City approves controversial annexation Nearby homeowners fear their areas will be scooped up By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Despite pleas from upset homeowners, the City of Centennial picked up a few more acres of real estate surrounding two subdivisions located in unincorporated Arapahoe County.

While the annexation of five parcels of open space does not include the Tuscany and Siena subdivisions, City Planner Andrew Firestine says it does turn them into an enclave by sufficiently surrounding them with land that’s part of Centennial, which would permit the city, in three years, to unilaterally suck up more than 1,400 homes. The city thinks residents who live in Siena and Tuscany should pay their share for city services they use, and that the move doesn’t mean they’ll be annexed, just that the option is preserved for a future city council.

Siena and Tuscany residents who spoke at the April 15 city council weren’t convinced, some calling it just short of “taxation without representation.” “By giving this option to a future city council, you essentially take away the option of any Siena or Tuscany resident to have any say whatsoever,” said Jimmy Sengenberger, one of the affected homeowners. Other residents asked Mayor Cathy Noon and city council to consider only annexing all but one of the parcels, which would not create an enclave. “If you truly want to annex parks, take them,” said John Gay, “but don’t take The

Farm just so you can enclave. You have the law on your side, but it doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to do.” Should the subdivisions eventually be annexed, the city says the property tax difference would be negligible, meaning that a $500,000 home in either neighborhood would see an annual increase in such taxes of approximately $5. “I, personally, would not vote to annex Tuscany or Siena today,” admitted a conflicted Noon. “You’ve heard that financially it doesn’t look like it is to be a benefit to the city, and I would not want to annex folks Annexation continues on Page 12

Elections bill stirs passion

Ready to take off

Democrats see more involvement; Republicans predict greater fraud By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com A Democratic-sponsored bill that would put in place sweeping changes to how Colorado elections are conducted passed a state legislative committee on April 15, following a lengthy and heavily debated hearing that went deep into the night. House Bill 1303 would change the state’s election code to allow for sameday voter registration and would put ballots in the mailboxes of every registered voter. The bill also would do away Report with a system where “inactive” voters — those who did not vote in the previous election — do not continue to receive mail-in ballots. Democrats say the changes would encourage more involvement in the voting process, and would save taxpayer dollars on things like voting equipment, because fewer people would need to vote in person. The bill’s sponsors argue that Colorado voters want greater voting access and that legislators should respond to their desires. “People have demanded that we reform our elections system, and it is time for us to design an election system around our voters,” House Majority Leader Dickey Lee Hullinghorst, DGunbarrel, a bill sponsor, told members of the House State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee. But Republicans argue that the changes could lead to greater voting fraud and that the Democrats’ efforts on the bill are self-serving attempts to boost their own party’s voter rolls. Applause erupted from the audience when Rep. Tim Dore, R-Elizabeth, questioned the sponsors’ motives, telling committee members, “I don’t hear the outcry from voters.”

Report card gives Centennial high marks Mayor says the city has lived up to goals set 10 years ago By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com When the City of Centennial was incorporated more than a decade ago, it laid out a strategic plan containing 14 guiding principles and goals it hoped to achieve by 2012. Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon detailed those goals before a crowd of more than 250 business leaders, elected officials and others at the annual State of the City address, held April 11 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Centennial. “Our wonderful city isn’t just happenstance,” Noon said. “It is the result of a wellthought-out plan that was set in motion years ago, a plan that we have implemented and that we will take into the future — a plan of vision combined with leadership.” So how does Centennial stack up against its decade-old goals? Fairly well, according to Noon. Among the city’s first goals were those tied to financial stability, including a bal-

Sign language speaks of community Nadelle Payne, a high school teacher of American Sign Language, can go all day without talking to someone other than her students. She is deaf. “I can pass people in the hall and say `Hi,’” she says through an interpreter. “But not a conversation.” So, on a recent Saturday, she and about 25 other deaf women and men, including high school and college students studying ASL, gathered at a Starbucks in Highlands Ranch to talk. The conversations — lively, graceful, expressive — continued for hours. Fingers moved swiftly. Arms glided, up and down, back and forth. Emotion danced across animated faces. All of it, together, words without sound spinning eloquent stories, woven in a warmth born of shared community. “To immerse ourselves in our own language” is a gift, a reprieve from the isolation that comes with being deaf, Payne says. “Hearing people can talk every day, on the phone … all the time. We talk when we have someone to sign with.” The monthly Starbucks gathering is one of many in the area designed to nurture connection and fellowship among a populace defined by its unique communication and culture. There are deaf social chats at restaurants in Boulder and Castle Rock, silent bowling nights at an alley in Lone Tree, festivals and ASL performances at Rocky Mountain School for the Deaf in Lakewood, an ASL haunted house night during Halloween, a deaf social chat in Superior, a meeting for deaf senior citizens in Denver. “It is like you are going to deaf Mecca where there are all deaf native signers,” says Michelle Stricklen, an ASL instructor at Front Range Community College who is deaf. “It is,” she says in an email, “phenom-

enal to me.” Pam Meadows, a Castle Rock resident and California transplant who has been deaf since birth, started the monthly socials at the Highlands Ranch Starbucks about 2½ years ago. “We come here to socialize,” she says through her friend Dawn Davies, a Littleton schools counselor who is not deaf and is interpreting. “But it also helps ASL students so they can experience what deaf people are like.” Davies, who began learning to sign in first grade, attends many of these events to visit with friends. But as a school counselor she also helps introduce first-timers, particularly students, to the group. “I like to help bridge the gap a little bit.” A handful of high school students from Castle Rock and Highlands Ranch are here this day. It is their second visit. They come to practice signing, but they’ve picked up on some other aspects of deaf culture, too. “They’re really close,” Shawna Doughten says. “You can talk across the room,” Makayla Elms says with a smile. “They’re not different,” Paige Luke says. “Other people think they’re handicapped, but they’re not.” The three teens, along with Kayla Hendrickson from Castle Rock, have fallen in love with the language. “It’s just so expressive,” Hendrickson says. “I love how it’s really metaphoric … how you can kind of get creative with it.”

“When you’re describing stuff, you’re supposed to try to create a picture,” Elms says. “You use a lot of motion,” Luke says. The language is actually more straightforward, points out Jazelle Edwards, 9, here with her mother, who is deaf. She is not, though. “You don’t have to say the little words,” such as “and” and “the.” “Sign language is so much fun to talk,” says Clay Amos, who with his fiancee Ivy Oswald recently moved from Pennsylvania. They’ve come to meet new people. Although both are deaf, Amos can lip read and speak; Oswald has a cochlear implant, which allows her to hear, and she can speak. “It’s feelings,” Amos says about signing. “It makes you laugh.” “It is,” Oswald says with a smile, “theatrical.” And just like a spoken language, it has tones and accents, the students say. “People have tones with their voice,” Hendrickson says. “You kind of have a tone of your sign. Everyone signs differently.” George Veditz, former president of the National Association of the Deaf, said this about sign language in 1913: “It is my hope that we will all love and guard our beautiful sign language as the noblest gift God has given to deaf people.” And it is beautiful. To watch people sign is to watch stories unfold like the lyrical melody of a song. You can sense the happiness, the sadness, the excitement, the disappointment — even when you don’t know what the signs mean. But that inability to understand often creates discomfort among those who can’t communicate back, similar to being in a country whose language is not your own. “Many people are intimidated by us,” Payne acknowledges. “It takes a lot of effort for hearing people to communicate” with those who can’t hear.

Stricklen tells the story of asking a flight attendant for a menu and being given one in Braille. “I told her, `No, I just need regular.’ Am I blind?” At the other end of the spectrum, Payne says, “we are afraid we will be misunderstood.” The key, as with anyone who doesn’t know your language, is to try. “We like having friends,” Payne says. “We like it when people make an effort to try and communicate.” On this day, around the tables in the coffee shop, the barriers are down. Two women stand by the door, lost in conversation, eyes focused on each other’s signs. Next to them, Makayla Elms and Paige Luke are signing with little Jazelle and her older brother. Nearby, Payne, Davies and Meadows are in deep conversation with a group clustered in chairs. And at the tall table across the way is Oswald, hands moving, fingers working, animated as she and Amos sign with new friends. A peacefulness of sorts quietly connects them all. They are, in a sense, home. Watch, and listen carefully. The silence speaks loudly. Ann Macari Healey’s column about people, places and issues of everyday life appears every other week.

Cherry Knolls fish kill mystery solved By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com A mysterious fish kill at a Centennial pond has been linked to a faulty piece of equipment that depleted the water of oxygen. Jamie DeBartolomeis, spokeswoman for South Suburban Parks and Recreation, confirmed that “a compressor on the pond’s aerator was malfunctioning, which affected oxygen levels in the pond, and oxygen depletion in the pond is attributable to the fish dying.” On April 9, district park rangers discovered dead fish floating in Cherry Knolls Pond and immediately contacted a fish biologist with Colorado Parks and Wildlife to study the problem. A statement from South Suburban said several water samples were collected and tested. Results indicated there were no pollutants or viruses in the pond. “As of Friday, April 12, the aerator that caused the problem has been replaced and

is operating,” said DeBartolomeis. “And so far, no more dead fish have been found.” The situation mainly affected carp living in the pond, and DeBartolomeis said district park rangers removed the dead fish on a daily basis to keep the area clean. “We don’t really have an accurate count of how many fish died,” DeBartolomeis said. “We just clean them up and throw them away.” While fishing is permitted in Cherry Knolls Pond, DeBartolomeis said she is unsure of how the incident has affected stock levels. The pond is on a yearly stocking schedule, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife will be restocking it on a future date when it has been determined that the pond will sustain fish. “That decision is entirely up to them,” she said. “South Suburban has no say in when or how the pond is stocked.” District park rangers and other staff will continue to monitor the site on an ongoing basis. Cherry Knolls Pond is located in Cherry Knolls Park, 7077 S. Elizabeth St.

d Bill would OK licenses for illegal immigrants Sponsor predicts reduction in uninsured motorists By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com

Colorado residents who are in the country illegally may soon be able to obtain driver’s licenses, after a bill proposing such a measure passed a state legislative committee on April 10. State Senate Bill 251 would allow immigrants to apply for state-issued IDs that are only meant to be used for driving purposes. Democratic Sen. Jessie Ulibarri of Commerce City, the bill’s sponsor, said during an April 10 Senate Judiciary Committee aulty hearing that the measure would result in a reduction of unlicensed and uninsured motorists in Colorado. Ulibarri said immigrants are driving anyway, and that it’s in everyone’s benefit that they are doing so lawfully and are carrying proper insurance. “At some point we must recognize that our (immigrant) neighbors are here,” Ulibarri said. “We see them every day in the grocery store. We see them in our local communities, at church or passing by at school. To have a system that ignores their presence means we have a policy that really discourages honesty, and it’s at the expense of public safety.” The bill would require immigrants to show certain types of legal documentation whenever they seek a driver’s license, such as an ID from their country of origin and proof that they have filed state income taxes. That’s in addition to standard driving tests. Those who obtain these “separate category” types of licenses would not be able to use them to board airplanes or to register

to vote. Ulibarri cited statistics from neighboring states that have similar laws, including Utah and New Mexico, where he said the numbers of uninsured drivers have dropped significantly over the years. Denver Police Sgt. Michael Farr testified that the bill would help law enforcement agencies’ relationships with the immigrant community in investigating crimes, and would result in fewer drivers leaving the scenes of accidents. Other witnesses provided personal narratives about the challenges associated with not being able to obtain driver’s licenses. Esmeralda Dominguez of Denver testified that she is a U.S. citizen, but that her husband is not. She said they have a son who must attend several medical appointments a week, and that she is the only one who can take him because her husband cannot legally drive. “This issue has nothing to do with ... immigration issues,” she said. “(My husband) qualifies for (legal status), but that’s taking a long time. This is affecting my family. It is an everyday issue we’re dealing with.” No one testified in opposition to the bill, which passed the Democratic-controlled committee on a 3-2 party-line vote. Republican Sen. Kevin Lundberg of Berthoud, a committee member, told Ulibarri he had “several concerns with this bill on several levels.” He said he doesn’t think the measure would make the roads safer and that he is concerned that more people would come to Colorado illegally, for such a privilege. “This is one more step down the road toward amnesty,” Lundberg said. “It creates a magnet.” The bill now heads to the full Senate for a vote.

Finalists selected for business awards By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com The South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce will honor local business leaders and entrepreneurs at its 28th Annual Small Business Leadership Awards event, set for May 1. This year saw 125 nominees, a record year, according to chamber President and CEO John Brackney, who said that number was whittled down to 36, and then down to nine finalists. “There’s childbirth, there’s marriage, there’s graduation,” mused Brackney. “And all of these are important things, but so is small business because you put yourself out there and you deal with the complexity of starting and succeeding in business. This is an opportunity to celebrate that, too.” The annual sold-out event returns to the Comedy Works-South at 5345 S. Landmark Place in Greenwood Village, and will feature Animal Planet veterinarian and stand-up comedian Dr. Kevin Fitzgerald as emcee.

Planning underway for B-cycle program Event launches effort to bring shared bikes to Arapahoe By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Joel Phillips, working with the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce, is sponsoring an April 22 open house to launch the effort to establish B-cycle stations to Arapahoe County communities. “We are inviting community officials and residents to come by and look at the Bcycle station program offering the opportunity to share a bike. Visitors can even take a ride on one of the bikes,” said Phillips, the chamber board member spearheading the project. “The share-a-bike programs have worked well in other communities including Denver and Boulder, reducing pollution, getting cars off the road and getting fat off the people.” The open house will be held from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. April 22 in the Englewood Civic Center piazza. The piazza is located adjacent to the civic center at 1000 Englewood

“I’m trying to get my arms around why we’re doing this,” he said. The bill passed the Democratic-controlled committee on a 7-4 vote, on the heels of a hearing that lasted more than seven hours. Among those who testified was Jefferson County Clerk Pam Anderson, a Republican who is the president of the Colorado County Clerks Association, who said the bill puts “ballots in the hands of voters in a cost-effective manner.” “As a whole, over three quarters of (CCCA members) support this legislation as an important and timely policy that looks to the future,” Anderson said. Anderson also tried to alleviate the concerns that mailing ballots to every regis-

Parkway. Phillips said he got interested in the rent-a-bike program when he undertook a personal journey seeking to adopt a healthier lifestyle, which included bike riding. “That got me interested in the bike-sharing program and I began doing research to see what it would take to bring the program to Arapahoe County,” he said. “The first step is creation of a new organization called Arapahoe B-Cycle and obtaining official tax-exempt status. Then, we’ll begin the fundraising efforts necessary to get the first phase of the program up and running by the spring of 2014.” Phillips said tentative phase-one plans would set up 10 stations located near the light rail stations in Englewood, Littleton and Sheridan. The expanded phase would establish stations in Greenwood Village, Centennial and Aurora. The Denver Bike Shares program was established in 2010 and the first full season was March to November 2011. Individuals can purchase an annual, monthly or weekly membership, plus walk-up customers can use available bikes.

tered voter in the state would lead to greater voting fraud. She said the bill would provide “necessary security for the (voting) system” and that there really isn’t much fraud going on in Colorado elections to begin with. Several Republican officeholders oppose the bill, including El Paso County Clerk and Recorder Wayne Williams, who believes that same-day voter registration would make it impossible to catch those who try to cheat the system. “The more the people of the State of Colorado and El Paso County learn about this terrible piece of legislation, the more they don’t like it,” Williams said in a news release prior to the hearing. Republican Secretary of State Scott Gessler, who vehemently opposes the bill, called the legislation “flawed.” “This is an example of bad government,” he said. The bill now moves to the House Appropriations Committee.

Firefighter grateful for second chance Trivial things are set aside after near-death experience By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com Firefighter Nick Gravina has performed hundreds of life-saving procedures on other people. He never expected to be on the receiving end. A 10-year veteran of the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, Gravina has always been regarded as one of the more physically fit crew members. And he proved it the morning of May 14, 2012, by finishing a grueling annual fitness test in an impressive one minute, 48 seconds. A short time later, however, the 41-yearold felt pain in his chest. He initially chalked it up to indigestion and tried to take a nap. But the nagging pain prompted him to tell a co-worker. Shelly Davis, a South Metro firefighter for 14 years, remembers that Gravina’s color

didn’t look quite right when he entered the workout room at station 47. Alarmed, she hooked him up to a LifePak heart monitor and defibrillator after getting a “weird feeling.” The monitor indicated that Gravina’s heart was not receiving enough oxygen, and as she placed additional patches on his chest to get a more accurate reading, Gravina collapsed. Lt. Steve Woodrick called an ambulance to the three-person station and began administering CPR. Davis shocked Gravina and got no response. Minutes later, Gravina regained consciousness and was alert and talking in the ambulance. But as the ambulance arrived at Parker Adventist Hospital, Gravina went into cardiac arrest again. The married father of two boys doesn’t remember being clinically dead for an hour. When all was said and done, Gravina had been shocked 18 times and undergone extensive CPR. His family and co-workers, not knowing whether he had suffered permanent brain damage, waited anxiously for days before Gravina woke up, seemingly unscathed with the exception of some fatigue and

Doctors removed a clot commonly known as the “widow maker” and placed a stent in his heart. Since then, Gravina has taken a considerable amount of time to think about what might have been. The “big reality check” changed his perspective on life. “I almost didn’t go home that day. I almost didn’t see my kids again,” said Gravina, who has lived in the Parker area for 15 years. “I’m not sure why or how it happened. I just know I made it.”

Other than the chest pain immediately preceding his collapse, there were no warning signs. He doesn’t have high cholesterol or high blood pressure or a family history of heart troubles. Doctors believe the strenuous activity from the physical agility test might have triggered the movement of the clot, but were unable to give Gravina a definitive explanation on a cause. He has spent the last year fearing that it could happen again, but mostly has tried to focus on making the most of his second chance, while improving his diet. Gravina admits to being “kind of embarrassed” by the whole ordeal, but words can’t express how happy his colleagues are that they were able to intervene in time. “It’s definitely an added stress when it’s someone you know, but being a medic for so long, I kind of went on autopilot,” said Davis, who spent 22 years as an emergency medical technician. “I’m glad I was there and was fortunate enough to be able to function without falling apart emotionally.” Davis says she still gets choked up when seeing Gravina around the firehouse, and couldn’t help but shed a few tears during an awards ceremony in early March. Gravina felt compelled to thank the South Metro crew members who helped save his life. “I did my best to tell them what it meant to me, what they did for me,” he said. Gravina says he no longer allows himself to dwell on trivial things and has made a point of spending more time with family.

opinions / yours and ours

Even a growth industry must have borders The work of both a task force and a committee is done, and now the business of drawing up rules to implement Amendment 64 is in the hands of the Colorado General Assembly. With less than a month left in the 2013 session, the Legislature will need to hustle on the matter of recreational marijuana. As lawmakers debate the merits of the recommendations they’ve been handed, one issue that will come up is how to deal with pot tourism. Already, a company promising cannabis-related vacations has sprouted in Denver, with April 20 — also known endearingly by many marijuanasmokers as “4/20” — being its first big push. It seems unlikely the Legislature would

our view altogether ban out-of-state folks from purchasing pot. Doing so would be against the advice of the Amendment 64 Task Force and would cost the state a potentially large source of revenue. But there could be limits imposed, perhaps below the threshold of those facing residents, on how much marijuana visitors could legally procure. And, certainly, the law would require them to smoke or otherwise partake here in the Centennial State. Amid myriad gray areas, at least one

question of the week

“I don’t really keep up with politics all that much, but overall I’d give them an F with the exception of one area, and that’s the medical marijuana issue. In that case, I’d give them an A.” — Duaine Miller, Aurora “I give them a solid B. So far, so good. I don’t follow politics all that much, but I think people in other states probably have it worse. Seems everybody here is pretty content, and that makes me happy.” — Brandon Alder, Centennial

That’s my story, and I’m a stick in the mud My therapist and I have been talking about dancing. Just not with each other. We’re trying to figure out why I have no interest in dancing or dance. I won’t do “The Loco-Motion” or “The Mashed Potato.” I don’t watch dancing, either. Ballet, ballroom, belly, pole, line, none of it. Torture would be watching “Dancing with the Stars.” Extreme torture would be watching “Lord of the Dance.” I don’t even like the Soupy Shuffle. A friend of mine sent me a YouTube of some fellow who had spliced together snippets of him doing the same appalling jig in locations around the world. She wasn’t happy when I said it was absolutely dreadful So far, all my therapist and I have been able to come up with is that I may have had a profoundly adverse reaction to glimpsing Arthur Murray when I was a boy. He always had a disturbing smile on his face, like a carousel horse. I don’t imagine there is anyone else anywhere who feels the same way about dancing as I do. I prefer to be largely inert. Keep the foxtrot away from me. No Native American dances, please. Hulas? No, no, no. Even the Ice Capades gives me the willies. Everyone else either loves to dance, watch dancing, or both. I don’t know what happened with me. My guess is that Boo Radley didn’t dance either, and that’s how I saw myself when I was in high school and college. That perception has changed, but I am still very reclusive, and I think I always will be. My drinking years didn’t loosen me up either. Well. They loosened me up to other things, but not moving and grooving. I don’t listen to dance music. Maybe that’s a part of it. I listen to Beethoven and Mozart. There may have been some dancing going on in “Amadeus.” I can’t remember. But dancing to Sinfonia Concertante would never cross my mind. Painting to it would. Perhaps painting is how I dance. The canvas is my partner? Maybe that’s a

While that amount would have been against the law even in Colorado — where residents may legally possess up to 1 ounce for recreational purposes or up to 2 ounces for medicinal reasons — it does shine a light on a problem. A commander with a Kansas drug task force told reporters Colorado pot is increasingly becoming a concern in his state. Like it or not, Colorado may be well on its way to becoming known as a destination spot for pot enthusiasts. But developing a reputation among neighboring states as a source of contraband is not acceptable. Our state’s legislators, law enforcement agencies and residents should work to nip this problem in the bud.

Here is the other problem I encountered while attempting to become a minimalist: too much access to too many things and too much information all in one location. Maybe it’s my lack of focus, but I am literally a less productive reader than when I was reading just one book at a time. So many people know that I am a voracious reader and recommend books for me to read. So I research the book, and if it sounds interesting I download it. Before I know it, I have left one book and moved on to another before finishing the first one.

thing is black and white: What’s smoked in Colorado must stay in Colorado. We’re not endorsing use of marijuana in any way, but if you choose to use, remember that you are breaking the law if you take it outside state lines. Kansas, for one, has been a nervous neighbor since Amendment 64’s passage in November. Last month, Kansas’ appeals court ruled it is illegal to possess pot even if it was legally purchased in another state. (For that matter, possession is still in violation of federal law, but that’s a larger matter for another day.) Earlier this month, a Colorado woman was arrested in Salina, Kan., on charges of marijuana possession. She had nearly 4 pounds of pot, police say.

when traveling, I have to discipline myself and limit myself to one active book at a time. I wish that was the only challenge I had. You see, I read a lot of reference, business, faith-based and history books. I like to write notes in the margins and highlight and underscore the text. I know I can do that on my e-reader or iPad, but nowhere near as fast and as efficiently as I can with my pen and highlighters. Lastly, as I sit in my office and make calls, write proposals, write columns and coach clients, I can look at my bookshelf and see all the titles right in front of me in one location. My eyes can scan my shelves while talking on the phone and I can immediately pull a book off the shelf and look for the dog-eared pages or sticky-note tabs and find what I am looking for right at that moment of need. When I thought about boxing up all of my books and when I imagined the empty shelves with a lone e-reader or iPad, I knew I had to find a happy medium and that going “all-in” with a digital solution was not the answer for me. So I am back to the bookstore, back to carrying one book with me in my bag, enjoying the feel of the book, the smell of the ink (It’s almost like that new-car smell, you know what I mean?), and the sound as I turn each page. And I also carry my iPad where I keep just a couple of active materials. I downloaded an awesome reference Bible and I use my reader for the magaNorton continues on Page 9

Budget bill is example of compromise The one bill that the Colorado General Assembly must pass every year is the budget. Also known as the “Long Bill,” SB-230 is in its final stages of making its way to the governor as the session winds down. Although far from perfect, the bill is a compromise that earned my support during its initial vote in the House. Whether I stick with the final product depends on how it returns to us after what promise to be tense negotiations with the Senate. At $21.9 billion, this is the largest budget in state history. There is a “good news, bad news” aspect about the budget. The good news is that state revenues, and hence the state budget, are a direct reflection of the economy. And what’s not to like about a growing economy? The bad news is that with the state firmly in Democratic control, we will spend every penny that comes in with no thought given to refunding surpluses to taxpayers. Primarily because it was the most money the state has ever spent in a year, not one Republican voted for it in the Senate. While I certainly share the concern about ever-larger

government, there were important concessions made by House Democrats that caused me to join with 18 other House Republicans to support the measure. The most important of these was Democratic support for a Republican amendment to set aside $141 million to repay, early and in full, a state debt to the Fire and Police Pension Association that dates back to the 1970s. Not only will this repayment assure the retirement of our first responders, the action will also save the state approximately $26 million in interest payments that, without doubt, can be better spent than making interest payments. Another aspect of the bill that appealed to me was that it increased the state’s “rainy day fund” by 1 percent, or $76 million. Given the obvious

shortage of real snow and rain this winter, another ugly wildfire season will soon be on us. Putting aside more for emergencies is prudent. It wouldn’t be a Long Bill without histrionics and podium-pounding by one or both sides. This year they were provoked by Democrat and Budget Committee member Crisanta Duran and her last-minute amendment to provide college scholarships to illegal immigrants. I will be an emphatic “No!” if this amendment isn’t taken out of the bill before I vote for a last time. With the Colorado economy in a steady, if far from spectacular recovery, it won’t be long before the Legislature will be in the position of being confronted with mandatory taxpayer refunds under TABOR. With only one full session before me before I am term-limited, I urge vigilance by Colorado taxpayers to make sure that legislative chicanery doesn’t deprive them of what is rightfully theirs: the full share their hard-earned TABOR refunds. State Rep. Spencer Swalm serves House District 37, which includes Centennial.

Investors see risk in market rally Hindsight is perfect vision. If investors knew we would be flirting with 15,000 on the Dow in April 2013, perhaps fewer would have panicked in May 2009 when the same market index was at 6,700. The broader market index as measured by the S&P 500 was at 696 then, and as of this writing is nearing 1,600 or a return of 130 percent. ¹ The lesson from this example and any other market decline is that recoveries typically follow declines. The problem always lies in the unknowns — usually when and how much. Therefore, many investors make long-term decisions based on shortterm information. Two conflicting emotions often dictate how we behave with our money: fear or greed. During the Great Recession, fear was the common denominator for most people tracking their retirement or college funds. Lately, greed has started to take over as more folks are wishing they had invested more and could be looking at over 100 percent returns by now. There are several risk factors that continue to affect this recovery, and many people remain fearful despite the large returns. One obvious problem is that the economic growth has been so slow, hampered by unemployment and a stagnant housing market, that the recovery itself was difficult to recognize until after it occurred. The continued trajectory, according to the Federal Reserve Board

minutes from early April, is that the slow growth is here to stay. No one is predicting any stellar Gross Domestic Product (GDP) bursts in the near future. Slow growth transcends into another problem: Low interest rates. The low interest rate environment, designed to loosen the money supply, makes it difficult for retirees to get much yield on their fixed income investments. Since bond values increase when interest rates decline, the outlook for bond price appreciation is actually negative. Therefore it does not make economic sense to purchase bonds at record high prices for paltry returns. Another longer-term risk to be aware of is the potential for inflation creeping back into the economy. There is significant potential that the consumer will experience higher costs on such staples as food, housing and energy, long before their salary will increase to compensate. Wages are held down as a result of high unemployment; however, food and energy costs are rising. This phenomenon of inflation before growth is very difficult to manage as an investor or a consumer.

The added volatility in the marketplace is a result of the above three major risks. The whipsaw attitude of when to add growth investments to the portfolio or when to be defensive has many investors’ heads spinning. In stock market terms, this is called risk-on or risk-off. Those adding risk because they are now fearful of missing out (greed) are pushing stock prices higher. Those reducing risk by being defensive either due to age or income needs are sustaining a bond market that otherwise would naturally be declining. These conflicting attitudes may actually create opportunity. Investors would be wise to revisit their long-term strategy with their advisor. Confirm you are diversified in the areas where you feel comfortable taking risk and that your time frame is appropriate for the investments you are holding.

All about aeriﬁcation By Tony Koski, CSU Extension Turf Specialist

A few thoughts on lawn aerification (core cultivation) from now through the fall. If lawns aren’t being regularly watered (as is the case in many communities), the lawns will likely be so hard that aerification will not be terribly effective. That is, plugs will not likely be pulled from such hard lawns without the benefit of a good soaking rain or a couple of days of intensive irrigation. Lawns that are stressed due to some of the more extreme watering restrictions will not likely benefit from fall aerification (or earlier “beat the fall rush” aerification being promoted by some companies right now). These stressed lawns may actually suffer additional stress (traffic stress from the equipment, increased drying because of open holes). Aerification holes will promote drying of the soil if they do not heal over quick-

ly. On actively growing, regularly watered lawns the holes heal quickly. On stressed, infrequently irrigated lawns the holes will stay open longer and thus promote drying of the soil — something we don’t need at this point. Plus, drought stressed and (especially) non irrigated lawns will not produce much in the way of new roots this fall — even if they are aerified. In fact, they may produce more roots if left undisturbed (not aerified) than if they are aerified. Those lawns that are being watered enough to get good penetration/plug pulling would probably benefit because they are growing “normally” (new roots will form, holes will heal over). So, lawns that do not appear to be under stress and are irrigated regularly enough to allow effective pulling of cores can benefit from fall aerification. Where watering restrictions have resulted in stressed lawns and hard soil, aerification may not be effective and may actually cause more harm than good.

How to keep your land pest-free By StatePoint

Spending time outdoors can recharge the soul and bring the family together. In your own backyard you can fi nd beauty, enjoyment and a place to connect with nature — so long as you make sure to maintain all those beautiful trees and plants. Whether you have a garden, woodlands or natural landscaping on your property, you’ll want to keep your land healthy and free of unwanted pests. And experts say that woodlands need special attention. “Although trees look strong, woodland ecosystems are particularly vulnerable to natural and man-made dangers that can gradually reduce the health and beauty of your woods,” says Mike Burns, forester and program resource manager with the American Forest Foundation. A U.S. Forest Service assessment released last December predicts that as many as 34 million acres of forest land could be lost in the United States during the next tered50 years, and that all regions in the Unitssed,ed States will experience increased stress willfrom natural disasters and pest infestayingtions. ed at Luckily, there are steps landowners can d (es-take to help keep trees and woodlands safe pro-from pests: this • Keep an eye out for changes.

area. Contact your state forestry agency or state department of natural resources to find out what’s bugging your area. • Monitor for pests and signs of disease every month or two. Check trees on the trunk, limbs, twigs, under peeling bark and leaves — the most likely places to find injuries. Keep your eye open for things that look out of the ordinary. • Online resources can help you become a better steward of your land. If you own some woodlands, consider signing up for the My Land Plan resource, launched by the American Forest Foundation. My Land Plan can help you connect with upto-date information about pest threats, map your land’s boundaries and record changes over time, all at www.MyLandPlan.org. You can explore the website’s newly expanded invasive pest and pathogen section and locate professional services available for your needs. • If you suspect an outbreak, collect samples of tree damage and any associated pests to accurately identify the problem, which may have more than one cause. Take pictures and notes on your trees’ symptoms. Often pictures are enough for an expert to identify the problem and help you figure out what to do next. Next steps can be identified by your state forestry agency or department of natural resources. • If you discover an insect that you suspect might be a danger to your trees, seal it in a container and store it in the freezer until you can deliver it to a proper authority.

Centennial City Council voted to annex five parcels of land adjoining the Tuscany and Siena subdivisions in unincorporated Arapahoe County. The move creates an enclave and gives the city the right, should it chose, to annex the subdivisions as well, in three years. Courtesy image

who do not want to be part of the city. We just want to preserve that option.” But for Noon, the bottom line is not what the residents of Siena and Tuscany want, but what the citizens of Centennial want. “I swore an oath to represent the interests of the citizens of Centennial,” Noon explained. “I have listened to everything

you’ve said tonight and have written, but it seems that everyone here tonight has come here from outside the city of Centennial — I have not heard from a single resident or business from Centennial that has said I should vote no.” The annexation of the five parcels, including The Farm, passed with a vote of 6-2, with Council Members Rebecca McClellan and Sue Bosier voting no and Council Member Ron Weidmann abstaining. Noon thanked residents for attending, saying, “I know this didn’t go the

way you hoped and I hope you understand the position that some of us are in. This was certainly not an easy decision for any of us to make.” “Right I want you to think about something,” said Gay, who lives in the Tuscany development. “There are about 1,400 homes out there; each home has about two-three people, and that’s approximately 4,000 to 5,000 people, of which about 3,000 of them are gonna vote, and your tickin’ them off right now as we speak. Do you really want 3,000 unhappy citizens as part of your city someday?”

REAL ESTATE CAREERS MARKETPLACE SERVICE DIRECTORY

REAL ESTATE AGENT SPOTLIGHT OF THE WEEK What is the most challenging part of what you do? What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a Steve Sides house? Keeping up with the search for new opportunities. Agent

What do you most enjoy doing when you’re not working? I enjoy the outdoors and music; love to fish and play guitar – not at the same time.

Keller Williams Realty Success Phone: 720-241-5215 Mobile: 303-525-9270 Office: 303-985-1901 sides.yourkwagent.com www.rockymtnhomes.net Where were you born? Born in Denver Colorado around the time dirt was invented

What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house? The best tip I can give someone selling is to hire me. What I mean by that is that you need someone with a lot of knowledge and the ability to continue to learn. These two things create win / win for Sellers. The process is complicated and changing. I work at helping clients reach their goal. If they do then I win as well.

How long have you lived in the area? A REALLY long time – since birth What do you like most about it? I love the mountains and the outdoor opportunities. How long have you worked in Real Estate? 20 years What is your specialty and what does that mean for the people you work with? Foreclosures have always been a part of my business. Everything from helping people involved in the process to selling bank owned properties. We have done 100’s of properties and learned a lot.

It’s the same as for sellers except for one additional item. Lending has become very complex. Finding the right lender for your SPECIFIC case is essential. The pitfalls have grown over the past few years. Working with an agent and a loan originator that know how to get through it all is the biggest and the most important part of the process. What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate? The most unusual and funniest cannot be mentioned here but I will say this… when you deal with people and professional services you see and hear lots of weird stuff. Usually what appears to be unusual is the expectations of people on all sides of a transaction. It seems weird but is usually due to lack of understanding and knowledge – sometimes funny and sometimes sad. The key is to stay ready to bring perspectives to together.

WE BELIEVE ENERGY STAR IS JUST A STARTING POINT.

WE ARE NEW TOWN BUILDERS. R

We’re inspired by classic Colorado architecture and passionate about cra smanship. Yet we geek out on the latest technology and sustainable building techniques. The thicker walls in our New Town Builders’ high performance homes allow for 60% more money-saving insula on than in a conven onal home, and our roof is 6 inches higher than a typical home, so we can get 2 ½ mes MORE insula on in the a c. This reduces heat loss, and more importantly, reduces your energy bill! Talk to us about building your (surprisingly aﬀordable) energy-eﬃcient new home.

: With housing at skyhigh affordability are lenders still lending? Can I get a loan with the new stricter lending standards that are out there today? Are there low down payment programs still available? : You are correct that lending standards have changed dramatically in the last few years as banks and lenders have gone from very loose standards, particularly on subprime loans in the 2000s, to stricter standards today. Verification of ability to repay and assets for downpayment (and sometimes reserves), are now required as the stated income/ stated asset or no income/no asset loans no longer exist. Waiting periods after bank-

ruptcies, loan modifications, short sales, and foreclosures have all been extended – but loans are still available, even for people that have had those credit blemishes. As for low down payment programs, many counties, as well as CHAFA, offer down payment assistance programs, although most of those come with income or asset qualifiers. Additionally, grant programs with income qualifiers reduce down payment requirements to around $1000. The VA loan program, for veterans, offers a no downpayment program, and VA fees can be waived for those with disabilities. FHA offers a program with only 3.5 percent of the purchase price as a downpayment. The USDA program also offers a zero down program in certain rural areas. Finally, conventional loans are available with as little as 5 percent down. If you’re looking to purchase or refinance, seek out an experienced, trustworthy, financially savvy lender, that you can meet face to face,

who has access to the full spectrum of loan and grant programs. Then work with them to select the proper loan and grant programs and have them customize them to best suit your needs. For more information on how you can purchase or refinance a home, please

contact our lending expert, Randy Spierings, CPA (over 30 years), NMLS #217152, branch manager for Primary Residential Mortgage, Inc., a local lender you can trust, at 303-256-5748 or rspierings@primeres.com. www. BestColoradoMortgages. com Regulated by the Divi-

Presidential project

Want to show former President Jimmy Carter and first lady Rosalynn Carter what you would do if you had a hammer? Would you hammer in the morning? Hammer in the evening? All over this land? A few lucky folks will be chosen to work alongside the Carters during the 2013 Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project for Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver from Oct. 6 through 11. This is the 30th anniversary of the presidential Habitat for Humanity event, and Denver is one of three cities in the U.S. getting the special project. Volunteers will build 11 new townhomes and repair up to 15 existing homes in Denver’s Globeville neighborhood. For more information, visit www.habitatmetrodenver.org.

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “We believe that we, all of us, need to seek a new approach to the environment,” says internationally recognized Dutch artist Claudy Jongstra, whose works are on display at Englewood’s Museum of Outdoor Arts. Colorful tapestries hanging in the second floor atrium at Englewood’s Civic Center serve as an introduction to the exceptional collection displayed inside the Museum of Outdoor Arts’ indoor gallery. Step inside gallery doors and one is surrounded with fragrance, texture and intense color. Jongstra has worked with architects and curators throughout Europe and the U.S., spreading her message of sustainability, of connecting with nature — and beautifying large public spaces, as well as homes, restaurants and other environments. The new Barnes Collection in Philadelphia, the Fries Museum in the Netherlands, The Victoria and Albert Museum in London, Queen Mary University in London and the Lincoln Center for Performing Arts in New York are but a few of the institutions where her large felt panels are installed. Jongstra has a farm in the northern Netherlands where she keeps 150 sheep — 17th-century Drenthe Heath heritage animals with long shaggy coats — which supply the wool. A large garden grows traditional dye plants providing colors such as indigo, madder, St. John’s Wort, rhubarb, larkspur and weld. She keeps bees to pollinate her flowers and dyes wool in hues reminiscent of 17thcentury Dutch Masters paintings. Nothing is wasted as she and members of her atlier (studio) create tapestries, wall coverings and other products to soften the environments where people work and live. Atlier associates Marleen Engebersen and Maeve van Klaveren, who work in Amsterdam, are with Jongstra to install the exhibit. Additional supplies are included in her work, such as silk, linen, merino wool, alpaca — all of them add textures to the work on display at MOA through July 13. In the gallery are a variety of panels and tapestries, skeins and bundles of yarn, samples of dried dye plants. A labyrinth of dried yellow chamomile flowers rests just to the right of the entrance beneath loops of dyed yarn samples.

Wende Curtis, owner of Comedy Works in LoDo and south in the Landmark development, is peddling a six-minute “sizzle reel” for a reality TV series about her crazy Comedy Works world. “The working title is called `Comedy Works’,” said Curtis, who wouldn’t divulge where or to whom she’s pitching the pilot project. “The principal characters are me, Lucy (her four-legged child), Jeff, our GM of the south club, and an assistant who is a sexy little 20-something who wants to break into comedy. “There are a few more (characters) slated to be introduced early on, but there’s only so much to get across in six minutes! We’ve gotten some strong feedback from the business; now let’s see if we can sell it.” Curtis said her motivation for exploring the reality TV possibilities was primarily financial. “Money inspired me ... to get out from underneath my debt faster!” she said.

Makes sense

Internationally known Dutch textile artist Claudy Jongstra prides herself on creations made with sustainable materials, such as this panel made of silk organza decorated with wool from her own sheep. if you go The Claudy Jongstra exhibit will be at the Museum of Outdoor Arts indoor gallery on the second level of the Englewood Civic Center through July 13. It is located at 1000 Englewood Parkway. Hours: 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Tuesdays through Thursdays; 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Fridays; 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturdays. Admission is free. 303-806-0444. A countertop display illustrates the felting process, where wools are layered, then soaked and compressed. Ahead to the left are a series of sheer silk organza panels with wool felted onto them

in a random design, like little clouds floating. Similar sheer panels at the end of the gallery in front of the windows are further enhanced with colored embroidery. A second labyrinth form on the floor is overlaid with carded silk, which has a silvery sheen. Wall panels to the left are covered in a felted linen and were made in Colorado with fabric shipped from the Netherlands. A large tapestry with a series of red circles leads a visitor into the smaller gallery space, which holds more and varied tapestries.

When the creative team behind the musical interpretation of Jane Austen’s classic novel “Sense & Sensibility” first presented their idea to Tony-nominated director Marcia Milgrom Dodge, she thought they were kidding. How could Austen’s iconic 1811 work of romantic fiction possibly translate into a piece for musical theater? But the team convinced Milgrom Dodge, who fell in love with the formidable project. The result made its world premiere April 5 in Denver Center’s Stage Theatre. The result is a whimsical romp through the lives and loves of the Dashwood sisters, who go from riches to rags after the death of their father. The sisters and their mother move to Barton Cottage in Devonshire, near the home of her cousin, Sir John Middleton. It’s at Barton where a series of tangled romances finally straighten themselves out. The exciting production values include sets that slide on and off stage or emerge from below or descend into trap doors. “Sense & Sensibility the Musical” runs through May 26. Tickets: 303-893-4100 or www.denvercenter.org.

Steak escape

The Travel Channel recently aired an episode of the series “Food Paradise” with a third “Steak Paradise” edition, which included a stop at Vesta Dipping Grill, 1822 Blake St. Personally, when I think Denver steak house, Vesta doesn’t come to top of mind, but the “Food Paradise” peeps “steaked” a claim to Vesta. In the piece, diners rave about Vesta’s beef steak dishes - including the signature surf and turf, which is a flatiron steak with Manila clams - as well as waxing poetic about Vesta’s venison filet. Former executive chef Matt Selby (who now runs the kitchen at Corner House), talks about the veracity of

Those of you who’ve been around the Denver dining scene since the 1990s might remember Michael’s, a former fine dining spot at 2710 E. Third Ave. that lasted until 2000 when chef/owner Michael Shiell sold the place and relocated to The Big Apple. After a chef stint there, he headed to the other coast as a restaurant consultant in California. But he longed to get back to his chef self, and to again own his own restaurant. Shiell got his wish when Lime owners Curt Sims and Pam Savage decided to leave Larimer Square and set up shop in the Denver Pavilions. Shiell leased the below-ground level space in a Larimer Square courtyard (near Bistro Vendome), and will open Milk & Honey Bar Kitchen (he hopes) in August. “We chose the old Lime spot because ... well ... it’s Larimer Square, and I always love those tucked-away little gems personally when I go out,” Shiell said. He was particularly attracted to the large below-ground patio, which he plans to decorate with

Eagles extend lacrosse win streak Heritage boys team raises record to 5-4 By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The Heritage High School lacrosse team established a winning record for the first time this season on April 10 when they bested Littleton 14-2. “We got off to a slow start. One of our players got badly hurt early in the first game and it took our team a while to rebound,” Eagles coach Brandt Hodgson said before the Littleton game. “We have gotten it together and have won four in a row coming into today’s game.” With the Littleton game, the schedule keeps the Eagles busy. Heritage played George Washington on April 13 and were at home April 19 against Colorado Academy. Heritage then will have a home game in Littleton Stadium April 22 against Smoky Hill. The coach said the Eagles are strong all across the board. He is using a regular rotation of two lines of midfielders and making spot substitutions from the third midfield line. He said the defense is playing well, with junior Michael Oldenberg in goal for the Eagles this season. “Michael played junior varsity goalie last year and is doing a good job for us this season,” Hodgson said. The Eagles have about 30 players on junior varsity and 30 on varsity this season. The coach said he feels the growing interest in lacrosse at Heritage is because it is a fun sport to play and the youth program does a good job getting athletes wanting to play lacrosse in the spring. Across the field, Littleton coach Brad Todd guided his team through warm-ups. “We graduated a lot of players from last year’s team, so we have a lot of young guys coming up from the junior varsity to fill starting roles,” he said. “This is definitely a different look from

Heritage defender Nicholas Lepore (12) battled with Littleton’s John Senior for a loose ball during the April 10 lacrosse game. Heritage won the battle and the game, 14-2. There is growing interest in lacrosse at Heritage. Photo by Tom Munds the 2012 team, when we were 9-7 and made the playoffs.” The coach said the team’s strength is the ball-handling skills of the players on attack and the depth at midfield, which makes it possible for Todd to use a three-line rotation. “A lot of our defensive starters are new to varsity, so we changed up the schemes a bit,” Todd said. “Our kids are adjusting to the new defensive alignment and we are steadily improving.”

He said the April 10 game against Heritage is always special because it is against a rival as well a game that counts in the league standings. Things don’t get any easier for Littleton after the Heritage game, On April 12 they played Colorado Academy and April 17, they were on the road against Kent Denver, a team tied for the league lead. The Lions return home April 19 against Rangeview in a 4:30 p.m. game in Littleton Stadium. The Eagles took control early in the April

10 game against the Lions. Heritage scored the first five goals and the score never got any closer as the Eagles won, 14-2. Heritage took 27 shots on goal. Joshua Davis had two goals and an assist, Matthew Rosenbaugh had two goals as nine players put the ball in the net for the Eagles. Heritage goalie Michel Oldenberg faced 17 shots on goal and made eight saves. Littleton got goals from Riley Herges and Joe Timms.

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The Warriors boys swim team saw their winning streak snapped in an April 13 loss of the varsity portion of a dual match with Lewis-Palmer, 100-86. “Through the years, Arapahoe has been competitive,” Michael Richmond, 18-year head coach, said before the Lewis-Palmer meet. “Our best finish was in 2006, when we finished second at state. That year, we won the swimming, but the difference was the points Regis scored in diving.” He said this year, team depth is a strength, as is the fact that it is a seniordominated team, which should mean the Warriors will be battling for a top spot in the season’s final standings. The dual match with Lewis-Palmer is the last action before a gap in the schedule, which allows the Warriors to prepare for the home stretch of the season. The next swim meet is April 25 on the road against Smoky Hill, and on April 30 the Warriors are at home against rival Cherry Creek. That is followed by the league meet May 10 and the state meet May 18.

Photo by Tom Munds The coach said the Warriors have 48 swimmers and 12 divers on this year’s roster. He said Arapahoe has talented entries in all individual events, along with strong relay teams.

He noted athletes to watch should include diver Alan Leblang and swimmers Kyle Hentschel, Josh Schechter, Ethan Pfeiffer and Logan Lagesse. Richmond said even with the big roster,

he tries to get everyone into every meet, which is made easier at home meets because the Warriors’ home pool has 10 lanes. The pool size also makes it easier for team practices. The coach said he holds morning practices on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. The practices are in the afternoon on the other days. At practice, the swimmers go through their workouts and, when the pool is cleared, the divers practice. There are no practices on days when there are meets. Before the meet, Richmond said the Warriors would mix up their lineups a bit in the meet with Lewis-Palmer. He said his top diver was at a big meet as his club team wraps up the season. He also said his top swimmers probably won’t swim as many events as they would at a big meet. The Arapahoe-Lewis Palmer meet moved quickly, with a junior varsity heat and a varsity heat for each event. The exception was diving, when all divers competed in the same event. The Rangers showed their individual strength and scored the points to best Arapahoe 100-86 in the varsity competition, but the Warrior depth was reflected as Arapahoe won the junior varsity team scoring, 55-33.

Heritage builds legacy, one brick at a time Entryway project teaches real-world skills By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com According to legend, the eagle represents farsightedness and immortality. The Heritage High School Eagles are demonstrating both by launching an ambitious project that will leave a lasting legacy. In the works are major improvements to the school’s entrance, including tables, landscaping, trees, a plaza and a new walkway. Students have been involved at every step in the planning, putting skills they’ve learned in HHS classes to good use. “Someday I’ll be able to tell my kids that’s what I did to contribute to my community, that’s how I spent my time at Heritage,” said senior Zachary Hecker. He’s been busy engineering the design, illustrating a more inviting place for students to gather. Hecker has studied architecture at Heritage for the last three years, and now his ideas will forever change the face of the school. His design is meant to evoke images of the Colorado tundra, home of the golden eagle, and incorporates a bronze statue of an eagle that the senior class is donating. His teacher, Jason Whitehorn, said Hecker’s talent and professionalism served him well while dealing with contractors and others involved in the planning. “It really does mimic a real-life project,” said Whitehorn. “Just because we can draw it doesn’t mean they can build it.” To make the project come to life, the Parent-Teacher Organization created the Heritage Legacy Project. Alumni, businesses and the community at large are encouraged to buy a brick, engraved with their name, to help pave the more welcoming facade and forever be a part of the school. “What we’re trying to do is have our past, present and future alumni become one,” said PTO president Julie TenEyck, who’s heading up the project. Coincidentally, after the project was underway, some environmental-

‘We wanted this project to be something special, something that will last for generations to come.’ Julie TenEyck, Heritage PTO president science students decided they wanted to enhance the landscaping in front of the school as their senior project. “This started out a PTO-sponsored project, but the kids wanted to help,” said TenEyck. “They have a lot of pride in their school, and they wanted to show it.” Rachel Gershon, Rachel Reisler and twins Alexa and Karly Garster researched xeriscaping and drought-resistant flowers, working with O’Toole’s Garden Center to choose just the right ones. Included are colorful butterfly bushes, tulips and dragon’s blood, perennials that won’t have to be purchased anew each year. “It saves them a bunch of money, and it helps with the water bills,” said Gershon, who noted that in their research, they discovered HHS spent

payments, appointment scheduling and park reservations have helped improve customer service and save time and money, another goal set forth in 2002. “Our Public Works Department has added traffic-signal controls and weather stations, which help traffic flow more smoothly and increase road safety,” said Noon. “And, to facilitate those controls, the city is in the process of laying fiber to better facilitate communication to those high-tech devices.” Principles number 7 and 9 centered on well-maintained city streets and infrastructure. Noon said significant improvements to the transportation network have been made, most prominently the city’s increase in the number of miles it maintains. Through the use of GPS and algorithms, the city has been able to reduce the time it takes to plow snow routes by 40 percent, allowing for 93 additional miles to be plowed during each snowstorm. Another highlight, according to Noon, is the city’s recently acquired public works building and yard off Jordan Road and Eagle Street. “This site will provide a permanent home for trucks, plows, snow and ice materials, while saving our taxpayers money,” she said. “The 6-acre concrete yard alone is worth more than the $2.75 million we paid for the entire site.” Noon noted that 2012 saw the official opening of Centennial Center Park and other open-space projects, each contributing to the city’s sense of identity. The final three principles focused on the citizen’s experience of government. “We have 68 citizens that serve on 10 boards, commissions and advisory groups,” she said. “District meetings have increasingly good attendance and provide a great opportunity for direct sharing of information between council, staff, and citizens.” Noon said the city takes it as a sign of trust that citizens overwhelmingly passed Ballot Measure 2D last November, an exception to the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights that allows Centennial to retain and spend city revenues from all funding sources that currently or will exist. “It appears our vision and our leadership have worked hand in hand,” concluded Noon. “And with accomplishments like these, I hope you agree this is one report card you won’t be afraid to take home.”

Rock Bottom Brewery, J. Alexander’s and REI,” Noon explained. “That rounded out our previous annexation of the surrounding Centennial Promenade Shopping area, further balancing the amount of commercial versus residential property within our borders.” Noon said the city had also been successful with retaining businesses and fostering expansions. Centennial also saw a 24 percent increase in sales tax collection, due to an improving economy, sales tax audits and improved collection of delinquent sales tax. The city was also charged with creating effective city management, keeping government small and using innovation and best methods to keep costs low and quality high. Noon credited the hiring of City Manager John Danielson with helping restructure city government and smartly outsourcing services that were not cost-effective or a strong core competency. Centennial was recognized as Safest City in Colorado for the eighth consecutive year, and Noon credited work done by the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office, which is the city’s public safety contractor, as well as the Cunningham Fire District, South Metro Fire Rescue Authority and the Littleton Fire Department. Changes in the city’s Land Development Code have emphasized practicality, clarity and a focus on reinvesting in current city assets. “Interestingly, we already have comworkmercial applicants petitioning to be unandder the new LDC zoning prior to the total -cut-implementation being completed,” she undssaid. “Businesses appreciate the clear pad sys-rameters and efficiencies of the LDC, and enterresidents are ensured their interests are oups,protected.” s. Even without large development projo beects such as the new 42-acres Jones Busithatness District, Noon noted that more than said15,000 permits were issued last year, a sign that businesses and residents are reinvesthysi-ing in the community. out, Increased connectivity including online dents • mazhing ome chil•
