New COVID-19 restrictions will prohibit indoor dining, personal gatherings

Colorado snowpack tops 140% in good year

Tiny home village a vision for a ordable housing group

Plans for 10 units for young adults depends on funding, local approvals

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If Ashley Dalzell has her way, the vacant lot next to her Access Housing o ce in Commerce City will become a tiny home campus, o ering transitional housing for young adults.

Dalzell, executive director for Access Housing, is negotiating to use a plot of land in Commerce City to build tiny homes and expand transitional housing services for families and people under the age of 25, emancipated high school students and young people that have aged out of the foster care system.

Dalzell said she has a grant from Adams County for the development of a traditional eight-unit a ordable housing development. She’d prefer to do something di erent, where the tenants have a bit more privacy.

Colorado is awash in white this spring, with statewide snowpack topping 140% of average this week, well above the reading a year ago, when it stood at just 97% of normal.

“Conditions in the American West are way better than they were last year at this time,” state climatologist Russ Schumacher said at a recent joint meeting of the Water Availability Task Force and the Governor’s Flood Task Force. “In Colorado we went from drought covering most of the state to most of the state being out of drought.”

A drought considered to be the worst in at least 1,200 years has devastated water supplies across the West. While no one is suggesting the dry spell is over, Colorado water ofcials said 2023 will likely allow for a signi cant recovery in reservoirs and soil moisture.

Adams County’s 14-day test positivity rate was 15.9 percent, as of Nov. 17, according to Tri-County Health Department. Brighton and Commerce City’s test positivity rates were both higher than 13 percent. Forty- ve people in Brighton and 29 in Commerce City have died from COVID-19 related health issues. To limit the spread of COVID-19, at least 15 counties moved to tighter restrictions that prohibits indoor and personal gatherings.

As Denver metro counties continue to inch closer to local stay-at-home orders under Colorado’s system of coronavirusrelated restrictions, the state announced a new level of rules that prohibits indoor dining and personal gatherings — a change that applies to the majority of the Denver metro area and many counties in other regions.

e outlook for the seven-state Colorado River Basin has improved dramatically as well, with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, in its March 15 report, showing that Lake Powell is likely to see some 10.44 million acre-feet of new water supply by the end of September, or in ows at 109% average.

Dalzell said she knows it’s a di erent concept and is excited to work with the city planners and commissioners to bene t a wide variety of individuals and young people that need their assistance with housing –starting with Commerce City.

“We are having preliminary conversations, with the focus on purchasing this piece of property in Commerce City, and also looking at a wide variety of property in Adams County,” she said.

She can’t say when the project will come to fruition, but she’s hopeful.

“As of March, we have come to somewhat of an agreement with current landowners,” she said. “So we’ll see if this probability is more of a reality here in Commerce City jurisdiction for unhoused residents.”

Dalzell and her team have purchased a prototype tiny home to demonstrate the project to planning o cials. It’s currently located at her o ce near 70th and Colorado Boulevard in Commerce City.

“ ese tiny houses have plumbing and bathroom inside the unit. So, launching a tiny home village is another layer of complexity,” Dalzell.

Transitional Housing

families daily, and our o ce is next to the shelter,” she said. “Our existing shelter has eight units, each with a two-bedroom apartment with its own bathroom, kitchen, and living room area.”

Dalzell said they prefer to manage smaller housing projects because it lets them have a single case manager for eight families. She hopes to use that vision for the tiny home village, creating a small neighborhood setting.

“Sometimes they don’t have the answers to our questions but they invite us to the table to talk,” she said. “So far, they support Access Housing’s vision with the village concept.”

Struggling with unknowns

Dalzell said many municipalities struggle with the unknowns regarding a village of tiny homes.

Dalzell said Commerce City has asked questions about potential zoning for the tiny home village and about the building details – whether the development should be zoned as an RV or a mobile home park, for example.   e city needs clari cation,

Report charts course for mitigating wildfire risks

Tribal partnerships are seen as key to e ort

BY ERIC GALATAS PUBLIC NEWS SERVICE

As wild re seasons in Colorado and across the American West become longer, less predictable and increasingly destructive, a new report aims to provide an equitable roadmap for protecting communities, watersheds and wildlife.

Rob Addington, Colorado forest program director for e Nature Conservancy, said engagement with tribal nations, who have been successful stewards of lands for thousands of years, will be critical to address the scale of the challenge.

“Developing tribal partnerships and really looking to tribal knowledge, ecological knowledge that many of the tribes hold from their centuries in many cases of working with the land, working with re,” Addington outlined.

Addington pointed out the roadmap represents a paradigm shift in modern forest and wild re management. After decades of re prevention strategies, for example, experts said prescribed burns will be necessary to thin fuel supplies across thousands of acres of dry western lands. e report also called for advanced computer modeling and unmanned drones to improve early detection, help battle res more effectively, and to reseed and restore scarred forests.

e roadmap, created by e

Aspen Institute and e Nature Conservancy, compiled input from more than 250 experts in forest and re management, federal, state, local, and Tribal Nation authorities, and the private sector, including the forest products and insurance industries.

Addington noted many of the report’s recommendations are shovel-ready, due to recent public investments such as the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the In ation Reduction Act.

“But what we need in parallel to

of policy recommendations,” Addington urged. “To really make best use of that funding, and have it hit the ground in the most e cient and e ective way that we can.”
