Brighton opts for pot tax ballot issue STAFF REPORT

Brighton City Council was expected to take up the question of placing a marijuana sales tax question on the November election ballot.

Council’s discussion was set for Aug. 31, after press time. If council approves, voters will get to decide whether to OK the tax Nov. 2.

According to a city press release, the ballot for marijuana

sales would allow for the sale of retail marijuana and marijuana products within city limits. In addition, the ballot question asks voters if they approve of a 4 percent sales tax on marijuana and marijuana products sold at retail stores in Brighton.

City staff estimate that approximately $1.5 million of marijuana sales tax could be collected per year. Revenue from this special sales tax would be used to fund capital projects, such as recre-

ational amenities, according to the press release. No more than 20 percent of the revenues could be spent on administrative costs.

Because of the Taxpayers Bill of Rights, the city has to get voter approval to impose the marijuana sales tax.

Voters in Fort Lupton approved the sale of medical and retail marijuana in November.

The Adams County Board of Commissioners voted 3-2 on Tuesday to opt out of a Tri-County Health Department order that requires masks for kids ages 2 to 11 in indoor school and child-care settings.

The commissioners’ decision now bestows authority about masks with local school districts and their boards. Most districts in Adams County currently require masks for younger students.

After the meeting, spokespeople for Mapleton Public Schools, 27J Schools and Westminster Public Schools said the districts were keeping the current mask guidance.

A spokesperson for Adams 12 Five Star Schools said the district was evaluating its current mask guidance and the opt-out decision.

The county board meeting was an opportunity for a group of citizens to protest and for commissioners to clarify stances on public health decision-making.

Board chairperson Eva Henry and Commissioners Chaz Tedesco and Lynn Baca voted to opt out of the order that Tri-County’s board approved Aug. 17. Commissioners Emma Pinter and Steve O’Dorisio voted against opting out.

Prior to the commissioners’ public hearing on Tuesday morning, a group of parents gathered for a rally and prayer outside the Adams County Government Center.

The group then made its way to the board chambers. Once the board SEE COUNTY, P4

Brighton names five finalists for fire chief Two are from Colorado, three from other states

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Candidates for Brighton’s top job in the fire department all agreed that it’s important to have a connection to the community.

How they plan to build that connection is where they differed.

The five finalists for the fire chief position with the Brighton Fire Rescue District introduced themselves to the community with an Aug. 25 meet and greet at the Brighton Armory.

Residents came to meet the finalist and completed a fire chief evaluation form that will be reviewed by the Brighton Fire District board of directors that will make the selection. Board members said they don’t plan on making a decision until mid-September.

The city of Brighton is a mixture of the old and the new with a diverse culture. It’s also one of the fastestgrowing cities in the United States.

The fire department has served the area since 1888. The district serves a population of more than 55,000 spread out over 150 square miles with five fire stations covering urban and suburban rural areas.

Plans to bring to the table Jim Geering recently retired after 35 years as fire chief for the city of Chula Vista, California Fire Department. He started as a firefighter and was promoted to fire chief, a job he held for six years before retirement.

“I think there are a couple of things that are facing our department here in Brighton, and growth is one of them. Brighton needs to determine what our response time threshold is, and base our growth on what our response threshold should be. It’s going to determine the timing of our new fire stations and their locations,” said Geering.

“To my knowledge, it has not been done yet. It’s one of the critical things that we need. We also need to establish funding a funding mechanism for a new fire station. The community is going to have certain demands based on the growth, and our fire department had to be ready to meet those demands.”

Dennis Light is the fire chief for the city of Prescott, Arizona, a position he’s held since 2014. From 1997 to 2014, he was with the city of Yuma, Arizona’s fire department serving

as battalion chief, then assistant chief for 12 years. In his early career, he was a firefighter and deputy fire chief for the U.S. Air force.

“The department is in strong leadership right now with the interim chief, Ryan Roberts. I think what I bring to the table is a wealth of experience that perhaps some of my other colleagues don’t necessarily have coming into an organization from the outside. I think it’s more of a wait-and-see approach. Once I get to know folks and see what the community interests are, it is about becoming part of the communitythe fabric of the community,” said Light.

Steve Dawald is the deputy fire chief for the Los Alamos County Fire Department in New Mexico.

He’s held that position since 2016. In 1998, he started as a firefighter paramedic and advanced to engineer, then captain from 2005 to 2012, then to battalion chief from 2012 to 2016 before he became deputy fire chief.

“I want to take some time to learn about the agency first before making any changes. I don’t think it is good business to come in the door to make any changes without learning the organization,” he said. “I know, there are some holes at the top.

We’ve got some reasonable retirements and some folks that have left.

It’s going to play a big part in the decision process,” said Dawald. “Are there people on the inside interested in promoting to these positions? Or are we going to have to look towards

the outside?” I have a lot to learn.

It’s going take some time in evaluating what’s going on, get feedback and input from people to make decisions before just making change.”

Transition Brycen Garrison is the assistant chief for the Thornton Fire Rescue District, a position he’s had since 2018. He started his career in 2001 with the Brighton district as a volunteer. In 2004, he became a career firefighter and was promoted to captain, and also served as the acting battalion chief from 2013 to 2018.

“The fire department is in a transition due to a lot of leadership changes and sometimes when that happens, the vision of the organization kind of gets put to the side into survival mode. I would like to reincorporate everybody from the organization into rethinking what the vision of Brighton fire looks like, so we can all work towards one common goal,” said Garrison. “Also, we want to create succession planning for people inside the organization, allow them to learn, grow and seek some additional education so they can be feeling fulfilled by their work and also work in a safe environment. They can go home feeling fulfilled by their service.

“We are going to be coming into CAD, which is a system to respond to calls together. So gaining that cooperative effort, common policies and procedures on how we respond to calls,” he continued. “The collab-

Holger Durre is deputy fire chief for the city of Boulder since 2017.

From 2000-2017, he started as a firefighter for the Poudre Fire Authority. He moved up to battalion chief and deputy fire chief. Earlier in his career, he was an EMT for the Poudre Valley Hospital Ambulance Service.

“I’ve learned in my career is you got to understand the facts before you make big decisions. I’m a big believer in using the fire chief as a pivot physician, between the line and your community,” said Durre.

“The primary thing is we work directly for that board of directors, with the firefighters and the stakeholders, and if you can’t work with them, then you can’t bring anything to the table. You have to build those relationships. I’ve always heard that firefighters make decisions at kitchen tables, not conference room tables. So you’ve got to get into those fire stations and build the relationships and understand their concerns.

“The other thing is the community expectations,” he continued.

“In most communities in the United States, what they want from their fire departments is to get there fast, be skilled, and care about what they do. You have to make sure those people feel that support and meet that community’s expectations. “

27J Schools tests Adams County’s opt out Parents argue to loosen mask restrictions after county’s decision

BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The 27J Schools board of education was one of the first school boards in Adams County’s districts to meet after county commissioners voted to opt out the Tri-County Health Department’s mask order for kids ages 2 to 11. The public took advantage of the timing.

“I believe that allowing parents the choice to choose for their child whether or not to put a mask on them is the best choice. It is the full decision. We don’t follow what other people tell us, right?” said Jenn Venerable, a former 27J Schools board director, during public comments at the 27J board meeting Aug. 24. “And this district has always been a trailblazer. And the fact that we are not mandated now by Tri-County is a serious blessing because now there is no

meeting began, the commissioners immediately added a resolu-

legal repercussions.”

Venerable was one of many public commenters who asked officials in the Brighton-based district to loosen its current restrictions that requires middle and elementary school students to wear masks, especially because the district is no longer subject to the directive from Tri-County Health.

The district initially didn’t require all students to wear masks but changed its policy after TriCounty Health issued its mandate Aug. 17. On the morning of Aug. 24, the Adams County Board of Commissioners voted 3-2 to opt out of Tri-County’s order, leaving decisions about masks up to individual school districts.

The 27J Schools board meeting was that night. It was the first school board in Adams County to meet since the opt-out decision.

“Remember the world tilted on us this morning,” 27J Superintendent Chris Fiedler said in the meeting.

The board had not scheduled any action items about masks for the meeting, so it did not make any decisions about the district’s policy.

For the time being, the district’s

current mask policy will remain in place, Fiedler said.

However, that wasn’t the case for one of the district’s charter schools, Belle Creek, which changed its previous mask policy hours after the Adams County commissioners opted out. Belle Creek said it will not require vaccinated students to wear masks, whereas it used to.

At the 27J board meeting, an audience member pointed out the fact that Belle Creek changed its policy after Adams County opted out.

“They did, and I have an idea as to why they did, although I won’t say it in public,” Fiedler responded.

The 27J board limited public comments to 45 minutes, a time filled mostly by mask opponents.

“Our family is not afraid of the Delta variant. We have the Alpha and the Omega,” said one public commenter.

Many of the speakers who were critical of the district’s current mask requirement framed their argument as being “pro-choice.

A public commenter who is a fourth-grade history teacher in the district said, “I think a lot of us here tonight are to the point

of a breaking point where we are sick and tired of people mandating whether we make a choice for our bodies or not, mandating to wear a mask or take a vaccine. It’s a person’s choice.”

Not all commenters opposed the district’s policy, and some applauded the board and administrators for following public health expert guidance. A couple also thanked the district for offering medical exemptions for students to not wear masks. Fiedler also encouraged parents to seek out that option if they felt the need to.

Fiedler said district staff would evaluate the district’s current mask policy in light of Adams County’s opt out but said a main concern of his is staffing. If too many teachers are out because they contracted COVID-19 due to relaxed mask wearing, the entire system experiences the strain. “That’s the tension,” he said.

Mapleton Public Schools, Adams 12 Five Star Schools and Westminster Public Schools have not changed current mask requirements after Adams County’s opt-out decision.

tion to the agenda to opt out of the Tri-County order because the item wasn’t originally on the agenda.

Henry formally motioned to approve the resolution for opting out.

“County commissioners are not health experts and should not be in

the position of making decisions about our residents’ health. That decision should be up to our health department,” she said.

Henry said the Tri-County order is inherently flawed because it created the option to opt out, which puts the onus on commissioners. Henry said she still agrees with the intent of the order and supports maskwearing.

When Henry motioned to approve the resolution, the audience cheered in response.

Tedesco and Baca echoed Henry.

Baca went a step further, though, and said that the current predicament makes a case for Adams County leaving the Tri-County Health Department. Baca said county staff briefed her on the idea in January, but the county had not taken formal action.

The board is expected to discuss the idea of leaving Tri-County in October, Baca said.

“When we undertake our discussion in October to leave Tri-County Health, I will hold all of us accountable that we go through this transformational change of providing a better health system overall, that we have better leadership,” Baca said. “We have great leadership now, but we just cannot live, and we cannot stand under an opt-out order.”

Pinter felt differently. “They (TriCounty) have made a recommendation, it is our job to take the recom-

mendation of those members of the board of health who quite frankly have put their lives on the line, who have feared for their safety.”

Pinter became emotional, especially after seeing that a majority of the board would vote for opting out.

Just seconds before the board voted, she said, “I would implore my colleagues to use our authority that we have delegated to Tri-County health and take the recommendation seriously and follow this order, which is designed to protect our children.”

Pinter’s comments were met by boos and hisses from audience members. Others made jazz hands — a motion that a leader of the protesters encouraged people to motion early in the meeting as an alternative to shouting out — though that ultimately did not discourage the heckling.

Then, after the vote, parents and some local school district students spoke during public comments.

Despite the opt out resolution passing, public commenters still chose to criticize the Tri-County order and the commissioners who voted against opting out.

“I don’t know what your agenda was, but it certainly wasn’t for them today,” Dixie Easton said to Pinter and O’Dorisio, pointing to a group of students she asked to stand up to make her argument.

Adams County is the second after Douglas County to opt out of TriCounty’s order.

Jury convicts man in attempted drowning case STAFF REPORT

BRIGHTON – An Adams County jury convicted a 33-year-old man of attempted murder, sexual assault and kidnapping after an eight-day jury trial.

Sentencing for Fermin GonzalesFlores will be in October.

The crimes happened in Thornton in January 2020. A press statement from the 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office said the victim returned home from work when her cousin’s boyfriend, Gonzales-Flores, entered the bedroom.

“They engaged in a brief conversation before Gonzalez-Flores proceeded to strangle the victim until she lost consciousness,” said the press

statement from DA spokesman Chris Hopper. “The victim awoke to the defendant standing over her again. The victim attempted to stop Gonzalez-Flores from harming her further by using a knife and pepper spray that sat on her nightstand.

But the defendant pulled her to the floor and began to strangle her again.”

The press statement said Gonzalez-Flores dragged the victim by her hair to the laundry room and then to the landing area near the front door of the home. The victim managed to open the front door and scream for help.

“But that angered the defendant,” Hopper’s statement said. “GonzalezFlores strangled the victim again

and then dragged her upstairs to the bathroom. The defendant continued to strangle the victim until she lost consciousness.”

When the victim awoke, the press statement said she noticed that Gonzalez-Flores was filling the bathtub with water. The defendant grabbed the victim and submerged her head in the water. She attempted to “play dead” on several occasions, but Gonzalez-Flores continued to hold her head underwater.

The defendant eventually pulled the victim’s head out of the bathtub and dragged her to the bedroom, where he proceeded to sexually assault her multiple times before falling asleep. At that point, the victim escaped from the defendant and

began to knock on neighbors’ doors for help.

“The victim eventually made it to a coffee shop where she called 911,” Hopper’s statement said. “Thornton police officers responded to the home and took Gonzalez-Flores into custody.”

“The brutality of this crime is truly unspeakable,” said District Attorney Brian Mason. “The defendant repeatedly tortured, brutalized and sexually assaulted this victim.

I’m grateful to the jury for returning a just verdict.”

Gonzalez-Flores will be sentenced at 8:30 a.m. Friday, Oct. 15.

Roaming charges: Dropped phone foils escape STAFF REPORT

BRIGHTON – It’s a sign of the (technological) times.

Weld County sheriff’s deputies arrested a 51-year-old man after they tracked a deputy’s lost cellphone to the bed of the suspect’s pickup truck.

Steven Sandoval could face charges of criminal impersonation, criminal mischief, attempting to influence a public servant and eluding. Sheriff’s office spokesman Joe Moylan said all those potential charges are felonies. Sandoval could face a series of misdemeanor

counts, too, including resisting arrest, driving with a revoked license and driving without insurance.

Moylan said deputies added a potential extra felony charge of attempting to introduce contraband into the jail during booking.

It’s up to the Weld County District Attorney’s Office to make the decision.

The arrest happened around 1:15 a.m. Aug. 23 in the 9100 block of Weld County Road 2, west of Brighton, according to deputies. They saw Sandoval driving a white 2000 Chevy pickup truck. Inside the storage lot, Sandoval allegedly told deputies he

was his little brother, Anthony.

“The deputy pulled up on his cellphone a mugshot of Steven Sandoval, as well as a list of his known tattoos, and was able to confirm the driver was in fact Steven Sandoval,” Moylan said. “While trying to talk Sandoval out of his pickup to take him into custody, the deputy placed his county-issued cellphone on the rail of the truck’s bed.”

After that, Moylan said, Sandoval shifted into drive and fled the scene, crashing through a security gate in the process. Not long after the crash, the deputy realized his phone was missing.

“He used his personal cellphone to call another deputy to have him find it using the ‘Find My iPhone app,” Moylan said. “The second deputy was able to locate the cellphone as it traveled west toward Boulder on the E-470 tollway. The phone stopped about 2:47 a.m. at an address in the 4800 block of Jay Road in Boulder.”

Moylan said Boulder County sheriff’s deputies were able to arrest Sandoval on Jay Road. The missing cellphone was in the bed of Sandoval’s truck. Sandoval was treated at an area hospital before his arrest.

Sandoval is in the Weld County Jail on a $23,000 bond.

Brighton warehouse begins testing driverless trucks Autonomous trucks improves efficiency and safety in yards

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Brighton is getting a glimpse of the future as a Colorado company begins testing a warehouse relying on driverless trucks.

“The future distribution yard will be autonomous and electric,” said Andrew Smith, Founder, and CEO of Outrider. “Autonomy helps increase the efficiency and improve the safety of the distribution yard.

And, when we standardize that autonomous system on an electric yard truck, we help make the movement of freight more sustainable. Outrider’s mission is to drive the rapid adoption of sustainable freight transportation.”

Golden-based tech firm Outrider opened its first testing facility site in Brighton on August 24, using self-driving trucks driven in a distribution yard with technology to move and park semi-trailers into loading docks to distribute freight and cargo. The facility, located at 22600 E. I-76 Frontage Road in Brighton, will be used both to assemble and test the self-driving vehicles.

The facility is a 200,000 square foot distribution yard build with 49 dock doors that will be operational 16-hours a day, five days a week.

It will be expanding operations to 24-hours a day in 2022.

Going inside The autonomous trucks are assembled by the team with the autonomy equipment inside the Brighton location. Outrider begins with standard electric trucks from the original manufacturer.

“We outfit them and convert them to an autonomous vehicle. So, it takes a lot of sensors and cameras and then we tie it all together with software that makes the vehicle autonomous,” Londonne Corder, Vice President of Marketing.

Not only are the trucks autonomous, but they are also electric, Smith said, which will help reduce pollution. Each year in the US, diesel yard trucks emit 3.8 million metric tons of carbon dioxide, the equivalent of one coal-fired power plant, he added.

It can take up to three hours to charge each truck sufficiently using fast-charging equipment but Corder said the company is still collecting data on the length of a full charge.

“We made the conscious decision that we were going to standardize an electric fleet. Because we believe in the adoption of sustainable technologies,” said Corder.

Zackary Moss is an Autonomous test technician at Outrider for about a year in a half and had experience driving a truck for 10-years before he went back to school. He is a grad student studying for a master’s degree in aeronautics and is a parttime engineering student. His job is to test the self-driving trucks and report back to the developers.

The Outrider autonomous truck hooked on to a chassis and backed into a dock.

“It’s actually how I got the job, they liked my background, and also the 10 years of trucking experience is what got me in the door,” said Moss. “Working with commercial vehicles that weigh 80,000 pounds, it’s good to have a background in it.”

Moss, said when a driver brings in the semi there is a lot involved with moving a trailer around a yard, and other trucks. They deal with blind spots in the dark, sometimes running into gates especially if they are not familiar with the area.

“Trucking is necessary and is the top 10 most dangerous jobs in America. I don’t know if that accounts for distribution yards, or over the road or a combination,” said Moss.

“This is an efficient system with a computer system that communicates with each other between docks and parking spots with one person dispatching it inside a safe, warm building or a cool building. It is ideal, and it’s working,” he added.

The automation process Over the road drivers will bring in the semi-trucks with a load or an empty trailer to a warehouse distribution yard. Drivers will park their trailers in a designated spot, then drive away.

Next, the autonomous truck moves in. It will be controlled by a computer software called “mission control” and monitored by an employee in the warehouse. The selfdriving truck hooks to the trailer and moves it from the parking spot to the loading dock. Each self-driving truck has an arm that safely connects and disconnects trailer brake lines without human help.

“In today’s Distribution Yard unhooking a truck is a highly repetitive task done oftentimes inhospitable conditions. So you can imagine being outside on a day like this, having to get in and out of the truck multiple times hooking up the trailer and brake lines multiple times all day. It’s dangerous, “ said Corder.

Truck drivers say there is a lot of waiting around, she said – sometimes more than 45 minutes at each stop.

Zackary Moss an autonomous test technician is testing a self-driving truck in the yard on the computer.

“They get paid when they’re on the road and the longer they wait, they are not getting paid. We want to get those drivers back on the highways and getting freight where it needs to go,” said Corder.

Corder said that for many of their Fortune 500 customers claim that driver safety is one of their main concerns. They want to keep their employees safe and get them working in better conditions and efficiency.

Inside its warehouse, each dock has a safety system that tells the autonomous computer and truck when it’s safe to pull away or open the door. Once the trailer is fully aligned with the dock, it turns on a green signal like a traffic light. Once it’s been emptied, it sends out an alert that the door is closed on the trailer and it can pull away.

Safety is a priory focusing on autonomous systems, the safety of the workforce, and customers on-site.

They also are testing an obstacle detection and avoidance system using a mannequin named Roy Zinger. It is used to demonstrate to visitors that the autonomous truck can detect obstacles within certain distances quickly.

“Other companies in distribution yards are not the thinking about

its entire system of the yard operations. They just focus on the truck.

We focus on the entire operations such as the autonomous system talking to the dock area and how it works with other trucks in the yard.

We have to take it into considerations,” said Corder.

Outrider tests different types of trailers to build a system that can be universal.

The test and field teams come from diverse backgrounds, with some having experience driving a semitruck or managing a distribution yard. That is so they have real-world experience with today’s operations of yards, Corder said. People who are in the consultancy group have experience in supply change.

“We are fully operational right now we have trucks going out to different customers already. We have nine enterprise customers, and they’re at various stages of evaluating the technology, trying the technology, and in some places deploying the technologies,” said Corder.

“We feel like we’re making a difference for people and getting them out of dangerous jobs and helping to address the environmental challenges with transportation and logistics spaces.”

Suncor air pollution monitoring begins Activists underwhelmed, monitoring law still to come

BY MICHAEL BOOTH THE COLORADO SUN

The Suncor refinery’s voluntary air pollution monitoring site is now live on the internet, and the Commerce City petroleum refiner will add mobile van monitoring reports next week.

The refinery, which has battled neighborhood activists and environmental groups for years over toxic air and water emissions that periodically hit Adams County and north Denver, said the new stationary and mobile monitoring is part of its commitment to reporting potential toxins and improving community relations.

Suncor planned the monitoring program after agreeing in 2020 to a $9 million settlement with state health officials over pollution violations from 2017 through 2019. Suncor says the new monitors were not part of that settlement, but were in response to talks with the community in 2020.

Some of those activists, though, said they still don’t trust Suncor to be transparent, and are far more interested in the monitoring and reporting required by legislation passed in the spring. That law requires extensive air monitoring

along the fence lines of a number of polluting industries, including the refinery.

The voluntary monitoring is a “step in the right direction” in offering general, current air quality information, said state Sen. Dominick Moreno, a Commerce City Democrat. But it lacks data comparing what Suncor is emitting to what its state pollution permits allow, he added.

“That is life-critical information for communities that surround

that facility, and so I do think there are some improvements that could be made to the tool and I will be submitting that feedback directly,” Moreno said at a community clean air conference this week.

Suncor’s voluntary monitoring site can be found at ccnd-air.com, for Commerce City North Denver Air Monitoring. The upper-right corner of the web page shows realtime overall air quality monitoring numbers from state equipment, providing the Air Quality Index for a handful of communities.

The map dominating the main web page gives numbered, clickable points representing the fixed monitors around Suncor’s large footprint in Commerce City. Those sites, operated by Montrose Air Quality Services, provide 60-minute averages of measured pollutants including carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, PM 2.5 particulate matter, hydrogen sulfide and volatile organic compounds. The information is available in Spanish and English.

The monitors are not only measuring Suncor-related air, of course.

They pick up pollutants from all the industries in the area, power plants, auto emissions, and in the case of PM 2.5, the smoke from wildfires as far away as Canada. Elevated hydrogen sulfide readings could come

from Suncor’s flaring towers, or from nearby wastewater treatment or power plants, for example.

If there is an emission incident at Suncor, residents or researchers would be able to click on the monitoring sites and see months of recent patterns in addition to present data.

The monitors update every five minutes, a Montrose Air technician said, and the PM 2.5 monitors at Suncor showed the first inflows of West Coast wildfires this summer before the state’s monitors were updated.

Mobile monitoring will happen every three months, and those results will also be added on the web site.

The separate state-mandated monitoring will eventually begin under House Bill 1189, which requires fenceline monitoring of pollutants from specific industries, including refineries, petroleum distribution sites and aerospace materials manufacturers. That bill requires monitoring of benzene and hydrogen cyanide, in addition to hydrogen sulfide.

The communities around Suncor often note that they have gained a reputation as one of the most polluted ZIP codes in the nation because of the refinery, other industries, auto emissions from highways, and a long history of smelting metals in north Denver.

They have recently sought and passed tougher reporting legislation, citing health studies that prove high rates of asthma, lung disease, heart disease and other pollutionrelated illnesses in the area.

They have also sought economic and environmental justice provisions in legislation and regulations, noting the communities are often populated with Hispanic, indigenous and other people of color with lower incomes that complicate health care or the ability to move away.

COVID cases rise; doctors frustrated with unvaccinated Delta variant more contagious, hospitals see more patients under 50

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As the new delta variant of COVID spreads, hospitals and emergency rooms along the Front Range say they are seeing more patients but are not yet overwhelmed.

According to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, as of Aug. 20, ICU beds went from 72% to 80% occupancy over the preceding month. In the Denver metro area, hospital officials say they are handling the uptick well but remain concerned as the new COVID variant is a lot more transmissible.

According to UCHealth, after a steady decrease of COVID patients between April and mid-July, cases are steadily rising with more than 200 patients with confirmed or suspected COVID infections being admitted into UCHealth hospitals in Douglas and Adams counties.

Dr. Ben Usatch, emergency medicine physician and medical director of the UCHealth Highlands Ranch Hospital Emergency Department, said along with the increasing number of patients, frustration among health-care providers is rising.

Usatch said the difference between vaccinated patients with breakthrough COVID and unvaccinated

patients is night and day. Most vaccinated patients come to the ER more out of fear and are quickly released, Usatch said.

“Really, we are seeing two flavors of COVID patients,” he said. “The vaccinated have a runny nose, maybe a slight fever and headache. The unvaccinated are ending up in the ICU and deteriorating quickly. The vaccine really does protect from serious disease. It is heart wrenching.”

Usatch said besides the delta variant being a lot more contagious, a big change from treating COVID patients from last year is age. Last year, hospitals were treating more patients over 65. This year, most patients coming into emergency rooms are under 50 and unvaccinated, Usatch said.

At Sky Ridge Medical Center in Lone Tree, Chief Medical Officer Eric Lung said they are not overwhelmed with patients, but the HealthOne hospital is seeing a steady increase of COVID cases between the ages of 18 and 50.

“I wouldn’t say we are inundated with patients at this point. We are managing them well,” he said. “The unvaccinated cases we are treating are a bigger concern. They are more contagious and have a lot more symptoms.”

Like Usatch, Lung said it is frustrating to have a vaccine option available but have emergency rooms still filling up with unvaccinated patients.

“The only way out of this pandemic is to get vaccinated,” Lung stressed.

room physician with the Medical Center of Aurora, said it is not about the delta variant, but about treating positive COVID cases.

“The people we are admitting are the unvaccinated,” she said. “In most cases, the breakthrough vaccinated patients are released. Hospitals across the city are going to keep getting full.”

In family medicine, Dr. Anne Jobman, of UCHealth Primary Care in Lone Tree, said general-care physicians have a lot of young adults and children presenting with COVID symptoms.

Jobman said she is recommending a lot of her adult patients go to the ER but children with COVID still seem to be handling the virus well.

“Delta has definitely become the dominant strain in the positive tests we are seeing,” she said. “Child cases are steadily climbing because it is so much more contagious, which is why we are seeing it in un-

vaccinated and vaccinated patients.

The unvaccinated patients who are under 50 are getting very sick.”

Jobman said vaccinated patients are getting better quickly, as they would with a common cold. Vaccinated patients are rarely being sent to hospitals for elevated treatment, she said.

At Children’s Health Colorado (CHC), Kevin Carney, associate chief medical officer and pediatrics emergency medicine specialist, said there are a lot more concerns for children under 12 as the delta variant spreads.

With children under 12 still not eligible for the vaccine, Carney said they are more vulnerable for the highly contagious variant, especially with schools across the metro area starting this month.

With CHC facilities in Highland Ranch, Aurora, Centennial, Wheat Ridge, Parker and Broomfield, Carney said officials are not hitting the panic button but remain on alert.

“Our cases in children are still average but above our lower numbers,” Carney said. “We are not overwhelmed but reports are showing cases are creeping up on us. As it continues to spread, we just keep recommending wearing masks, get the vaccine if you are eligible and wash hands and toys regularly.”

Carney said CHC has no doubt that children should be back in school in person, but precautions should be taken, including wearing masks to protect children who cannot yet get vaccinated.

Plus-size woman documents Kilimanjaro climb Film screening brings body positive movement to Elbert County

BY CHANCY J. GATLIN-ANDERSON SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

The body positive movement — which promotes acceptance of all bodies of any size, weight or appearance — is gaining momentum in Colorado as plus-size women and men build confidence and take on challenges.

The Aug. 5 screening of the awardwinning documentary “Kili Big” in the Spring Valley Ranch community of Elbert County, an event promoted on social media, offered a look at one Colorado woman’s experience hiking 19,341-foot Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and her journey to defy societal odds of what big bodies can achieve.

Kara Hardman of Littleton, a 30-year-old woman who identifies as plus-size and fat, climbed Kilimanjaro with 19 other plus-size, fatidentifying, or nonbinary people in 2019 with the organizations WHOA and Trek 2 Kili. The hikers call themselves the “Curvy Kili Crew,” a group of mostly strangers who came together from across the globe to conquer Kilimanjaro, considered to be the highest single free-standing mountain in the world.

man and the Curvy Kili Crew hiked more than 45 miles in roughly 40 hours, proving that people in larger bodies can achieve great feats.

At the film screening, Hardman emotionally shared her story with those in attendance, explaining in detail her journey up the mountain, including her triumphs, struggles, and the community she built along the way. The majority of those present were members of Denver’s bodypositive fat community, “Denver Fatties.”

Hardman sat among the small group, teary-eyed with tissues in hand as she relived her hike up Mount Kilimanjaro. She provided insider commentary along with the documentary, describing the scenery, her fellow plus-size hikers, and the exciting milestones she hit along the hike.

Each time she would see herself on screen, Hardman would gleefully shout out: “That’s me!”

Hardman explained different facets of her trip in a Q&A interview with Colorado Community Media.

nature is the best!”

Hardman said she has always been passionate about the outdoors, even prior to her experience hiking Mount Kilimanjaro. In 2018, she and co-founder Arwen Turner created a company called WNDR Outdoors that “strives to increase representation of larger-bodied folks outdoors by creating technical outdoor apparel in extended sizes and by providing size inclusive events.”

The “Kili Big” documentary recently won Best Jury Documentary at the Bentonville Film Festival, an annual diversity-focused event in Arkansas. The film will also be shown at the Chagrin Documentary Film Festival in Chagrin Falls, Ohio.

What was your experience like as a plus-size person hiking one of the world’s tallest mountains?

“It felt powerful and like not a single person could mess with us because we had the power of 19 other fat people standing behind us.”

Did you have any struggles on your hike?

“I got a food/waterborne illness, so that was difficult to deal with.

It was also very hard mentally to breathe at elevation and continue walking hours on end.”

How would you describe the communitybuilding or bonding you did with others on the hike?

“There was not much time to get to know people before having to be completely vulnerable with them during this new physical and emotional experience. We bonded quickly and I especially bonded with my tent mate. She will be my friend forever because of what we went through together.”

What advice do you have for plus-size or fat-identifying people who are nervous to get outside and explore joyful movement?

“Find a current or new friend who is fat and go with them! Fat joy in

Ask a Therapist: Building connections at home Finding ways to stay happy despite closings, financial restraints

D

ear Ask a Therapist “Especially with the pandemic, my kids and I have been spending a lot of time together and getting on each other’s GUEST nerves, which is COLUMN causing more arguments and making it feel harder to connect. It has also been difficult to find activities to do, either because of COVID limitations or financial resources. What are Samantha Wilson some ways I can connect with my kids that we can do at home safely and cost-free?”

The COVID-19 pandemic brought about many challenges and stressors, and it makes sense that it has had an impact on the parent-child relationship. The hope is that parents and caregivers can find some grace towards themselves and their family members in knowing that

they are not alone in navigating new trials that have come with the pandemic.

In difficult times, connection can be a source of strength and light when the surrounding world can feel chaotic and dark. COVID-19 has definitely impacted the possibilities for going out and doing fun things that families enjoy together. Finding safe and available options can be limited, and anxieties may be heightened. Additionally, there can be activities that come with expenses that may not be affordable and may add further stress.

Opportunities With the increased time at home, there can be opportunities to build connection with your kids in ways that do not require leaving or spending money. Here are some ideas to try: 1) Validate your children’s emotions. Verbally noticing what your children are feeling helps them to feel seen and heard. When you can acknowledge how they feel, that can increase emotional connection and potentially open up the opportunity to have more conversations about emotions. Next time your child is starting to complain about homework, try saying something like “It

is frustrating when you have to do homework instead of playing video games.”

2) Be playful when doing daily tasks. When time allows, try adding in play when completing the day-today duties. Have a dance party while cooking dinner, make silly noises back and forth during clean-up, or walk like a robot to the door when leaving for school. Being playful together builds connection and also makes mundane chores feel more enjoyable.

3) Notice positives. Recognizing positive moments can be helpful in propelling families through the difficult times. Thank your child for completing something you asked, acknowledge when you hear them say kind words to siblings or peers, or tell about a happy memory you have with them. This can provide the opportunity for connection through sharing in appreciation for each other or times together.

4) Engage in something your child enjoys. Your children may not always have the same hobbies you do, but showing an interest in their pastimes can increase connection.

Try to carve out some time together where they get to pick what you all do or be curious in learning more about their activities. Ask about

their favorite characters in the TV show they are watching or kick the soccer ball in the backyard. Connection can come when kids feel that their caregivers want to understand what they like to do.

Being realistic With all that life and parenting can bring, it is unrealistic to say that parents and caregivers can do these things perfectly every time. COVID-19 has created a lot of barriers; however, having awareness that building connection with your child is a goal and fitting in opportunities when they arise are helpful steps in reducing arguments and tension in the home and increasing positive moments within the family.

Brighton claims football rivalry

BY JONATHAN MANESS SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

BRIGHTON – Chris Flynn’s coaching career at Brighton got off to an electrifying start Aug. 27.

The first-year coach guided the Brighton Bulldogs football team to a 34-6 victory over rival Prairie View during the season opener for both teams.

Flynn is no stranger to the crosstown rivalry. He replaced Jeff Giger as head coach and has been on staff at Brighton High School as teacher and spent time asthe team’s defensive coordinator.

“It was great for the players and staff to the get the first win,” Flynn said. “Every week should be like this. Prairie View played hard, and I think the kids on both sides showed a good mutual respect and demonstrated the type of sportsmanship that can make both schools proud.”

The game wasn’t all pretty. Both squads had their share of early-season errors, and the game was delayed in the fourth quarter due to a lightning strike. The delay lasted nearly two hours, which required the packed stadium to be cleared and both teams to evacuate to the locker room.

“They did a good job waiting out the storm,” Flynn said. “I am very happy how the kids responded and played after the break.”

The contest got off to a slow start.

Neither team was able to capitalize early. Prairie View’s first two possessions went deep into Brighton’s territory behind the strong running of Noah Leckemby and Ethan Cow-

ans. However, both drives stalled out in the red zone, and the ThunderHawks turned the ball over on downs.

Brighton’s offense found things just as challenging against Prairie View’s aggressive pass rush. Bryson Powell and Cole Rodriguez each collected early sacks, and the pressure led to an interception for Quintin Winzent in the second quarter.

Brighton’s two-minute offense started rolling late in the first half. Quarterback Nathaniel Griffeth connected on a 36-yard pass with Diavan Bejarano. Griffeth added a 22-yard scamper to set up a perfectly drawn 23-yard pass play to Noah Canale for the touchdown to give the Bulldogs a 7-0 advantage at the half.

Griffeth and Canale connected on another touchdown in the fourth quarter before the game was delayed.

MaxCisneros added another score for Brighton in the fourth to seal the victory.

“Having not played a scrimmage this season, this game gave us our first chance to see a live opponent,” Flynn said. “While the win gives us some momentum going into next week, we have no shortage of things to clean up.”

No stats were available for either team.

Brighton heads to Chatfield at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 3, at Jeffco Stadium in a non-league contest, while Prairie View has an away, nonleague game against Poudre at French Field in Fort Collins. Kickoff is at 7 p.m. Sept. 3.
