Englewood teachers get a pay increase

BY ELISABETH SLAY ESLAY@COLORACOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Teachers and staff at Englewood Schools just received an increase in pay. It emanates from funding passed by voters in the November election.

The bump is helpful, but it might not solve long-term retention issues, said Rosemary Wulf, presi-

dent of Englewood Educators.

“Our salaries have not been keeping up with (Colorado) inflation and our health insurance costs have been going up significantly every year,” Wulf said. “Even with the mill levy our salaries are still lagging behind our neighboring school districts.”

Englewood Educators describes itself as “a teachers association that

VOICES: 12 | LIFE: 14 | CALENDAR: 17

represents the voices of teachers in order to advocate for best practices in education.”

Superintendent Joanna Polizin said the recent salary increases are for an already negotiated 5% increase in the base salaries of educators.

Englewood slaying nets 60-year plea deal Patricia Darlene Grass was shot to death while standing in her doorway STAFF REPORT

Quoc Van Nguyen, 31, the Englewood man who was charged with killing neighbor Patricia Darlene Grass for no apparent reason in 2022, has reached a plea bargain calling for a 60-year prison term.

The plea bargain was described in a Feb. 6 Arapahoe County District Court hearing as 48 years for seconddegree murder and a consecutive 12 years Nguyen for attempted seconddegree murder.

Nguyen was initially held on suspicion of first-degree murder in the Sept. 28, 2022 slaying. A first-degree murder conviction in Colorado would have carried a penalty of life in prison without parole.

The 2022 affidavit in the case says Nguyen shot and killed Grass, 68, from outside her Englewood home at 4395 S. Elati St. as she stood in the front doorway shortly before 10 p.m.

He lived across the street at 4386 S. Elati St. Grass’ 41-year-old roommate was with her when she was shot, according to the affidavit, and called police around 9:58 p.m. Wednesday.

Officers arrived in the area and found Nguyen running westbound on West Radcliff Avenue. He was arrested just south of Grass’ home on the corner of Elati and Radcliff, according to the affidavit.

At the time of his arrest, Nguyen was wearing a tactical vest and had a rifle with a magazine and rounds inside, a pistol, a gun belt with a pistol holder and extra rifle magazines, the affidavit says.

Grass’ roommate, according to the affidavit, told police that he and Grass saw the silhouette of a person who came by their front patio. Grass had turned on the patio light and her roommate was holding her arm to help steady her when he heard mul-

tiple shots fired.

The shots hit Grass in her head and arm, the affidavit says, and she was found by police at the threshold of her front door, where she was pronounced dead at 10:09 p.m. Officers believe the shots came from a rifle angled below the porch and going upward to the house, according to the affidavit.

A neighbor’s doorbell camera captured footage of a man who met the description of Nguyen running southbound in the Delaware/Elati alley that turns westbound onto West Radcliff Avenue. It is unknown if this footage was from before or after the shooting as it had no timestamp, according to the affidavit.

Another neighbor told officers he saw a man with the same description as Nguyen run from the alley into a garage at the Nguyen home across the street from the victim’s home.

Officers did a sweep of the Nguyen home where they found three or four rifles by a closet, a rifle inside the closet, a rifle on a bed, two pistol magazines on a desk in the northeast bedroom upstairs and firearm equip-

ment in the same bedroom, the affidavit says.

Inside the home was Nguyen’s mother, father, wife and 2-year-old child. Nguyen’s family gave police consent for the search, according to the affidavit.

Nguyen’s mother, father and wife all gave the same account to officers of the events that night before the shooting: The family ate dinner together between 7 and 8 p.m. and, after dinner, they played with Nguyen’s child. Nguyen’s parents went to sleep around 9 p.m., they told officers according to the affidavit, and were awakened about an hour later by loud bangs.

Nguyen’s mother, father and wife said Nguyen had exhibited no signs of suicidal or homicidal ideations, did not suffer from any mental illness and took no medications, the affidavit says. None of the family members reported that Nguyen had any problems with neighbors, and his mother told officers he is “always very friendly and helpful with the people who SEE PLEA, P8

Littleton factory to close, lay off 60

BY NINA JOSS NJOSS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A global industrial engineering company is shutting down its factory in Littleton, laying off 60 workers.

IMI Norgren LLC, a company specializing in motion control and fluid technology, announced its plans in a letter to the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment at the end of January.

The company will permanently close its Littleton Manufacturing Operations Facility at 5400 S. Delaware St., the letter states.

“This will result in the permanent layoff of 60 hourly and salaried employees,” the letter said.

Layoffs are expected to hit between April and June.

IMI Norgren LLC makes valves, fluid control systems and other products that are used in transportation, medical devices, agriculture and industrial processes.

The company has operated in the south metro region for over 60 years, according to the Bemis Public Library

and the Englewood Public Library.

A parcel of land just south of the factory is likely going to become a 325-unit multifamily development project. Littleton Senior Planner Jerad Chipman said the project has been in the making for almost two years and is currently in the site planning process.

The Littleton Independent contacted IMI Norgren LLC and did not receive a response before deadline.

Evidence Mounts That the Off-Site (aka Modular) Construction Industry Is Maturing

Every day I receive email newsletters about real estate, and one of my favorite is Construct Utopia, published by Pro Builder magazine. This week is not the first time I have written a column based on or inspired by an article in that newsletter.

A common subject these days is modular or “off-site” construction. The latest Construct Utopia newsletter has an article about Cuby Technologies, a startup which devised a solution for customizable mass-produced prefab homes — mobile micro factories. Instead of constructing big factories that ship new home modules, Cuby produces micro factories that are set up near the construction site, such as in a field or on a rented parking lot.

Modular construction is typically off site, but bringing the factory to or near the worksite is an interesting twist — perhaps call it “on-site (or close-by) offsite construction.” But the factory could also serve other build sites, functioning as a traditional off-site modular factory but one that is much closer.

The micro-factory is shipped in about 10 containers, and it is set up inside an inflatable tent that covers 30,000 to 40,000 square feet of interior space for creating the modules to be assembled on a nearby construction site.

The idea is to eliminate one of the major costs of modular construction, which is shipping the modules great distances to the work site.

I’ve been a fan of the idea of modular construction ever since I purchased what I thought was a stick-built home in the Mesa Meadows subdivision in north Golden. I bought the home in 1997. After moving in, a neighbor told me he had watched my home go up in one day, delivered from Ft. Morgan on flatbed trailers for installation on a prepared foundation. The interior work was then completed by Pat Foss, a local builder.

The advantages of building the home in a factory, I was told at the time, was better quality control, including better insulation. The exterior walls were all built with 2x6 instead of 2x4 studs, to better survive flatbed transportation from Ft. Morgan.

At right is an artist’s rendering of one of Cuby’s micro factories. It reminds me of how Elon Musk built a tent for assembling the Model 3 next to the Fremont factory rather than wait for a brick-and-mortar building to be permitted and built.

Neighbors of construction sites would probably appreciate having the construction of a new building or subdivision taking place largely indoors, even if it is just a tent, reducing the noise and dust of on-site construction.

Construction in a tent has other advantages including protection from the elements, whether it be rain or snow or simply cold weather. Productivity would be greatly enhanced. Workers will appreciate working a predictable number of days and hours as well as being warm during the winter months. Making working conditions better could also address one of the biggest problems facing the home construction industry: attracting and hiring enough workers.

By completing the major structural panels indoors, the subsequent on-site finishing work can be made more attractive thanks to being able to “weather in” the building quickly. This too improves working conditions and recruitment.

“Inside the dome,” according to the company, “machines and conveyor belts produce and prep all the elements of the home—windows, wall panels, plumbing pipes, drywall, HVAC systems, and so on—then package them into kits.”

The enclosed environment also contributes to less waste and better waste management and recycling.

This Column Is 20 Years Old — See What You Missed

Have you enjoyed reading this column? I have been writing this column for nearly two decades, but only started paying for it to appear in this newspaper last April. At www.JimSmithColumns.com you can find links to more than a decade of “Real Estate Today” columns that you may find applicable to your own real estate journey. At right is a glimpse of what that catalog of previous columns looks like, showing just a few of the columns that predated my contract with this newspaper.

Cuby is a startup that began in Belarus. Cofounder Aleksandr Gampel says the first micro factory is being delivered to Detroit shortly.

Within the next decade he expects to produce 275 micro factories that will build 200,000 homes and create 300,000 jobs, removing approximately 750,000 tons of waste from the construction process.

Although Cuby promotes its micro factories for home building, it’s not a home builder. It sells the micro factories for $10 –15 million. Their customers are typically developers, builders, general contractors and private equity groups, whose customers might be midsize home builders.

Cuby claims that it can lower the cost of new construction from $150 per square foot to $100 per square foot.

This & That: Smaller Topics Not Worth Full Articles Renewable Energy Is Being Banned in More and More U.S. Counties

This is according to a Feb. 4 article on USA Today’s website. Here’s an excerpt: “In the past decade, about 180 counties got their first commercial wind-power projects. But in the same period, more than twice as many blocked wind development.

And while solar power has found more broad acceptance, 2023 was the first year to see almost as many individual counties block new solar projects as the ones adding their first projects.

“The result: Some of the areas with the nation's best sources of wind and solar power have now been boxed out.”

Beware of Scammers Pretending to Be Alerting You to a Scam

Fox 31 reported last week about a Golden couple that was scammed out of more than $137,000. The scam began with a phone call from the “Chase fraud department.” It is so important to question every phone call, text message or email you receive. If that Golden resident had thanked the caller, but hung up

and then called Chase’s customer service number to see if there was a fraud alert on his account, he could have avoided being the victim of that scam. I have posted a link to that story on my Substack blog.

NAR Is Criticized by Its Own Members for Donating to Anti-LBGTQ+ Candidates

The political action committee of the National Association of Realtors (NAR) is one of the biggest donors to political candidates and incumbents who are considered, based on Realtor interviews, to be “prohousing.”

A collection of diverse NAR members calling themselves the Real Estate Alliance is now challenging donations by local and national Realtor associations to candidates who push laws which violate Fair Housing.

For example, the Florida association donated $200,000 to Gov. Ron DeSantis, despite his well-known anti-LGBTQ+ policies such as the “Don’t Say Gay” law. Here in Colorado, the Realtor association has donated to three candidates who sponsored an anti-trans bill.

On my Substack blog, you can learn more about the Real Estate Alliance’s program.

Police identify arrested ACC student STAFF REPORT

An Arapahoe Community College student who was arrested on campus Feb. 1 while allegedly carrying a loaded handgun in his backpack has been identified as James Curtis Graham Jr., 35.

Graham was the subject of a campus crime alert that was emailed to ACC students, faculty and staff the day of his arrest, though campus police did not publicly identify him until Feb. 6, in response to a records request from Colorado Community Media.

On Jan. 30, Denver marshals contacted campus police to inform them they were attempting to locate Graham on a felony arrest warrant, said Arapahoe Community College Campus Police Chief Joseph Morris.

Morris said the marshals believed

Graham was enrolled in classes and had a history of violence and weapons violation, so he could be armed.

Campus police created a plan to apprehend Graham next time he was on the Littleton campus, Morris said.

With assistance from the Littleton Police Department, campus Graham police located Graham in Parking Lot B on the campus around 3:55 p.m. on Feb. 1.

Upon arresting Graham, police found a loaded handgun in his backpack, according to the crime alert.

The felony arrest warrant was for failure to appear on weapons charges from Jefferson County, Morris said.

Records show the Jefferson County District Court case that led to the

failure-to-appear warrant stemmed from an incident on Aug. 16, 2023.

Seven charges arose from that incident, listed in the court register of actions as weapon possession/ previous offender; protection order violation; weapon-prohibited usedrunk with gun; driving under the influence; and three traffic offenses.

Graham was initially booked into the Arapahoe County jail on Feb. 1.

Denver County records show he was then booked into Denver’s Downtown Detention Center on Feb. 5, and as of Feb. 7 he continued to be held there on a failure-to-appear warrant and 2021 charges of assault, protection-order violation and harassment-strike/shove/kick.

Court dockets and jail records show Graham’s next court appearance is set for Feb. 20 on the Jefferson County charges; followed by a

Two arrested after multi-agency pursuit Two suspected robbers were arrested after a car chase involving multiple police agencies.

The Englewood Police Depart-

ment worked with Cherry Hills Village and Littleton officers to arrest the suspects on Feb. 2. They are accused of“robbing two convenience stores at gunpoint, one in Englewood around 11:30 p.m. and one in Littleton a short time later,” accord-

ing to Englewood police.

“After, the suspects attempted to elude police,” police said.

That led to a pursuit that ended when the vehicle crashed in the 4700 block of South Pearl Street.

Police said the suspects were tak-

en into custody and the vehicle they used in the robberies was impounded. It was discovered to be stolen.

Police on Feb. 6 declined to identify the suspects and said their investigation is ongoing, involving multiple jurisdictions.

Experts talk about impacts of stress on the body

BY HALEY LENA HLENA@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Whether it’s daily hassles or major life events, the resulting stress can impact both physical health as it engages nearly every system in the body.

“It can cause mind-body changes,” said Alyssa Henry, licensed professional counselor with UCHealth Family Medicine. “And in doing so, stress contributes directly to psychological and physiological disorders and disease.”

In addition to impacting mood, behavioral changes, anxiety disorders, depression and even potentially linking to post-traumatic stress, Henry and Licensed Clinical Social Worker Gina Hochhalter, say unchecked stress can lead to a number of physical health concerns.

The most common symptoms of stress include muscle tension, digestive issues, headaches and fatigue, but stress can also exacerbate existing health conditions, weaken immune systems and even affect the musculoskeletal, respiratory, endocrine and other systems.

Chronic stress can also negatively impact the cardiovascular system.

None of Nguyen’s family was aware of his guns, according to what they told police, with his wife quoted in the

Prolonged stress can increase the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure and other issues because stress activates the release of hormones like cortisol and adrenaline.

“This release can raise blood pressure and could damage blood vessels over time,” said Henry.

But stress can also suppress the immune system, which makes the body more susceptible to infections and diseases.

According to the National Institute of Health, chronic elevations of cortisol can lead to the immune system developing a resistance and the accumulation of stress hormones can further compromise the immune response.

“Being ill more frequently may impact productivity at work or home, which could result in an increasing number of growing tasks,” said Henry.

Chronic stress can disrupt digestive system functions as well as it can lead to stomach aches, ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome and worsen symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease. It can also contribute to weight gain or weight loss.

Sleep quality and physical activity

affidavit as saying “when he’s with me he doesn’t have any weapons.”

Formal sentencing was set for Feb. 13, after the press deadline for this print edition.

Previous reporting by former Colorado Community Media staff writer Robert Tann was used in this story.

Diet and the quantity of food can also disrupt sleep patterns as well as caffeine and alcohol close to bedtime can disrupt the quality of sleep.

Alcohol can make people feel sleepy, said Hochhalter, but it won’t contribute to the quality of sleep.

“It might get you to sleep,” said Hochhalter. “But you’re not going to be getting that restful sleep because your body’s gonna have to metabolize that alcohol through the night which turns into sugar.”

Chronic stress may lead to insomnia, which can result in fatigue and can cloud judgment and impacts our mood and increases our perception of stress.

“It’s not something we can catch up on, on the weekends,” said Hochhlater. “We want to be consistent with how much we are getting.”

Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, even on the weekends, and establishing a relaxing bedtime routine that signals the body it’s time for sleep can help regulate the body’s internal clock and improve the quality of sleep.

A review in the Journal of Sleep Medicine found that mindfulness and meditation interventions significantly improve sleep quality, re-

duce insomnia symptoms and normalize sleep duration.

Additionally, regular exercise can promote better sleep, however, intense activity close to bedtime can have the opposite effect. Therefore, it is recommended that physical activity should be done a few hours before going to sleep.

“There’s considerable evidence that an individual who is addressing stress in a healthy way has improved cognitive function, their ability to mentally attuned to demanding tasks go up and their cognitive performance increases,” said Henry.

The Journal of Neurobiology of Learning and Memory found that regular physical activity has improved memory and cognitive function in older adults as physical activity stimulates the release of endorphins and can contribute to a positive or relaxed mood.

Henry added that regardless of physical ability, any amount of time committed to moving the body is beneficial. Other benefits of physical activity include a reduction in stress hormones, improvements in mood, emotional well-being and cognitive abilities, which can help people cope with stress more effectively.

The court appearance happened weeks after Williams gave a personal statement regarding his criminal past in a school board meeting on Dec. 19. Williams has two prior felony convictions in addition to the ongoing felony accusation.

In his statement, Williams

acknowledged “mistakes” he made about 10 years ago including a 2012 car theft and 2013 theft.

Williams did not address his current case in his statement. He also did not address his current case in an interview with the Englewood Herald on Dec. 19, citing advice from legal counsel.

The 2019 car-theft allegation against Williams led to the issuance of an arrest warrant in 2020. Williams turned himself in on the outstanding warrant on Nov. 6, 2023, after the Englewood Herald reported on the warrant and Englewood police announced that they were looking for Williams to arrest him.

The Glendale Police Department confirmed that Williams turned himself in to their agency for the outstanding warrant on Nov. 6, one day before Williams was elected to the school board.

“I also am hopeful that we can use funds from the mill to fully return the specials like art and music to our elementary schools,” Wulf said. “These programs were severely impacted by budget cuts last year.”

Polzin said over the last five years the percentage comparison of budget cuts was about 15% across the district.

Additionally, Polzin said in addition to staffing, other departments impacted by budget reductions in the 2023-2024 fiscal year were “operations and maintenance, school site-based budgets, the learning services department, communications and the print shop.”

The increase was made possible by the Debt Free Schools Mill Levy funds.

Mary Cooper, executive director of budget and finance, said the funds are slated for operations and

technology related expenses. That helped “freed up” money in the budget for other expenses, like the salary increases, she said.

The mill has already gone into effect for the 20232024 fiscal year and Cooper said the district created the Operations & Technology Fund.

“Additionally, starting on Jan. 23, the district increased schools’ site-based budgets to allow the principal the discretion of determining what their school needs to thrive through the end of the fiscal year,” Cooper said.

She said the district didn’t recommend any cuts to the 2023-2024 budget due to the addition of the Debt Free Schools Mill Levy.

Cooper said the district created the Operations & Technology Fund because of the mill levy.

“Ballot language allowed for the collection of $4 mil-

lion in revenue for the 2024 calendar year,” Cooper said.

“From Jan. 1 through June 30, the district anticipates a total collection of $2.85 million. All salaries, benefits, purchased services, supplies and equipment related to operations, maintenance and technology have been moved into this fund.”

The district is developing its 2024-2025 fiscal year budget, which will be presented to the Board of Education in May. Additionally, Cooper said the district is working toward three goals in the district’s Strategic Plan for the district.

One goal is offering educational opportunities and programming to promote students’ academic, social and emotional growth. Another goal is to retain “outstanding educators, principals and support staff,” Cooper said.

Englewood Board of Education member Davon Williams’ scheduled arraignment on a felony charge of car theft was postponed.

Notes from the Feb. 7 hearing in Adams County District Court show “parties are working on a possible resolution” in the 2019 allegation of car theft. Williams is expected to appear again in the court’s Division G on April 9 at 8:30 a.m.

Williams is represented by attorney Michael McCullough.

Meg Froelich, who represents Englewood in the Colorado House, told the Englewood Herald in December that she believes a felony conviction while in office could result in Williams’ removal from the Englewood school board.

“Currently the law states in C.R.S. 22-31-129: ‘A school director office shall

a new classified salary schedule which will be an investment of $675,000,” Polzin said. “For a minimum increase of 7.5% to their current pay rate.”

There was also a 5% increase to administration staff salaries, totalling the district’s initial mill levy investment to $1.2 million dollars.

Wulf said she’s hopeful the district can utilize the mill to make salaries “more competitive” and help prevent the loss of teachers to other districts.

“We need to stop losing great teachers to Cherry Creek (Schools),” Wulf said.

Wulf added that she wants to see funds restore programs that were recently cut.

Living with an abundance mentality

W

hen bombarded by problems, our instinct is often to fixate on lacks, not enough time, energy or resources. We WINNING operate from a scarcity mindset govWORDS erned by fear and self-protection. But shifting to an abundance paradigm alters life’s trajectory.

There are many of us who grew up with parents, grandparents, and even Michael Norton great-grandparents who lived during the Depression era. For those of us who did, we were often told stories of how they lived and survived during those lean years. Times were hard, people became hardened, and abundance was tough to come by.

Even now, there are still those who live and work with a scarcity mentality instead of an abundance mindset. Being cautious and wise with resources is important, and not chasing foolish optimism is sound advice. We need to use good judgment when determining our condition and environment when it comes to choosing abundance over scarcity.

One of my favorite scenes from a movie that clearly depicts the scarcity mindset in a lighthearted way is found in the movie, Finding Nemo.

It’s the scene where Nemo’s dad and Dory find themselves among a flock of seagulls. The seagulls mimic their cry using the words, “Mine, mine, mine.” How often do we look at what we have and refuse to share, saying the same thing, “Mine, mine, mine?”

Living with abundance means that we carry the belief that there really is enough for everyone. It’s not just making sure we get our slice of the pie; it’s about making the pie bigger so all can enjoy it. It’s know-

ing that we have enough to meet our needs and looking at how we can help others who might be in a time of need.

Learning to live with abundance takes away the edge and worry about what will happen next. It not only calms our fears, but it also actually increases our generosity. An abundance mindset can bolster innovation at work. Feeling strapped stifles creativity about possible solutions. But believing options and answers exist outside of our scope of understanding liberates innovation. If resources feel scarce, we likely need to think bigger. Leaders would do well to shift from scarcity to abundance thinking to spur breakthroughs.

Abundance empowers us to stop hoarding in fear. We spend time and talents freely, trusting the well will not run dry. Saying yes to life’s invitations leads to growth. Declut-

tering the unnecessary makes space for joy and purpose.

Abundance thinking reframes “not enough” into “more than enough.” It believes resources exist to accomplish our divinely inspired purpose, whether launching a company or raising a child. Lack is merely a limitation of vision, not actually supply. Abundance thinking builds confidence, not arrogance.

Our worth rests on grace, not works.

When we live and work with an abundance mentality instead of material scarcity, anxiety is lifted. We take bold risks toward the achievement of our goals and dreams. We create value instead of competing for those slices of the pie mentioned earlier. We breathe deeper and stand taller, empowered to change the world.

Those with an abundance mentality are generous because they believe resources exist to fulfill pur-

pose. They freely spend time mentoring others whose talents could one day launch world-changing ventures. They know the water won’t run out if they pour out freely.

Abundance breeds gratitude and giving.

An abundance mentality also builds resilience amid hardship.

During storms, scarcity fixates on all that may be lost. It knows setbacks are often setups for greater impact.

This mentality lifts eyes beyond the present turmoil to see hope.

Scarcity thinking shrinks possibility and fuels fear. Adopting an abundance mentality liberates us to thrive. Despite real limitations, embracing the truth of the blessings that we have lavishly been provided transforms everything. Abundance thinking awakens courage, creativity, and deep joy.

The good, bad and ugly

M

y readers know I like to look at all sides of a situation. The beginning of the year is a good time to map out what is great, FINANCIAL what may be chalSTRATEGIES lenging and what is potentially awful with the economic landscape and how it affects investors.

I like to be positive, so I’ll start with the current good things.

First is the Fed and that they may Patricia Kummer have pulled off a soft landing. This is where they are able to raise interest rates enough to curb inflation and not cause a recession. So far, so good. Inflation has come down; the economy is still growing and employment remains strong.

Second, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is positive but slowing. I put this measure of economic growth in the good category because it could be much worse considering the level of interest rate hikes we have endured. Economic growth is naturally expected to slow as inflation comes down. Much of this growth is fueled by consumer spending which last year made up 80 percent of the GDP. Higher inflation should have curbed some of that spending but there could still be pent up demand from shortages during COVID. Housing has also held up well considering high mortgage rates. Those of us buying houses in the eighties when interest rates were around 12% don’t think current rates are high. However, there is a whole new generation of home buyers that

have never seen anything north of 4%. Fannie Mae states “Mortgage rates will fall below 6% in 2024.”¹ Investors are enjoying a nice start to the year. The stock market falls into both the good and the bad category. While returns have been nice as corporate earnings have held up during rising rates, many believe valuations are artificially high and will correct at some point. That is usually the natural cycle of the market so this is not really unexpected. It may also depend on which stocks and which sectors, given that we often see rolling corrections that don’t affect the entire S&P 500. Currently we have price to earnings (P/E) in a wide range. Twenty or below is considered decent. This is the calculation of the stock price divided by annual earnings, so the lower the better if you are looking for undervalued stocks.

Other economic indicators on the bad list include a slowing economy, a softening labor market, and uncertainty around when the Fed will start to lower interest rates.² And we can’t talk about 2024 without mentioning that it is an election year. While political outcomes are never a successful investment strategy, it does affect the mood, if not the perception, of how the economy will be affected at least for the next four years. Therefore I would put elections in the ugly category along with war, violence, poverty, and declining health.

Maybe we just need more love, hope, faith, and charity to push everything into the good category!

I

n the back of your mind, you might recall fond memories of your parents taking you to the park — or school programs busing you to faraway nature scenes.

And in the bustle of adulthood, getting outdoors may have become less of a priority in your daily schedule.

But the benefits of viewing and spending time in nature go deeper than the proverbial “getting some air.”

In fact, it can lower blood pressure and is linked with lowering levels of stress, depression and anxiety, according to the National Park Service.

One easy way to capture those benefits is hiking, a word that conjures images of mountains and rugged dirt trails. And in Colorado, chances are you’ve met someone with a “hiker” persona:

lots of gear, often heading out on weekends, probably driving a Subaru.

But hiking doesn’t have to be so extreme. It doesn’t even have to involve big hills.

In the purest sense, it’s just a long walk for pleasure or exercise. And if you live in any of the counties around Denver, the good news is you’re never far from a hiking spot.

That includes places with breathtaking views in Douglas County.

“Most Douglas County staffers will tell you that the open space that they like best is the last one they got to hike,” said Dan Dertz, director of Douglas County’s open space office.

From Georgetown in the mountains to the plains of Elbert County, here’s a look at hiking spots for beginners and seasoned veterans alike — and some tips if you’re new to the activity.

Douglas County

If you’re just starting out, one of the easiest

hiking trails in Douglas County is Bluffs Regional Park, Dertz says.

Just a few miles from Park Meadows mall, Bluffs Regional Park offers sweeping views of the mountains and the Denver metro area. It’s a short drive south of Yosemite Street and Lincoln Avenue near Lone Tree.

If you’re seeking high elevation and more of a challenge, try Spruce Mountain Open Space Trail. That’s off Spruce Mountain Road south of Noe Road, west of Interstate 25.

There are no costs for parking or access at those hiking spots.

Jefferson County

For an easy and flat hike not far from downtown Denver, try Crown Hill Park off 26th Avenue in the Wheat Ridge area. Its trailways offer lakeside views.

One of the higher-elevation spots in Jefferson County for a hike is Elk Meadow Park in the Evergreen area. There, you can brave a 2,100-foot elevation gain from the Stagecoach Boulevard trailhead to the 9,708-foot Bergen Peak, according to Jefferson County Open Space.

All Jeffco Open Space parks are free to access and open to the public one hour before sunrise to one hour after sunset, according to the county.

For information on park closures, see the county’s alerts and closures webpage.

Clear Creek County

Asked about lesser-known spots for hiking in Clear Creek County, Jon Butcher, a county staffer, said: “The Silver Creek Trail is probably the coolest but hard to get to.”

“It is a wagon road built in the mid-to-late 1800s that is flat once you get there,” said Butcher, the county’s recreation facilities manager.

Proposal could overhaul Colorado school funding

BY JASON GONZALES CHALKBEAT COLORADO

Colorado officials could overhaul school funding.

PHOTO BY ANN SCHIMKE, CHALKBEAT

A proposed overhaul of Colorado’s school funding formula is being hailed as long overdue, though lawmakers are wondering how they’ll pay for it and some education advocates say it’s only a partial answer to decades of underfunding.

Under the proposal, Colorado schools would get more money to meet the needs of English learners and students with disabilities, and rural districts would get more funding to address their challenges.

If adopted, it would be the first major change in 30 years to how Colorado divvies up funding to schools. The proposal, released this week, is the work of a 17-member task force that managed to reach agreement on thorny issues that have tanked previous efforts to reform

the current formula, which is widely viewed as out-of-date and unfair.

“With the formula change, the state can really target those resources to the kids who need the most,” said task force member Brenda Dickhoner, CEO of the conservative education advocacy group Ready Colorado. “We are really moving away from a one-size-fits-all educational model to a really individualized model that takes place in a variety of different types of educational settings. And I think that is what’s going to close our achievement gaps.”

But the new formula would require about $474 million to implement — a roughly 8.9% increase in state education funding — when lawmakers already expect a tight budget year and want to spend money on other priorities, including higher education.

High school duo to go pro in cornhole sports, like mental discipline, to succeed in cornhole.

“It never even crossed my mind that I could do this as a career or go to college for this, but I wouldn’t want it any other way,” Remmick said.

“It’s super awesome to be a part of and to be the first cornhole committed players. I’m super stoked.”

BY JOHN RENFROW JRENFROW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Though a very small percentage of high school athletes go on to play in college, National Signing Day along the Front Range always makes you think twice. At ThunderRidge High School, several students put pen to paper for a spot at the next level.

But two cornhole players — who have found a way to get a college scholarship and go pro at the same time — headlined the event.

Yes, cornhole players. It’s become much more than just a tailgate, beer garden or backyard barbecue game, and two local seniors are paving the way.

Cornhole country

ThunderRidge seniors Jaxson Remmick, left, and Gavin Hamann are excited to continue their cornhole legacies together at the next level. Both are two-time national champions in high school and are the new foundational pieces of Winthrop University’s cornhole team in Rock PHOTO BY JOHN RENFROW Hill, South Carolina.

Making history

Jaxson Remmick and Gavin Hamann, two-time high school national champions in the American Cornhole League (ACL), officially became the first Division I cornhole players at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina.

According to cornhole pro and Winthrop Head Coach Dusty Thompson, they are believed to be the first such Division I cornhole scholarships in the country.

“Cornhole has grown so much in the past five years and these kids are the best in the country at what they do in high school and college,” Thompson said. “We could not be more excited to have them come and be a part of our team.”

Remmick and Hamann are considered five-star prospects and the first two foundational pieces of what Thompson hopes to develop into a powerhouse program. Cornhole isn’t yet an NCAAsanctioned sport, so the scholarships don’t give the freshmen-to-be a full ride. Yet Thompson is confident that in coming years college cornhole can grow into a sanctioned, full-scholarship sport.

Playing with pros

The historic signing was only part of what made the past week dynamic for the Highlands Ranch-

based seniors. Both were also drafted (called up) to the Colorado Timber, one of 16 pro teams in the ACL. Remmick and Hamann will be based in Rock Hill (the home of both the ACL and Winthrop).

But as pros, the two will travel around the country to compete in national events throughout the year, including a Cornhole Mania National event that will be broadcast on the CBS Sports Network on May 3-5.

“I never would have thought that starting cornhole two-and-a-half years ago as a hobby and side hustle to make money would lead to playing at a Division I level in college,” Hamann said. “I’m really excited to help build the Winthrop program.”

Hamann grew up playing soccer and Remmick played baseball.

Remmick always thought he’d sign to play baseball, but he’s found a passion and talent for cornhole, and he’s going to take it as far as he can.

Both bring the lessons they learned in other

Both are familiar with Rock Hill and know they’re going into the heart of cornhole country.

No strangers to the game, both have racked up championships and sponsorships aplenty before graduating high school.

They know the competition will be stiff, but they’ve been playing elite cornhole for years now and are ready for the challenge.

“Everyone is super welcoming and the competition is very, very tough; tougher than Colorado,” Remmick said. “But it’s just a great opportunity.”

The growth of cornhole has been exponential in a short time. Just two years ago, Remmick and Hamann were competing in the first-ever high school national championships.

Now, there are college scholarships available and professional teams playing on major networks like ESPN and CBS. “When we went and visited a couple of weekends ago, we really loved the people and the environment,” Hamann said. “It’s right next to the ACL headquarters, so we’ll be getting a lot of practice on the ACL boards. I’m excited and I’m confident in me and Jaxson and what we can do. We went to a regional out there and actually won all the events, so I know we can do it. It’s just about staying consistent.”

Though National Signing Day often brings tough goodbyes and tears between longtime teammates parting ways, Remmick and Hamann are excited to continue their legacies together.

“I know, with me and Jaxson’s talents, we can definitely help bring that team to the success we want it to be at,” Hamann said.

D.A. Kellner will not seek reelection in 2024

WEEK OF FEB. 12

John Kellner, a Republican, has served as the lead prosecutor for the 18th Judicial District, since his election in 2021.

Kellner announced he will not to run for another term in the district that includes Douglas, Elbert, Arapahoe and Lincoln counties. His term ends in January 2025.

He cited the impending split of the 18th Judicial District into two districts. He told Colorado Community Media on Monday that he is unsure what his next steps will be.

“I’ve thought a lot about it,” he said. “I’ve made my life about public service and this seems like a real natural inflection point with the break up of the districts.”

Kellner has spent the past few years helping the district prepare for the split, which is slated for 2025. It will create a new 23rd Judicial District, which will include Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties. The 18th will be limited to Arapahoe County.

“There’s no question the electoral math for somebody who’s a Republican is very challenging for Arapahoe County,” Kellner said.

Kellner is not eligible to run to become district attorney in the 23rd Judicial District because he doesn’t reside within its boundaries.

Kellner added that he feels it’s important to remain focused on completing the process of splitting the district instead of focusing on a campaign.

“I’m excited to see us get through the rest of the year and see us hand off two very excellent district attorneys offices to the new DAs,” he said.

Kellner started working in the 18th Judicial District in 2013, holding positions including prosecutor, senior deputy district attorney and chief deputy district attorney.

He said he is proud of his work as a prosecutor, particularly the 2022 conviction of serial murderer Alex Ewing, also known as the “hammer killer,” following a series of rapes and murders back in the 1980s.

“Being part of the investigation of that for several years and then

District Attorney John Kellner announced he will not run for another term in the 18th Judicial District, citing its upcoming split into two districts.

ultimately trying him, personally convicting him and seeing him sentenced to prison for the rest of his life was very rewarding,” he said.

Kellner repeatedly praised his colleagues in the district attorney’s office for their dedication and hard work. He encouraged the next district attorney to build on the office’s team mentality.

Another piece of advice Kellner offered his successors is to maintain the diversion program that helps low-level offenders avoid charges and aims to reduce recidivism. He also said specialized teams, like the Organized Crime Unit, are important to the district In 2022, Kellner campaigned to become Colorado’s Attorney General, but lost to Phil Weiser, a Democrat.

As of Monday, the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office showed Democrat Amy Padden had filed paperwork to run to become the next district attorney in the 18th Judicial District. Two Republicans, George Brauchler and Dagna Van Der Jagt, are running in the 23rd Judicial District.

property wealth, and small, rural districts would come out ahead.

Districts with a higher cost of living still would get more money, but not as much as in the current formula. How to account for those differences could see more debate.

Thirteen of the state’s 178 districts are projected to lose money under the recommended formula, including Douglas County, Boulder Valley, Littleton, Cheyenne Mountain, Academy 20, Poudre, and Aspen.

These districts all serve more affluent communities, though for years they have pointed out they have to pay teachers more to live there and spend more on basic services.

Task force member Riley Kitts, Democrats for Education Reform’s senior director of policy and government affairs, said the group reached a strong consensus on most of the changes, which he called long overdue.

The task force is also working on studies to determine how much Colorado should spend on K-12 schools if it wants to see better outcomes. Those studies are due by January 2025.

RIN

And some proposed changes could get pushback. Even task force members disagreed on some details, such as how to fairly account for higher costs in different parts of the state. State Sen. Rachel Zenzinger, an Arvada Democrat who will co-sponsor the school finance act, said she’s open to the recommendations. But she also wants to better understand how the new formula — which would permanently increase education funding — would affect spending in future years, especially because the state would need to use its savings to pay for the changes.

“I originally thought that we should definitely not do anything this year,” said Zenzinger, vice chair of the legislature’s Joint Budget Committee. “Now having read the report, I’m more open to contem-

es or at least incremental improvement,” he said in the letter. “Our work need not and will not be the final word.”

This is the latest of many efforts to rewrite the school finance formula over the last decade. The current formula gives far more weight to district characteristics, such as district size and whether the cost of living is high, than it does to factors like how many students live in poverty. The result is that some wealthy districts end up with more state funding than poor ones.

But efforts to change the formula have faced stiff political headwinds because no district wants to get less money. Lawmakers created the task force after a previous school finance committee disbanded without recommending a formula rewrite.

The new formula would increase base student funding, so nearly every district would get more money.

It also would dramatically increase how much more districts get for each student from a low-income household, each English learner, each student with a disability, and each gifted student.

Overall, districts serving students with higher needs, districts with low

plating changes that we can make this year.”

What does the formula do?

In a letter from the task force, Chair Chuck Carpenter, who also serves as Denver Public Schools chief financial officer, said the legislature charged the group with creating a “simpler, less regressive, more adequate, understandable, transparent, equitable, and student-centered” school finance formula.

The task force brought together a bipartisan collective of advocacy groups and educators from across the state.

Carpenter said the state’s formula was created before the current understanding of what public schools should be, including greater expectations involving standards, testing, and curriculum.

The task force report said it expects the legislature to consider the recommendations as a whole.

“Hopefully the work of this task force will lead to substantive chang-

West of the 6th P.M. bears South 71º 00’ East, 2,489.5 feet. iii. Source: The source of substitute supply is the Williams Fork River and its tributaries in Grand County, through diversion by the Ranch Creek System and trans-basin delivery of said diversions to the South Platte River watershed. The source of water diverted by exchange is the South Platte River and its tributaries. iv. Appropriation Date: March 17, 1964. v. Amount Claimed: 95 cfs, conditional, which is the maximum cumulative rate of exchange for the Williams Fork Exchange. Englewood reserves the right to amend this Application to include a make-absolute claim for some or all of the conditional amount if Englewood is able to operate the Williams Fork Exchange during the pendency of this Application. vi. Type of Use or Proposed Use: Diversion, storage, and beneficial use by Englewood for its water supply, and that of its water customers and contractual obligees, for domestic, irrigation, and other municipal purposes. vii. Place of Use or Proposed Use of Conditional Rights: The water diverted by exchange will be used within the service areas of Englewood and/or Centennial Water and Sanitation District pursuant to an existing water supply agreement, and any lands to which Englewood provides water for municipal purposes under an existing or future contract of supply. 6. Request for Finding of Reasonable Diligence: Pursuant to the Decree issued in Case No. 01CW215, the Subject Exchanges are part of an extensive unified and integrated system for the collection, treatment and distribution of water operated by Englewood for its customers. The operation of the Subject Exchanges is not only dependent upon Englewood’s demand and the available stream exchange potential but is also affected by the yield of other water rights and exchanges currently operated by Englewood. The existence of these water rights and exchanges is necessary to allow Englewood to plan for growth and to maintain flexibility and reliability in its water supply system. Therefore, for the purpose of showing diligence as to the conditional appropriative rights of exchange originally decreed in W-8456-76 and most recently granted a finding of reasonable diligence in Case No. 16CW3100, diligence as to any part of Englewood’s water system used to operate or benefit from these exchanges shall be diligence as to the completion of the Subject Exchanges. Englewood has undertaken significant efforts upon various components of its unified water system during the diligence period of January 2018 to the present, to continue the development of the Subject Exchanges. Activities that have been performed toward completion of the appropriation and application of the Subject Exchanges to beneficial use are described below. This list is representative but is not intended to be exhaustive. a.

FUNDING FROM PAGE 22

Kitts said he believes the studies shouldn’t hold up a formula change this year.

Lawmakers and education leaders are reviewing the report.

The recommendations come as lawmakers have committed to “fully fund” K-12 education for the first time since the Great Recession.

That means ending the practice of holding back money — more than $10 billion in the last decade — to pay for other budget priorities.

Even doing that requires dipping into education reserves. At the same time, federal pandemic aid is expiring, revenue is down slightly, and lawmakers are struggling to pay for behavioral health, affordable housing, and a slew of other priorities.

Ultimately, lawmakers, especially the powerful six-member Joint Budget Committee, will decide whether

they can afford to start the phase-in this year.

In a statement, a spokesperson for Gov. Jared Polis said districts serving students with higher needs have been short changed for years, and the governor looks forward to conversations with legislators, school districts, and others about the best way to make a difference for students through the formula this year.

Senate President Stephen Fenberg, a Boulder Democrat, said in a statement he is grateful for the recommendations and members will dig in to see what’s feasible for implementation this year.

House Education Chair state Rep. Barbara McLachlan, a Durango Democrat, said her initial read left her pleased because it tries to address funding issues for rural schools. If it can’t be adopted this year, she hopes to at least see a plan for when it would be.

“Let’s use the work and not ignore it,” she said.

Senate Minority Leader Paul Lun-

deen, a Monument Republican, called the work an “incremental — miniscule — step in the right direction.”

Lundeen said he’d prefer to see money fund students at the school level, instead of left to districts to distribute. And he would have liked to see money for schools that are getting strong results educating students.

Lundeen wouldn’t commit to supporting the formula changes.

“I’m working diligently to make it better,” he said. “I’m not going to say yes to something that is subpar to where I think it can get.”

Some education advocates have reservations. Tracie Rainey, Colorado School Finance Project executive director, said she wants to see the results of the adequacy studies first. Those might suggest different funding levels than those in the current recommendations.

Analyses that account for regional cost differences put Colorado about $2,000 below the national average

in per-student spending. Rainey said half a billion dollars more won’t get Colorado to the national benchmark.

“If they can wait to do things until they get the adequacy study, then the state can really build out a roadmap and a plan because you have all the information,” Rainey said.

“You still don’t have a lot of information.”

And Amie Baca-Oehlert, Colorado Education Association president, said that the formula illustrates statewide underfunding of K-12 schools. She wants Colorado lawmakers to talk about how to increase revenue for schools, “because the state needs the right revenue to do this.”

“Our hope is that this just continues to build the momentum to help voters understand and stand with us when we go to the ballot for a revenue fix for education,” she said.

Homeowners can delay Vote for property tax payments

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORACOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If you’re staring at your property tax bill and having a meltdown, a Colorado program might offer you relief.

The state’s Property Tax Deferral Program allows homeowners to push their property tax payment down the road, potentially for years — depending on eligibility.

“Anytime we can keep folks in their homes and help them find tax relief at the same time is a win for Coloradans,” Colorado State Treasurer Dave Young said in a prepared statement.

Homeowners can delay, or “defer,” tax payment for as long as they own their home. The program charges interest — or a slow yearly increase — in the amount of taxes you owe.

Here’s how the program works.

Who is eligible

Colorado’s deferral program has traditionally helped seniors and active military personnel, but it was expanded last year to provide relief to homeowners affected by increased property taxes for the tax years including and between 2020 to 2023. (2023 property taxes are what you’re billed for this year.)

The application period closes on April 1. Homeowners who aren’t seniors or active military can apply under different criteria — they’re eligible if their property taxes increased above what the program calls a “growth cap.”

The tax-growth cap is met when the current year’s property tax amount has increased 4% or more compared to the average of the two preceding tax years’ amounts.

Given the headline-grabbing spikes in property values — as calculated for tax purposes — last year in the Front Range and other parts of the state, many homeowners will likely qualify for the program because of how much their home’s property tax bill has increased.

Ins and outs

The program does not exempt homeowners from paying taxes but, rather, serves as a loan that a homeowner pays later.

Seniors and active military can defer for as long as they own their home and they reapply for deferral each year. Others applying under the tax growth-based eligibility can defer for as long as they own their home and reapply each year — as long as the amount being deferred does not exceed $10,000.

For example, if you applied last year and were granted a $6,000 deferral and then apply again this year, only $4,000 more could be deferred.

Under the program, homeowners don’t have to pay any portion of their deferred tax amount — including interest — so long as they continue to reapply, according to the Colorado Department of the Treasury.

“As long as the homeowner reapplies each year, they don’t have to pay until they don’t apply,” said Sheena Kadi, spokesperson for the department.

The current deferral interest rate is 4.125%. That means after a year, the deferred tax amount will have grown by that percentage.

Other criteria

Other eligibility criteria include: • The property claiming the deferral must be owner occupied, meaning the taxpayer must, by themselves or with another person, reside at the property • All property taxes for years before 2024 must be paid • For the growth cap-based deferrals, the property must not be income producing, meaning the property is not used for financial gain.

To apply

Homeowners can learn more by calling 833-634-2513 toll free or emailing cotreasproptax@state. co.us People in some areas may need to wait for their county to upload data before they’re able to apply, Kadi said on Feb. 8.
