The Arapahoe County commissioners have appointed Matt Crane as the county’s new clerk and recorder, replacing Nancy Doty, who has held the position while simultaneously serving as county commissioner. In a 4-to-1 vote, Crane emerged as the candidate of choice during the March 19 public hearing, with supporters citing his experience and technical skills. Board members cast Crane their votes aloud, each justifying their selection. “I know, personally, how difficult this job is,” said Doty. “Experience is key, and being able to take over on day one is critical, therefore I cast my ballot for Matt Crane.” Commissioners Rod Bockenfeld, Nancy Jackson and Bill Holen echoed Doty’s remarks, also casting their vote for Crane, who held the position of Arapahoe County deputy of elections under Doty. Holen, who represents District 5, read a statement scolding those responsible for a mysterious letter sent to the board earlier this year calling Crane’s integrity into question, calling the attempt vicious and an “attempt to usurp the democratic process.” District 2 Commissioner Nancy Sharpe, the only holdout, cast her vote for Susan Beckman, a former county commissioner. Sharpe said she based her decision to support Beckman on the office’s need for solid executive leadership. “The technology is already there,” she said. “The person that fills this position should be a strong manager, a respected leader and have the integrity and honesty to ensure fair elections.” After votes were tallied, realizing she was Clerk continues on Page 13

Rare meeting of the minds over marijuana DeGette, Coffman join forces to protect Amendment 64 from feds By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Normally polar opposites, U.S. Reps. Diana DeGette (D-Denver) and Mike Coffman (R-Aurora) re-introduced the “Respect States’ and Citizens’ Rights Act,” which POSTAL ADDRESS

would ensure state laws regarding marijuana will not be pre-empted by the federal government. “I strongly oppose marijuana legalization, and I did not support Amendment 64, but I also have an obligation to respect the will of Colorado voters. They passed this initiaCoﬀman tive, and I will support their voice and this legislation,” Coffman said in a news release.

Amendment 64 passed by a wide margin in Colorado, making it legal for those older than 21 to possess small amounts of pot for recreational use. Several lawmakers quickly expressed concern about the federal government’s ability to override the voter-approved initia- DeGette tive and the state’s right to exercise the will of the citizens.

Real ‘R-word’ should be ‘respect’ Brenden VanBruwaene, 16, looks intently, seriously, at the camera as he starts the public service announcement. His words are simple and direct: “When I hear people saying retarded, it makes me feel upset and … sad a lot. That’s what I feel.” Brenden would know. He is a sophomore, a friend to all, who walks through school halls listening to music with his headphones and iPod and flashing happy smiles. He has big dreams — to be a famous actor or singer someday. He also has Down syndrome, a fact of life Brenden will passionately tell you has shown him how important it is to be kind and respectful to everyone. He doesn’t hear the word “retard” much, but he was called it once last year. A friend stood up for him. Still, he hurt. “This is,” he says, “not right.” Brenden knows — which is why he and his school have joined a nationwide campaign to eradicate what they call the R-word as it is used today. Words are powerful. When strung together in careful and thoughtful precision, like a meticulously embroidered tapestry, they are beautiful, magical. They touch, inspire, break down barriers and connect us. But tossed about ignorantly, without attention or respect for meaning, and words wound. They tear us down and apart. “With any word, it’s not what you say,” Karen Riley says, “it’s what you mean when you say it.” Riley is an associate professor and chair of the educational research and policy department at the University of Denver’s Morgridge College of Education. She also has spent many years working with children who have neurodevelopmental

disorders, such as Down syndrome. In its clinical form, she notes, the word retardation is benign. It connotes anything that doesn’t move at the rate it should be moving — it’s slower or retarded. But that’s not how the word, in any of its derivative forms, is generally used today. “We know what it means,” one high school sophomore said, “but we just have a different definition for it.” The definition: An expression of exasperation. Stupid. Riley tells her students this true story: A mother pulling into a school accidentally bumped into the car parked in front. The driver of the parked car said to the mother, “What are you, a retard?” The mother then proceeded to help her child, with Down syndrome, from her car. The man apologized profusely. “Would it have been OK if she didn’t have a child with Down syndrome?” Riley asks. “As long as nobody is there to hear it, is it OK to use that word? If you know it’s hurtful, then why do we say it at all?” Retard, of course, isn’t the only word in this category. There’s the N-word, the derogatory term for African-Americans, and gay, which when used to mean dumb or ridiculous also implies homosexuals are lesser than others. Kim Gorgens, an

Magician thinking inside the box Littleton’s best-known young illusionist helping other kids Staff report Derek McKee, Heritage High School senior and magician, will be spending the week in a box. McKee is on the board of the Little Red Wagon Foundation, which works to help homeless kids. His concept is to represent them by living in a Plexiglas box on the 16th Street Mall for a week, performing magic much of the time. His hope is that people visit and fill the box with canned food, which he’ll donate to local food banks. Founded in 2005 by Zach Bonner, the Little Red Wagon Foundation helps thousands

assistant professor of psychology at DU and past chair of the American Psychological Association’s Committee on Disability Issues, would argue that even words like crazy and cripple fall into this classification. “These words become episodes that are so denigrating and so harmful to groups of people,” she says. “Recognizing how you play a part in that problem is really powerful.” But the R-word — with its connection to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities — faces a unique battle. “These are our most vulnerable members of society,” Riley says. “It’s difficult for them to advocate for themselves. … As a society, isn’t it our responsibility to make sure you’re not disrespected? If you can’t defend yourself, isn’t it our responsibility to do so?” Soeren Palumbo, whose sister has an intellectual disability, thought so. A graduate of the University of Notre Dame, he and Tim Shriver, a Yale University graduate, started the Spread the Word to End the Word campaign in 2009. Advocacy also has come from the federal government with Rosa’s Law, passed in 2010, which replaces “mental retardation” with “intellectual disability” in all federal legislation. Today, the Spread the Word campaign is a youth-driven effort by Special Olympics and Best Buddies, organizations that work with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and provide resources to schools to promote the campaign. The official annual day of awareness is the first Wednesday in March. “It’s been a huge platform for a lot of

young people in the schools,” says Mandi DeWitt of Special Olympics Colorado. Colorado, she adds, is one of eight states with the highest youth participation in such activities. At Castle View High School in Castle Rock, where Brenden attends school and where he was elected this year as Homecoming Royalty for his class, hundreds of students signed a pledge to stop using the R-word. As part of the campaign, they stopped at tables at the cafeteria’s entrance to scrawl their names on banners. “I’ve been saying that word for a while now,” one young man said. “I’ve not been the kindest. This is sort of a way to make me stop saying that.” “My friend said it the day before,” another student said. “I told her to not say that — `It insulted me.’ That’s not the way I am.” Pam Baker, Brenden’s special education teacher, fought back tears as she watched student after student sign the pledge. “They were part of history,” she said, “paving the way for others not to hear the word retarded and make it extinct.” In the cafeteria, the public service announcement plays. Students sitting at the tables look up at the screen. There’s Brenden. “I say `retarded’ is the wrong word to say,” he says to his audience. “And that’s what I know.” That’s what we should all know.

of kids a year by distributing “Zachpacks,” which contain basics like hygiene products and food along with creature comforts like toys and coloring books. “When I first met Zach almost two years ago, I became fixated with finding some way to make a difference like he did,” said McKee. “After long sessions of thinking and talking with friends, family and mentors, I came up with this project I like to call `24/7.’ It’s a way to raise awareness about Denver’s homeless youth and to have the most unique canned-food drive in the state.” More than 1,500 youth and teens in Denver alone spend their nights on the streets. “This subgenre of kids are the most likely to be bullied, beaten up, put into sex slavery and abused, and are the mostly likely to die at a young age,” notes McKee.

Stars shine at ACC outdoor party School’s astronomy department hosts telescope get-togethers By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com People lined up on the green carpet at Arapahoe Community College March 15 to see some major stars in the spotlight. “I like looking at the stars,” said Will Thole, who was there to meet new people. “And the moon, and I’ve never seen Jupiter before.” He not only saw Jupiter, but its four largest moons, as well — Io, Europa, Ganymede and even the elusive Callisto, once it emerged from the clouds. Astronomy professor Jennifer Jones was the biggest celebrity of the night, the second Star Party of the semester. She welcomes students and the community to gaze through an 8-inch Cassegrain telescope at the wonders of the universe. She leads them through a tour of the sky, pointing out Betelgeuse in Orion’s belt, the eighth-brightest star, and Sirius, the brightest of them all. Betelgeuse is a particulary interesting star, she explains, because it’s nearing the end of its life. Soon — maybe tomorrow,

Arapahoe Community College students use a large telescope to peek at Jupiter and some of its moons during a star party hosted by the astronomy department on March 15. Chilly temperatures and spotty cloud cover made viewing challenging, but students seemed to enjoy the experience. Photo by Deborah Grigsby maybe 30,000 years from now — it will explode and supernova.

Euclid Middle School creating community asset jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Gary Hein, principal of Euclid Middle School, envisions a playground where kids can play, seniors can stroll and babies can bounce. He’s working with the city, South Suburban Parks and Recreation and Tri-County Health Department to make it a place that will draw not just kids, but the whole neighborhood. “This area will act as a magnet not only to students at school, but to all the neighborhood children,” said Hein. “Euclid Middle School is located in the heart of a residential area. We expect this outdoor area to be a centerpiece for neighborhood activity.” While the basketball courts are well used by students and others now, there are tetherball and foursquare courts that aren’t used so much. Planners suggest gardens, natural boulders, more trees and a play area with equipment for climbing, spinning, bouncing and resting. “Enhancing these areas will make a positive impact on the existing campus,

about the size and the scope and the vastness of space. If I can share that with my students and the community, that would be great.” Despite the cold weather, abated by warm beverages and cookies, about 40 people attended. One was Tyler Bills, 8, who was surprised by how Jupiter looked through the telescope. “I didn’t think I would see all those stripes on it, I thought it would be just a bright star,” she said. Her friend Drew Whitney, 7, was quick to note there couldn’t be life on that planet because it’s just a ball of gas. He does have a unique perspective on other planets, however. “There’s not life on Mars — yet,” he said, holding out hope that creation is just beginning there, considering scientists recently announced that the Mars Rover found elements that could sustain microbial life. Jones encourages people to bring their own telescopes to the party, and is excited the college is adding two 11-inch telescopes to its collection soon. The next party is April 1 at 8 p.m. on the west lawn of the college. “We want it to be a party-like atmosphere,” said Jones. “And, of course, it’s a nerd’s definition of a party. `Hey, it’s a telescope. Let’s party!’”

providing increased physical activity opportunities and strengthening the pride of the students at Euclid Middle School and the community at large for years to come,” reads the final proposal. The project is part of Tri-County’s “Active Schoolyards, Active Minds” initiative, which allowed Littleton Public Schools to work with the Colorado Center for Community Development to design the improvements. The study and design were funded by a grant from the Centers for Disease Control. “The ultimate aim of this planning process is to strengthen schools and their surrounding communities by designing schoolyards that promote social interaction, readiness or increased capacity for learning, and target the obesity epidemic through physical activity,” reads the plan. Littleton City Council on March 5 authorized a resolution in support of the project for LPS to include with its grant application to Great Outdoors Colorado for $100,000 to help build the project. Mayor Debbie Brinkman suggested funding the remaining $25,000 out of the city’s fund that’s dedicated to open space acquisition and improvement. Councilors Jim Taylor and Jerry Valdes voted against her motion, saying if the school undertook fundraising efforts for the rest, it could increase community buyin for the project.

Senior houSing iS hot toPic in LittLeton Senior housing has long been a topic of conversation among city leaders. Census data suggests the average age of Littleton’s population gets older by about 10 years every 10 years. The median age increased from 31 in 1980 to 41 in 2010, and the fastest-growing population in town is seniors. People responding to a question on www.inspirelittleton.org are asked for options like senior-friendly apartments and patio homes suitable for downsizing into, perhaps at the Marathon property or mixed throughout the community. During a community forum last summer, Glen Van Nimwegen, the city’s director of community development, said it wouldn’t surprise him to see senior-friendly options on the Marathon site, which is currently under review for a proposal that will include up to 900 residential units and some retail. More options for seniors to stay in Littleton would mean the houses they raised their children in would open up for young families, which benefits the school district, retailers and the city’s tax base, said Van Nimwegen. Current options include senior living at Amity Plaza and Bradley House and assisted living at Libby Bortz, all operated by South Metro Housing Options. Private options include the 13-story RiverPointe Senior Community and Highline Place, a private dementia-care facility on Broadway that is nearing completion and accepting residents.

Police dogs get special training World-renowned handler visits Highlands Ranch By Ryan Boldrey

Jimmy Vanhove has been involved with training attack dogs his entire life. After growing up watching his father ply the trade, the Frenchman has made a life for himself as one of the world’s most renowned trainers of police and military dogs. Vanhove, who moved to the United States just a little over two years ago, is the lead decoy trainer for i-K9 in Alabama and travels the country working with police dogs. One look at his black-and-blue, scratched-up biceps and you know his is not the normal line of work. “I’ve been bitten lots,” he said. “For the dog, it’s just fun. It’s not like they want to hurt people. But once a dog bites, I want him to stay on the bite. I don’t want 20 bites. I want one bite in one place.” Vanhove wears a bite suit when training the dogs in order to not get bitten too badly, but he doesn’t seem to mind when the dogs get the best of him. His technique, which has won numerous European competitions, involves distracting the dog to the best of his ability, all while teaching the dog to stay on the bite. He spent three days recently at Warriors Youth Sports in Highlands Ranch, working with five members of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office K-9 Unit, two from the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office unit and one dog from Commerce City. “He is here for two purposes: One is to teach our people how to decoy properly and two is to problem-solve any problems we have with our dogs, to teach them to bite correctly,” said Douglas County Sheriff’s Deputy Todd Tucker. Tucker, who has been with the de-

Loki, Douglas County Sheriff’s Deputy Greg Black’s K-9 patrol dog, waits attentively during a training exercise Feb. 27 in Highlands Ranch. partment for 10 years, formerly working in undercover narcotics, just started working in the K-9 Unit in January. His dog, Zoos, is one of five in Douglas County’s unit. Each of the dogs goes through a 15-week training process before being allowed in the field. Zoos just started that training. “No one has really taught him what to do yet,” Tucker said. “He knows he is supposed to bite, but he may not be doing it correctly. Jimmy makes sure all the dogs are biting in the right places. You want them to be equal-opportunity biters. A lot of dogs will just bite legs, because that’s what they like, but they need to bite high as well.” The dogs, all shepherds and milanese, can apply between 800 and 1,200 pounds of pressure with one bite. Aside from aggression training, they are also taught how to track and sniff out drugs. Each of the Douglas County dogs is selected from Von Liche Kennels in Denver, Ind., where more than 5,000 agencies get their dogs. As members of the K-9 Unit they get to go out on all of the “cool calls,” says Deputy John Glassburner, who has been involved with Douglas County

K-9 since 1998, and like the other officers lives with his partner, 5-year-old KOA. “I tell everybody I have a take-home car and a take-home dog,” Glassburner said. “All the dogs we get from Von Liche are very sociable. They have great temperament. My kids, they wrestle with him, they play with him, and they give him treats.” While sociable at home, the dogs are all business in the field, which can make it difficult on the officers when they have to send their partners out in front of them to scope out a dangerous situation — such as when multiple agencies convened on a manhunt in Parker two weekends ago. “He’s my dog, yet he’s a Douglas County dog,” Glassburner said. “It makes it hard. You are always waiting for that one moment where he goes around that corner and you hear that pop and then when you don’t hear it you are glad he’s coming back, but you have to remember that’s their job. I love that dog to death, but I’d rather my dog die as a hero than one of the SWAT guys or the patrol guys.”

Dispensary gets license after lengthy battle CannaMart filed suit against city in 2010 By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com CannaMart’s three-year battle with the city appears to be nearing an end, thanks to an open slot in the four-dispensary limit. The Littleton Licensing Authority voted unanimously March 13 to approve the dispensary’s medical-marijuana license after a deal was worked out that will hopefully settle a lawsuit that’s been ongoing since June 2010. CannaMart’s owners sued the city after it was denied a license despite being operational since September 2009. “I assume litigation would continue if this is not approved,” said Bob Hoban, CannaMart’s attorney. Deputy City Attorney Kristen Schledorn says she hopes this will settle the matter. In November, the state appeals court affirmed the district court’s ruling that the city’s licensing authority properly denied CannaMart a license. CannaMart asked the Colorado Supreme Court to review the case in December and had been waiting to find out if that would happen. Council limited the number of dispensaries in city limits to four in January 2010. At the time, there was disagreement between the licensing authority and the city manager as to which four of the six that had set up shop were operational first. City Clerk Wendy Heffner wrote to CannaMart owners that they were in the first four, but the licensing authority ruled they were last. CannaMart sued and has been operating without a li-

Photo by Jennifer Smith cense ever since. “It’s not the wild, wild West out there,” owner Stan Zislis told the authority, saying they remain open under court order. “It’s all legal.” Zislis said the city attorney approached him with the deal last October after one dispensary closed, leaving an available license. Under the agreement, CannaMart will move to a new location, 1080 W. Littleton Blvd.,

qualifying it to apply anew. It will build out the space to conform to all state and local requirements for a dispensary, then apply to transfer its state license to the new site. Once approved, it will immediately cease business at the old location at Arapahoe Road and Broadway and begin selling to patients in the new building, which Hana Designs salon has vacated but still owns. “I tend to be a little bit more open-mind-

ed,” said Hana, who goes by just one name. A breast-cancer survivor herself, she uses edibles to cope with the aftermath of the disease, including insomnia. A main focus of her business is styling for women with medical conditions that affect their hair, and she carries an extensive line of wigs. CannaMart is leasing the entire 4,000-square-foot building from Hana, who moved across the street into the former Baker Interiors building. CannaMart will sublet half of it back to itself, conforming to the 2,000-square-foot legal limit on dispensaries. Coincidentally, the state task force working on how to implement Amendment 64 just recommended allowing dispensaries and retail pot stores to operate out of the same building, as long as they are separate businesses with distinct entrances. “Our plan would be to stay on top of the game,” said Zislis. Zislis said business has grown every year. Since opening, they’ve paid about than $1.2 million in wages and more than $107,000 to the city in sales tax. “We want to continue serving the Littleton community,” he said. “The only reason we’re really moving is to comply with the city ordinance.” Their current landlord said they’ve not caused any problems, never been late with their rent and have been great tenants. “We’re going to miss them,” said Seth Elken. Patient Neal Hirsch said they’ve always given him good advice, and he always felt safe visiting the facility. “Not that Littleton is a place where you have to worry about somebody pickpocketing you,” he said.

Pot recommendations are a handful Transient arrested State task force creates a pile of work for lawmakers By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews. com It’s 166 pages long and it contains 58 regulation recommendations — some will be more complex and controversial to deal with than others. So it’s no wonder that state lawmakers are going to have to work overtime to get through a report from the Amendment 64 Task Force in time to meet a deadline for putting in place rules dealing with November’s voter-approved marijuana legalization in Colorado. A newly created legislative committee began its work on implementing the task force regulations on March 15. The

Joint Select Committee, which is made up of Democrats and Republicans from both houses of the General Assembly, heard testimony on how best to go about crafting pot rules that must be ready for enforcement on July 1. If lawmakers can’t create legislation this session that deals with a myriad of issues — such as putting in place protections for children, figuring out how to deal with tourists, and how the new marijuana industry is taxed — then the state’s Department of Revenue will put rules in place without input from lawmakers. “We’d prefer not to implement rules without the guidance of the General Assembly,” said Department of Revenue head Barbara Brohl, who also is the co-chair of the task force that was put in place by Gov. John Hickenlooper.

Because of that, the committee’s House chairman, Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver, said members should expect to meet several times through the remainder of the session in order to complete their work. “We are going to have, I’m sure, a lot of discussion and debate about what should and shouldn’t be included in this legislation ....” Pabon said. As if their job isn’t difficult enough, committee members also must take into consideration the federal government’s role in all of this. The state still doesn’t know whether the U.S. Department of Justice will intervene in Colorado’s new marijuana industry, by way of federal drug enforcement or even a lawsuit. “This is a concern for everyone in government and everyone in the state,” Brohl said.

after burglary report Police catch man following teen’s 911 call By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com On March 5, a 19-year-old woman called 911 to report a stranger had entered her family’s home in the 2400 block of West Jamison Way, near Mineral Avenue and Jackass Hill Road. Littleton police officers arrived quickly and surrounded the house. They caught Gregg Kristopher Gregg, 29, exiting the rear of the home. Gregg is a transient and has no known address. Police found packages, apparently taken from porches in the neighborhood, inside a stolen car associated with him. Gregg was booked into the Arapa-

hoe County jail on charges of seconddegree burglary, aggravated motor vehicle theft and theft. Bond is set at $60,500. Police have not said whether the incident could be related to two home invasions last fall. On Aug. 22, a robber or robbers forced their way into a home on Knox Court in Littleton. On Sept. 30, the same thing happened not far away in Bow Mar. Both incidents happened between 8 and 10 a.m. LPD confirmed the two incidents happened but no other details. They were working with the Columbine Valley Police Department to increase police presence in the area and seeking any leads from the public. Anyone with information regarding these incidents should contact the Investigations Division of LPD at 303795-3890. Police are encouraging residents to make sure they know who is at the door before opening it, and never hesitate to contact local law-enforcement agencies to report suspicious individuals, vehicles or circumstances.

City attorney job up in the air Position might be changed to outside contract By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Bucking history and trends, Littleton City Council will review proposals from law firms to fill the role of city attorney rather than immediately replace Kirsten Crawford, who resigned in February. “The trend is to move in-house,” City Manager Michael Penny told council on March 12. But he wants to explore using contract services, which could range from filling the position to providing all of the city’s legal services.

Penny’s staff report notes that recent turnover might lead potential candidates to view the position as in flux, resulting in less desirable applicants wanting more incentives to take the job. Crawford held the job for less than a year after Suzanne Staiert’s controversial firing in 2011 after just three years. “Because of this, it is not recommended that the city attorney position be in-house staff at this time,” he wrote. He also wants to cut the position to half time, while Deputy City Attorney Kristen Schledorn’s position would remain fulltime. That could be accomplished, he said, by leaning more on department heads and attorneys with Colorado Intergovernmental Risk Sharing Agency, of which the city is a member. “The administrative staff needs to take a stronger role and responsibility in knowing

the code,” said Penny. He said a firm would have wider resources than an individual, which could reduce the need for using specialized attorneys for things like land-use issues — likely to increase given renewed interest from developers. In 2009, the city spent about $24,000 on outside legal services and nearly $500,000 on internal legal personnel. This year’s budget anticipates those numbers to be $77,550 and $433,370, respectively. Penny sees value in having someone in the office every day, but noted a contractor could have regular hours there. Other staffing questions are up in the air for the department, which includes Schledorn, a legal administrator, City Prosecutor Tricia McCarthy and her assistant. “The need for legal support services would need to be evaluated under this op-

tion, as a firm may be able to provide support services and existing city staff duties reassigned to reduce costs,” he wrote. Personnel and operational costs for the four-person office are about $221 an hour. Partners in private firms average $180 to $210 an hour. “Although initially discussed as a potential cost savings, the option selected must provide the staff and council with highquality legal representation, and it is very important that individual or option selected `fits’ with the city,” wrote Penny. Only Councilor Peggy Cole was against Penny’s proposal, saying she wants to keep the job full-time and in house. “It just has a stronger feel and connection to the community,” she said. “I’m OK with going for an RFP (request for proposal), because we always can turn it down if we don’t like it,” said Councilor Jim Taylor.

Official received extra payout upon resignation Deal gives former city attorney six months’ salary, benefits By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The city paid former City Attorney Kirsten Crawford six months’ salary plus benefits upon her resignation in February, three months more than her contract required if she had been fired. In exchange, she agreed to release the city from “any and all actions, claims and demands which exist” as of the date of the agreement. “This was a personnel matter and we cannot speak about the details,” said City Manager Michael Penny. “What we can clarify is that the city’s insurance company,

CIRSA, was involved in this discussion and provided legal advice to the city. This was indeed a voluntary resignation. The city paid three months and CIRSA paid three months. We cannot speak further to the details, as this is a personnel matter and there are no additional comments from the city.” Penny released the “Resignation and Severance Agreement” March 14. It waives the requirement that Crawford give 45 days’ Crawford notice and forbids her from ever applying for any position with the city. Crawford signed the agreement on Feb. 5, the same day she submitted a letter of resignation to Mayor Debbie Brinkman. “I have been honored to serve the residents of the city of Littleton and to work

for the city,” Crawford wrote. “For personal reasons, however, I have decided to resign my employment as city attorney (immediately). I wish the city success in the future.” The announcement came 10 days after Crawford was placed on paid administrative leave, apparently at her request, following an hour-long city council executive session. On Jan. 29, Brinkman asked Crawford and Penny to wait in another room during their closed-door council meeting. When they reconvened, Councilor Bruce Stahlman moved to place Crawford on leave, pursuant to her request, until further notice. The motion directed her to remain available to the city during normal business hours. Councilor Phil Cernanec seconded the motion, and it passed unanimously. No acting city attorney was named. “I respect Kirsten’s decision and appreci-

ate her service,” Brinkman said in a Feb. 8 news release. “The city council and I wish her success in her future endeavors.” Crawford, who has not responded to requests for comment, was appointed city attorney on March 6, 2012, at an annual salary of $133,428. She replaced Suzanne Staiert, whom council fired on the same day she filed an EEOC complaint against the city in September 2011. Staiert went on to become deputy secretary of state. Council is looking at potentially farming the job or even the whole legal department out to a firm. Penny said the recent turnover might lead potential candidates to view the position as in flux, resulting in less desirable applicants wanting more incentives to take the job. In the meantime, Deputy City Attorney Kristen Schledorn is holding down the fort.

r Gun measures go to governor

Background suputieschecks, magazine r thelimits await hour. 80 to signature

otenBy Vic Vela must vvela@ourcoloradonews. highcom very electTwo more gun bills await Gov. John Hickenlooper’s ainst signature, following another keep week of polarized debate on firearm-related legislation in nnecthe General Assembly. A bill that would put in quest place universal background urn it checks on gun sales and r Jim transfers has now cleared the General Assembly, after getting one last round of debate in both the House and Senate on March 15. House Bill 1229 had previously passed both chambers, but lawmakers had to take up the bill again to deal with some minor amendments. Earlier in the week, on March 13, the House also

passed House Bill 1224, which limits high-capacity ammunition magazines to 15 rounds. That bill had already passed the House last month, but lawmakers in the lower chamber had to vote on the legislation again in order to deal with amendments from the Senate. As was the case with earlier votes on these bills, debate was lengthy and at times emotional. Democrats continued to make the argument that background checks and magazine limits must be put in place to prevent more criminals from terrorizing a state that is no stranger to mass shootings. And Republicans argued at length that the bills would do nothing to further community safety and would only make it more difficult for law-abiding citizens to exercise their Second Amendment rights. The same Democratic lawmakers who voted against the bills did so again last

week. Reps. Ed Vigil of Fort Garland, Steve Lebsock of Thornton and Leroy Garcia of Pueblo all voted against putting in place magazine limits. Vigil also voted against the background checks bill, along with Sen. Lois Tochtrop of Thornton. All Republicans voted against both measures. House Bills 1224 and 1229 join the previously passed House Bill 1228 — which requires that gun buyers pay for their own background checks — as three major pieces of Democratic-sponsored guncontrol legislation that have now reached Hickenlooper’s desk. The governor is expected to sign all three bills into law. Two other gun-control bills continue to work their way through the legislature: Senate Bill 195, which bans exclusive online training for those seeking concealed handgun permits; and Senate Bill 197, which would prohibit domestic-violence offenders from having access to guns.

Bill seeks privacy for child victims Judges would gain leeway in clearing court sessions By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com A bill that would give judges greater discretion when deciding whether to clear a courtroom during testimony involving cases of child sex abuse is making its way through the legislature. Under Senate Bill 198, courts would have the option of closing the courtroom to the public and the press “when it is in the best interest of the child” who is involved in the case. That includes when sexually explicit photographs of children are being shown, or when a child is testifying about sexual abuse. The bill also would allow courts the option to close the courtroom whenever forensic interviewers provide testimony that is “directly related” to the child. The bill’s sponsor, Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, said during a March 13 hearing before the Senate Judiciary Com-

mittee that “we absolutely need to make this clear in our statutes.” “It is just putting the child in such a horrible place (whenever they have to testify about abuse in front of others),” Jahn said. Tammy Pitzen, the program manager of the Colorado Springs-based Safe Passage, which assists children who are going through abuse cases, said that having children testify about sexual assault in front of TV cameras and strangers ends up “re-victimizing” them. “We ask child sex assault victims to do what none of us would feel comfortable doing,” Pitzen said. Jahn said that she “worked out First Amendment concerns” before presenting the bill. A committee-approved amendment to the legislation that was presented by Colorado Press Association changed the language to say that the court could close the proceedings “if it determines that the best interest of a child in a closed proceeding overrides the public interest in an open criminal proceeding.” The bill passed the committee unanimously and is expected to breeze through the legislature.

It is your duty (dooty)! Picking up after your dog goes further than making your neighbors happy. When you are out walking your dog, it is your duty to collect their waste. Often, the trails and parks we enjoy with our dogs are adjacent to creeks and reservoirs. Dog waste that is not collected gets carried away during rainstorms to nearby waterways and can be a significant source of pollution. Unlike one might think, dog waste is not a fertilizer. Rather, it carries harmful bacteria like E. coli, which poses serious health risks if allowed to come in contact with water. Local stormwater agencies are teaming together to bring you this message.

opinions / yours and ours

a land with problems, a nation with laws The comments of Weld County Sheriff John Cooke, reported in the Greeley Tribune, are making waves and being picked up in national news. His words put him squarely in an informal group of so-called rogue sheriffs. According to news reports, Cooke said he is not interested in enforcing two particular bills – one expands background checks on firearms purchases and the other limits ammunition magazines to 15 rounds. In other reports, El Paso Sheriff Terry Maketa, who takes umbrage with the legislative process and bills being developed for gun control, seems to be part of the club. Yeehaw. Many of us like to think there is a little bit of frontier left in the culture of Colorado life. Some like to think being on the frontier means having the right to

our view be left the heck alone and not bother with too many laws. But even out West — now and in decades gone by — we expect the guy behind the star to stand with the law, whether right, wrong or otherwise — it’s the law. That’s why we appreciated the comments of Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson, who broke his silence on the thorny gun debate and voiced some choice words worth repeating in full. “For a public safety professional to suggest they can determine the constitutional-

ity of an issue and establish public policy based on that ill-conceived notion, would be tantamount to a police officer arresting an individual, determining guilt and sentencing the individual to incarceration in the county jail,” Robinson said. “This is not how our principle-based, constitutional system, functions. We are a nation of laws.” Robinson has it right, but in trying to understand the others, we don’t have to look far. The more than 1,700-word position paper by the County Sheriffs of Colorado opposes limiting magazines — calling for the need to have enough rounds to end a threat — and opposes extending background checks and registration, stating the government “does not have the right to know who owns a firearm or for what reason when used for lawful and peaceful

purposes.” Further the paper strongly states it is not the appropriate time to introduce gun control legislation because decisions likely will be made on “emotion rather than reason” following the recent shootings in Aurora and Sandy Hook. It suggests that gun control bills be tabled for “at least a year to encourage rational deliberations before any decisions are made.” Given these perspectives, it is easy to see why some sheriffs are riled with the actions at the Statehouse. So we commend all cool-headed sheriffs who know their roles through thick and thin, and perhaps understand that the debate involves tough questions the citizenry and its lawmakers must face involving the constitutional right to bear arms and pressing concerns about gun violence.

for joint. The personal exemptions and itemized deductions start to phase-out on income over $250,000 for single filers and $300,000 for married taxpayers. There is also now an additional tax on investment proceeds. The Net Investment Income Tax (NII), also known as the Unearned Income Medicare Contribution Tax, became effective this January. This was passed as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. The 3.8 percent surtax on investment income will be assessed at $200,000 for single filers and $250,000 for married couples filing jointly. Rental income, annuity payments and capital gains may be included in the type of income taxed at the new rate. The most significant changes were on joint incomes over $450,000 where the highest bracket of 39.6% was reinstated as well as long-term capital gains and qualified dividends rates increasing to 20 percent. For this group of taxpayers, the above-mentioned phase-out rules could add another 2 percent to their taxes in addition to the added payroll and investment tax. This will be a crucial year for tax planning for anyone with executive base pay, two-earner incomes, college expenses and retirement plans. One advantage is we already know what the tax brackets and calculations will be for 2013 and 2014. Therefore, it may be prudent to adjust your financial plan and business strategies now Kummer continues on Page 11

Trying my hand at barter system “Do you believe in bartering?” That was the question I received recently from a loyal reader in the community. First she asked me if I believed in the barter system, and if my answer was yes, the second question she asked was around my willingness to barter with her for our respective services. I found the offer intriguing, as the services she offered could really help me professionally. And based on the status of her personal and professional life, she could probably benefit from some business and life coaching. Other than helping some friends and associates out from time to time, or volunteering to do some coaching or a keynote speech for a not-forprofit organization, school, or association, I never really considered the concept of bartering before. Before going down the rationalization exercise, I had to make sure it was in alignment with my belief system. It was. So I decided to analyze the opportunity and I started with my own question, “Is there truly mutual value and benefit in trading the services we both offer?” After consideration, my answer was yes. Next question, “Would I have the time to apply to make sure I could live up to my end of

the bargain?” Again the answer was yes. The last question was more about doing my due diligence to make certain that the person I was going to swap services with was legitimate and would also complete the deal. The answer was also yes. The more I thought about it and socialized the idea with some friends and business mentors, the more I became comfortable with the idea and my willingness to engage grew stronger. I also found out that the barter system is alive and well, and quite possibly thriving in the current economic climate. Again, I have had inquiries and requests to donate my time and services, and if at all possible I will absolutely do that every time that I can.

But the barter concept is something I am going to test a little further. There are certain products and services that I can use or benefit from right now, and I know the companies or people who can offer them to me could probably benefit from or enjoy some business or strategic planning, coaching, mentoring, training, or a keynote speech. I know, I know, cash is king and we live in a society where paying for products and services is the norm. I am not saying that we should move to a complete barter system, not even close. I am just going to explore this a little more, test the waters a little bit and see if mutual value can actually be gained through the barter process. I would love to hear your thoughts on the barter system. Especially if you find yourself in need of any of the services I can provide and want to discuss how we might bring value to each other. You can email me at gotonorton@gmail.com and together we can make this a better than good week.

Denver Water Prepares for Drought Conditions and Beyond The Denver metro area must brace for one of the driest summers in a decade, the leader of the state’s largest water utility told a group of business leaders from the South Metro Denver Chamber this week. Denver Water CEO Jim Lochhead hosted about 30 of the chamber’s members and special guests at the utility’s headquarters Monday to talk about drought conditions in 2013 and what the utility is doing to prepare for the coming years. “We are facing a future of increasing uncertainty,” Lochhead told the group. “Drought, forest fires and the potential for increased demand stemming from climate change are things we have to be prepared to deal with as they will significantly challenge water supply managers across the West. In addition, aging infrastructure, consumer risk tolerance, economic uncertainties, growth and a changing regulatory environment are challenges for the future. “ The luncheon, which was co-sponsored by the Chamber’s Energy and Sustainable Infrastructure Council, brought business leaders from across the region to meet and talk with Lochhead about what the challenges are and why we’re facing them. Lochhead warned that despite recent snow events, the region is facing the driest summer conditions since early 2000. And that unless there are drastic climate shifts that bring more water, the utility will be forced to impose restrictions on customers that would include twice-a-week watering restrictions, asking restaurants to serve water by request only and working with businesses like car washes to limit consumption. “Even though we’ve seen some great snow in the metro area, our water supply comes from the mountains, and prior to this weekend, we needed an additional 8 to 10 feet of snow in the high country to help us out of the drought,” Lochhead said. “Prior to this recent snow, our snowpack in Denver Water’s watersheds is approxi-

mately 60% percent of average. “We have learned a lot of lessons from the 2002-2004 drought,” he added. “We think that we are about as prepared as we can be.” Part of those preparations involve the heightening of the Gross Reservoir dam in Boulder County, which would double the reservoir’s storage and enable Denver Water to have more in reserves for dry seasons. The utility has been bogged down for years through the permitting process to make the expansion happen and Gov. Hickenlooper has written to President Obama to try to speed up the federal process for getting approval to heighten the dam. Also, as part of Denver Water’s conservation efforts, the utility is forming a project with 17 entities to supply more customers in the south metro area. Once approved, the partnership, called WISE, which stands for Water, Infrastructure and Supply Efficiency, will provide new supplies by combining unused water in Aurora with unused supplies from Denver. During years when Denver and Aurora don’t need the water, 15 Douglas County entities that make up the South Metro Water Supply Authority will be able to purchase the unused portion to reduce their reliance on nonrenewable groundwater sources. The partnership is still being finalized, but Denver Water expects to start capturing unused water and selling it to South Metro in the next few years, Lochhead said. “Water is such a precious resource, and this really was a terrific opportunity for influential leaders in the south metro business community to hear and understand what is in store for us in the future,” Chamber President & CEO John Brackney said. “It’s important from a community standpoint that we get the word out to all the citizens that water conservation is important.” Business leader Jeff Keener, who heads

the chamber’s Energy and Sustainable Infrastructure Council, applauded Denver Water’s efforts for getting word out about upcoming conservation needs. “It’s important for Denver Water to do a good job to explain why, so people understand the restrictions,” Keener said. “For business development, I don’t think the upcoming drought restrictions will affect new construction for companies, because it sounds like Denver Water has done a good job to prepare for those eventualities. “I really have to take my hat off to everything Denver Water has done to serve its customers and the region as a whole in their conservation efforts and drought preparations,” Keener continued.

email sent to the commissioners on Jan. 27 painted a questionable picture of Crane, pointing to previous troubles while serving as operations manager for the Denver Election Commission in 2006, and what was called a “cozy relationship” with a voter check-in

Marijuana: Valdes is holdout against city moratorium Marijuana continues from Page 1

Littleton Councilor Jerry Valdes held firmly against his council’s moratorium, echoing Coffman’s concern about usurping the rights of the voters. “Did we put a moratorium on alcohol when it was being discussed it was going to be more available?” he asked.

“For some reason, I think just because it’s marijuana, we’re reacting this way.” DeGette said she was proud to join with Coffman on the federal effort. “In Colorado, we’ve witnessed the aggressive policies of the federal government in their treatment of legal medicinal marijuana providers,” she said in a news release. “My constituents have spoken, and I don’t want the

federal government denying money to Colorado or taking other punitive steps that would undermine the will of our citizens.” In addition to their hometowns, the two legislators represent portions of the south metro area, including all or parts of Englewood, Littleton, Columbine Valley, Bow Mar, Centennial and Highlands Ranch.

Chamber not just suits and ties Night at YMCA makes for some rowdy networking By Jennifer Smith

The South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce really knows how to throw a ball. And not just the fancy-gown, boring-music kind of ball you might expect from a chamber. We’re talking full-on, down-and-dirty dodgeball. About 120 chamber members traded their business attire for gym clothes March 12 and faced off at Littleton’s YMCA. They strategized and schemed, but it still came down to winning the oldfashioned way — get there first, keep your eyes on the competition, try not to trip over your own feet and duck when something’s coming at your head. “We are creating meaningful relationships in a new kind of way,” said Taren Shuck-Boehler, the chamber’s strategic events planner. “By pounding each other with dodgeballs.” The dodgeball throwdown was one of the chamber’s more unique celebrations of its monthly Business After Hours event, billed as “anything but stuffy.” Guests gather at member organiza-

tions with an eye to creative networking, key for a chamber with more than 1,300 members comprising more than 85,000 employees. “We’re getting to know each other on a personal level,” said ShuckBoehler. “It’s not just handing over your business card. That’s not what the chamber’s all about.” Mac Stringer of Bighorn Roofing

and Exteriors met new people by joining a “straggler” team that ended up winning all three of its games, proving the chamber’s philosophy that “individuals working together are a true force to be reckoned with.” “It was a ball,” he said. “The chamber’s a team, and when you’re part of a team, you have to come out. … It’s great to be able to be a part of a network instead of just networking.”

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS. Tri-County Health Department will conduct an exercise designed to test emergency preparedness procedures and the ability of staff members to dispense medication to a large number of people in a short period of time. The exercise is from 10 a.m. to noon March 21 at Arapahoe Community College, 5900 S. Santa Fe Drive; and at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, 500 Fairgrounds Drive, Castle Rock. Volunteers are needed, and they will receive packages of M&Ms to signify the distribution of antibiotics. MARCH 27 CAREER DAY. Arapahoe Community College will host a Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Career Day from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 27 in the Dining Hall

(Room M1900) at the Littleton campus. Law enforcement agencies throughout Colorado will be on hand to answer questions and distribute applications. All applicants must be 21 years of age. For more information or to inquire about accommodations, contact April Fox at april.fox@arapahoe.edu or 303-797-5793.

MARCH 30 EGG HUNT. The Friends of the Littleton Library and Museum will host their 47th annual Easter Egg Hunt at 10 a.m. March 30 in Ketring Park, 6000 S. Gallup St., just north of the Littleton Museum parking lot. In the past, the Easter Egg Hunt has been very popular, so much so that you should plan to be at the park by 10 a.m. sharp so your children can find some Easter eggs hidden in the trees and the grass. All children 10 years of age and under are invited. For information email Friends.Info@ yahoo.com. APRIL 10 MARIJUANA IN Colorado. Medical marijuana dispensaries have proliferated in Denver to the point where there are more of them than Starbucks locations or liquor stores. Recently Colorado voters legalized marijuana for recreational use, which conflicts with federal law. Join Active Minds from 3-4 p.m. April 10 as we seek to understand why this trend has exploded here and what the various arguments are in this debate. We will explore the legal issues, societal challenges, and

medical pros and cons of this interesting issue. Event is free and takes place at RiverPointe, 5225 S. Prince St., Littleton. RSVP to RiverPointe at 303-797-0600.

APRIL 15 ENROLL IN 4-H. Arapahoe County 4-H is welcoming new youth (ages 5-18) members and adult volunteers to join one of 13 local clubs or to start a new club.

Fighting Foreclosure & Promoting Hope intricacies of the short sale and because the banks really do not want homeowners to walk away, the team discovered the power of negotiation and the value of consistency in tearing down red tape. Thanks to their patience, persistence and a lot of hard work, Your Hope Team now has access to a bounty of valuable knowledge and resources to help those facing foreclosure fight it with discretion and dignity.

Since 2008, 3.7 million Americans have lost their homes to foreclosure according to a recent report by Corelogic. Today, there are 1.4 million homes currently in the foreclosure process. No matter the reason for falling behind, facing foreclosure is scary. Families in danger of losing their homes can be overwhelmed by stress and fear. They don’t know what their options are or where to turn for help. That is where Moe comes in.

It is imperative that homeowners in distressed situations have an agent who can deal with the complexities of a short sale. Your Hope Team can expedite this process, with an immediate plan of action that can bring relief and hope when it is needed most.

Motenia Rose-Deaver, “Moe” is a real estate agent in Jeffco and a top local producer. When the market took a devastating dive in 2007, she saw the desperation of the community. Homeowners, caught off guard, were facing a horrible crisis and had no idea where to find a path to relief.

The goal of Your Hope Team is to offer the emotional support to give homeowners a sense of being back in control of their lives, their homes and their dignity. These are hard times and they are determined to try to share their knowledge, experience and strength.

Moe decided to devote her time and talent to helping these homeowners in need. Adding to her 20+ years of experience in real estate, Moe became a Certified Distressed Property Expert in 2008 and has been pulling off the seemingly impossible since then.

“The only thing stronger than fear is HOPE!!”

Are you one of the following...

In January 2008, Moe formed a group called, “Your Hope Team” to reach out to the Jefferson County community and Denver Metro area. Moe and her team immersed themselves in the foreclosure process, determined to learn the inner workings. Along the way, they became well versed in the

Westin guest so impressed

Artist Kyle Banister letters a specialty golf cart for the Birmingham (Ala.) Barons minor-league baseball team. He paints a variety of subjects but any aspect of baseball is his favorite. Photos by Tom Munds

Sports artist is on the ball Works include portraits, golf carts, drawings By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Kyle Banister is a full-time artist with many talents and many interests. “I don’t have a favorite medium. I like them all,” he said with a smile. “As for subjects, I like to draw everything I see and I will do artwork on just about anything that stands still long enough for me to get to work.” He uses a variety of mediums including markers, acrylics and enamels and his subjects vary from a painting of a woman done on wood to his artwork on golf carts created for the Birmingham Barons baseball team. But he’ll tell you his favorite subject is baseball. His said his works are where baseball meets art. “I think baseball is the greatest game there is,” he said with a smile. “It’s simply a great metaphor for life. My grandfathers both loved baseball and encouraged me to play even though I was too small to really play the game.” He played youth baseball on the old fields at Englewood City Park, was sold in the 1960 for development of Cinderella City Shopping Mall. That early exposure, he said, planted the seeds of his love for baseball, and he likes to tell stories through his artwork centered on baseball. He said it isn’t just the players, but it also is about art about the inner workings of the game. He said he set out to try to make a living doing baseball art even though there wasn’t a big market for sports art in the Denver area. He said he was fortunate to make good connections doing art focused on baseball. He also branches out to other sports including wrestling, football and, most recently, hockey. He does some artwork for Root Sports, and a drawing he did for Root Sports of a portrait of Todd Helton done against a background of a baseball scorebook won an Emmy Award. He has a big date on opening day for the Rockies when, for the second year, he will be doing chalk art outside Coors Field. He said it was a hit last year on opening day and he was pleased to be invited back. He said he likes different media and doesn’t have a favorite, and he also is look-

One of the best parties I have attended lately took place March 13 inside the $5 million refurbished meeting spaces inside The Westin Downtown Denver Hotel. The event, which showed off the new digs of the mezzanine-level Continental Ballroom, renamed the Confluence Ballroom, as well as the ballroom foyer and all breakout meeting rooms. To unveil the renovation, The Westin’s sales team partnered with Destination Services Design Team to transform the space into specialty rooms such as a Molecular Microbrew bar, a Rock ‘n’ Roll sushi station and a soothing Spa-Ception room. “A major component of the project was leveling the mezzanine-level fixed-seat Tabor Auditorium to create an additional 3,000-square-feet of flexible meeting space,” said Tom Curley, the hotel’s general manager and owner Starwood’s area managing director. “This new space, called the Platte River Room, allows the hotel to service groups more effectively by offering additional dining and meeting space options.” Yes, the spruced-up space looked lovely, but the most outstanding aspect of the party was something I’ve never seen done in catering before: a salad martini bar. When I glanced over to that food station, I thought, “Oh no, another mashed potato bar. No thanks.” But when I saw socialite and philanthropist Susan Kiely munching salad in a martini glass, I had to investigate. Rather than heavy mashed potatoes, the station offered a healthy selection of salad ingredients mixed in a martini shaker (not stirred) with your choice of salad dressing. Bravo and brilliant!

In the limelight Kyle Banister adds the flames to his baseball bat creation he calls “Firewood.” Baseball is his favorite art work subject and other examples of his creations are on the table in front of him.

‘I think baseball is the greatest game there is. It’s simply a great metaphor for life. My grandfathers both loved baseball and encouraged me to play even though I was too small to really play the game.’ Kyle Banister ing for new fields he can explore with his art, which now includes doing body art. Banister said he had the bug to do art since he was a kid but everyone discouraged him, telling him his artistic talents were fine but he couldn’t earn a living as an artist. “I believed them so I never took an art class in high school,” he said. “Instead I took all those classes like algebra that I thought would help me get a steady job.” The former Englewood resident said he never gave up “playing with art” in every job he had, including painting designs on vehicles when he was in the motor pool in the Army. He lettered race cars and, while working for Burt Subaru, painted national ski team designs on their vehicles. He went on to start a sign company, and he said he called himself a graphic designer and not an artist during those years. He said life changed in 2001 when he took some classes and a couple instructors told him he was a good artist. They got be-

hind him and encouraged him to make use of his talents to pursue his desire to be an artist “I followed their advice, entered a couple art shows that led to my first solo art show and kicked off my career as a full-time working artist,” he said. “It was an emotional time and, while it would seem it would be a difficult decision to make such a major career change, it really wasn’t. It was so easy in some ways. My kids were grown and I was single, so I could do what I wanted to do. It proved to be the most important decision I have ever made.” He said his only regret was that he didn’t make the decision to become a full-time artist 40 years before, about the time he graduated from Alameda High School. Banister grew up in Englewood and attended Petersburg School through the fourth grade. His family eventually moved to Lakewood and he still lives in southern Jefferson County.

The 23rd annual Limelight Awards, which recognizes outstanding people and places that over the past year have embodied the true spirit of LoDo, took place Thursday in the refurbished McNichols Civic Center Building, on the corner of Colfax and Bannock. (Frankly, not my favorite space for an event because there is mostly metered parking and no valet.) But the event, despite the number of guests who were ticketed for expired meters, was a festive celebration put on by the LoDo District Inc. This year’s awards went to: Cares Award for philanthropic contributions to the neighborhood: Carol Ann and Paul Rothmann for the Downtown Denver Children’s Playground. Spotlight Award for a successful marketing campaign that brought activity to the area: Tom and Diane Coohill, owners of Coohills restaurant at 1400 Wewatta, for the Beats on the Creek concert series. Legacy Award for development projects that contribute to LoDo’s culture of historic preservation and innovation: Wazee Supper Club. Service Award for those who go above and beyond to aid LoDo District Inc: Rob Grey, LoDo District Vice Chair. New Business Award for a new neighbor who has made a notable impact: Springhill Suites Denver Downtown at Metro State.

‘Doubt’ features conflicted characters Parochial school is setting of powerful drama

IF YOU GO Cherry Creek Theatre is at the Shaver-Ramsey Gallery, 2414 East Third Ave., Denver. “Doubt” plays through March 31. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays; 6:30 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: $28 adults/$25 seniors and students. 303-800-6578, cherrycreektheatre.org.

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Cherry Creek Theatre has chosen one of the finest plays of the past decade as its season opener for 2013. “Doubt: a Parable” by John Patrick Shanley won both the Pulitzer Prize in Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play in 2005 and has a simple set and wonderful actors for this production, directed with great care by Richard Pegg. Pegg, of Highlands Ranch, also directed last season’s “Proof,” an equally challenging and rewarding drama. Hard act to follow! A lectern, with crucifix, is at the back of the performing space at Shaver-Ramsey Showroom, with an old oak desk and a few chairs as Sister Aloysius’ office at St. Nicholas School in the Bronx. A suggestion of a playground/garden is in front. Beautiful Oriental rugs on the walls give the feel of stained glass windows, and chairs are arranged on three sides of the stage area. Nine scenes move smoothly through this set — designed by Pegg — with no more changes than an occasional move of a chair. Lights go up on Father Flynn (Eric Tieze) preaching about uncertainty — setting the tone for what follows. “What do you believe when you’re not sure? What if no answer comes when you pray? ... When you are lost,

Eric Tieze (Father Flynn) and Anne Oberbrockling (Sister Aloysius) in Cherry Creek Theatre’s production of “Doubt.” Photo by Rachel Graham you are not alone …” Sister Aloysius (Anne Oberbrockling) and young Sister James (Rachel Graham) appear in the school office, discussing a child Sister James has sent home with a nosebleed.

We immediately tune into Sister Aloysius’ attitude to children — not a lick of sympathy. While Shanley has dedicated the play to nuns everywhere and based it on his own Catholic school experience, this mean-spirited woman seems to believe the

worst of everyone — and tries to enforce her wishes on all. Sister James is sweet and trusting and genuinely cares about her students. Oberbrockling owns this part, with tense manner and halo of negativity. She asks the young Sister James why she doesn’t send more eighth-graders to the office for discipline. Then she veers off on the evil of ballpoint pens — inappropriate for proper penmanship! This conversation moves to questions about Father Flynn’s protective relationship to a young black boy — the only one at the school — is it perhaps inappropriate? This drives the rest of the play, with a dramatic exchange between the seemingly vindictive nun and Father Flynn. There follows a powerful scene between the boy’s mother, Mrs. Miller (Ziedha Peterkin) — who just wants him to graduate from eighth grade, no matter what, so he can go on to a good high school — and the older nun who is focused on bringing Father Flynn down. With a splendidly written script, a quartet of accomplished actors and a prizewinning director, Cherry Creek Theatre has a sure hit on its hands. Reservations suggested.

21st-century creators practice ancient art Modern mosaics on display at library

if you go Highlands Ranch Library is at 9292 Ridgeline Blvd., Highlands Ranch. “Cutting Edges, a Group Show of Modern Mosaic Art” is on the second floor, on walls and shelves. Hours: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays; 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays; noon to 5 p.m. Sundays. 303-791-7323. Some of the artwork is for sale. Information is on each piece. The exhibit runs through March 29 during library hours.

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Cutting Edges, a Group Show of Modern Mosaic Art” fills the walls of the second floor at Highlands Ranch Library with 141 items by 18 members of Colorado Mosaic Artists, a statewide organization. In both two and three dimensions and created from glass, ceramics, metals, wood, floor tile and an assortment of other materials, these works catch the light and in the case of mirrors, reflect passers-by. This exhibit was open to all members and was not juried, said president Kathy Thaden and vice president Marlea Taylor. By contrast, in September, the group will hold a juried, seven-state show at Lakewood Cultural Center. Artists from Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona are eligible, and the deadline for entries in July 1. ( See coloradomosaics. org for details and link to an entry form.) Entries range from fairly traditional designs in glass or ceramic to others that use found items, such as Taylor’s compositions created from floor tile and Deborah Williams’ assemblage, “Quacker Jack,” which uses a duck form, bright glass tiles, bits of metal, a Cracker Jack box, a feather and other objects. (It can be found swimming on top of a bookcase.) Thaden has a sculptural work called

“Quacker Jack” by Deborah Williams is an assemblage on display in an exhibit of modern mosaic art at the Highlands Ranch Library through March 29. Courtesy photo “Visitation,” an image of Mary and Elizabeth, on the railing along the stairs. It’s intricately constructed of many small pieces and seems more related to traditional mosaics. Travelers see ancient mosaics in Roman and Oriental sites, as well as in Europe, but not so often in contemporary locations, until fairly recently. “There is no structured education in mosaic art in the U.S., but people with an art education come to it,” Taylor said. “It’s been a battle to have it viewed as fine art. “But we are now getting public art com-

missions.” An example is at 15th Street at Riverpoint Park, where there are three big panels of sculpted brick and ceramic — Native Americans coming out of the earth, a sitespecific piece. Another is at the Southglenn Library — a wall of aspen trees. Taylor’s students’ work is in a mural at the 20th Street Viaduct, she said. (Where Pagliacci’s used to be.) Durability is important for these outdoor works, Taylor said. One of the functions of the organization is to educate members about durability — another is to educate

the public that mosaics are a medium for fine art. Taylor, a longtime Englewood resident, recently retired from teaching art at All Souls School in Englewood. She also taught at Loretto Heights College and Arapahoe Community College as well as classes in mosaic art. For a time, she worked as a printmaker. She earned an MFA in art from Michigan State. Thaden has an art degree from CUBoulder and commercial art training from CCD. She worked as an art director in television for 25 years. “What attracts me to mosaics is the tactile aspects of creating … . The hands-on textural feel … the arrangement of color,” Taylor said. She also likes the recycle/reuse aspect — the joy of creating something new from old material. Thaden’s “Cosmic Light” incorporates a geode and metal clips. A walk along the wall brings the visitor to a skateboard deck and skis, each covered with a mosaic pattern, as well as mirrors, pictorial and abstract designs.

Local actors praise ‘Man of La Mancha’ Club’s grants Four from south suburbs appear in Arvada play By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com When lights go up at the Arvada Center for the March 26 opening of “Man of La Mancha,” four south suburban professional actors will appear in this award-winning musical by Dale Wasserman, Mitch Leigh and Joe Darion. All of them are strongly engaged with the show and its message. Joanie BrosseauBeyette, of Centennial, was returning home from a children’s play she staged at Stephen Knight School for Early Education when we reached her. In addition to performing, she works with Boulder’s Dinner TheBrosseauatre’s children’s theater, inBeyette cluding outreach. She will perform in the ensemble at Arvada, as a prisoner and understudy for Maria and the Housekeeper. She grew up in Littleton and started singing with the choir and performing at Euclid Middle School, with choir director Carla McWilliams, who still brings her students to Boulder’s Dinner Theatre, where this actor frequently appears. Heritage High School was next, where her focus was mostly choir and cheerleading. When she graduated, she started working at Heritage Square Music Hall, next moved to Boulder’s Dinner Theatre, where she has been much of the time since. “I intended to go to CU Boulder, but I just kept working … I had lots of practice!” Probably the most fun she’s had in a role is as Peter Pan — “There’s not a better experience for an actor.” “Man of La Mancha” is a special show, she observes. “It’s frighteningly current — out of so much pain and heartbreak , it’s definitely a dramatic, beautiful story.

if you go “Man of La Mancha” plays March 26 through April 14 on the Main Stage at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays; 1 p.m. Wednesdays; 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Tickets: arvadacenter.org, 720-898-7200. The true theme is `dream an impossible dream.’” Also a Centennial resident, Burke Walton is excited about his debut at Arvada Center — his first time working with awardwinning director Rod Lansberry. A Cherry Creek High School graduate, he majored in musical theater at Walton UCLA and has been working for six years in Los Angeles until a recent return to Colorado. (He appeared in “Sound of Music” at Town Hall in November/December.) He will be Anselmo, a muleteer, an ensemble member and understudy the Barber. He knew some of the “Man of La Mancha” music and did some research on the show before auditioning. “It’s a moving piece, teaches a message that will last and touches a special place,” he said. Next on his calendar will be “Hair” at Town Hall. Tenorio is Tim Howard’s role in “Man of La Mancha” Also a muleteer and ensemble member, this is his first time in this musical. “It’s beautiful music,” he said. He grew up in Centennial and is a graduate of Littleton High, where he Howard studied theater with John Kron, then graduated from Five Towns College, Long Island, New York. It’s popular with performing arts students, he said and he learned of it from a dramatics magazine.

He is carpooling to Arvada from his Centennial home with Walton and is also enjoying his first time working with Lansberry. His next appearance on stage will be in “Hair” at Town Hall, under Nick Sugar’s direction. Veteran actor Rod Costigan has lived in Colorado for 32 years and is a graduate of Smoky Hill High School and an Englewood resident. He was a performance student at Loretto Heights College in Denver when it closed. He moved Costigan to Regis University to complete his studies and has worked in the area for over 20 years — at Country Dinner Playhouse, Arvada Center and more. A member of Actor’s Equity, he has a special fondness for his role in “Singin’ in the Rain” (in the Donald O’Connor dancing role) at CDPH. And Costigan, who is repeating the role of the Barber for a second time, said about “Man of La Mancha,” “I love this show. There’s a wonderful message of hope, especially for today …. It’s really an honor to revisit at a different age, with a different perspective than seven years ago.” His parents were professional championship roller skaters and supportive of his aspirations in theater, and he dedicates his performance to them. He also works for a company called Rave Reviews Events, which produces corporate events and team-building exercises. And, he is a freelance props designer for area theaters — recently for “9 to 5” at Town Hall. “It’s funny trying to adapt to a different age group and career … I’m not sure what I’m right for. The voice changes with age. I still like to think I’m crooning wackadoo. It’s a different era.” It’s a complicated schedule, as is Brosseau’s, but both the more mature actors and the young ones seem to have developed a lifestyle that works for them.

An example of a 2012 project: Pierce Schell of Centennial asked for funding for his Eagle Scout project which involved building two cold frames to be used at the Franklin Community Garden, Franklin Elementary School, 1603 E. Euclid Ave., Centennial. His application described in detail how the frames would be built from PVC and plastic sheeting (fellow Scouts would assist) and used to extend the growing period for the gardens operated by Franklin students and parents. When not in use, they can be folded and stored. He had additional text on how students would benefit from learning to grow and cook vegetables and how this project would assist the volunteers. He requested $210. The application asks what the applicant would do if a smaller amount was granted and his answer was to cut back to one frame. Other requests in past years included the garden at the Colorado Center for the Blind in Littleton, a vegetable garden for students at Field Elementary School, several Scout projects and many more. Winners will be announced at the May 1 meeting of the Littleton Garden Club at 6 p.m. The group meets the first Wednesday of each month during the school year and welcomes visitors and new members. It meets in the lunchroom of the Littleton Public Schools administration building, 5776 S. Crocker St., Littleton.

Warriors’ run ends in Final Four Arapahoe girls fall to Highlands Ranch in Boulder By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com BOULDER - The season didn’t end the way Arapahoe girls basketball coach Jerry Knafelc had hoped. “We wanted to be that one team that is the happiest on the last day of the season,” Knafelc said. “Only one team gets to do that and it just wasn’t our turn. We had a great season, a lot more highs and lows.” Highlands Ranch, bolstered by a strong third quarter, notched a 64-54 semifinal Class 5A state playoff victory over the Warriors on March 14 at the Coors Events Center. Knafelc had eight seniors on his 12-player state tournament roster and 11 players took the court at some point against the Falcons as Arapahoe’s depth was a key that led to a 24-3 season. Senior Stacie Lukasiewicz was the Warriors’ leading scorer with a 9.4 scoring average as Arapahoe had six players average between averaging between 5.6 and 9.4 points per game. “We played 11 girls every game and some games played 13,” Knafelc said. “But every game we played a minimum of 11 girls. Every one of them knew they were going to play. Some got to play a little more than others. Everybody was there to contribute during critical minutes. “That was one of our strengths. Every team could play 11 players but to have 11 good players capable of scoring and defending at a really high level makes it dangerous and tough to stay with and teams that don’t play that many kids struggle late in the game against us because we were pretty fresh.” Arapahoe enjoyed the biggest lead of the see-saw first half against Highlands Ranch with a 22-17 margin. Highlands Ranch — which would go on to lose to Regis Jesuit in the title game — outscored Arapahoe 14-5 to start the third quarter and the Falcons led by 12 points at 49-37 with 5:35 to play. Lukasiewicz, who had a team-high 13 points, scored seven unanswered points for the Warriors, which trimmed the Falcons lead to five points, but that was as close as Arapahoe could come. Highlands Ranch went up by 11 with 90 seconds left in the contest.

‘We kind of hoped our fatigue factor had set in against Highlands Ranch but their players came down and made a couple key plays and put us back behind the 8-ball.’ Arapahoe coach Jerry Knafelc “We kind of hoped our fatigue factor had set in against Highlands Ranch but their players came down and made a couple key plays and put us back behind the 8-ball,” Knaflec said. “The competitiveness and character of our team really showed itself all season. It was exciting and a credit to our players for their commitment and their work ethic. I’m just proud that I was their coach.”
