Lakewood Visual Preference Survey tackles West Colfax City seeks input on making important corridor safer for pedestrians BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Lakewood West Colfax Safety Project, a municipal effort “to create

a safer and more comfortable experience for pedestrians, transit users and motorists on iconic West Colfax Avenue in Lakewood between Sheridan and Wadsworth boulevards”, is looking for resident input in choosing design elements for the corridor. Lakewood residents can log on to Lakewoodtogether.org to take a Visual Preference survey. The survey asks you to describe the existing character of the cor-

ridor in the area from Teller Street to Harlan Street, and from Harlan to Sheridan Boulevard. It also asks for your top two choices on design of elements like lighting, medians, bus stop amenities, pedestrian buffers and where you can safely cross the street. Those who take the survey are provided several options for each category and are given visual references (photos) of streetscapes from

other cities to help inform their choices. Aside from pure aesthetics, the survey lists the practical reasons for the different categories of changes proposed. For example, it says lighting, a top priority from a previous survey about what improvements residents would like to see, creates numerous benefits to various users. SEE SURVEY, P2

Cox wielded words as watchdog of government His weeklies chronicled news in the ’90s in Jefferson County BY MIKKEL KELLY MKELLY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Robert E. Cox — known as Bob Cox — former publisher of the Jefferson Sentinel Newspapers, died June 25 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Retired Aurora Sentinel Publisher Harrison Cochran described him as ahead of his times. And Mr. Cox proved to be ahead of his passing by leaving an epitaph on his Facebook: I have traveled on, and I leave with the knowledge that I will remember each and every one of you as I make my exit. Goodbye to all. Live happy and respectful lives. — Bob Emmett Cox 7/31/38-6/25/21 Mr. Cox grew up in Denver and graduated from East High School. He experienced other parts of the country before returning to Denver, where he finished his career in 1999. He retired in Santa Fe, where he rebuilt an adobe home on the Chama River. He briefly attended at the University of Miami and then studied political sci-

During his career, he was editor of the Colorado Daily, a correspondent and regional executive at United Press International, politics reporter at the San Diego Union, managing editor at the Colorado Business Magazine, politics writer at the Rocky Mountain News, editor at Weekly Newspaper in Glenwood Springs, and editor of the Green Mountain Gazette. He served as press secretary for Tim Wirth’s first U. S. House of Representatives campaign in 1974. In 1991, he and his wife, Sid O’Connell, purchased the Jefferson County weeklies and formed a partner-

ship with other Denver suburban newspapers. The weeklies covered the western suburbs of Denver including Lakewood, Wheat Ridge and Arvada. The Coxes led their news and advertising teams to win many Colorado Press Association awards and sold the papers in 1999. Mr. Cox kept a sharp eye on the doings of elected officials, which he expressed in his editorials. He coached his reporters to take the time to dig for information. His editorials pulled no punches but were peppered with wit and humor. Former staffers appreciated how he made time for some fun in the high-intensity work of

visibility and creates an identity to the corridor,” the survey says. One of the most practical changes being proposed is what to do about Pedestrian Refuge Treatment, which is a fancy thing to call crossing the street. It was also a priority in the previous survey. The goal would be allowing people more options to cross Colfax between traffic signals. “Mid-block crossings, or pedestrian crossings between two signals, is an option that will be considered in the new design for the street. These mainly prioritize the pedestrian, but can also

news reporting. Former Managing Editor Joe Ross said, “Bob was a great person and journalism leader who was always in front of the curve. In the 1990s, he started a daily news fax and then an online product before anyone else in the region. He taught me and others so much about quality journalism.” Cochran said, “Bob Cox was a member of the ‘surly malcontents’ with the Colorado Press Association making his own brand of ‘good trouble.’ Somehow Bob managed to combine the cynicism of a grizzled UPI wire reporter with the entrepreneurial fire of small business ownership and the ethics of a lone cowboy.” His “Facebook friends were accustomed to a tirade or quip on any topic at any time but most often poking fun at pompous politicians,” Cochran added. Former Colorado Community Media Publisher Jerry Healey said, “I found Bob to be very creative and often ahead of his time. But, most of all, I enjoyed his sense of humor, and his contagious laugh.” Mr. Cox’s son, Kennedy Cox, said he has lost his best friend. The father and son enjoyed engaging in musical endeavors — especially guitar — and traveling on

Therefore, the city considers safety improvements, particularly for pedestrians, to be

the road to have semi-philosophical conversations and spend time together. In 2017, the dean of the College of Media, Communications and Journalism, in an official ceremony, recognized Bob’s life’s accomplishments and retroactively awarded Bob’s actual bachelor’s degree in journalism having been a couple of credits short in 1968. Mr. Cox collected favorite quotes on his Facebook that include: “You never know what worse luck your bad luck has saved you from,” by Cormac McCarthy, and “To be Irish is to know, in the end, the world will break your heart,” by Daniel Patrick Moynihan. He is survived by his son, Kennedy Cox of Denver; “best friend” and former wife, Sidnie O’Connell of Lakewood; sister Lynn Murphy, Seattle, Washington; niece Amie Servais of Sammamish, Washington; nephew Baxter Baldwin of Scottsdale, Arizona; and several great nieces and nephews.

urgently needed. However, they say due to budgetary concerns, some proposed improvements may need to be incorporated in future phases. Funding for the project comes from the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) which manages Colfax as a state highway. Lakewood was awarded a $10 million grant to Lakewood to make improvements through the state’s Safer Main Streets Initiative, designed to address safety and accessibility along urban corridors.

Every Industry Is Facing Disruption of Some Kind. How About Real Estate?

I just finished reading a white paper by the founder of Dotloop (part of Zillow Group) with the catchy title, “The End of the Traditional Real Estate Brokerage.” The premise of the document is that unless a brokerage adopts that company’s “end-to-end collaborative platform,” it is destined to fail. Hmmm…. Is my brokerage, Golden Real Estate, about to face extinction? Basically, the argument is that mobile and digital technology is disrupting every industry and is also disrupting real estate. “Disrupting,” however, implies winners and losers. I prefer to say that technology is revolutionizing real estate (as indeed every industry), but I see no end to Golden Real Estate as a small, perhaps “boutique,” brokerage. In my two decades as a Realtor (i.e., a member of the National Association of Realtors, not merely a licensed real estate professional), I have seen major transformation of the technologies, tools and software made available to brokers. When I first got my license and joined the West Office of Coldwell Banker

Residential Brokerage in Lakewood, we wrote our contracts on 3-ply NCR forms created for each of the many documents required in a real estate transaction. We used typewriters to complete them, or pressed firm with ballpoint pens. Nowadays, virtually every agent uses online contracts. In our market, CTM eContracts is dominant in providing these contracts, and the integration of documents by agents on both sides of every transaction is impressive and… revolutionary. We love it! Occasionally I will received a contract from an out-of-area agent, as I did just last week on one of my listings, that is not on CTM and uses a third-party e-signature program for executing each document. (CTM has e-signature capability built into it, and I love it.) Showing service technology has also evolved beautifully. The near-universal vendor in our market is ShowingTime, and it’s great how they have simplified the process of setting multiple showings, with well-timed route planning and management of feedback requests.

This is my regular update on the real estate bidding wars. This week I chose to analyze the closings that occurred last Monday, June 28th, to see how the bidding wars have evolved over the past few weeks. As before, the source for this monthly analysis is REcolorado.com, the Denver MLS. As I did in previous months, I limited my analysis to sales within a 15-mile radius of downtown Denver. I limited my search to homes, condos and townhouses that were on the MLS at least one day and not more than 6 days before going under contract. Those are the homes with bidding wars. I divided the results into listings which sold for up to $500,000 and those that sold for more. On June 28th there were 55 closings up to $500,000, compared to 40 closings on June 10th. The median home sold for 5.4% over its asking price, compared to 6.3% on June 10th. The highest ratio this time was 20.8% for a townhome in Littleton compared to 19.6% on June 10th for a condo in Golden. Six listings sold for the asking price, and four sold for less than listing price, compared to

none on June 10th. There were 53 homes that closed on June 28th for more than $500,000, compared to 37 homes on June 10th. The median home in that group sold for 8.7% over its listing price, compared to 7.7% on June 10th. Only four sold for the listing price, and 3 sold for less than the listing price. The highest overbid in this group was 32% for a mid-century modern home in Arvada, compared to 20.9% on June 10th. To have a statistically significant number of closings over $1 million, I analyzed the 108 such closings over a longer period — June 14-28. The median closing for those high-end homes was 6.6% over listing price, compared to 6.1% from June 1-13. Twelve homes sold for the listing price and 6 homes sold for less than the listing price. The highest overbid was for a 1997 home in Golden’s Village at Mountain Ridge, which was listed at $929,000 and sold in 4 days for $1,240,000, 33.4% over listing price. Three other million-dollarplus homes sold on June 28th for more than 30% over their listing price.

An Update on the Ongoing Bidding Wars

REcolorado, the Denver MLS, is introducing a replacement showing service called BrokerBay, which will have some further enhancements (and be included in our MLS fees), but it will have to be spectacular to be better than ShowingTime. The MLS itself has been radically improved in the quarter century since it

became web-based, and, as with their showing service proposal, continues to do the heavy lifting for us brokerages so that we have only the task of learning new ways of operating. Despite these changes, I don’t think the in-person model of working with buyers and sellers is up for displacement, merely rapid and ongoing improvement.

A Professional Inspection Is Money Well Spent You can’t tell a book by its cover, and you can’t tell a home’s condition by how well it looks when you fall in love with it and go under contract. That’s why you should never waive your right to inspect the home and submit an “Inspection Objection.” With all the bidding wars going on, it’s increasingly common for buyers to waive both inspection and appraisal in order to get the home they are bidding on. There are three inspection deadlines. You might feel the need when competing with other buyers to waive inspection objection and inspection resolution, but you should never waive inspection termination. That way, you still have the right to hire a professional inspector, and you may just find enough hidden defects to exercise your right to terminate the contract.

That’s what happened with a buyer I am working with. The house showed all the signs of being well built and well maintained, but the inspection revealed several shocking structural flaws, electrical issues and plumbing problems. We clearly had to terminate — unless the seller was willing to amend the contract to allow for inspection objection and inspection resolution, which she did. We then submitted an extensive list of repairs, which the seller rejected. This was unusual, however, since the seller and her agent were now aware of serious problems which they will be required by law to disclose to the next buyer.

5-Bedroom Sun Valley Estates Ranch Home Sun Valley Estates is a beautiful and quiet Lakewood subdivision of 1960s homes, including brick ranches like this one at 9566 W. Kentucky Drive. This home has been owned by the seller for 31 years, during which time it has been well maintained and improved. You'll love the family room addition with its fireplace and included artwork. The eat-in kitchen has a unique wall-mounted table and four included chairs. Kentucky Drive is on a snow route and gets priority plowing in the winter. The house is well insulated with 16 inches of blown-in insulation in the attic. All main-level windows are newer low-E vinyl windows. It is convenient to the Federal Center light rail station.

New subdivision gets the green light Wheat Ridge approves new major subdivision BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A subdivision plan approved by the Wheat Ridge council June 28 will split a lot at 41st Avenue and Wadsworth in two, creating a new space for expected development. The Wheat Ridge Planning Commission unanimously recommended the approval of a request to subdivide a plot of land on the

east side of Wadsworth Boulevard at 41st Avenue on June 17. City staff also recommended approval. City Council unanimously approved the subdivision request on June 28. Tucked away between Safeway and the post office / Big Lots properties, the site is home to a single-story office building. The lot will retain the mixed-use commercial zoning and permitted uses it currently has. The subdivision designation will essentially divide the lot in two. The plan is for the owner of the property to keep the side with the office building while creating a second lot for future development. A site plan

for the second lot is under review by city staff. The subdivision would also dedicate the eastern 52 feet of the site as right-of-way for a newly-dedicated Vance Street (which is already a paid access easement). An existing easement will be upgraded as part of the second lot. There will also be utility and drainage easements and updates to existing access easements for fire department access to the new lot. New development on the lot will be required to meet current development standards. The proposed construction will be for multi-family

housing units. The newly created Vance Street will be upgraded with sidewalks, curb and gutter and parallel parking. Because Wheat Ridge is not a full-service city, applicants for the subdivision sent the application to outside agencies, including fire, water and sanitation. According to the applicants, those agencies raised no concerns about the proposed development plan. Construction documents that include plans for drainage, grading and paving are under review by the city’s engineering division. and a site plan is under review by the planning division.

Canyon Point residents decry impact on area Home rented by family sold to developers after they agreed to buy it BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

For the last five years, Heather and Jeff Klenske have loved living with their two kids in a small rental house on the corner of 5th and Illinois streets in Golden’s Canyon Point neighborhood. So, when their property manager came to them in May offering a

chance to buy the home, they leapt at the opportunity. “We wanted to keep our family here,” said Heather of their neighborhood. “It’s right by Mitchell (Elementary) and then my oldest starts kindergarten at Mitchell next year … And these neighbors are like our family and best friends.” According to Heather, the property owner, Tom Bridges, came to their house on May 5 and offered them a price to buy it. The Klenskes agreed and a few days later were pre-approved. Over the next week, the Klenskes would exchange several emails with the property manager, who repeat-

edly said how happy she and Bridges were to have the Klenskes to stay in the house. Until suddenly, they weren’t. On May 13, the property manager sent the Klenskes another email. In it, she explained was so sorry to tell them Bridges had accepted an unexpected offer from a buyer with a plan to build two duplexes on the property. The buyer offered to pay cash without an inspection or appraisal. “We were obviously devastated,” said Heather, who would now be able to continue renting only until Aug. 31. The Golden Transcript reached out to Bridges for comment but did

not recieve a response by press time. The family has since found a place in South Golden and say they are excited about their impending move, even as they will miss Canyon Point — and would’ve preferred to stay there. Neighbors worried But while this saga came to an OK end for the Klenskes, many of their neighbors in Canyon Point say they worry their troubles with developers like the one that purchased the home the Klenskes lived in seem to be just beginning.

Two of the Klenskes’ immediate neighbors told Colorado Community Media they have received calls from that investor, Kyle Doney, offering to buy their properties. At least one other said they had also been called by someone offering to buy their property, but said they did not know if that person was Doney. The Golden Transcript reached out to Doney for comment but had not recieved a response at press time. Kristina Kearney, the Klenskes next-door neighbor on 5th Street, is among those who received a call from Doney. She’s lived in the neighborhood for decades and said she has no plans to sell. However, she worries the construction of duplexes next door will mean her home, which is less than 1,000 square feet, will be boxed in by much larger — and newer — structures. “I love where I live, I just hope they don’t build something that blocks my views,” she said. “Because it just seems like the city is approving everything and there is no community anymore.” Jacqueline Simon, who lives next to Kearney and has been in the neighborhood since 2006, said she is also concerned about the ways her neighborhood is densifying. “It’s OK to build a new house but to do the high-density homes in a nice quaint little neighborhood, it’s not family anymore,” Simon said. “It’s making us urban.” For her, one of the worst aspects

of the changes developers are bringing is the loss of the yards and the greenery they provide. “Heather and Jeff’s place has a nice big back yard and a front yard and it just allows the whole neighborhood to breathe,” she said. More or less urban? However, the forced departure of the Klenskes also underscores another trend: the loss of the families and children that have long been an essential feature of the neighborhood. Simon thinks it’s time for the city’s residents to have a conversation about what Golden should be and how to achieve it — before it’s too late. “I didn’t think we had to be so urban right here,” she said. “For me, it was never ‘go to Golden, the urban town with super high-density homes where you can’t even see North or South Table Mountain or even Lookout Mountain anymore, you just see someone’s window looking at you.’” However, if residents were to ask

city leaders, they would likely say they are hearing the complaints from residents of Canyon Point and other densifying neighborhoods around Golden and are trying to have that conversation. The city is in the midst of a rewrite of its zoning code that city staff initiated in response to resident concerns that the city’s current zoning code has allowed too many large structures that do not fit into the fabric of older core neighborhoods such as Canyon Point. Although the rewrite process is ongoing and feedback is still being sought from residents, the latest drafts of the code propose a system that would use the scale of surrounding buildings as the basis for determining the form of the structures that would be allowed to be built on a given site. The city is also considering a 180day moratorium on the acceptance and processing of applications for building permits in R-2 and R-3 zoning districts. R-2a nd R-3 zoning districts are zoned for multifamily housing (the Canyon Point neighborhood is part of an R-2 zoning district). The intention of the moratorium is to allow the city to complete the code rewrite process and adopt the new code before allowing for permitting to resume. Several of the Canyon Point residents who spoke to the Transcript expressed at least some support for the proposed zoning code and, especially, the moratorium. However, they also think more action is needed, with several residents expressing support for a policy that

would give renters the first right to buy their property at fair market rate if a landlord wants to sell it. But even if such a policy is a pipe dream — and a legally dubious one at that — residents say the city must do more to help current tenants stay in the area and limit the ability of developers to outbid residents like them. “When these developers come in with cash like that they prevent people like us who are with one income with two kids and who make this community the community that it is from staying here because they’ve got cash,” said Heather. “When we look at houses we are hearing about people getting 10 to 20 offers and places going for 20% over and people are just throwing down cash.”

White Fence demolition begins End of the road for iconic restaurant and attraction BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After 45 years in operation and three years sitting idle, White Fence Farm is meeting its fate as heavy equipment begins demolition and clearing of the seven-acre site to make way for development of apartments. The restaurant, known for its family-style fried chicken dinners and farm-like setting — including a petting zoo popular with young and old alike — was sold in 2014. The most recent owners, Tom Piercy and Craig Caldwell, reportedly operated the restaurant at a loss for the last year of its existence. They closed the doors for good in December 2018. The property was purchased by Crescent Communities for a reported $4.7 million. They intend to build a community of 202 apartment residences that will become available in 2023. According to the Crescent Communities website, construction of the luxury community will be handled by CSI Construction with KTGY acting as lead architect. Landscape architecture is being performed by Land Design and interior design by CID Design Group.

The Arvada community came together July 1 for a ‘Day of Togetherness, hosted by The Olde Town Arvada Business Improvement District. The event featured live music and an “Arvada Strong” edition of ‘Thursday Night Bites.’ All proceeds from the event went to the families of Officer Gordon Beesley and Johnny Hurley, victims of the June 21 shooting in Olde Town, and the Arvada Heals Fund

BEESLEY FROM PAGE 1

Beesley landed “like a cat,” picked up his bike and finished the test “with a smile,” according to Dave Snelling, Beesley’s longtime colleague at the APD, where Beesley worked for 19 years. “He’s just one of those amazing humans,” said Snelling. “You literally could not make him angry. Every time you saw him, your day just got greater. The thing I love about Gordon the most — he was 6’2”, 6’3” — he referred to me as “Little Davey.’”And he was the only one I couldn’t get mad at for it.” Beesley was killed on June 21 in Olde Town Arvada by a gunman who left behind writings proclaiming his hatred of Arvada police. Beesley’s tenure with the APD

at the Jefferson County Center for Mental Health. The event featured live music performances from locals acts Chris Daniels, Hazel Miller, Drienka and Brian Mikulich. Olde Town businesses, including Steuben’s, Urban Beets, Breadwinners and Flying Pig Burger Co., participated in the ‘Thursday Night Bites’ portion of the event, assembling stalls and booths serving food and drinks for attendees. “Shocked is an understatement for what so many of us are feeling

right now,” said Jean Gordon, director of the Arvada Visitors Center. “Our business community was just getting its footing back after the ups and downs of dealing with the pandemic for the last year. We want them to feel supported as we come together to heal from the events of June 21. “We need each other right now,” Gordon continued. “This event will be a big first step in that healing process for all of us.” Other events set for this summer will further benefit the victims of

the June 21 shooting. The Bluegrass Lounge will host a benefit with live music and a silent auction at both of their locations (Olde Town and Candelas) benefitting the Hurley family and the Colorado Fallen Heroes fund Thursday, July 15, and Friday, July 23. Eddie Columbo, a friend of Johnny Hurley, typically puts on an annual Bluegrass Crawfish Boil. This year’s event will be Sunday, Aug. 1. Proceeds will go to the family of Johnny Hurley.

— where he served as a school resource officer (SRO) at Oberon Middle School, Lincoln Academy and Excel Academy Charter School while working patrol in the summers — made him a visibly beloved figure in the community. “You’ll have cops that grow their image around the badge,” said Snelling. “I think the badge grew an image around Gordon. And Gordon humanized the badge. He had just as many friends outside the business as he did inside, but (being a police officer) wasn’t his identity when the uniform came off. “He just liked the work,” Snelling continued. “Really, whenever he put that uniform on, you can’t help but see that there was a man behind that badge, not just a cop. That made him a fantastic cop.” Outside of work, Beesley was known as a caring husband and father, avid mountain biker and

talented drummer in local bands such as Brethren Fast, which draped an American flag adorned with the band’s name on the memorial outside of Arvada City Hall, and the Railbenders. Patti Danford, the vice principal at Oberon Middle School, where Beesley most recently worked as an SRO, went to the Dark Horse in Boulder to see Beesley play with one of his bands. “He was great,” said Danford. “It was so fun to see him in that environment. I took my husband and told him, ‘That’s Officer Beesley,’ and he said, ‘Wait, that’s the police officer you work with?’ And I said, ‘Yes, that’s Gordon.’ I’m really glad I was able to go see him do that; something he really loved.” The Railbenders said they were not in a place to discuss Beesley after his passing but called him “the nicest guy you could ever know” in an email to the Arvada Press. “Gordon was a founding member of our band and played on our debut record,” said Railbenders lead singer Jim Dalton via email. “He was a tremendous talent and performer. More importantly, he was a great friend. He was a gentle giant. He was the nicest guy you could ever know. “The truth is,” Dalton continued, “there are not enough words in the English language to adequately describe the amazing human being Gordon was. He was truly a light in our city and now there is a heavy darkness felt in his absence.” Danford added that while Beesley’s passions shone through in

all aspects of his life, he remained committed to his role as an SRO at Oberon. “He’s multi-dimensional and he had lots of interest outside of school,” Danford said. “When he was at school, he was super professional, super focused. He was there to do a job but had some deep passions. From our conversations, it was abundantly clear that his biggest priorities were his wife and two kids. He was, in my mind, first and foremost a family man.” Heidi Cuppari, a family friend of the Beesleys, whose children attend the same school, said she was devastated when she heard the news Beesley had been shot. “My heart just broke in a million pieces,” said Cuppari, “because I knew how kind he was. It was particularly heart-wrenching for me because I know the boys and I knew him and I knew how caring and what an epic, amazing human being he was. And his spirit will always be here.” Cuppari started a GoFundMe that has been authorized by Beesley’s widow to raise funds for their family shortly after Beesley’s passing. The APD has confirmed that the suspect in Beesley’s death, Ronald Troyke, left a note stating in part, “My goal today is to kill Arvada PD officers.” “The scariest part of this entire thing,” Snelling said, “is that we now know the narrative that the suspect specifically targeted, ambushed and murdered. And it was one of the nicest people that anyone could ever know.”

Friends remember Arvada hero for his voice, heart BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Brent Kaufman will remember his friend Johnny Hurley as a leader and a man of character who “stepped up and saw where help was needed,” whether he was helping to feed and clothe the homeless or letting people going through tough times stay in his Golden home. Following the shooting incident that left three dead in Olde Town Arvada on June 21, Arvada Police Chief Link Strate has repeatedly noted that those qualities were on full display as gunfire erupted in the shopping area. Strate described Hurley as a “true hero who likely disrupted what could’ve been a greater loss of life.” On June 25, Strate confirmed that Hurley shot Ronald Troyke after Troyke shot and killed Arvada police officer Gordon Beesley. Hurley, holding Troyke’s gun, was then shot and killed by an Arvada police officer. “Given who he was, I am not surprised he was the first one who stepped up in a time of need out in the world,” said Kaufman, who had known Hurley for the last seven or eight years. “He was somebody who was not afraid to use his voice and show his heart.” That sentiment was repeatedly echoed by the many friends of the Goldenite who offered their memories of Hurley. Ian King said he worked with Hurley at All Love Catering from 2018

to 2020, when the caterer closed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. He will remember Hurley as “one of the most solid and generous people with an incredible work ethic.” “I always enjoyed my shifts with him and the times we got to hang and chat after work,” King wrote in a message to Colorado Community Media. “He truly inspired me to work hard and be better. But it would be wrong to describe Hurley as perfect, Kaufman said. “Johnny just as much as all of us had his journey and he was bettering his life,” he said. “And recently he was the happiest I have seen him in a long time.” That journey had led Hurley to, among so many other things, a life of passionate advocacy for gun rights and other causes of individual rights. Another friend, Rachel Sunshine, called Hurley “a well-known anarchist who believed the world would be better without government” who was active in spreading the message of liberty. That strong and passionate nature is readily apparent on Hurley’s Facebook page, where he had recently posted about his opposition to pandemic lockdowns and distrust of the COVID-19 vaccine. Just a day before his death, he had questioned whether he had Facebook friends who were “thinking of reporting his radicalism.” “If you are going to mention Johnny you’ve got to mention he was an activist,” said Kaufman. “That was

State lifts rules for masks, quarantines, outbreaks in schools BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In yet another major lifting of state-imposed coronavirus restrictions, Colorado released an updated public health order that removes mask requirements for schools and repeals the mandate for school protocols regarding outbreaks and other instances of COVID-19 cases. The updated order — which took effect July 1 and expires on Aug. 1 unless extended — whittles Colorado’s state-imposed virus restrictions down to a point where they leave public settings in most Coloradans’ daily lives unaffected. Here’s a look at what changed with the updated public health order. Mask requirements Previously, the list of settings where masks were required for unvaccinated individuals included — among other places — preschool through grade 12 schools and child care centers and services, including camps. The requirement also applied to staff of Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles offices. The updated order removes those rules and adds a requirement that unvaccinated staff use medicalgrade masks. Masks are now required for unvaccinated or not fully vaccinated patients, residents and visitors — and medical-grade masks are required for unvaccinated or not fully vaccinated staff — in the following set-

tings that serve vulnerable or at-risk populations: • Homeless shelters; • Prisons and jails; and • Emergency medical and other health care settings. All of the settings identified in the list above are “strongly encouraged to require all of their unvaccinated and not fully vaccinated staff to participate in COVID-19 testing,” the order’s text says. That includes daily rapid testing every day that they work in the facility or setting, or once-weekly polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, testing. Exceptions to the mask requirements include Coloradans 11 years of age or younger and those who “cannot medically tolerate” a face covering, the order says. See a list of other exceptions on page 3 in the order’s text at tinyurl. com/UpdatedPublicHealthOrder. School case response rules lifted The updated order also repeals the requirement for schools to follow the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment guidance on outbreaks and other instances of COVID-19 cases. Previously, the order said: “Schools and child care shall work with their local public health agencies as COVID-19 cases occur, and shall follow the CDPHE guidance for Cases and Outbreaks in Schools and Child Care.” The guidance is listed at covid19.colorado.gov/cases-andoutbreaks-child-care-schools.

The lifting of that requirement means people who have close contact with a person with a positive COVID-19 test or symptoms generally no longer need to quarantine. “Schools no longer need to adhere to the broader quarantine and isolation requirements in previous (public health orders),” said a statement from the Colorado State Joint Information Center, which takes questions for the state public-health department. “However, state and local public health officials have statutory authority to institute quarantine and isolation as needed to stop the spread of disease. These officials may continue to require isolation of ill individuals and quarantine for individuals who are suspected to have COVID-19,” the statement said. School districts and local public health agencies could make their own decisions as to whether to impose outbreak, quarantine or mask requirements that go beyond what the state mandates. Local limits generally lifted The state’s color-coded COVID-19 dial was the set of restrictions counties had to follow based on the local spread of the virus. The system affected capacity at restaurants, other businesses, indoor and outdoor events, and other settings. Colorado originally implemented the dial last Sept. 15. Colorado allowed the dial to expire as expected in mid-April, but health agencies in the Denver metro area extended the dial system locally as a rise in virus cases and the continued spread of COVID-19 variants kept health officials worried. Since mid-May, several metro counties are now operating in what they call “level clear,” generally with no local restrictions — and that’s likely to continue unless things take a turn for the worse. A month and a half after Colorado let its dial expire, the state also lifted capacity restrictions on large indoor gatherings, a limit that had remained after the state dial’s end. Colorado’s Public Health Order 20-20 remains in effect and includes requirements for nursing facilities,

assisted living residences, group homes and other care facilities. ‘Snapback restrictions’ still possible A “snapback,” or return, to more state-imposed coronavirus restrictions could occur if hospitalizations rise high enough, according to a news release from the state publichealth department. In counties whose resident hospitalizations threaten to exceed 85% of hospital or hospital system capacity, the state public-health department may require implementing additional restrictions, the public health order’s text says. Enforcement Colorado’s COVID-19 public health orders are generally the kind that rely on voluntary compliance. “Local authorities are encouraged to determine the best course of action to encourage maximum compliance,” the text of the order says. But failure to comply with the order could result in penalties, including jail time and fines, according to the order’s text.

Public transportation Nothing in Colorado’s order changes or repeals the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s order requiring the wearing of masks on public transportation, according to Colorado’s order. The CDC’s requirements are located at cdc.gov/quarantine/masks/masktravel-guidance.html. Passengers on public conveyances — meaning airplanes, trains, subways, buses, taxis and rideshares — traveling into, within or out of the United States, as well as conveyance operators, meaning crew, drivers, conductors and other workers, regardless of their vaccination status, are required to wear a mask over their nose and mouth, according to the CDC’s website. All people, including workers and members of the public, regardless of their vaccination status, are required to wear a mask in indoor areas of transportation hubs, meaning airports, bus or ferry terminals, and train or subway stations, in the U.S., according to the CDC’s website.

Challenges still loom in Jeffco budget despite stimulus funds

he county budget is a yearround endeavor, but as we move into the summer months, our work ramps up as we develop and prepare the proposed budget for next year. As many of our residents know, Jefferson County has been operating in a tight financial environment over the last several years. Federal stimulus dollars — the CARES Act funds from last year and the American Rescue Plan funds this year — will allow for some breathing room for the county to provide much-needed COVID relief for our community, but continuing budget challenges are still present. At the same time, we are developing a countywide strategic plan that will help to inform the budget process. A strategic plan sets priorities, focuses energy and resources, and ensures we are working toward common goals for the betterment of the county. This plan also keeps the county accountable for measurable

learn and conduct business. But as our population grows, so does demand for roads, public safety, public health and other essential county services. Taxpayer dollars allow the county to deliver vital services, but the limited growth of revenue fails to keep pace with the steadily increasing cost of doing business, creating continuing financial challenges. The amount of property tax revenue the county is allowed to collect to pay for county services is limited by the Taxpayer Bill of Rights, or TABOR. TABOR restricts revenue growth for counties using a formula based on two factors: new construction and the Consumer Price Index. But the county’s formula does not account for population growth, unlike the state’s TABOR formula. The result: County tax revenues have not grown as fast as the demand or the increased cost for county services. For more information, see the Financial Realities section on our

outcomes and results. We will track progress, so we can adapt our direction in response to everchanging environments. This work is especially timely because we are adjusting to new COVID norms and expectations. We are working to become even more efficient and effective. As we work on the 2022 budget, we will use our strategic plan objectives to guide the use of funds. Additionally, we will have federal stimulus dollars to provide services and funds to those impacted by COVID, and we will leverage this assistance to strengthen Jeffco’s economy so businesses and our workforce thrive.

Taking the fun out of everything

he other day, my wife and I were out having lunch at the Yardhouse after a little shopping expedition, and there, in the background, as HITTING is usually the case HOME at a sports bar, were about 12 different televisions tuned to sports. Especially fun for me, since one of those sporting events was the U.S. Open. Not so much for my wife. Michael Alcorn But also, on one of the TVs in the corner, was this event that featured what looked a glorified ping-pong table court thing. And, on this court, seemingly close enough that they could hit each other with a good swing of their arms, were four people, each holding “rackets” that resemble overgrown ping-pong paddles (without the rubber) to hit what appears to be a sort of whiffle ball. This is pickleball. Pickleball is, from what I understand, a really fun activity for people who don’t have the wherewithal or desire to be running around a tennis court. I have several friends who play, and there’s a big set of courts up at the Apex Center North Annex. I even once met the guy who describes himself

as the “evangelist of pickleball,“ who claimed responsibility for the growth of the game around Arvada. I think it’s really a clever adaptation of a couple of different sports into one game. But, to be clear, I think the intent of pickleball was simply to give people who no longer can or want to play tennis an opportunity to still play a competitive game that they can have fun with their friends. That is to say, it’s a great “old person” game. And, yes, I definitely count myself among the “old person” set. I would love to still play tennis, but, running around the court with my son a couple years ago one day convinced me that my best days of tennis were behind me. And that’s massively stretching the context of the term “best days.” So, I’m watching pickleball on television. And there’s a play-by-play announcer, and a color commentator. There’s even the obligatory pretty girl “courtside reporter.” And the players are mostly twenty-somethings who appear to be in plenty good shape, but who barely move their feet during rather lengthy volleys. And you know what I think to myself? I think, “Do we have to suck the fun out of absolutely everything these days? Back in the day, my brothers and I

and my buddies would play a game we called “Home Run,” which is like baseball for two people. In its most “advanced” form, we used a nerf baseball (because you can make a curve ball break about four feet with it), and the idea was, if you hit it over the fence that’s a home run, with various shorter hits counting as different values. It was fun, and turned out to be a really useful training device for making contact. We never dreamed of making it a profession. It was just fun — a way to pass the time. Like playing “Around the World” or “Horse” during basketball season. Is this the dark side of Americans’ hyper-competitiveness? That we have lost the ability to just do things for fun and leave it alone? I’ve ranted before about how absurd it is that kids don’t know how to F play “pick up games” anymore—is this just the next iteration of that phenomenon? By the way, more power to these professional pickleball players—if some network is willing to sponsor it and get you on television, then Godspeed. And, for what it’s worth, it definitely requires crazy good reaction times and hand-eye coordination. I suppose I would just feel bad if the people who the game is intended

The Start and Spread of Wildfire in the Wildland Urban Interface

he wildland-urban interface (WUI), defined as the area where houses are in or near wildland vegetation, is where wildfires GUEST pose the greatest risk to people due COLUMN to the proximity of Daniel Hatlestad flammable vegetation. Wildfires frequently burn houses in the WUI and are most difficult to fight there. Furthermore, the WUI is where people often ignite wildfires, and the vast majority of fires are human-caused. While fires are an integral part of many ecosystems as a whole, humans have changed wildfire environments throughout the Rocky Mountains, and climate change will increase fire frequency in the future. Though a natural part of the Rocky Mountains, fire is one of the most feared, fought and controversial components of our physical environment. The landscapes of the Rocky Mountains have been shaped by frequent wildfires for thousands of years. The role of fire in these ecosystems is evident from studies of past vegetation, fire scars on trees, the even-aged character of most forests and records of explorers. Until the beginning of the 1900s, wildfire burned through the forests of the Rocky Mountain West at fairly regular intervals and was a natural component of fire-dependent ecosystems. Today, as more people build homes in the WUI, they become part of the growing risk for wildfire destruction. Wildfire is viewed as an undesirable natural phenomenon that can destroy homes and property and place lives at risk. But wildfire is a natural part of Rocky Mountain West ecosystems. Residents living in the WUI should learn to view wildfire the same way residents in other parts of the country view tornadoes, floods and

hurricanes — as natural phenomena that can devastate property and life — and prepare accordingly.

How do wildfires start? The conditions do not have to be too crazy for a wildfire to start. Wildfires can start with something as random and unpredictable as a lightning strike hitting a tree. Even for a lightning strike, the conditions need to be right for the spark to really catch hold. A fire needs an igniter, some fuel and strong wind. Besides a random strike of lightning, forest fires can also be ignited by: • Powerlines: When a powerline is hit by some high winds or a car crashing into it, the lines break. As the lines are broken, there is usually some sort of large spark, enough to ignite a flame that can spread to the rest of the forest. • Arson: Unfortunately, sometimes a forest fire can break out because someone purposely started it. Arson has been identified as the cause of many wildfires in Colorado. • Campfires: If a campfire is not put out correctly, or if it was made in a spot where it is illegal to start a campfire, the embers can be blown from the pit and onto a pile of dead vegetation. • Cigarettes: Cigarettes starting wildfires are common along roads as burning cigarettes are discarded. • Other human-related causes: While we use the term wildfire, a lot of these fires are not started by random natural events, but the introduction of humans and our technologies into a forest setting. (Editor’s Note: This time of year, we certainly have to mention fireworks in this category.) Wildfires are driven by three basic components: weather, fuel and topography. Together, these three items affect the likelihood of fire starting, how fast it moves, its power and difficulty to control.

Weather Dry, hot and windy weather increases the likelihood of a major wildfire. These conditions make ignition easier, help fuels burn more rapidly and increase fire intensity. High windspeeds, in particular, can transform a small, easily controlled fire into a catastrophic event. The East Troublesome Fire in Grand County in 2020 is an example of the impact of winds on the spread of fire. The East Troublesome Fire grew 100,000 acres in 24 hours. High winds, erratic winds and changing wind/humidity conditions are of great concern for firefighters. Fuel Fuel is required for any fire to burn. In a wildfire, fuels are usually living vegetation (trees, shrubs, brush, grass) and dead plant materials. Homes, when in the path of wildfire, can become fuel. The quantity, size, moisture content, arrangement and other fuel characteristics influence the ease of ignition, rate of fire spread, length of flames and other fire behavior.

Topography Of all types of topographic features, steepness of slope is among the most influential on fire behavior. The steeper the slope, the faster a fire will spread. Other important factors are: • Aspect –south and southwest slopes usually have more fires • Chimneys –steep, narrow drainage The Colorado wildfires of 2020, destroying hundreds of homes and killing several people, were driven by high winds. Wind will blow and spread the embers onto new piles of kindling until the whole forest is aflame. In addition to the wind, wildfires will burn better going uphill. The heat from the flames will warm the trees and other fuels, making them more readily available to burn as the fire steadily approaches. Once wildfires have wind to push them along and they are exposed to the right topography, the glowing red inferno will burn everything in its path from beautiful, centuries-old forests to our neighborhoods in the foothills.

Rounding up the cycling trails

Cyclists pass each other on the Clear Creek Trail.

If you’re new to the area, or just want to branch out, here’s a must-try list of some of the best rides around BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

is the season for twowheeled adventure. Lucy Hanna said she’s just visiting but couldn’t wait to hop on a bike — a loaner from her niece Claire — and check out the Clear Creek Trail.

“You have some beautiful trails out here,” she said. “This is the second time I’ve checked out a new ride since I’ve been here.” She said it’s nothing like her rides back home in Louisiana. “You can’t even really think about it (cycling) this time of year. The humidity is just … I don’t know … oppressive,” she said.

Those of us lucky enough to call the metro area home have miles of trails to choose from. Throw in some of the lowest relative humidity in the nation and summer can be a downright pleasant time to go riding. That said, here’s a list of some of the most popular places to get back on the bike and enjoy the

fleeting summer months while you can. Bear Creek Bike Trail You can pick up the trail near US 285 and River Point Parkway. There are parking lots near the South Platte, where the Mary SEE BIKE TRAILS, P15

Celebrating a Denver story at Miners Alley COMING ATTRACTIONS

here was never any doubt that Miners Alley Playhouse in Golden was going to make returning to live theater a big deal. Over the last 18 months plus, the theater has invested in giving audiences the best experience possible via video. But nothing beats the real thing. “I’ve been looking forward to that everynight experience of being in the theater and feeling the back-and-forth energy of art and storytelling,” said Len Matheo, Miners Alley’s artistic and executive director. “I knew that when we came back, I wanted us to be back with our best work. And this play is what live theater is all about.” The play he’s talking about is “The Treasurer,” written by Denver playwright Max Posner, and directed by critic and local director John Moore. The show runs from Friday, July 16 through Saturday, Aug. 7 at the theater, 1224 Washington Ave. in Golden.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, but there is also a video version for those who prefer staying home. Pricing is on a “Pay it Forward” model, which means audiences can pay nothing or up to $100, and as such, pay for others’ tickets. “It’s a Denver play written by a Denver playwright, so when I saw the world premiere in New York City, I made a commitment to Max that I’d ensure that someone did it in Denver,” Moore said. “When I took it to Len, I was so happy he was able to do it. It’s such a meaty and meaningful play.” Featuring Augustus “Augie” Truhn, Billie McBride, Jasmine Jackson and Peter Trinh, the show is described by Moore as a “bike ride to hell,” that centers on the strained relationship between a mother and son. Told with propulsive force and featuring characters in different states, the show is a wildly different animal than many audiences will

be familiar with. “It’s a serious play, but there’s a lot of humor in it. Audiences will be laughing out loud and have these moments of recognition,” Matheo said. “We’re coming out of a hard time, and I think a lot of people will need some catharsis.” For Moore, the show is not only an opportunity to work with a dream cast, but also to work with a script that he describes as “a banquet of words.” He said it’s been joyful but also intimidating to bring the show to life, and hopes that audiences find in it something that really connects with them. “I’ve always been an advocate for the power of live theater to change lives,” he said. “We learned through the pandemic that there’s no replacement for actually being there.

Carter Greenway Trail and Platte River Trail meet. The trail, running alongside the Bear Creek corridor pretty closely, offers stunning views of the western foothills as you make your way through Bear Valley, Bear Creek Lake Park and ultimately into Morrison. According to reviews on TrailLink.com, the Bear Creek Trail is a relatively flat, easy ride that can be enjoyed by cyclists of all abilities. On the west side of the trail, you can find parking along Morrison Road or one of the parking lots in downtown Morrison. High Line Canal Trail Starting in Aurora and ending some 71 miles away in Roxborough Park, the High Line Canal Trail runs through the metro area’s southern suburbs. Along the way, you’ll go through Goldsmith Gulch, deKoevend Park and Horseshoe Park just to name a few, before the trail ends near Platte Canyon Reservoir. From the Waterton Canyon Trailhead parking lot, it’s just a short distance to the High Line Canal Trailhead. Starting from points east, consult a trail map and follow municipal parking regulations. Clear Creek Trail From Thornton to Golden, this 20-mile trail has a bit of everything. A slight incline that tops out at just over 5,800 feet adds to the challenge, but the scenery is said by TrailLink reviewers, to be worth the effort. Included in the ride are views of North and South Table Mountain, thrown in for free. You’ll cut through a good chunk of Wheat Ridge and make your way between Prospect, Tabor and West lakes as you head toward I-70. Historic Golden vibes abound as you cross Ford Street on your way to the trail’s end near Clear Creek

Canyon Road, just east of Indian Gulch. Temporary construction closures at the Clear Creek Parking Lot in Golden may make it necessary to start your ride on the westside, nearer to one of the Golden municipal lots or parking spaces a bit east of the trailhead. Cherry Creek Trail On the southeast side of town, the Cherry Creek Trail gives cyclists the opportunity to ride from Cherry Creek Reservoir to Downtown Denver. At around 20-miles-long, the trail takes riders through some of the coolest urban areas in the city. Starting your ride near Confluence Park in Lodo, you’ll make your way along Cherry Creek as it ambles toward the southeastern program from Jackie Robinson’s color-barrier-breaking Major League debut in 1947 and “the Holy Grail of baseball cards” — a mint-condition 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle card that will be displayed for the first three days only. The exhibit is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Get more information at Rockies.com/HallofLegends. K Contemporary celebrates the ‘Soft Monuments’ Denver-based artist Kevin Sloan is featured in a new exhibit at K Contemporary, 1412 Wazee St. in Denver, entitled “Soft Monuments.” The exhibition begins Saturday, July 10 with an opening event from 5 to 9 p.m. and runs through Saturday, Aug. 14. The exhibit features 14 paintings and four ceramic sculptures, marking the first time Sloan is exhibiting sculptural work, according to provided information. Sloan will also be creating “Soil,” an installation of small watercolors, ink and charcoal drawings in the gallery’s

suburbs, cutting through Glendale and Virginia Village before ending at Cherry Creek Reservoir. For the super adventurous, the trail continues all the way to the small, rural, Franktown — another 20 miles south. There are several rest stops along the route, with restrooms for those in need. And due to the proximity to the city center, it’s not unheard of to see inline skaters, folks on scooters or even e-bikes moving pretty fast, so be aware. Veteran Denver cyclist Michael Lewis said he’s ridden most of the trails the city has to offer. He said he’s partial to the South Platte River Trail himself, but said for people just starting out, or those looking for a nice ride with a lot less distance involved, a lap or two project space.

For the love of skateboarding Evergreen’s Jaxon Statzell designs parks, even for the Olympics BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

They say if you do what you love, you never work a day in your life. That is true for Jaxon Statzell, a 2004 Evergreen High School graduate who has designed more than 100 skate parks all over the world in his 12-year career. Better yet, he was the lead designer on the skate park for the inaugural skateboarding events at the summer Olympics in Toyko. “It’s such a cool thing to be on that grand stage,” said Jaxon, 35. “It’s really fun to be at the table for skateboarding at the Olympics. It’s getting some of the legitimacy that it deserves.” The skate park — with both park and street courses — is in the Ariake Urban Sports Park near the Olympic Village in Tokyo. Forty male and 40 female “skaters” — the term for someone who skateboards — are expected to compete July 23-Aug. 8, and plans call for the skate park to become a public venue after the Olympic games. “In the Olympics, you have to design something that elevates anything that was done previously,” Jaxon explained. “The Olympic course has to be such that any

that he has found the perfect career path. “I’m just proud of him in every respect,” Riley said. “I do slip (what he does for a living) into conversations because I’m so proud of him. I’m tickled with his happiness and that level of success.” Starting on a skateboard Jaxon learned to skateboard when he was about 10. Tom Statzell said Jaxon spent that entire summer learning to pop the board in the air, forsaking other sports for his new passion. “On vacations, every single thing revolved around getting him to a skate park,” Riley said. After graduation, Jaxon studied architecture at the University of Colorado at Boulder. “In college, skateboarding was my hobby, and architecture was something I found I could do as a potential career,” he said. “I didn’t know an industry existed for skate parks.”

While interning at a Denver architecture firm, he checked out a new skate park in Parker and was impressed with how progressive it was, not the typical gray, concrete, fenced enclosure. “Whoever was doing this was trying to evolve these spaces …,” he said, “so I decided to look up who was responsible for it.” Enter a small firm in the San Diego area now called California Skateparks, and his career in the skate park-designing world began. The first skate park he designed was outside Tel Aviv, Israel, and since then, he has designed skate parks for cities large and small, for the X Games, Street League Skateboarding and more. “The nice thing about skate parks,” Jaxon said, “is we do something totally different every time that is site specific.

Mental health apps are confusing glut Only a tiny handful have been vetted, out of tens of thousands BY JENNY GOLD KAISER HEALTH NEWS

In the eyes of the tech industry, mental health treatment is an area ripe for disruption. In any given year, 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experience a form of mental illness, according to federal estimates. And research indicates only about half of them receive treatment in a system that is understaffed and ill distributed to meet demand. For tech startups looking to cash in on unmet need, that translates into more than 50 million potential customers. Venture capital firms invested more than $2.4 billion in digital behavioral health apps in 2020 — more than twice the amount invested in 2019 — touting support or treatment for issues from burnout and depression to ADHD and bipolar disorder. At least seven mental health app companies are valued at more than $1 billion. But even as industry hype mounts, researchers and companies are scrambling to prove these apps actually work. Of the estimated 20,000 mental health apps available for download on personal computers and smartphones, just five have

been formally vetted and approved by the Food and Drug Administration. “Development has really outpaced the science,” said Stephen Schueller, a clinical psychologist at the University of California-Irvine. Type “depression” or “anxiety” into an app store, and you’ll be met with a dizzying list of results. There are thousands of “wellness” apps like Headspace that counsel people on breathing exercises and other techniques to help them feel more mindful. Apps such as Woebot and TalkLife profess to help manage conditions like anxiety and postpartum depression using games, mood journaling or text exchanges with peers or automated bots. Some apps are meant to be used alongside in-person therapy, and others on their own. Several of the most popular, like Talkspace, BetterHelp and Ginger, promise access to treatment with a licensed therapist over text message, phone or video. Others, including Brightside and Cerebral, connect users to psychiatrists who can prescribe antidepressants. Most products make their money by charging consumers a monthly or annual fee, with the option to purchase extras like video sessions with a therapist. Others contract directly with employers or insurers. And, yes, a small portion of these apps have promising research to back them up. Several studies, for example, have found that cognitive

behavioral therapy, a mainstay of treatment for depression and anxiety that seeks to help patients change negative thought patterns, is as effective when delivered using web-based platforms as when done in person by a licensed professional. And the pandemic has bolstered claims that patients are willing to trade in-person visits for the ease of online connection. Upbeat view “Digital mental health can be viewed as a way to extend the mental resources that we have,” said David Mohr, who directs the Center for Behavioral Intervention Technologies at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. The challenge for consumers is separating the apps that might help from those that offer little more than distraction — or could actually do harm. Some companies offering mental health treatment had recently been doing something totally different — for example, an online seller of erectile dysfunction and hair loss treatments has started offering psychiatric evaluations and prescribing and selling antidepressants. Tech companies are by nature forprofit and, in the rush to compete in a saturated market, many are selling a product with an appealing user interface but little evidence of effectiveness. A 2020 analysis by Australian researchers reviewing nearly 300 apps for anxiety and depression found just 6% of the companies that boasted an evidencebased framework in the app store description for their products had published any evidence. Nor do star ratings and download totals offer much context: An April study from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School found little correlation between app store metrics and treatment quality. “No one is competing based on privacy, safety or evidence. They’re competing on aesthetics, in part, on page ranking, marketing on brand awareness,” said Dr. John Torous, director of the digital psychiatry division at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and one of the authors of the April study. “There’s an implicit assumption that the app is better than nothing. But what if it

isn’t better than nothing?” Seeing differences Dr. David Mou, a psychiatrist at Massachusetts General Hospital who is chief medical officer at Cerebral, said he agrees that everything new in health care must be done deliberately and conservatively to avoid patient harm. But he said some people in the mental health field are painting all companies with the same brush and failing to differentiate those that are datadriven from those trying to grow at any cost. “They look at us and say we’re all VC-backed bros in a basement trying to redesign health care. And that’s not true. It may have been true 10 years ago, but it isn’t true today,” said Mou. The long-term winners, he said, will be those that are “evidence-based and measure quality like crazy.” Mou said Cerebral is already able to demonstrate some advantages. While many top hospital systems might have a months-long wait for care, he said, someone in crisis can reach a Cerebral provider almost immediately. “Within minutes you are able to talk with someone with one of our instant live visits. That in itself is a huge win.” Even critics of the tech explosion are quick to acknowledge that the current brick-and-mortar system of mental health is dated and inadequate. Improvement difficult Yet even as advocates have made strides in acceptance, truly improving the lives of people with mental illness has proven stubbornly difficult. Over the past several decades — while the U.S. successfully lowered death rates for cancer, heart disease and other major illnesses — deaths by suicide and drug overdose have continued to climb. Federal law theoretically requires insurance companies to cover brain illness as they would any other illness. But finding affordable care remains a challenge, largely because of a shortage of licensed mental health professionals and ongoing inequities in insurance coverage.

for the first time, or someone is coming back for the thousandth time. You want it to be safe for the beginners with stepping stones for progression, so they can get better. For the person there for the thousandth time, you still want ways for them to be stimulated and challenged and keep working on their craft.” Tom Statzell added regarding Jaxon’s career: “I think (the company loves) the world stage and doing big events, but I think Jaxon gets a bigger kick working on the public skate parks because it brings younger people into the sport.” A talent for skateboarding, details There are two skateboarding disciplines: street skateboarding, which has stairs, rails, benches and more, and park skateboarding, which is like an empty swimming pool with different features that Jaxon said looked like “the surface of the moon,” and it’s skated free form. Both are part of the Olympics. Jaxon excels at his profession because of his attention to detail. “He will hammer out details until everyone else in the room wants to go home,” Tom Statzell said. “He is fortunate that he (works) for a firm that is as obsessive as he is.” While creativity is important, “the nuts and bolts is that it’s a lot of grinding it out — making sure it can be built to the right specifications.

And, for some, the opportunity to talk about their mental health challenges anonymously makes online treatment an attractive alternative. Still, many of the experts who welcome the potential for innovation in mental health treatment acknowledge that consumers are getting little guidance in how to choose a reputable option. “Wellness” apps that promote a healthy lifestyle or apps that help people manage their disease without providing specific

Creating a skate park — especially for something as elite as the Olympics — means going into what Jaxon called “video game mode” where designers put themselves in the minds of the top athletes to create features, treatment suggestions can avoid FDA regulation. But even those that offer patient-specific diagnoses and treatment recommendations that would seem to fall squarely under the FDA’s authority do not seem to garner the agency’s attention, according to industry experts. In response to questions from KHN about its approach to regulating mental health apps, the FDA sent a brief statement. “As circumstances change and new needs arise, FDA is ready to meet and address these challenges, especially in the areas of mental health.” This story is from Kaiser Health News, a nonprofit news service covering health issues.

Doing what he loves Skateboarding is not just his job — Jaxon still gets to a skate park several times a week, and he was able to take a few runs on both Olympic courses, though he admits he doesn’t try death-defying tricks. “I am pretty risk averse these days,” he said. “I can skate within my means.” Sometimes Jaxon can`t believe he’s working in the field that he loves. “I think the 15-, 16-year-old me would high-5 me now and be like, “YES,” Jaxon said. Skateboarding is seen by some as not requiring discipline, but he said there’s a lot of life lessons. “It’s about getting back up after you fall and following the learning curve that is really steep,” he said, noting that having parents who were “open minded enough to allow me to be myself” was helpful. “I feel very grateful and lucky to be doing what I’m doing.”

Wheat Ridge alum headed to Olympics From Stober Elementary to Tokyo Games, hometown girl makes good BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Annie Kunz, Wheat Ridge High School alumni and two-sport athlete at Texas A&M University, is headed to Tokyo to compete in the heptathlon after scoring a personalbest 6,703 points at a June 26 Olympic qualifying event in Eugene, Oregon. Kunz set personal Kunz records in six of the seven events in which she competed and broke the Olympic trials record in shot put with a throw of 15.73 meters. That record was previously held by Olympic champion Jackie Joyner-Kersee, who rose to fame by winning two gold medals in the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, South Korea. In the final event of her qualifying meet, Kunz finished with a strong time of 2 minutes, 15.24 seconds in the 800 meters on a day when the thermometer reached a scorching 108 degrees. The temperature at the start of the race was still 96 degrees. According to the Texas Aggies website, Kunz’s previous career-best heptathlon score was 6,153 points in 2019. In an interview with TexAgs. com the morning after qualifying, a still-overwhelmed Kunz said she was still emotional thinking of the accomplishment.

“I have goosebumps just hearing you say ‘Olympian’ when you introduced me,” she said. “To see it all come to reality and live out this dream that I’ve literally had since I could walk, is a dream come true.” She said when she crossed the finish line in the final event and saw her points score up on the results board, it was something she’d never thought would be attainable. “That’s when the emotion just took over, and I just thank God for the experience,” she said. Kunz also said she was grateful for the postponement (due to COVID) of the Olympics because of the extra

year of valuable track and field training time. Soccer had been her primary sport in high school and college, and she said she’d always felt like she was behind her competitors in terms of training. With 14 people — family and friends — supporting her at the Oregon trials, Kunz said she didn’t have to look far for people with whom to share her excitement. “I looked up (into the stands) and I see my family, and that’s when I just lost it again. I just could not be more happy than to celebrate with them,” she said. Kunz leaves for Tokyo July 26 and

competes in the Heptathlon Aug. 4 and 5. She said she won’t be able to attend the opening ceremony due to heightened COVID protocols. “But with such a crazy year and so much talk about cancellation, I’m just grateful that we get to compete,” she said. “And honestly it might be the best thing for me. I can just think of it as a business trip and I’ll be able to focus a little bit more.” Kunz, who graduated from Wheat Ridge High School in 2011, was a 2016 graduate of Texas A&M. Her father, Terry, played for the Oakland Raiders and was part of their Super Bowl-winning team in 1976.

Golden Gloves champ with Wheat Ridge connection Journalist, athlete and author’s life story becomes award winning book BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Before 2004’s Million Dollar Baby, Alicia Doyle was knocking them out in the ring. Now, the former Wheat Ridge girl and Everitt Middle School alum is knocking out book critics with her autobiography, “Fighting Chance,” and gearing up for the next chapter in an inspiring life. Doyle moved to Wheat Ridge from California with her family in 1971. A self-described “latch-key kid” and child of a rough divorce, Doyle says her fondest memories of her time in Jeffco are of how safe she felt it was ... and the snow. “I miss the four seasons in Colorado,” she says. “There was a lake near my house that would freeze

over in the wintertime, and we would ice skate on the lake.” Her family eventually moved back to California, landing in Chatsworth, a Los Angeles suburb in the San Fernando Valley. “When we left Colorado, I left behind everything I knew,” Doyle says. “It was very difficult because I was really close to my father, and I had to leave him.” She said a gnarly custody battle between her parents and having to leave her father, made things rough — and being the only mixed-race student in her all-white class didn’t make things any easier. “I was also that fat kid in school, so, that made things even harder,” she says. “With that, and the divorce, there just wasn’t a lot of comfort in my home life. But I look back on all of those hard times — I’m strong now because of those things that I had to survive.” After graduating from Chatsworth High School, Doyle found herself studying journalism at Los Angeles Pierce College. She eventually

landed a coveted gig with the Los Angeles Times. Other reporting jobs in San Diego and L.A. followed. Next up was a gig at the Ventura County Star where an assignment to write a story about a boxing gym changed the young writer’s life. El Niño rains had been bad that year. The gym, Kid Gloves Boxing, had been destroyed by floodwater.

Before the rains, it had served at-risk youth, many facing serious problems — parents in jail or under house arrest — some of the kids themselves, under house arrest. Some were in gangs. Doyle said the gym was the only safe environment many of the kids knew. Not a fan of boxing, she said she reluctantly accepted the assignment with all sorts of preconceived notions about Robert Ortiz, the owner of the gym. “I just assumed he’d be a jerk — a womanizer. I was wrong about all of it,” she said. “The minute I met this man and saw the size of his heart, I knew there was more to the story.” Ortiz told her “The one thing I always tell these kids is never give up. So, now I’ve got to practice what I preach.” He had taken out two mortgages on his home to build the gym, and it had all been destroyed. The story hit home with Doyle, and she spent two SEE GLOVES, P21

months reporting on Ortiz’s efforts to rebuild. “I had a chance to talk to these children about how boxing had changed their lives. It had healed them — boxing — this thing I had thought was so violent and dark,” she said. It made her wonder if it could help her as well. Because no one knew it at the time, but Doyle had been in an abusive relationship with a boyfriend. She said when she broke things off with him, the abuse became physical. “He punched me in the face with a closed fist more than once,” she said. The episode had left her “ashamed, embarrassed, angry that she had allowed herself to be treated that way.” The next day she went to the boxing gym because she said she was so angry that all she wanted to do was hit something. She said after hitting a heavy bag for an hour, she felt better. “In that hour, all of that pain and rage and shame that I felt, was gone,” she said. “I went back the next day, and the next, and the next. And before I knew it, I was taking two to three aerobic boxing classes every day, five days a week.” Doyle said eventually the aerobic

classes weren’t enough, and she wanted to learn some real boxing skills. She watched the trainers and pros at the gym and copied their moves. Before long, she started getting attention from the coaches. “So, this coach approaches me, his name is Stan Ward — he asked me if I’d ever considered competing and informed me that at the time, there were only about 400 women in America boxing,” she said. She agreed to give it a shot and soon, she was in the ring fighting for real. She was 28 years old at the time — an advanced age for anyone to enter competitive fighting. But she didn’t let it sway her. She stayed in the game for only two years, but in that short amount of time, she won two Golden Gloves championship titles. “Those were hard fights,” Doyle said. “Those were wars.” Her only professional fight ended in a loss, by decision. It was called the “California female fight of the year,” by local press. In the wake of the brawl, Hollywood came calling, with Paramount Studios asking her to co-write a script treatment. Doyle declined. She said she wasn’t ready for that part of her life to become public at the time. She hadn’t yet come to terms with the abusive relationship that had pushed her into the ring. In an attempt to do just that, she began writing “Fighting Chance.” It took her two decades to complete the book, which was published in 2020.

Olympics will feature debut of climbing Sport popular in Colorado could see effect of worldwide publicity BY JOHN MARSHALL ASSOCIATED PRESS

Climbing’s standing as a niche sport has always been a part of its appeal. A rock wall can be a place of solitude or of camaraderie with a small group of fellow climbers. There are no crowds, just the peacefulness of the outdoors and the task of trying to find the best route to the top. The climbing world could be in for a change after the Tokyo Olympics. Climbing is an Olympic sport for the first time, and the spotlight will introduce a massive audience to what can be a lonely pursuit. “For the most part, people were psyched,” American Olympic climber Nathaniel Coleman said. “They knew the sport would get more attention, a lot more inflow of money and kind of be recognized as the high-quality sport that it is.” The Olympics will be hosted July 23 through Aug. 8. The inaugural climbing competition will include three disciplines: lead, bouldering and speed. Lead is similar to what climbers encounter when scaling rock faces outdoors. Climbers have six minutes to climb a wall of about 15 meters with a variety of holds. Whoever climbs highest wins. Ties are broken

by time. In Bouldering, climbers have four minutes to complete each of four “problems” on 4.5-meter walls. The problems include overhangs, wedges and holds barely big enough to hold a fingertip. Some problems involve a “dyno” — jumping in a dynamic movement to the next hold — and occasionally going upside down is the best way up. Climbers get as many attempts as they want within the time limit and receive credit for completing a boulder by securing the top hold with both hands in a controlled manner. There are also zone holds midway up the wall where climbers can earn partial credit. Speed climbing is a much more specialized discipline, the climbers racing head to head up a 15-meter wall with standardized holds. The inclusion of the speed discipline did not sit well within the climbing community. The Tokyo Games will have two medalists — one for each gender — and the International Olympic Committee wanted to show a range of climbing skills, so it included speed in the overall competition. Lead climbing and bouldering are more in line with what climbers face outdoors. Speed, not so much. As one climber put it, adding speed is like asking a distance runner to compete in a sprint event. Speed will be a separate medal event at the 2024 Paris Games. “Speed climbing is very, very different from the other two disciplines,” said Meg Coyne, national

team manager and assistant coach at USA Climbing. “First of all, it’s rehearsed. Second, all of the mannerisms, habits and techniques are effectively reversed. For athletes to do well on speed, they need to train for something that’s totally outside the habits they have for the other disciplines.” Scoring is determined by multiplying each climber’s placement in the three disciplines. Lowest score wins. If a climber is first in lead, second in bouldering and 10th in speed, their score would be 20 (1X2X10=20). Winning a discipline will put a climber in good position to contend for a medal. Adam Ondra has been called the world’s best climber and has tackled some of the most difficult outdoor routes around the globe. The wiry 28-year-old Czech known for screaming on the wall is not as strong in speed climbing, but is a threat to win both lead and bouldering. Like Ondra, Janja Garnbret has completed outdoor routes most

climbers wouldn’t even consider attempting. The 22-year-old from Slovenia has won six world championships and is the only climber to go through an undefeated World Cup season, winning six events in 2019. She excels in lead and bouldering. The United States joined France and host Japan as the only countries to qualify a full team of four climbers. Nathaniel Coleman is sort of the de facto captain of the U.S. team, a laid-back climber who leads by example. The 24-year-old from Salt Lake City is considered one of the best American boulderers, but has evolved into a super all-around climber. Collin Duffy will be one of the youngest athletes at the Tokyo Olympics. The 17-year-old Coloradan from Broomfield is an adept problem solver — he loves puzzles — and qualified for the Olympics as a sophomore in high school. Duffy grew up climbing with Brooke Raboutou and now the two friends will be going to Tokyo together. The 20-year-old from Boulder comes from a climbing family and has become adept at all three disciplines. Kyra Condie had 10 vertebrae fused together when she was 13 to correct scoliosis and has become one of the best climbers in the world. The 25-year-old from Shoreview, Minnesota, does not have the same mobility as other climbers, but makes up for it with problem solving.

A request for genetic tests shall not prejudice the requesting party in matters concerning allocation of parental responsibilities pursuant to 14-10-124(1.5), C.R.S. If genetic tests are not obtained prior to a legal establishment of paternity and submitted into evidence prior to the entry of permanent orders allocating parental responsibilities,, the genetic tests may not be allowed into evidence at a later date. Automatic Temporary Injunctions: all parties are enjoined from molesting or disturbing the peace of any other party; all parties are restrained from removing the minor children from the state without the consent of all parties or an Order of the Court modifying the injunction; and all parties are restrained, without at least 14 days advance notification and the written consent of all other parties or an Order of the Court, from cancelling, modifying, terminating, or allowing to lapse for nonpayment of premiums, any policy of health insurance or life insurance that provides coverage to the minor children as a beneficiary of a policy.
