Community comes together for Elk Run Assisted Living after sprinkler flood BY DEB BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
everything from the July 4 music festival and the Evergreen Rodeo and Parade to the Elevation Celebration in Conifer, Canyonfest in Kittredge and Bailey Day — and with all of the events in between, there was something to do every weekend from Memorial Day to October. It was nice, as the Evergreen Pa-
The term, “It takes a village” was never so true for Elk Run Assisted Living on Dec. 18 when a malfunctioning sprinkler flooded a portion of the building, necessitating the evacuation and relocation of the 48 residents for two days. The list of organizations that helped is long: Evergreen Fire/Rescue, Jeffco Sheriff’s deputies, Jeffco Public Schools, Life Care Center of Evergreen, Comfort Suites, Mount Evans Hospice, residents’ families, staff and more. Despite everything that was going on, Elk Run staff says there were still smiles among residents, staff and helpers. While no one was in the building over the weekend, residents returned on Dec. 20 and 21. One apartment and its contents were destroyed by the water, the dining room will take major renovations and other apartments need repairs. Electricians, cleaners, drywallers and other craftspeople have come to the rescue. Stacee Martin, EFR spokeswoman, said firefighters were impressed

rade theme in 2021 said, to be back in the saddle again. Bike park gets yays, nays Full Send Bike Ranch, a proposal to put freeride mountain bike park on Shadow Mountain Drive two miles from Highway 73 in Conifer, hosted its community meeting in January. The developers believe the bike park will be an amenity to the Conifer area by bringing more people to local businesses and providing additional trails for mountain bikers. Neighbors, on the other hand, have formed a nonprofit to raise money to fight the proposal. Because the proposed development would be on 250 acres of land owned by the State Land Board, the developers have a separate approval process. The developers must submit a complete proposal to the Jefferson County Planning Commission, which has 30 days to meet and make a decision. The Land Board will abide by the commission’s decision. The developers propose a dayuse bike park with a chairlift, the only one of its kind in Colorado. It would be open generally from April to October, with a lodge that would provide a registration area, bike rentals, same-day bike repairs and a bar/lounge. Those opposed are most concerned about traffic on Shadow Mountain Drive, which is a two-lane road not built for excessive traffic,
the additional workload for emergency medical services, wildlife that migrate through the area and more. To play or not to play in Bear Creek The summer of 2021 brought some controversy in Kittredge after a new property owner who said she owned both sides of Bear Creek worked to stop people from trespassing. Bear Creek at Kittredge Park has been a popular spot for families to play in the water for decades, and the new owner was concerned about liability issues if someone were injured. Jeffco Open Space, which owns the Kittredge Park land, and the Evergreen Park & Recreation District, which manages the park, plus the Kittredge Civic Association conducted meetings with area residents and asked for civility while the propertyline issue could be sorted out. In November, an EPRD official said the property owner was having a property survey completed and was considering erecting a fence to designate her property. Two state championships Evergreen High School’s sports teams spent a good deal of time at state tournaments in 2021. In March, the girls swim team made a three-peat, winning the state championship three years in a row and five times in eight years. Girls lacrosse also won the 4A state championship, while girls soccer and boys lacrosse were runners-up. In addition, the Evergreen poms team placed second at state and fifth in the National Dance Alliance national competition for small varsity SEE YEAR IN REVIEW, P4

poms squads. School building makeovers Jeffco schools in the foothills have been getting makeovers — with some work already complete and other work in process — thanks to a mill levy passed by voters in 2018. Parmalee Elementary and Evergreen Middle School, for example, are getting classroom additions, while Wilmot Elementary and Conifer High School got new gymnasiums. A new Marshdale Elementary School is under construction, expected to be completed in August 2022. Other schools received security upgrades, improvements to classrooms and more. In addition, Evergreen Country Day School opened its gymnasium/ performing arts center, and Rocky Mountain Academy of Evergreen has started construction on The Den, its gym/performing arts center. New station for EFR moves forward Evergreen Fire/Rescue is moving forward with building a new Station 1 on the site of the former Evergreen Mountain Market. The department has hired F&D International to design the building, and the district hopes to start construction by 2023. Fire officials say they need the new building to replace the district’s oldest fire station on Highway 73 just south
of downtown Evergreen because Jefferson County intends to widen Highway 73 in 2023, which will make the area in front of the station too small for engines. In addition, newer fire engines, which are taller than older models, will not fit through the doors of the current building. Some Evergreen residents have asked EFR to slow down its efforts to build a new station in favor of spending more money on wildfire mitigation. Inter-Canyon puts station construction on hold Evergreen is not the only fire department planning to build new fire stations. Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District wants to rebuild its Stations 1 and 3, though it will hold off a year. The district has had plans drawn up for the two stations — Station 1 is the oldest in the district and Station 3 is the department’s flagship station on U.S. 285 — but it is having trouble getting bids. Construction firms are saying they’re still catching up from the work they weren’t able to complete during the pandemic. The department has decided to postpone hiring a contractor to do the work, saying it will revisit the issue in the first quarter of 2022. To consolidate or not Four fire departments along the U.S. 285 corridor are moving forward with discussions to consolidate. A consultant recommended in December that Inter-Canyon, Indian Hills, Elk Creek and North Fork fire
departments become one department spanning 400 square miles. However, it will take a few years before the four departments are ready to ask voters to approve such a change. The impetus for the discussion is the national trend of dwindling volunteers who want to train to be firefighters. As volunteerism is declining, calls are increasing. The fire districts, which have roots as volunteer departments, can’t afford all-paid firefighting staffs. While the four chiefs agree they are not in a crisis with staffing, they need to address the issue sooner rather than later. In addition, there’s cost savings when the four departments work together to train, buy equipment and share staff. The four fire chiefs plus representatives from the four elected boards are meeting to discuss the logistics of consolidation because there are a lot of issues to discuss. Development drama Development continues to be a sore spot for area residents, many opposing large development in Evergreen and Conifer. • Residents are upset about a proposal to build a hotel, retail and restaurants in El Rancho, a proposal that is still being reviewed by Jeffco Planning & Zoning. The developer has offered to move Foothills Fire Station 1 and the Alpine Rescue Team to new buildings, so he has more room for development. • The Wild Game in Bergen Park also filed a rezoning request to put up to 250 residential units on seven

acres. That request has not been heard by the Planning Commission. • A developer’s plan to put 188 homes behind the Conifer Safeway is still in litigation because he has sued Elk Creek Fire. The developer wants the court to force the fire department to approve an agreement to allow the developer, Foothills Housing 1, to buy the department a ladder truck and to pay for part of the salaries for three firefighters. Elk Creek Fire Chief Jacob Ware had sent Jeffco Planning and Zoning a letter saying it didn’t have the equipment or personnel to provide fire service to the development.

with the evacuation protocols Elk Run had in place. “They were doing the best with a bad situation,” Martin said. “We’re glad we could help out. I applaud them for finding different accommodations for the residents. It’s that community spirit that made it happen.” Elk Run staff said one of the best parts has been welcoming the residents back home. We should have had confetti and balloons,” Jamie Toussaint, Elk Run’s business office manager, said. “That’s what it felt like.” A whirlwind Saturday Around 11:30 a.m. on Dec. 18, water began pouring from the third-floor sprinkler system on the east end of the building, with water making it all of the way into the dining room. Marketing Director Lisa Carter said the water was mid-calf deep in the dining room. Evergreen Fire/Rescue and sheriff’s deputies arrived, the water and electricity were shut off, and Elk Run staff began following their disaster-drill protocols. Staff members who weren’t working came to the facility to help. Everyone in the building was evacuated, and luckily the weather was cooperating, so residents sat in the sun outside the building with blankets to keep them warm. Firefighters and staff helped residents get down the stairs since the eleva-
tor wasn’t working. Medications were organized, directions provided, and staff gathered some basic clothing and toiletries from the apartments they could get in. Domino’s delivered pizza, and staff provided snacks for residents and workers. Jeffco Public Schools provided wheelchair-accessible buses, while Mount Evans staff stopped in to check on their patients. Thirty-four residents stayed with family, while 10 stayed in an empty wing at the neighboring Life Care Center of Evergreen along with Elk Run staff. Four residents stayed in rooms at the Comfort Suites in El Rancho with an Elk Run staff member. Staff said it was gratifying that firefighters spent time talking oneon-one with the residents. “The firefighters held (the residents’) hands and talked with them,” Toussaint said. “That came from the heart. It was a beautiful moment.” Carter added: “Everybody just worked together. Overall, it was well managed and well organized. Our disaster-drill training came in handy.” Michell Quihuiz, Elk Run’s director of health services, called the

staff amazing for the work it did. “They knew what needed to be done, and they did it,” she said. Elk Run resident Roger Horn called the whole incident well managed, saying he’d give everyone an A for how well they handled the situation. John Sainsbury, whose mom Collier Sainsbury returned to Elk Run on Dec. 21, was glad everyone was safe. “It took teamwork among the staff and families,” he noted.
Staff members hope the dining area is ready soon, noting that it’s important for residents’ mental and physical health to eat meals together. While the building has other gathering places, and some tables have been placed in hallways, the dining room really is a centerpiece for gatherings at the facility. The resident who lost everything in his apartment is making the best of a bad situation, staff said. They said it was another example of what they learn every day: how to age.

One-woman show for Evergreen artist Maria Valentia Sheets’ stained glass to be displayed in Lakewood until Jan. 9 BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
“Sinners, Saints and Fools,” a solo exhibition of kiln-fired, painted stained glass by Evergreen artist Maria Valentina Sheets will be at Valkarie Gallery in Lakewood from until Jan. 9. Sheets of Evergreen will feature mostly portrait work, with all works being backlit in the gallery. The works range from five to 50 pounds. “I’ve got approximately 20 pieces in it — pretty significant, pretty detailed,” she said. One of her pieces is titled “The Void” and is a commentary on fame. The piece is meant to push people to

An excerpt from the description of Sheet’s exhibit describes it this way: “In the exhibit, `Sinners, Saints and Fools’ … artist Maria Valentina Sheets pushes the once traditional medium of iconographic, kiln-fired, stained-glass panel portraiture towards a contemporary homage by placing characters amidst the symbolic, often chaotic, detritus of modern environments.” Sheets, an artist and conservator, has experience working with high volume and high profile art collections. From being a contract conservator at

The Museum of Biblical Art in Dallas after a devastating fire to working with the personal collections of George Bush, Sheets has had many unique experiences throughout her career. Dipping into the world of stained glass in 2006, Sheets began to dabble with the art on her own and then even-
tually took a class. Now, her work is featured in many churches and buildings that will stand for years to come. “I think stained glass offered me a challenge and a refresher careerwise,” Sheets said. Sheets’ work has been featured in Stained Glass Magazine, and she recently designed a window for the Historic Vernon A.M.E. Church in Tulsa memorializing a violent race massacre that took place in 1921. Misty Keasler, a fellow visual artist and friend for nearly two decades, appreciates all the artistic endeavors Sheets has made over the years. “She’s such a fascinating person to know. Anything she gets interested in she becomes a master at,” Keasler said. Even though Keasler’s medium is photography, she still recognizes the skill that Sheets brings to the table. “She is by far one of the most talented people I’ve ever met,” Keasler said.
SHERIFF’S CALLS Face crime CONIFER – Philosophies collided in the produce section on the afternoon of Dec. 2 when a customer wearing her county-mandated mask ran headlong into one wearing only a defiant attitude. Ms. Mask felt moved to make comment regarding Defiant’s maskless mug. Defiant felt moved to respond by letting her have it with both profane barrels.
Having that very morning received a “warning call” from Jeffco Health about “enforcing the mask mandate,” the store manager felt obliged to explain the nuts and bolts of the mandate to Defiant, and hoped to “defuse the situation” by offering him a free mask. Defiant was only too aware of the county’s order, and Manager’s attempt to disarm his diatribe set him off in earnest. After
giving Manager a taste of semantic C-4, he social-distanced his way out to the parking lot where he could “yell and curse” in compliance with Jeffco’s decree. Summoning deputies, Manager asked that Defiant be officially banned from the premises, although perhaps she needn’t have bothered. “I’m moving out of Colorado,” disclosed Defiant.

Wreaths Across America volunteers place more than 200 wreaths at Evergreen Memorial Park BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Ce 40 lebr Ye ati ar ng s
Saying their names aloud and saluting their memorial sites, Evergreen veterans and volunteers remembered the fallen at a Wreaths Across America event on Dec. 18. The Evergreen Memorial Park ceremony in Marshdale was led by the Evergreen American Legion Post 2001. After discussing the sacrifices veterans make for the country, the legion presented arms and fired off ceremonial shots. Wreaths were presented for each branch of the military, including the Space Force and veterans with the designation of POW or MIA. After the presentation of the branches, volunteers began to place wreaths on individual stakes that had the names of a veteran on them. Each time a wreath was laid, the veteran’s name was said aloud, and the veteran was thanked for his or her service. The group laid 225 wreaths. On Dec. 18 at 3,136 locations across the country, volunteers placed more than 2.4 million wreaths to remember fallen veterans. An event like this had special meaning for some of the area veterans. Vern Stelzer, a Vietnam vet, summed up the importance of com-
ing to an event like this. “Paying homage to those who have gone,” he said. “The spirit moves on.” Evergreen’s Wreaths Across America event has taken place for several years. Many of the volunteers present had been to all of the ceremonies. Scott Coffer, who was a part of the American Legion’s opening ceremony, hopes to see this event continue. “One day, one of those will be my wreath,” he said. The Evergreen Elks Lodge No. 2363 supported the event, and many members came out to volunteer. Ron Lewis, founder of Evergreen Memorial Park, talked about another significance of the day. “Today is a special day because we are burying our first vet in the military section,” he said. Evergreen Memorial Park recently opened the military section in its cemetery. After the wreath-placing ceremony, the first veteran was interred in the section: Sid Whitford, an Air Force veteran. While Evergreen Memorial Park is privately owned, Lewis still does what he can to extend his respect to veterans. “We donate a lot to a vet if they want to be buried here,” he said. Lewis says there are many reasons why a veteran would not want to be buried in a national cemetery, but one big reason has to do with Evergreen itself. “Some don’t want to go to Ft. Logan (National Cemetery in Denver); they want to stay part of the community,” he said.

VOICES Tread lightly on additional police reform
ut for the unprecedented recess because of the pandemic, the Colorado General Assembly would have adjourned before George Floyd was murdered in 2020. With the legislature back in session as public reaction to seeing Floyd die as Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck created calls for action, Colorado passed a wide-reaching police reform bill. It included several things that had failed earlier in the session. When the legislature came back in 2021, additional reforms were added despite concerns raised by law enforcement officials that not enough time had passed for the impact of the 2020 bill to be fully understood. As we continue to assess the implications of changes from both 2020 and 2021, reform minded legislators will continue the push for more
changes when the General Assembly reconvenes January 12. One thing that we do know is that criminal activity has increased dramatically since these changes have been made to Colorado law. As crime Columnist rates are up all over the country, it would be simplistic and wrong to blame the bills’ passage for the increase of crime in our state. But it would be just as wrong to ignore the fact that crime has increased during a time when legislative action has made fundamental changes to how law enforcement personnel do their jobs on a day-to-day basis. As legislators prepare to consider
GREG ROMBERG
additional changes to public policy about criminal justice, it’s time to focus more on understanding what is happening and less on continuing to pass policies that make it less likely that people accused of crimes will be incarcerated and that tie the hands of law enforcement officers. As with all difficult policy questions, there are many competing interests in these discussions and reasonable people can and do disagree. There is no doubt that there are examples of police misconduct that cannot be tolerated and holding officers responsible for their actions is both necessary and appropriate. Similarly, there is no excuse for police treating people differently based on race or other inappropriate criteria. On the other hand, when people do bad things and violate the law, there must be real consequences for those actions, or they
will continue to victimize the rest of us and violate the law. Before the legislature passed the 2021 bills, there was compelling testimony by businesses that said their premises had been repeatedly violated by the same people who were arrested and released multiple times. Criminal justice reform will continue to be a high-profile issue at the General Assembly In 2022, Coloradans will be better served if we take a step back to fully understand the implications of the changes made in the last two years and the reasons for increased criminal activity before additional changes are made. Greg Romberg is president of Romberg and Associates. He lives in Evergreen with his wife, Laurie.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR In response to “Fire flow in Evergreen hydrants” The article posted by David Chapman, “Fire flow in Evergreen hydrants,” is misleading and paints the Evergreen Fire District and Evergreen Metro District in a bad light. Both districts are very aware of the limitations of the fire flow within the area covered by the water districts. The water district was started before there were any standards. At the time it was recognized that any fire flow was better than none. Newer areas do have the fire flow and the cost to upgrade the older area is unnecessary, the fire department can compensate using water tenders. The fire district did test the hydrants yearly and does know what to expect from the fire flow. After paying out thousands of dollars fixing damaged driveways, landscaping, and homes, it was decided that it was unproductive to annually flow the hydrants. The volunteers know the areas where they can expect good fire flow and the areas they need to bring their water. You stated the minimum fire flow required using water tenders is 250 gallons per minute (GPM) over a five-mile run. The district without mutual aid is capable of over 500 gpm and with mutual aid is capable of close to 1,000 gpm, the minimum fire flow. Only 12% of the district is within the water district, so they are very comfortable not using hydrants. Also, it is unfair to use the fire and water district as a means to further your political agenda. Talk to your county commissioners or start a city. Peter Anderson, Evergreen Thinking about the Aguilera-Mederos sentencing Ever since the tragic wreck on I-70 that took the lives of four people, I have been thinking about this event and what the outcome would be for Mr. Rogel Aguilera-Mederos, who has been sentenced to 110 years in prison, a penalty I consider horrific. Most responsibility should be placed on the trucking company, which should have provided Mr. Aguilera-Mederos with a well-maintained vehicle — and trained him for mountain driving. I travel this section of highway daily from my home on Floyd Hill. I routinely pass trucks going down the hill with brakes smoking. This tragedy could have happened to any one of those drivers. The emergency lane available to Mr. Aguilera-Mederos and other truck drivers is situated in a way that gives the appearance of driving off a cliff. The man was riding a rocket out of control down a hill under extreme panic, his heart likely beating through his chest. It would indeed be hard to make the split-second decision to aim for the safety lane. A difficult part of this tragedy is the real loss of life suffered by four people. My heart goes out to their families. Still, as a conservative Independent voter, I hope Gov. Polis helps avert this obscenely harsh sentence by granting clemency. I still want the world to view our country as that “beacon on a hill,” a place of fairness for immi-
grants as well as for citizens. Dave Porter, Evergreen Regarding Senator Manchin’s “NO” decision on “Build Back Better” To Senators Manchin, Bennet, Hickenlooper, “No dish of reform was ever harmed by a seasoning of common sense.” Wm. C. Beyer Sen. Manchin, you are applauded. An equally divided Congress will now have a chance to reign in costly spending while providing a pathway for new legislation. Senator, many Americans agree with you that your party rushed to pass “a one size fits all” giant spending package too expensive and too out of reach for most Americans to trust. Congress is better served to step back and take next year to analyze core essentials of each component, then return and introduce each plan under separate legislation. It is better to have an obtainable half loaf of bread than an unobtainable whole loaf. And to our two Colorado senators, I ask, please deny the privilege of congressional gimmicks that masquerade the real economic impact of legislation over their intended life. If you budget something for one year but expect more in sequential years, you really undermine the importance of this legislation and may ultimately doom its relevance. This alone railroaded “Build Back Better” in my opinion. Be reminded we now have an equally divided Congress in a divided nation, no party has the power of a majority, particularly if you dismiss the independent voter, of which I am one. George Long, Evergreen
Be wild-aware out there Thank you for the recent front-page article about Wild Aware in The Canyon Courier on December 8, 2021. As the population in this area continues to grow, wildlife and human encounters are inevitable. Wild Aware was founded in 2019 to reduce the number of elk-vehicle collisions along Highway 74 in Evergreen and has since expanded to include education, resources and advocacy for Colorado’s wildlife including reducing wildlife-vehicle collisions, providing on-site wildlife education and safety tips at Evergreen Lake, and working to reduce bear-human conflicts. My husband and I recently moved to Evergreen, having lived out of state for several years. We noticed Wild Aware’s presence soon after returning last spring, with signs along Highway 74, alerting drivers to stay alert and actively look for elk. Wild Aware is a non-profit, relying on support from the community in terms of donations and volunteers. For additional information on Wild Aware, please visit wildaware.org/. Margie Abernethy, Evergreen

SHERIFF’S CALLS FROM PAGE 6
brand new car smell that comes standard with a 2022 Tacoma. His satisfaction took a hit near Jubilee Trail when he first heard a sharp crack, and then saw one in his brand new windshield. Assuming that his cherry ride had been targeted by envious vandals, he reported to JCSO that the vehicle had been “shot by something.” Deputies, on the other hand, knew rock damage when they saw it and assured the complainant he was victim only to an indifferent universe.
Disassembly required EL RANCHO – Following a sketchy character around the store on the evening of Dec. 1, the loss prevention officer watched as his quarry stuffed “pens and pencils” into his backpack and then “walked to the electronics department.” Still under discreet observation, the brazen bandit “took the glass doors off the track” of a display case and added one or more sets of headphones to his backpack of booty. When the man headed outside without paying for anything, he was detained by store personnel and deputies were summoned. Because the thief hadn’t damage the glass doors or their case, he was not cited for willful destruc-
tion of property. Taking apart a display, however, proved good for a second degree criminal tampering citation, while boosting the Bics and Earbuds bought him shoplifting beef. On the house line, presumably EVERGREEN – It was the boldest of crimes. Arriving home mid-morning, she’d parked in the garage, taken a moment to tidy up the car, then closed the garage door and went inside the house. Almost instantly realizing she’d left her cell phone in the car, she went back out to the garage to get it. The garage door was still closed, the car exactly as she’d left it, the neat bay visibly
untouched, and yet the phone was gone. When she dialed its number from a different phone, the call went straight to voicemail, indicating that the device had been turned off, and when a thorough search of the premises uncovered no clue to its whereabouts, she called JCSO. Although she never said so outright, the scope of the offense was crystal clear – some desperate criminal had contrived to enter the closed garage, snatch the instrument from the car, and steal away again, all in the space of a minute, tops, and without alerting the complainant to their presence or leaving any trace. Deputies said they’d give her a call if they heard anything.
