Teachers zero in on ‘world-class’ targets 160 educators help develop system to enhance learning

Marijuana continues on Page 10

CCM claims 95 awards

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The phrase “world-class education” can be difficult to put into tangible terms. Its definition centers on a method of instruction designed to meet a technologycentric, rapidly changing and increasingly global economy. Imagine then, the daunting task given to the 169 Douglas County teachers recently tasked with defining their own world-class education targets. The teachers spent four Saturdays establishing the standards they and their peers will aspire to meet, and upon which their pay will be partially based. The world-class targets include 12 phrases, among them “sustainable learning,” “backward planning,” “21st-century

WORLD-CLASS EDUCATION TARGETS

Castle Rock Town Council took the final step to ban commercial marijuana operations and at the same time respect private consumption. Councilmembers on Feb. 19 voted unanimously to prohibit all commercial marijuana activities in town limits, a localcontrol provision of Amendment 64. The town also recognized the amendment provision that gives adults the right to grow, possess and consume marijuana. Town council gave final approval to decriminalize personal use and possession of up to an ounce of marijuana for people who are 21 years and older. Adults also retain the right to grow up to six marijuana plants for personal use, a provision now recognized in town code. Amendment 64 does nothing for anyone younger than 21 years old. Law enforcement agencies can issue citations for cultivation, possession and consumption by anyone below the age limit, according to Town Attorney Bob Slentz.

Douglas County School District teachers, including Robin Murray, Nancy Spreigl, Katie Jones and Karin Stanforth, discuss the world-class targets during a recent Saturday work session. Courtesy photo skills” and “student engagement.” Teachers, who were paid for their outside-the-classroom time, helped flesh out and bring life to those terms. “It was hard work,” said Pine Grove Elementary School teacher Kathy Lucas, “hard in the sense we were doing something out of our comfort zone.” The targets are part of the district’s world-class education curriculum, which also includes a pay-for-performance system in which teachers are paid based on their effectiveness. It’s a shift away from pay based on experience levels and extended education. And while it’s similar to a new state-level system, DCSD believes its evaluation is more rigorous and, ultimately, will produce better-prepared students. The ratings range from “ineffective” to “highly effective,” and are outlined in a teacher evaluation system called Continu-

ous Improvement for Teacher Effectiveness, or CITE. Teachers evaluate themselves, as do supervisors, according to CITE guidelines. The 12 world-class targets go a step beyond CITE. “If you attained the highly-effective rating at the end of any year, you can then go and earn extra incentive for hitting some of those world-class education targets,” said Lucas, who is in her 20th year of teaching. It’s confusing in the best of times, but even more so because the Douglas County School District is on a fast track to make over its educational standards. “This year is probably the biggest change,” Lucas said. “I think it’s because there are so many things rolling out new at the same time. It’s change, and it’s a little scary.

February 28, 2013

Resolution is brief break from brawling On the heels of a contentious week in the General Assembly that involved some heavy-duty debate on — you guessed it — gun-control issues, there came a moment where even the hardest of the hard-nosed legislators shared some ... um, love? No, really. It was straight out of a Disney movie. The only missing was an Elton John soundtrack. “We had been fighting all week and we came together,” said Rep. Tracy KraftTharp, D-Arvada. “Even when I left the floor I still was in tears.” Kraft-Tharp was referring to her fellow legislators’ gushing support of a resolution that she sponsored in the House of Representatives, which proclaimed Feb. 20 as Awareness Day for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities. The resolution recognized persons with developmental disabilities, as well as those who provide services to members of that community. “It was a moment for us to recognize the courage of people with these disabilities,” Kraft-Tharp said. The resolution proved to be a tearjerker for a few House members, some of whom shared personal accounts of how disabled persons have had positive impacts on their lives. Rep. Lois Landgraf said her 40-year-old son has been developmentally challenged since he suffered a brain injury at the age of 17. “From a grateful mother, thank you,” the teary-eyed Fountain Republican told Kraft-Tharp.

But perhaps the most touching moment came when Rep. Jim Wilson, R-Salida, choked back tears as he recalled spending time with a young, mentally disabled girl named Lisa, while he worked in a “hayhauling” business as a young man. “Every time she saw me, she’d come up to me and say, `I love you, Jim Wilson,’” he said. “And it irritated the heck out of me because that’s the way it was supposed to be when you’re a macho guy.” Wilson said that the type of “unconditional love” he received from Lisa “needs to be in this chamber, in this state,” and that, in a sense, people with developmental disabilities are “a gift from God.” “They teach us what we forget when we get older and become jaded,” Wilson said. It’s not every day when all lawmakers agree on … well, anything. So it was refreshing to see the two sides take a break from the Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robot-like action that’s been going on lately - albeit, temporarily.

An idea to pedal

By the way, Sen. Andy Kerr co-spon-

sored the resolution that honored members of the developmentally disabled community. Perhaps he came up with the idea while he was on one of his many bike rides to the Capitol. The Lakewood Democrat has set a personal goal to ride his specialized, Roubaix brand road bike to work, for at least half of the days of this legislative session. Kerr has been using Twitter to provide updates on his efforts. “It’s a good way to put pressure on myself,” Kerr said. “And it’s a good way to get the word out that it’s a viable and healthy way to get to your job.” Now, I walk several blocks from my place to the Capitol every day. But that effort seems puny in comparison to a guy who rides his bike all the way from Lakewood. With all these marathon-like legislative sessions going on in the Capitol these days — and all the free food being carted in on a daily basis — it’s no wonder that lawmakers like Kerr grab hold of every exercise opportunity that they can.

Quote of the week

“I’m not Akin, man.” — Rep. Joe Salazar, D-Thornton, Feb. 19. It was a rough week for Joe Salazar. The freshman Democrat found himself embroiled in a controversy — one that garnered national attention, especially in conservative media outlets — over a rape comment that he made during a recent floor debate on a bill that seeks to ban concealed weapons from being carried on college campuses.

Republicans have pounced on the comment, likening it to failed Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin’s infamous interview from last year, where he said that women who are victims of “legitimate rape” don’t get pregnant. Salazar has since apologized for his comments, and has said that Republicans are playing politics with his unfortunate comment, as Colorado Community Media reported in a previous story. I recently took part in an interview about the Salazar controversy with Colorado Public Radio’s Bente Birkeland, and the Denver Post’s Lynn Bartels. You can find that conversation at www.kunc.org/ post/capitol-conversation-rape-commententers-colorado-gun-debate

Tweet of the week

From Rep. Polly Lawrence, R-Littleton: “Been around horse**** all week, I needed some gun powder to balance it out.” Lawrence posted a picture with her tweet that showed her holding a gun on what looks to be a shooting range. Now, the question is: Was she literally referring to being around manure all week, or was she opining on some of the stuff being said during debates of the gun bills? I’ll just leave that one up to your imagination. Vic Vela is the legislative reporter for Colorado Community Media. He can be reached at vvela@ourcoloradonews.com.

Colorado started the year at an average of $2.99 per gallon, 50 cents less than the national average. But after dropping to $2.85 in midJanuary, prices were up to $3.58 per gallon as of Feb. 22. The spike brought Colorado within 20 cents of the national average, but only five states — Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming — currently have less expensive gas prices. In the south metro area, prices are about 3 cents lower than the state average, but the range varies from $3.35 at the Every Day Gas Station in Parker on the low end to $3.80 at the Town Center Drive 7-Eleven in Highlands Ranch. Prices all over the state have been going up every day since they bottomed out in mid-January. “Sure, I’ve noticed, but what can you do?” asked Jorge Markoss of Castle Rock after pumping over $61 of premium gasoline into his wife’s vehicle at a clip of $3.86 per gallon at the Conoco at Founders Parkway and I-25. “It has been higher in the past.” Markoss is right too, it has been higher, but the state average — which

Council readies for land acquisitions

Owners can expect offers for North Meadows ble at Extension right-of-way By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com Residents along the North Meadows Extension will soon receive offer letters from Castle Rock as the town seeks a right-ofway for the road. Town council on Feb. 19 gave final approval to use eminent domain for the first phase of the project. Approval was on emergency adoption to make it effective immediately and opened the door for the town to buy property easements, according to a staff report from Bob Slentz, town attorney. The legal process required to get easements for a road project is an arduous task that typically takes month of preparation, Slentz said. With the council’s approval of eminent domain, real negotiations can begin, he said. “This is making a lot of people’s lives miserable at town hall, in terms of getting the right-of-way done,” Slentz said. “It takes a lot of effort and coordination to get it right, with zero margin for error.” The first phase of the project will extend North Meadows Drive east of Castle View High School to U.S. Highway 85/Santa Fe Drive. The largest property owners in the first phase are the Douglas County School District and the Castle Rock Development Co., developer of The Meadows, said Bob Goebel, public works director. Others are private homeowners who will be impacted by the construction of noise walls along the road, Goebel said. In most

Source: crgov.com cases, the noise walls will replace cedar fences already in place, he said. The school district is working with the town to dedicate its property to the project, Goebel said. The town is working on a revision to the Castle Rock Development Co. development agreement to convey the necessary easements, he said. Dozens of homeowners will receive a notice of intent and offer letters from the town, Slentz said. If the town believes the value of the acquisition exceeds $5,000, the homeowner is entitled to a third-party appraisal, at the town’s expense, he said. If negotiations fail, the town would file a petition for condemnation, which requires a legal hearing and trial to agree on property value, Slentz said. Officials don’t expect to use condemnation for the first phase of the project, Goebel said. He anticipates a more time-consuming process during the second phase of the project, east of Santa Fe Drive. “That is most complex structure on the project,” he said. “There will be a large bridge over Plum Creek, over the railroad tracks and a new interchange at U.S. (Highway) 85. It will be a big elevated structure. We’re dealing with several properties.” Councilmembers gave final approval to dedicate a portion of the town’s sales and use taxes to pay for a $20 million bond issuance to help pay for the project. Construction is expected to begin in April.

Castle Rock resident Jorge Markoss fills up at the Conoco at Founders Parkway and I-25 on Feb. 21. Markoss paid 3.86 a gallon for premium gas, topping $60 on a 16-gallon tank. Gas prices in the greater Denver area have jumped 71 cents per gallon in a month’s time. Photos by Ryan Boldrey peaked at $4.09 in July 2008 — was only $3.10 on Feb. 22, 2012, exactly 48 cents less than it was this year on the same date. Part of the reason for the huge spike, Dreher said, is the earlier-than-usual switch from winter to sum-

mer blends nationwide — which causes some refineries to go offline during the switchover. With spring coming earlier in most parts of the country this year, more states are making the switch earlier, which is driving price hikes more quickly

as opposed to a slower, more gradual climb. Colorado is expected to make the switch to summer blends in mid-March, which will jump prices about 10 cents, but after that gas costs should begin to taper off, she said.

Volunteers make all the difference Highlands Ranch holds 35 percent of families helped By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcolorado news.com Ann Zelenka has made a life of helping others in need. The retired surgical assistant now helps others in a different way. Every Wednesday, going on five years, she’s made the short drive from Highlands Ranch to Castle Rock to give her time to the Douglas/Elbert Task Force. The 69-year-old is one of 152 volunteers the task force relied on to provide over $1 million of assistance last year to needy families in the two counties. “Ninety cents of every dollar that comes in goes back into the operation,” said Joe Roos, director of philanthropy, and one of just 10 part- and full-time staffers with the task force. “If it wasn’t for the volunteers we couldn’t do that. I like to say that this is the greatest love story in Douglas County.” It’s also a pretty good love story for Elbert County, and the reason Elbert resident Diane Patrick — who prices out hundreds of donations for the organization’s thrift store each Wednesday with Zelenka — signed on. “There are just so few services in Elbert County,” Patrick said. “That’s why I chose to volunteer here. The organization helps a lot of people from all over both counties.” The goal of the organization is to meet the immediate needs of residents who are in financial distress and at risk of becoming homeless. The task force uses grant money, proceeds from

Ann Zelenka of Highlands Ranch, left, and Diane Patrick of Elbert County both volunteer every Wednesday with the Douglas/Elbert Task Force. The two women price out more than 100 items for the organization’s thrift store, Treasures, each week. Photos by Ryan Boldrey the thrift store and financial donations to help pay utility bills and rent. More than 85 percent of all clients also take advantage of the task force’s food bank, Roos said, adding that the task force also provides items like hygiene products and pet food that clients can’t purchase with food stamps. In 2012, the task force served 15,684 people in the two counties. More than a third of those who received assistance are residents of Highlands Ranch. “I’d like to see more people from the Highlands Ranch area get involved,” said Kathy D’Amore, vol-

unteer coordinator for the task force. “Ann is the only volunteer I have from Highlands Ranch, yet 35 percent of our clients are coming out of there.” D’Amore said the organization is always looking for more volunteers, and that people can work as little as 8-10 hours per month. She does ask, however, that volunteers make a six-month commitment up front. People can do anything from pricing donation items, to doing data entry or working in the client services area, the food bank, donation intake or helping out in the thrift store. Last year task force vol-

unteers provided 28,482 hours of service - the equivalent of 19 full-time staff. Community service volunteers added an additional 4,138 hours. For more information, visit www.detaskforce.org or call 303-688-1114. The Douglas/Elbert Task Force is located at 1638 Park Street in Castle Rock.

Castle Rock made a mile high move on its regional park, naming a general contractor for the last phase of design. Town council on Feb. 19 hired Turner Construction, responsible for Sports Authority Field at Mile High, from among nine applicants who submitted written proposals. Councilmembers in 2012 approved a budget of $10 million for the 225-acre Philip S. Miller Park in hopes of finding a private partner to help build the park. The park is expected to cost as much as $30 million for the amenities outlined in the town’s master plan, according to the town of Castle Rock. Among the amenities is a 50,000-squarefoot fieldhouse that is expected to cost $9 million. The fieldhouse is designed with indoor synthetic turfs, a play adventure area and swimming pools. Councilmembers readied for 2013 construction of the fieldhouse in late 2012 by issuing $8.9 million in certificates of participation. Turner Construction will help with final design of the park and fieldhouse with pre-construction services that include con-

ABOUT PHILIP S. MILLER PARK 225-acre regional park along Plum Creek Parkway south of The Meadows. Estimated cost: $30 million Proposed amenities include: A fieldhouse, outdoor adventure play area, athletic fields, amphitheater, water feature and trails. structability reviews, price estimates, identifying efficient engineering opportunities and risk mitigation. The company was selected for the preconstruction phase with a winning bid of $44,700. Bids ran as high as $68,317, according to the staff report from Jeff Smullen, superintendent of park planning and construction. The Philip S. Miller Park project requires a second bid at the construction phase to agree on a guaranteed maximum price. The first look at that bid is expected by April, Smullen said. Other projects on Turner Construction’s resume are the CU Folsom Field expansion, Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, Centennial Center Park, Erie Community Park, Glendale Infinity Park South and the Glendale Sports Center. “If this passes we expect whatever project we see there to surpass whatever is in Centennial or Aurora,” said Mayor Paul Donahue.

WISE water remains unsettled Town taking second look at rate structure By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com Castle Rock continued its commitment to Denver and Aurora, with a caveat — the town wants a second look at the way the water providers set their rates. Castle Rock’s utilities department on Feb. 19 updated councilmembers on the Water and Supply Infrastructure and Supply Efficiency agreement for the purchase of water from Denver and Aurora. The agree-

ment is a partnership with 10 members of the South Metro Water Supply Authority. Castle Rock in January selected WISE as one of two solutions for its long-term water supply. WISE has been on the map since February 2008, when the WISE partnership signed an intergovernmental agreement with Denver Water and Aurora Water. Since the town began its analysis, rate increases from Denver and Aurora prompted Castle Rock to order another rates and fees feasibility study. The rate structure in the WISE agreement is one of the greater considerations, said Heather Beasley, water resources manager. Since 2011, the WISE delivery rate has increased about 20 cents per thousand gal-

lons, Beasley said. Aurora also added a temporary surcharge between 17 and 51 cents per thousand gallons, Beasley reported. “It sounds small, but we could be talking (potentially) millions in increase for our residents,” said Mayor Paul Donahue. “We are concerned about being able to control that rate.” Castle Rock has targeted up to 1,000 acre-feet per year from WISE; one acre-foot contains almost 326,000 gallons of water. “Enough has changed in this WISE water delivery agreement since we did the comparative analysis last year,” Beasley said. “We think it’s prudent to do another rates and fees feasibility study to be sure WISE is

Town OKs representation in search for water Agreement prevents potential conflict

CASTLE ROCK WATER TIMELINE

By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com As Castle Rock narrowed its longterm water purchase, it hired a broker who owns an interest in the water the town is eyeing, but took steps to neutralize any conflict. Councilmembers on Feb. 19 approved a two-year agreement with Stillwater Resources & Investments Inc. to represent Castle Rock as it seeks water north of Denver. Stillwater presented one of two options selected for the town’s long-term water solution, with a proposal to sell up to 3,000 acre-feet from the Box Elder Farms well field in Adams County. In its original application, Stillwater proposed the town pay $7,000 per acre-foot of yield from the well field, or $4.2 million for 600 acre-feet of the expected annual yield. Stillwater also quoted a price of $10 million for the Box Elder well field, according to the analysis by W.W. Wheeler and Associates Inc., a team of water resource engineers that analyzed the proposals presented. Stillwater’s president, Walraven Ke-

With a goal to buffer its non-renewable water supply with a renewable source, Castle Rock in 2011 opened the bidding process for a supply alternative. May 2012 — Council considers four final proposals from potential long-term water providers. October 2012 — Councilmembers elect to go with a hybrid solution, combining two of the four proposals. January 2012 — Council closes the proposal process to focus on solutions from the WISE partnership and Stillwater Resources. February 2012 — Castle Rock signs a brokerage agreement with Stillwater Resources; authorizes a second study of WISE rate structure. tellapper, owns a part interest in the Box Elder asset, a potential conflict the town addressed by removing Stillwater from the equation if the town opts to go with Box Elder. In the Stillwater brokerage agreement, Box Elder assets are excluded from consideration. If Castle Rock purchases Box Elder water, the town will not pay Stillwater a brokerage fee. The Box Elder negotiations will be handled by town attorney Bob Slentz, with the help of a team of water attorneys and engineers who have been researching the Box Elder proposal since Stillwater brought it to the table, said

Heather Beasely, Castle Rock water resources manager. “This isn’t unusual in the industry,” Beasley said. “We anticipated a potential conflict, we saw this coming. We wanted (people) to know we thought about and took care of it before anybody would think it was a conflict.” Through the brokerage agreement, Stillwater will continue to seek available water north of Denver for Castle Rock for an average fee of about 5 percent, depending on the terms of the acquisition, according to Beasley’s staff report. In response to council concerns about any potential disadvantage for Castle Rock in the Box Elder negotiations, Slentz said nothing is set in stone until the deal is signed. “Stillwater is aware of different opportunities in the basin,” Slentz said. “When they believe they have a real deal, that term sheet will be passed by council in some fashion. Council will know, we will not spend a significant amount of money. Even if council rejects the contract later, we are not obligated to compensate Stillwater. Stillwater should be lauded up to this point. Their concept is they get compensated when they get projects and we get value.”

still one of the better sources for the town.” Other factors impacting WISE are negotiations among Western Slope providers, who must sign off to allow Denver and Aurora to sell the water to the WISE partners; targeting the pipeline infrastructure to get the water from Aurora to the south metro service area; and meeting the terms of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit amendment requirements to store the water in Rueter-Hess. “If we can’t get that permit revised, WISE isn’t in force,” Beasley said. The results of the new rates and fees feasibility study is expected in April, when councilmembers receive their next update on the long-term water plan.

Burglary suspects jailed after officer fires shot DC Oakes High School placed on lockdown By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com Castle Rock police have identified the suspects in an alleged home burglary that ended after an officer fired a weapon. Police filed charges against Tshinbanda Kazadi, 23, Alexander Greer, 22, and Andre Greer, 20, for the Feb. 21 incident that resulted in a lockdown at an area high school. The incident began with a report of suspicious activity at a home in Plum Creek. A Castle Rock police officer fired at the suspects’ car while responding to a call about three suspected burglars whose pres-

ence was reported by a neighbor. Police received the report around 1:05 p.m. Feb. 21 at a home in the 500 block of Mango Drive in Plum Creek, said Karen McGrath, Castle Rock spokeswoman. Early reports indicated a neighbor heard a loud noise from a nearby house. The report described three men in black masks near a blue SUV. Officers arrived to find a suspicious vehicle leaving the scene. The driver of the blue Ford Explorer weaved aggressively at the marked patrol car, McGrath said. The officer fired a single shot at the vehicle, prompting the driver to swerve. Road conditions were snowy and the car became disabled on the side of Plum Creek Road. Two suspects fled on foot and were caught by police. The third suspect was apprehended in the Explorer. The suspects are

described as black males. DC Oakes High School was placed on lockdown during the incident. “We worked with the schools and rerouted bus stops,” McGrath said. “We also had extra officers at the school.” By 4:20 p.m., all students were released from the school. While Castle Rock spokeswoman Caroline Kipp said initial reports of a fourth suspect were unfounded, investigators continue to consider the involvement of a possible additional suspect who may also be connected to these crimes, according to a Feb. 22 announcement from the town. There are no concerns about the fourth suspect being in the area. The suspects are in custody in the Douglas County jail, McGrath said. Kazadi was charged with two counts of

attempted assault in the first degree on a peace officer; vehicular eluding; second degree burglary; and theft. His bond was set at $500,000. Brothers Alexander and Andre Greer, of Aurora, face charges of second-degree burglary and theft. Alexander Greer’s bond was set at $250,000; Andre Greer’s bond was set at $300,000, McGrath said. Authorities are not releasing the suspects’ mugshots because the photos will be part of a photo lineup as part of the ongoing investigation. No one was injured during the incident. The police officer was placed on paid administrative leave, standard practice when an officer discharges a firearm, Kipp said. Officials are not releasing the name of the officer involved, as Castle Rock police conduct an internal investigation.

Suspects arrested after New Lone Tree police chief brings experience excited about gunfire, lengthy pursuit Streeter challenges of a growing Three people captured after 15-mile chase By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcolorado news.com A man who led police on a chase from Castle Rock to Parker over the weekend and allegedly fired a gun at officers has been charged with seven counts of attempted first-degree murder of an officer. Clifford “CJ” Galley, of Northglenn, also faces seven counts of first-degree assault on a peace officer and one count of felony menacing. A late-night manhunt ensued around 1 a.m. Feb. 23 and 3,000 residents in several neighborhoods, including Clarke Farms, received reverse 911 calls urging them to stay inside. A helicopter hovered over the area and shined a spotlight through yards in the search, which ended hours later with the arrests. Police say that just after midnight, Thornton and Northglenn police officers were attempting to arrest Galley, 23, on an active warrant for firstdegree assault on an officer with a weapon. Castle Rock officers responded after hearing that a vehicle crashed in the Taco Bell drive-thru on Plum Creek Parkway. Shots were then fired by a suspect, presumably Galley, based on the charges filed. The suspect’s vehicle rammed police vehicles in an attempt to escape, causing mi-

nor injuries to two officers who were treated and released from the hospital the same day. A chase ensued north on Crowfoot Valley Road and when authorities made another attempt to stop the suspects at Crowfoot Valley Road and Stroh Road, the suspect fired on officers again. The suspects dumped the vehicle near Jordan Road and Mainstreet and fled on foot. Galley was taken into custody along with Gwendolyn Devilbiss, 19, and David Vasquez, 24, of Federal Heights. Vasquez faces one count attempted first-degree murder of a peace officer and complicity. More charges are expected to be filed. Devilbiss sustained a gunshot wound and was transported to a local hospital where she was being treated for her injuries and is in stable condition. Police say they do not know who fired the shot that struck Devilbiss, however, three Parker officers and the Northglenn and Thornton officers have been placed on administrative leave. Their names are not being released. Dawn Cashman, public information officer for the Parker police, said “all five officers placed on paid administrative leave shot back after being fired upon.” Galley and Vasquez were being held in the Douglas County Detention Facility on $5 million bonds. They were scheduled to appear in court at 1:30 p.m. Feb. 28 in Douglas County for the official filing of charges against them.

police department By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Incoming Lone Tree Police Chief Jeffrey Streeter held all but three positions during his 24 years with the Lakewood Police Department. “I can name on one hand the (positions) I did not have,” he said. “I was never a K-9 officer. I was never a narcotics officer. I was never a chief of police.” On March 4, he’ll add the chief’s title to that lengthy resume. Streeter fills the post vacated by Lone Tree’s first chief Steve Hasler, who was dismissed without cause in August 2012. The 50-year-old inherited a passion for police work he already has passed to another generation. Streeter is the son of a police officer, and two of his three sons are college students majoring in criminal justice. “I had a strong admiration for my dad, and saw the love and passion he had for this job,” he said. Streeter aims to take the Lone Tree Police Department’s already solid reputation higher. The department got a 91 percent approval rating from residents in a recent city survey, an indication of support Streeter said is rare. “Our whole objective is quality service,” he said. “I’m walking into a department that clearly is doing it very, very well. “Certainly what Chief Hasler put into place I view as a building block. Now, I’ve got to move this department forward and serve this community, bringing more and different ideas.” The Denver native attended Denver Public Schools, graduating from Metropolitan State College in

Jeffrey Streeter, a 24-year veteran of the Lakewood Police Department, will take over March 4 as chief of the Lone Tree Police Department. Photo by Jane Reuter 1984 with majors in criminal justice and sociology. He spent three years with the Broomfield Police Department before coming to Lakewood, where his many hats included that of detective, sergeant, patrol commander, SWAT commander, interim division chief and most recently professional standards commander. Lakewood’s force of 280 sworn officers is nearly six times larger than Lone Tree’s department, but the city is rapidly changing. An estimated 40,000 people someday will live in the RidgeGate development alone. “This is an agency I foresee will grow,” said Streeter. “I’m excited for the challenges that lie ahead.” Streeter also is an instructor at Red Rocks Community College Police Academy. He received a 2009 award for help planning Denver’s Democratic National Convention, a 1999 award for SWAT response to the Columbine High School

shooting, and a 1992 Police Officer of the Year award from the Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office. He and his wife Michelle live in Lakewood, and have no immediate plans to move. Lone Tree Cmdr. Ron Pinson, who has served as interim chief since September 2012, will resume his position with the city’s Operations Division. The Lone Tree Police Department was created in 2005. City Manager Jack Hidahl cast the deciding vote for Streeter after three panels representing the community, police and city staff unanimously recommended him from among six finalists. Hidahl also made the still-unexplained decision to fire Hasler, which the former chief alleges was retaliation linked to a harassment complaint about Hidahl filed by a female police department employee. Hasler said he intends to file a lawsuit against the city.

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com

susThe Douglas County School District’s ill be recently announced 2 percent staff pay ingoing crease boils down to a decrease in pay for some teachers, and only a small increase dent. for others, a fact union president Brenda d adSmith believes should be made clear. when But school leaders say the steadily imsaid. proving state revenue forecast strongly sugf the gests they’ll be able to give teachers more conthan 2 percent during the 2013-14 academic year. To do so now, they say, would be financially imprudent. They also plan to cover increases in medical benefits and Public Employees’ Retirement Association contributions. All told, those enhanced benefits add up to $9.8 million. “I don’t think that most people would call increasing compensation to our employees by $9.8 million insignificant or a `smokescreen,’” DCSD spokeswoman Cinamon Watson wrote in an email. “I think it’s just a smokescreen,” said Smith, president of the Douglas County Federation, whose longstanding agreement with the district expired in 2012. “What they’re trying to say is they’re giving teachers this great pay increase, when actually, many teachers will make less, with some

ce

teachers making less than a dollar a week more.” Smith’s contention stems from the fact that only about one-third of last year’s 3 percent pay increase is a permanent addition to teachers’ salaries. Another one-third was a retention bonus, and the remainder was a flat $500 bonus based on an average of all staff salaries. Half of the 2 percent increase announced during the school board’s Feb. 19 meeting will become a permanent addition to district staff’s paychecks. A teacher who in 2011-12 had a $54,000 salary, which DCSD says is its average pay, would in 2012-13 have been bumped to $55,580. With the recently announced 2 percent increase, that same teacher will have a salary of $55,630.80 in 2013-14, or a year-toyear increase of less than $51. Teachers’ pay in Douglas County ranges from about $32,000 to $80,000, according to DCSD. This means those on the lower end of that scale actually will make less in 2013-14 than in 2012-13, since for them the upcoming one-time, 1-percent bump is smaller than this year’s $500 bonus. That won’t be the case, however, if DCSD boosts teachers’ compensation further. “If we receive additional revenue from the state — and we are cautiously optimistic that we will — we will give a larger increase to our employees,” Watson wrote. “Our goal for next year is to bring our salary increases up to as high a level as possible so we can continue to retain and attract the

The district gave its teachers a 3 percent increase in 2012; 1 percent was a permanent increase and 2 percent is only effective for the year. Additionally, Betz said the district will absorb increased costs in medical benefits and — as it did this year — a $2.2 million required increase in contributions to the Public Employees’ Retirement Association. PERA is the teachers’ equivalent of Social Security. Parents, too, will get a small financial benefit with the removal of a $25-per-student technology fee. The positive financial outlook is due in large part to brightening state revenue projections, which translate into more money for Colorado’s school districts, but also to conservative district budgeting decisions, Betz said. “We’ve had to create lots of different efficiencies throughout the school district,” Betz said. “We don’t want to create expectations that can’t be fulfilled,” she added. “We want to get out of those cycles of spend, spend, spend, cut, cut, cut. We’d like to maintain a nice, stable environment moving forward in history.”

Board opening draws 18 candidates School post expires with November election By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com A total of 18 people are seeking a single seat on the Douglas County School Board. The spot was vacated in January by board Vice President Dan Gerken, who resigned for personal reasons. The remaining members of the board will choose Gerken’s replacement by mid-March. Candidates include Joan Brown, Daniel Coombe, Steve Dovey, Debra Dreyer, Michael Glowacki, Aaron Johnson, Kevin Leung, Carrie Mendoza, Riley Mikelson, Brant Phillips, Randy Reed, Judith Reynolds, Herbert Rose, Charcie Russell, Page Schonher, Christine Strang, George Teal and Barb Wendell. All of them live in the southeast portion of Douglas County, the area included in the board’s District D. Because that term expires in November, the board’s chosen candidate will either step down at that time or seek re-election.

very best.” Smith believes the district has the money in its grasp now to not only give teachers a more substantial pay increase, but to restore some programs and staff positions lost during four straight years of budget cuts. “We have the highest paid superintendent in Colorado,” she said. “We have an $86 million general fund balance. “Yet when you look across the board, many of our teachers are making less than those in surrounding districts. They aren’t putting the amount of money back into the

classroom that’s needed to make a difference.” DCSD has an unrestricted fund balance of $86.7 million, but an unassigned fund balance of about $18.1 million. Most of the difference is designated for specific funds. Board members say they’re budgeting conservatively to ensure the district’s ongoing financial health, citing a still uncertain economic future. “We have been absolutely transparent in both our intent — to provide as large a salary increase as possible — and our budget numbers,” Watson wrote.

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

Olympic wrestling decision falls flat Last weekend’s state high school wrestling tournament brought together some of the most dedicated young men and women in Colorado to showcase a sport that is off the mainstream radar. The hundreds of teenagers who competed in Denver spent months, maybe years, working on moves and strategy, running, lifting weights and sweating. During the season, many monitored their weight down to the ounce. What’s more, they carved out a certain toughness they might not otherwise have known was there. For most of them, their moments on the mats at the Pepsi Center would be the ultimate stage. But some of the young grapplers, no doubt, have aspirations to extend their wrestling careers. First, college. Then, if they can beat the odds, the Olympics. But have the odds already beaten them? As you may have heard, the International Olympic Committee voted on Feb. 12 to drop wrestling from the Summer Games

OUR VIEW following 2016. The sport doesn’t grab the headlines, the TV ratings or the ticket sales of many other athletic endeavors. True, the only wrestling champion many people can name is Hulk Hogan, who performed in a professional, scripted version made for TV. But the amateur sport, real wrestling, has history on its side, dating to the first modern Olympiad in 1896. Going back even further, more than 2,000 years ago, Greeks saw fit to grapple. Wrestling ultimately took hold in many nations and continues as a true test of not only athletic aptitude but of one’s self. Last summer, Forbes.com ran an article

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Don’t act rashly on gun control

In a recent letter to the editor, Alex Miller writes “common sense suggests adding fuel to the fire in the form of more guns is a terrible idea.” What he forgets is that, even if gun sales were completely banned today, our nation would still have nearly 200 million private weapons and gun availability to criminals would remain unchanged. Gun ownership has been a feature of our nation since colonial days; however, mass shootings at schools began in the 1990s. Gun availability is not the cause. Common sense suggests that the reason killers head to schools is because they’re defense-free zones. Unlike Sandy Hook and Columbine, in three shootings where teachers took decisive action (retrieving a gun from a car or tackling the gunman) the number killed was small. In 2007, a gunman killed five in a Utah mall before being pinned down by an armed bystander. Citizens using pocketknives stopped United 93 on 9/11. Defensive arms assisted citizens in each case. Should we worry about those who are trained and licensed for concealed carry? No. These individuals are screened and trained. In the Aurora theater, trained concealed-carry citizens didn’t return fire, having no clear shot in the smoke-filled dark room. Worst case, concealed carry makes no difference. But, in many cases, it reduces the damage. Absolute safety isn’t possible; but let’s avoid rash, feel-good gun laws that reduce our safety. John R. Pack Parker

Toll-only lane is poor idea

Building a “Toll Only” lane on C-470 is just a bad idea. It creates a lot more construction, a lot more cost, as well as more driving difficulties and safety hazards. Like

I-25 north of Denver or those HOV lanes in other big cities. And very few people will use it, especially once they see the cost. Just look at C-470 east — it’s practically empty, even in rush hour. This is just an attempt by the C-470 Corridor Coalition to get around putting the matter to a public vote. Why don’t they just put it to the public to see if we really want to pay $350 million to build more lanes? The reality is that South Denver is just growing too big, too fast, and if we want to keep growing like this we’re going to have to pay the cost. Is that what we really want? Brian Arkell Lone Tree

Double standard at schools

Please help me understand the conflict between the Douglas County School Board and the teachers over the sick-leave bank. Recently the school board provided significant money to top administration for unused benefits. Since the school board did away with the teacher sick-leave bank, aren’t teachers due the money for the benefits they put in reserve that they are no longer are permitted to use? Teachers willingly gave up their benefit to be placed in reserve for a colleague who may need it down the road for long-term illness. If the school board is no longer recognizing this agreement they made with teachers, then isn’t it only common sense teachers should receive the money or given back their sick leave benefit? What is good for top administration to receive, should be equal to all employees, or does this board work with double standards or was this money used to pay those top administrators the benefits they received? Dave Usechek Parker

Marching to the same drummer It’s just about time to be as mad as a March hare. March is thought of as a hare’s breeding season, and most hares go nuts when they’re breeding. Who doesn’t? The rest of us have March Madness too. The NCAA Division I basketball tournament is a sports fan’s favorite time of the year. Sixty-eight teams start out, and are eventually whittled down to the Sweet Sixteen, the Elite Eight, the Final Four, then just a couple, and it all happens within a few weeks in March and one in April. There are always surprises, Cinderellas, disappointments, buzzer-beaters, and who the hell is Drexel? If you’re old enough, you can still see Michael Jordan’s game-winner for North Carolina, or Christian Laettner’s gamewinner for Duke. If you’re really old enough, you know what championship team Kenny Sailors played for. We root mostly for our alma maters, but after that there are always wonderful human-interest stories, like Michigan’s Chris Webber calling a time-out when Michigan was out of time-outs. By the time I enrolled in college, my

school had just won back-to-back championships. By the time I was graduated (with two degrees), we had won seven more. The players stayed around for all four years back then, even the best ones. Now they leave after one, and it used to break my heart. Now it’s just the way it is. One afternoon, I thought I would try out for manager, and wound up in a locker room with one of the most famous coaches in basketball history, and what seemed like 10 All-Americans. I never went back. It was too intimidating I don’t watch professional basketball. It’s not basketball. It’s a version of rugby, and Smith continues on Page 9

with the headline “Why wrestlers make the best employees.” The story began with a quote from Olympic gold medalist Dan Gable. “More enduringly than any other sport, wrestling teaches self-control and pride. Some have wrestled without great skill — none have wrestled without pride.” Who wouldn’t like to see more people in the workplace — and in the community — with greater self-control and more pride in what they do? If the Olympics serve as a source of motivation for young athletes to continue honing these traits, why take that carrot away? There is still a fighting chance for the sport to appear in the 2020 games. In May, the Olympic committee will consider adding one more sport. Already, efforts are under way in the wrestling community to make sure their sport is the one. There’s even talk of the United States and Iran working together

for the cause, a true display of how sports can unite. We won’t use this space to trash other sports, ones that could be kept out so that wrestling might stay. All sports, in their own way, teach pride and self-control when done right. But consider this: LeBron James has the NBA Finals. Regardless of what wellintentioned players might say, high-profile professional sports reach their pinnacle within the confines of their league’s playoff tournament. Or in a global, sport-specific championship, such as soccer’s World Cup. Amateur wrestling has major events that unite the world’s finest besides the Olympics. Did you know that? No? That’s the point. Wrestling needs the Olympics’ stage. And the Olympics need wrestling to help it remain something the world takes genuine pride in, not just watches like so much reality TV.

Do you remember the time? Do you remember the time, the first time that you fell in love? Do you remember the time when you first met that special someone? Well, I wish I could lay claim to those words, but they actually come from a Michael Jackson song titled “Remember the Time.” I was coaching one of my sales clients recently and all he could say was that he remembered a time when he was really successful, making sales, making money, and had lots of close clients and friends. Then as we talked more and we started to dig a little deeper we found that he had stopped doing the very things that had earned him those clients and close friends, earned him that money, and helped him make those sales. You see, he started to take for granted the hard work and effort he put into his career and the attention he placed on his prospects and clients. All of a sudden he was living in a comfort zone, not paying attention to detail, not doing the little things, and not going the extra mile to win the business. So what happened? He found himself moving from the top of the leaderboard in his company to almost the bottom. They were getting ready to let him go. Funny thing is that I had another client that I was coaching. He also remembered a time when he was really successful, had a great marriage, was having lots of fun, and thought he had found bliss. Then as we talked more and we started to dig in a little deeper we found that he too had stopped doing the very things that had first connected him and his wife, he stopped courting her, he stopped paying attention to what was important to her, and he found himself staring down at the potential for

All of a sudden he too was living in the comfort zone, not paying attention to detail, not doing the little things, not sharing his heart or feelings. And the same thing that happened to our sales champion happened to him. He went from being the star in his bride’s eyes to being at the bottom. She was ready to let him go. Do you remember the time? Do you honestly remember the time? The time you fell in love and what made you fall in love, the time you first placed eyes on your spouse, the time you first held hands, or the time you first kissed. You know what I am talking about, it’s that time when your heart falls to your stomach and maybe even your toes. Well if you find yourself and your relationship at the bottom, think back to when it all first happened and when it all made sense. Because, if you let your mind sing the song, “Do you remember the time …” you can possibly get back to doing all those things you did that once made you famous, famous as a spouse, girlfriend or boyfriend, employer or employee, or even sales chamNorton continues on Page 9

Smith: Bulldogs are now nation’s darlings Smith continues from Page 8

consists primarily of spectacular dunks and tattoos. Not only that, basketball is a fall and winter sport. But the pros will still be at it two and a half months after Major League Baseball opens its season. That’s not right. Once March Madness gets going, you’ll be able to sample games in airports, sports bars and pharmacies. One of my favorite tournament memories was watching the start of a Gonzaga game — before they became a powerhouse — in one airport, and then seeing the end of the upset in my destination airport. While I was flying high, so were the Zags. Every year some school no one has ever heard of, including their own alumni, beats a team everyone has heard of. Last year it was Lehigh, a 15-seed, beating Duke, a 2-seed. Oh, I’ve heard of Lehigh. I just thought they were in Division III, and played schools like Robert Morris, Muhlenberg and Bucknell. It turns out that they do. The current darlings of college basketball are the Butler Bulldogs, who play in Hinkle Fieldhouse, which opened in 1928. The fieldhouse was used in the film “Hoosiers.” Quick, tell me where Butler is

located? The Bulldogs have been upsetting so many bigger schools (enrollment is only 900 more than Cherry Creek High School), that it’s an upset now when they lose to anyone. Future U.S. Sen. Bill Bradley scored 58 points for what school in the Final Four consolation game in 1965? See how much fun this is? Where did Jerry West go to college? There’s a clue in his name. What school’s nickname is the Hoyas? What’s a Hoya? Here are some answers. Kenny Sailors played for the 1943 champion Wyoming Cowboys. Sailors popularized the jump shot. Butler is located in Indianapolis. Bill Bradley played for Princeton. Jerry West was a West Virginia Mountaineer. Georgetown’s nickname is the Hoyas. And what’s a Hoya? No one knows. Before the first tournament game this year, millions of basketball fans will try to puzzle out the brackets, including President Obama. By the time the tournament is ended, some unknown will have had its Fifteen Minutes. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

Marijuana: No action taken in Castle Pines Marijuana continues from Page 1

Council’s revisions do not help anyone who wants to smoke pot in public, according to Slentz. Amendment 64 makes it illegal to openly consume marijuana in a public place or to consume it in a place that endangers others, Slentz wrote in his staff report to councilmembers. With the exception of the town of Larkspur and the city of Castle Pines, the prohibition on commercial operations extends throughout Douglas County. The county was the first to adopt a prohibition in unincorporated areas such as Highlands Ranch, Sedalia and Franktown. Lone Tree, Parker and now Castle Rock prohibit commercial operations. Castle Pines has taken no action on the provisions of Amendment 64, said Mayor Jeffrey Huff. The city has re-

COMMERCIAL MARIJUANA IN DOUGLAS COUNTY Banned in unincorporated areas including Highlands Ranch, Franktown, Sedalia, Roxborough, Louviers. Banned in the municipalities of Castle Rock, Parker, Lone Tree. Indefinite moratorium in Larkspur; council decision pending legislative guidance. No action taken in Castle Pines. ceived no applications from business owners interested in opening up shop in the city, he said. “Council plans to address this in the near future,” Huff said. “We wanted to see some of the uncertainties surrounding the amendment resolved. There seems to be a lot of uncertainty surrounding the appropriate level of local regulations. Before adopting any additional local regulations in Castle

Pines, we want to make sure we’re proceeding in an appropriate manner.” Larkspur has yet to decide whether to ban commercial operations or adopt regulations for interested business owners. In December 2012, Larkspur adopted an indefinite moratorium on commercial activities, said Town Manager Matt Krimmer. The town will revisit the matter when Colorado lawmakers finish the 2013 session and provide regulatory guidance, Krimmer said. For now, Larkspur Town Council’s decision is up in the air, he said. “We are not accepting any license applications at this time for commercial marijuana businesses,” Krimmer said. The legislative session finishes in May and local agencies have until July to draft regulations.

Targets: Board chief praises teachers’ work Targets continues from Page 1

“Nobody has given us a script. We’re building this system as we go along. That doesn’t give teachers a lot of comfort, but if you’re a good teacher, you don’t let that get in your way.” Lucas used her fourth-graders’ book project as an example of putting the world-class education targets into action. Her students studied char-

acter traits, with a focus on bullying. Each of them then wrote a book about bullying, which they shared with kindergarten students. Now, students are converting the paper books into e-books, which they’ll share with students in New York who are their pen pals. Those fourth-graders may in turn share the books with kindergarteners in New York. The long-term project ties together

all 12 targets. School board president John Carson said the teachers’ results are exciting. “All the board has ever said is we believe compensation and ratings and evaluations should be improved to measure results in the classroom,” he said. “We have always said we want it to be a system developed by the teachers — the education professionals.”

Sailing through dark waters Some see humor in play rich with despair

IF YOU GO “The Seafarer” plays through March 2 at the Aurora Fox Studio Theatre, 9900 E. Colfax Ave., Aurora. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday. For reservations, call 303-739-1970, or visit aurorafoxartscenter.org. Free parking adjacent.

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Veteran local actor/director John Ashton said he spent three years trying to get the rights to “Seafarer,” calling it “far and away one of the finest plays I’ve ever seen.” He has assembled a fine cast and arranged with Michael Stricker of the former Paragon Theatre Company to direct it. Stuart Barr, once technical director at Town Hall, now with Denver Center’s education Department, designed the grungy set — an old Dublin house that hadn’t seen a woman’s touch in years. One was sure it smelled of smoke, beer and sweaty old men. Richard Harkin (Steef Sealy) was blinded in a drunken fall and needs his younger brother “Sharky” (John Ashton) to help him with day-to-day functions — help that Richard resists with rather cruel barbs and demands. His certainty that one needs to

drink oneself into a stupor on Christmas Eve carries along this very Irish story. His rages and swearing provide some black humor with his totally wacky pronouncements Sharky, who has lost his job and his woman, is trying to overcome his own alcoholism and is gloomy in contrast to his brother’s joviality. The two are joined by longtime barfly buddy Ivan Curry (Warren Sherrill — also from Paragon), who is out of favor with his wife — and furthermore can’t see well without his misplaced glasses. Richard has also invited Nicky Giblin (Brock Benson) to join them for a game of poker and plentiful booze. Entering with Nicky is polished Mr.

Lockhart (Kevin Hart), who seems cut from an altogether different cloth. Magic realism comes to play here as it develops that he is the Devil, come to collect a debt from Sharky. It seems they were both in prison long ago when Sharky killed a man. Lockhart agreed not to tell, but said he’d be along later for Sharky’s soul. While the others don’t realize what’s going on, he and Sharky are playing a deadly earnest game of poker. The popular play, which opened at the Royal National Theatre, London, in 2006, is called funny by many critics, but I felt it spoke of loneliness and despair, of a bunch of soused, self-centered men who weren’t going anywhere but down — with the possible exception of dapper Mr. Lockhart, who really wasn’t a guy you’d want to get acquainted with. The actors all had the Irish speech mastered, with the special rhythms it brings. They are all skilled performers and the play is worth a visit to see them in action together, playing off each other in a puttogether production — a credit to the cast and Strickler’s tight direction.

New concept hits Colorado art world 18 creators featured in program offering shares By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com The concept of buying a share in an organization that distributes fresh vegetables through the season, Community Supported Agriculture programs, is fairly well known … but shares in art? Community Supported Art Colorado, CSArt Colorado, has announced a lineup of 18 diverse artists who will each produce 59 original works of art. (A call for artists went out late in 2012. Selected artists will be paid $850 each.) Fifty pieces of art will go to shareholders and the remaining nine to participating artists.

The Denver Botanic Gardens and the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art have partnered to present this program, designed to connect local art lovers with local artists. One hundred shares will be sold for $400 each, with collectors divided into two groups. Each shareholder will receive nine original works of art. Shares are available now: For information, go to csartcolorado.org or info@csartcolorado.org. Half of the work will go to each group in three different distribution events. The first will be on May 16 in the West Terrace tent at Denver Botanic Gardens. At this time, the Gardens will introduce its sculpture show, “Catalyst,” which will includes works by Colorado artists displayed throughout the gardens.

Shareholders will be classified Enthusiasts I or Enthusiasts II. Artists selected include: • Enthusiasts I: Allan Andre, writer/poet/ performing artist; Libby Barbee, cut paper drawings; Mark Bueno, painter/sculptor/ furniture design; Donald Fodness, illustrator; Theresa Haberkorn, printmaker; Terril Heilman, photographer; Viviane Le Courtois, printmaker/installation artist; Margaret Pettee Olsen, painter; Thomas Scharfenberg, painter. • Enthusiasts II: Teresa Booth Brown, painter/collage artist; Amber Cobb, illustrator; David Daniels, poet; Anna Kaye, illustrator; Jamie Lang, painter; Adam Milner, photographer/installation artist/ videographer; Tony Ortega, painter; Denis Roussel, photographer; Chinn Wang, printmaker/sculptor.

Carry On Feb. 16

This year’s James Beard Awards semifinalists — which many consider the Oscars of the restaurant industry — are out with several nods to Denver-area nosheries. Here are the contenders: Best Chef Southwest: Alex Seidel, Fruition; Max MacKissock, The Squeaky Bean; and MacKissock’s wife, Jennifer Jasinski, Rioja (which should make for some interesting pillow talk). Rising Star Chef of the Year: Jorel Pierce, Euclid Hall Bar & Kitchen (who works for owner Jasinski). Outstanding Wine Program: Frasca, Boulder. Outstanding Restaurateur: Frank Bonanno, owner of Mizuna, Luca d’Italia, Osteria Marco, Russell’s Smokehouse and more. Outstanding Bar Program: Williams & Graham. Finalists will be announced March 18; awards ceremony (a fancy-schmancy affair in New York City) is May 6.

Ski scene seen

If you’re a “Today” show watcher, you know that lead host Matt Lauer was absent from the show last week. According to my spy, Lauer and his family were spotted on a ski vacation in Vail. Meanwhile, over at Avon, another spy reports that Academy-Award-winning actress Frances McDormand and her filmmaker-husband Joel Coen were staying at The Westin Riverfront last week. I was told that “they are skiing and relaxing.”

Art from the heart

The Madden Museum of Art, 6363 S. Fiddlers Green Circle in Greenwood Village, is opening “Inspired by Art: The Building of a Legacy,” which showcases the artwork collected by John and Marjorie Madden during their 50 years of world travel, exploration, philanthropy and office building development, with a reception from 6-9 p.m. March 16. The permanent installation is the sum of 50 years of collecting and is curated by Museum of Outdoor Arts executive director and co-founder Cynthia Madden Leitner. The opening celebration will feature traditional Irish fare, cocktails, refreshments and Celtic-themed entertainment. John Madden formed the John Madden Company, a real estate development business, in the mid-1960s, which continues to operate today. The Maddens call Denver home.

touches. First place went to S. Williams for her “Contemplative Morning in Salcomb, England,” a large watercolor depicting a quiet woman seated in a formal room — apparently thinking. A warm palette includes peach, probably velvet chairs and dark walnut wood. Her dress is in neutral tones, so she doesn’t stand out from the rest of the patterns. Second place was awarded to Fred Bikle for his watercolor, “Alley Rental” and third place to Joyce Murphy for “Tranquility.” An Honorable Mention

ribbon went to photographer Peggy Dietz for “After the Lunch Crowd,” which shows a waitress cleaning up in a mellow-looking restaurant with exposed brick wall. Another was given to Brian Serf for his watercolor, “Gates of Lodore, Green River.” The Depot Art Gallery is located in a 19th-century Santa Fe Railroad depot, which was restored by Littleton Fine Arts Guild members with Bicentennial funds and other grants. They operate it, although it belongs to the City of Littleton. Hours are 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Wednesdays through

Wolff quitting Goodwill

After nearly three years as president and CEO of Goodwill Industries of Denver, Jesse Wolff has announced he is resigning. During his tenure, Wolff has made a significant impact growing the venerable nonprofit’s mission, building the brand, investing in its employees and facilities and transforming the culture of the organization. Since Wolff was hired in 2010, Goodwill’s revenues have nearly doubled and community donations MARCH APRIL SPECIAL SPECIAL

I

have increased significantly. Also under Wolff’s leadership, Goodwill has created nearly 500 new jobs in Denver and northern Colorado, and the company is now among the 60 largest private employers in the state with nearly 1,400 employees. Also over the last three years, Goodwill has opened 15 new retail stores, Outlet Worlds and donation centers — contributing millions in economic impact to the state. “This was not an easy decision to make,” Wolff said. “In my time at Goodwill, thanks to the hard work of so many talented, hard-working employees across the company we’ve accomplished so much — we’ve increased revenues by more than 40 percent, we’ve increased the reach of our mission programs tremendously and we added 500 new jobs, just to name a few. The transformation of Goodwill that I envisioned has become a reality and I feel like I’m leaving Goodwill in a really good place. “The decision of who will replace me will ultimately be made by Goodwill’s Board of Directors led by Carrie Mesch. I feel we have one of the

strongest boards a nonprofit could ask for, so I am confident they will find someone who will continue to lead Goodwill on its path of increased mission impact, retail growth and employee investment.” Upon Wolff’s departure, for which a date has not yet been set, David Brunick, Goodwill’s vice president of human resources, will act as interim CEO.

all her life!

What do you like most about it? There is such a natural energy and beauty throughout the area, you cannot help but be inspired to live life to its fullest, enjoying every single day. Our fabulous weather (that’s our best kept secret), views and quality of life can’t be beat!

We specialize in helping people make a major decision in their lives. People trust us to guide them and we use our professional business experience plus our area knowledge to ensure a positive experience for our clients and their families. What is the most challenging part of what you do? Buyers and Sellers lives are so busy today, finding the time for the home process and them not feeling rushed can be a challenge. Our current low inventory is forcing buyers to make very quick decisions, which is fine when the buyers are fully educated. What do you most enjoy doing when you’re not working? Fly fishing in our beautiful State, travel around the world, spending time with family and friends and volunteer work.

Do your homework with a knowledgeable agent; making your house into a show home should be your goal and the home will sell quickly and for top dollar. What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house? Make sure you have met with an experienced lender so you and your real estate agent can formalize a plan to find your new home.

What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate? We could certainly write a book, after more than a thousand home sales over the years, we’ve sold everything from an Alpaca Ranch to Multi-Million Dollar LoDo lofts, where would we begin! Finding raccoons, snakes and salamanders (not pets) in homes, having buyer’s children get stung by bees and bloody noses in the car, each day and each deal brings it’s whole set of unusual things! But the unexpected makes it fun! We love what we do!

How long have you worked in Real Estate? Jeri began her real estate career working as a weekend receptionist while she was still in high school. She then obtained her real estate license in 1982, and Roger joined her in sales in 1998.

PROPERTY TAX BA$I¢S P

aying property taxes is a necessary side effect of home ownership. Across the United States, residents are required to pay property taxes based on an assessment of their homes’ value. Taxes on land and the buildings on it are one of the biggest sources of revenue for local governments. Property taxes are not imposed by the states, but by the smaller governing bodies in cities, towns, townships, counties, and other jurisdictions. Although the taxes are mandated by a higher governing power, the rate at which you pay taxes could be based on a very local assessment of the area in which your house is located and the current market conditions. An assessor will visit a home • usually prior to purchase • and make a determination on the percentage of tax to be paid depending on the condition of the home, the

improvements that have been made and the climate of the economy in your particular town or city. Property taxes are usually calculated by taking the assessed value of your home and multiplying it by the tax rate that has been determined by your local government. While no one can “legally” escape paying property taxes, there are several ways to have them lowered. Getting your home re-assessed is one such way. Individuals who have reached a certain age may be eligible for certain discounts on property taxes. But this may require a very low income to qualify. There are also some tax credits or homestead exemptions that may qualify you for a limited assessed value on the property. For those of you who think you pay a “Lion’s Share” in taxes, take this into account. According to data from the Tax Foundation and Forbes,

areas of New Jersey, New York and Illinois boast some of the highest property taxes. Residents of Hunterdon County, New Jersey paid on average $8,600 a year between 2005 and 2009. Those in Lake County, Illinois pay around $6,500. People living in Westchester County, New York can plan on spending $8,400 per year. And to our friends to the north, statistics indicate that homes located in Ontario cities in central Canada have the highest property taxes. Toronto residents, for example, pay an average of $3,900. In this tough economy, lowering property taxes (which are generally rolled into the mortgage amount for ease of payment) could substantially reduce bills. As many as 60 percent of properties across the United States are overassessed, according to the National Taxpayers Union, a nonprofit group that promotes lower taxes. ■

A change in the status of a neighborhood can also give rise to higher property taxes. An influx of new residents or new construction of stores and homes can have a major effect on the assessed value of your home.

If you suspect your property taxes are high, here are the steps to take. • Get a copy of your property tax assessment from the local assessor’s office and double-check all the information contained to see if it is correct. • Check the assessments of five comparable homes that have sold in your neighborhood in the last three years. • An independent appraiser can also provide you accurate information at a cost. Make sure he or she is licensed with the National Association of Independent Fee Appraisers or by the American Society of Appraisers. • It’s not possible to lower the property tax rate, just the assessed value of the home through an official appeal. There may be fees associated with this appeal, however.

Some home improvements will increase the value of your home and, in turn, your property taxes. Here are some of the most common culprits: • extra stories to the home • outhouses, like a guest house • sports courts, like tennis • installation of an inground pool • improvements to fencing • addition of a garage or another room on the home

Combining coffee and collectibles Festive Cup offers more than just java By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Combining coffee with collectibles, Highlands Ranch’s Festive Cup Coffee has a little something for everyone, whether they are looking for some quality caffeine, a tasty treat or that perfect gift for that special someone. Open since mid-December, the shop at 50 W. Springer Drive offers what the Starbucks of the world don’t — a true family business that goes one step beyond what one expects from a traditional coffee house. With a wide selection of Vera Bradley purses, Webkinz, Artesania Rinconada, clothing, jewelry, greeting cards, candles, figurines for all seasons, and yes, even Betty Boop memorabilia, owners Gail Shaloy and Dawn Whitham offer the perfect mix of hard-to-find items all in one place. “We really strive to find unique items in a variety of price ranges from not too expensive to much more expensive that you are not going to be able to run into even if you are shopping in a bunch of other plac-

their business online a few years back, dealing strictly with collectibles, and in 2010 opened The Festive Plum in Historic Downtown Littleton. Not long after opening “The Plum,” the two ladies began to envision a collectible shop that also served as a fullservice coffee bar. The Festive Plum is in the process of closing to give way to the new store. “We thought people would think it was fun if they could come in and get coffee while they were shopping for collectibles,” Whitham said. “Women would come into `The Plum’ with their husbands and they would run outside. Now they don’t feel like they are in a girly store, they can sit inside and relax while their wives are shopping.” The coffee-bar portion of the store is complete with wireless Internet, comfortable chairs, couches and tables. The coffee is local and organic, from Denver’s Coda Coffee Company, and a lot of the delicacies are also local, including the gluten-free chocolate pretzels and chocolate-dipped sandwich cookies by Creative Chocolates by Karen. For more information or a menu, visit www.festivecupcoffee.com. To see a sampling of collectibles, visit www.festiveplum. com. Festive Cup Coffee is open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. Monday-Saturday.

Ponderosa junior Dylan Gabel celebrates his first place victory Feb. 23 in the 5A 170-pound championship match.

Mustangs make run at title, grab two individual crowns Gabel and Williams climb to top of podium By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews. com DENVER - There was more than just individual glory on the line for Ponderosa’s Dylan Gabel and Corry Williams, and they were aware of the situation. Gabel and Williams needed to win their 170 and 182-pound title matches to secure a second place finish in the Class 5A Colorado State High School Wrestling Championships Saturday night at the Pepsi Center. Both wrestlers won. Gabel defeated Horizon’s David Chitwood, 3-1, and Williams notched a 7-1 decision over Joel Hernandez of Brighton. That provided Ponderosa with the margin to hold off Greeley West for the runner-up spot behind state champion Pomona. Ponderosa finished with 107.5 points, four more than Greeley West. Pomona wound up with 125 points and had the title sewed up before the championship finals. “We talked about it a little bit

but the coaches told us that if we would go out and do what we were supposed to do, everything else would take care of itself,” said Gabel. “Me and Gabel had a heart to heart,” said Williams. “He told me, `promise me that you’ll win’ and I said, `promise me that you’ll win.’ It was all about the team. “I had a lot of things running through my mind of what I needed to get done. I went out and did it.” Gabel, a junior who missed last season because of a broken back, used a takedown and an escape to build a 3-0 lead to defeat Chitwood, who he pinned in 54 seconds of the Region 1 finals. “I thought I wrestled a smart match,” said Gabel who finished the season with a 41-5 record. “The energy of the crowd and the excitement, I wore myself out a little but I came out on top. “It feels great. Glory to God first of all. After all I went through, I wouldn’t be here without him. I’m super blessed and just feel on top of the world.” Williams, a senior with a 35-4 record, wrestled with an injured thumb that will require surgery but he used two near-pins to capture the state title and improve

Corry Williams upon last season’s third place finish. “It feels amazing, I can’t explain the feeling,” said Williams. “I’m from East St. Louis. I’m not from here. I had to show off.” Ponderosa polished its deep wrestling tradition last weekend. The Mustangs own 10 Colorado state wrestling crowns and captured their 19th consecutive league championship earlier this season. The individual titles captured by Gabel and Williams were the 34th and 35th won by Ponderosa wrestlers won over the years. Gabel’s win added to Ponderosa’s state wrestling legacy. His brother Austin was a three-time state champion. Sophomore Kade Snider who finished third at 113 pounds is the younger brother of four-time

Ponderosa state champion Jake Snider. Kade Snider was one of several wrestlers who garnered points towards Ponderosa’s runner-up finish. Other Ponderosa podium finishers were junior Kelton Good (third at 152), junior Torry Williams (fourth at 145) and sophomore Tanner Olson (sixth at 160). “We feel like we had a good tournament,” said Ponderosa coach Corey McNellis. “The boys really did peak at the right time. It feels good “Pomona was a bear this year. They were so deep that you can’t be disappointed in second place. I’m so proud of these guys. From the beginning of the season until now the improvement these guys made and how they bought in was special.”

State recap: Rutz falls in 113-pound finals Only second loss of season for ThunderRidge senior By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com DENVER - Kyndall Rutz admits he was thinking too much. Rutz, a senior from ThunderRidge, lost 6-2 to Jess Harkin of Coronado in last Saturday’s 113-pound championship match at the Colorado High School Activities Association Class 5A Wrestling Tournament at the Pepsi Center. The loss was a frustrating disappointment for several reasons: • It was in the state finals. • It marked only the second loss in 44 matches this season for Rutz. • And, Rutz Harkin, 3-0, in the Region 4 semifinals the week prior.

Rutz had a 2-1 lead after the first period but an escape and two takedowns by Harkin spoiled the title hopes of the Grizzly wrestler. “I was trying to pace myself,” said Rutz. “I played more of a defensive game. I didn’t pick up my feet. “I beat him the week before at regionals. I know better than to overthink people. Just because I beat them, that doesn’t mean they are going to give me the win. “I just didn’t go out and wrestle the match I needed to,” he continued. “I stopped attacking. I stopped moving. I needed to pick it up. That was a big mistake on my part.” Other local wrestlers who placed included Douglas County senior Jack Lindsay who finished fourth at 182 pounds. “Fourth isn’t bad at all,” said Lindsay. “It’s pretty full filling. I’ve been putting a lot of hours into this for the last couple seasons so this was a very good payoff.” Chaparral sophomore Dane Drimmer was third at 285 pounds and ended the season with a pin in 1:13 over Mike Howshar of

Douglas County’s Jack Lindsay wrestles Dalton Weis Feb. 23. Lindsay won fourth place in the Colorado Wrestling State Championship in the 182-pound weight class. Eaglecrest. “It feels amazing,” Drimmer said. Chaparral’s Keaton Reed captured fifth at 120 pounds. Legend senior Colton Fries was fourth at 170 pounds. Valor Christian senior Chaz Polson lost in the Class 4A 170-pound finals and teammate John Hoist was third in the 152 pound division. Brendon Frazier was the lone Rock Canyon wrestler to qualify for the CHSAA wrestling championships. Frazier, a 180-pound senior, figured his best chance to qualify for the Class 5A state tournament was in a heavier weight class. He was third in the regional qualifying tournament but lost his first round state

tournament match Thursday night at the Pepsi Center when he was pinned by Smoky Hill’s Dexter Bees in 1:07. “It’s really difficult,” Frazier said. “I don’t have the advantage being the smaller one. I feel like I’m a little stronger so I feel like one of them. “It feels good to beat the 220 kids. I’ve always wrestled up. Last year I wrestled 195 and weighed 170. This year I weigh 180 and I am wrestling 220. I feels good to step up and beat them. I like to outlast them and beat them in the third period.” Frazier was eliminated from the tournament in the first round of consolations when he fell to Martin Paredes of Grand Junction Central.

Sports roundup: Golden Eagles grab No. 1 seed Regis, ThunderRidge also earn first-round byes By Jim Benton

There’s no doubt that Mountain Vista spent all season proving they belonged among the state’s top teams. Mountain Vista coach Bob Wood hopes his team doesn’t have any doubts heading into Saturday’s first game of the Class 5A boys state basketball playoffs. The Golden Eagles lost two of their last three regular season games after reeling off 19 consecutive victories, but still earned a No. 1 seed in the postseason tournament, which began on Wednesday after press time. Mountain Vista lost 66-62 at Chaparral and 76-73 at Highlands Ranch and the Golden Eagles will play the winner of Pine Creek-Lincoln Saturday after drawing a first round bye. “I don’t know if losing a tough game helps you,” said Wood. “I’d say winning a tough game helps you. Losing a tough game just puts doubts in your mind.” There’s no doubt in Wood’s mind that Mountain Vista needs to start games better.

“We had the game at Chaparral and the one against Highlands Ranch and we got behind early and then tried to come back and never got the lead,” explained Wood. “The kids play hard like always. It’s hard making up deficits. “We have to do a little better job of executing in the first half. If we do that, we’ll be okay.” ThunderRidge, 17-6, also had a first round bye Wednesday and will face the winner of the Overland-Rampart game Saturday. The girls Class 5A state playoffs started Tuesday and Highlands Ranch, ThunderRidge, Chaparral, Rock Canyon and Arapahoe all had byes. Either Pine Creek or Cherokee Trail will play at Highlands Ranch Friday. ThunderRidge will face the winner of the Rampart-Rocky Mountain game. Chaparral entertains the MonarchPomona winner while the Grand Junction-Mountain Range winner will play Rock Canyon. In Class 4A, the Valor Christian (18-4) boys will play the winner of the Falcon-Green Mountain game in a second-round contest Saturday. THREE ARE OUT - All three local teams were eliminated last weekend from the state hockey playoffs. Standley Lake beat Valor Christian, 2-1, and defending state cham-

pion Regis Jesuit ousted Heritage, 6-0. Mountain Vista beat Aspen, 3-1, but lost 3-2 in four overtimes to Resurrection Christian. SPRING SPORTS - Despite the winter storm, the CHSAA’s 92nd year of spring sports started last Monday for baseball, girls golf, boys and girls lacrosse, girls soccer, boys swimming and boys and girls track and field. Teams may scrimmage March 2 in baseball, lacrosse, soccer, swimming and track and field. Golf and tennis scrimmages and first contests started Feb. 28. All the other sports can start playing March 7. ENDURANCE CHALLENGE -Josh Kalb, a 24-year-old full-time student at Rocky Vista University in Parker, has been selected to join football legend Hines Ward, professional coaches and sports nutritionists on an eight-month challenge to become Ironman. Kalb, two other triathlon apprentices and Ward will be coached by eight-time Ironman World Champion Paula Newby-Fraser to prepare for the 2013 Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii on Oct. 12. “I’m honored to train alongside Hines Ward but being a Broncos fan for all of my life, I have to say there will be some competitiveness between us on the lava fields of Kona!”

Local hockey club wins international title By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com The Arapahoe Warriors, representing the Colorado Avalanche, were crowned the Quebec Pee Wee International B champions after winning five games in the 54th annual tournament in Quebec. Around 2,200 11-12 year-old-players from 15 countries gathered in Quebec City, the capital of the province of Quebec for the 11-day tournament at the Colisee that drew close to 200,000 fans. Chase Gleason scored the winning goal at 8:08 of the third period in the Avalanche Junior team’s 3-2 win over Autriche in the first game of the tournament. Timothy DeBord and Alex Harlan each had two goals in a 4-2 win over the Boston Jr. Bruins. DeBord and Gleason each scored a pair of goals in a 5-0 win over the San Jose Jr. Sharks. Goalie Benjamin Reinholtz got the shutout. Gleason’s four goals paced a 5-3 semifinal win over the Atlanta Fire and DeBord had three goals and five points in the 6-2 championship win over the Rauyn-Noranda Huskies. DeBord finished with 10 points in five games on eight goals and two assists. Gleason also had 10 points with seven goals. Chase Jones had eight points and two goals and six assists. The players wrote postcards during the tournament which were posted on the Avalanche website. All the players were complimentary of the billet families that housed them, the food, pond hockey, the French cultureS and popularity of hockey. “Being champions in Quebec as the Junior Avalanche showed that Colorado has a lot of offer the hockey world,” wrote DeBord. “The best word to describe this tournament would be intense,” said Zach Purcell. “Quebec has been awesome,” said Brian Wittmer. “It is so different than in the U.S. The biggest difference is there is more hockey here than any other sport. There is so much hockey around and everyone knows the sport really well.” John Fulton wrote: “Outside of hockey, there were so many fun things to do. We got to ride a toboggan, the sledding hill was huge, and I loved pond hockey. “The teams were faster and stronger than the teams back home. I feel like I learned a lot about hockey throughout the tournament. I think it will make us a better team back home.” Harlan felt special.

Photo suppliled “I love how our bags are delivered to every rink we play at,” he said. “It makes me feel like a pro. “Our favorite thing to do is sit in the hot tub and then go roll around in the snow. We try to stay in the snow as long as possible then we jump back in the hot tub. The longest any of us stayed in the snow was six seconds.” All the players noted the loud fan reaction when goals were scored and that you couldn’t turn a corner without seeing something about hockey. Owen Jordan, however, is anxious to study more about the French culture he experienced. “Quebec feels very European,” he said. “I love the stone

walls and all the texture on the buildings. It’s totally different than anything we have in Denver. “I like the French culture. I especially like listening to the language. I listen and try to figure out what they are saying. The only words I have learned so far are merci and bonjour.” The team roster was as follows: Ben Scheman, John Fulton, Holden Fry, Alex Walsh, Brian Wittmer, Alex Harlan, Nico Hemming, Zach Purcell, Kyle Liesener, Addison Zeich, Cole Cavey, Chase Gleason, Chase Jones, Will Desmond, Owen Jordan, Timothy DeBord, Ben Reinholtz.
