities involving the Building Code.

(c) Application of Variances, Adjustments, and Other Flexibility.

(1) A building or structure that is authorized by variance, adjustment, or other administrative procedure in this Title that allows for departures from or alternatives to the generally applicable standards of this Title shall not be considered nonconforming as to the standards that were varied, adjusted, or otherwise modified.

(2) A nonconforming building or structure may be made conforming by way of a variance, adjustment, or any other administrative procedure in this Title that allows for departures from or alternatives to the standards of this Title that create the nonconformity. If a variance under Chapter 18.12, Appeals and Variances under Title 18, is used for this purpose, then with regard to Section 18.12.030, the existence of the nonconformity shall constitute peculiar and exceptional and undue hardship.

(d) Conditions. Conditions may be imposed relative to physical conditions (including limitations on future building or structure expansion) that the decisionmaker determines are necessary to ensure that, as a Continued to Next Page No. 418107

Public Notices

Continued From Last Page 3 of 3

conforming building or structure, the building or structure will not become a nuisance. Such conditions may include, but are not limited to, changes or upgrades to infrastructure, buildings, structures, lighting, landscaping, parking, or drainage.

(e) Effect of Approval. Buildings or structures that are approved as provided in this Section are converted from legally nonconforming buildings or structures to conforming buildings or structures by virtue of the issuance of the approval, subject to its terms. Such approvals shall be provided to the Applicant in writing and may be recorded by the Applicant at the Applicant’s expense.

(f) Effect of Denial. If an application for conversion of a nonconforming building or structure is denied, the building or structure shall thereafter retain its status as a nonconforming building or structure.

Division IV NONCONFORMING SIGNS -

18.44.410 Application of Division

(a) Determination of Nonconformity. Signs erected before September 14, 1989 are not presumed to be illegal merely because a sign permit is not on file with the City. Other factors, including the size, setback, height and applicable regulations on the date of erection or installation of the sign will be considered in determining whether or not a sign was illegal when erected or installed.

(b) Minor Sign Area or Height Nonconformities. Any existing nonconforming sign for which a sign permit has been issued pursuant to a previously adopted code, excluding prohibited signs, which exceeds only the maximum sign area for each sign or maximum height limitations of this Title, as specified in Chapter 18.32, Signs, by 20 percent or less shall be considered a conforming sign. Such sign may be restored or replaced in its current location, and to its current area, design, materials, and dimensions. However, if any part of the sign (except its content) is materially changed, the sign shall be constructed in conformance to the requirements of Chapter 18.32.

(c) Variance, Special Use Permit, and Planned Unit Development Approvals. All permanent signs that were approved by the City through the variance, special use permit, or planned unit development process, but do not meet the current requirements of this Title, shall be considered conforming signs for so long as they comply with the provisions of the applicable variance, special use permit, or planned unit development approval, and for so long as the variance, special use permit, or planned unit development approval remains in effect. If a variance, special use permit, or planned unit development approval is abandoned, all signs that were approved by the variance, special use permit, or planned unit development approval shall be brought into conformance with this Title. In an approval of a rezoning from planned unit development to a legacy use zone or form zone, the City Council may authorize existing signage to continue as conforming.

18.44.420 Historic Signs

See Section 18.32.030(j).

18.44.430 Sign Face Area Incentive for Bringing Signs into Conformance

Any existing nonconforming sign that is brought into conformance with this Title within four years from the effective date shall be entitled to a 10 percent increase in applicable maximum sign face area.

18.44.440 Removal of Nonconforming Signs

(a) Generally. Ordinary repair and maintenance of legal nonconforming signs, and changes of messages on legal nonconforming signs, are allowed. However, a legal nonconforming sign shall not be expanded, enlarged, or improved in a manner that does not constitute ordinary repair and maintenance, and the right to keep, use, maintain, or display a nonconforming sign us subject to the standards of this Section.

(b) Removal of Nonconforming Signs. A nonconforming sign shall be removed or brought into conformance with this Title if any one of the following conditions occur:

(1)If there is a period of non-use of the subject property that is associated with the nonconforming sign for a period of one year or more, with the period of non-use calculated as provided in Section 18.44.230;

(2) If the nonconforming sign becomes a hazardous or dangerous sign and is not repaired within 14 days after notice from the City that such condition must be

corrected;

(3) The use or building with which the nonconforming sign is associated expands either singularly or cumulatively, in terms of any combination of building gross floor area, outdoor retail/display area, or outdoor storage area, by at least 25 percent compared to the floor area as same existed on the effective date of this Title, or by at least 800 square feet, whichever is greater;

(4) The nonconforming sign structural support is modified or the original support materials are replaced to the extent that a building permit is required or a nonconforming sign module is substantially modified to the extent that a building permit is required;

(5) The nonconforming sign is relocated on the same or different premises but in the new location would continue to be in noncompliance with this Title;

(6) The nonconforming sign is damaged or destroyed and the cost of reconstruction or repair is 50 percent or more of its replacement value at the time it is damaged or destroyed;

(7) The principal building or use with which the sign is associated is demolished or destroyed; or

(8) The non-conforming sign includes a sign face that is modified to include an electronic message sign or an animated or flashing sign.

Division V OTHER PHYSICAL NONCONFORMITIES

18.44.510 Use of Sites with Physical Nonconformities

(a) Generally. Uses designated as a “Permitted by Right” or “Special Use” within the legacy use district in which the subject property is located may be established, continued, modified, enlarged, or extended on a developed site containing physical nonconformities such as:

(1) The use is located on a nonconforming lot;

(2) The use occupies a nonconforming building;

(3)The use is located on a lot with nonconforming landscaping or buffering;

(4) The use utilizes a nonconforming sign;

(5) The use is illuminated by nonconforming lighting;

(6) The use has nonconforming access or parking;

(7) The use occupies a building that is nonconforming with respect to building design or form standards; or

(8) The use occupies a building that is nonconforming with respect to standards for screening utilities and mechanical equipment.

(b) Standards. Uses that are designated as a “Permitted by Right” or “Special Use” within the legacy use district in which the subject property is located may be continued, established, modified, enlarged, or extended on a developed site containing physical nonconformities, subject to compliance with the standards in this Section. Uses that are designated as “Special Use” shall also comply with any applicable use-specific standards.

(c) No Implied Waivers. The authorization in subsection (b), above, shall not be construed as a waiver of the requirements of Chapter 18.44, Division III, Nonconforming Buildings and Structures, Chapter 18.44, Division IV, Nonconforming Signs, or this Division with respect to the physical nonconformities that are present on the subject property. Modifications to buildings, structures, landscaping and buffering, signage, lighting, parking, building design, or utilities may require correction or partial correction of nonconforming situations, as provided in this Division.

(d) Level of Compliance. The following three categories are established to identify the level of site improvements that are required when a permitted use is established on a site that contains physical nonconformities, as set forth in subsection (a), above:

(1) No exterior site modifications / minor building expansions;

(2) Site modifications and / or building expansions; and

(3) Redevelopment.

(iv) Outdoor Storage. The use of outdoor storage areas, if present, shall be discontinued or the outdoor storage areas brought into compliance with applicable standards of Chapter 18.29 and / or Chapter 18.40.

(2)Multi-Tenant Sites. When a tenant improvements permit or other building permit is required for a proposed new use on a subject property that is or is part of a multi-tenant site, and the proposed work does not involve modifications to exterior site features (e.g., access and parking, lighting, building facades, landscaping, buffering, circulation, or outdoor storage areas) other than signs, the standards of subsection (e)(1) shall be met only if the value of the work authorized by the tenant improvements permit or other building permit exceeds 50 percent of the “actual land value” of the multi-tenant site according to the current records of the Jefferson County Assessor.

(f) Site Modifications and / or Building Expansions. Where improvements to a subject property involve work on exterior site features (e.g., access or parking, lighting, building facades, landscaping, buffering, circulation, or outdoor storage areas) other than signs, or the cumulative expansion of existing buildings by the greater of 25 percent of existing floor area or 800 square feet, the following standards shall be met in addition to the standards in subsection (e), above, prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy or certificate of completion:

WHEREAS, the City of Golden (“City”) is a home rule municipal corporation created and organized pursuant to Article 20 of the Colorado Constitution and the Home Rule Charter of the City of Golden (“Charter”); and

WHEREAS, the City has studied the parking requirements of affordable housing developments in the region and concluded that affordable housing developments use substantially less parking than market-rate housing developments; and

WHEREAS, the City finds that the provision of parking in excess of demand places a financial burden on affordable housing for which there is not a corresponding benefit to residents or the public; and

WHEREAS, on May 28, 2021, Governor Polis signed HB 21-117 into law, expanding the authority of local governments to regulate development and redevelopment to promote the construction of new affordable housing units by, among other things, allowing exceptions to the rent control prohibitions of C.R.S. § 38-12-301 under certain conditions; and

WHEREAS, C.R.S. § 29-20-104(1)(e.5) grants local governments the authority noted above so long as the regulation provides a choice of options to the property owner or land developer and creates one or more alternatives to the construction of new affordable housing units on the building site; and

WHEREAS, C.R.S. 29-20-104(1)(e.7) requires that the local government adopt one or more actions listed in C.R.S. 29-20-104(1)(e.7)(I) (A-H),(II),(III).(IV),&(V); and

WHEREAS, the City of Golden desires to exercise the authority conferred by HB 21-117; and

WHEREAS, the City makes the following findings that demonstrate compliance with C.R.S. § 29-20-104(e.7), which sets out the conditions precedent to the exercise of authority conferred by HB 21-117:

By the adoption of Ordinance No. 2181 on May 24, 2022, and Ordinance No. 2209 on June 6, 2023, the City changed its zoning regulations to increase the number of housing units allowed on a particular site by establishing a form-based approach to residential buildings consistent with C.R.S. § 29-20-104(1)(e.7)(I)(A);

By the adoption of Ordinance No. 2209, the City expanded the availability of mixed-use zoning and increased the allowances for permitting housing units to be incorporated into mixed-use development consistent with C.R.S. § 29-20-104(1)(e.7)(I)(A);

By the adoption of Ordinance Nos. 2181 and 2209, the City permitted more than one dwelling unit per lot on traditional single-family lots by allowing for multiple uses within a single building and by allowing for development forms that allow multiple residential buildings on a single lot;

By the adoption of Ordinance No. 2209, the City provided new housing development options near transit stations and places of employment by expanding the opportunity to build housing units in commercial areas;

By the adoption of Ordinance Nos. 2181 and 2209, the City expanded opportunities to increase the diversity of housing stock, allowing for increased opportunities in both for-sale and rental markets consistent with C.R.S. § 29-20-104(1)(e.7)(I)(H);

WHEREAS, the aforementioned previously adopted ordinances and this Ordinance, provide a choice of options to the property owner or land developer and creates one or more alternatives to the construction of new affordable housing units on the building site as required by C.R.S. § 29-20-104(1)(e.5); and

WHEREAS, it is the intent of the City Council to define “affordable housing unit” in a manner that is consistent with the definition of “affordable housing” that is set out in C.R.S. § 29-32-101(2), but with added long-term protection for the affordability of affordable housing units by way of deed restrictions; and

WHEREAS, by the adoption of this Ordinance, the City further advances objectives set out in C.R.S. § 29-20-104(e.7) by:

Further increasing the number of housing units that may be constructed in particular areas of the City; Further increasing the opportunity for the incorporation of housing units in commercial and mixed-use zoning districts; Granting reduced parking requirements to residential or mixed-use developments that include affordable housing; and

Granting affordable housing developments material regulatory relief from parking regulations in order to facilitate the development of new affordable housing units; and

WHEREAS, this Ordinance advances the City’s comprehensive plan and housing policies found throughout Part 4 of the Comprehensive Plan, but particularly addressed in Strategy 1: Regulatory Barriers and Opportunities, which states that the city will periodically assess its regulations, policies and programs to identify and mitigate barriers to the production and maintenance of affordable housing.

e last minute change gave Georgetown time to shine in the sunny weekend of hockey, Jones said. It also lled hotel rooms and home rentals across the region.

For competitors and their families, a trip to the mountains was a welcome change.

“It’s beautiful,” Anderson said. “We don’t get a lot of snow in Texas, so this is phenomenal.”

Georgetown, Anderson added, was a surprise, but it’s a town he’ll bring his family to again.

“It’s an incredible experience and it’s a beautiful, beautiful city here in Georgetown and you couldn’t ask for better conditions,” he said.

Organizers said it was a challenge putting it all together in two weeks, but it was a great chance to showcase the town and welcome guests.

“You’re a part of it. You don’t have to put yourself out there or try too hard — everyone just welcomes you as you are,” Jones said.
