Sewage treatment plant in Englewood receives millions in federal loan South Platte Renew to invest in water infrastructure, research BY ROBERT TANN RTANN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
South Platte Renew in Englewood, Colorado’s third-largest sewage treatment plant, will receive $22 mil-
lion in federal loan money to pay for infrastructure upgrades, modernization of technology and facilities as well as new research initiatives. The plant, co-owned and operated by the cities of Littleton and Englewood, cleans about 20 million gallons of wastewater per day and services about 300,000 people in Arapahoe, Douglas and Jefferson counties. It’s also been a crucial front line in the battle against COVID-19,
collecting daily samples of sewage that serve as an indicator of how prevalent the virus may be in a given community. The City of Englewood, as part of its share of the plant’s funding, secured the multi-million dollar loan through the federal Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act. “It’s what we need to keep the South Platte River clean and sustain the water supply into the
Clothing boutique continues to grow Rooted Boutique opened by best friends BY RACHEL LORENZ SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
Longtime business partners and first-time mothers Sara Mancuso and Tayler Streeter are taking multitasking to a new level in 2022, but it’s all part of the plan. Owners of White Oak and Rooted, a clothing boutique in Littleton, both women had babies within the last year and are leaning on one another more than ever. “It’s so nice to have each other,” Mancuso said. Mancuso and Streeter met while employed at a bridal store two years before going into business together. That’s where they developed a strong working relationship, Streeter said. The co-workers and best friends opened a shop, then called Rooted Boutique, on Alamo Avenue in 2016 with the aim of providing reasonably priced casualwear for women. They added clothing and accessories for special occasions — think prom, pageants and weddings — later in that first year of business SEE BUSINESS, P12

Law enforcement personnel arrested a suspect who was barricaded in a home in south Englewood after a SWAT scene that lasted several hours, according to Englewood police. The suspect was being sought by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office. A SWAT vehicle was stationed about halfway between Oxford and Nassau avenues on Bannock Street for hours the night of May 12. The voice of police personnel on a loudspeaker could be heard around 8 p.m. saying, “Englewood Police Department; pick up that phone, man,” and “We want to talk to you.” The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office Fugitive Unit had notified Englewood police that the unit was conducting surveillance on a wanted male with felony warrants, according to an Englewood police news release.

The goal is for everyone to share their experience of what happened, to discuss who was harmed by the crime and how, and to create a consensus for
what the offender can do to repair the harm from the offense. Eligibility to participate in the program includes: • Victim approval • The offender’s level of accountability for their actions • The type of offense • Prosecutor’s recommendation with approval of court Participation in the RJ program is ultimately voluntary and if the person chooses not to participate, the case goes through the traditional municipal court system.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, during a May 9 ceremony at Belleview Elementary School in Centennial, granted citizenship to 26 immigrants hailing from 20 countries. Residents currently live in a slew of communities in the Denver metro area and beyond including Aurora, Centennial, Commerce City, Elizabeth, Golden, Highlands Ranch, Lakewood, Parker and Sedalia. “It was probably the happiest moment of my life,” said Fadilayda Solakkaya, who immigrated from Turkey and now lives in Parker, and is excited to have a passport, vote in elections and help her community. Goran Vejvoda, originally from Yugoslavia, has lived in several countries and said being a U.S. citizen “is a privilege.” “How many places are there in the world where you can speak freely and vote freely and think freely,” Vejvoda said. New citizens, were joined by friends and family members as well as about 200 3rd, 4th and 5th-grade students. Also in attendance were county and regional leaders who shared their experiences of being

Before taking the Oath of Allegiance and being presented with their certificates, soon-to-be citizens heard a pre-recorded video message from President Joe Biden who celebrated the depth and diversity of the U.S.’s immigrant community. “America’s a big country and it’s beautiful in the fact that it is so diverse,” Vejvoda said. “Like President Biden said, it’s an immigrant country in a very, very profound way. Those people got together to make things better.”

and research center to test new technologies and treatment equipment to help bolster the system’s resilience to climate change and extreme weather events. The investments are expected to create 282 new jobs, according to a press release from the Environmental Protection Agency. The announcement generated praise from local and national Colorado leaders. “Englewood is leading the charge to modernize our water infrastructure,” Sen. John Hickenlooper said in a written a statement. “This investment will provide clean water, promote resiliency, and create jobs all while saving taxpayers money.” EPA Regional Administrator KC Becker, in a statement, said the agency’s loans are “helping western communities make infrastructure investments that will protect critical water resources in the face of increasing climate challenges.” According to a statement from Englewood Mayor Othoniel Sierra, South Platte Renew is the first in the state to use the federal loan, which was established in 2014, for infrastructure investment. “Not only does the WIFIA program provide the funds necessary to modernize our aging wastewater infrastructure to be more resilient and protect and improve water quality in the South Platte River, it allows the city to delay repayment, saving citizens money,” Sierra said. The loan allows the city to make a 51% match, meaning it will now have more than $40 million for future projects. According to Stone, this money will be spent over the next five to seven years, with the ability for the city to delay payments back to the federal government until 2031. Those payments will be made in increments over the next 30 years, Stone said.

10 p.m. that night. Allen did not have details on what crime the suspect is alleged to have committed. The scene wasn’t believed to be a danger to the broader community, Allen said around 10 p.m. The suspect, identified as 29-year-old Jordan Limon, was turned over to Jefferson County
sheriff’s deputies, and he was to be incarcerated at the Jefferson County jail, the news release said. Several other Englewood police vehicles were parked at either end of that block of Bannock Street, and trucks from Denver Fire Department, which serves Englewood, were on scene as well, along with a Denver paramedic
truck. The block was closed to traffic during the SWAT scene. Greenwood Village police vehicles were also at the scene. It’s typical for other law enforcement agencies to also respond in a SWAT situation, Allen said. Englewood police initially tweeted about the incident at about 6:30 p.m. May 12.
PRESENTS
Englewood’s SWAT team was activated just after 1 p.m. May 12 to assist the Jefferson sheriff’s office, according to Investigator Scot Allen, a spokesperson for Englewood police. At about 6 p.m., the suspect entered a residence in the 4000 block of South Bannock Street and barricaded himself inside, according to the news release. The SWAT Team attempted to contact him for several hours without success. The location is not far from South Broadway and Quincy Avenue. After roughly six hours, SWAT personnel entered the residence and noticed a hole in the attic barrier between joining units, according to the news release. The suspect was located in the attic of the adjoining unit and taken into custody, the news release said. At some point May 12, authorities sent out a reverse 911 call to the “immediate area” near the residence, telling people in that area to shelter in place and stay in their homes, Allen said. Police also evacuated a few homes on that block of Bannock Street, Allen said. Asking a suspect to talk to authorities using a phone that police send over to the suspect is typical in SWAT negotiations, Allen said. Police believed the suspect was alone in the house, and it’s unclear whether the house is the suspect’s home, Allen said around

Free school meal program on November ballot Costs for program would come from limiting tax deductions for high-income earners BY ERICA MELTZER CHALKBEAT COLORADO
Colorado voters will decide this November whether to cover the cost of school meals for all students. All Colorado students have had access to free lunch over the last two years thanks to pandemic-related federal waivers that are set to expire this summer. During that time, many school districts reported more students eating lunch, sometimes
as many as 40% more than in prepandemic times. Lawmakers have sent a measure to the voters that would bring in an additional $101 million a year by limiting tax deductions for highincome earners. Those new state funds would supplement additional federal dollars that schools can claim by participating in the community eligibility program. Rather than relying on families filling out applications for subsidized lunches, school districts could use eligibility for programs like Medicaid and food stamps to count children in poverty and get more meals covered. In addition to covering the costs of school meals, participating school districts could also get money to buy healthy local foods, raise wages for food service workers, upgrade equipment, and train workers to
prepare healthy meals. The proposal would create the Healthy School Meals for All program. House Bill 1414 passed both chambers with bipartisan support, though many Republicans voted no. By getting lawmakers to place the measure on the ballot, supporters save time and money they would have spent gathering signatures. However, there would be a gap year before the program starts. Schools wouldn’t have access to any extra money for the 2022-23 school year. The Democratic sponsors of the measure had originally backed a bill that would have used state money to fill in that gap, but it stalled due to concerns about ongoing costs. Backers of the initiative, such as Hunger Free Colorado, say offering free lunch to all students reduces

stigma and shame and encourages participation, while relieving cash-strapped families of one more expense. Some Republican lawmakers objected to asking a small percentage of taxpayers to pay for something that families should be providing and that many parents can afford. The proposal would limit state income tax deductions for taxpayers earning $300,000 or more. Individuals would be limited to $12,000 and joint filers to $16,000. The measure does not require the governor’s signature to appear on the ballot. The referred measure only requires a simple majority to become law.

Douglas health department moves forward with facility, services, staff Plans approved in May 12 meeting BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The Douglas County Health Department is on its way to providing services, having a facility and hiring staff as the agency prepares to fully separate from Tri-County Health Department later this year. The Douglas County Board of Health approved a list of services the agency will provide during a May 12 meeting. Some of the services included are COVID-19 response, public health emergency preparedness, restaurant inspections, immunizations and sexual health services. During an April 22 work session for the board of health, Public Health Director Mike Hill presented the list of services provided by Tri-County with information about what is expected by the state health department along with recommendations for services he believes the new health department should provide. “There are certain things that I just think are worth doing because they’re important for public health, the state expects us to do them and I think our population expects us to do them,” Hill said. The health department will provide 33 of the 60 services provided by TriCounty. Most of the services the board opted not to use are things the county doesn’t use or are already being completed by other local agencies. Other Tri-County services that won’t immediately be available from DCHD include recreational water inspections, community nutrition and workplace wellness. Each of these categories, Hill said, requires further research before the

board decides if the health department will offer them. When the DCHD was formed, one of the first decisions by the board was to contract with Tri-County to provide all public health services until the end of 2022. The agency will provide vital records as their first service, beginning June 1. The county is also planning to take over emergency preparedness and disease surveillance July 1. Environmental health and community health are set to begin in September. The health department may add or remove any services going forward, Hill said. Staffing and finances The health department has also moved forward with hiring about eight employees, including an administrative assistant, an assistant director for
environmental health and an epidemiologist among others. During an April 19 work session, Hill presented a possible organizational chart to the commissioners, including a full staff of about 35 people and 2 contractors. That staff is expected to cost about $3.5 to $4 million per year, Hill said. The department was set to finalize the organizational chart after approving the services the department will provide. The health department is also required by statute to hire a physician as a medical director because their public health director is not a doctor. Hill said in an email that he plans to begin hiring for a part-time medical director for about five hours per month in July and that there is an interim doctor in the position now.
Hill said he believes the health department can continue to operate on its roughly $2.5 million public health budget with the funds coming from fees and grants. So far, the health department appears to have secured about $1.2 million in grants, according to a memo prepared for the board. The health department will know more about what grants will be available in July. For a physical space, the agency has begun to move into a 8,200 square-foot facility in Castle Rock partially used by Tri-County currently. The agency also has plans to take over the Tri-County office, located inside the county Department of Motor Vehicles building in Lone Tree, sometime after Oct. 1.

department’s policies, he said. Legal cases In April, the board of health decided to file an appeal of a judge’s decision to stop the health department from enforcing its public health order banning mask requirements in the county. The health department enacted that order in October as their first and only public health order. Two months later, two Douglas County businesses filed a lawsuit against the health department, claiming the order and the entire health department are unlawful. A judge granted the businesses request for a preliminary injunction March 4. The department’s notice of appeal was filed April 11 and challenges notions brought in the original case, including the legality of Douglas County’s split from Tri-County.

More Coloradans are vaccinated than ever severe illness, said Dr. Jon Samet, dean of the CU School of Public Health. “One thing that’s clear is if you had the first two shots, get the third,” he said. “There’s some data from Israel that that fourth shot helps, at least for a while.”
BY JOHN DALEY COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO
COVID is ‘mixed bag’ in Colorado The latest COVID-19 data in Colorado is a decidedly mixed bag. COVID-19 hospitalizations rose to 110 last week — up 33 since midApril. But that’s 1,500 fewer than the highest level recorded in the omicron wave. The positivity rate for COVID-19 test is staying above the key 5 percent threshold as public health officials closely watch. As of Thursday, the positive test rate was 6.3 percent, according to state data. It’s been above 6 percent for the last week and doubled since midMarch. But it’s five times lower than January’s omicron wave peak. Wastewater surveillance data showed a pronounced spike in virus detected in mid-April and another smaller rise at the end of last month. “So much of what happens next in this pandemic depends on the next variant or variants,” which is why continuing to encourage Coloradans to get vaccinated and boosted is key, Samet added. “If we had one (variant) with a high degree of immune escape, that is vaccine acquired protection is not great against the variant, that would be a problem.”
Nearly three out of four Coloradans older than 5 are now fully immunized with two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, according to the state’s vaccination dashboard. That’s higher than the national average, which is about 66 percent, according to the New York Times, and puts Colorado at 16th highest among the 50 states. Colorado recently topped a total of 4 million people who had gotten at least two doses, according to the state health department. More than half of all residents got the first two shots, plus a booster. Colorado’s progress on the vaccination front comes at another uncertain point in the pandemic. The latest wildly transmissible variant — BA.2.12.1 — has infected increasing numbers of people in the state and around the country. But many of the tools to limit spread have been dropped, and surveillance and reporting of coronavirus trends are less robust than earlier in the pandemic. Those younger than 5 are still not eligible though approval could come soon. The Food and Drug Administration issued a timetable last month for a decision about authorizing a COVID-19 vaccine for the youngest children in the U.S. It said June 8 is the earliest date it’ll present data to outside advisers for a recommendation.

dropped non-pharmaceutical interventions like masking and contact tracing, while not beefing up surveillance enough to give warning of a potential coming surge, said May Chu, an epidemiologist and clinical professor, also at the Colorado School of Public Health. “I think the trend away from contact tracing, from not promoting vaccination and boosters and the promotion of at home-testing, whose results are not seen by public health,” because most are not reported to health departments, “all point to an uneasy second half of the year,” Chu said. “We are far from being ‘endemic,’ the point where the pandemic has become predictable, Chu said. “New variants are rising and most of the world is blind to that.” Two omicron subvariants, which have emerged since the start of the year account for nearly all of Colorado’s cases, after first delta, then the original omicron variant swamped the state. In the most recent data posted to the state dashboard, the BA.2 subvariant makes up 74 percent and BA.2.12.1 comprises 14 percent. But that’s as of the week of April 10, so that data hasn’t been updated in nearly a month, according to the state’s dashboard.

Wide disparities in vaccinations in Colorado Though vaccination has grown steadily in Colorado since vaccines first started to become available late in 2020, the pandemic’s first year, there’s wide variability across the state and across populations. One group has lagged consistently behind when it comes to COVID-19 vaccines: Hispanics. Just 40 percent of that population has been vaccinated with at least one dose, according to the state’s dashboard. State models suggest the actual number may be higher, 48 percent. Either way it’s measured, that trails all other groups for which the state has recorded informa-
tion including white Coloradans (78 percent), as well as Black or African-American (66 percent), Asian, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander (69 percent), American Indian or Alaska Native (73 percent) residents. “I am still seeing first and second vaccines. We are leaving my community behind,” said Julissa Soto, an independent health equity consultant who works with the state. Soto said she and others have helped vaccinate some 15,000 Latinos since last fall, but would like the numbers to be much higher. “Everyone is talking about the fourth booster and my community still struggles to get their first and second dose.” Where the gaps are Gaps persist as well, comparing the state’s urban, suburban and rural counties. More than 80 percent of those residents 5 and up have gotten two doses in Denver, several metro counties, and some mountain counties.
The figure is better than 70 percent for other large Front Range counties: Jefferson, Douglas, Arapahoe, Adams and Larimer counties. For El Paso County it’s 67 percent, Pueblo County is at 61 percent and Mesa County, on the western slope, is at 54 percent. Fewer than 50 percent of residents are vaccinated in many sparsely populated rural Colorado counties. In Kiowa, Rio Blanco, Cheyenne, Washington and Dolores counties the rate is below 40 percent. The spotty coverage leaves under-vaccinated areas especially vulnerable to future outbreaks. Even where vaccination rates are higher, vaccine effectiveness wanes over time and almost half of all Coloradans have yet to get a booster dose, on top of the first two shots. Chu also worries about another virus taking off in the coming months: the flu. She said Colorado has essentially not had to battle much influenza for two flu seasons now, because COVID-19 precautions also limited the spread of the flu. But “that could rise sharply this year,” she said. Chu said work is underway to develop a “global platform” to monitor exposure to COVID-19 and other diseases of public health concern, “but this has many moving pieces. We cannot let our guard up just yet.” This story is from Colorado Public Radio, a nonprofit news source. Used by permission. For more, and to support CPR News, visit cpr.org.

Mozart’s homeopathic cure for a painful ailment BY KARLA WALKER COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO
A strong cup of coffee may be the cure you need in the morning to wake up and begin working, but in Mozart’s time it was thought to also cure stomach ailments. Hot chocolate, besides being delicious, was thought to make your blood vessels stronger. “Remember, this is a time before there was medicine,” says Colorado pianist Katie Mahan. “So there were a lot of homeopathic treatments and it was believed that chocolate was really good to make strong blood vessels.” Mahan says that Mozart liked both coffee and hot chocolate, but his favorite drink was warm almond milk. “In those days there wasn’t central heating and so the apartments were quite cold. And with this cold apart-
ments many people developed hemorrhoids.” Mahan says the common treatment was warm almond milk. Mozart’s favorite place to have warm almond milk, and shoot a game of billiards, was Café Staiger, now known as Café Tomaselli. Katie takes us to Café Tomaselli where you can order “Mozart’s Mandelmilch” in this latest edition of Mozart Snapshots. Katie Mahan is a Denver native and now lives in Salzburg. Each week she takes on a new journey of walking in Mozart’s footsteps to where he lived, worked, socialized and more. See more Mozart Snapshots episodes, and check back each week for a new episode.

because “people need beautiful dresses to wear that aren’t necessarily going to break the bank,” Streeter said. The bulk of the formalwear they carry is priced in the $200 to $350 range, although there are some pieces that run higher. The majority of the casual clothing is $100 per piece or less. “We want really cute, fun things that you can’t find other places,” Streeter said. “That are unique, but things that aren’t going to go out of style in the next month or two.” The pair relies on intuition, industry knowledge and paying attention to customers to get the right items in their store. “You’re listening to what they’re looking for and the way they like things to fit and what major events they have coming up in their lives,” Streeter said. After six years and two moves, White Oak and Rooted is now at 2565 W. Main St. The store recently started selling baby items in addition to women’s clothing, and it’s not unusual for Streeter or Mancuso to bring an infant into work. “We are so lucky,” Streeter told Colorado Community Media over the cooing sounds of her son. “We’ve got such a great staff, and we’ve had the flexibility to bring the babies when they’re this age.” When the boutique first opened, Streeter and Mancuso worked there together everyday. But over the years, they’ve been able to add employees which gives them the opportunity to work from home a couple of days a week and even take some time off. “We’re only here one to two days a week physically, but at home we’re almost always on our computers most of the day,” Streeter said. There’s clothes to order, reports to run, research to be done. In addition to their Main Street shop, they also maintain an online store at www.whiteoakandrooted.com and sell their casualwear at The Emporium in Castle Rock. While the twosome is obviously happy to have a great month or a great year, success is more than numbers, Mancuso said. She finds it rewarding to see customers return to the boutique to shop for the various events in their lives. Plus the ability to run a business they love as well as have time to be with their respective families is valuable, Streeter. When they first opened, achieving that kind of freedom was the goal. “We put in so much time and work early on,” Streeter said, “so we could create this life.”

Inflation hits hard
R
ecently, like many of you, my eyes popped when looking at the grand total after self-scanning a small number of groceries. How in the world I can spend $80 on a group of items that fit into one bag? FROM THE My 8-year-old son even said, “Wow, mom. How did you spend so much so EDITOR fast?” Me: “Inflation, honey. Inflation.” We are seeing no relief anywhere as prices on everything are going up. Getting gasoline last week, I didn’t event fill my tank up and spend over $50. Going out to dinner, which is becoming rarer, features little notes posted to menus apologizing for havThelma Grimes ing to raise prices but stressing they have no choice. In today’s economy, we are seeing no relief anywhere. The housing market has homes selling for well above what they are worth, groceries are becoming a pick and choose your treats kind of experience and getting gas just makes you worry about how high the price will be the next time you fill up. Even more worrisome than the prices is the supply chain issues. For those women with infants looking for formula right now – I cannot imagine the level of worry they are facing as shelves are bare and transparency on what is going on is low. I know I am blessed because we are getting by. We are managing to pay keep up with the cost of inflation. We are able to manage the gas prices. However, my concern is with some friends and family and people who are not able to keep up. At the current rate of inflation, families are seeing costs increase by nearly $300 per month. Labor department data has consumer prices exceeding 8% with no end in sight. The cost of living before inflation was already becoming unbearable. Now, families are having to budget for an added $300 per month. Rent and mortgage rates give no relief. In attending the annual Parker State of the Town event on May 12, guest speaker Patty Silverstein from Development Research Partners said rent rates continue to go up and that is likely to continue. The nation and world are stressed out, and trying to be optimistic as the dominoes fall has become a lot harder for many families just trying to stay afloat. In thinking about all the data pushed my way last week, I found myself asking — who is getting ahead in this country? It is no secret that the rich are getting richer. But when do the poor and the middle class just get ahead to where they do not have to stress about paying the added $1 for a gallon of milk? There is talk of increasing interest rates not once, not twice, but as Silverstein put it, maybe a third time. I can’t say I am overly optimistic that those steps are going to settle the dust of skyrocketing inflation. Like many, I do not see where our leaders have a clear plan to help families get some stability and my worry is not only will those families no longer be able to stay afloat, but they will continue to sink as the raft they are barely holding on to continues to deflate.

The outer you reflects the inner you
H
ave you ever been around someone in a group setting and suddenly they say something completely out of character or unexpected? And when they realize it, they say or WINNING ask something like, “Did my inside voice just come WORDS out?” Maybe we have all experienced a moment like that, and probably even have been the one to let our inside voice come out unexpectedly. Some of us do a really good job of controlling our words, feelings and actions when it comes to our ability Michael Norton to stay composed, especially when we may not necessarily agree with those around us. We have the ability to keep our outer selves restrained from saying what might really be on our heart and mind. And then there some of us who completely wear our hearts on our sleeve. We do not have a poker face, so we make our feelings known through what we do and what comes out of our mouth. Some might even say that those of us who fall into this category don’t have a filter, when the thought pops into our minds we immediately say or act upon what we feel in that moment. Both types, those who stay calm and can control what they say and feel, as well as those who wear their hearts on their sleeve, are easy enough to understand and recognize. Those who demonstrate restraint are usually very thoughtful and really consider their words wisely before just speaking. And those who don’t hide the way they feel are

more direct and to the point, and live life to its fullest with lots of emotion. Then there are those of us who think we are showing restraint and composure trying to hide our feelings, but our tonality, our expressions, and our body language give us away. Those of us in this group should never play poker. And there are a lot of us who fall into this category, we just don’t see ourselves this way, we think we are fooling others, when they can see clearly right through us. “We cannot consistently act in a way that is inconsistent with the way we see ourselves.” — Dr. Joyce Brothers A lot of how we see ourselves has to do with what we keep on the inside, and what has the potential to come out of us in moments of distress, or conflicts of any kind, and usually at the wrong time. If we are harboring feelings that are negative or angry, our outside self will reflect those emotions. We may be able to mask it for a little while, but sooner or later we will hold our tongue for so long, but then eventually our true inner feelings will be exposed. We all fall somewhere along the spectrum of the three examples mentioned above. And in the world we are living in today we need to feed our minds and our hearts with the words of hope and encouragement, loving kindness, abundance, gentleness, benevolence, generosity and goodness. When we feed our minds and hearts with a steady diet of the positive, our inner self will never betray our outside self. Should we say or do what we feel and believe? Yes. Should we make sure it is said or

Pay attention to tax law changes
N
ow that tax season is over, it is time to start planning for 2022. I know that everyone is probably tax fatigued by now, but we are FINANCIAL STRATEGIES already well into the second quarter of the year. Therefore, any changes that need to be made to impact your tax liability for this year, need to happen fast. are also Patricia Kummer There changes that affect Colorado residents to plan for. First let’s look at tax planning overall. Make sure if you needed to adjust your tax withholding on your paycheck, that you calculate the increase for the remaining pay periods left in 2022. This is also true if you need to increase your 401(k) contribution, the earlier the better. Next, plan if you will be able to itemize your deductions for this year. Do you have higher mort-

done with respect? Absolutely. For some of us, we know exactly where we are when it comes to displaying how we really feel. And for others, we only fool ourselves. The solution is that we say and do exactly what needs to be said or done, and to say it or do it with respect, kindness, and compassion. How about you? Are you staying composed? Do you wear your heart on your sleeve? Or do you have
gage interest, charitable deductions, or medical expenses? If you cannot itemize, think of other ways you can still give to charity and get the deduction while still taking the full standard deduction. Retirees who are taking their required minimum distributions are eligible to give directly to a charity from their IRA account and be taxed only on the amount you receive. Ask your advisor about setting up a Qualified Charitable Distribution or QCD, before you take this year’s distribution. You can still deduct up to $300 per tax filer ($600 for joint filers) of charitable donations on the front of the 1040 without itemizing. High wage earners may benefit from opening a donor-advised fund and bunching several years of charitable contributions into one year, hence being able to itemize. But Colorado residents beware: There is a new law that limits the amount you can itemize on your state income tax return. Even though you may be eli-
the blind spot of maybe projecting what you are feeling on the inside without knowing it? I would love to hear your story at mnorton@xinnix.com, and when we can include a steady diet of the good, the pure, the powerful and the positive, our inside self and outside self will more than likely be in alignment, making this a better than good year. Michael Norton is the grateful president of XINNIX, a personal and professional coach, and a consultant, trainer, encourager and motivator to businesses of all sizes.

gible to receive the full deduction on your federal return, taxpayers who expect to have joint income over $400,000 will be limited to a $60,000 deduction on the Colorado form.¹ This is also a good time to review your potential investment income for this year. With current market volatility, you may consider tax loss harvesting on positions that no longer meet your goals in your portfolio. You can deduct 100% of your realized losses up to the amount of capital gains you incur plus another $3,000 per year against earned income. You can carry forward any unused losses to be used up in subsequent years. There are other changes in Colorado regarding the College Invest 529 Savings Plan for college education. In the past, taxpayers have been able to deduct the full amount of their 529 contribution against their state income tax liability. Starting in 2022, your deductions will be limited to $20,000 per taxpayer, for each beneficiary for single filers, and $30,000 for joint tax filers.²
Be aware that many of the programs put in place last year were forms of stimulus and have expired. There are no monthly stimulus checks, and this year the Child Tax Credit reverts back to $2,000 per child for 2022. Also, the enhanced Child Care and Dependent Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit have reverted back with the exception of minor inflation adjustments.³ Tax planning all year long may provide you with better options and a lower overall tax bill due next April. If you started a business or became a consultant this year, there are good tax savings strategies for you as well. With only seven months left in the year, early planning can provide optimum tax saving strategies. 1. Colorado House Bill 21-1311; 2. College Invest; 3.

Experts around Denver metro area weigh in on the popular sport BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
T
he South Platte River is a great place to get fish to bite, but local anglers say there’s a lot more to know about the river — and the sport — than just throwing out a line. The sport of fly fishing, popularized in part by American novelist Ernest Hemingway, is a popular fishing method that involves sight fishing — actual-

ly spotting the fish in the water before you cast — and uses a special rod, reel, line and flies. The flies themselves are not real. They mimic the fish’s natural diet of insects in the streams and rivers in which they live. Anglers often have a whole kit full of different flies to match the “local cuisine” of bugs where they are fishing. The Denver South Platte Rick Mikesell’s family has lived in Denver for three generations. He has dedicated many hours to fishing on the Denver South Platte, both on his own time and as a guide. He works as operations manager at Trouts Fly Fishing. The Denver South Platte,
which runs right through the city, isn’t exactly what one might picture as a traditional fishing destination. The urban location often has obstacles like rebar, scrap metal, shopping carts and other hazards in the water. Unhoused people often spend time near the river, setting up camp along the banks. Mikesell said he frequently has people hesitant to fish in these areas because of this population, but he said being respectful to people on the river yields the best results. “I’ve never had a negative experience as long as I treat other people with respect,” he said.
Colorado Parks & Wildlife does not stock the Denver section of the South Platte. A private entity stocks trout in the metro area, but the other fish in the river, including small mouth bass, carp and walleye, are naturally occurring. Unfortunately for trout, their life cycle in the DSP can be fairly short. When temperatures begin to rise, these fish start dying. “When we get into the summertime … .the summer gets really warm. For a trout, water over 68 degrees gets really stressful,” Mikesell said. SEE FISHING, P17

FISHING FROM PAGE 16
Trouts Fly Fishing works on conservation efforts where the outfitter cleans the waters of the river and fundraises for conservation of the area. The group, according to Mikesell, does not believe the DSP should be stocked with trout at this time due to the warm water temperatures. Further up the hill, things may not be better for trout. The North Fork of the South Platte The natural flow of the North Fork is that of a small creek. The waters are polluted with heavy metals like iron, copper and aluminum from various mining operations, according to Mikesell. Denver Water releases more water through Roberts Tunnel from Dillon Reservoir for their service areas, which increases the flow of the river and allows various outfitters to stock the waters with fish. That is how Mikesell explained the area of the North Fork, which flows into DSP, and John Ellis, longtime angler and member of Evergreen Metro Water Board, corroborated what Mikesell said. “When it’s real low, the minerals get on their gills and clogs them and essentially suffocates them,” Ellis said. Ellis is also a board member of Evergreen Trout Unlimited. The group’s goal is to conserve and protect coldwater fisheries. Right now, even in the foothills, conservation groups are worried about the warming waters, too. “We’re very concerned with climate change,” Ellis said. His group is working to monitor water temperatures in tributary streams to learn about warming, and members are hoping to replenish the Greenback Cutthroat Trout population, which happens to be Colorado’s state fish. The warmer water can spell trouble for the resident insect populations, which are the food source for these fish. Warmer water can also mean less oxygenation for fish. “How is the bug life doing? As it heats up, sometimes there’s less bugs, then they don’t have the bugs to eat,” Ellis said. “As water gets warmer, it doesn’t have as much oxygen.” Getting out there Fishing the DSP, North Fork and countless other streams and lakes in Colorado can be a fun way to spend a warm summer day. Mikesell said the sport might take a little getting used to, though. “For Denver South Platte, while it’s a high quality fishery, it’s not really beginner friendly,” he said. He said learning to fish the river will take some casting skills and gear. He said becom-
‘Once we get into late May, early June, those fish are at the best time of their lives.’
Rick Mikesell shows off a fish he caught in the Denver South Platte.
Rick Mikesell, fly fishing guide ing a good angler requires a lot of practice. “If the angler is willing to work at it and spend time, they can improve,” Mikesell said. After spending years with a fishing rod in hand, even Mikesell doesn’t slay fish every day. “I’ve been doing it for over 20 years, and I still have bad days all the time,” he said. Michelle White, owner of Tumbling Trout Fly Shop in Lake George, has been fly fishing for over 20 years. When she became interested in guiding a number of years ago, she found herself stuck in a male-dominated sport and industry. So she decided to change it. “One of the reasons I started my own fly fishing business seven years ago … no one would even look at my resume, so I started my own guide service,” she said. Now, she encourages women to get involved in the sport. With lots of women’s beginner fishing groups popping up around Colorado, she hopes all beginners can enjoy the sport. “Grab a friend and hire a guide and maybe join one of the women’s fly fishing groups,” she advised. As for finding the perfect day to go out and fish, Ellis recommends a slightly overcast day for better vision, and Mikesell said to avoid the heat and avoid fishing right after rain storms, which can cloud the water. Both anglers agreed that one of the most important pieces of gear to have is a pair of polarized sunglasses. According to Mikesell, during the month of May, the bass and carp are spawning. Then, the fishing gets really good. “Once we get into late May, early June, those fish are at the best time of their lives,” he said. A quick Google search can yield hundreds of results for outfitters and guide services for fly fishing in Colorado, so the eager angler can take their pick, or simply get out there and start casting.

Lynne Collins takes over theater at the Arvada Center
L
ynne Collins has been announced as the Arvada Center’s new Artistic Director of Theatre, following the retirement of Rod A. Lansberry. Collins, the current Artistic Director of Plays, first joined the Arvada Center in 2016 and lead the growth of the center’s Black Box Theatre and its repertory company. “Lynne is a tremendously talented artist and a fierce advocate for inclusion in the arts,” said Arvada Center President and CEO, Philip Sneed. “Her dedication to the Arvada Center and the entire Denver theatre community alongside her innovative artistic vision make her the ideal choice to lead our theatre program into the next chapter on our journey.” We spoke to Collins about her new role and what comes next. Interview edited for clarity and brevity. Tell me about becoming the new Artistic Director of Theatre? We had some internal meetings about what to do now and where we’re heading. After talking it through it became clear we couldn’t ponder for too long with the season starting soon. They came to me and I said okay. I know the place well and have all the information and I’m also looking toward the end of my career, which means I’m in a
nice transitional place as a leader. What we need to do is rethink everything - there are lots of questions about how we do the work as a theater. I want to do great work while here and be the leader for the next phase of the Clarke Reader Arvada Center. Where do you see theater at the Arvada Center now? We’re still in recovery from COVID and next year will probably still be a recovery year. And that starts to present a lot of questions we don’t have answers to yet. We don’t know if this is a permanent change yet - will people’s comfort zone in an enclosed space going to change in the long term? And how do you plan for that? There are more questions than answers right now, and while we know what the questions are, we don’t know how to address them. What are you looking forward to in the new season? I’m really excited about directing “Into the Woods” - I’ve never done a musical at the Arvada Center, so that’s exciting. I’m generally excited about how to make this transition - there’s a lot of intuitional knowledge here at the
Arvada Center, which is really lucky for me. What do you want the Arvada community to know about your goals at the theater? People won’t see a big change this coming season but stay tuned for the season after. It might look a little different. The gift of a long-term leader is continuity, and the gift of change is we can look at how we do things and ask if that’s what we should or want to do. It opens a lot of possibility.

Effort to ban sale of flavored tobacco, nicotine products fails State Senate committee rejects measure, moving issue back to local control BY JESSE PAUL AND SHANNON NAJMABADI THE COLORADO SUN
A heavily lobbied, bipartisan effort to ban the sale of flavored tobacco and nicotine products, including menthol cigarettes, in Colorado was rejected by a state Senate committee on May 10, punting the issue back to cities and counties. The Senate Appropriations Committee voted 5-2 to reject House Bill 1064, with Democratic Sens. Robert Rodriguez and Rachel Zenzinger joining the three Republicans on the committee in voting against the measure. The legislation, which was aimed at reducing teen tobacco and nicotine use, faced slim odds of becoming law due to opposition from Democratic Gov. Jared Polis, who said that he would prefer the issue to be regulated at the local level. The bill also was projected to siphon some $25 million annually from Polis’ fledgling free preschool program, a Polis campaign promise which is funded through taxes on tobacco and nicotine products. The demise of House Bill 1064 comes about 36 hours before Colorado’s 2022 legislative session ends. It also comes after the Biden ad-
ministration last month announced it would be trying to ban menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars. “Smoking in schools have been going on since before I was born,” Rodriguez said before voting “no” on the bill. “And I don’t know if this is going to stop that.” A number of cities and towns in Colorado have passed flavored nicotine and tobacco bans, but several mayors have requested state action because they say a patchwork of policies wouldn’t be effective. “It is not a prohibitive enough barrier if our youth are simply able to travel across Denver’s border to the nearest convenience store and obtain flavored tobacco products,” Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, who vetoed a flavored tobacco ban in the Mile High City last year, wrote in a letter explaining his thinking. State Rep. Kyle Mullica, a Federal Heights Democrat who was a prime sponsor of the bill, said the measure’s demise was “incredibly disappointing” and that he would continue to push for a ban on flavored tobacco and nicotine products. “We ran House Bill 1064 because we wanted to fight for the health of our communities and kids,” he said. “The science and data is on our side. This is an epidemic our state is facing.” He said the well-funded tobacco industry was, at least in part, responsible for the bill’s failure. They had “business on the line,” he said. “But when we look at policy

down here, I don’t know how we don’t put the health of our kids first.” Altria and another tobacco giant, Reynolds American, respectively spent $149,000 and $173,000 on lobbying in Colorado from July 2021 through the end of March. The national nonprofit Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, which was leading the charge to pass the bill, spent nearly $181,000 on lobbying
through the end of March. It had 25 lobbyists and lobbying firms working on the measure.

What’s in fentanyl ‘accountability and prevention’ bill? HB 1326 was contentious measure in Colorado General Assembly BY SHANNON NAJMABADI AND JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN
With just hours to spare in its 2022 lawmaking term, the Colorado legislature on May 11 sent House Bill 1326, the Fentanyl Accountability and Prevention Act, to Gov. Jared Polis to be signed into law. The contentious legislation, which was still being amended up until its passage, is lawmakers’ response to rising fentanyl overdose deaths in the state. More than 900 Coloradans died from a fentanyl overdose last year, according to state health department data, including four children under the age 1, and 35 people between the ages of 10 and 18. In 2020, 540 people died from a fentanyl overdose in Colorado. The bill would increase the penalties for possessing or distributing fentanyl and would pump tens of millions of dollars into efforts to prevent overdose deaths, as well as drug treatment and education campaigns. Polis has said he will sign the bill into law.
The Colorado Sun pored over the final version of measure to pull out the information you need to know: What is fentanyl and what’s the background of this bill? Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that’s 80 to 100 times more potent than morphine. It can be lethal in doses of about 2 or 3 milligrams. The drug was developed to help manage pain for cancer patients but has increasingly been illegally mixed with heroin and other drugs because of its potency and how cheap it is to produce. In fact, law enforcement says fentanyl has become ubiquitous and that it’s mixed into almost all street drugs now. Some drug users have said they consumed fentanyl unknowingly, thinking they were taking another substance. Authorities believe five people who died in a mass fentanyl overdose in Commerce City earlier this year thought they were consuming cocaine. A number of Colorado teens and young adults have died of fentanyl overdoses in recent years after consuming what they thought were prescription painkillers. House Bill 1326 comes after lawmakers passed a bill in 2019 that was signed into law by Polis that made it a misdemeanor to possess up to 4 grams of most drugs, including fen-

tanyl, for personal use. Law enforcement and Republicans have blasted the 2019 law, saying it is responsible for Colorado’s surging fentanyl overdose deaths, a claim rejected by harm reduction advocates. How would the bill change criminal penalties for possessing fentanyl? The bill would make possessing
between 1 gram and 4 grams of a fentanyl compound for personal use a Level 4 drug felony punishable by up to 180 days in jail and up to two years of probation. If someone is convicted of the offense a third or subsequent time, the sentence would go up to 364 days in jail. SEE FENTANYL, P26

which we must not turn away. Mental Health Colorado has been deeply engaged in supporting the recommendations of the behavioral health task force convened by Gov. Jared Polis in 2019. Task force recommendations have resulted in a series of bills designed to fill gaps in services all over the state, most recently with the help of $450 million in federal American Rescue Plan Act funding. This funding will enable us to build much-needed in-patient capacity — beds — for adults and youth. We will invest in recruiting and retaining our behavioral health workforce.

A 2021 Colorado Health Access Survey revealed that 38% of Coloradans over the age of 16 experienced a decline in mental health such as anxiety, depression, or loneliness, as the result of COVID-19. At the same time, Mental Health America ranked Colorado dead last in the nation for access to care for adults with mental health needs. The combination of declining well-being and poor access to resources has our community facing a crisis from
sources, and much more. These investments won’t solve all of Colorado’s problems, or solve anyone’s problems anytime soon, but they will eventually make a meaningful difference in the lives of many. In the meantime, how do we become more resourceful and resilient without contributing to the long wait lists for professional support? The scarcity of mental health care in our state leaves many of us to our own devices — as if this were an earlier era in history. In an age of heightened risk for suicide and harmful substance use, we must prioritize access to care and services SEE ATCHITY, P26

FENTANYL FROM PAGE 24
A fentanyl compound means a drug mixture with any amount of fentanyl in it. For instance, 4 grams of heroin combined with a few milligrams of fentanyl would be considered a fentanyl compound. Since fentanyl is ubiquitous in street drugs, experts say it’s likely that people arrested for possessing more than 1 gram of any drug could be charged with a felony. Those convicted of the Level 4 drug felony can have their convictions dropped to misdemeanors if they go through treatment. And they can have their criminal record sealed a few years after completing their sentence or completing probation. Possessing 1 gram or less of fentanyl or a fentanyl compound would remain a Level 1 drug misdemeanor. A person convicted for a fourth or subsequent time of possessing 1 gram or less of fentanyl or a fentanyl compound could be charged with a Level 4 drug felony punishable by between 6 months and two years in prison. The bill also would try to crack down on fentanyl dealers by raising the penalties for possessing the drug with an intent to distribute it. Here are the details: • Possessing between 4 grams and 50 grams of fentanyl or a fentanyl compound with an intent to distribute it would become a Level 2 drug felony punishable by a prison term of 4 to 16 years. • Possessing more than 50 grams of a fentanyl compound with an intent to distribute it a Level 1 drug felony punishable by a prison term of up to 32 years. • Other offenses become a Level 1 drug felony, punishable by a prison term of up to 32 years, if it leads to someone’s death, if the drugs originated from outside of Colorado, or if the person also possessed a pill press or other manufacturing equipment Would a person have to know

May 19, 2022 they were possessing fentanyl to be charged with a felony? This question is important because fentanyl is often mixed with other drugs. The answer is no, but they would have an opportunity to argue before a jury that they did not know they were in possession of fentanyl. If the jury sides with the defendant, the defendant’s charge would be reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor. Lawmakers likened the unique legal structure of the bill, a change that was made on the night of May 11, to Colorado’s crime-of-passion law, which allows someone charged with murder to argue the killing was unplanned in the hopes of prompting the jury to lower their sentence. An earlier version of the fentanyl bill would have required people to have known that they were in possession of fentanyl or a fentanyl compound before they could be charged with a felony for having more than 1 gram of the drug for personal use. Law enforcement and prosecutors were wary of that policy, saying it would make it very difficult to prosecute cases. Both law enforcement — who wanted to remove any option for people to prove they didn’t know they were in possession of fentanyl — and criminal justice activists were unhappy with where this section of the bill ended up. It was written this way to ensure its passage. Tom Raynes, executive director of the Colorado District Attorneys’ Council, called the finalized version of the provision a “challenging standard.” “We will adapt to the decision made by the legislature as they are the ones who make and are responsible for legislation and policy,” he said. “Our job is to enforce their decisions, and we will.”
tion program developed by the state. The law also would require that some people jailed on fentanyl-related charges be released with naloxone, an opioid reversal drug, or a prescription for other medication to help with opioid-use disorders. It would also give jails money to help provide medication-assisted treatment to their inmates.
What about the treatment side? Anyone convicted of a fentanyl-related offense would have to undergo a substance use assessment and, if appropriate, treatment. They would also have to take a fentanyl educa-
Where is the money going? House Bill 1326 would also allocate about $40 million next year toward trying to prevent fentanyl overdose deaths and toward responding to the opioid epidemic. The spending would include: • $6 million would be set aside next fiscal year, which starts July 1, for a harm-reduction grant program. Nonprofits, public health or tribal agencies, law enforcement, and various health care organizations could apply for grants, and the funding could be used for training about preventing overdoses and to helping divert people from the criminal justice system. • $19.7 million would be used to make a bulk purchase of naloxone. Under the bill, naloxone and other drugs to counter an opioid overdose could be dispensed through a variety of organizations, including libraries, colleges and universities, jails, probation departments and public health agencies. • $600,000 would be set aside to purchase tests to detect synthetic opiates. The idea is to help people determine if their drugs contain fentanyl and to prevent them from unknowingly consuming the opioid. • $10 million would be earmarked for treatment centers where people could stay to detox or stabilize if they’re in crisis. • The bill would create a grant program to help law enforcement agencies investigate deaths or serious injuries caused by synthetic opiates and for disrupting drug distribution. The bill doesn’t allocate money to the program; it’s subject to available money.

ment. The bill would require law enforcement agencies that respond to a suspected overdose to tell the district attorney’s office if an arrest was made. Those district attorney’s offices then must report when they don’t prosecute someone arrested in connection with a suspected overdose involving fentanyl. • $3 million would be set aside to help county jails meet a variety of new requirements under the bill, including providing medicationassisted treatment and providing them with a referral to a treatment provider upon their release. Is there anything else I should know about the bill? It would require a variety of studies and data-collection programs. Those include: • An independent study about the bill’s implementation • A study of how the internet is used for trafficking fentanyl and other illicit drugs • An independent study of the health effects of the bill’s criminal penalties Additionally, the bill would require that emergency medical providers, coroners and law enforcement officials participate in a state program mapping overdose deaths. The measure would also task a new Colorado Overdose Prevention Review Committee with reviewing drug-related overdoses and making policy recommendations to lawmakers. And the Department of Public Health and Environment would have to develop a statewide prevention and education campaign around fentanyl. The campaign could include TV, radio or digital advertisements, as well as a website with resources about fentanyl, criminal penalties tied to possession of the drug and the immunity granted to those who report an overdose.

Legislature passes HOA foreclosure reform bill Measure limits ability to penalize homeowners over covenant fines BY BRITTANY FREEMAN ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS
Colorado lawmakers passed a bill on May 9 aimed at protecting residents in disputes with their homeowners associations. House Bill 22-1137 limits HOAs from seeking foreclosure against homeowners who accumulate fines for violating community rules known as covenants. The bill also stops HOAs from assessing those penalties on a daily basis and limits them to $500. The legislation now heads to Gov. Jared Polis, whose office said he plans to sign it into law. “As it currently stands, Coloradans have little recourse and almost no protections when facing down the endless resources held by associations and the lawyers they may hire,” bill cosponsor Sen. James Coleman, D-Denver, told his colleagues at a committee hearing on May 6. The bill went through numerous changes after its first House committee hearing. Supporters said lawmakers removed a provision that would have limited the amount of legal fees that HOAs can charge residents in court cases but added provisions that specifically prohibited foreclosure on liens that only
contain fines or the costs of collecting them. Coleman said the changes were driven by hours of meetings with representatives of HOAs and their advocates. “We really took our time,” he said, “so that we ultimately make it so that our communities continue to be safe and beautiful, but at the same time folks aren’t losing their homes because they had weeds in their grass.” Coleman represents Green Valley Ranch, a community that has become the subject of months of publicity after one of the HOAs there filed dozens of foreclosure cases against residents in the past year. Rep. Naquetta Ricks, D-Aurora, was the bill’s initial sponsor. An analysis of court case data by Rocky Mountain PBS and ProPublica found that Colorado HOAs have filed at least 2,400 foreclosure cases against residents since 2018. HOAs in the state have the legal right to seek foreclosure against homeowners who are at the equivalent of six months behind on their routine dues, but that total can also include fees, fines and collection costs, such as legal fees. Many homeowners who faced foreclosure have told Rocky Mountain PBS and ProPublica that they ultimately ended up paying thousands of dollars more than their original debts to save their homes because the HOA billed them legal fees after they fell behind. Residents of one HOA community in Aurora, the Timbers Homeowners Association

I, told the news organizations that they were surprised to learn their HOA has filed 41 foreclosure cases since 2018. The newly passed legislation contains several measures that supporters said would give homeowners due process before delinquencies end up in court. It requires several notifications to residents about delinquencies and fines, requires those notices to be provided in the native language designated by homeowners and allows them the opportunity to seek longer payment plans of 18 months to repay debts to the HOA. Representatives from the HOA industry told lawmakers they opposed the legislation. They said it would make it harder to enforce their rules, especially when homeowners are defiant, and would push more costs onto others who are compliant. “This bill is going to harm the people who keep their promises and cause expenses for those people.

It’s been through so many different amendments and variations, and it’s still so messy,” testified Lindsay Smith, an HOA attorney who heads Colorado’s legislative action committee for the Community Associations Institute. The bill’s supporters said a provision that opens up small claims court as a venue for disputes could also make a big difference for homeowners who cannot afford to hire an attorney to fight their HOA. “The disputes that are creating all of the heat within HOAs finally have a place to go,” said Andrew Mowery, an HOA homeowner advocate whose group helped craft the original legislation.

Cherry Creek girls win 28th tennis title Cedeno completes perfect 14-0 season BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
It took some work but Cherry Creek captured its 28th girls state tennis championship on May 14 at the Gates Tennis Center in Denver. The Bruins went into the final morning of playback and championship matches of the three-day tournament with a slim 73-66 lead over Fairview. The Bruins advanced two singles and four doubles teams into the finals and four of those six title matches were against Fairview. There was a combined 12 team points available in those matches. Cherry Creek, the defending state champions, won three of the four head-tohead matches with Fairview and wound up collecting 17 points on the final day compared to three for the Knights. The Bruins ended with 90 points compared to 69 for runner-up Fairview. Mountain Vista came in fourth,with 80 points. Valor Christian was seventh, Heritage eighth and Regis Jesuit ninth. “It feels wonderful to win,” said Creek coach Christin Jacob. “I’d been hearing how strong Fairview was all season. I knew if wanted the title, we’d have to work for it. “It’s a tradition for years that has been set for our girls and that work ethic that was set is an example

I was more confident and playing better.” Jiselle Boker, the Bruins No. 3 singles player, rallied in the second set and downed Fairview’s Ellie Middleton 6-3, 7-5. “Fairview was our competition last year and this year too,” said Boker. “I played consistent. I was down 5-4 in the second set. It feels great to be a state champion. I’m excited.” Creek’s No. 1 doubles team of Vivienne Bersin and Victoria Moldovan outlasted Fairview’s Lizzy Roth and Virginia Gomulka in the title match, 6-3, 2-6, 7-6. The Knights’ lone victory over the Bruins came in the No. 2 doubles matchup when Jane Roth and Maya Brakhage downed Creek’s Farrah Bendell and Sayeesha Garud 1-6, 6-3, 6-4. Creek’s No. 3 doubles duo of Riley Loehr andSabrina Shama won a close straight set championship match and the No. 4 doubles team of Kate Erickson and Zoey Hao also claimed the state title.

Children sell cookies, lemonade and shaved ice as part of a fundraiser outside of Zari’s. The store often holds events for kids in the community on the weekends. COURTESY OF ZARI’S GROCERY
Grocery fills need for local shoppers Zari’s carries halal products, other hard-to-find goods BY RACHEL LORENZ SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
Zia and Shai Warraich want to bring the world to Colorado. In March, the new business owners opened Zari’s Grocery, a store specializing in international food and halal meat. Located two miles east of Interstate 25 on Arapahoe Road, the 1,500-square-foot establishment carries spices, snacks, meal kits and sweets from around the globe. The beef, chicken, lamb and goats butchered in the shop are halal, that is, prepared according to Islamic dietary laws. Zari’s Grocery offers oils, paneers, yogurts and fresh produce essential for Indian, Pakistani and Middle Eastern cuisines. “We want to bring that global home food taste here to the U.S.,” Shai Warraich told Colorado Community Media. A year and a half ago, the couple and their 7-year-old daughter Zari, for whom the store is named, relocated to Colorado for work. The idea to open a grocery store carrying
international items came soon after when they struggled to find their favorite foods in the area. Warraich is a nurse practitioner and her husband is an information technology professional in the health care industry. The family has moved around the country for their careers, which has given them the opportunity to interact with different communities in multiple states — and the opportunity to shop at multiple international stores over the years. In their experience, customer service, cleanliness and a wide variety of products is what elevates one grocery store over another. Already thinking about expansion, the Warraichs would love to carry more dry goods as well as increase inventory in the butcher shop to include bison, elk and camel. But right now space is a limiting factor because the store maintains separate butchering areas for each type of meat it works with, Warraich said. Her daughter is allergic to chicken and so eliminating crosscontamination is a priority. With backgrounds in health care, food safety protocols are important to the store owners. But so are their SEE GROCERY, P39
