Metro area may see patchwork of restrictions State to let local agencies decide COVID restrictions; plans unclear in many areas COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA STAFF
behavioral health expert in Highlands Ranch, said the pandemic created a lot of fear in adults, especially regarding health care. Messaging to stay home and avoid medical facilities went too far, causing fear, panic and anxiety, she said. When it comes to general health care, family-care physicians said the pandemic was a tough year. Because general care is sometimes considered non-emergent, many patients figured 2020 was a good time to take the year off from seeing the family doctor.
As state public health officials prepare to step back and let local health agencies decide what coronavirus restrictions to enact going forward, it’s unclear what the resulting landscape of policies will look like in the Denver metro area — and how broad the differences among them may be. The latest changes to Colorado’s system of restrictions — dubbed “dial 3.0” — took effect on March 24, making it easier for counties to move into level green, the least restrictive of the dial’s six levels. Dial 3.0 also removed most restrictions in level green altogether and relaxed limits for certain businesses in other counties. The state’s color-coded dial is the set of restrictions counties must follow based on the local spread of the virus. The system affects capacity at restaurants, other businesses, indoor and outdoor events, and other settings. Colorado originally implemented the dial on Sept. 15. After several months that saw changes to the dial system, that chapter of Colorado’s pandemic policy is coming to a close.

Patients skipping care worries physicians It could take years to catch up on screenings, immunizations and fallout from pandemic delays BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Scientists, doctors, and the world are starting to come to grips with the direct and indirect impacts the COVID-19 pandemic had on the healthcare system. That impact is not being measured by the number
of COVID cases, but instead, the consequences of a large percentage of society skipping preventive screenings and general health care in 2020. To assess the consequences of delayed care, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention commissioned a web-based survey last year. Of the adults surveyed, 40.9% admitted to delaying medical care for fear of being infected with COVID. An added 12% admitted they avoided urgent-care clinics and emergency rooms. An estimated 31.5% avoided general health care altogether. Kristin Orlowski, a UCHealth

Hickenlooper touts federal help at vaccine clinic American Rescue Plan, vaccines will help pull Colorado out of crisis mode, senator says BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Sen. John Hickenlooper paid a visit to an Englewood vaccination site on April 1, touting the impact of federal dollars as the race to vaccinate Coloradans against COVID-19 picks up steam. “It’s exciting to see people from all walks of life here,” Hickenlooper said after touring the site at the Malley Senior Recreation Center. “If we’re going to get past this pandemic and kickstart the economy, we’ve got to get everybody vaccinated.” The vaccination site, held at Englewood’s Malley Senior Recreation Center, is an “equity clinic,” focused on getting shots to people with more difficulty accessing care — people who are elderly, disabled, lack access to computers or face transportation challenges, said Katlin Wolff, a nursing supervisor with Tri-County Health.

The clinic was possible in part thanks to a $20 billion provision in the American Rescue Plan, a $1.9
trillion COVID relief bill passed by Congress in March, Hickenlooper said.
“This is really encouraging to see,” he said. “The faster we can get to whatever form of herd immunity we end up in, the faster we can fully open our economy, which is better for everyone and especially working people.” Arapahoe County stands to receive $130 million from the bill, and Englewood will receive roughly $7 million. How the city will spend the money hasn’t been decided yet, said Mayor Linda Olson, but she hoped to continue some of the small business and nonprofit grant programs the city undertook with federal CARES Act money in 2020. “We’ve still got a ways to go before the community is out from under this,” Olson said. The CARES Act went a long way in Englewood, Olson said. The city received more than $3.2 million from the bill. “It was incredible,” she said. “Without it we wouldn’t be where we are today. We’d have pandemonium in the streets.” In addition to projects to make city facilities more compliant with public health orders and facilitate teleworking for city staff, CARES SEE VACCINE, P10

New Mile High Thinking for Your Retirement
F
rom Larimer Square to the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Denver is truly a great place to call home and enjoy retirement. With the Rockies at your doorstep, there are virtually unlimited opportunities for adventure. Denver is also No. 3 on the list of America’s Best Cities* for a Healthy (and More Affordable Retirement). What you may not know is a reverse mortgage loan from AAG may help you get even more out of your retirement. A reverse mortgage is simply a way for you to convert some of your built-up home equity into cash for your retirement — cash to pay off large bills or high-interest credit card debt, make home improvements, cover medical expenses, build a bigger rainy-day fund, or simply get out and enjoy more of the Mile High City.
If you choose, you can wait to repay your loan when you permanently leave your home. Although a reverse mortgage requires no monthly mortgage payments, you are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of your home, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and, if required, HOA fees. “Working with Jarred Talmadge and AAG was a very nice experience,” said AAG customer Angela Pendergraft. “No pressure or feelings of anxiety. He answered all our questions and concerns leaving us feeling comfortable with our decision to do a reverse mortgage.” If you want to learn how a reverse mortgage can specifically improve your retirement, AAG Market Sales Manager Jarred Talmadge, NMLS# 1842043, and his team are ready to assist you.

Castle Rock family’s home damaged in fire Family pleased with community support and quick action from police and fire departments BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
While his family home sustained major fire and smoke damage, Castle Rock resident Jerry Powell said his family is quote fortunate due to community support, quick action of the police and fire departments, and the home’s alerts doing what they was supposed to do. “The house told us something was wrong, and we got out safely,” Powell said. “The alarms worked, everything worked correctly. We will just roll with the punches from there.” Fire alarms and security alarms went off at 4:24 a.m. March 29, Powell said. He woke up, opened the master-bedroom door and was overtaken by smoke. The entire house was filled with smoke. Powell asked his wife to call 911. He took his children, ages 7 and 9, outside and then ran back in looking for the source. Based on the smoke, he said it appeared
the backyard deck was on fire. He started throwing water on the flames through the glass door in the kitchen. After throwing a second bucket of water on the deck, Powell realized his efforts were futile. “The flames shot through the vents in the kitchen floor that told to me get out and wait for the boys with sirens,” he said. Powell said while his family is dealing with the loss of a home, he cannot express enough gratitude for the quick action and professionalism demonstrated by the Castle Rock police and fire departments. “The response from Castle Rock Fire and Castle Rock Police was superb,” he said. “It was superb in not just how they attacked the fire, but in how they treated my family with such kindness and compassion. We all complain about property taxes here, but I got every penny’s worth when my home caught on fire.” In investigating the cause of the fire, Powell said the entire basement went up in flames as well as portions of the kitchen floor. Investigators told Powell it appears field mice chewed through the rubber ring between an exhaust vent and SEE FIRE, P6

All Coloradans age 16-plus up for vaccine after April 2 BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The wait for eligibility is over for all adults and older teenagers in Colorado after coronavirus vaccine eligibility hit the general population starting April 2. All Coloradans over the age of 16 were to be eligible to receive the Pfizer vaccine, and all Coloradans over the age of 18 were to be eligible to receive the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines, according to a March 29 news release from the governor’s office. As the state moves through phases of vaccine scheduling, people in previous phases remain eligible, according to the state COVID-19 website. State officials anticipate that everyone who wants vaccine shots will have access before the end of May, according to the news release. Gov. Jared Polis emphasized it will take time for Coloradans to secure appointments. “It could be next week; it could be in five weeks,” Polis said in the release. “So while availability opens to everyone this Friday, April 2, be patient and know that your time will come.” Technically, eligibility for the general population is known as phase 2 in Colorado. The state may continue to prioritize by age in phase 2 if it remains constrained by supply, according to the state’s website. Polis called the effort to administer COVID-19 vaccines “one of the greatest feats in human history” in the news release. “Each vaccine is a step towards getting back to normal,” Polis said in the release. “Today is a monumental step forward in Colorado’s efforts to get vaccines to every person who wants one, and I want to thank our frontline heroes — both professional and volunteer — who have stepped up, racing to get shots into arms.” As of March 29, about 70% of all Coloradans 60 and older have been vaccinated, including 79% of all Coloradans 70 and older, 71% of Coloradans 65 to 69, and 53% of Coloradans 60 to 64, according to the release. More than 1.5 million Coloradans have received their first dose of a vaccine, and almost 1 million have been fully immunized, the release said. Mass vaccination sites underway Colorado recently launched six mass vaccination sites in locations around the state. Depending on supply, a maximum of 6,000 doses per day will be administered at each site six days per week for a total of 36,000 doses each week through the program, according to the release. So far, 35,322 doses have been administered through those sites. In recent weeks, Polis joined the launch of mass vaccination sites at the following locations: Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs, Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City and The Ranch Events Complex in Loveland, the release said.

On April 1, the state launched the final of the six mass vaccination site at Ball Arena in Denver. The state’s Equity Outreach Team is working with communitybased organizations, providers, local public health agencies and tribes to set up vaccine clinics in “underserved” communities across the state, according to the release. As of today, 111 clinics have been completed, with 10 to 12 clinics completed per week on average. More than 75 clinics scheduled through April 6 are expected to administer 30,400-plus doses, the release said. Polis also announced that Colorado will be launching mobile vaccine clinics to create more access in coming weeks. These buses will travel to “small communities,” the release said. More information was forthcoming as those clinics become operational. Not time to let guard down, data shows Polis’ office emphasized that it’s still a time for caution. Colorado’s coronavirus cases and hospitalizations continue on a plateau that shows signs of rising again, according to state data. “Emerging COVID-19 variants are cause for concern,” the release said. “For Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines, it typically takes two weeks for the body to build immunity after vaccination. That means you can be infected from exposure to COVID-19 just before or just after vaccination.”

Governor extends mask order, modifies it for green counties State order to last another 30 days; grocery stores, many other businesses not under requirement in green BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Setting up potential disputes for rural businesses, Gov. Jared Polis extended the statewide mask order but modified its requirements for counties in level green, the leastrestrictive stage on Colorado’s color-coded dial of pandemic restrictions. In July of last year, Polis signed Colorado’s first statewide mask order generally requiring masks to be worn in all public indoor spaces. The governor has extended the order every 30 days since then, according to a state fact sheet. Effective April 3, the order’s requirements changed for counties in level green, which includes many of Colorado’s rural areas. As of April 2, Gilpin was the only Denver-area county operating in green. The state’s color-coded COVID-19 dial is the set of restrictions counties must follow based on the local spread of the virus. The system affects capacity at restaurants, other businesses, indoor and outdoor events, and other settings. Colorado originally implemented the dial on Sept. 15. Among the dial’s six levels, green is the least restrictive. Purple, the most restrictive level, is a stay-athome order. Now, in counties in blue, yellow, orange, red and purple, masks must be worn in public indoor settings where 10 or more unvaccinated individuals or “individuals of unknown vaccination status” are present, the fact sheet on the modified order says. Effectively, the section about unvaccinated Coloradans doesn’t change much for most businesses. “Businesses or facilities should err on the side of assuming that people entering their indoor site are unvaccinated. With 1 in 6 Coloradans fully vaccinated, most indoor public settings like grocery stores, retail stores and gyms will need to require mask-wearing,” the fact sheet says. The larger change in the updated mask order is that the list of settings where masks are required in level green now only includes: • Schools, including preschool through grade 12. That includes extracurricular activities. • Child care centers and indoor children’s camps. • Public-facing state government facilities. • Health care settings, including hospitals, ambulance service
centers, urgent care centers and others. • Personal services, such as hair and nail salons, esthetician services, and body art professionals. • “Congregate care facilities,” including nursing facilities, assisted living residences, group homes and other care facilities. • Prisons and jails. In other words, many types of businesses — including grocery and retail stores, and others — are no longer included in the list of settings that require masks in level green. It remained to be seen how often businesses might decide to enforce their own mask requirements. Nothing in the updated mask order prevents a county or municipality from adopting more “protective” — stricter — standards than those contained in the order, according to its text. The order keeps exemptions that were in the prior orders, according to a news release from the governor’s office. People who are 10 years old and younger and those who cannot “medically tolerate” a face covering are exempt, according to the order’s text. For a full list of exemptions, see tinyurl.com/StateMaskFactSheet. The updated mask order comes on the heels of the latest changes to Colorado’s system of COVID-19 restrictions — dubbed “dial 3.0” — which took effect on March 24. With the arrival of dial 3.0, counties scattered across the state moved to level green. Twenty-eight of the state’s 64 counties were in that level as of March 26. Only a few counties had qualified for level green — also known as the “protect our neighbors” stage — in the past. As of April 2, the number of counties that are in level green was 31, representing a rough population of 238,000 Coloradans, according to the fact sheet. State officials expect that dial 3.0 will remain in effect until mid-April, at which point the state plans to retire the dial and implement a new public health order that gives local public health agencies greater control over what restrictions to enforce. Colorado’s mask order, an executive order from the governor, is separate from the state’s dial system of restrictions. As for whether the mask order will be renewed again when it expires in May, the state’s fact sheet said: “The governor, public health experts and the governor’s legal team review every executive order before expiration. We are closely monitoring disease transmission, hospitalizations and vaccination rates, and will consider these factors prior to the executive order’s expiration.”

The Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office is investigating an officer-involved shooting that left a man dead on April 3 near Castle Pines. The incident, which began as a report of a man with a gun, took place in unincorporated Douglas County on the east side of I-25 and Happy Canyon Road about 6:15 p.m., according to social media posts from DCSO and a spokesperson. A man killed in the incident has been identified as Samuel Yeager, 23, according to DCSO. More information on the incident was expected to be released April 5. No officers were injured during the interaction. “Consistent with policy, the involved deputies will be placed on administrative leave,” according to DCSO.

Residents on the east side of the interstate said it’s not uncommon for the area to see unusual activity and crimes. “It’s life on the highway,” said one resident, who also asked to be unnamed.

the brick, got into the wall, and chewed through the wiring. Powell said the scary part of the whole ordeal is understanding how an electrical fire can occur and how lucky they are to have gotten out safely. He said it will likely take six months or more to restore the house. While the fire was kept mostly in the basement, the entire home suffered extensive smoke damage, he noted. Powell said the toughest part of the ordeal is having his children go to bed one night and wake up to experience loss of their belongings. It is more difficult for a child
to lose important possessions, he said. “I have stressed to the kids that is it going to be important to spend time and energy finding solutions and move forward,” he said. “We will just work to stay positive.” Powell said staying positive is easier thanks to a community like Castle Rock. The Plum Creek resident said friends opened their homes to them, giving them an alternative to a motel room. The Dads of Castle Rock raised more than $5,000 in a short amount of time to help the family buy clothing and day-to-day items. “It has been absolutely humbling to see the outpouring of support is amazing. I am so proud of our community and the support we have received,” Powell added.

RESTRICTIONS FROM PAGE 1
State officials expect that dial 3.0 will remain in effect until mid-April, at which point the state plans to retire the dial and implement a new public health order that gives local public health agencies greater control over what restrictions to enforce. State-imposed restrictions may not completely fade: A draft policy framework for dial 3.0 in March mentioned a possible statewide public health order that would continue limits on indoor unseated mass gatherings. The draft also mentions a “snap back” for counties if local hospital capacity is threatened, suggesting state restrictions could return. The document discussed what a “statewide order post (April) 16” could look like. Meanwhile, Coloradans saw changes to the statewide mask order in early April. Gov. Jared Polis first issued the mask order in July last year. Now, the list of settings where masks are required in level green only includes schools, child care centers, health care settings, personal services such as hair and nail salons, and some other locations. Notably, many types of businesses — including grocery and retail stores, and others — are no longer among the settings that require masks in level green.

possible approaches with other public health departments across the metro region as well as local elected officials and would make decisions based on those factors,” said the statement from Becky O’Guin, a spokeswoman for TriCounty Health. Any possible restrictions in TriCounty’s area would consider settings most likely to be contributing to virus spread, such as spaces with poor ventilation where mask-wearing and social distancing are difficult to maintain and are frequented by unvaccinated people, the statement said. It’s unclear how long any local limits may last in Tri-County’s area. “Were we to decide it appropriate to implement restrictions, we would do so for as short a period of time as possible,” O’Guin said. What’s more, restrictions in Douglas County — whose leadership has been vocal in pushing for state restrictions to end — could look different than those in Adams and Arapahoe. “We know that Douglas County has a strong preference that restrictions end as soon as possible. We are planning a meeting with county leadership in the near future to discuss mutual perspectives about appropriate steps moving forward,” O’Guin said. If the governor lets the state mask mandate expire in coming weeks, spotlight shifts to TriCounty’s existing mask order, which many localities have opted out of. SEE RESTRICTIONS, P9

To avoid confusion with state policy, Tri-County amended its mask order in July to mostly align with the statewide mask order that took effect July 16. Tri-County’s order, like the governor’s order, requires people to wear masks in public indoor spaces. But one difference is that TriCounty announced it would extend its order “for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic,” the agency announced in an Oct. 20 news release. Now, the agency appears likely to take a wait-and-see approach. “Studies and data have proven that mask-wearing is one of the most cost-effective prevention measures available, and we believe that it makes sense to continue our mandate until we see the impact of the easing of community restrictions and the spread of variants on measures of disease severity,” O’Guin said. She added: “However, we would likely focus our mandate in the near future, on indoor settings and for a specified timeframe.” As of October, the following cities, towns and county areas had opted out of Tri-County’s order requiring mask-wearing: Bennett, Brighton, Castle Pines, Castle Rock, Columbine Valley, Deer Trail, Glendale, Parker, Douglas County areas outside of municipalities (unincorporated areas), and unincorporated areas in
Arapahoe County east of Watkins Road all the way to the eastern county line, generally east of Aurora. Douglas County Virus restrictions are almost certain to look different in Douglas County compared to in the rest of Tri-County’s jurisdiction. In early March, Douglas County’s elected leaders approved a resolution asking the governor to fully reopen the county. Specifically, the unanimously approved commissioners’ resolution asked the state for a framework outlining how and when the county can fully reopen. The vote came following a rally that gathered a crowd of dozens in Castle Rock in support of removing restrictions. “The state informs us that they share our goal of opening communities, increasing capacity, and relaxing restrictions as more receive the vaccine and severity metrics such as hospitalizations and deaths are reduced,” an April 1 statement from Douglas County said. It added: “We are counting on the state to make good on their promises and look forward to knowing more in the coming weeks. In the meantime, we will work with Tri-County Health and continue to support our citizens’ ability to make wise choices for themselves and their families.” Denver One place with a clearer picture of future virus restrictions is
Denver, where officials are considering restrictions consistent with what’s currently in the dial, with a month-by-month phasing down of restrictions — provided that virus spread remains level, Denver officials said. “Denver would potentially shift to level blue restrictions in midApril, level green restrictions in mid-May and no restrictions come mid-June,” said Lee, with the Denver Department of Public Health and Environment. Among the dial’s six levels, blue is the second-least restrictive. Purple, the most restrictive level, is a stay-at-home order. See a map that shows each county’s dial level and what restrictions apply to each level at covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19-dial-dashboard. Asked about the possibility that Polis would let the state mask mandate expire, Denver officials signaled some sort of mask requirement would likely remain. “A face-covering requirement in many indoor settings is a measure that makes sense to keep in place while other restrictions may be reduced,” Lee said. Jefferson County Other Denver-area counties, such as Jefferson, had less to say about what restrictions will look like. Jefferson County Public Health “is currently awaiting further guidance from (the state publichealth department) on confirmed next steps related to loosening restrictions at the state level,”
a statement from spokeswoman Ashley Sever said. “At the same time, we have provided input that mask-wearing indoors and social distancing remain essential at this time to continue to stop the spread of COVID-19 and to avoid any future surges as we race to distribute (the) vaccine.” The health agency “will consider any local level disease prevention measures as necessary based on what the evidence says is needed in our community,” Sever said. Weld County The response was similar in Weld County, where officials said they “are still in deliberation.” “There continues to be a number of ‘unknowns,’ and until there are clear decisions from the (governor’s) office, we will continue to reflect on our options,” said Eric Aakko, division director for health education, communication and planning in the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment. Elbert County It was also unclear how limits would look in Elbert County, but one of the county’s leaders shed light on the general attitude of Elbert officials. “People have been doing what people will do, that’s been our message all along,” said Elbert County Commissioner Chris Richardson. He continued: “If you think you’re sick, get tested. SEE RESTRICTIONS, P10

Act funds went to numerous rounds of small business and nonprofit grants and rent assistance, Olson said. “I could see more going toward rent assistance, and possibly toward businesses who have had to keep paying the same rent regardless of how much they’ve been able to open up,” she said. Arapahoe County Commissioner Carrie Warren-Gully said she was proud of how Arapahoe County had distributed CARES Act funds, highlighting rent assistance programs and housing vouchers that housed people experiencing homelessness. Going forward, Warren-Gully said she hopes the county can use some of the funding to create or bolster mental health programming, especially as people recover from the myriad traumas inflicted by the pandemic and its impacts. “This is a moment in history to be innovative,” she said. Englewood city revenues dropped by 2.6% in 2020, but overall the city fared better than expected through the worst of the pandemic, Olson said. Overall, less than half of Colorado

municipalities saw revenues decline last year, according to state data. Roughly a quarter actually saw revenues increase. Hickenlooper said despite revenues that proved more resilient than initial predictions, he stood by the provisions in the American Rescue Plan that saw Colorado municipalities slated to receive more than $827 million in federal assistance. “In a big plan or big program like this, there are a million ways to improve it and do it better,” Hickenlooper said. “The critical focus here was to get resources out into the community and to the municipalities and state governments, and try to trust that your mayors, your county commissioners are going to be able to direct those resources to where they can do the most good.” Going forward, Hickenlooper said he plans to keep pushing for a minimum wage increase as a way to offset climbing housing prices and homelessness, and urged governments to work together to address inequity. “We know what the building blocks are of a healthy, secure economy,” he said. “You need the right housing so everyone has a place to live, we need a good education system, and we need a good public health system.”
said at a March 30 COVID-19 update with the county commissioners. Ryan said a statewide mask mandate is easier for residents and visitors to keep track of, rather than a piecemeal approach. “I spoke to my colleagues in other counties, and the level of absolute belligerence of people going to resorts is at an all-time high,” Ryan said. “(Those counties) want the ski season to end as quick as possible. They want the snow to melt, because (visitors are) driving up the numbers in those counties.” “How do we communicate to folks that this isn’t over yet, and we’re in a moment of danger here?” Commissioner George Marlin said.

Castle Rock pizza shops share a slice of profits, food Pizza competitors come together to support each other during a tough time BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Granelli’s Pizzeria and 212 Pizza Co. in Castle Rock suspended competition to team up in a time of need. The two companies agreed to share profits and food after 212 Pizza Co. was required to close due to a COVID-19 case. On March 26, Robins Crooks, co-owner of 212 Pizza, said a staff member contracted COVID which in turn required the business to shut down for 10 days. To avoid wasting food, Crooks said she offered to donate all of her produce to Granelli’s Pizza. Angie Trano Wurm, owner of Granelli’s, said she was on vacation when her general manager called to tell her 212 had to shut down. She said she told the general manager to write a check for the food supplies and was shocked when Crooks refused payment. Wurm contacted Crooks and proposed that she promote Granelli’s website on the 212 Pizza Co. website
during the closure and they share the profits for a day. Soon, word spread in Castle Rock about what Granelli’s was doing to help a neighboring business. With lines and call-in orders stacking up, Wurm said they had customers coming from Pueblo, Thornton and Boulder just to help the two businesses. On March 31, Wurm presented Crooks with a $4,000 check. Wurm said she had hoped it was more, as Crooks said the gesture meant so much more than the money. “It gives me chills,” Wurm said. “I had no idea it would turn into something so amazing. This country has been through so much this last year. There are so many struggling businesses, we have to help each other.” Crooks said having to shut down is tough on every business, estimating she lost about $30,000 over the 10-day period. She reopened on April 1. “Something like this to a business is huge,” she said. “It is just devastating.” Crooks said one of the biggest stressors through it all is that she has 36 part-time and full-time employees who went without a job for 10 days. Crooks said her goal is to find a nonprofit or governmentsupport program that can replenish some of the lost wages.

Show us the top candidates for tax-funded leadership roles
S
ome public-process issues deserve extra attention. House Bill 21-1051, now working its way through the Colorado Capitol, must be opposed. The bill aims to rewrite portions of the Colorado Open Meetings Act and Colorado Open Meetings Law to allow public bodies to disclose just one finalist when choosing a new chief executive such as a city manager, school district superintendent or university president. Unfortunately, a panel of the Colorado Court of Appeals recently reversed an earlier decision that open-government laws require the naming of multiple chief executive finalists. Instead it ruled that the University of Colorado regents did not violate CORA when it released only Mark Kennedy’s application for the CU presidency to the Boulder Daily Camera in 2019. With that appeals ruling, the Legislature received a nod to take action, and the bill now in motion clearly steps the wrong direction. We urge a strong no to House Bill 21-1051. Let’s fight to retain “open search” practices and oppose the “closed search” proposal. We have made a habit of following school superintendent searches and final choices of high-level public
OUR VIEW officials fastidiously. Best-case scenario is when a school district narrows its search to at least three candidates, then invites them to meet the school board, tour the district, and meet community members. The names are shared and the process to name finalists is detailed in advance, clear and open. Worstcase scenario is when no names are provided and then a sole finalist is announced. We believe the public, in direct participation in these processes and through available documents — and by media reporting — has the right to know and the right to interact in making these crucial decisions. We understand the desire to make a hiring process somewhat private. But here is the hitch with this logic in simple terms. The public sector should not operate like the private sector, although we often understand and see why it may want to: The private sector can hire its leaders behind closed doors and can follow whatever slight or intensive process it chooses. It can be a faster process and more private. The choice of a superintendent involves a public-body, tax-funded position. The competition for these
public positions should be open. Candidates should be held to an open, public process to help ensure that the best possible choice results. These types of important decisions, involving taxpayer and leadership roles, have deep impacts in communities and should be above reproach. Let’s say those two core words again — above reproach. To attain this benchmark, the process for selecting these high-level leaders must be open and the names of finalists must be public record. For our role in media, we aim to make sure a diverse pool of candidates is chosen, backgrounds are fully vetted, and no important questions go unasked. We recognize that public officials do ask stellar questions aplenty, but we can usually add additional valid questions. Additionally, we look into business alliances, affiliations, potential cronyism, cultural diversity and more, which are important considerations. We are not going to detail the other side of the coin, but we appreciate a comment from Frank LoMonte, director of the University of Florida’s Brechner Center for Freedom of Information, who cited research that counters one of the main pitches for closed searches.
“If the assertion that a closed search produces better outcomes were accurate, we would expect to find that more people leave prestigious higher-education jobs for presidencies in ‘closed search’ states as opposed to ‘open search’ states. However, we found no such evidence,” LoMonte wrote. “There was no discernible distinction in the credentials of the hires made in states with ‘closed’ searches versus those that conduct ‘open’ searches.” Colorado Community Media President and Colorado Press Association President Jerry Healey is urging media outlets to mobilize to oppose this bill. He noted that CCM’s west metro coverage area just experienced a problematic “closed search” for superintendent of Jeffco Public Schools, which was responded to with an editorial. Colorado Freedom of Information Coalition (CFOIC) has additional coverage on this House bill as well. Take action Please contact your local state House and Senate representatives and urge them to oppose House Bill 21-1051. Sending an email to your representative’s office is quick and effective. Please act now.

You have to pick up the particle, show it to the attachment, then stick it in. Adulthood really settled on my shoulders when I bought a home. To a vacuum cleaner I was required to add a lawn mower, a washing machine and dryer, a dishwasher, stove and refrigerator. The works. Although the dishwasher stopped working, exploded and flooded the wood floor which had to be sanded and varnished from the kitchen all the way to the first floor bathroom. It meant leaving for 72 hours.
I drove to Durango, had green chili on my eggs at the Durango Diner, and came back. One of these days I might be able to do away with the lawn mower. And the snow shovel, snowblower and garden hoses, and move into one of those seniors-only places that look so tempting in the brochures. Everyone is smiling and holding a glass or a putter. That’s for me. But the truth is, each and every one of them has to have a vacuum cleaner. You can simplify your life in a lot of ways, but you’re still going to need a vacuum cleaner. Unless you’re a hoarder. None of the interior shots in these brochures indicates that hoarders would be welcome. If there are 88 units there are at least 88 vacuum cleaners. My mother had five. Each one was a specialist. If you know anyone who vacuums almost every day whether it’s needed or not you’ll understand. If not, you might think I made it
up for the purposes of enlivening the narrative. No, Shirley had five vacuum cleaners. Visitors have told me my house is clean. I know better. I have seen Clean. My mother cleaned walls and ceiling, corners and crevices. Obsessive? Absolutely. Difficult to be around? I began to stay in hotels when I went back to Michigan. It was better for everyone. When I was a kid I’d see how others lived, in “lived-in” homes, and couldn’t believe my eyes. Naturally, I was envious. For one of my birthdays she gave me a book: “How to Clean Everything.” “Thanks, mom.” “You’re welcome, son. Clean on. Clean until your clean comes true.” P.S. I loved her.

Famous last words are not only for the famous
I
f someone were asked to recall the last thing that you had ever said to them, what would you hope those words would be? Famous last words are not just for the famous, WINNING and they are also not only limited to WORDS the dying. We all have something to say these days, don’t we? And our famous last words may not really be our final last words, they might just be our last words for now. Michael Norton We know what this sounds like when we are in a disagreement, one of us might say something like, “That’s it, end of conversation.” The last words. It’s not that the last word has to be contentious either, no, far from it. The last words could sound like, “I love you too.” And those are much nicer and warmer last words. If we were to think back on a few of our most recent conversations, we might be able to relate to this as
we can probably recall exactly what someone said before we parted company, ended a telephone conversation, or signed off on an email or text. Now, if we take another minute to imagine how others are reflecting on the last thing that they heard or read from us, would we be satisfied with what we said, or would we want a do-over? As we relive our final words in a disagreement, we may find ourselves justifying our attitude, tonality, and word choices, believing that we said exactly what we wanted to say exactly how we wanted to say it. But then a funny thing happens, time starts to soften our hardened hearts, and when we replay the whole conversation, we realize that even in the heat of battle, we may have been better served taking the high road. A last word that is filled with loving-kindness is almost never forgotten. As we replay those conversations, we are filled with such a great feeling that we can hardly wait to see or hear from that person again. As a matter of fact, the sooner the better.
When we think of getting in the last word, we do have a choice in what we will say. Will our words be filled with words that we might regret later? Or will we speak something so wonderful and encouraging that our spouse, our neighbor, or a friend will look forward to seeing us or hearing from us again? Many will remember where we start the conversation, a large percentage will not recall the middle, but almost everyone will remember what is said at the end. This year my mom passed away. To say that she lived an interesting life would be determined by our interpretation or definition of the word interesting. She was very easy to tease and to rile up, especially if the subject was politics. And although the teasing was in good fun, she would sometimes end the call with a very colorful couple of words before abruptly hanging up. Shortly after being admitted to the hospital, we knew that it was not looking good. Her heart was giving out. And although my mom was on-again and off-again when it
came to her faith, during our very last conversation, she asked me about certain Scripture. She said she had been dreaming of a chapter and verse number, and asked me to read her the associated scriptures. When we hung up the phone, I really had no idea that would be the last time we spoke, as she passed away that night. But as I look back on my last words to her being filled with God’s word, and her final words being, “I love you,” I take complete solace in how the call ended. When you think of the conversations you have had recently, are you comfortable with the last words you used? Can you recall any wonderful last words spoken to you? I would love to hear your last word stories at mnorton@tramazing.com and when we realize that famous last words aren’t only for the famous, it really will be a better than good year.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Make informed choices in IREA Most Coloradans can agree that when it comes to heating/cooling our homes and businesses, and driving our cars, we want our energy sources and policies to be affordable, available, dependable and clean. The key to achieving all four of these goals is having a choice of energy sources to use. Colorado is blessed with a remarkably abundant and varied supply of energy sources, including oil, natural gas, coal, geothermal, solar, water and wind. These natural energy resources not only meet the everyday needs of Coloradans, but are critical for the health of our economy, provide jobs, and promote energy independence. According to a report published by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), having a choice in energy resources has resulted in “Colorado’s per capita total energy consumption being lower than two-thirds of the United States.” Colorado’s lawmakers and public utilities’ boards should avoid politically- motivated and polarizing “green or nothing” energy policies, and work in a reasonable and unified manner to provide affordable, available, dependable, and clean energy for its citizens. Intermountain Rural Electric Association (IREA) customers in Douglas County have an opportunity to have a voice in energy sources and policies by voting for new board members in April. Visit Director Elections at irea.coop/ director-elections to find board candidate information and learn about which ones support affordable, available, dependable and clean energy and policies. Elizabeth West Castle Rock Support bill to protect land The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed the Colorado Outdoor Recreation and Economy (CORE) Act. As a mom, I was thrilled to see the news. Like so many Colorado moms, I am raising my kids here in part for the outdoor quality of life. As Colorado’s population continues its rapid growth, we must protect some of our last remaining wild areas before they are threatened with development. In the U.S. we lose a natural area the size of a football field every 30 seconds. At that rate, our children will not be able to enjoy the beauty and solitude of nature as we did, or even as we do now. They won’t be able to spot wildlife with their kids someday as habitat disappears. The CORE Act would protect around 400,000 acres of our beautiful state. All the proposed areas are worthy of protection, but I am excited about one area in particular. It would finally make the Curecanti National Recreation Area an official unit of the National Park System (NPS). While it was established in 1965, Curecanti was never formally added to the NPS. Adding it now will strengthen the protection of the natural resources ensuring they survive for future generations. My parents are retired park rangers who worked at Curecanti and taught me to love it. As they shared the area with me, I want it there for future generations. I hope the Senate will take up action to pass the CORE Act quickly. Lisa Konrad Littleton

Opera guild names winners in contest $35,500 in cash awards distributed among singers BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Operatic entertainment was enjoyed in this 2020 “Opera on Tuesday” luncheon for Denver Lyric Opera Guild members at the Cherry Creek Country Club. COURTESY PHOTO
In years past, there was a Denver Lyric Opera Company and a group of supporters formed the Denver Lyric Opera Guild in 1965 to support singers ages 23-32 as they began their operatic careers. When that company folded, the guild members determined that they would continue their aid to young singers. In 1984, the Guild began its signature program: Competition for Colorado Singers, with generous grants to winners so they can further their careers through education and performance. This spring, 30 competitors were selected to sing arias for professional judges, and cash awards totaling $35,500 were given.
Usually the supportive DLOG members meet at various country clubs in the metro area, fall through spring, for “Opera on Tuesday,” luncheons plus performances by young singers with Central City Opera, Opera Colorado and graduate students in area universities. (New members are welcome. See DLOG website at denverlyricoperaguild.org.) Announcement of competition winners is made and celebrated in April. With COVID restrictions, the luncheon meetings were not possible, but generous opera supporters donated funds and held the competition anyhow. The organization announced winners recently. Videos of the Finals performances are available on the DLOG YouTube channel, which can be reached through the website listed above. Music lovers can enjoy an afternoon or evening of opera, despite COVID. SEE OPERA, P15

Castle View cheer wins 5A State Championship The champions overcame a tough year to bring home the title BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Castle View High School celebrated the co-ed cheer team’s 5A State Championship in a special celebration on April 2. The champions were applauded as they brought the title back to the school. Known as being one of the top cheer programs in the state, this is the first time the team won the state title since 2018. Competing in the 2020-21 state spirit championships on March 26, the Castle View team defeated Vista Ridge High School with a score of 86.25. Team captains and coaches said it was not an easy year to earn the top spot in the state. The year brought unique challenges as the team had to work around COVID-19 restrictions. Practice times were different, social distancing rules required extra attention. Captain Chloe Bullock said everything was quite

Police, fire chiefs raise staffing concerns Castle Rock Town Council to discuss new revenue streams in coming months BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The Castle Rock Town Council will be taking recommendations from staff to find new revenue streams to increase staffing levels for the police and fire departments. In a March 30 study session, Fire Chief Norris Croom and Police Chief Jack Cauley expressed concerns over staffing levels falling behind today and as the town continues to grow. Both public safety chiefs said if something does not change, they do not feel they can keep providing the high standard of service that has come
to be expected. Croom said growth concerns are not just limited to Castle Rock town limits. The longtime chief explained that the fire department covers 34 square miles in town limits. However, they are also required to cover an additional 32 square miles outside of town limits as part of the Castle Rock Fire Protection District. With both areas, the fire department is responsible for a population of nearly 80,000. Fire and Rescue has 97 personnel across all five of its divisions. Croom said the department will be requesting a total of 15 positions over the next five years. Croom said this year, the department needs to add at least six more staff members to keep up with demand. “We will see a decrease in service if we don’t start addressing some of these issues,” Croom
said. “Biggest challenge going forward is funding. Currently, we need additional people today. We have to find an alternate revenue stream to help justify and fund these positions.” The current fire department budget is $17.6 million. Town Manager David Corliss said there was not enough funds to hire any new firefighters or officers in 2021. Corliss said it is a concern, and new revenue streams must be found to allow the public safety agencies to keep up with current demands and future growth. “Last year’s budget did not efficiently meet the needs of these departments,” he said. Chief Cauley said the police department is in a similar situation, needing more staff today. With current staffing at around 82 police officers, Cauley said as growth continues, they are pro-
tecting more people, taking more calls, and responding to more car accidents on the roadways. Looking at results of the annual community survey, Cauley said the police department consistently earns high marks for approachability, confidence, and trust. “We work efficiently, but at some point, you do not want to lose that level of service,” he said. In reviewing the data, Cauley said the department is currently on track to fall behind the one officer per 1,000 residents standard by 2022. The police department’s 2021 budget is $16.5 million. In presenting a five-year plan, Cauley said the department will need more officers and administrative staff continually through 2026. Both Croom and Cauley said another issue as growth continues SEE STAFF, P20

CARE FROM PAGE 1
“When all of this started, the messaging was to delay medical care if it could be delayed,” said Dr. Alison Shmerling, who practices family medicine for UCHealth in Westminster. Shmerling said she is seeing cases where screening orders for preventive testing, including mammograms and colonoscopies, that she recommended a year ago have expired. For older patients, the less active lifestyle caused by stay-at-home orders has created complications in managing weight, blood pressure and keeping diabetes in check. 2020 left backlog of issues With family medicine considered the first line of defense in many cases, Dr. Mihir Patel, a primary-care doctor in Castle Rock, said 2020 has caused a backlog of issues, including cancer diagnosis, depression, obesity and issues related to heart health such as cholesterol, blood pressure and exercise. “In general, not everyone is compliant with screenings, but that was elevated in COVID,” he said. “Anything we can catch in the early stages and start treating means we can do the work to stop it.” Dr. Amanda Babcock, family medicine provider at UCHealth Primary Care-Arvada West, said
Woman’s persistence pays after struggle to find biopsy provider BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
While the rest of the world was being told to stay home and delay medical care in the spring of 2020, Littleton-area resident Suzi McCumber was searching for a place to perform a recommended biopsy. In February las year, McCumber said she got the mammogram her doctor recommended. Soon after, McCumber said her doctor called and said the 3D scan picked up something suspicious that would require a biopsy and closer look. The problem, McCumber explained, was that by the time she got the mammogram results, it was March, and the world was shutting down. McCumber said the hospital stopped doing procedures and pushed her case to a local surgical facility. Before she could get the biopsy, that facility closed. she has seen a trend of patients requesting prescription refills

In the appointment to get the mammogram results, her doctor told her she would need a biopsy, McCumber said he marked the spot with a Sharpie marker. In the following weeks as she called multiple places trying to find a place to do the biopsy, the 66-year-old said she kept remarking the spot. “I had a magic marker and I just didn’t want to lose the spot that my doctor thought would be taken care of in days,” she said. “COVID caused so many delays. It seemed like it took forever.” By late March, McCumber’s persistence paid off. She found a place that performed the biopsy, and the results came back positive for breast cancer. By the time she got her biopsy, the mass had doubled and was diagnosed as extremely aggressive. McCumber’s physician, Dr. Radhika Acharya-Leon, section chief for medical oncology at UCHealth Highlands Ranch Hospital, said had McCumber not been persistent in finding a place to do the biopsy and move treatment forward, she would likely have not made it through the year. without coming in for annual exams. “We provide that general care where we are able to get the whole picture,” Babcock said. “You might think something that is happening is normal and is no big deal. However, when you see (your general-care doctor), we might see something and order tests to make sure it is nothing.” Dr. Lisa Wynn, an OB/GYN at UCHealth Highlands Ranch Hospital, said she is seeing signs of distress from 2020 through blood work. Patients had depression and heightened stress, and test results are showing that. Liver function in blood work is worrisome, Wynn said, as it is clear more women turned to alcohol to cope with the stressors of the pandemic. “In 2019 all these tests were normal,” she said. “Now, in 2021,

Based on imaging, Acharya-Leon said the mass was originally estimated at about three millimeters in size. By the time of the biopsy and removal, the mass had grown past about seven millimeters. McCumber tested positive for the HER2+ marker, which means too much protein makes the tumor grow rapidly. “This exemplifies that if you have a delayed diagnosis, you have to jump through more hoops for treatment,” AcharyaLeon said. While McCumber was not to blame for the delayed treatment and testing, once the tumor exceeded five millimeters, Acharya-Leon said chemo is required. Acharya-Leon said McCumber is responding well to treatment that will continue through June. In advising others, McCumber said even in a pandemic, it is important to follow up with recommended treatment and screenings. “You have got to get in there and do it,” she said. “I am not sure I would be here today if I had not gotten the 3D mammogram or just kept going. It’s important to be positive and trust the medicine.” there are a lot of red flags with alcohol, cholesterol, and markers for pre-diabetes. An annual exam can really serve as a reset button. It is a reality check for getting diet and healthy habits back on track.” Wynn joked that her entire family, including her dog, gained weight during the pandemic, noting that no one should feel ashamed or avoid a doctor just because everything is not perfect. “We all handled our health-care decisions differently,” she said. “When you think zombies are going to be at your door tomorrow, you take the attitude of eating or doing whatever you want today. But the zombies are no longer at your door. It is time to get back on track.” SEE CARE, P20

YOUR MONEY BY JOHN FRISCH ALLIANT WEALTH ADVISORS
The most meaningful ways your retirement age affects your retirement lifestyle “When can I retire?” For many Americans, it’s a matter of when they can afford to. Clearly, retiring sooner than later affects your finances. But some of the reasons why are more obvious than others. For example, you may already know, the later you claim Social Security retirement benefits, the higher the monthly payments will be. Do you also have a pension? Most pensions pay out based on your “high 3,” or highest 3 earning years. So, you may score more by delaying retirement a year or two. There are other, less-familiar financial considerations that can make an even bigger difference to your retirement lifestyle, including healthcare costs, and saving/withdrawal strategies. Healthcare Costs: Are you really prepared to foot 100% of your medical insurance premiums if you retire before age 65 (when you’ll qualify for Medicare)? You may realize you’ll experience a lapse once your employer’s insurance coverage ends and before Medicare begins. But you may not realize that medical premiums can easily cost $2,000/ month per couple, or $24,000/year. If you retire at age 55, that’s almost a quarter million dollars in premiums alone before you qualify for Medicare. Saving and Withdrawal Strategies: Once you retire, how much can you reasonably withdraw from your retirement portfolio? How soon you retire injects two tricky variables to the decision. First, an early retirement reduces the number of years available for saving and investing for retirement. Second it increases the number of years you should expect to withdraw and spend in retirement. Let’s say you plan to retire at age 67, and your life expectancy is 92. That’s 25 years in retirement. If you wait until age 69 to retire, you have 2 extra years to add to your retirement portfolio, and 2 fewer years to take from it. In this scenario, you should be able to withdraw 28% more per year from your savings in retirement. Would a 28% increase in your retirement “paycheck” meaningfully enhance your retirement lifestyle? Postponing retirement isn’t ideal for everyone. But do consider all the numbers before deciding whether an early retirement is ideal for you.

MY NAME IS
JESSI HOSLER
Paralegal who finds the light in damaged people Hard to move on I work as a paralegal at a small law firm. We do everything from traffic stuff to murder cases. We don’t see our clients as defendants or criminals. They may have done something horrible, but they still deserve to be treated like human beings. We fight for them — that doesn’t always mean getting someone off the hook or out of jail, but letting them be heard. The criminal justice system is not always fair. Once you’re in the system, you can be stuck in it. Getting out and doing something with your life can be very difficult. Not because you’re a criminal, but because the system makes it hard to move on. Damaged lights still shine We have a client in federal prison I hear from him regularly. He received a life sentence for a homicide. He nearly got the death penalty. We represented him for seven years. Going through something like that, you learn everything about a person — stuff nobody else knows. You start to understand why they became who they are. He suffered terrible abuse as a child, and the system failed to protect him. Then he grew up and became like those who harmed him. It’s hard to say when someone has taken a life, but there’s light in them. It’s just so damaged it can only shine once in a while. The demons take over. Should he be out on the streets? No. but should we take his life? No, I don’t believe in that either. Making it all worthwhile If we want to address crime, re-

Troubling trend in mental health Babcock and Patel said one of the most worrisome issues stemming from the pandemic concerns mental health. “We definitely saw in uptick in mental-health cases,” Patel said. “Like other issues, mental health is something we can treat better if caught in its early stages.” Babcock said she saw an increased number of patients complaining of anxiety, depression and insomnia.

is addressing the need for more public-safety facilities. Cauley said the current police station was built in 1999 and has been updated over the years, but a new station will need to be considered as the town’s population increases.
Jessi Hosler said rehabilitation and humanity are key to helping people emerge from COURTESY PHOTO the clutches of crime.
habilitation is key. Rather than spit someone out once they’ve done their time, they need help to reintegrate. After 10 years in jail, do they know how to write a resume? Or how to keep a bank account? Where they can live or work is limited, but they might still know how to sell drugs. They feel like they have no other options. We absolutely have success stories. We had a client who had been lost in drugs most of her life. We helped her get to where she could do therapy and classes, and she changed her life. It’s outstanding.
We were able to show the judge how hard she’s worked, and she received an appropriate sentence. Now she calls us every few weeks and shares the amazing accomplishments she’s having. When we get pictures from clients of them in their new jobs or with their new babies, that’s what keeps me going. That’s what makes it all worthwhile.
“Patients need to understand that we are here in person or through virtual access to help relieve some of that anxiety,” she said. Another unexpected trend during the pandemic, Wynn said, is an increase in diagnosing STDs in young patients. With dating being unpredictable and more of her patients getting into new relationships, Wynn said cases of sexually transmitted disease went up last year. However, Wynn said, in some cases patients waited too long to seek diagnosis and treatment. “STDs are not an area that you want to continue to ignore,” Wynn
said. “If an STD is left untreated in your 20s, you can experience infertility issues later in life.” Besides preventive screenings having a backlog, vaccines and immunizations are also behind. Family doctors said they are behind with immunizations for children, giving teenagers the HPV vaccine and in giving recommended vaccinations to older patients. “Patients have to understand that COVID is not the only thing out there,” Wynn said. “Patients may be thinking they are healthy, but there is nothing wrong with seeing your doctor to make sure. You might feel OK, but you need to know for sure.”
Croom said the fire department will likely need to find funding and start discussions for a new station in the next decade. After Cauley and Croom presented the status of the departments, Corliss said everything is on the table, including sales taxes, property taxes, increasing impact fees for developers and more. “Everything and the kitchen will
be in there,” Corliss said. “I just want you to know we are looking at this broadly.” Corliss said more in-depth discussion are expected in April and May council meetings. If the council decides to move forward with a special tax that requires citizens approval through an election, Corliss said time is of the essence as it must be ready to go by at least Sept. 1.

Ell brings intensity to the volleyball court BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Mountain Vista girls volleyball coach Doug Schafer calls senior Kelli Ell a fireball. And she showed why she got that label in a match on March 30 against top-ranked Chaparral. The 5 foot 8 inch senior had a match high 10 spikes, three aces and six digs as second-ranked Vista notched a 2-0 victory with 25-15 and 25-17 set wins. “Kelli had come into her own this year,” said Schafer. “She is just a fireball. She has taken sort of a different role. She is definitely more of a leader both in her play and her attitude. She is somebody the team relies on.” After the first eight matches this season, Ell was the Continental League leader in kills (86 and 4.5 per set) and aces (19). She was fifth in digs (43 or 2.3 per set). “Realizing this is my last year playing at this high school and that made me think I need to leave it all on the court,” said Ell. “I’ve been working pretty hard so I can play all the way around.” Schafer has seen Ell’s play elevate. “She is just bringing a lot of different shots, a lot of different hits and gets the job done,” said Schafer. “It’s good to see her doing so well. “She’s made a big leap from the past year. She’s earned it because she’s worked hard for it. She’s put in a lot of time and effort.” Ell, who has signed to play next season at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Tx., isn’t a tall player at the net but she’s smart. “I’ve been told every year that I’m short and I have to figure out how to play smart at the net,” she explained. “So, I’ve got more shots and high hits over the block and work on not hitting as hard and just playing smarter with the ball. I have the high shots down and the low shots so I have to work on my hitting techniques so even if I’m short I can still play. “I think my backrow, just passing Mountain Vista senior Kelli Ell is only 5-foot-8 but stands tall as one of the spike leaders in the Continental League this season. and stuff, has improved. I’ve always FILE PHOTO been pretty strong at the net and serving.” Ell started playing volleyball and other sports when she was in kindergarten and her big sister Annie played and gradate from Mountain Vista in 2017. Annie Ell now plays at the University of Rhode Island. Doug Schafer, “I’m going to miss it all (high Mountain Vista girls volleyball coach, school) and I want to get our team to state,” Ell concluded. “We’ve got on senior Kelli Ell a pretty good team this year.”
‘She’s made a big leap from the past year. She’s earned it because she’s worked hard for it. She’s put in a lot of time and effort.’

The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) solicits technical information or comments on proposed flood hazard determinations for the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your community. These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. The FIRM and, if applicable, the FIS report have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to adopt or show evidence of having in effect to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. For more information on the proposed flood hazard determinations and information on the statutory 90-day period provided for appeals, please visit FEMA’s website at www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/fhm/bfe, or call the FEMA Map Information eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627).
