MY NAME IS

PARKE COVARRUBIAS

Artist moved often in military family, found home in Castle Rock About me I grew up in an Air Force family. My dad was one of the “Great Generation” and flew during WWII. He stayed in the Air Force and we lived in many states as well as Alaska and Taiwan. My mother was a commercial artist and continued painting her whole life, so I was exposed to art early. We lived in Colorado Springs during my middle and high school years so I fell in love with the mountains and skiing. I attended CU Boulder with English and art majors.

After working on Capitol Hill for two years, I married into the Air Force and kept on moving. My late husband was transferred to Venezuela so I learned Spanish living there for three years. I decided to teach and picked English, later getting a master’s in ESL. I taught in Denver, Littleton, and then was the ESL coordinator for Douglas County schools from 2000-2010.

Settling in Castle Rock As a child I sometimes regretted moving so often, but as an adult I enjoyed the different locations and cultures. I learned to make friends quickly and valued the sense of community found within the military. I did dream of having a hometown where I felt I knew people and they knew me. I feel I have found that in Castle Rock and love the fact that the people in stores, banks, groceries, recreation center and churches know my name. For me that is a thrill, especially with such a difficult name.

Returning to painting I always kept painting, but while working full-time I had very little time to practice. When I retired I joined the Castle Rock Art Guild and took classes and workshops. It has taken years to feel good about my painting. I am a member of the Heritage Art Guild in Littleton. St. Andrews Methodist Church in Highlands Ranch asked if any painters wanted to show their work at the church, so I was happy to be able to show 18 paintings in the church until Sept. 17 Have a suggestion for My Name Is?

School board to consider suspending pay-for-performance for a year 2017-18 school year will focus on new teacher evaluation rubric

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Douglas County School District may suspend the differentiated pay structure for licensed teachers and administrators, replacing it for one year with uniform pay raises while it reassesses the evaluation and salary systems that many community members say spurred an exodus of quality educators.

Interim Superintendent Erin Kane pointed out at the board of education’s Sept. 5 meeting that no one is talking about moving away from pay-for-performance, but rather honoring what employees want and restructuring the pay-for-performance system.

“We want to talk to our employees about what it is that motivates them and makes them want to bring their A-game every day,” she said. “Because at the end of the day bringing their A-game is what makes our kids winners. That is what is behind this.

Not any kind of movement away from differential pay.”

The recommendation to put the differentiated pay system on hold for the 2017-18 school year came from Steve Colella, the district’s chief of human resources, who said doing so gives teachers and administrators the chance to review and share their opinions about a revised teacher evaluation rubric developed over the past year. A group of teachers and administators worked with the district on the revisions.

“Let’s ... allow participants to weigh in and have robust discussions without worrying about the impact on the raises,” Colella said.

Now is a good time to suspend payfor-performance, Cane said, because “there isn’t a lot of money” for raises. The uniform pay raise would take effect in the 2018-19 school year.

The amount is unknown at this time and would depend on next year’s budget.

The seven-member board will vote on the recommendation at its Sept.

19 meeting, beginning at 6 p.m., in the boardroom of Wilcox Administration Building, 620 Wilcox St. in Castle Rock.

Douglas County parent Darien Wilson, who attended the Sept. 5 meeting, talked before the recommendation was presented about how teacher turnover following implementation of the pay-for-performance structure has affected her three children.

“I hope you never have to dry the tears of a 5-year-old when she learns that her beloved teacher is leaving,” Wilson said through tears herself to board members. “You should be doing everything possible to retain teachers, so that they can maintain the relationships they have with the children of Douglas County.”

A REVISED RUBRIC Douglas County School District introduced a revised CITE rubric in the 2017-18 school year, in which the order and language of standards is different. Used to evaluate the teacher, “climate and culture” and “professionalism” went from being the last two standards listed on the rubric to the first two. The latter three standards — “planning,” “assessment” and “instruction” — evaluate the teaching.

Turnover rates better, but district says work remains

The language of the revised rubric is broader to consider the different instructional styles of teachers and schools, according to Erica Mason, the district’s director of educator effectiveness.

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT PAY-FOR-PERFORMANCE Deanne Kirby, principal of Trail Blazer Elementary School in Highlands Ranch “The way we rolled it out brought a different style of competition. It wasn’t a healthy way to compete against other teachers. It really took the focus off of what was important. I think there is a way to do it right, but it wasn’t that one.”

Kimberly Seefried, principal of Frontier Valley Elementary in Parker “Anytime you have pay-for-performance, it’s one of those things that makes the evaluation system feel more high-stakes. I think in terms of suspending it for the year, as teachers and administrators delve in the new rubric, it gives them the opportunity to work through those pieces without feeling that stress and pressure of having it tied to pay.”

Mike Carlson, co-principal Eldorado Elementary School, Highlands Ranch “As a former teacher, I am a fan of pay-for-performance. I found that it was recognizing hard work and dedication and professionalism. With that being said, it can be a little tricky from one year to the next. It does need to incorporate more than one test score. A more comprehensive breakdown would lead to a more ideal pay-for-performance system.”

Gary Colley, retired DCSD teacher “We pull back pay-for-performance, that’s a start, but what do you do in the meantime?”

Systems ‘created challenges’ Teacher and principal evaluations are required in all Colorado school districts under 2010’s Senate Bill 191, also called the Educator Effectiveness Bill. Districts were allowed to adopt either the state’s teacher-evaluation program or create their own. DCSD is among six districts that designed its own for teachers and administrators, along with a differentiated pay structure based on those evaluation rubrics.

They were both implemented in the 2012-13 school year.

CITE, Continuous Improvement Effectiveness, has six components for measuring teacher effectiveness: Outcomes, Assessment, Instruction, Culture and Climate, Professionalism and Student Data. Each of those categories contains a number of standards against which teachers are evaluated.

LEAD is a rubric used to evaluate administration, including principals, deans and directors.

Based on the results of evaluations based on those rubrics, teachers and administrators are rated as highly effective, effective, partially effective or ineffective. They then receive differentiated raises based on the ratings.

‘You should be doing everything possible to retain teachers, so that they can maintain the relationships they have with the children of Douglas County.’

Darien Wilson, Douglas County parent “The district implemented a new CITE rubric and a LEAD rubric for our administration and a pay-forperformance, or a differentiated pay structure, based on those brand-new evaluations,” Colella said. “We know that the simultaneous implementation created challenges.”

Over the past years, many teachers have expressed dissatisfaction with salaries, competition among teachers because salaries are tied to subjects

they teach, and hours of time spent on evaluations.

If the school board approves the recommendation, the district would suspend the differentiated pay structure for employees evaluated with CITE and LEAD and instead provide flat pay raises for the 2018-19 school year for those rated partially effective and above.

Council prepares for at-large mayor special election Moving to new system could mean another round of balloting would follow

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The petitions have been signed and submitted.

The ballot question is set.

Now, town council is deliberating over the final steps needed to prepare for a special election in which Castle Rock voters will decide who elects the town mayor — and what work is on the horizon if the measure passes.

After a successful citizen petition, the November ballot will ask Castle Rock residents if the town should cut its districts from seven to six and switch to an at-large mayor system.

Currently, town council elects the mayor from among its seven councilmembers in a vote where public comment is not allowed. Passing the ballot measure would amend the town charter, first adopted in 1987.

Implementing an at-large mayor Down the road, Councilmember James Townsend, who is a family-law attorney, believes passing the measure would require further amendments to clean up the charter’s language, mostly surrounding the roles and duties of a mayor versus a councilmember.

Under the charter as it’s written today, the mayor is also a councilmember. The amendment would make the mayor a separate position on the council.

Council also raised other questions

that might need to be addressed if the initiative is successful, such as what an at-large mayor’s voting power would be and if a councilmember could term out, then immediately run for mayor.

Passing the ballot measure would ultimately require redistricting and forming a transitional plan with a timeline for implementing all the changes, Town Attorney Bob Slentz said over the course of multiple town council meetings. Slentz pointed out the proposed amendment and the ballot language do not stipulate when the first at-large mayor should be elected or when redistricting should occur.

All are issues council would need to address if the town moves to an atlarge mayoral system, Slentz said.

“I am not bringing those up because I am attempting to trash this or point flaws or discourage the voters from favorably considering the amendment,” Slentz told council Aug. 1. “I don’t want to come across as being harsh or judgmental about the petitioners. This is a tough thing to do. It’s complicated any time you do a charter amendment.”

To muddy the waters more, if voters pass the amendment in November the mandate immediately takes effect — and because the town council is currently a seven-district council in which Mayor Jennifer Green was elected by her peers, the town would then be out of compliance with its own charter, Slentz said, leaving it in a vulnerable legal position.

Slentz recommended council act quickly to make any of the needed changes if voters approve the ballot issue.

Pooch Plunge makes a splash B

The Pooch Plunge, hosted by the Castle Rock Parks and Recereation department, opened up the doors of the pool at Butterfield Crossing Park for residents to bring their dogs for a day of fun.

utterfield Crossing Pool was overrun with dogs this weekend as Castle Rock’s Parks and Recreation Department hosted its annual Pooch Plunge event, which opens the pool’s doors for residents to bring in their dogs for a day of swimming. Pups young and old, big and small, spent the morning of Sept. 9 diving in and out of the pool as their owners threw them toys and swam alongside them. The event, although free for the public, gathered donations to benefit the Denver Dumb Friends League Buddy Center. The Buddy Center, located in Castle Rock, is a full-service shelter offering adoptions, pet admissions, lost-and-found services and humane education. For more information, visit ddfl. org.

All other employee groups — including classified staff, which includes secretaries, instructional assistants and food service workers — will continue with the current differentiated pay system.

Board member Wendy Vogel asked why only half of employees would be included in the suspension of differentiated pay, saying it seems to pit classified and licensed employees against each other.

But Kane said the goal is to revise CITE and LEAD evaluations, which have caused teachers to feel constrained in their teaching.

“We are not telling them how to teach,” Kane said of the revised CITE rubric, “but we need to make sure they are doing it right.”

Developing a new rubric The human resources department met with a group of teachers and ad-

ministrators during the 2016-17 year to revise the CITE rubric. Taking into consideration the many different teachers and instructional styles within the district, the language of the new rubric is “quite a bit more broad,” said Erica Mason, director of educator effectiveness for the district.

Outcome, one of six components of CITE, is now called planning, which better describes what teachers are being evaluated on: their planning in instruction, said Mason. There is also a “renewed focus” on culture and climate, she said.

“We heard from teachers and staff that that is what keeps them coming to work,” Mason said. “They want to be valued and we want to make sure that the tools we are using as part of their evaluations are valued too.”

Colella said they took into consideration several factors in developing a new CITE rubric for this school year and interrupting the pay-forperformance structure, including the district’s value of incentivizing “great work” through differentiated pay

increases.

“From a competitive perspective, I can tell you anecdotally I have had teachers come to me and say `I really like what Douglas County does,’ ” Colella said. “Maybe you don’t get paid as much some districts, but the concept of being paid more for doing better appeals to a lot of people.”

On the other hand, Colella pointed out that factors other than performance should be considered. Input from employees, the community and the school board is essential. The previous implementation of evaluation rubrics and differentiated pay structure led to confusion for many people, he said.

Although the LEAD rubric remains the same for now, based on feedback from LEAD participants revisions are “probably warranted,” Colella said.

Before explaining the pay-for-performance recommendation, Colella gave the board updated figures on the district’s teacher turnover rate, which improved over the previous year, but remains higher than neighboring districts. Colorado Department of

Education data shows DCSD’s teacher turnover rate was 19 percent in 2016, compared to Littleton Public Schools at 8.7 percent and Cherry Creek School District at 10.4 percent. The state average was 17 percent.

But board member Jim Geddes called the reported increases in teacher turnover rates over the past years a “myth.”

“The question is, if you want to just coast and not be evaluated and be paid on some salary scale, based on seniority, that is not the kind of person I want in my organization,” Geddes said.

“Whether we are taking care of sick people or teaching our children.”

Board member Anne-Marie Lemieux said she would like to hear from principals and teachers to see if they are on board with the recommendation.

That could be completed in a survey format or a question sent out over Facebook, she said.

“I think it would be easy to send that question out so that when you come back to the board for a vote on it, we can say, `yes, we support the needs of the employee,’ “ Lemieux said.

Old latex paint?

Don’t flip out! Dry it out!

Have you been stockpiling cans of latex paint, waiting for the next Douglas County Household Chemical Roundup? Good news – latex paint is water-based and safe to throw away, if prepared properly. If the paint is completely dry, simply remove the lid and throw the can away.

If there is still wet paint in the can, mix in some dirt or cat litter to fully absorb it. Once it is dry, throw it away. Save yourself a trip to the Roundup (and the $25 contribution) if you have water-based paint.

Remember, this only applies to water-based latex paint, and NO paint can be dumped in the gutter or thrown in the trash wet.

Residents debate pros, cons of Larkspur truck stop Proposed travel center, restaurant development gets mixed reactions from neighbors

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The town has not yet considered a site development plan, nor has it officially considered selling property to a local developer, but earnest Larkspur area residents still turned out to a packed town council meeting on Sept. 7 to weigh in a on a commercial development proposed north of town.

Developer Tim Dumler, a Perry Park resident, plans to open a 12,000-square-foot travel center and three restaurants at the intersection of Upper Lake Gulch Road and Spruce Mountain Road north of Larkspur.

The exact restaurants haven’t been announced, but Dumler says the travel center will offer 32 fueling stations, including four to six for semis and the remaining for cars, an RV island, electric car charging stations, a food court and a retailer of Colorado-sourced products.

Dumler owns nearly 6 acres on the proposed 9-acre development site and will ask the town to sell him an additional 3.5 acres of town-owned property to complete his project. On Sept. 7, council considered and approved rezoning the land to make way for any discussions surrounding a sale of town property for the project.

All seats were filled in council’s chamber, residents listened through the town hall’s front door and more strained their ears while peering through open windows as

WHAT’S NEXT FOR THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT? Effective Sept. 7, the Larkspur Town Council rezoned a 3.5-acre parcel of land from open space to planned development.

The land in question is located near the intersection of Upper Lake Gulch Road and Spruce Mountain Road.

Council will consider selling the property to developer Tim Dumler to expand the project site where he has proposed building a 12,000-square-foot travel

center and three restaurants.

In an email response to the News-Press, Town Manager Matt Krimmer said that with the land officially rezoned, council can begin negotiating its sale to Dumler, including a conveyance agreement.

“Which will stipulate conditions for the development to be completed,” Krimmer wrote, adding the town hopes to consider a land

public comment unfolded.

On one side are locals who oppose the development, or some who simply oppose selling Dumler the town’s land to expand the project site. Their concerns are many but largely center around traffic and the loss of open space.

Dumler’s land overlaps the Riparian Conservation Zone and Preble’s meadow jumping mouse habitat.

Douglas County officials, although they do not have jurisdiction over the project, were invited to comment on the proposal. They have stressed the importance of open space on the project site and in surrounding areas, and say the development activity could adversely affect nearby wildlife.

It’s up to the developer to mitigate those impacts, county officials said, which Dumler says he’s been doing while working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to form an official mitigation plan.

Fish and Wildlife Service officials declined to comment on the project while in active consultation with the developer.

A land-use site plan for the development is under the referral stages, and the timeline for council to consider a site-development plan is to be determined.

Both are dependent on approvals from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services. A spokesperson for the agency declined to comment while in active consultation with the developer.

Park East, said she moved to the Larkspur area for its quiet lifestyle and those open spaces. A truck stop, she said, won’t fit in with its surroundings. She also fears the county roads — Upper Lake Gulch Road and Spruce Mountain Roach — won’t support the traffic a travel center might bring.

“The exits from the highway are not built for 18-wheelers,” she said.

On the other side of the issue are residents who see the merit, and payoff, in letting the development move forward.

Inmate’s death in Douglas County jail a suspected suicide Cause and manner of death still under investigation STAFF REPORT

Officials are investigating the death of Daniel Bellinger, an inmate at the Douglas County jail who was found unresponsive and hanging from his bed with a sheet around his neck, the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office reported in a news release.

At 11:30 a.m. Sept. 6, deputies were told to check on the wellbeing of Bellinger, 40, the release says. When they found Bellinger, they immediately

called for medical staff and began CPR. Bellinger was transported to the hospital, where he survived his injuries through the night, according to the sheriff ’s office. He was pronounced dead at 2 p.m. Sept. 7. The final cause and manner of death is under investigation by the sheriff ’s office, the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office and the Douglas County Coroner’s Office.

Bellinger was in custody on several charges, including vehicle trespass, possession of fraudulent financial devices, theft, false reporting, obstructing police, possession of a weapon by a previous offender and three out-ofcounty warrants, the release says. His total bond was $13,000.

commissioned by Dumler, the town would receive $376,084 in sales tax revenue during the development’s first year of operation and $440,920 annually from year three onward.

Dumler has declined to release the full report, raising eyebrows among the project’s opponents.

Regardless, supporters say revenue generated by the potential development is much needed by the town. For some, it’s a comfort that the developer is local, and not a corporate chain looking to move in.

One such supporter was Eric Smidt, who moved to the Larkspur area 20 years ago with his family in search of a small community where he could raise his children.

Smidt believes projects like the travel center would bring sustainable businesses to the area and help support Larkspur in providing more town amenities.

“I look at it as a revenue generator,” he said Sept. 7.

Smidt and other supporters were also proponents for the added convenience of a nearby travel center and the additional jobs it would create, particularly for the youth in the area.

“One thing that I was looking for when I moved out here,” Smidt said, “I was looking for these amenities to kind of happen over the years.”

Trash talk surrounds proposed Compark facility Industrial property near residential neighborhoods center of controversy

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Since 1998, an 11.5-acre patch of land in northern Douglas County east of I-25 has been zoned for industrial use, a designation covering everything from animal hospitals to trash-transfer facilities. In the years since, businesses and residential neighborhoods have sprung up around the property.

In July, 19 years after the Douglas County Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners approved zoning for the property, Vista South, LLC, filed a site-improvement plan with the county to build a two-story trash-transfer and recycling facility on the property.

Now neighbors are up in arms and local officials are pointing fingers about who’s to blame for the predicament and whether the plan will go forward.

No one disputes that the zoning approves such a use for the property, but Mitch Maulik, who lives in the Dove Meadows subdivision across Chambers Road from the property, still doesn’t want trucks hauling tons of garbage near his house.

“I agree we do have to have trash,

Concerned Parker residents watch a Power Point presentation against a planned trash transfer facility by Terri Baker-Mulik and her husband Mitch. About 170 residents of the Dove Meadows subdivision attended the meeting at Rocky Vista University to organize in opposition to the project.

PHOTOS BY TOM SKELLEY we need recycling… but this isn’t the way,” said Maulik who, with his wife Terri, organized a Sept. 6 community meeting at Rocky Vista University, directly across Grasslands Drive from the project.

The Mauliks, who bought their home in 2015, urged their neighbors to pressure county officals to deny the project.

“We need them to be afraid to open their email,” Maulik said.

The meeting was attended by approximately 160 people, including Parker officials and state Rep. Kim Ransom, R-Acres Green.

The property was zoned for industrial use when it was purchased by 470

Compark, LLC, in 1998, and one of the principal uses by right listed in the original site application is a trashtransfer facility. That hasn’t changed.

But the surrounding landscape has.

History, zoning and annexation Since the property was purchased, the town of Parker has annexed and approved rezoning for most of the area around the property where the facility is planned.

The most recent change was in 2013 when the town annexed land on either side of Chambers Road. On the east side of Chambers, the annexation became Dove Meadows, on the west,

Colorado State Rep. Kim Ransom addresses a group of Parker residents at a meeting to organize against a proposed trash transfer and recycling facility in the Compark area. the land annexed extends to the eastern edge of the Vista South site.

That rezoning allowed single-family residential neighborhoods and redesignated the land around Rocky Vista from commercial to industrial use.

Parker Senior Planner Paul Workman started working for the department in April, and wouldn’t speculate about decisions made before his time.

He did say that the “light industrial zoning” the town approved for the annexed land doesn’t match the “heavy industrial” use of a trash-transfer facility on Vista South property.

ENGAGEMENT Marge and Bill McDonald commemorated their 70th wedding anniversary with a celebration at Bonaventure Senior Living on Sunday, September 3rd, 2017. They were married in Salina, Kansas in September, 1947, while attending Kansas University in Lawrence, Kansas.

They continued their education with Bill receiving a degree in petroleum geology and Marge a degree in education with a major in Social Studies and a minor in English. Bill retired in 1990 as a Consulting Geologist. Marge retired from Douglas County schools, from Castle Rock Junior High, in 1990.

Bill donated a lot of time to city government in Castle Rock on both Planning Commission and on Town Council. He served on the committee that set up the Charter for the new system of town government, and served as Mayor of Castle Rock.

Marge chaired the Centennial/Bicentennial for the junior high in 1976. She sponsored and accompanied students on multiple historical trips to the east coast and Europe. After retiring from her teaching career, Marge organized trips and tours for her locally-owned travel company. Marge and Bill made their home for 38 years in the Oak Ridge section of Castle Rock and are now residing at Bonaventure Senior Living in Castle Rock.

Their five children, Mark McDonald (Susan) of Midland, Texas, Laurie Anderson, Parker, CO, Kim McDonald (Dan Murphy) Parker, CO, Barb Larson, Castle Rock, CO, and Kellie McDonald (Curtis Poyner) Castle Rock, CO cohosted the anniversary celebration.

MAYOR FROM PAGE 5

That could mean an additional special election in February to get voter approval for pieces in the transitional plan. The town estimates a February special election would cost $37,195.

No official position from council Council spent hours debating the verbiage of the ballot question at its Aug. 1 and 15 meetings — a discussion where emotions at times ran high as the issue has left the council somewhat divided.

Councilmember Jess Loban has been supportive of an at-large mayor, although not the change to town districts.

Councilmember George Teal is one of the five petitioners who brought the measure forward and a longtime advocate for an elected mayor, leaving some to question if he intends to run for mayor should the measure pass.

It’s a question Councilmember Brett Ford — who opposes an at-large mayor but says he will respect the voters’s decision — bluntly asked Teal during council discussion.

Teal said he did not have plans to run for mayor at this time.

In another surprising moment, Loban publicly chastised Teal for

a Facebook message sent by Teal to Loban’s wife, in which Teal expressed frustration with Loban’s support of an at-large mayor but not the petitioners’ full proposal to cut the number of town districts.

“Eventually, I will pull your knives from my back and give them back,” Teal wrote in the exchange.

As Loban read parts of the messages aloud during council, Teal remained silent.

Meanwhile, Townsend says his position has shifted. In early discussions on the issue, Townsend questioned if changing the town’s mayoral system should be a priority, believing issues such as town growth were more important to his constituents.

Now, Townsend says he’s more open to discussing an at-large system if it could better address the town’s needs, but he still has concerns about the Nov. 7 ballot issue.

“If the town residents are interested in an at-large mayor, I wouldn’t be opposed to it,” he said. “I just don’t think that this particular ballot measure is that solution.”

Councilmember Jason Bower, who was at first open to the issue, has also taken a stronger stance since the petitions became public.

“I like how we have seven equal eyes on everything right now and the mayor is simply a council

person who runs the meetings,” Bower said in a written statement.

“I’m afraid if we glorify the mayor position and separate it from council, we will start to see outside money, big party politics and the big bad political man come to town.”

The council has not taken an official position on the issue, something they could have opted to do, Slentz said, and instead chose to maintain individual positions.

A large piece of council’s focus moving forward is on educating the public prior to the Nov. 7 election.

Council directed town staff to prepare an informational mailer that residents can expect in their mailboxes before ballots are mailed on Oct. 16.

Early drafts of the mailer are available online at CRgov.com.

Petitioners and opponents Citizens who spearheaded the at-large mayor petition say Castle Rock, now approaching 63,000 in population, has grown to where citizens should have more direct say in who represents them as mayor.

The group, Castle Rock Citizens for Elected Mayor, has a Facebook page and a website, castlerockcitizensforelectedmayor. com.

Their initiative would not grant an at-large mayor more power by

creating a strong-mayor system, they say, but does aim to hold the position more accountable to all of the town’s residents.

Petitioners who attended council meetings in recent weeks have worried overwhelming the public with all that could come by moving to an at-large system is a fear tactic that could dissuade voters from approving the issue.

But well before council’s recent debate, the petitioners’ movement was not without resistance.

Cliff Orr, a signer of the original town charter, has questioned if the petitioners fully thought out what shifting to an at-large mayoral system would entail, and said now may not be the right time for a change.

Orr’s sentiments were echoed

by Castle Rock resident Langford Jordan, who’s joined a countermovement dubbed Champions of the Charter to hopefully see the at-large mayor measure defeated.

The group formed in August and has a Facebook page, “Champions of the Charter.”

“There’s no timeline. There’s no framework. There’s no plan for how we’re going to execute this,” Jordan said of the initiative, adding he believes petitioners are well intended. “I think it will degrade the ability of town staff and council to serve the other needs because it’s going to consume a lot of their time.”

ChiliFest cooks up good time C

astle Rock came out to support Boy Scout Troop 780 on Sept.

9 at the 6th Annual ChiliFest — an annual fundraiser that supports the troop’s high-adventure program and Boy Scout trips. Crockpots and slow cookers lined tables at the Douglas County Fairgrounds and Events Center and the smell of chili filled the room as people walked about, sampling each chili recipe. Local restaurants provided some of the chili, while family or friends of Boy Scouts brought in more batches. And the Scouts themselves rounded out the sampling menu by bringing in their favorite recipes as well to help out the cause.

It has taken a while — my entire life — to figure something out. What I want and what I need are just about the same thing.

There are new technologies that I neither want nor need.

I don’t want Alexa.

I don’t want Tesla.

I don’t want a camera in my car or a camera in my refrigerator (Samsung makes one).

I don’t want to be able to turn my house lights on and off from a restaurant.

At what point is enough — enough? Whatever it is, I think I am there.

I don’t have a mobile device. Never have,

and never will, and I seem to be subsisting.

That was the last piece of my technology puzzle, and I solved it years ago. Don’t want one, don’t need one.

I do own and operate many of the usual suspects: a television with a remote, a garage door opener, and a dishwasher.

I am able to send a column like this to my editor without seeing my editor. Clark Kent couldn’t do that, and neither could Walter Winchell.

I can book flights at home, and ask not to be seated next to crying babies.

It used to take me half a day to make a tape of my favorite songs. Now I can create a CD with a few finger touches.

Focus on local newspapers

t would probably be easy to read a little bias into today’s column since I am a writer here, so please don’t judge too harshly.

WINNING With more WORDS than 1 billion users, and in some reports showing the numbers to be getting close to 2 billion people using social media, it is Michael Norton easy to see how some might confuse facts, share opinions and possibly mislead others or become misled themselves. There are also other studies that show where people get their news including TV, online, the radio, and print newspapers. I read one report that said 62 percent of adults consume the news online and another report that had that number as high as 81 percent. Of course, I got that data online, so maybe it’s accurate and then again maybe it’s not.

Social media and online news sources certainly have their value if we can discern

what is fact and what is opinion, and what is just completely wrong or false. With so much happening in the world and so many opinions from the far left, the far right, the left, the right, and all of the people right down the middle, it really does become difficult to choose what we want to focus on or pay attention to.

Now our community is so incredible, we always seem to rally and come together and become bound by the collective efforts we make to the national and international situations and crises whenever they happen.

So let me share with you what I am doing for the next few months. Without sounding like I am sticking my head in the sand like an ostrich, or caring about what is happening in our nation or the world, I am focusing on my local reality.

Our local community newspapers are filled with great information and that is where I want to spend my time. Inside these papers are great articles loaded with relevant information that lets us know what is happening here, nationally, and around the world.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2017

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Review redestricting decision Take a moment and think back where you were seven ago. In April, 2010 a townwide vote was taking place with two questions. To increase the term limits of council members from two to four years and to extend redistricting from three to six years.

Redistricting is the act of carving up the electorate into equal amounts of registered voters into districts each with a town council representative.

In preparation for the vote, the town sent out a mailer explaining “Castle Rock evaluates redistricting every three years.

This worked well when our population was steadily and quickly increasing every year.

Now that growth trends have leveled out, it’s not necessary to make subtle boundary changes as often.” (doc. 842

because chances are half of the registered voters reading this newspaper today were not even on the Castle Rock voter rolls seven years ago.

Mary Wilson Castle Rock

CRgov.com) Both initiatives passed with a quarter of the 22,300 registered voters of Castle Rock participating. Now zoom forward to 2017 where there are roughly 45,000 registered voters living within the town borders. The last redistricting was done in 2015. Far from leveling off, our voting population has doubled since 2010 and will probably double again as it is projected to do so.

If the ballot to allow citizens to vote for mayor is approved in November, the town will need to revisit redistricting as it reduces from seven to six districts to accommodate an atlarge elected mayor. Whether this passes or not, we need to review the decision to redistrict every six years and urge the town council to take steps to shorten this time period

Claims of district’s demise not true The current Douglas County School Board, yes, the one with the much-criticized “reform” majority, has saved us taxpayers $21 million of our hard-earned bucks in the last two years according to a June article in this publication.

How? Mostly by eliminating a bunch of administrative positions, which means anyone carping that the board spends too much on admin is dead wrong. Here’s a wake-up for those constantly bashing charter schools saying they “drain” district funding: none

of our charters get district or taxpayer funding to build their schools!

Dedicated charter boards, who are parents and private citizens (for-profit groups cannot by Colorado law start a charter school), after an extensive process of getting school board approval must go hat in hand to banks and other lenders with financial packages, just like any of us getting a mortgage. So surprise, surprise charters (which are public, neighborhood schools, remember) actually save the district (and all of us) actual money. Lots of it! Think of the schools we would have to build if they didn’t exist!

I am sick of this charter school and candidate bashing and people accusing DougCo education of going downhill.

Chew on this: our four-year graduation rates are 90.1 percent (state average is only 78.9, better than JeffCo, 82.8, and Cherry Creek, 88.1. Test scores are up in most areas (see the recent article in this publication) — DCSD’s average SAT score is 1,086.9, way above the state average and again higher than JeffCo and Cherry Creek.

There’s lots to like about the “Elevate” candidates.

Their dedication to fiscal responsibility, a second-tonone education and our kids’ future are sure some of the big reasons I’m voting to Elevate DougCo with Randy Mills, Ryan Abresch, Debora Scheffel, and Grant Nelson.

LETTERS FROM PAGE 13

Kids, not politics, must come first As a mom of four kids in Douglas County schools, I know that it is time to put kids, not politics, first. It is time to elect school board members who will make decisions that benefit students, teachers, and taxpayers alike.

My children range from preschool to eighth grade. My oldest three children attend a Castle Rock charter school. We have a lot of public choice in this district — open enrollment into neighborhood schools, charters, magnets, online and alternative schools, and homeschool programs.

Now we need smart management of all of the choices, good decisions about growth and capital improvements, and a school board that will encourage the community’s support of a high-quality education for all of our county’s children.

School Board candidates Anthony Graziano, Krista Holtzmann, Kevin Leung and Chris Schor will put our kids, and therefore the future well-being of our community, first. They will work to create a district that retains, and even better, attracts teachers again. Please become informed and vote for the best candidates for our kids and community. This mom of four is voting for Graziano, Holtzmann, Leung and Schor!

Jeanette Schwecke Castle Rock

SEPTEMBER 14, 2017S Here’s a vote for choice There are currently 15 highly successful public charter schools in Douglas County with five new charters approved in the last two years. This is a good thing if you love school choice and want the option to put your kids in a charter school.

Additionally, keeping a lid on property taxes, property owners are benefiting from new charter schools supporting our Douglas County 6 percent population growth and thus not requiring the construction of any new public schools. Taxpayers can’t find a better deal than charter schools.

However, this is not only an endorsement letter. Our current school choice is threatened by the anti-Elevate slate candidates opposing the four Elevate Douglas County school board candidates.

The anti-Elevate slate seems to be very closely aligned with the current minority school board members, Lemieux, Ray and Vogel.

I believe they would all support the return of unions back into Douglas County. The national teacher’s union position on charter schools is clear and threatens the existence of charter schools everywhere.

Contrary to the anti-Elevate slate’s alarmist propaganda about the damage by charter schools, traditional public schools are thriving along with the everexpanding public charter schools.

Careers

It appears competition is working very well here in Douglas County.

There are four Elevate Douglas County school board candidates in the upcoming November election worth looking at: Randy Mills, Ryan Abresch, Debora Scheffel and Grant Nelson. All four candidates support parental choice and believe different children learn best in different environments.

More information can be found about the Elevate Douglas County candidates at www.elevatedouglas county.com Rita Young Parker Time to restore faith in district My name is Andy Watkins, and I am a teacher in the Douglas County School District. I am writing this letter as a 17-year district veteran and a parent of a high school student also in the district to express my strong support for Krista Holtzmann, Anthony Graziano, Kevin Leung and Chris Schor, who are running in the Douglas County School Board election this fall.

I have seen the devastation that current and past “Elevate” board members have caused throughout the past eight years. I personally have witnessed the exodus of highly qualified teachers who have joined other districts for higher pay and honestly, more respect from top school board members and their “reformer”

administration. I have also seen how the exodus has severely affected my students and even my own child.

This year’s election is critical.

By voting for Krista Holtzmann, Anthony Graziano, Kevin Leung and Chris Schor, you will be voting for students, respect for teachers, and faith in the value of a public, local education.

Andy Watkins Lone Tree We must move forward I take issue with Aleta You in her recent letter “Fresh faces, ideas needed for Douglas County School board.”

The Elevate Douglas County slate of Mills, Abresch, Scheffel and Nelson represent ideas that will take us back once again to the chaotic times the Douglas County Schools experienced a few years ago. A mass exodus of good teachers and administration, plus unrest by both parents and students took place. Taxpayer money was spent on legal battles promoting vouchers. Does Douglas County Schools want to go there again?

The philosophies and reasonable approaches of Greziano, Holtzmann, Lueng and CiancioSchor seem a much wiser choice, for future leadership and stability in this district.

One frontier woman’s journal connects families across the ages

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he history of the Denver area is sometimes thought of in broad strokes — before this time there was one of black and white, cowboys and miners, bonnets and butter churns.

But our region was settled by families with the same hopes and fears we have today.

“When we look to the past and think about what they went through, it reminds us how familiar their experience was to our own,” said Dr. Derek Everett, a Colorado State University history professor. “What motivated a person in Colorado 150 years ago is what people worry about today: family, friends, your job, finding a place to live, opportunities for your children.”

Early Littleton settler Mollie Sanford, a newlywed farm girl from Nebraska, here with her husband Byron, kept an eloquent journal that reveals the similarities across the

in wagons, tents, and shelters made of carpets and bedding. I like the looks of the place.”

Mollie arrived a year after Denver was founded at the confluence of Cherry Creek and the South Platte River.

People, including families, were steadily arriving in hopes of getting in on the ground floor of a new boomtown.

The telegraph was still three years away, the railroad

a decade away.

“They were willing to take a chance,” said Dr. Stephen Leonard, a history professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver. “People had grown up hearing of settling Indiana or Minnesota. They had an adventuresome spirit.”

But one person’s adventure is another’s nightmare.

“Husbands write about what an exciting adventure this is,” Everett said. “Wives

write that they married the stupidest man on the planet, who has dragged them off into the middle of godforsaken nowhere to be murdered or starve to death.”

Down on the farm Mollie and Byron eventually found themselves in the upper South Platte Valley, among a growing community of farmers and ranchers about where Sheridan is today.

Mollie took to prairie life with good graces.

“June 1, 1861: There can’t be much jealousy, for one is not much better off than others, so there is a feeling of brotherhood with all.”

Life on a prairie farm was monotonous and labor intensive, said Andrea Wilhelm, a historical interpreter at the Littleton Museum, a living history village.

Typical farms of the region were 160 acres, and often had a garden and livestock to provide sustenance, and fields of rye, barley and wheat.

“Someone got up before dawn to milk the cow,” Wilhelm said. “Then a big breakfast before heading out to the fields to work. There was never much down time.”

While men worked the fields, wives’ tasks included laundry, ironing, cooking and SEE FRONTIER, P17

alized learning, but music class provides more a social experience,” he said. “Music is one of the oldest human activities, and its one of the things we’re able to bring to students that feeds the soul.”

Both Andres and Otis agree that the important part of music education is not turning students into professional musicians, but getting them involved in music — something they can do for the rest of their lives.

“Music education is just as important as the academic courses because it gives students a place to belong,” Otis said. “You can catch a kid and help them find their identity in a way you can’t in other areas.”

As someone who discovered themselves through music, I will never fully be able to repay the debt to those who taught me about the art early on. We owe it to all future generations to keep the music playing on and on.

On Sundays many people went to church, a rare chance for entertainment and music. Men often congregated on Sunday afternoons at the post office, where all news of the outside world arrived.

Suffer the little children Life on the frontier was hard on the body.

“September 25, 1861: My little babe was born, a beautiful boy, but he did not stay with us. God took him to his fold, this one pet lamb. When I first looked on his little face, he was in his little coffin, dressed in one of the sweetest robes I had made, into whose stitches I had woven dreams of my angel baby.”

Mollie fell into a bit of a funk after the stillbirth, writing nearly a year later, while pregnant again: “July 4, 1862: O! but this is the most indolent life I ever led. Were I to write each day’s events, it would be, ‘Got up. Got breakfast, eat, washed dishes, got dinner, ate again,’ and so on, each succeeding day the same.”

Mollie’s first child was born that fall: “November 10, 1862: I introduce to these pages my sweet baby boy, my little Bertie… A regular little captain, already giving his orders, with no intention of having them disregarded.”

Little Bertie likely grew up fast,

FAVORITE SONG: “Subplots” CHILLEST RESISTANCE SONG OF THE YEAR: “My Mind is For Sale”

Wilhelm said.

“There wasn’t much of a notion of childhood,” Wilhelm said. “Parents allowed some level of play, but children were learning to sew by age 2 or 3.

There were no idle hands. If you were sitting around the fire, you might as well be knitting.”

Families often had five or six kids, and sometimes more than a family could handle. Wilhelm recalled a Western Slope doctor of the period who sent out young assistants with wire to perform abortions.

Tensions rise The influx of settlers displaced the native tribes who had lived in the region for ages prior.

A series of reprisal killings in the summer of 1864 heated relations between settlers and natives to the boiling point.

In June 1864, ranch hand Nathan Hungate, his wife Ellen, and their

two daughters were found murdered, scalped and mutilated on a remote ranch near what is today Elizabeth.

The Hungates’ bodies were displayed on Larimer Street in Denver, and the story of the murdered family was used to whip up public anger and calls for a final solution to the Indian problem.

In September 1864, Mollie took in three recently recovered settlers who had been held hostage by natives, including a little girl: “The girl saw her father butchered...

She would wake from a sound sleep, and sit up in bed with staring eyes, and go in detail over the whole thing.”

Paranoia ran high in the charged atmosphere, and Mollie writes, “It was about 11 o’clock that a horseman came tearing up the road, dismounting at our door… he gasped out, knees knocking together, ‘Run, wimmen! Run for your lives, the Injuns are coming!’”

The warning turned out to be a false

alarm.

“It turned out people got scared of a cloud of dust they thought was Indians,” Leonard said.

The paranoia culminated in the Sand Creek Massacre, when on Nov. 29, U.S. forces launched a dawn sneak attack on a peaceful Arapaho and Cheyenne village, killing upwards of 200, mostly women and children. Ensuing years saw natives pushed back to the margins, herded onto barren reservations.

Not so wild west Mollie had a second child in 1866, introducing “my baby girl, a dimpled, blue-eyed, brown-haired darling. We call her ‘Dora Bell,’ and although hard times are with us, and troubles surround us, we are happy.”

With the arrival of the first locomotive in Denver in 1870 came an era of explosive growth. Denver’s population in 1870 was virtually unchanged from when Mollie arrived 10 years earlier, but in the decade following the train’s arrival, the city swelled by almost 650 percent. Telephones, streetcars, opera houses, churches and hotels transformed the city. The rough frontier Mollie and her family settled was fading into memory.

The young lady who watched the rugged West go tame died at age 76 in 1915, only a few months after her husband.

She closes her journal: “I pray for grace, patience, and judgment, and for long and useful lives for us all.”

Author gives details on process of creation Wendy Terrien launches two new titles in Jason Lex Adventure Series CALM AFTER THE STORM

SM

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“The first book took me five years,” said Highlands Ranch author Wendy Terrien, talking about her carefully plotted “Rampart Guards,” which was named to Kirkus Review’s Best Books of 2016. Her Jason Lex Adventure Series follows with two new titles, just published in August: “The League of Governors” and “The Clan Calling.”

In an Aug. 16 book talk at Tattered Cover Aspen Grove, she explained that she had two main characters developed and they each had a story …

“The characters really take over,” she told the group of readers. “In `The Rampart Guards,’ I originally had a different ending in mind.” Someone asked if there was a particular order in which to read the two new ones, and Terrien’s critique group friend answered that she thought alternating would work well. (Jason joins his father and sister London, where they consult the League of Governors, while his friend, Sadie Callahan, is staying in the small town in in the Northwest where they lived, so a different volume covers her story.) The paranormal world surrounds both young people.

“I was watching TV and folding laundry and heard some mention of a `cryptozoologist,’” the author of Young Adult titles recalled. That led her to a world of creatures that most of us can’t see … (Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, etc.). Jason, whose mother is missing, is pursued by a horde of flying creatures, criptids, learns he has remarkable powers, and is affected by a mysterious coin that glows.

R t p d L e His uncle, a nicely conceived quirky m fellow, with a fascinating laboratory, m helps him understand and deal with a an increasingly challenging world, which comes with life-or-death deci- a m sions to be made …

Terrien strongly recommends con- c necting with a critique group when u one is developing a book. She meets b with one at Tattered Cover, where t m each member reads aloud from a new chapter and the others talk T about it. With another group, she sends pages in advance, which will be discussed.

She said she “had no idea what will happen yet” in the next books. They will also surely appeal to both teens and adults who want to enter a world that combines realism and fantasy.

Terrien has been named 2017 Independent Writer of the Year by the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers.

Young Adult author Wendy Terrien writes urban fantasy tales for teens and adults. She lives and writes in Highlands Ranch.

‘The Mystery of Love and Sex’ is offered by Firehouse Theater Company

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Family dynamics have for centuries provided the basis for drama. Playwright Bathsheba Doran gives the audience a contemporary spin as we sit in on a dinner party with decidedly 21st-century elements in Firehouse Theater Company’s regional premiere production of “The Mystery of Love and Sex.” It runs through Oct. 7 at the John Hand Theater in Lowry.

Suzanne Conners Nepi of Highlands Ranch, an active member of Denver’s theater community, said “it’s a timely piece — tackles so many subjects discussed these days …” In the role of Lucinda, Nepi starts out as “a Southern ornamental wife” (and Jewish mother), a free spirit, who “may have married for the wrong reasons.”

Lucinda’s daughter Charlotte (white and Jewish) had defied her parents and turned down opportunities at more prestigious schools to share a college experience at a Deep South university with her roommate and best friend Jonny (black and Christian). He has been almost a family member since childhood.

Their college room is the scene: They have invited Charlotte’s parents,

IF YOU GO “THE MYSTERY OF LOVE AND SEX,” produced by Firehouse Theater Company, plays through Oct 7 at the John Hand Theater, 7653 E. First Place in Lowry, Denver. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays; 2 p.m.

Sundays. Tickets: $20-$23, firehousetheatercompany.com, 303-562-3232. Note: due to sexual content, may be inappropriate for children under 13.

Lucinda and Howard, for dinner (soup and dry bread).

Father Howard writes mysteries and is the subject of Jonny’s college thesis, which offers an analysis ... and issues.

Nepi commented that the play, at times, may show a kindred spirit to Edward Albee’s powerful “Whose Afraid of Virginia Woolf,” in which she has also performed, with its look at a disintegrating marriage.

“It’s thoughtful, perhaps a strain autobiographical … It comes full circle — with all kinds of secrets …”

Described by Firehouse Theater Company as “a compelling, spirited story of intricate relationships, an entertaining and explosive look at race, sexual identity and family dynamics,” and is now living and working in New York after a period in Los Angeles.

Involvement in a new play is sort of like catnip for an experienced actor.

Nepi said she “had found myself in a decent number of classics …” This offers a different sort of challenge for a cast — and for an audience.

Thousands climb in remembrance of 9/11 The Colorado 9/11 stair climb drew 2,000

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The registration table was scattered with badges, each one with the face of someone who lost their life on Sept. 11, 2001.

As the American flag flapped in the wind, attached to two fire truck ladders, more than 2,000 firefighters, paramedics and civilians readied to climb 110 flights of stairs at Red Rocks Amphitheater — a memorial to the 110 stories climbed by firefighters 16 years ago at the World Trade Center.

“We all remember 9/11 — where you were at, what you were doing, how you felt,” said Laurelyn Norberry, 32, a volunteer firefighter with Evergreen Fire and Rescue. “So this is our chance to remember, pay respects and do something to

honor those who have fallen.”

The ninth annual Colorado 9/11 Stair Climb drew climbers from 60 fire departments and 16 states.

The Stair Climb benefits the FDNY Counseling Services Unit and the programs provided by the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation to support the families of our nation’s fallen.

As tribute, many firefighters climbed in full bunker gear.

“It’s just the culture,” said Lt. Brenden Finnegan with West Metro Fire. “It shows respect to the firefighters who work in NYC and lost their lives that day.”

Finnegan has been participating in the event since it began.

“It’s a great experience to come and be with all your friends and family crew members and remember 9/11,” he said. “Some of us lost friends in the towers — both firefighters and civilians. It’s just a good experience to be part of.”

Members of West Metro and South Metro Fire came together to raise the American flag for the opening ceremony at the Colorado 9/11 Stair Climb.

Tags honoring those who died on Sept. 11, 2001 were available for climbers to wear in remembrance of the lives lost.

West Metro firefighters Chris Trost and Tyler Hecox lead the pack up the south ramp at Red Rocks Amphitheatre carrying the American and Colorado flags.

Couple working to build community for disabled Centennial residents seek support to establish Tall Tales Ranch in Lone Tree

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Susan and Pat Mooney face the same dilemma as many parents of developmentally disabled children: What will become of their son when they’re gone?

The Centennial couple, whose 23-year-old son Ross suffered brain damage as a result of a genetic disorder in his early teens, explored their options: group homes or institutions, many with years-long waiting lists.

Dissatisfied with the offerings, the Mooneys elected to create their own:

St. Anthony continues to grow with new options Hospital maintains technological advancements

Pack, who works in the blood bank.

“There’s a lot of pride in knowing we’re helping to save someone’s life.

I really like my job.”

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If you ask Bert Hargrave, it’s a good sign that his employees really like talking about their work. It means they’re enjoying what they do.

Which is what a boss wants when their employees are responsible for something as important as numerous hospitals’ laboratory work.

“We receive about 2,000 tubes a day for different kinds of testing,” Hargrave, who is the laboratory supervisor at St. Anthony Hospital, said. “We take the blood and other materials we have, and turn that into data.”

When St. Anthony opened in Lakewood a little over six years ago, it changed the city, bringing new employment and health care opportunities to the Union Boulevard corridor.

“It’s been amazing to see what has happened because of St. Anthony, which has become one of our largest private employers,” said Mayor Adam Paul. “There’s a whole new energy in the Union corridor, and they’ve been a great partner.”

Robert Smith, Lakewood’s economic development manager, agreed, and added one only need look at all the development on Union to see proof of St. Anthony’s impact.

“Medical businesses and practices like to be near major medical facilities like St. Anthony’s,” he said. “ Many of these types of businesses have located in the office buildings both on and near the campus. There are at least 60 medical offices on or within a half mile of the hospital.”

Ever since its opened, the facility has gone about growing and expanding its treatment options for those in need.

“We’re looking for ways to be more efficient and easy to use,” said Annette Kancilia, clinical nurse manager at the hospital’s new outpatient surgery center. “We’re streamlining processes at the hospital, while staying right across the street.”

Bert Hargrave, St. Anthony Hospital’s lab supervisor, explains how some of the blood testing machinery works. The lab generates close to 1.5 million billable tests annually.

CLARKE READER

A trip to the hospital’s lab shows the ways St. Anthony has always been looking to innovate, and the newly opened outpatient surgery center highlights its commitment to growth.

A lab for more than St. Anthony A couple months ago, Hargrave decided it was time to share all the work done in the lab with the rest of the campus’ employees. So he started giving half-hour tours every Tuesday afternoon to any employee who wants to see the work they do.

“We wanted to improve relations between this department and the rest,” he explained. “People use us all the time, but I don’t think a lot of them know everything we do.”

St. Anthony’s lab not only does the bulk of the hospital’s own blood work, urine testing, pathology and more, but it also does it for all 17 Centura hospitals in Colorado and those in Kansas. It generates close to 1.5 million billable tests per fiscal year.

Technicians employ some of the latest and greatest technology to make sure everything is done quickly and properly. The lab has

separate areas for blood work, chemistry, microbiology, urine analysis, and a blood bank. It is staffed 24 hours a day, Hargrave explained, and relies on constant communication to ensure employees are prepared for an emergency.

“It’s a nonstop process, sending coolers of the right kind of blood up when there’s a trauma,” said Marty

Expanding to separate outpatient The health care industry has seen a lot of change in recent years, and one is the increase of free standing outpatient services to cut down on costly visits to the emergency room.

St. Anthony embraced the change by opening its only outpatient surgery center just across from the main hospital the week of Sept. 11.

“Our two medical buildings are right around 95 percent occupied, so this building frees up space from patients and physicians alike,” said Peter Powers, chief operating officer at St. Anthony. “Being a level one trauma center, it can get really busy in the operating rooms, so having this separate outpatient facility will benefit everyone.”

The facility will start out doing general, hand and non-cosmetic plastic and reconstructive surgery. By the end of the year, it will also provide sports medicine services.

“We have three operating rooms at the facility, which will allow us to focus on shorter cases, and healthier patients than those who have to go to the hospital,” said Kancilia. “You’re seeing more facilities like these, and it helps us to streamline what we’re doing.”

Coventry Development effectively donated land as part of the historic Schweiger Ranch to build Tall Tales Ranch, an intentional community where developmentally disabled people will live alongside “neurotypical” people.

somebody will look at him and ask him how his day was,” Susan Mooney said. “Most developmentally disabled folks, by the time they’re a little older, don’t have a family of their own. It’s one thing to put a roof over somebody’s head, but they need community too.”

Though ground likely won’t be broken on Tall Tales Ranch for another three years, the Mooneys are hard at work drumming up support and sponsors for the project. They’re holding the third annual Tall Tales Hoedown on Sept. 22 at the Lone Tree Arts Center, where “special needs ambassadors” — young people who may one day be residents of Tall Tales Ranch — will hold a talent show and gala.

The dream is seeming more tangible than ever this year, after Coventry Development donated a land lease in perpetuity to the project, on part of the historic Schweiger Ranch across I-25 from Cabela’s on RidgeGate Parkway.

Susan Mooney said Tall Tales Ranch will likely consist of duplex cottages housing a total of 50 people — 25 developmentally disabled, and 25 “neurotypicals.” On-site staff will help administer medications.

She also envisions livestock, community garden plots and a barn that will double as a community center and coffee shop, designed to provide residents with income and the ranch with revenue.

The neurotypical residents are likely to be interns or students from a variety of mental health care and medical training programs, Susan Mooney said.

The developmentally disabled residents, whom the Mooneys call “ranchers,” will likely be folks without significant medical needs, but who would still struggle to live on their own.

Neurotypicals will not have mandated duties beyond being dedicated members of the community, Susan Mooney said.

“They won’t be doing therapeutic tasks, just being a neighbor and having meals with the ranchers, or taking care of the property or the animals,” she said.

The ranch’s funding model is still being developed, Pat Mooney said.

Currently, Tall Tales Ranch is actively seeking donations and sponsorships, and he said they hope to being seeking grants.

Once the ranch is completed, funding might come from private payments as well as Medicaid and Social Security funds.

Taking on a project like Tall Tales Ranch sometimes seems daunting, said Pat Mooney, who for the last 20 years has run a business selling and installing artificial turf for golf putting greens. He said eager partners have been emerging to help the couple navigate the water.

“We’re fortunate to have some bright minds in industries that can help us maneuver the system,” he said. “That’s the key to a nonprofit’s success is relationships with people who can help you.”

There’s not a magic number for funding the project, Susan Mooney said. They expect the project may cost anywhere from $2 million to $6 million to get off the ground. Three years of fundraising have netted gains toward that goal, though currently much of the funds are going to general operations, growing the project, seeking partnerships and other costs.

Parents of other disabled children are eager to see the project take shape.

“This means security,” said Ann Beetham, of Littleton, whose disabled 26-year-old son Alex will likely need housing someday.”Right now, there are people who have been on a housing list since the late 1980s. There’s a desperate need. There are aging parents who have no idea what’s going to happen to their children with disabilities.”

Pat Mooney said the dire need for the project keeps his fire burning.

“This is going to be our life’s work,” he said. “We’re committed to getting it done. It’s been an amazing journey, and we’re getting more people involved, and that snowball is growing.”

Elbert commissioners OK development Up to 920 homes may be built over coming years in area between Elizabeth and Parker

sion improvement agreement (SIA) now states that prior to obtaining building permit 371, Craft Companies must have the road completed.

“At that point there will be two entrances, one off County Road 5 and one off Delbert Road at the north,” Willcox said.

BY JODI HORNER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

After 12 hours of public hearings that spanned three evenings and concluded on Sept. 7, the application for the housing development known as Independence in Elbert County was unanimously approved by the three-member Board of County Commissioners.

“We are especially pleased that it was an unanimous decision by the BOCC,” said developer Tim Craft of Craft Companies.

Independence will be located at Hilltop Road/County Road 158 and County Road 5 and will cover 1,012 acres, including a minimum 420 acres of open space.

“Ideally, we hope to break ground in the next 45 days,” Craft said.

“Improvements on the land should take about a year,” with the larger piece of that time devoted to construction of the water reuse and recycling facility within the development, Craft said.

More than 200 people were in attendance for the first evening of the hearings, where two-thirds of the citizens who stood to speak during public comment were opposed to the project.

Many of the opponents belonged to a group called Stop Over-Development (SOD) and wore T-shirts with the SOD logo on them.

Among the issues brought up by citizens were concerns about water being exported from the area, whether the new population would truly bring commerce to the area or to nearby Parker, the potential odor from the water treatment facility, the number of special districts, traffic and density of the housing.

“I wish the number of people who had attended the first night were there at the second night, where rebuttals were given to answer their concerns,” said Commissioner Chris Richardson after the vote to approve

Special districts counsel Diane Miller speaks to the county commissioners about Craft Companies’ reasons for including the material modification to the service plans in the application at the Sept. 7 public hearing for the Independence development. JODI HORNER the Independence applications.

Water issues Water supply was one of the biggest concerns and was brought up repeatedly by residents attending the first night of the hearing.

Craft emphasized that economical land use by the “clustered density program” uses 25 percent of the water of a small acreage lot. A small acreage would be 1.5 to 2 acres.

The point was also made that a recent study done by Forsgren Associates determined that Elbert County has at least a 300-year water supply beneath it.

In addition to water supply, the concern was raised about odor coming from the treatment plant.

“It’s waste water, thus there’s going to be an odor,” said water and sanitation consultant to Craft Companies David Takeda.

Takeda is one of two engineers designing the water reuse and recycling facility, which is a class three — the highest rating possible — and the first of its kind in the state.

“The worst part of it is indoors,” where the solids are contained, Takeda said.

“It’s like Parker’s water system except smaller,” said Takeda, “and it’s

nicer looking than I originally anticipated.”

Traffic concerns One benefit of the development to the county is that “roads will be improved or constructed by Craft Companies, not on the county’s dime,” said Commissioner Danny Willcox.

Craft Companies will be responsible for the improvements and construction of 2 1/2 miles of county road by the time the second phase of development is one-fourth of the way complete.

Independence is slated to have at least four main phases.

Ultimately, property taxes from the homes in Independence will provide the revenue for the road maintenance in that area.

One major issue for the commissioners was the initial plan for just one entrance into the development to service the large community of homes.

To address this concern, Craft Companies agreed to add a temporary secondary entrance during the building phase for fire protection.

In addition, a permanent secondary entrance will be constructed sooner than originally planned, connecting Delbert Road to Singing Hills.

To ensure its timeliness, the subdivi-

Special districts Citizens expressed concerns over the six metro districts that would be established to operate Independence, fearing they would enable Independence to have too much control within the county.

Special district counsel for Craft Companies Diane Miller spoke to the commissioners about the creation of the six metropolitan districts for the development, saying that these districts, which act as local governments, “are the most common local government in Colorado.”

There are now 2,500 of them in the state, she said.

Craft presented a slide illustrating the point that numerous developments in the area utilize several metro districts each for their operations.

“Districts are job creators,” Craft explained, saying there would be 500 permanent jobs created at build-out.

Commissioner Grant Thayer pointed to an issue with the material modification to the service plans, since it would have enabled the developer to potentially alter the original boundaries of the districts and serve other areas around the development.

Thayer said the boundaries of the districts should be firmly established in advance and not subject to change.

Miller explained their reasoning for the material modification to the service plans, saying: “There is some concern that neighbors in the future will need some water and service.”

Craft also said that Elbert County’s Department of Community and Development Services had encouraged the material modification to the service plans.

It was a sticking point for the commissioners.

ogy of our community,” Thayer said to Miller and Craft. “There is great fear that we’ll be merged with another metro district or export water.

“If you want to step outside the metro district, if you want to do it without coming to us first, I’m afraid — I’m not afraid — I’m pretty sure you’ll have trouble,” Thayer said as the room erupted with applause.

After consulting with his legal team during a recess at the second meeting, Craft made the concession to meet the request of the commissioners.

“By placing borders around the metro districts, they can’t do anything with any of their metro districts’ infrastructure outside of their borders without a notice to public hearing and approval by the BOCC,” Thayer later said.

In addition, any request for shared services must be initiated by an entity other than Independence.

Density questions According to the research from the state demographer presented by Tim Craft, Elbert County needs 600 homes per year to manage its projected growth.

“The information from the state demographer in the most recent study from the 2008 western county transportation plan has been historically accurate,” Thayer said in an interview after the vote.

The study predicts that by the year 2030 the county will need an additional 9,000 homes.

Lawyer Joe Kinlaw, representing Jackie Tugwell and Shelly Rodie, both from Elizabeth, spoke to the commissioners posing what he believed was a direct breach of zoning regulations, stating that some of the lots planned

by Craft Companies were 5,000 square feet and that Elbert County requires a minimum of 7,000 square feet per lot.

Land-use attorney David Foster, representing Craft Companies, rebutted: “The minimum lot size made clear in the PUD” indicates that “there would be a lot of lot sizes … Just because there are smaller lots doesn’t mean you get to build more lots.

“There are 920 lots, and zoning regulates 920 units,” Foster said.

Craft also spoke to the matter.

“Smart growth typically occurs through master plans, and although clustered homes look different than a typical Elbert County community, they use less water, less land, and pay their own way while reserving more open space,” Craft said.

If 920 homes were each set on 25 acres, they would require revenue for the homes to cover 100 miles of roads, which is far less cost- and resourceefficient, Craft said.

Fiscal impact Independence “more than pays its own way,” said Craft, by generating surplus revenue for the county with a positive $250,000 from the estimated 7.2 percent assessment rates on the properties.

There would also be “considerable additional revenue from a variety of additional fees,” with a total annual net benefit $800,000, Craft said.

Although Elizabeth resident and business owner Shawn Strain stood in support of the population increase from the development, several opponents argued that the newcomers to the community would not be any more likely to shop in Elizabeth and Kiowa than current residents, many of whom shop in Parker.

The new development will be “as close to Parker as it is to Elizabeth,” said Elizabeth resident Jennie Aquino.

Superintendent Douglas Bissonette spoke in favor of the development, saying he anticipated a positive impact on area schools, increasing revenue and with an outcome that will “better utilize our current buildings that are under capacity.”

Bissonette also said that the development could benefit teachers in need of affordable housing.

With minimum home prices in the low $300,000s, the affordability of the costs of the future homes were challenged by citizens to the board of commissioners and Craft Companies.

Craft responded with research from Zillow indicating that only five homes in the same area were cheaper than the lowest-priced homes would be in Independence, and all five were either dilapidated or very old and in need of repair.

Commissioners give green light In the closing moments of the final meeting, the commissioners each took a turn explaining their reasoning for the vote they were about to make.

“I’ve spend more time with this box of material than I have with my family,” said Richardson as he pointed to the pile of papers and booklets about the project.

Although the group of citizens opposing the project was very vocal, “it equates to less than 1 percent of the folks that live in this county,” he said.

“It’s not going to change the nature of our county. New York City doesn’t define the United States, and Denver doesn’t define Colorado.”

Thayer gave his reasons in a list of pros and cons, which included the positive of open space.

“What we have now isn’t truly open space, it’s really five-acre corrals,” Thayer said.

“If we take 920 homes without open space, give them five-acre lots, that covers 15 square miles,” said Thayer.

“Think about that.”

“The idea of open space available to the public is appealing to me.”

Thayer also said the traffic concerned him, but adding the additional second permanent entrance and using a second temporary entrance gave him enough peace of mind to vote yes.

Willcox opened his remarks with a story from personal experience.

“I got a lot of emails saying: `How would you like it?’” he said.

“I moved here 20 years ago and the guy behind me who owned 25 acres didn’t like it. A PUD was approved near my house and the developer came and talked to the whole neighborhood, and most people didn’t like it.

“So I do understand the feeling, I do,” Willcox said.

Willcox also pointed to the water study that indicated a long-term supply beneath the county, which he cited as 400 years and said “really put my mind at ease.”

Brent Adams was introduced Sept. 5 as the new boys lacrosse coach for the Falcons of Highlands Ranch High School. He became another wellrecognized lacrosse coach as the sport continues to draw qualified coaches to Colorado high school OVERTIME teams.

I recall years ago when there were derogatory comments about the quality of prep soccer coaches, but the remarks have quieted as more knowledgeable people have joined the coachJim Benton ing ranks.

Those kinds of observations never began in lacrosse, which has attracted top college and professional players to coach at many schools.

Adams, who was an All-American selection at Fairfield University, comes from Valor Christian, where he was an assistant coach under former professional lacrosse legend John Grant Jr. Adams played for the Chesapeake Bayhawks and Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse.

In 2016 he signed with the Denver Outlaws of the MLL and is currently in the second year of a two-year contract with the Colorado Mammoth of the National Lacrosse League.

Adams, 26, replaces Outlaws captain Matt Bocklet who left Highlands Ranch to coach defending state champion Cherry Creek.

“If you have a coach that is creditable, for lack of a better word, it allows players to commit to the sport a little more when they know they are getting good instruction that you really can’t find at a lot of schools,” said Adams.

Elizabeth hat shop is top of the line Brook Briddle brings time, expertise to custom work

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Every Western wear store has cowboy hats on display, but the display on the wall of the Powder River shop in Elizabeth is unique because owner and hatmaker Brook Briddle created each hat.

“I have always liked hats, I always wore hats as a kid and I still like hats today,” Briddle said while creating a hat in the shop at 211 Main St. “I got interested in working with hats when I was a kid watching my brother mess with my hats and I really liked watching a lady named Joyce Meyers in a Western store in Glenwood Springs clean and repair hats and I thought I would like to do that. I was lucky enough to get a job in a hat store when I was in college, had jobs in a couple of other hat shops and I learned the craft through experience and ended up opening my shop here in Elizabeth 14 years ago.”

A Powder River hat begins in a factory in Kentucky as a beaver pelt. In the factory the pelt is felted. Felting, according to the University of California at Santa Cruz website, is a term for applying moisture and agitation to fur in a way so that the fur fibers shrink to create usable material, in this case the material used to make hats.

The felting process produces a hat body that is made to Biddle’s specification and arrives as a shapeless crown attached to a wide brim. He said the bodies come in very raw, so a first step is to put them over a block and sand them to a smooth finish. Another step is the sweat band.

Instead of a premade sweat band, Biddle cuts out all the leather for the band and sews it in place inside of the body.

He said it takes 13 steps to attach the sweat band to the body.

He demonstrated how a hat can be shaped as he took hat body and used steam while

The wall on the left is a display showing some of the hats Brook Briddle has made in the 14 years he has owned and operated the Powder River hat shop in Elizabeth. Briddle begins with a beaver fur felt body to create a Western hat made specifically for its new owner.

“That only takes a few minutes but takes a long time to make a hat because it is done in stages. I’d say it takes me six weeks or more to complete hat made to order for a customer,” the Littleton native said. “I feel every customer I have is the most important customer I have ever made a hat for. I have worked to build a solid reputation and I am known for making hats for true cowboys who live in their hats. I build hats for a lot of people but I take pride as being known as the cowboy’s hatter.”

He said he builds hats to last.

“The guys I build hats for wear them every day, and some of them say I save them money because my hats last so they don’t have to buy a new hat every year or so,” Briddle said. “The quality of

the hats I build can last four to eight years and the wearability of the hats I build is far better than any hat you can buy off the shelf.”

Quality comes at a price, and Briddle said the average customer pays from $600 to $750 to have a custom hat built.

His craft is unique and he said he has return customers who come to him to do repairs or to build a new hat for them or as a gift. He also said most new customers come to the shop because someone told them about Powder River.

Tim Brantley was in the shop picking up a hat Briddle had modified and repaired.

“I have been doing businesses with Brook for more than 10 years,” said Brantley.

“He is the best hat maker around and the only one who can do it right. Our family has bought several hats from him and we have had others

TRASH FROM PAGE 9

“It’s not complementary of heavy industrial uses like a trash-transfer facility,” Workman said.

On that, at least, he and Douglas County Community Development Director Terence Quinn agree.

“It isn’t complementary,” Quinn said.

“Why did they rezone it then?”

Quinn is charged with approving or denying a site-improvement plan filed by the current owner, Vista South, the company that purchased the land in 2016.

Quinn said he understands concerns about odors, visual impacts and traffic, and said Vista South has to address those details as part of the approval process.

Quinn added that he and Parker’s Public Works department are working together to address transportation and other impacts and that he is providing updates to Parker’s Community Development department. He’s also waiting for referrals from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and Tri-County Health before making any decision.

But Quinn said it wasn’t the county’s decision to approve zoning that put the Mauliks and their neighbors near the site.

“We haven’t changed a thing, the town has changed these things,” Quinn said.

“They’ve made these decisions to annex.

We can’t be responsible for their decision making... This has been zoned for a long time. Because you decide (to put residential housing) in proximity to this site, I can’t take that property right away.”

Intergovernmental disagreement Parker Mayor Mike Waid agreed that possible principal uses for the land have always included a trash-transfer facility, but said other uses, such as a golf course, could have gone there. He referenced a 2003 intergovernmental agreement between the county and town.

“How does this fit into our IGA, our inter-governmental agreement that says we will work cooperatively to do what is best for all of our citizens?” he said. “(The county) did not do that.”

But Quinn said the agreement itself is evidence of working cooperatively.

“That was their first bite at the apple.

They could have said, ‘We don’t like that use in our IGA and we need to change that,’ ” Quinn said. “They did not… They knew it was there and continued.”

Approval- or denial- of the improvement plan is an ongoing process, Quinn said, and he is still “in the middle” of it. After referrals from CDPHE and Tri-County Health, and the finished site improvement plan from Vista South, he’ll make his decision, which could be appealed by Vista South or the Mauliks and their neighbors.

But Quinn stressed that the approval process is based on the zoning for the land,and a facility like the one Vista South is a use by right.

That’s the law, and he has to follow it.

“I cannot arbitrarily take that property right away… We have to look for facts,” Quinn said. “If through our process they are unable to comply with our approval criteria, there is no problem telling them no. But for us to just go in and say `we don’t want this here’ without the approval process, then we have trouble.”

Services

ZONING HISTORY OF THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION 1955: Douglas County zones the land for Agricultural and Forest use in the county’s first Zoning Resolution.

1998: Applicant 470 Compark, LLC, requests rezoning the land to Planned Development, allowing for commercial and industrial use, including office buildings and trash-transfer facilities.

2002: Douglas County approves a zoning request by 470 Compark, LLC, to allow multi-family use of the land east of Chambers Road.

2003: The Town of Parker and Douglas County form an inter-governmental agreement, or IGA, in May. The IGA permitted industrial development, such as trash-transfer facilities, office buildings and golf courses, as principal uses.

Properties, LLC. The rezoning changed the uses around the county property west of Chambers Road to primarily commercial, not industrial use.

2008: Rocky Vista University is built on land annexed by the town the previous year.

2013: Land east of Chambers Road, later to become the Dove Meadows subdivision, is annexed by the town. A rezoning request is approved to allow single-family residential development.

The rezoning also reversed the “downzoning” of land west of Chambers Road and reinstated industrial use of the land north of Grasslands Drive and west of Chambers Road.

2003: Compark Properties, LLC, purchases the land from 470 Compark, LLC.

2016: Vista South LLC, contacts Douglas County Planning Department to identify districts where a trash-transfer facility is permitted as a principal use.

2007: The Town of Parker annexes portions of the area and approves rezoning requested by Compark

2016: Vista South, LLC, purchases the 11.5- acre property from Compark Properties, LLC.

What’s next? The Douglas County Planning Department is currently reviewing the improvement plan from Galloway and Company. The county will submit the revised plan to Tri-County Health and the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment for technical review. Either the applicant or residents may appeal any decision made by the county. County officials say the appeal process, if it occurs, could go on for several months.

Sec. 11-7-350: DESIGN STANDARDS (A) The requirements set forth in this Section shall apply to the location and design of all WCFs governed by this Division; provided, however, that the Director may waive these requirements it if determines that the goals of this Division are better served thereby. To that end, WCFs shall be designed and located to minimize the impact on the surrounding neighborhood and to maintain the character and appearance of the City, consistent with other provisions of this Code.

1. Camouflage/Concealment. All WCFs and any Transmission Equipment shall, to the extent possible, use Camouflage Design Techniques including, but not limited to the use of materials, colors, textures, screening, undergrounding, or other design options that will blend the WCF to the surrounding natural setting and/or built environment. Design, materials and colors of WCFs shall be compatible with the surrounding environment. Designs shall be compatible with structures and vegetation located in the Public Rightof-Way and on adjacent parcels. (a) Camouflage design may be of heightened importance where findings of particular sensitivity are made (e.g. proximity to historic or aesthetically significant structures, views, and/or community features). Should the Director determine that WCFs are located in areas of high visibility, they shall (where possible) be designed (e.g., camouflages, placed underground, depressed, or located behind earth berms) to minimize their profile at the request of the Director. (b) The camouflage design may include the use of Alternative Tower Structures should the Director determine that such design meets the intent of this Code and the community is better served thereby. (c) All WCFs, shall be constructed out of or finished with non-reflective materials (visible exterior surfaces only).

2. Hazardous Materials. No hazardous materials shall be permitted in association with WCFs, except those necessary for the operations of the WCF and only in accordance with all applicable laws governing such materials.

3. Collocation. WCFs shall be designed and constructed to permit the facility to accommodate WCFs from at least two (2) wireless service providers on the same WCF unless the City approves an alternative design to the extent the reasonably feasible based upon construction, engineering and design standards. No WCF owner or operator shall unreasonably exclude a telecommunications competitor from using the same facility or location. Upon request by the Director, the owner or operator shall provide evidence explaining why collocation is not possible at a particular facility or site.

4. Lighting. WCFs shall not be artificially lighted, unless required by the FAA or other applicable governmental authority, or the WCF is mounted on a light pole or other similar structure primarily used for lighting purposes. If lighting is required, the City may review the available lighting alternatives and approve the design that would cause the least disturbance to the surrounding views. Lighting shall be shielded or directed to the greatest extent possible so as to minimize the amount of glare and light falling onto nearby properties, particularly residences.

5. Noise. Noise generated on the site must not exceed the levels permitted in this Code, except that a WCF owner or operator shall be permitted to exceed Code noise standards for a reasonable period of time during repairs, not to exceed two hours without prior authorization from the City.

6. Adjacent to Single Family Residential Uses.

WCFs shall be sited in a manner that evaluates the proximity of the facility to Single Family residential structures. When placed near Single Family Residential property, the WCF shall be placed adjacent to the common side yard property line between adjoining residential properties, such that the WCF minimized visual impacts equitably among adjacent properties. In the case of a corner lot, the WCF may be placed adjacent to the common side yard property line between adjoining residential properties, or on the corner formed by two intersecting streets. If these requirements are not reasonably feasible from a construction, engineering or design perspective, the applicant may submit a written statement to the Director requesting the WCF be exempt from these requirements.

7. Additional design requirements shall be applicable to the various types of WCFs as specified below: (a) Towers Structures and Base Stations. i. The color of Towers and Base Stations shall be compatible with the colors of other towers or

adjacent to the common side yard property line between adjoining residential properties, or on the corner formed by two intersecting streets. If these requirements are not reasonably feasible from a construction, engineering or design perspective, the applicant may submit a written statement to the Director requesting the WCF be exempt from these requirements.

7. Additional design requirements shall be applicable to the various types of WCFs as specified below: (a) Towers Structures and Base Stations. i. The color of Towers and Base Stations shall be compatible with the colors of other towers or poles in the right-of-way in the immediate vicinity. For example, if the Towers or Base Stations are near traffic signals at an intersection, the color of new Towers or Base Stations should be the same, or similar, color of the traffic signals. If Towers or Base Stations are near, or are replacing, existing light poles, the color of the Towers or Base Stations should be the same, or similar, color of the existing light poles. ii. Towers and Base Stations should use existing land forms, vegetation, and structures to aid in screening the facility from view or blending in with the surrounding built and natural environment; iii. Towers and Base Stations shall be architecturally compatible with the surrounding area; iv. Height and size of the Towers and Base Stations should be minimized as much as possible, and in no event shall any tower be higher than 40 feet; v. Towers and Base Stations shall be compatible with the surrounding topography, tree coverage and foliage; and vi. Towers and Base Stations shall include design characteristics that have the effect of reducing or eliminating visual obtrusiveness. (b) Alternative Tower Structures. In addition to the design requirements applicable to Towers, above, Alternative Tower Structures shall be designed and constructed to look like a facility or utility pole typically found in the Public Right-ofWay and shall: i. With respect to a Pole-mounted Small Cell Wireless Facility, be located on, or within, an existing utility pole serving another utility; ii. Be camouflaged/concealed consistent with other existing natural or manmade features near the location where the Alternative Tower Structure will be located; iii. With respect to a Pole-mounted Small Cell Wireless Facility, be located on, or within, a new utility pole where other utility distribution lines are aerial, if there are no reasonable alternatives, and the Applicant is authorized to construct the new utility poles; iv. To the extent reasonably feasible, be consistent with the size and shape of the pole-mounted equipment installed by communications companies on utility poles near the Alternative Tower Structure; v. Be sized to minimize the negative aesthetic impacts to the Public Right-of-Way and adjacent property; vi. Be designed such that Antenna installations on traffic signal standards are placed in a manner so that the size, appearance, and function of the signal will not be materially altered, as determined by the City in its sole discretion; vii. Be designed such that any ground mounted equipment shall be located in a manner necessary to address both public safety and aesthetic concerns in the reasonable discretion of the Director, and may, where appropriate and reasonably feasible based upon technical, construction and engineering requirements, require a flushto-grade underground equipment vault; viii. Not alter vehicular circulation or parking within the Public Right-of-Way or impede vehicular, bicycle, or pedestrian access or visibility along the Public Right-of-Way. The Alternative Tower Structure must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and every other local, state, and federal law and regulations. No Alternative Tower Structure may be located or maintained in a manner that causes unreasonable interference. Unreasonable interference means any use of the Public Right-of-Way that disrupts or interferes with its use by the City, the general public, or other person authorized to use or be present upon the Public Right-of-Way, when there exists an alternative that would result in less disruption or interference. Unreasonable interference includes any use of the Public Right-of-Way that disrupts vehicular or pedestrian traffic, any interference with public utilities, and any other activity that will present a hazard to public health, safety, or welfare; ix. The Alternative Tower Structure shall not be more than ten feet higher (as measured from the ground to the top of the pole) than any existing utility or traffic signal within 500 feet of the pole or structure; x. Any such Alternative Tower Structure shall in no case be higher than 40 feet, unless such pole is already existing at a greater height. xi. Any Transmission Equipment placed on an existing Monopole or Alternate Tower Structure shall not extend more than 5 feet above such pole. In the alternative, Small Cells attached to an electric distribution Alternative Tower Structure may be located at the minimum height necessary to provide the safety clearance required by the electric utility if applicable: xii. No new freestanding WCF shall be within 600 feet of another freestanding WCF in the public right-of-way. These separation requirements do not apply to attachments made to existing Alternative Tower Structures. The Director may exempt an Applicant from these requirements if (i) the applicant demonstrates through technical network documentation that the minimum separation requirement cannot be satisfied for technical reasons, or (ii) the Director determines, when considering the surrounding topography; the nature of adjacent uses and nearby properties; and, the height of existing structures in the vicinity, that placement of a WCF at a distance less than 600 feet from another WCF will meet the intent of reducing visibility and visual clutter of WCFs to the extent possible. xiii. Collocations are strongly encouraged and the number of poles within the Public Right-ofWay should be limited as much as possible; and xiv. Equipment enclosures shall be located out of view as much as possible. (d) Accessory Equipment and Transmission Equipment. Accessory Equipment and Transmission Equipment for all WCFs shall meet the following requirements: i. All Transmission Equipment and Accessory Equipment shall be grouped as closely as technically possible; iv. Transmission Equipment and Accessory
