Je co students show gradual improvement

Je erson County focuses on emergency preparedness for older adults

BY JO DAVIS JDAVIS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Preparing for an emergency is a bit di erent for independent older adults.

Essential actions in emergency planning like packing an emergency kit and deciding to evacuate or shelter in place come with special considerations.

Je co students had better CMAS scores this year, but scores remained lower than in 2019, before the pandemic.

Je co students are inching closer to pre-pandemic pro ciency rates in math and reading, according to the latest results of the Colorado Measures of Academic Success.

Just over half of Je co’s third through eighth graders who took the test met or exceeded grade-level expectations on the English Language

Arts portion, beating the state average of 43.7%. At 38.7%, math pro ciency rates also exceeded the state average of 32.9% and showed a 1.3% improvement over 2022.

To help Je erson County’s older residents, the county commissioners have proclaimed September as Emergency Preparedness Month. e theme is “Preparing Older Adults.”

“ is year’s theme is ‘Preparing for Older Adults,’ and pre-planning is the best way to improve community resiliency from disaster,” the proclamation reads.

is one agency that provides resources, information and more to help the community prepare this month.

“At JCPH, a large part of our work is making sure we are preparing our entire community for emergency events,” said Anjanette Hawkins, Emergency Preparedness and Response Coordinator at JCPH. “Older adults face even greater risks and challenges when it comes to preparing for emergencies, and as pillars of our community, we owe it to them to champion their wellbeing.”

One of the sites that Je co Public Health recommends is Ready.gov. e site is an o cial website of the US Department of Homeland Security. It focuses on emergency preparedness and has a special page for older adults. “As an older adult, you may have speci c needs after a disaster,” Ready.gov reads. “Use the information on this page to assess your needs and take simple, low-cost steps that help

you get better prepared.” is information urges families to add things to the emergency prep kit that would help an inde-

pendent older adult after a disaster. is includes:

• Copies of medical insurance information;

• Extra medical supplies, especially batteries, glasses, oxygen, etc;

• Hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes for medical use; and

• A contact list of medical transport services and caregivers, including backup services in case there are issues reaching the home.

Another resource, the older adult-targeted magazine AARP, o ers an Operation Emergency Prepare guide. It’s interactive and allows families and friends of older adults a way to create an emergency preparedness plan. ere are worksheets, checklists and other tools to help capture what an older adult would need after a disaster. ere are also actionable steps to get everyone moving toward implementing and practicing the plan.

FEMA and Ready.gov o er a pamphlet “Prepare for Emergencies Now: Information for Older Americans” that’s full of tips, ideas and considerations while creating the emergency plan. ey urge older adults to plan by:

• Adding a whistle to the emergency preparedness kit as an extra measure for signaling for help;

• Stockpiling a week of medica-

tions and medical supplies, or as many as the pharmacist will allow;

• Keeping tools to create a barrier to the dangerous air if the older adult cannot evacuate. ese items include tape, plastic sheets (for painting and covering furniture), masks and more; and

• Securing and/or moving any items that could move or fall into the walkways. ese can impede an emergency evacuation for older adults with disabilities or illnesses that impair mobility. ere are many other special considerations that must be made when thinking about securing older adults in the family and community.

“As an older adult, you may have speci c needs after a disaster,” read the Je co Public Health announcement on National Emergency Preparedness Month. “ is is especially true for older adults who live independently, have low income, have disabilities, have chronic health issues or live in rural areas.”

To help families, Je co Public Health is hosting an emergency preparedness education and walkin clinic event from 8 a.m. to noon Sept. 20. Check the JCPH website for more information and a location when it’s determined. at information will also be included in the Je co Transcript newsletter. Sign up is free, do so today.

Heavy, fast and prolonged rainfall in September 2013 caused damaging flooding across Colorado, including in Je erson County in Coal Creek Canyon. This is why Je co Public Health recommends adding alternative evacuation routes to the emergency preparedness plan.

I Found Just One Marshall Fire Home Being Rebuilt With Fire Resistance in Mind

Following the December 2021 Marshall fire, I wrote several columns about how the homes lost in that fire could have been more fire resistant, and in one I reported on the homes that didn’t burn while all the homes around them did. Find those columns at www.JimSmithColumns.com

Last Saturday I visited 181 Mohawk Circle in Superior, which is being rebuilt with “EcoBlox,” a non-combustible masonry material. The home is in the Sagamore subdivision, which was completely destroyed in the Marshall Fire. Today that subdivision is abuzz with construction activity on virtually every lot, but all of the homes I saw are being rebuilt as wood-frame homes, except for this one.

The reason I happened to visit the home was that it was one of eight Boulder area homes on the Colorado Green Building Guild’s annual Green Homes Tour. This was one of just two homes on the tour that are still under construction, and it made by far the biggest impression on me.

Lisa Morey, founder of Colorado Earth LLC, was on-site to answer questions about the blocks which she makes and sells for home construction. After graduating with an engineering degree she got another degree in architectural design. She started building with adobe bricks while living and working in New Zealand in the early 2000s. There she gained experience from building nearly 50 homes, and from that work published a book, “Adobe Homes for All Climates,” in 2010.

Lisa’s mission is to scale the natural building industry by offering an affordable wall system made from locally obtained material. Through her company, she designs, manufactures, and builds EcoBlox, a structural block that is “fireproof, soundproof, bugproof, bulletproof, breathable, biodegradable, and mold resistant.”

The blocks are made using “overburden” material (earth) from a nearby

quarry and are not fired. The walls made from EcoBlox are finished with a limebased plaster that can last indefinitely. EcoBlox have lower embodied energy because, unlike regular bricks, they are not fired. The blocks have an average compressible strength of 1,200 psi. Two holes in the blocks are for rebar running the height of the walls. The holes are then filled with concrete. The mortar between the blocks is made from the same material as the blocks themselves. The exterior is then covered with lime plaster; the interior is left as exposed blocks with a thin lime wash.

While the exterior walls are made of the EcoBlox, interior walls are typically framed in the usual manner using 2x4s and 2x6s, although they can be constructed of narrower EcoBlox. The exterior walls are composed of two rows of the blocks as shown in this picture from Colorado Earth’s website. Between them electrical wiring and other utilities can be run before the gap is filled with perlite insulation. The blocks measure 6”x12” and vary in height from 2” to 5”. Typical height is 3.5”.

Earthen construction is nothing new, of course. We’re all familiar with adobe, and perhaps you’ve heard of “rammed earth.” The genius of these EcoBlox is that they provide a construction material that can be purchased by the pallet and used by masons to build homes.

The Great Wall of China was built of rammed earth in 5000 B.C. According to the company’s slide presentation, 30 to 50 percent of the world’s population currently lives in earth-based dwellings, including in over 100 UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

The Superior home is not Lisa’s first

Denver Ranch Back on Market with Refinished Floors

This charming brick ranch at 2670 Kearney Street in desirable Park Hill is only minutes from City Park, the Denver Zoo & the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. The home is on a double lot with extensive flower & vegetable gardens. The bathroom was completely remodeled in 2020 and the kitchen was renovated with new granite countertops. A new roof and Bosch dishwasher were installed in July 2023. All kitchen appliances and washer/dryer are included. The original hardwood floors were refinished last week. The home features new Anderson windows throughout. The main sewer line was completely replaced in 2009 when the seller purchased the property. Backyard includes newer storage shed & children's playground structure including swings & slide. The large concrete patio is great for summer entertaining. There are two bedrooms on the main floor, plus a non-conforming third bedroom in the basement. This delightful home is located on a wide, quiet street only one block from McAuliffe International Middle School.

home built with EcoBlox. She has built other such home throughout Colorado and the USA.

I love the advantages of earthen construction. Not only is it non-combustible and have a minimal carbon footprint, but studies have shown 50% less energy is needed for heating and cooling compared to a traditional wood-frame home. If you like a quiet environment, you’ll appreciate that the walls cut in half the intrusion of outside noise.

The machine that compresses the mixture of clay, dirt and lime into the blocks is made by Advanced Earthen Construction Technologies (AECT). The location of Colorado Earth’s machine is in Brighton. It can produce up to 480 blocks per hour from locally sourced clay and dirt. Being locally sourced further reduces the carbon footprint of EcoBlox.

“These machines are what builders will use when this industry really takes off, said Ryan Runge, president of AECT. Ryan says that the wood-frame style of home construction was originally a quick fix after WWII to build homes for returning soldiers, but the idea stuck. He thinks the construction industry will adopt building with products like EcoBlox now for many reasons, including fire resistance, lower carbon footprint and better insulation resulting in lower heating and cooling costs.

Lisa told me that she made a presentation to many homeowners who lost their

Price Reduced on Unique Wide Acres Ranch Home

Wide Acres is that quiet neighborhood tucked south of Colfax to the east of Colorado Mills. With 3,493 sq. ft. of finished living area, this 3-bedroom home at 1125 Zinnia Street is set back about 100 feet from the street on its 0.57-acre lot, making it even more quiet and secluded. The price is now $100,000 less than its original listing price, making it a great deal, too. Come to my open house this Saturday, noon to 2pm and see for yourself. This home is convenient to St. Anthony's Hospital, NREL, the Colorado School of Mines and downtown Golden. It is being sold by the same family that had it built in 1974. The indoor and outdoor living space is exceptional, as you’ll see when you view the narrated video tour at www.WideAcresHome.info or come to the open house.

More Je co fth graders, who were in second grade at the height of the learning disruptions, are on grade level in reading than four years ago. Also, more third- fourth-, and fth-graders met or exceeded math expectations this year than in 2019.

“Like other areas in Colorado and the U.S., Je co students faced

Je co Sheri ’s O ce plans no further contact with Able Shepherd

Centennial-based organization recently protested local PrideFest

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As other law enforcement agencies are evaluating their relationships with tactical training organization Able Shepherd, the Je erson County Sheri ’s O ce has stated it plans no further contact with the group.

Able Shepherd, which is based in Centennial, protested at Castle

Rock’s PrideFest last month. Since then, Arapahoe Community College cut ties with the organization, and the Arapahoe County Sheri ’s O ce recently prohibited the group from participating as a vendor at its Safety in Faith summit.

e Douglas County Sheri ’s O ce, though, seems to have left the door open to continue working with the group, saying it didn’t have any plans currently.

e Je co Sheri ’s O ce hosted Jimmy Graham, Able Shepherd’s founder and chief executive o cer, as a speaker at its Aug. 3 Safety in Faith summit. JCSO spokesperson Jenny Fulton con -

rmed the o ce paid Graham for his time, as it has with other summit speakers in the past.

A committee of JCSO personnel, local faith partners and others organized the 2023 Safety in Faith summit, and one of the committee members recommended Graham as a dynamic speaker, Fulton said. He presented on “Developing a Safety Team rough Training,” and JCSO sent him a thank you letter for his time, based on an Able Shepherd social media post.

Fulton con rmed JCSO doesn’t plan to have any further contact with Graham or anyone else at Able Shepherd.

During Castle Rock PrideFest on Aug. 26, protesters delayed the start of a “G-rated” drag show at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. Approximately 75 men — wearing matching shirts reading “Stand To Protect Children” — blocked the stage, postponing the beginning of the show by 30 minutes. Able Shepherd was responsible for organizing the protest. According to emails obtained by Colorado Community Media, Able Shepherd’s organization of the protest included details all the way down to what time to arrive, talking points for the protest and the coordination of matching Tshirts.

Lakewood company Terumo BCT is innovating new tech for blood cancer treatment

BY JO DAVIS JDAVIS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

September is International Blood Cancer Awareness Month. Local company Terumo Blood and Cell Technology has introduced Reveos, an automated blood processing system that will help those living with blood-related cancers.

Blood cancers include leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma and Hodgkin’s disease. According to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Blood Cancer Awareness Month announcement, more than 1.3 million people in the U.S. are living with blood cancer.

“Although they are the third lead-

ing cause of cancer deaths in the U.S., many people don’t know the impact of the blood cancers — leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma,” the society’s announcement said. Blood is essential for treating these cancers.

“Blood transfusion using cells donated by healthy volunteers can help replace red cells, platelets and other blood components,” the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society website stated. “Some people with leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma and other blood diseases or disorders such as hereditary anemias and aplastic anemia need periodic blood transfusions for several reasons.”

According to the Society, transfusions are necessary for leukemia patients because the cancer interferes with the usual blood production process in the body. Leukemia blood production issues a ect the bone marrow and blood. e drugs used to treat blood cancers, particularly chemotherapy drugs also impair regular blood production temporarily. Transfusions replenish the blood in the system while the chemo is working.

Reveos was developed because the need for blood is high, however, blood donation has greatly declined, especially here in Colorado.

“Reveos will help address the worsening blood products shortage in Colorado (and rising demand for treating patients with conditions like cancer or trauma) without requiring additional blood donors,” the Reveos announcement said. “In addition, it will help U.S. blood centers reduce labor and costs and improve overall operational eciency.”

Terumo BCT will use Reveos to increase the availability of blood products. “Reveos will help blood centers maximize the use of whole blood donations while increasing the availability of platelets for patients in need,” said Bill Block, President and CEO of Blood Centers of America.

Reveos will also help streamline the amount of time blood collection sta need to prep the blood for use in blood cancer treatment and other medical uses.

“Reveos has a long-standing track record for helping blood centers globally meet the critical needs of patients while creating e ciencies in their operations,” said Antoi-

nette Gawin, President and CEO of Terumo BCT. “We continue to invest signi cantly in innovation for the future and in supporting blood centers. Reveos and IMUGARD together target the growing and critical need for platelets. ese are just more examples of our holistic work focused on blood centers.”

According to Terumo BCT, the IMUGARD WB Platelet Pooling Set is a product already on the market. “It supports the extended shelf life of platelets from ve days to seven days,” the Terumo BCT website said. For more information on Terumo BCT and its blood production services and products, visit TerumoBCT.com.

The Terumo BCT international headquarters is in Lakewood. However, the company is developing blood processing technology in other Denver Metro labs, including a Highlands Ranch laboratory. COURTESY OF TERUMO BCT ON FACEBOOK

State GOP seeks gender care ban

BY JESSE PAUL AND SANDRA FISH THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado GOP Chairman Dave Williams formed an issue committee late last month to support a forthcoming 2024 ballot measure that would ban “child gender reassignment medical procedures” in the state.

Tom Bjorklund, treasurer of the Colorado Republican Party, is listed as the designated ling agent for the committee, called “Let Kids Be Kids.” e group’s address was originally listed as the Colorado GOP’s headquarters in Greenwood Village. It was changed to a post o ce box in Grand Junction, where Bjorklund lives.

Williams on con rmed to e Colorado Sun that he formed the committee.  “ is is an issue that will certainly unite Republicans across Colorado,” Williams told e Sun, “but it’s a separate legal e ort apart from the party.”

e state’s Title Board hasn’t received a proposed 2024 ballot measure to ban medical procedures related to gendera rming care for children in Colorado. Williams said the initiative is still in the works.

“We are nalizing language soon and are using other state laws that have recently passed around the country as a framework,” Williams said. He said the de nition of “child gender reassignment medical procedures” is still being ironed out, but said the measure will generally aim to prevent children from receiving medications or surgeries related to gender-a rming care. at mayinclude hormone blockers that prevent teens from going through puberty.

Stopping juveniles from getting gender-a rming surgery or medical treatment has become a focus of Williams and right-wing Republicans across the country. Twenty-one states have banned gender-a rming care for people younger than age 18, according to the Human Rights Campaign. An additional seven states are considering

Voters cast their ballots at Augustana Lutheran Church Nov. 8, 2022, in Denver.

such bans.

Colorado, where Democrats control the legislature and the governor’s ofce, is not among them.

In June, the Colorado GOP sent out an email saying, “Democrats support groomers who ‘teach’ your children about so-called gender a rming care … this is sick and the Colorado Republican Party will speak against it.”

Williams also blasted fellow Republicans who signed onto a May 1 letter asking the Montana House of Representatives, which is controlled by the GOP, to reconsider its decision to prohibit transgender Rep. Zooey Zephyr from its chamber. Zephyr, a Democrat, was barred from the Montana House in April after refusing to apologize for saying that lawmakers in that state who supported a ban on gender-a rming care for kids would have “blood” on their hands.

Colorado is one of at least eight states that have laws protecting gender-afrming health care.

Rep. Brianne Titone, an Arvada Democrat and the Colorado legislature’s rst transgender lawmaker, was a lead sponsor of Senate Bill 188 this year, which prohibits state courts, law enforcement and regulators from recognizing or participating in out-of-state criminal or civil proceedings around abortions or gender-a rming care.

Titone predicted voters would reject a proposed ban on gender-a rming care if it were to end up on the ballot, just as Colorado voters have rejected ballot measures seeking to restrict abortion access.

“ is is abortion 2.0, and (Republicans are) losing on abortion,” she said. “So they’re trying to use this as their

rallying call.”

One Colorado, an LGBTQ+ advocacy group, said it will oppose Williams’ initiative.

“It would take life-saving medical care away from transgender youth. Colorado is better than this,” said Executive Director Nadine Bridges. “Transgender youth should not be used for political gain or feeble attempts to seek attention, and we are con dent voters will reject this cynical proposal if it even makes it to the ballot.”

Getting a measure on the statewide ballot isn’t easy.

Williams and Bjorklund would need to get ballot language approved by the state’s Title Board and then gather more than 125,000 signatures from Colorado voters to get their question before voters in 2024.

Most groups pay signature gatherers to get their measure on the ballot, but that can cost well over $1 million — money the Colorado GOP, whose fundraising has been hamstrung, doesn’t have.

Colorado Republicans are in a historic minority in the state legislature and don’t have a reasonable chance at winning back power in the House or Senate until the 2026 election. ere are also no statewide-elected Republicans in Colorado, and the GOP is in a 7-3 minority in the state’s congressional delegation.

Colorado GOP leaders form committee to support a 2024 ballot measure to ban gender-a rming care for kids

State reps agree to open meetings deal

Settlement reached in lawsuit alleging ‘pervasive’ violations of open meetings laws

BY JESSE PAUL AND ELLIOTT WENZLER THE COLORADO SUN

A settlement has been reached in the unusual lawsuit led this summer by two Democratic state representatives alleging “pervasive” violations of the state’s open meetings laws by members of the Colorado House.

State Reps. Elisabeth Epps of Denver and Bob Marshall of Highlands Ranch o ered in early September to enter into a court-enforced deal, known as a consent decree, with the Colorado House of Representatives, the chamber’s Democratic and Republican caucuses and partisan leadership in the chamber.

As part of the settlement, which must be approved by a judge, the defendants agreed to not discuss public business or take a “formal action” during a meeting where a quorum of a state body is expected to be in attendance without rst providing public notice of the gathering and promptly making minutes of the meeting publicly available.

Also, two or more members of the House “shall not discuss public business through any electronic means (including, without limitation, any instant messaging platform or application) unless written minutes of such meetings are made publicly available upon request.” ose minutes would have to be released under the Colorado Open Records Act. Finally, the defendants agreed to pay the lawyer

representing Epps and Marshall $13,000 within 45 days to cover his fees. Taxpayers would be on the hook for the sum.

“ e settlement of this dispute does not establish wrongdoing by any party,” the agreement says.

Epps and Marshall led their lawsuit in July, alleging that Colorado House Democrats’ nearweekly caucus meetings, during which pending legislation is discussed, should be publicly noticed and that meeting minutes be recorded and o ered to the public. e lawsuit claimed members of the House Democratic caucus “directed legislative aides to omit or disguise these mandatory meetings from representatives’ calendars.”

e lawsuit also argued that House Democrats’ use of Signal, an encrypted smartphone messaging system in which messages can be automatically deleted, also violates the state’s open meeting and public records laws. According to the legal action, representatives used Signal to discuss witness testimony and how each lawmaker would vote on bills.

e legal action argued that House Republicans have violated open meetings laws, too, through their regular caucus meetings and communications on Signal.

Lawmakers’ use of Signal, which was rst released in 2014, has become more widespread over the past two or three years.

e lawsuit was highly unusual since Epps and Marshall sued their own caucus and its top leaders, House Speaker Julie McCluskie and House Majority Leader Monica Duran. It heightened tensions in the House Democratic caucus that built through the 2023 legislative session.

During the nal day of the term, during a meeting of the House Democratic caucus, Epps directly criticized McCluskie’s leadership, saying she had

been too lenient with Republicans and had allowed last-minute bills to be forced through by Democrats.

“You asked to do this,” Epps said. “I’m asking you to do much, much more.”

McCluskie, of Dillon, and Duran, of Wheat Ridge, said in a joint statement that Colorado House Democrats “believe deeply in the values of transparency and open government.”

“ rough this agreement, we continue our commitment to ensuring full public access, transparency and fairness in the legislative process,” the statement said.

e consent decree, if approved by a judge, would also apply to House Minority Leader Mike Lynch, R-Wellington, and the chamber’s GOP caucus.

Marshall, in an interview with e Colorado Sun, celebrated the agreement.

“It’s going to get us where we need to go, I hope,” he said.

Marshall said the next step is pursuing a bill aimed at modernizing Colorado’s open meetings and public records laws. e consent decree says the agreement would be in e ect until the laws are amended, hinting that changes are coming.

If a judge signs o on the consent decree, the agreement would be enforceable by the courts. e legislature isn’t in session. e 2024 lawmaking term begins in January and runs 120 days.

SPONSOREDBY:

STR owners, residents want sti er regulations, enforcement

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Owners and opponents of shortterm rentals in unincorporated

Je erson County agree: e county’s regulations need to be updated and enforced.

Short-term rental owners said the current process to get a license was onerous, and there was little recourse to make sure the rules are enforced. Opponents, who would prefer no short-term rentals in the foothills, said if they were allowed, they should be limited, and there should be strong rules and even stronger enforcement.

About 100 people attended a community meeting on Aug. 30 conducted by Je co’s Planning & Zoning sta to discuss changes they

would like to see in new regulations that sta is drafting for short-term rentals, called STRs. Sta conducted two virtual meetings to get more feedback. Anyone wanting to provide feedback on the STR regulations also can email str@je co.us.

Je co Planner Cassidy Clements, who is facilitating the changes, has said repeatedly that the county knows changes need to take place.

e county began working on the short-term rental rules in 2022, but the pandemic stopped the process. Je co has begun again, hosting community meetings to get input and hiring a consultant to help with creating the enforcement plans. Among the rules in the current Je co STR regulations are that STRs must be on a minimum one-acre lot; adequate parking must be

More charges for Arvada rock throwers

Two men accused in rock-throwing spree charged in newly-revealed Arvada attack

BY OLIVIA PRENTZEL THE COLORADO SUN

Nearly three weeks before three men allegedly hurled rocks at moving vehicles around Westminster — killing a 20-year-old woman and injuring others — authorities say two of them were involved in another attack involving a statue head being thrown at a moving car.

Joseph Koenig and Nicholas “Mitch” KarolChik, both 18, are facing two new counts of attempted rst-degree murder and attempted second-degree assault in a previously unreported incident April 1 in Arvada, Brionna Boatright, a spokeswoman for First Judicial District Attorney Alexis King said Sept. 6. Evidence related to the new charges is expected to be presented in early September

during a preliminary hearing for the three men, Boatright said. Additional details were not immediately available. e charges were led Aug. 30, she said.

e two men, along with Zachary Kwak, 18, already face murder charges in the April 19 death of Alexa Bartell, after police accused them of launching a rock from a pickup at Bartell’s yellow Chevy Spark as she was talking on the phone with a friend. e rock smashed through her front windshield and struck her in her head.

Police said Bartell’s car was the last car hit as the group hurled large landscaping rocks at a string of vehicles shortly after 10 p.m. on April 19 in Westminster. e men were also previously charged for hitting six other cars and injuring two other drivers in a rockthrowing spree.

Attorneys for Koenig and Karol-Chik did not immediately return requests for comment.

All three men remain in jail after a judge set a $2 million cash-only bond in June. Each faces 13 charges in the April 19 rock-throwing spree, including one court of rst-degree murder with extreme indi erence, six counts

of attempted rst-degree murder, three counts of second-degree assault and three counts of attempted second-degree assault, court documents show. e extreme indi erence charges allege the men knowingly created “a grave risk of death,” without caring who was injured or killed, resulting in Bartell’s death.

After their arrests, the men told investigators that they returned to the crash site to take a photo of the car to serve as a memento, according to arrest a davits.

In interviews with police, two men accused each other of throwing the rock that killed Bartell. Karol-Chik said Kwak threw the rock while Bartell was driving on Indiana Street at about 10:45 p.m. Kwak said Koenig threw it. Koenig has refused to be interviewed by police.

e Environmental Protection Agency has once again ned Suncor’s Commerce City re nery over air pollution issues, this time demanding $161,000 for producing gasoline with too many pollutants, while also requiring Suncor buy $600,000 in clean lawn equipment for nine metro-Denver counties with excess ozone.

e settlement announced by the EPA says Suncor in 2021 produced 32 million gallons of gasoline with excess benzene, and in 2022 made 1 million gallons of summer gasoline with too-high Reid vapor pressure, which can lead to pollution from evaporation. e ne comes on the heels of the EPA in August  ning Suncor more than $300,000 for alleged violations of toxic chemical regulations during a 2019 release from the Commerce City re nery.  Suncor has also been under heavy pressure from Colorado regulators over air pollution and water quality violations, while air and water quality permits are under review at the Colorado Department of Public Health and

More fines for Suncor

Environment.

e Regional Air Quality Council, a multicounty research and advisory body focused on the ozone problem, welcomed the $600,000 in clean electric lawn equipment as a boost to its recommendations for reducing ozone from dirty-burning small engines. e council has urged the statewide Air Quality Control Commission to ban the sale of gas-powered lawn equipment in the metro

area in coming years.

Small engines are a small but measurable portion of the ninecounty ozone violation problem, and considered by air experts to be a relatively easy pollution source to attack.

“ is settlement demonstrates that EPA will hold re ners accountable when the fuel they produce fails to meet legal requirements,” said Assistant Administrator David M. Uhlmann of the EPA’s O ce of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance, in a release announcing the ne. “ is settlement and the supplemental environmental project that Suncor agreed to include will provide better air quality for residents affected by Suncor’s misconduct.”

Suncor said on Sept. 6 that it had “entered into a settlement agreement with the EPA regarding two fuels-related issues that Suncor self-reported.”

e re ner said the EPA’s numbers deserve context.

“No excess benzene was introduced into the environment as a result of these issues. e exceedance at the East Plant a ected 5% of Commerce City’s gasoline

production. Our West Plant, which comprises 95% of our gasoline, was well below the standard. Looking at all gasoline produced at the Commerce City Re nery in 2021, the East Plant and West Plant volumes combined were also below the standard,” Suncor spokesperson Leithan Slade said.  Suncor said it has revised operations to prevent any more violations at the East Plant. Also, Slade said, the re nery will be ready to supply reformulated gasoline for the summer of 2024 that will “signi cantly reduce volatile organic compounds in Colorado, reducing the formation of ozone in the state.”

A requirement to sell cleaner reformulated gas in an ozone nonattainment area is one sanction the EPA can make to push Front Range cities and counties back into compliance with national ozone limits.

e Regional Air Quality Council said it has spent Suncor ne proceeds on clean air programs a total of 10 times now. A release from RAQC was critical of Suncor

Suncor Energy’s Commerce City plant is seen Feb. 17, 2023.

for not pursuing cleaner energy options as other companies have, and noted the latest nes “represent less than one hour’s earnings to the corporation” based on Sucor’s $1.88 billion pro ts in the second quarter.

“No program can undo the damage from violations like Suncor’s, but initiatives like the RAQC’s Mow Down Pollution program directly reduce ozone precursors, greenhouse gas emissions, and other air pollutants in impacted areas,” said David Sabados, communications and programs director for the council .

Ean Tafoya of Colorado GreenLatinos called it “poetic” that pro ts from an oil and re ning company will go toward removing gasoline-powered machines from the market. Environmental groups that have been pushing regulators to watchdog Suncor would like some say over how ne money is spent, Tafoya added.

e re nery as part of the

settlement will scrap the gasolinepowered lawn equipment that is replaced by the $600,000 in new electric purchases. e EPA said the equipment will be o ered to Commerce City and north Denver neighbors of the re nery complex, as well as schools and other institutions in the ozone nonattainment area, which comprises Denver, Je erson, Adams, Arapahoe, Douglas, Boulder, Broomeld, Weld and Larimer counties.

“ is supplemental environmental project will reduce these air pollution risks to local communities with environmental justice concerns in the Commerce City – north Denver area,” the EPA announcement said. “ e results from EJScreen, EPA’s Environmental Justice screening and mapping tool, suggest a signi cant potential for environmental justice concerns in the area due to a combination of high pollution burden and population vulnerability.”

Ozone and other pollutants related to fossil fuel burning can contribute to or worsen asthma and other respiratory and heart conditions. Residents of the neighborhoods surrounding Sun-

cor su er from those ailments at higher rates than in other areas of Colorado.

e EPA has also tangled with state air pollution regulators about Suncor’s history of and future plans to control various pollutants.

Most recently, the EPA objected a second time to the state’s proposed renewal of a key air pollution permit for some of Suncor’s facilities, which are split between two major air permits. In late July, the EPA agreed to objections from environmental groups that Colorado should crack down harder on carbon monoxide dangers and past plant modi cations. e EPA had previously sent an earlier version of that draft permit back to the state for revisions in other areas.

Colorado’s Water Quality Division is also reviewing Suncor’s request to renew permits for discharging tainted water into Sand Creek, which ows next to the sprawling plant and empties soon after into the South Platte River as it ows through southern Adams County. Environmental groups have noted frequent spikes in Suncor’s test results for PFAS

“forever chemicals” at the re nery’s out ow into Sand Creek.

There’s such a thing as trail etiquette

The uppermost switchback on the Bright Angel Trail in Grand Canyon National Park is eight feet wide. Yet the last time I hiked out, I was stymied by a group of young hikers walking down shoulder to shoulder, tapping on their phones.

Even when I said, “Ahem, excuse me,” I was unceremoniously nudged out of the way — not on the cli side, but still.

It shouldn’t need mentioning, but while walking on a rocky trail where one may fall to one’s death, it is best not to be watching one’s phone. And in case you were wondering, uphill has the right of way.

I am often told that people coming downhill should have the right of way because they might lose control and can’t easily stop. Well, on a shared trail, one should not be losing control, and certainly not on a trail where a fall could lead to dying, as above.

Uphill has the right of way because it is harder to stop and restart while climbing. Yes, some hikers want to stop and rest and that is their prerogative, but if I have my uphill mojo going, I don’t want to stop.

Downhill hikers also have a much wider eld of vision. Climbing up, I usually see only my feet, particularly if I’m wearing a sunhat. Since most injuries occur on the way down a trail, it might behoove one to slow down and pay attention, in any case.

Nor does this apply only to hikers. On a four-wheel drive road, the driver coming down must pull over for the driver coming up.

In mountain biking, uphill has the right of way as well, partly because if the uphill rider has to stop, they will likely be walking up the rest of the hill.

Standing at the top of a steep hill and yelling “Clear!” before bombing down is not su cient. Perhaps that is why more and more trails around Arizona have signs posted warning riders that if they cannot comply with the rules, the routes will be closed to bikes.

Mountain bikes are supposed to yield to hikers, but since I know how hard it is to stop and start on

a bike, I usually step out of the way anyway.

Yet all trail users must yield to horses. I have met horses that freak out upon seeing a piece of blowing paper, so I cannot imagine how they would react to a fast-moving bike.

Regarding those annoying downhill hikers and runners who say they “need” the right of way, I have not done the study, but I would bet they never yield no matter which direction they are heading. ey have important things to do and places to go, and maybe a phone to check.

As absorbing as it is to walk handin-hand with your sweetie, or arms linked with your BFF, you probably would not force people o the sidewalk into tra c just to keep your bestie right there. So why, on a trail, would you force other hikers to give way?

Faster hikers overtaking another party should politely make their presence known. A curt “on your left” as you elbow them out of the way does not su ce. Neither does stepping on their heels until they nally acknowledge you.

Speaking for myself, I often fall into a reverie while hiking, and I do not always notice someone dogging my footsteps. So please say something.

I’ve been startled more than once by a runner brushing against me as they sped past, sometimes on a trail narrow enough that had I stepped (or tripped!) to the side, I would have knocked the runner o the cli .

People are allowed to periodically pause on their treks. I was berated recently because I was standing with my pack facing the trail. I was informed hotly by an approaching runner that he had to slow down to pass me, and next time would I please move out of the way? I did not realize I was upsetting his Best Time Ever.

CLAIRVOYANCE AND COMPASSION

“I believe that everywhere that we’re at has spirits around us all the time,” Welte said. “It’s just that I was able to see them. So when I was 5, 6 years old, I would see the spirits walking up and down my hallway.”

BY LILLIAN FUGLEI SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

On a quiet street corner, a neon sign promises psychic readings, fortunes told for a small fee. Some signs advertise crystals, tarot, reiki or clairvoyance, a never-ending list of tools to peer into the other side.  Denver hosts a wide variety of psychics across the metro area. ough their work is often unseen, each practitioner brings their own set of skills to help give insight to their clients.

Starting out

Littleton-based practitioner Jen Welte grew up in a haunted house. She said her rst connections to the other side were the ghosts that lived in the home with her.

ough Welte had an early connection, it wasn’t until she attended a mediumship development class in 2016 that she began to hone her skills. A friend was going to the class, so Welte tagged along, not knowing what the class was for.

“I was just kind of her wingman because she was nervous to go by herself,” Welte said. “It was a mediumship development class. I had no idea there were classes for stu like this, I didn’t even know that I was a medium at this point. I just thought that I knew things and saw things.”

Mediumship is the practice of enabling communications between the living and the dead. Mediums may have messages conveyed in a variety of ways, such as clairaudience, hearing messages, clairvoyance, seeing messages, or claircognizance, simply knowing the message.

Welte continued to learn, taking classes from another local psychic — Kim Moore — and then a year-long mentorship with another psychic — Anthony Mrocka. Her mentorship occurred in 2020, which gave her the time to focus on developing her skills.

“I mean, the whole country was shut down,” Welte said. “I had no other responsibilities... So I took a year-long mentorship with Anthony. And he really, really helped me to re ne my abilities.”

For Broom eld-based practitioner Andarta, the spiritual path started with tarot card readings as a teenager. She continued to learn, receiving training to become a Reiki Master and becoming a Druid in the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids — a spiritual organization based in England.

Reiki is a form of energy work that facilitates healing. Practitioners guide energy through a client’s body to help them heal.

Andarta’s spiritual and academic paths have been connected, primarily through becoming a Priestess of Avalon.

“I’ve done a lot of studies on more of the Avalon path,” Andarta said. “Because that is not only my spiritual interest, but also my PhD is in medieval literature. What got me into medieval literature to begin with was my interest in the Arthurian legends, and Avalon and, and all of that, so I’ve really sort of crafted a lot of my own classes around that just my own personal studies, both from my academic background as well as my spiritual.”

Lakewood-based practitioner

Lizanne Flynn’s path was shaped by her time volunteering in an animal shelter. After taking several years o from working to raise her children, Flynn wanted to see what returning to work would look like for her. at desire led her to volunteer at Table Mountain Animal Shelter — now known as Foothills Animal Shelter.

“It was a good experience for me,” Flynn said. “What I didn’t expect was that when I went through the doors of the shelter, is that I would start to hear the animals. I would start to feel the animals.”

She would hear animals — par-

ticularly those that had been surrendered — asking for their families and homes.

“It was like there was an extra room and I had been given the keys to the door of that room that I could walk into,” Flynn added. “ ere was this telepathic communication with animals that was available to me, it still feels like that to this day.”

Getting to work

Welte — who started her business online during the pandemic — then applied to work with Discover Your Spiritual Gifts when she saw an opening for a reader.

“It is an amazing little shop,” Welte said. “I really enjoy being able to work there and (meeting) the people that have come in.”

Welte does tarot and psychic readings, but the main focus of her work is mediumship.

“What I want to do the most is be able to deliver to people without a shadow of a doubt information that there is life still beyond this, and that their loved ones are not in some tortured, horrible place there,” Welte said. “ ey’re right there with us.”

As a former college professor, Andarta’s switch to full-time work as a psychic was recent. ough she had been working part-time while teaching, she transitioned out of higher education this summer.

“ e fact that my psychic business is more stable than higher education, I think is a pretty crazy idea for our society,” Andarta said. “Sometimes there’s a struggle of adapting, complete career change is a little scary. And yet, I feel that there is more of a call in our society for alternate spiritual practices, and di erent beliefs, especially earth-based religions.”

Flynn’s work began with animal communication in 2008, but soon after that, she added a physical touch.

Flynn became licensed as a canine massage therapist. Canine massage is similar to massages performed on humans, helping to relieve tight muscles and stress in dogs. Flynn combines the techniques, communicating with the animals as she massages them.

She felt that the universe continued to push her towards new methods, such as Reiki, and incorporating them into her practice.

“ is is such a classic example of the universe going, ‘OK. Here’s your next step. Just go here,’” Flynn added. Her work now includes a wide va-

riety of practices, including animal communication, mediumship, Reiki and more.

As a Master Healer, Flynn resisted the title that goes with her work for a while. However, she came around to it once she realized the value of being a healer.

“ e actual de nition of a healer that I really vibe with is someone who holds space,” Flynn said. “A healer is someone who opens the door, they might turn on the light for you. But they’re not going to necessarily tell you where to look. ey’re not necessarily going to tell you what to do.”

The impact

For Welte, working as a medium has given her an opportunity to connect people, both living and dead.

“I love my work, I love helping people,” Welte said. “My main goal is just to help and let people know that we’re really not alone, that we really are all connected and that we really will get through this a lot easier if we’re just kinder to each other and more loving and more compassionate.”

Welte added that she wants to be a place people can come to heal through her work.

“For me personally, it’s very, very heart-centered,” Welte added. “I will sit there and I will cry with my clients, I will check on my clients, I will bend over backward because it truly comes from a place of love.”

Similarly to Welte, Andarta’s work is geared towards giving clients a space to heal.

“I call them clients, and yet I still see them as souls,” Andarta said. “I have great compassion for people. I think that people really resonate with that, that they know that I am there to try to help them.”

In addition to providing readings, Andarta teaches several classes related to spirituality. Her work as a teacher often means empowering her clients to engage in the services Andarta typically provides without her.

“What happens a lot of the times is that I have clients that work with me for quite a while, and then they’re like ‘Hey, I’m good,’” Andarta said. “I’m like, ‘ en go, go do it (yourself).”

is is not just to keep milking people for money,” Andarta added.

For Flynn, her work gives her an opportunity to give animals a voice, speaking for them and communicating with their owners. She emphasized the importance of simply asking animals what they’re feeling — and listening to what they say.

“Inside my animal communicator, self is going, you could just ask,” Flynn said. “I think (animals) would be happy to tell you, (for example) the life of the bee and how that works.”

While Andarta, Flynn and Welte’s practices di er, they all stressed the same idea — their talents are not unique.

“Every single human who has a physical body on this planet can do the work that I do,” Flynn said. “Absolutely everyone.”

For Andarta, Flynn and Welte, being able to do their work is simply a matter of practice and training.

“I feel like everybody has a connection to the other side, or whatever you want to call it,” Welte said.

“Everybody has a connection to spirit and that we are all connected.”

Andarta’s practices combine both her spiritual and academic background, following the Avalon Path. COURTESY OF ANDARTA.

Healthier Colorado tracks dental gap

instruction. It takes at least eight years to become a dentist.

BY ERIC GALATAS PUBLIC NEWS SERVICE

Just 49% of Coloradans are able to access the dental care they need, and health advocates say increasing the number of licensed dental therapists — especially in low-income areas, communities of color, and rural parts of the state — could help ll in the gap.

Kyle Piccola, vice president of communications and advocacy for Healthier Colorado, said dental health is directly linked to overall physical and mental health. When people go for days or weeks with pain in their mouth, it can lead to a cascade of negative impacts.

“ e data is clear. Likely that person is going to miss work, their emotional well-being is going to go down. If you’re a young person, you’re going to be missing school,” Piccola outlined. “ ere are huge repercussions to not taking care of your oral health.”

More than one million Coloradans lack access to proper dental care, and there are more than 100 areas across the state designated as

experiencing a Dental Care Health Professional Shortage, according to an analysis by KFF. e state would need to add at least 143 practi-

tioners to meet the dental health needs of all Coloradans. Dental therapists can be licensed in Colorado after three years of

Piccola pointed out clinics with dental therapists who work under the supervision of a dentist and are trained to provide most common treatments have seen improved outcomes, including lower numbers of tooth extractions.

“School-based dental therapists have been able to cut llings in half for those kids,” Piccola reported. “In tribes and rural areas, the wait times and the travel times that those people have been experiencing have been signi cantly reduced.”

Colorado is one of 13 states currently set up to license dental therapists, and Piccola noted the state recently made it easier for people who want to relocate to the Centennial State to bring their credentials along with them.

“Any dental therapist can take any one of the dental therapy programs around the country,” Piccola emphasized. “As long as they meet the education training requirements, then they can go ahead and apply for a license to come and practice here in Colorado as well.” is Public News Service story via e Associated Press’ Storyshare, of which Colorado Community Media is a member.

Statistics show Colorado heating up

Nearly 50% of Denver’s daily record-high temperatures have occurred since 2000

BY JOHN INGOLD THE COLORADO SUN

Early this month, the daily high temperature in Denver irted with a mark not seen so far in 2023: 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

is year could end up being the rst since 2015 without a 100-degree day in the state capital. But the 99-degree high Sept. 1 was still a record for the day — and that is anything but an anomaly in recent years.

Inspired by the recent 99-degree recordbreaker, we decided to chart when each of Denver’s 366 daily records for high and low temperatures was set, going back 151 years to when such records began being kept. (366 and not 365

to account for the record readings on leap days.)

e record lows are fairly evenly distributed, with a noted lull in the 1920s, ’30s and early ’40s. But record highs are concentrated in more recent years.

Nearly 50% of Denver’s daily record-high temps — 178 of 366 — have been set since 2000. One-third have been set since 2010, and more than 12% — 46 daily record highs — have been set since 2020.

For comparison, about 19% of Denver’s daily record-low temps have been set since 2000, and about 4% have occurred since 2020.

e early September record temp toppled a mark that stood for only four years. It was the fourth record-high temperature set so far in 2023, to go with ve record-low temperatures.

And, despite what has felt like a pretty mild summer in and around Denver, the average daily temperature between June and August actually fell right in line with long-term averages, ranking it the 80th-coolest summer in 151 years, according to 9News.

Help for Colorado parents to pay for preschool

Colorado’s new universal preschool program mostly pays for half-day preschool, but several programs o er financial assistance for families that need more hours of care.

BY ANN SCHIMKE CHALKBEAT COLORADO

Starting this fall, Colorado is offering 10 to 15 hours of tuition-free preschool to all 4-year-olds as part of the state’s universal preschool program. More than 40,000 families have already applied, but the application process is still open and will be available throughout the year.

But what if you need more class time for your child than just 10 to 15 hours a week?

ere are several ways to get nancial help for those extra hours. e universal preschool program will pay for up to 30 hours of preschool a week for some children. ey must be from low-income families and fall into one of the following categories: English language learner, homeless, in foster care, or have a special education plan. Simply being from a low-income family is not enough to qualify for 30 hours.

We’ve compiled a list of other programs that may help cover extra hours of preschool, including Head Start, the Colorado Child Care Assistance Program, and, for Denver residents, the Denver Preschool Program. Summit County also o ers tuition assistance for preschoolers, through its Summit Pre-K Program, though the application window generally runs from May 1-31.

Military families may be eligible for nancial help through the Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood

program, which is for families who can’t access military-operated child care programs because of waitlists or the distance from their homes.

Finally, it’s worth asking your child’s preschool if they o er scholarships or discounts that could help lower the cost of care.

For questions about universal preschool or adding extra hours, contact the universal preschool help desk at 303-866-5223 or the local group in your county that is helping run universal preschool.

Here’s a quick look at some of the programs that can be combined with universal preschool to provide students with full-day classes.

What is it: A state program that helps low-income families pay for child care, including preschool. Parents must be working, looking for work, or attending school.

Who’s eligible: Families whose children are citizens or legal permanent residents and whose household income is 200% to 270% of the federal poverty line. at’s $60,000 to $81,000 for a family of four. Each county sets its own income criteria, so check here for details based on where you live.

Financial aid: CCCAP covers most of the cost of child care for qualifying families, with the amount varying based on how much care a child needs above their universal preschool hours. Families who qualify

• ose staying at STRs should not be allowed to have anything that could create a spark because of wild re concerns.

• Fines for noncompliance could be large to deter STR owners from breaking the rules.

• Rules should be required on trash, so uninformed guests don’t attract bears.

• Don’t allow parties.

• Require homeowners to be onsite.

• Allow fewer short-term rentals in the foothills than down the hill.

• Limit the number of STRs throughout the county.

• STRs should not be allowed on a dead-end road.

• Septic tanks should be pumped regularly.

• Don’t allow hot tubs, especially on properties that are on wells.

• Commercial businesses should not be allowed to buy up homes to create STRs.

STR owners

“I own a short-term rental property,” one owner named Sara said. “It’s unfortunate it’s come to this point. We can all agree there’s frustrations on both sides.”

e permitting process, she said, is di cult, and it would help if Je co’s enforcement process was better.

“Both ends have the same concerns,” she said. “ e county is not doing its job. People who are responsible short-term rental owners are being thrown under the bus.”

Another STR owner said she operates one to supplement her income, so she can stay in her house. Others use STRs to pay for second homes.

Another STR owner said he tried to get a short-term rental license, but it took so long that he gave up and operated one without a license.

“Many of the concerns can be mitigated by regulations and responsible owners,” an owner said.

Concerns about STRs

Residents suggested the foothills were not vacation destinations, and people could stay in hotels instead of in homes.

“We live in our mountain community because that is where we want to live,” one speaker said. “If they want to live here, they should move here, not just be a tourist.”

Some said STR rules should be di erent in the foothills than down the hill because of di erent issues such as wild re threats, wildlife, wells and septic systems.

“As a resident,” one person who is against STRs said, “I feel abandoned. I feel like I’m not important.

A clear compliance timeline would be helpful. If we complain, we need to know when there will be a response.”

Short-term rental owners, especially those that are owned by commercial ventures, are willing to risk (residents’) lives and homes to make money, one speaker said.

Residents said they love their safety, privacy and security, but instead, there’s been animosity, frustration and anxiety. ey are concerned about security in the neighborhood because residents don’t know who is staying in their neighborhoods.

“Our neighborhoods are being disrupted,” said Randy Leonard, an organizer of Foothills Foothills Community Action Group, a group working to get county rules changed and enforcement increased. “Some of us have had our lives turned upside down because of short-term rentals.”

Horse herd roundup begins

Federal roundup seeks to remove entire wild horse herd in western Colorado

BY JENNIFER BROWN THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado’s rst scheduled wild horse roundup this year is set to begin this month, when federal land managers plan to start removing the entire West Douglas herd in Rio Blanco County along the Utah border.

Starting in September, a low- ying helicopter will try to push all 122 horses, which are on public and private land, into temporary corrals before hauling them to the U.S. Bureau of Land Management’s holding pens in Cañon City.

e last roundup of West Douglas horses, in 2021, resulted in the removal of nearly 450 animals from rugged land the BLM has deemed unsuitable for mustangs. About one-

third of those horses — 145 of them — died in Cañon City seven months later in an equine u outbreak.

Investigators determined that many of the horses, whose lungs were likely damaged by a wild re when they were living on the rangeland, were not vaccinated against the u after they were captured, in violation of federal policy.  Mustang advocates in Colorado and nationally are protesting the latest roundup.

“ e Bureau of Land Management appears to have learned nothing from last year’s horri c disease outbreak at the Cañon City holding facility,” Joanna Grossman, equine program director for the Animal Welfare Institute, said in an emailed statement.

She called the federal plan “especially troubling” since Gov. Jared Polis signed a law this year that attempts to give the state greater authority over wild horse management, including by supporting fertility control programs and possibly a wild horse sanctuary. e governor,

who tried but failed to stop a federal roundup in the Sand Wash Basin in 2021, has said he wants more humane options than helicopter roundups.

Federal land managers plan to remove 20 horses from the Sand Wash Basin, in northwestern Colorado along the Wyoming border, at the end of September.

Across the highway from West Douglas, in what’s called the Piceance-East Douglas herd management area, the federal government has enlisted volunteers to shoot birth control darts into wild mares. e BLM this month announced it was awarding the volunteer group running the birth control program, the Piceance Mustangs in Meeker, a $120,620 grant to keep darting horses, and to buy water tanks to keep horses alive when creeks in the basin are dry.

e West Douglas rangeland is not one of Colorado’s four o cial herd management areas and was deemed inappropriate as a mustang habitat in 1975. e area has limited water and grasses, and removal of the mustangs will “restore a thriving natural ecological balance,” the agency said. Mustangs in the area are impacting the habitat of other animals and have spread onto private property, Mills said.

e public lands where wild horses graze in Colorado are shared not only by deer, elk and other natural habitat, but cattle and sheep whose owners lease the land from the federal government.

Last summer, the federal agency used a helicopter to remove 761 horses from the Piceance, which is dotted with sagebrush and oil pumps and has cli s and canyons where vehicles cannot go. e rangeland still has about 750 horses, and it’s likely to see another roundup in the near future because federal land managers say the appropriate number for the 200,000 acres is 235 wild horses.

e appropriate number for West Douglas, the BLM says, is zero.

“ e West Douglas herd area is not managed for wild horses due to limited food and water, which causes the horses to stray into private lands,” the agency’s White River eld o ce manager Bill Mills said in

After arriving in Cañon City, the horses will receive vaccinations and other veterinary care and, after a few months, will be available for adoption. ose not adopted will go to the BLM’s long-term pastures, which the agency leases from ranchers and other landowners in various parts of the country.

e BLM removed more than 30,000 horses in 2021 and 2022 from rangeland across the West, including about 1,500 in Colorado. is year, the agency plans to remove about 6,000 horses nationwide.

Fort Logan honor guard seeks members

All Veterans Honor Guard in dire need of volunteers for military funerals

BY HALEY LENA HLENA@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e American ag being folded and presented to family members, the perfectly aligned ri es and the sound of taps. All powerful moments that make up the ceremony to pay nal respects to those who served in the U.S. military.

e nonpro t, All Veterans Honor Guard, is made up of ve teams that provide nal honors at Fort Logan National Cemetery. Since forming in 1994, they have provided nal honors for over 20,000 veterans.

When the organization rst started, it was made of six teams. In their rst year of providing this service, they attended nearly 63 funerals.

Kathy Kraski, an Air Force veteran and All Veterans Honor Guard

volunteer, got involved with the organization nearly 20 years ago.

“Just about every year since then, the number [of funerals] has increased,” said Kraski. “But the number of volunteers hasn’t.”

In 2015, the number of teams dropped to ve - Castle Rock, Littleton, Aurora, Arvada and Fort Logan - and in 2021, the teams attended over 1,500 funerals.

Kraski said the honor guard now has less than 80 volunteers.

She has been going to multiple Veteran events attempting to recruit volunteers, but Kraski said it’s not as easy as it seems.

By law, one must be a military Veteran to participate in nal honors.

According to the United States Department of Defense, it is by law that an honor guard detail for eligible Veterans consists of at least two members of the U.S. Military. Additionally, one of the members must have served in the same service branch as the deceased Veteran.

“ e worst part is, if we go under, there’s nobody to replace us,” said Kraski. “And I don’t ever want to have to tell you or somebody you know that we can’t provide honors.”

e All Veterans Honor Guard does joint services with the military, which folds the ag to be handed to a fallen service member’s family member. e honor guard provides the commander who conducts the service and talks about the deceased and his or her service to the county, as well as the relationship to the ag.

e service also includes a chaplain to conduct a prayer, a bugler to play taps and a ri e detail with weapons from World War II.

As the honor guard continues to provide the service to hundreds of families, Kraski said the organization is in dire need of volunteers.

e organization provides the training and the uniforms for the service but they are running into a

few problems, including that most funerals take place on weekdays.

“ at eliminates the young Veterans for the most part because they’re working and they have families,” said Kraski.

Kraski also said the organization will take disabled Veterans as volunteers, however, a lot of them su er from post-traumatic stress disorder related to combat and the ring of the weapons would trigger the Veterans.

Although volunteers don’t receive monetary compensation for their time, Kraski said it’s an honor being able to provide nal military honors for the deceased and their families.

“We’re not even asking for a day a week,” said Kraski. “If we can get a couple of days a month, it would help us.”

To volunteer or make a donation to the organization can be found done through their website, https:// www.allveteranshonorguard.org/.

Standley Lake football outlasts Westminster at the NAAC

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

ARVADA — Standley Lake coach Tyler Gallas wanted to sustain long o ensive drives ursday night in the Gators’ homecoming game against Westminster.

Junior running back Liam Graham had other plans, which included a 97-yard touchdown run that jumpstarted an eventual 34-29 victory for the Gators at the North Area Athletic Complex.

“Last week it was almost the same thing, but I got caught at the end of it,” Graham said of his 97-yard touchdown run that came with 7:31 left in the rst quarter. “ e entire time I just tried to keep picking up my feet and not get caught. It was fun. at was fun.”

Standley Lake jumped out to a 13-0 lead in the rst quarter on the legs of Graham. e junior running back had a 5-yard touchdown run less than two minutes into the game. Westminster fumbled on the rst o ensive play from scrimmage and Standley Lake sophomore Nikko Blanco recovered the loose ball on the Wolves’ 22-yard line.

“I’m just so proud of how hard they played,” Standley Lake coach Tyler Gallas said after the win pushed the Gators’ record to 2-1 on the season. “Before the game I talked about, ‘Are you were willing to sacri ce the e ort necessary to get you a homecoming win?’ ey did.”

Westminster answered the quick start by the Gators behind junior Mason Kiewiet. e Wolves’ quarterback had a pair of touchdown runs (16 and 53 yards), along with a touchdown pass to senior Hunter Emgarten to give Westminster a 21-20 lead at halftime.

However, Standley Lake had a key scoring drive to open the second half. e Gators chewed up the majority of the third quarter and capped o a 9-play drive with a 10-yard touchdown run by senior Dorsey Satter eld to give Standley Lake a 26-21 lead.

Westminster had a long drive too in the third quarter, but the Gators’ defense forced a turnover on downs at Standley Lake’s 8-yard line.

“Our defense de nitely played great in that second half,” Graham said.

Standley Lake’s o ense went on a 92-yard scoring drive that took nearly 9 minutes o the clock.

e Gators gave a heavy dose of Graham and Satter eld on the nal scoring drive on the night for Standley Lake.

On the 15th play of the drive — 4th-down from

the 2-yard line — it was ruled by the sideline judge that Graham just reached the ball to touch the end zone for his third touchdown of the night.

e Gators took a 34-21 lead with 3:53 left in the game.

“He is special the way he sees the game,” Gallas said of the Gators’ leading running back who has seven touchdowns on the season and well over 500 yards on the ground through three games.

“It is his second year in our system. He is really starting to understand the o ense as a whole and what we are trying to do up front.”

Junior Boston Harris was also special for Standley Lake. Harris stepped in at quarterback for senior Braden Smith, who su ered an injury in the Gators’ victory over Skyline last week.

Harris not only was solid at quarterback but had two key interceptions on defense. Harris picked o Kiewiet on the nal play of the rst half at the goal line to prevent the Wolves from taking a 2-score lead into halftime. He then had a second pick with under 4 minutes to play to help

seal the win.

“You show me another quarterback who is going to be playing both ways this weekend,” Gallas said of Harris. “What a man of composure. He is always even-keeled and always ready to go. He leads by example.”

Gallas said he hopes to have Smith back on the eld next week at quarterback, but Harris proved he is capable of going under center.

“I just love Boston. He is just such a great athlete,” Graham said. “He knows what he is doing on the eld. It’s great playing with him.”

Standley Lake will try to run its winning streak to three games next week when the Gators host Northglenn (2-0 record) at 4 p.m. Friday, Sept. 15, at NAAC.

“We are growing every single week,” Gallas said. “We have a tough Northglenn team ahead of us.” Westminster (2-2) is back home next week to face Prairie View (1-1) on Friday, Sept. 15.

“It is de nitely di erent from last year,” said Phillips, who pitched just under 25 innings with a 2.27 ERA last season as a junior. “I think I pitched in four or ve games. Now I’ll be pitching in almost every single one.”

Araya Ogden was Columbine ace the last three years racking up an impressive 45-4 record in the circle over the past two years. Ogden had a 0.89 ERA last season during the Rebels’ run to the state championship.

With the graduation of Ogden, it’s Phillips’s turn.

“She (Phillips) has been very, very impressive,” Columbine coach Jim Santaniello said. “She had to have a lot of patience through her high school career. Now it is her time to be in the sun. She has completely exceeded expectations. We think she will just get strong as the season goes along.”

Phillips had a 4-0 record in limited action on the hill last season. She made it a point to work hard during the o -season to solidify her spot as the Rebels’ ace. She switched pitching coaches over the o -season to Mike Forsythe — pitching coach for Florida International University.

“It has helped me improve so much,” Phillips said of working with Forsythe. “My spins are so

much better. My pitches move more. My rise ball has changed. Everything is working great.” rough Sept. 8, Phillips had a 10-1 record with a 2.82 ERA for the Rebels that were No. 5 in the Class 5A softball CHSAA Seeding Index heading into the nal day of the Dave Sanders Memorial Tournament on Saturday, Sept. 9.

“I think Liz is going amazing,” Columbine senior catch Eva Martinez said. “She has been my best friend for a while. She is an amazing competitor, super smart and hard on herself. She knows what she is doing.”

Columbine went 3-0 in pool play with victories over Golden, Moun-

tain Vista and Central of Grand Junction. e Rebels were scheduled to face Eaglecrest in the seminals of the Diamond Bracket at 11 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 9, at Aurora Sports Park.

“We are looking forward to playing that elite competition,” Santaniello said. “ at is what is going to get us to that next level and prepare us for league.”

e Rebels return the majority of starters from last year’s squad. e core of youth includes sophomores Livi Keiter, Nina Vargas and Mason Abraham that will anchor a strong

defensive in eld with junior Ana Lovato at second base as well.

“ at is the foundation of this team, real strong defense even going back to last year,” Santaniello said. “Whenever you have great defense you are always in the game.”

Columbine did get a good challenge from Mountain Vista on the morning game Friday. e Golden Eagles scored four runs in the bottom of the sixth inning to cut Columbine’s lead to 6-4, but the Rebels got out of the jam with a strikeout-throw out to end the inning.

Phillips stuck out Kenzie Ezzell and Martinez threw out Lily Oss trying to steal second.

“It was kind of a boom-boom thing,” Martinez said of the strikeout-throw out to end the bottom of the sixth inning. “Liz and I both did our jobs. at was crucial at that point.”

Phillips helped out her own cause going 3-for-3 from the plate which included a 2-run home run in the third inning from her No. 8 hole position in the line-up.

“I feel like all of us are really good,” Phillips said of the Rebels’ line-up o ensive. “When one person is o somebody else is going to be on. It’s a good mix.”

Columbine will be in the mix to win its fth 5A Je co League title over the past six seasons. e Rebels open conference play Wednesday, Sept. 13, at Arvada West High School. e Wildcats (12-2) were No. 2 in the 5A CHSAA Seeding Index to start the weekend.

Dennis Pleuss is the Sports Information Director for Je co Public Schools. For more Je co coverage, go to CHSAANow.com.

Columbine senior Eva Martinez is a key part of the Rebels’ o ensive attack that has already piled up double-digit victories before the start of the Class 5A Je co League season.

Public Notice

STATE OF COLORADO, JEFFERSON COUNTY, CITY OF ARVADA

NOTICE OF INTENT TO UNDERTAKE CERTAIN ACTIONS

LEYDEN RANCH METROPOLITAN DISTRICT

PUBLIC NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that, pursuant to § 32-1-207(3)(b), C.R.S., the Board of Directors of the Leyden Ranch Metropolitan District (the “District”) intends to undertake certain actions as described herein pertaining to the refinancing of its Series 2017A, 2017B and

2017C Bonds through the issuance of its Series 2023 Refunding Bonds.

In 2017, the District issued its General Obligation Bonds, Series 2017A (the “Series 2017A Bonds”), General Obligation Bonds, Series 2017B (the “Series 2017B Bonds”) and General Obligation Bonds, Series 2017C (together the “2017 Bonds”) in the combined par amount of $6,500,000, for the purpose of paying for the costs of Public Improvements needed to support the Leyden Ranch development.

As of June 30, 2023, the Series 2017A Bonds are currently outstanding in the principal amount of $4,730,000 (plus approximately $19,527.67 accrued interest) and bear interest at a rate of 5.125%; the Series 2017B Bonds are currently outstanding in the principal amount of $1,000,000 (plus approximately $512,345.00 accrued interest) and bear interest at a rate of 7.000%; and the Series 2017C Bonds are currently outstanding in the principal amount of $600,000 (plus approximately $536,744 accrued interest) and bear interest at a rate of 11.000%.

The District’s resident controlled Board has evaluated, analyzed and determined that refinancing the 2017 Bonds through the issuance of its Series 2023 Refunding Bonds (the “2023 Refunding Bonds”) is in the best interest of the District residents and property taxpayers and refinancing will achieve the following cost savings: (1) substantially lower the overall debt interest rate to an anticipated 5.65% (the final interest rate to be determined in conjunction with pricing and closing); (2) a projected debt service saving of over $5,200,000 with a present value savings for the District’s residents and taxpayers in the amount of $1,709,000 (a projected savings of 27% of the refunded 2017 Bonds); and (3) allow for a substantial reduction in the debt service mill levy imposed by the District from its current level of 45.004 mills down to an estimated and projected 33.500 mills.

The District intends to refinance its Series 2017 Bonds through the issuance of its Series 2023 Refunding Bonds at a principal amount not to exceed $7,500,000 so long as the refinancing enables the District to lower its current mill levy rate and achieves a net present value savings of at least 3%.

NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that, pursuant to and in accordance with § 32-1-207(3)(b), C.R.S., any action to enjoin such proposed issuance of the Series 2023 Refunding Bonds as a material departure from the Service Plan must be brought within forty-five (45) days from publication of this Notice, which deadline is October 29, 2023.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the resident controlled Board of Directors of the Leyden Ranch Metropolitan District, City of Arvada, Jefferson County, Colorado authorized this Notice to be given.

SUMMONS FOR: ALLOCATION OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITES

To the Respondent named above this Summons serves as a notice to appear in this case.

If you were served in the State of Colorado, you must file your Response with the clerk of this Court within 21 days after this Summons is served on you to participate in this action.

If you were served outside of the State of Colorado or you were served by publication, you must file your Response with the clerk of this Court within 35 days after this Summons is served on you to participate in this action.

You may be required to pay a filing fee with your Response. The Response form (JDF 1420) can be found at www.courts.state.co.us by clicking on the “Self Help/Forms” tab.

The Petition requests that the Court enter a Order addressing issues involving the children such as, child support, allocation of parental responsibilities, (decision-making and parenting time), attorney fees, and costs to the extent the Court has jurisdiction.

Notice: Colorado Revised Statutes §14-10123, provides that upon the filing of a Petition for Allocation of Parental Responsibilities by the Petitioner and Co-Petitioner, or upon personal service of the Petition and Summons on the Respondent, or upon waiver and acceptance of service by the Respondent, an automatic temporary injunction shall be in effect against both parties until the Final Order is entered, or the Petition is dismissed, or until further Order of the Court. Either party may apply to the Court for further temporary orders, an expanded automatic temporary injunction, or modification or revocation under §14-10-125, C.R.S.

A request for genetic tests shall not prejudice the requesting party in matters concerning allocation of parental responsibilities pursuant to §14-10124(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 the final order, the genetic tests may not be allowed into evidence at a later date.

Automatic Temporary Injunction – By Order of Colorado law, you and the other parties:

1. Are enjoined from molesting or disturbing the peace of the other party; and

2. Are restrained from removing the minor child(ren) from the state without the consent of all parties or an Order of the Court modifying the injunction; and

3. 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 child(ren) as a beneficiary of a policy.

If you fail to file a Response in this case, any or all of the matters above, or any related matters which come before this Court, may be decided without further notice to you.
