Arapahoe County to redraw commissioner districts

9-member board chosen

Arapahoe County’s commissioners have given approval to a process that will redraw their own boundaries, meaning constituencies could change. e commissioners have tasked a nine-member Citizens Redistricting Advisory Committee to lead the process, which begins this month.

By law, Colorado counties must redraw commissioner district boundaries every 10 years, in line with new population data. Because of delays in 2020 Census information, Colorado’s legislators granted counties extra time to complete redistricting.

Residents, Centennial Airport o cials ask for feedback

FAA attends meeting

BY TAYLER SHAW TSHAW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Residents demanding changes at Centennial Airport expressed frustration and confusion, mainly with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), during the airport’s Jan. 4 community noise roundtable meeting.

Nearly 20 people spoke during the public comment portion of the meeting, expressing similar concerns as residents did during the December meeting about increased air tra c, noise and lead pollution from aircraft fuel.

“We knew when we purchased our home that there was an airport nearby, and that didn’t bother us,” said Nathan Winger, who moved to the Sundance Hills neighborhood in Greenwood Village about a year ago.

“I remember standing in the backyard during the inspection of our home and commenting to our Realtor that it’s pretty quiet here,” he said. “It wasn’t until a couple of months ago that I really began to notice the additional noise and the additional ights.”

Some residents have formed a group, “Quiet Skies Over Arapahoe County,” to advocate for changes to be made to address safety and noise concerns. e group has a website, bit.ly/quietskies, that includes links to YouTube videos of aircraft ying over homes.

During her public comment, Audra Dubler, a leader of the resident group, said the FAA’s silence has been “deafening.”

Members of the Centennial Airport Community Noise Roundtable, which aims to work with the airport to reduce and mitigate the impact of aircraft noise, highlighted the need for FAA involvement during their December meeting.

U.S. Rep. Jason Crow and U.S. Sens. Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper signed a letter in December encouraging the FAA to attend the monthly meetings in person.

However, the two FAA representatives present at the January meeting attended virtually.

Leslie Lardie, senior advisor to the FAA’s regional administrator of the northwest mountain region, said she is based in Washington state and will not be able to come out due to travel restrictions.

Michael Valencia, general manager of the FAA Denver District, said he was unable to attend in person because he was working in Florida at the time.

He said he will attend in person at the next noise roundtable meeting, which is scheduled for Feb. 1 at 6:30 p.m. at the airport, 7565 S. Peoria St.

Did the aircraft tra c patterns change?

During the January meeting, a few people said ight patterns had changed due to two planes colliding in midair over the Cherry Creek State Park area in May 2021, leading to more aircraft tra c above neighborhoods. ey asked if this change can be undone.

Valencia disagreed that there has been a pattern change.

“ ere has been no literal change of a tra c pattern at Centennial,” Valencia said. “I’m in charge of all air tra c control for this Denver district, and I never, ever, made any decision or direction to change (the) tra c pattern for Centennial after the midair collision.”

However, Valencia said the FAA did change “an operating procedure” to help prevent collisions, saying the administration essentially adjusted how it separates planes that are on the parallel runways.

In a Dec. 16 letter, Grady Stone, the regional administrator of the FAA’s northwest mountain region, said that following the midair collision, air tra c controllers “were directed to use more active control when managing pattern tra c with arriving aircraft.”

Centennial Airport Executive Director and CEO Mike Fronapfel previously told Colorado Community Media that after the collision, the FAA Control Tower changed how it manages the pattern of tra c, now sequencing the aircraft as they come in on parallel runways. is change was to enhance safety, but it also resulted in “more aircraft ying out over the neighborhoods.”

Chris ompson, the public information o cer and manager of communications at Centennial Airport, con rmed in a Dec. 20 email that one of the changes the FAA made was extending the ight pattern for

Runway 17R/35L.

“ e general consensus is that the midair collision was the deciding factor to extending the ight pattern for the touch-and-go runway,” ompson wrote. “ is results in more of a staggered operation on the runways (i.e. plane lands on 17R and then next plane is on 17L) instead of concurrent landings.”

Regarding the discussion on whether the ight patterns changed, Fronapfel said in an email on Jan. 5 that he thinks it’s a matter of semantics.

“When the FAA directed the controllers to ‘use more active control when managing pattern tra c with arriving aircraft’ it e ectively results in more instances where the tra c pattern will be extended,” Fronapfel said in the email.

Fronapfel said, from the FAA’s perspective, the tra c pattern “is always subject to expanding or contracting based on several factors” such as the number of planes in the pattern, spacing of the aircraft and sequencing of pattern tra c with arriving aircraft to the parallel runway.

He expects to learn more during the Feb. 1 meeting, “when we hopefully get their response to our questions and they present information on how they are ‘more actively managing/controlling the tra c pattern,’” Fronapfel wrote.

Airport leadership asks FAA three questions

In Stone’s Dec. 16 letter, he said that if the FAA is asked to attend a meeting to provide technical information and responses to questions, then the administration requests “that a maximum of three questions be submitted in writing no less than 30 days in advance of the meeting.”

Fronapfel sent a letter Dec. 31 to Stone, Lardie and Valencia with three questions the airport would like to have answered either before or during the Feb. 1 meeting.

He noted the questions were compiled through participation of airport leadership and sta , the noise roundtable, the City of Greenwood Village and community members.  e rst question states residents north of Arapahoe Road are “severely impacted by the increase in aircraft over their homes due to the extended tra c pattern implemented after the midair collision.”

Representatives of the Centennial Airport Community Noise Roundtable listen to Centennial City Councilmember Candace Moon during the Jan. 4 meetin.

It asks if the FAA considered the environmental impact on residents as a result of the change, and if the administration met its National Environmental Policy Act obligations “before changing how the tra c pattern is managed at Centennial Airport.”

e second question explained that Stone’s letter said tra c patterns cannot be con ned based on noise abatement. It asks what criteria can be used by the FAA or Centennial Airport now to con ne the pattern area or limit how many aircraft are in the tra c pattern at once.

e nal question explains safety concerns have been expressed by the community and by ight schools “that are being directed to extend the tra c pattern over the residential areas.”

“Because of the new procedure, the pattern is extended so frequently that their students aren’t getting su cient training on ying a nonextended pattern,” the letter states. “ is becomes a safety concern if the student is expected to y a normal pattern at other airports and they are unable to stay ahead of the aircraft while transitioning to and from their landing or departure.”

It also notes another safety concern, which is that pilots have limited options in an emergency for safely landing their aircraft when they y over dense residential areas, which may mean “that now it’s more likely a midair collision could occur over a neighborhood.”

“In our opinion having an extended pattern doesn’t enhance the safety of the operations when there has been one midair accident in over 16.2 million operations at Centennial Airport. Were these factors considered by the FAA prior to the change and if not can they be considered?” the letter states.

During the meeting, Lardie said the FAA is currently working on a response to the questions.

FAA removes three-question limitation

During the public comment portion of the meeting, one resident asked the FAA for clari cation about its request that a maximum of three questions be submitted, wondering who the questions should come from and if the community is permitted to ask three questions as well.

“I’m not sure where that came from,” Lardie said. “We do answer all the questions that come through. ere’s, as far as I know, there’s never been a limit.”

Fronapfel explained what people were referencing was Stone’s letter that said to only submit three questions at a time.

In response, Lardie said she now understood the reference and that it takes time to answer questions, as the FAA does a thorough analysis before responding.

“So that’s why we limit those large questions to three, because they do take time,” she said.

She said the questions should come from the noise roundtable, since “how we communicate to the community is through this roundtable.”

e response created some confu-

sion and concern for a few members of the roundtable.

Brad Pierce, the chair of the roundtable, asked if they would have to wait until February to submit questions, since Fronapfel already submitted questions Dec. 31, meaning people may have to wait until March for answers if the response time is 30 days.

“ e red tape, to be honest, is just going to take forever to get the response to all the questions that everybody has,” Pierce said.

Lardie said Pierce can collect and send to her all the questions the noise roundtable and community has, removing the limitation of three questions. However, she said the FAA cannot guarantee that all questions will be answered within 30 days.

Pierce said a process was needed to send questions to Lardie, to which resident Audra Dubler volunteered to collect community questions to send to Pierce.

Lardie asked that Fronapfel review the questions Pierce receives rst, to determine if any questions can be answered by the airport, before the questions are then sent to the FAA.

“I am very bothered that the FAA is saying that they will only take questions from this roundtable,” said Centennial City Councilmember Candace Moon, a member of the noise roundtable. “You should not limit the acceptance of questions only from a roundtable of people who are listening to constituents.” ]

The push for FAA’s in-person attendance

A few residents expressed frustration that the FAA representatives were not in person at the meeting to have a dialogue with them.

Moon said when she rst joined the roundtable, there was an FAA representative who attended every monthly meeting.

“And that has slowly dropped o to no representation,” she said.

Valencia said he received his rst invitation to the roundtable meeting last month, which he attended virtually.

“I not only empathize but sympathize with noise, and want to hear more about it and see what this great organization of the FAA can do to support this city and the airport authority … and the processes that are available to mitigate these issues,” Valencia said.

He said there are more than 30,000 private airports with public access to them throughout the United States.

“For us, as the agency, to address every single noise issue at over 30,000 airports is just unreasonable. We just can’t do it. But we can take certain airports that are unique, like Centennial, and hopefully partner and continue to work together,” he said. “You have my commitment to do that. I look forward to seeing you all on Feb. 1.”

Moon said she looks forward to the meeting. She thinks the FAA’s physical presence will do a lot to assure residents that the FAA is working on their behalf.

“I know that everybody wants a solution quick. is is not anything that’s going to happen quickly. It has to be done very thoroughly,” Moon said. “But it’s not like it’s gonna be put on the back burner and nothing happens, because we understand the urgency that you have in getting this resolved.”

Colorado is launching a full-frontal assault on its 38% job gap – that’s the di erence between job openings and actual hires. e state is changing its approach to ll its highdemand, often better-paying jobs, targeting millions of dollars in grant opportunities for businesses to train or upskill workers.

e gargantuan task means enticing many people already in the workforce into further training or education and targeting historically untapped groups with more training and education.

“We need to be doing more to help connect Coloradans, our homegrown talent with skills that lead to good-paying jobs and careers,” said Gov. Jared Polis.

How bad is the gap? is summer there were 208,000 job openings compared to 129,000 hires, according to the ninth annual Talent Pipeline Report, which analyzes and explains labor market information, shifts in job demand, top jobs and the state strategy to ll those jobs.

e report is produced by the state agency the Colorado Workforce Development Council in partnership with a number of other state agencies.

Colorado is just one of 14 states with more jobs than before the pandemic-induced recession. But it also ranks 11th in the country for the number of people voluntarily quitting their jobs.

It’s not just the 3.6% unemployment rate

Historically Colorado has relied on importing highly educated people to ll jobs. at won’t work anymore. In-state migration is slowing, a high school population is

expected to plateau and then drop due to declining birth rates, and the workforce is aging. e lack of affordable childcare has led to a drop in women’s participation in the labor force.

at means the state needs to change its approach to getting people into top jobs through alternative pathways at any stage of life: folks in

their 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s, many of whom are already in the workforce.

“We know that a four-year degree isn’t the right path for every person and every job for many,” Polis said at the report’s release. “It’s apprenticeships, on-the-job learning, technical or community college education, dual and concurrent enrollment in high school and many other pathways.”

Colorado currently has 250,000 adults without a high school diploma, 600,000 people with some college and no degree, 45,000 students who left K-12 over the past three years, and hundreds of thousands who already have a diploma, credential or a degree but need a chance to upskill in this new labor market, the report said.

The current retraining cycle is often too slow and skilled talent is needed more quickly than education and training programs can produce. Further, the cost of traditional college and training programs are unaffordable for many.

First, what are Colorado’s top jobs?

“Top Jobs” are in high demand and they provide a living wage. There are 178 occupations in top jobs, including computers, business and finance, engineering, farming, installation and repair, legal, transportation and moving and health care, among others.

Many of the occupations that fell off the “Top Jobs” list this year because the wages didn’t keep

and giving credit for prior learning. Over the next two years, it will develop more ‘stackable credential’ programs in high-demand industries. ose are sequential postsecondary degrees or certi cates that allow workers to progress in a career. One state law includes $25 million for reskilling and upskilling workers to earn a short-term credential.

Another higher education goal is to have 100 percent of the state’s degree programs have some early work-based learning experiences.

pace with inflation are in critical fields such as direct care (nursing homes), health care, and education.

The most job postings in Colorado last year were heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers, followed by registered nurses and software developers.

The vast majority of top jobs require some type of post-secondary education and increasing numbers are linked to apprenticeships.

What’s the strategy to close labor market gaps?

Over the past two years, Colorado has invested nearly $650 million into higher education and workforce development. That includes money to help students earn a postsecondary credential in high school, free adult training, appren-

ticeships and industry-focused training in key areas like health care, mental health, education and energy.

But now the state is also focusing intensively on giving learners the chance to earn credentials and degrees at any stage of life. It also means connecting historically under-tapped groups, such as newcomers to the country, aging workers and those with disabilities to rapidly growing industries.

Research from the U.S. Department of Labor shows people with disabilities can o er companies a competitive edge, reduce turnover, boost productivity, and improve company culture.

On the education side, the state is placing more e ort into boosting work-related learning like apprenticeships at all levels of education

“We have students who get three years into a discipline and then decide, ‘Wait! Why am I doing nance? I don’t even like numbers!’” said Angie Paccione, director of the Colorado Department of Higher Education. “We want to make sure they get some early career experience so they can make better-informed choices.”

Other laws would grant an associate’s degree to people who have earned at least 70 credit hours in college.

“ is program has a potential to serve more than 700,000 Coloradans who have attained some college, but no degree,” said McKennie.

At the high school level, one goal is to create a system where students graduate with a diploma but also a two-year degree or industry credential that can lead to a good job.

Finally, the state will focus on the quality of work, educating employers in retention and productivity strategies.

As another year begins, so do some new state laws. And 2023 has a major one that will hit many workers’ paychecks almost immediately.

Paid family leave, which Colorado voters approved in 2020, will cost roughly $4.33 per week for a worker who makes $50,000 a year. In return, that worker will be eligible for up to 12 weeks (or 16 weeks for complicated births) starting in 2024. is

new costs of being employed

isn’t a vacation fund, but kind of an emergency fund that will provide workers paid time o to have a baby or take care of sick loved ones or themselves.

“Starting in 2024, this is going to cover pretty much all employers in Colorado with a very small number of carve outs that were in the statute. All employees would be eligible for up to 12 weeks per year,” said Tracy Marshall, division director of the Family and Medical Leave Insurance Program, or FAMLI. “ is is an annual bene t. It’s not a once-in-a lifetime bene t.”

Keep in mind, companies and workers are paying into the program this year so that there will be money

to support family or medical leave next year. e expectation? e FAMLI fund will have $1.3 billion in contributions by the end of 2023.

What’s Working covered the details of the how the law will impact companies in an earlier column, but here’s a quick recap:

For employees: For a worker who earns $50,000 a year, here’s what the contribution is, according to the state Department of Labor and Employment:

• $4.33 — Employee’s weekly payroll deduction, or $225.16 a year.

• $4.33/$225.16 — Employer’s payment for the employee, though companies can be generous and cover the employee’s portion, too.

For companies: For a company with 10 employees (smaller companies aren’t required to participate) who all earn $50,000 a year, that comes out to:

• $4,503.20 — is is the employer’s annual contribution. Half of this can be deducted from workers’ paychecks.

• Companies with existing plans can opt out but their paid-leave plans must be approved.

e bene ts: Starting in 2024, here’s what that same $50,000-wage worker will get paid if they take leave:

• $750.88 — Weekly bene t for the worker. at’s about 80% of the worker’s regular pay. Bene ts are based on wages. e maximum is $1,100 a week. e bene t is paid by the state, not through the employer,

so workers must apply through the state portal.

It’s also not just for new parents. Paid leave will provide a temporary bene t for Coloradans who need to take care of their sick loved ones or even themselves. It’s a bene t that an estimated 2.7 million workers could be eligible for. Roughly 216,000 employers need to register with the state’s program and the rst payments are due April 30.

On average, wages in Colorado have increased 8.5% in one year. But that’s the average hourly wage. For minimum wage earners, that’s going up too — by 9%, or the rate of in ation for the rst half of the year, which is what the state uses to calculate the annual cost of living change.

In Colorado, minimum wage is moving to $13.65 an hour on Jan. 1 from $12.56. In Denver, it jumps to $17.29 an hour from $15.87.

For comparison, here is how Colorado’s average hourly earnings have grown by month, according to data from the state Department of Labor: Tipped workers are getting an 11% increase to $14.27 an hour in Denver.

New Family Planning

Like most things in life, starting a family is scary. Things like having a healthy baby and spouse, providing the necessities, money, and the general unknown are all things that fly through our heads. One of the largest concerns new families have is “Who takes care of my child if me and my spouse are gone? How does that happen? How do I know they will be safe and provided for? Is my family the best fit?” All these questions are questions that Davis Schilken, PC is equipped and prepared to answer for!

Many people will say things like “Oh my family is going to take my kids if something happens to us.” The question remains – HOW is that going to happen? Simply declaring that to another individual or individuals does not ensure your wishes are met. The last thing we want to happen with an untimely death is our children falling to the Foster Care System. The best way to ensure your family is properly planned for is by doing just that, planning. Consider things like:

• Establishing an effective Will or Trust

• Having Powers of Attorney drafted for times of incapacity

• Naming a Guardian and Conservator over your little ones

• Properly designating beneficiaries of your assets

• Effective communication between those that advise you (Financial Advisors, CPAs, Attorneys)

These planning tools can ensure that your family and children are properly taken care of in the event of your disability or death.

Don’t let these changes negatively affect your Estate Plans. Let’s make sure we all remain on the same page. With a properly established and funded Estate Plan, we can ensure that you have the ability to give what you want, to whom you want, when you want, the way you want. During that process we can help

Estate planning is never about how much you have, but how much you care about what you have.

Colorado considers changing its Red Flag Law

BY MARKIAN HAWRYLUK KAISER HEALTH NEWS

A Nov. 19 shooting that killed ve people and wounded 19 at a Colorado Springs nightclub has o cials considering changes to strengthen Colorado’s red ag law, particularly in self-declared “Second Amendment sanctuaries,” where emergency petitions to remove a person’s guns are led less frequently and usually denied.

e three-year-old state law allows law enforcement o cials or family

members to seek a court order to seize the guns of a person who poses a threat to themselves or others. But the Club

Q shooting underscores a fundamental challenge for it and other red ag laws: Sheri s often refuse to use the measures based on a belief that they infringe on the Second Amendment’s right to bear arms.

El Paso County, where the Colorado Springs shooting happened, is one such place. It has the lowest approval rate for initial court petitions led under the law of any county in Colorado where

more than three cases have been led, according to a KHN analysis of court records. Now Colorado lawmakers, like those in other states that have experienced mass shootings in recent years, will try to turn angst over the incident into legislative action to strengthen the state’s red ag law, including potentially expanding the pool of people who can petition for a protection order.

Soon after the arrest of Anderson Lee Aldrich, the man accused of the Club Q shooting, reports surfaced of a previous incident in which he surrendered to police after threatening to blow up his mother’s home with a homemade bomb.

of 104 initial petitions, or nearly 88%. Violence prevention advocates attributed El Paso County’s low approval rate to several factors. Among them, the county declared itself a Second Amendment sanctuary county in opposition to the red ag law, and El Paso County Sheri Bill Elder has been adamant sheri ’s o cials won’t seek any protection orders, “unless exigent circumstances exist.”

So far, the only two petitions led by law enforcement in the county were sought by the Colorado Springs Police Department.

If you don’t have a K-Lawn Dealer in your area, we are looking to add a few quality dealers to our 10-state network. Key benefits include:

• Earn up to $100,000 annually, or $50,000 over just the summer

• Lowest industry Franchise cost

• Manage your own lawn fertilization, weed and insect control business

• Part-time or full-time, you decide and manage your own schedule

• Income stability for your family

According to e Associated Press, court transcripts show that the judge who dismissed the case said in a hearing that the defendant had been stockpiling weapons and explosives, was “clearly” planning a shootout, and that he needed mental health treatment. Neither the family nor law enforcement sought an extreme risk protection order to ensure Aldrich didn’t have access to guns, leading to questions about whether November’s shooting could have been prevented if they had.

Colorado’s red ag law, passed in 2019, has been used more than 350 times, with initial petitions for protection orders being granted in nearly 2 in 3 cases.

Judges in El Paso County approved 11 out of 53 initial petitions, just over 20%, through Nov. 22. Although El Paso County is the most populous county in Colorado, about twice as many petitions were led in Denver County, the next largest. ere, judges approved 91

Analyses of red ag laws across the country show law enforcement o cials are much more successful when they le petitions than when relatives or roommates of the person in question do.

“ e ones that are petitioned for by law enforcement were approved more than 90% of the time, whereas the ones that are petitioned by family members, cohabitants, or parents were approved less than a third of the time,” said Dr. Chris Knoepke, a gun safety researcher with the University of Colorado’s Firearm Injury Prevention Initiative.

It’s unclear why law enforcement’s batting average is higher. It may be that police are more familiar with the legal requirements for processing and don’t make simple mistakes that can sink a petition. Law enforcement may also have easier access to legal help in ling, and judges may consider law enforcement o cials more credible than family members.

e board unanimously adopted the budget with 26 amendments to the proposed budget on Dec. 6.

Senior Budget Analyst Leanna Quint presented some of these amendments at the meeting, includ-

from county residents.

ey also will consider “communities of interest,” which could include school districts, cities, home owners associationss and/or other groups that have common interests, according to Baker.

Based on the committee’s recommendations, county sta ers will create maps for public review and comment.

Commissioners will approve an of-

ing appropriating funds from the general fund for one-time transition costs for the new public health department and a detention center expansion project, among other appropriations.

e adopted budget shows a $2 million operating surplus, which is higher than the $1.6 million surplus in the budget proposed in October. e increase is because of adjustments to revenue on the expenditure side of the budget, according to Weaver.

e main di erence between the 2022 and 2023 budgets, according to Weaver, is that $1.5 million of operating surplus is set aside each year to help facilitate the transition of the public health department and the

If boundaries change so that a commissioner no longer resides in the district they represent, they will continue representing their original district until the next election in 2024.

Voters will also be noti ed if their district boundaries have changed, Baker added.

“I think this is yet another way for people to become involved in their

upcoming transition of the judicial district.

Starting in 2025, Arapahoe County will be the only county in Colorado’s

governmental process, when we go around and we have community outreach in every one of the districts,” he said. “It’s not just relying only on the subject matter experts — we’re getting community feedback on this.”

With the departure of Douglas, Arapahoe and Adams eventually decided to go their own ways as well.

e department also provides nurse home visits, immunizations, birth and death certi cates, tobacco use-prevention resources, mental health resources and harm reduction services including syringe exchange for sterile injection equipment, according to the department’s website.

e county agency is also receiving state funding for a COVID response team made up of 40 temporary employees. ese individuals work as part of the Emergency Preparedness and Response Program, which provides resources regarding safety concerns and planning for various emergencies.

In addition to these programs, the department administers the Nutrition for Women, Infants, Children (WIC) program, which pro-

vides free nutritious foods and nutrition education to pregnant, breastfeeding and postpartum women, infants and young children.

omassen Davis, a nurse practitioner at the department, said she was excited to continue providing sexual health services as she did when she previously worked at Tri-County. Arapahoe County’s sexual health clinics will provide birth control and testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections.

“It’s really exciting to be able to keep doing that work for Arapahoe County, because I know there’s need,” she said. “We have a great group of nurse practitioners and they do an amazing job.”

Davis is one of 150 employees who applied to the Arapahoe department from Tri-County, according to Arapahoe County Communications Manager Chris Henning.

e department’s services are provided at locations in Greenwood Village, Engle-

wood and two in Aurora.

Loose ends and goals

As the public health department kicks o , Ludwig said there are a few loose ends left to tie up as the sta transitions to the mindset of a new department.

“All systems are new, everybody needed to be issued a laptop,” she said. “It’s changing from one platform to another… what most people are used to using is all brand new.”

She added that the county worked closely with Douglas and Adams counties during the transition. She said the department will have to spend some time solidifying their new phone system and software. She also expects improvements in internal communications.

“We’re spread across four facilities in the county,” she said. “How do we best communicate with one another? What’s the most e ective and e cient way of sitting around the table and shar-

ing what we know and what we learned?”

e department is also seeking to engage with the community. With integrity, equity, engagement and inclusivity as some of their guiding principles, Ludwig said the department will focus on being available and responsive to community needs.

Shawn Davis, one of ve members of Arapahoe County’s Foundational Board of Health, said a lot of communities felt they didn’t have input in the TriCounty Health Department because of the way it was organized.

“So many times, we focus on the underserved and we go in and we do focus groups, we do key informant interviews, but we really don’t seek to learn from the community,” he said at the grand opening. “I think if we’re going to make Arapahoe County — not just public health better, but the county as a whole — we have to do a better job of

Budgete county’s new health department budget was approved at $21 million by County Commissioners last month.

According to Ludwig, 70% of the budget is made of up contracts and grants. Now that the department is ocial, her team will compare the grants and contracts they have received with the estimates they made to build the budget. She said county health has the ability to go back to the Board of Health if amendments are necessary.

ere are also some grant applications the department is waiting to hear back on and some vacancies they are hoping to ll. As these loose ends get tied up, the department will continue ne-tuning its numbers.

“We have to plug in the numbers and adjust and it’s going to be ne tuning throughout the year,” she said. “Hopefully by the time we’re budgeting for next year, we have a better sense of what our public health budget looks like.”

As the department gets into full swing, its leaders recognize that there may be some challenges along the way.

“We all acknowledge that building this will not be easy, but each of you will make a positive di erence,” Board of Health member Bebe Kleinman said to the employees at the grand opening.

But even if there are bumps in the road, the department’s team believes it will be a success.

“We’re going to give ourselves the permission and the room to experiment,” Ludwig said at the opening. “We’re going to try new things, or we’re going to do old things in a new way... And if we fall, we will get back up, and we will assess what didn’t go right and we will do it until we y.”

Douglas County, Adams County and Arapahoe County have all gone separate ways with operating health departments. SHUTTERSTOCK IMAGE

VOICES

Love, support and sports

About two weeks ago I was thinking about writing a column about organized sports and our youth. en, I watched the NFL game between the Bu alo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals and decided it was a good idea with a little more power to it.

EDITOR’S COLUMN

Sometimes sports gets a bad rap. No, not everyone is made to be an athlete. But no matter where my sons end up going in their futures, I do not doubt for a second the skills, abilities and interactions will help shape whatever they do.

Before getting to my son’s own experiences, I want to start with what happened in Cincinnati when Buffalo’s defensive back Damar Hamlin su ered a freak accident while tackling receiver Tee Higgins. I am a major football fan so I rarely miss a game. Not surprisingly, I was watching the game live. I watched Hamlin pop up right after the tackle and then fall to the ground.

Based on player reactions and tears I knew it was far more than the concussion our minds usually go to. What came after the life-saving measures on the eld were why I still believe in humanity and organized sports.

You had two teams know they could not go on and play a game because a player’s life was more important. You had a nation, love or hate football, rooting for this man to survive. You had well wishes, strong support and a toy drive receive millions in donations in Hamlin’s name.

When you play sports, you get another family. ey become part of your everyday lives and you play for and support each other.

My 9-year-old started playing his rst year of competitive hockey this year. He loves the sport and shows a lot of passion for learning the game and getting better.

When he rst started, his team, in the 10-and-under Arapahoe Warriors league, was hard to watch. ey are learning the sport and we were losing a lot. We as parents were in the stands every game being supportive but worried when we were losing by six or more goals.

Fast forward a few months and this team is now winning regularly. ey are supporting each other, pushing each other and I see the improvement in my son’s play and that of others on the team. He is proud of what they are doing every week.

Having him also be proud of himself is nice to see. He is making friends, he is learning from a wonderful coaching sta , and he is gaining principles and skills that will carry him beyond hockey in the future.

As much of a bad rap as sports teams can get — I can never replace the friendships my son is earning. I can’t beat the support and friendships I am making with the parents in the stands. I know all of them care about my son and cheer him on in each game.

With sports, too, comes emotion. Hamlin is a great example. On Jan. 8, every team in the NFL wore shirts in support of Hamlin. ey showed vulnerability in talking about the rare incident that caused him to go into cardiac arrest suddenly.

Love, support and growth are what we all want to have in our lives. For Hamlin, NFL athletes and my son as he takes this journey forward — I do love the often overlooked positives of joining a sports program.

New year, new plans, new attitudes

plans are solid and our attitude is good and positive, maybe we could take one last look at our plans and give ourselves a check-up from the neck up to try and identify any blind spots we may have missed.

WINNING

No matter where you are in the world, this week o ers us all the opportunity to enter the new year with a new plan and a new attitude. Even if we believe we have the right plan and a great attitude, there could be room for a little improvement raising the bar for ourselves and those around us. What if we could make the slightest incremental improvements to our existing plans and our outlook? I think you would agree that we would experience even greater results. ese past couple of months have kept us busy with clients and internally with business planning, writing sales plans, prospecting plans, training plans, new onboarding plans, and working with clients and friends on creating and building vision boards that help provide visual reminders of our goals and what we expect the new year to bring. And if we forget or fail to plan, this old quote often attributed to Benjamin Franklin still holds true all these years later, “By failing to plan, you are preparing to fail.”

Now some of us might be thinking that our plans are just ne, and our attitude is exactly where it needs to be. Whenever I hear this, I am reminded of something my great uncle Harry would always say, “ ere is nothing so good it couldn’t be better, and nothing so bad that it couldn’t get worse.” So, even if we believe our

When it comes to planning, I am a big advocate of using a planning tool. I am a little biased to the Ziglar Performance Planner as it is an annual planner that helps me not only manage my days and meetings, but it also helps me to plan out my goals for the year and track those goals each and every day. It also contains some of Zig’s most famous motivational quotes, and when I read those each day, it de nitely inspires me, and ensures my attitude is in the right place as I glance at those words of wisdom throughout my day. If you aren’t using one, I would highly recommend that you nd one that works for you and your schedule.

How do we develop and maintain a positive attitude in a world that can sometimes feel so negative? at is a question I receive from many of you throughout the year. And here at the beginning of the year is the perfect time to take control of our own attitude regardless of what the world throws our way. Setting our foundation upon an attitude that starts with gratitude. It’s really di cult to slip into a negative head space when we are grateful for everything we have and everyone in our circle of friends and family.

Colorado to shut down all state-run COVID-19 testing sites

BY MATT BLOOM COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO

Anyone looking for a free COVID-19 test in Colorado will have a few less options starting on Jan. 15.  e Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment says it plans to shutter its 20 remaining community testing sites on that date due to a shift in demand among residents to at-home tests. e drive-thru and walk-in sites at parks and schools – once overwhelmed at the height of the pandemic – have been operating at less than 6 percent capacity since November.

e move comes in the middle of peak respiratory illness season. But o cials involved in the announcement stressed that COVID tests would remain widely available through other means.

“Coloradans have transitioned away from relying on large community testing sites and toward testing at home,” said Scott Bookman, the state’s COVID-19 incident commander, in a news release. “With this transition, the state is focusing e orts on the testing distribution methods Coloradans currently use most and providing testing resources to those who need them most.”

isn’t just about gratitude alone, we also must be careful of what we allow to enter our minds. Again, here at the beginning of the year it is a fantastic time to create a reading calendar for the year of the good books that we want to read, books that inspires us and that keep us grounded. It’s a great time to nd the podcasts that are lled with powerful and positive information that can motivate and challenge us to grow in mind, body, and spirit.

How about you? Is the new year the right time to reevaluate your plans?

For the past 20 years, talk of addressing mental health issues within the health care industry circled around without much emphasis. at’s beginning to change, and it’s starting with the ne arts.

At the Colorado Resiliency Arts Lab at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, a team of doctors, therapists and literary scholars are doing just that: exploring how the ne arts can help nurses, doctors, surgeons and other healthcare workers heal from trauma.

The numbers

e team found that creative arts therapy not only decreases anxiety, feelings of burnout and depression, but also helps keep medical workers in their eld.

e study, published in the American Journal of Medicine in 2022 found that anxiety, depression, total PTSD and emotional exhaustion measurement scores decreased by 27.8%, 35.5%, 25.8% and 11.6%, respectively.

Katherine Reed, an art therapist for the program, said that 12% saw a reduction in the desire to leave the profession.

“It’s amazing in how basic it really is, and yet it’s creating these incredible results,” Reed said.

The program

Dr. Marc Moss, a doctor who is part of the CORAL team, said the program received funding from the National Endowment for the Arts in 2019 to prove the value of the ne arts, after the National Endowment for the Arts requested proposals to show Congress that art was worth the money spent.

“It’s easy to say, ‘Wow, it’s great having a symphony’ or ‘It’s great having parks and etc.,’ but what’s the value of that?’” Moss said. “ ey wanted to have more scienti c evidence.”

From the results of the study, CORAL did just

that. e program o ers group art therapy cohorts to healthcare workers to help them process their day-to-day lives.

It’s a 12-week program with weekly 90-minute sessions with between eight to 15 participants. Each session is guided by a creative arts therapist.

CORAL o ers art, music, dance and writing therapy with hopes to add drama therapy in the near future.

Reed explained that art intrinsically creates community, helps the healing process and connects people. ose characteristics are key to helping people overcome their trauma.

She said a reason burnout remains prevalent is due to the way humans isolate themselves and avoid conversations and expressions about what happened. In the group sessions, participants can show each other they aren’t alone and validate each others’ experiences.

Historically, she said, art was the basis of expression and commu-

nication. Egyptian Hieroglyphics morphed into language.

Over the course of her 20-year career as an art therapist, Reed said she has a front-row seat to the limitations of language on expression, especially in children. Children — and adults — may lack the words or rhetoric to describe their experiences or their feelings, and music, painting, drama and other forms of art can act as a backdoor to expressing those feelings.

“(Children) can show you with sound and music what it feels like in their brain to remember the impact,” Reed said. “It’s a way of communicating that bypasses language. When we talk, we’re constantly ltering our words.”

It deepens the healing and clients don’t need to know how to draw, play an instrument or act out. It’s about interpreting your own symbols, song lyrics and paint color choices to nd meaning.

Common causes

Witnessing trauma like death, injury, illness and medical ethical dilemmas are all themes that come up in the workshops. In medical school, classes don’t necessarily exist to teach students

how to deal with it.

“You get into real-life medicine and suddenly (there are) personalities, narratives, stories and family members you’re not necessarily equipped to manage. You know how to transplant that heart, but do you know how to manage the mother’s panic or the father’s anger?” Reed said.

Another root cause can be the American healthcare system in general. Reed said doctors may need to see 20 patients in one day, which limits the time to actually talk with them since then they need to document those appointments.

at leads to longer hours and less time with loved ones, making it harder to nd a work-life balance.

A lack of emotional learning for healthcare workers also hints at a broader issue at hand in general. Many parallels exist between healthcare workers and students, who may not know how to express or manage their own feelings, Reed said.

rough art therapy and CORAL, healthcare workers can learn to manage those feelings. Not only for their own well-being, but also to be more successful in their day-

to-day job.

Economic value

A lack of those tools can lead to higher rates of turnover, and Moss said it makes the program all the more valuable.

“Turnover is expensive,” Moss said.  at piques interest in hospital administrators. Less burnout and turnover of employees is coste ective. Moss said the COVID-19 pandemic ampli ed the need for mental health resources for hospitals and administrators are looking for ways to do that.

So much so that the Children’s Hospital agreed to start a program outside of the grant. Once the grant from the National Endowment for the Arts nishes its 10year period, not only does Moss think more programs will exist in Colorado, but also all across the country.

He sees a larger multicenter study occurring at multiple different hospitals in di erent cities to expand the evidence on the e ciency.

“If a pill had the results that CORAL has, every single person would be taking it because it’s affordable and it works,” Reed said.

Healthcare workers engage in visual art making through the CORAL program that o ers art therapy to nurses, doctors and others within the medical profession.

Dance therapy is one form of art therapy the CORAL program provides. SCREENSHOTS

Northglenn celebrates Betty grace Gibson

r the late Betty grace Gibson, being a self-taught artist didn’t mean never taking an art class or workshop. As her daughter, Linda Drumm, recalls, being self-taught meant was taking things she learned in these kinds of educational environments and adding her own spin on them.

“She would take the techniques she learned and tweak them so they could be used her way,” Drumm said. “She just enjoyed what she was doing and was always exploring art all the time.”

Now Northglenn Arts is hosting an exhibition of Gibson’s work at the Parson eatre, 1 E. Memorial Parkway (inside the Northglenn Recreation Center). e free show runs through March.

Described by the city as one of Northglenn’s de ning artists and arts advocates, Gibson become one of the city’s rst homeowners in 1962 when she and her family moved in. According to provided information, she was a secretary at Malley Elementary School for 23 years and also served on the North Metro Arts Alliance Board for 15 years.

She was a longtime believer in the power of art and creativity and Drumm remembers her mother always encouraging her children to try di erent hands-on activities. When Gibson saw an ad in the newspaper for people who wanted to paint together, she and

Over the course of her career, Gibson experimented with all kinds of styles and media, but watercolor and acrylic were her favorite. She started spending the summers in Taos, New Mexico, and her time there provided a constant source of inspiration, as did the students of all ages that she taught in various arts workshops.

“She instigated a lot of art projects around community,” Drumm said, remembering her mother’s time on the Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation Board of Directors. “Mother wasn’t afraid to do anything and she did so many projects around the city.”

Since Gibson loved Northglenn so much, it’s only tting the city celebrates her with an exhibition that highlights the reach of her creativity.

“At the opening reception a woman came up to me to tell me that she never met my mother, but she’d seen her artwork around for years,” Drumm said. “It means a

lot that my mother was that wellknown and I’m honored that Northglenn wanted to honor her with this exhibit.”

Joe Pera Talks With You at the Paramount Theatre

I think we can all agree there’s just not enough gentleness and kindness in the world these days. I know I personally could use more of these traits as we move into a new year.

at’s why I’m going to see Joe Pera’s Comedy In Ice tour at the Paramount eatre, 1621 Glenarm Place in Denver, at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 13.

If you’re not familiar with Pera, he is the star of one of the most delightful shows I’ve ever seen, “Joe Pera Talks With You,” which ran for three seasons on Adult Swim. It is quiet and thoughtful and, most importantly of all, extraordinarily human and kind.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Colter Wall at Mission Ballroom

To thrive in country music, it is all about the voice. Not just the one that comes from the singer’s throat, but the one that comes from their pen as well. Fortunately for Canada’s Colter Wall, he’s aces in both senses of the word. Just check out “Night Herding Song,” a track that features just a few guitar strums and Wall crooning away. It still gives me chills.

His take on country is perfect for this time of year, so you absolutely shouldn’t miss his two nights at the Mission Ballroom, 4242 Wynkoop St. in Denver. He’ll be performing at 9 p.m. on ursday, Jan. 19 and Friday, Jan. 20. Get tickets at www. ticketmaster.com.

New members of guild share art

Works on display in gallery that began as railroad depot

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Eighteen artists have joined the longtime Littleton Fine Arts Guild in the past year and the organization features their works in a new exhibit, through March 5. e LFAG operates the historic Depot Art Gallery at 2069 W. Powers Ave. in downtown Littleton and two receptions are planned to feature their works.  e rst reception will be Jan. 13 from 4 to 7 p.m. and the second will be from 4 to 7 p.m. on Feb. 10. e public is invited to both.

For newcomers who are not familiar with the gallery, it is fashioned from the historic red Santa Fe Railway depot that once served Littleton passengers who commuted into Denver, as well as longer distance passengers who came from all directions to visit Littleton, or pass through en route to Wyoming and New Mexico or to nd east-west train connections.

And then, there were the daily shipments of milk cans and other freight. (Our area south of Denver was lled with dairy farms and other agricultural projects.) Note the milk can at the gallery entrance! e new members work in a variety of techniques — oil, watercolor, ink, threedimensional pieces and more.

“White Torch” a watercolor by Kristal Hoeh, shows a portrait of the beautiful owering cactus we nd to the south and west of Littleton. e sharp spines clearly say “just look!”

John Kitner’s “Guanella Pass,” created with acrylic paint on a horizontal panel, carries the eye across a green mountain meadow and up the pass that will carry travelers into historic Georgetown on the other side. (My favorite spot in Colorado is at the top of Guanella Pass!)

Perhaps a stop in Georgetown — or Littleton — for breakfast will bring some bright red strawberries like those on Teresa Maone’s painting.

Pat Hartman’s soft watercolor, “While On My Way,” shows a scene we might nd in a number of Colorado locations: a sunny corner of a weathered log fence that

leads into a grove of aspen trees. Nice spot for a picnic.

Admission to the gallery is free. You can also view this exhibit at depotartgallery. org.

Second Amendment sanctuary declarations by county governments or sheri s can also have a chilling e ect on petitions if laypeople misconstrue the largely symbolic gesture as preventing them from seeking a protection order.

e El Paso County Sheri ’s O ce was widely criticized for not seeking a protection order after the Club Q suspect had been arrested and his guns seized in June 2021 after threatening to blow up his mother’s home. e sheri ’s o ce issued a statement in December saying the suspect’s weapons had already been seized and a mandatory protection order was in place, preventing him from buying additional rearms. However, the charges against him were dismissed in July 2022, remov-

ing the mandatory protection order.

e case records were sealed, which sheri ’s o cials said prevented them from using that incident to pursue an extreme risk protection order. And no new evidence was available that would have allowed the sheri to seek one, o cials added.

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat, said his administration will look into why petitions were not led in Colorado Springs and ways to strengthen the red ag law.

“We’re having a discussion now with local law enforcement, with state legislators about what holes exist in extreme risk protection orders and how we can better make sure that we have a system that works to keep people safe across Colorado,” the governor said.

Polis has oated the idea of expanding the group of eligible petitioners and has mentioned district attorneys as another potential category.

Nineteen states and the District of Columbia have red ag laws on their books, allowing di erent parties to petition for protection orders. Law enforcement o cers le most red ag law petitions, although the lines between ling groups are often blurred. Family members or others with the ability to petition often ask police to le on their behalf, and some police departments urge relatives to let police handle the petition because they’re better at it.

Geller said advocates are pushing states to use money available through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act to increase education about red ag laws, both to make more people aware of the tool and to help law enforcement or other eligible petitioners learn how to seek them.

Colorado can access $4.6 million in funding for the 2022 and 2023 scal years and must apply for funds this month.

Colorado gun violence prevention advoca/,tes expect state legislators to push for tougher gun laws in the upcoming legislative session. Democrats held a slim majority in 2019 when they passed the bill establishing the red ag law, limiting its scope. But a landslide victory by Colorado Democrats in 2022 could provide the votes to o er more sweeping gun measures, such as a red ag law expansion, a semiautomatic weapons ban, or a raise in the minimum age for purchasing guns to 21.

“ ere was an appetite for this, anyways, before the Springs shooting,” said Eileen McCarron, president of gun violence prevention group Colorado Cease re Legislative Action. “But I think that shooting has exacerbated the issue, giving it more momentum.”
