We’re not done with COVID Colorado entered the New Year with different varieties of COVID vaccines making the rounds. It ended the year with different varieties of COVID itself making the rounds.

After a year when COVID defined everything, from work to school to shopping to dining, Colorado was ready for a break from masks and social distancing. And overall, we got it, thanks to a few rounds of vaccines. Stores and customers welcomed customers back, shedding masks mandates until some nasty variations on the original COVID-19 virus began to show up and spread, spiking a new surge.

While proving mostly effective, the vaccines were rationed early in the year. First up were health care workers and first responders who had been dealing with COVID patients.

Next were seniors and those with compromised immune systems and finally, by spring, most adults were eligible, with vaccines for children approved in November. By the end of November, the state estimated that 73.7 percent of the state’s eligible population had received at least one dose, and 65.5 percent were fully vaccinated.

Ryan Oakes was born colorblind but it wasn’t until first grade when his mother discovered it.

“My mom was watching me color the tree trunks green and the leaves brown. She said, let’s get you tested,” said Oakes.

He’s in good company. One in 12 men and one in 200 women are colorblind totaling about 13 million in the United States, 30 million in Europe, and 350 million worldwide.

EnChroma, a company that

manufactures glasses that let the colorblind see colors, surveyed approximately 1,000 colorblind people and parents of colorblind children shared experiences on how their colorblindness - technically called Color Vision Deficiency - has impacted their education.

“The evidence is overwhelming that colorblindness creates learning challenges for color-blind students. Parents, educators, and politicians must become more aware of the prevalence of color vision deficiency its impact, and take action,” said Erik Ritchie, CEO of EnChroma.

Oakes tried a pair of Enchroma glasses two years ago, it was an emotional change.

“When driving along the road flowers would just blend,” he said.

Westminster votes to lower tier 3 water rates

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster city council voted 5-2 on Dec. 21 to effectively do away with the top water rate tier, making the top rate equal to the middle rates.

Effective January 2022, Tier 3 water rates will be $8.15 per thousand gallons. The move comes after a Nov. 29 water study session where city council voted 6-1 to direct staff to deliver a bill that would modify tier 3 rates.

It will affect 25 percent of utility customers who use more than 21,000 gallons of water in a month, according to a meeting agenda written by Interim City Manager Jody Andrews.

Councilor Rich Seymour noted that this is the first step and that council will be working on amending tier 1 and tier 2 rates in the future.

“I believe from what I’ve seen and heard from many many residents is

that we missed the mark as far as how big that third tier is,” Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott said. “That un-equitably hit certain people with large lot sizes and if you look at the map of people that that hit, it’s across the city, it’s across all different economic demographics and that’s my concern.”

Councilor Sarah Nurmela said suspending the rates is not an approach for future sustainability and thinks there is more data needed to make an informed decision.

“This is not providing any forward thinking in terms of our long term

sustainability.” Nurmela said.

DeMott said that the proposal is data driven and sat before them as a temporary solution while looking at long term decisions.

Councilor Obi Ezeadi said the temporary relief is not equitable.

“I know first-hand that most of the (water rates) impact to the residents, they weren’t all in tier three, they were across all tiers,” he said. “It doesn’t make sense to me why we would rush this, when we know we are going through fact-finding sessions.”

Ezeadi said the council will receive a proposal for all tiers in January and thinks the council should wait until then to vote.

“Let’s give relief to everyone or no one,” he said. “Let’s make the right decision, not the fast decision.”

Mayor Nancy McNally referenced maps given by the city with blue dots,

indicating residents with tier three water rates.

“There is not a place in this city (without) blue dots,” she said.

Max Kirschbaum, Public Works and Utilities Director, said the dots represent individuals that go into the tier three threshold anytime, either once or consistently, which he says is the reason they are distributed throughout the city.

Councilor Lindsey Smith said the change is a workable solution until the city and council formulate a permanent one.

“It’s not a long term solution, but it’s an option right now,” she said.

Nurmela asked about how the move would impact revenues to the city.

Kirshbaum said the reserves would offset $750,000.

Thornton City Council votes to appeal term limits decision

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Thornton City Council voted 5-4 to appeal a court’s decision that the mayor’s seat and councilors’ seats adhere to the same term limits.

“The court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, indicating that the court believed the mayor’s seat and the councils’ seats are part of one elected body and constitute the same office

for purposes of term limits under the Colorado Constitution,” Tami Yellico, Thornton’s city attorney said.

The court’s decision comes a bit in favor of both sides. Since Kulmann did not finish her full term as a city councilor, the judge granted her to serve as mayor until 2023. However, that will be her final year.

The suit alleged that it was illegal for Kulmann to seek reelection, and the city argued council positions and

the mayor position are different. However, the court ruled they are not.

Denver-based attorney Robert McGuirey filed the complaint in Adams County district court on behalf of plaintiff Cherish Salazar. When she filed the suit, Salazar said the issue is something she has spoken up about for two years now. It specifically names Kulmann but includes the entire city council and the city.

“Before her (Kulmann’s) name went on the ballot, I tried to present my argument at that point,” Salazar said, referring to the 2019 election when voters elected Kulmann as mayor.

Ward 4 voters first elected Kulmann to a four-year councilor term in 2013.

She won a re-election bid in 2017 and then ran for mayor in 2019 and won.

According to an interpretation of the Colorado Constitution and the Thornton City Charter, the complaint argues that a councilor and the mayor are legally one and the same, pertaining to term limits.

“All nine seats on the Thornton City Council (mayor plus the eight Ward council members) constitute a single ‘office,’” the suit states.

The suit also says the Colorado Constitution only allows city councilors to serve two four-year terms.

The City argued that since the SEE TERM LIMITS, P19

Ezeadi hosts councilor office hours

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster City Councilor Obi Ezeadi will host office hours for residents to voice their concerns and learn about city council’s affairs.

The office hours will take place at City Hall every Monday from 4:30-5:30, and Ezeadi said they will last “forever.”

“These office hours came about as one of many new ways that I hope will help to inform and engage our residents,” Ezeadi said.

Before heading on the campaign trail, Ezeadi said he knew the council needed to earn back the trust of residents, and much of that work starts with communication.

“I believe that there’s an opportunity to rebuild that trust with this new council, and I strongly believe that one of the ways of doing that is a radical increase of communication and transparency,” he said.

Ezeadi said he talked to residents at grocery stores, train stations, on social media and more throughout his campaign. He said the feedback from residents regarding the increased communication was extremely positive.

“Time and time again throughout the campaign, residents kept telling

me that they wish the city council would do the same (communicate more,)” he said.

He said some voices continue to be left out of the democratic process.

With this as one tool in his communication toolbox, he thinks he can help involve more people with matters of local government.

“Many folks would be engaged in what happens with the city if the city communicated more to them,” he said.

Not only increasing citizen involvement with Westminster’s government, Ezeadi said he hopes more communication will better the government itself.

“Being open to it, being accessible to it, listening more,” he said. “All of those things make us a more responsive government, so it’s really about how do we transform our government to be more responsive.”

“A responsive government helps to yield a better quality of life for everyone - from the thousands of residents that are one paycheck away from financial ruin, to others that simply want to raise their family in a safe neighborhood full of culture and activity,” he said.

As of now, Ezeadi is the only city councilor holding office hours. He is unsure if others will follow suit.

The plan would leave virtually all of Douglas and Elbert counties where they are now, in the 4th Congressional District. The populated western sections of Arapahoe County, including Littleton, Englewood and Centennial, would be in the 6th District along with adjacent areas of Jefferson County, like Ken Caryl and Columbine.

Voters will go to the polls based on the districts this year.

But COVID wasn’t done, however, and slight mutations in the virus began coalescing into new variants that targeted the unvaccinated.

The Delta variant began spreading nationally in the Spring of 2021, with the latest variant, Omicron being found in Colorado on Dec. 2.

Meanwhile, COVID continues to surge across the country and in Colorado - the state department of health estimated 4,737 new cases as of Dec. 28.

Tri-County can’t shake COVID, either Before COVID landed in Colorado, Tri-County Health had a rather simple mission. The entity, which has served Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties since 1966, provided restaurant inspections, nutrition counseling, health services for new mothers and children and disease control for most Denver’s eastern Front Range.

But as questions about COVID 19 and the proper response to the quickly-spreading disease cropped up in 2020, the health agency found itself the target of criticism.

The agency’s response to COVID was cautious from the beginning, urging everyone to wear masks, stay socially distant from each other and get tested. Once vaccines became available, Tri-County and its agents began promoting them.

But cracks began to form before the vaccines were available. Responding to the health agency’s call for a stay-at-home order in March

of 2020, Douglas County voted to leave the agency by 2021, forming their own health agency. While their separation was delayed until 2022, Douglas County is still firm in its decision to leave the agency.

Adams County followed suit in October, voting to stay with the agency until Dec. 2022, giving them a year to create their own agency.

Likewise, Arapahoe County voted in December to separate from the agency at the end of 2022.

As it stands, the member counties will continue relying on the health agency for the remainder of the year, and Executive Director John Douglas predicted in November that the agency would continue to exist and have some role, suggesting that the three counties

might form their own boards of health to handle policy and political concerns but continuing to rely on Tri-County Health - or whatever it becomes - to take care of day-today public health services.

Colorado gains a seat in Congress One thing the 2020 census showed was how much Colorado has grown during the last decade enough that the state earned a new eighth seat in Congress. But what portion of the state that new seat would represent was the big question of 2021.

It was the first test of the state’s new redistricting commission, which was approved by voters in 2018 as a way to take politics out of the every-decade need to redraw political maps based on new census numbers. The commission began meeting early, releasing its first draft in June based on census estimates from 2019. Final census numbers wouldn’t be released until August.

Every district shifted somewhat to make room for the newcomer, with Jefferson County’s 7th district shifting south to include Castle Rock, as did the 6th District.

The plan the commission ultimately adopted - and the state Supreme Court ratified - makes Northglenn, Thornton, Commerce City, Brighton and most of Westminster and Fort Lupton in Weld County part of the new 8th Congressional District.

Uplands moves ahead It may be years until the first new residents move into what was an open farm lot in the Shaw Heights area of Westminster, but the impacts of the debate surrounding the project can be felt today.

Developers Oread Capital first began talking publicly about developing the 235 acres surrounding the Pillar of Fire Church in 2019. The plan ultimately called for developing the large open space surrounding the church to create Uplands, a massive mixed-use development, with housing options ranging from single-family homes to apartments and townhomes as well as parks and commercial areas. The project would ultimately have room for 2,350 dwelling units in a mix of housing types.

Neighbors of the project objected almost immediately, dubbing their group Save the Farm. They argued that the city should find a way to preserve the area - one of the few remaining undeveloped parts of the city - as open space or as a community agricultural project. They feared the development would ruin the character of their neighborhood, driving up real estate prices while clogging the area with cars.

Westminster’s Planning Commission and the City Council both ultimately agreed that the project met city zoning standards called out in the Comprehensive Plan and granted approval. Next, with the broad plan approved, specific portions of the project will begin moving through the city approval process.

Foes of the project said they won’t be going away, promising to continue fighting against the project and targeting City Councilors that voted in favor.

REVIEW FROM PAGE 4

Drama on the dais in Westminster Westminster’s Water rates brought the conflict between Westminster City Councilors to the forefront in 2021, leading voters to oust four members of the council at the polls in November.

Ultimately, that change paid off for those who think Westminster residents pay too much for water as councilors made changes in December to lower the rates.

A group of residents began passing petitions in 2020 to unseat Mayor Herb Atchison and councilors Anita Seitz, Kathryn Skulley and Jon Voelz. While 2020 ended with the recall effort unfinished, the group did manage to gather enough signatures to challenge two members - Mayor Atchison and Councilor Voelz.

Atchison promptly resigned, and the council elevated Seitz to serve as mayor for the remainder of the term. Voelz, whose term was set to end in November, was able to win the recall vote in July.

But the council was unable to fill the seat Seitz left vacant, leaving a three-three split on all controversial votes going forward. Seitz, Voelz and Skulley tended to vote as a block while councilors Rich Seymour, Lindsey Smith and David DeMott voted against them.

That split ended with November’s vote. Seitz, Skulley, and Voelz all lost their seats while voters returned DeMott to office. The three were replaced by returning Mayor Nancy McNally and councilors Sarah Nurmella, Bruce Baker and Obi Ezeadi.

Thornton council remains divided The Thornton City Council voted to oust their City Attorney in January 2021, but it wasn’t a simple decision.

Mayor Jan Kulmann said she had received information from nine city employees alleging some sort of harassment from City Attorney Luis Corchado, prompting a Jan. 19 vote to end his contract with the city. The council agreed by a 5-4 margin, with councilors Jessica Sandgren, David Acunto, Adam Matkowski and Angie Bedolla joining Kulmann to fire Corchado and Jacque Phillips, Julia Marvin, Sherry Goodman and Sam Nizam voting against him.

The four on the losing side said they were never given the same information the other five had.

Council members continued sparring later in the year, with Mayor Kulmann criticizing Councilor Phillips for taking a position at a school district in Southern Colorado and questioning if Phillips was still representing Thornton voters. Phillips defended herself by saying she continues to live and work in Thornton but, as a consulting lawyer, works with clients around the country.

Her work has no impact on her council position. Phillips claimed Kulmann’s criticism was retaliation for Phillips 2020 criticism of an unannounced trip Kulmann took to attend an event at the White House hosted by then-First Lady Melania Trump.

Northglenn municipal complex moves ahead The first piece of a revamped and refurbished Northglenn municipal complex came online this fall.

The city opened its new Recreation Center in October, complete with bigger pools and workout space, a new and expanded Parsons Theatre and a new senior center.

Work on the $54 million, 87,887 square-foot project began in Oct. 2019, and it was the first phase in the project that could see the city replacing the old recreation center with a new city hall and replacing the current City Hall with housing and retail space.

In the meantime, however, councilors agreed to use the now vacant old recreation center to house up to 25 homeless individuals. Working with the Denver Rescue Mission, the building will offer shelter for working homeless or people with a connection to Northglenn — meaning they could have family in the city, work in the area or attend school there. The shelter is scheduled to be open through March.

Westminster leadership shift City Manager Don Tripp said in October he had been contemplating stepping down for some time, but he waited until a report on the city’s police department was completed. Once it was, and Police Chief Tim Carlson had announced his retirement, Tripp stepped down.

“While there is never a perfect time to let go of the reins, I am thankful to have a strong executive team, and I am confident the city will have a smooth transition,” Tripp said in a written statement.

According to the report from security firm U.S. ISS Chief Carlson did not effectively manage the department’s culture. The report also detailed instances where a senior officer “routinely demeaned and was disrespectful to employees in the use of profanity, rude, and offensive language, disparaging comments, and personal insults.”

Carlson took a leave of absence in July while the report was being written and formally announced his retirement when it was made public on Oct. 6. Tripp announced his retirement the next day.

Councilors confirmed former Deputy Manager Jody Andrews as Tripp’s interim replacement while the Council looks for a permanent replacement.

A theft that wasn’t Westminster resident Armando Valdez Gonzalez, 50, started his day on June 5 like he did most summer Saturdays, his bank bag in hand while he searched local garage sales looking for bargains.

He ended the day under arrest with his name and face spread across the internet as a thief.

The District Attorney’s office cleared him of charges, saying he was not guilty of any crimes. He still spent the night in jail with $11,000 of debt he didn’t have before.

It stemmed from an incident at Westminster garage sale, with Valdez speaking with a woman at the sale. She noticed the bank bag he carried and mistook it for her purse, which would later turn up in the house. As he tried to leave, the woman, her husband and a neigh-

bor tried to stop him. The woman fell as she hung on to his truck, hitting her head on the pavement.

Both parties contacted Westminster Police, but Gonzalez was unable to meet with them until the next day. In the meantime, Westminster Police had sent out a press release, which was carried by most metro Denver news outlets.

When he did meet with Police the next day, they promptly arrested him and transported him to the Adams County Detention Facility, issuing a new press release with his name, photograph and the charges he faced. That, too, was carried by most metro Denver news outlets.

Meanwhile, Police continued to investigate, collecting Gonzalez’s bank bag from his home and later discovering that the woman’s purse had been her house the whole time.

Gonzalez posted a $4,000 bond on June 7, incurring nearly $7,000 in Attorney fees.

Police reforms Northglenn formed a citizens group to oversee police operations in 2020 and one of the first things that the group proposed in 2021 was creating a team of behavioral health professionals to help de-escalate tensions during police emergencies.

The group of co-responders would be managed by the Northglenn City Managers office and would work with both Police and Code Enforcement officers. Similar programs in other local cities are under the jurisdiction of the Police Department. The program would cost the city about $300,000 for the first year. It’s supported by Police Chief Jim May, the city’s municipal judge and Code Enforcement department.

Meanwhile, Thornton was looking to form its own Policy and Community Team to review and offer input on Police department policies, training and long-term strategies.

to you, and then you see change on how the world is, it’s emotional.”

It’s part of EnChroma’s Color Accessibility Program that helps schools, state parks, libraries, museums, public venues and other organizations purchase and loan EnChroma glasses to colorblind students to help with homework and visitors to see colorful exhibits, and attractions.

Seeing red…and green People with normal color vision see over one million shades of color. The colorblind only see approximately 10 percent of hues and shades.

Common colors that the colorblind are confused with are green, yellow, gray, pink, purple, blue, red, and brown appearing muted and dull. Since 80% of information is processed visually it causes issues for color-blind students in school, according to the study.

EnChroma glasses are built with special optical filters that help the colorblind see the range of colors within the spectrum of colors more vibrantly with the accuracy of colors.

The EnChroma glasses were invented by founders Dr. Don McPherson, Chief Science Officer for the company, and Andy Schmeder in early 2000. McPherson stumbled upon what the glasses could do while he was playing frisbee and wearing a pair of tinted laser safety glasses he was designing. A friend borrowed the glasses and was shocked he could see the color orange.

“Most people are born with color vision deficiency (CVD). It is a condition inherited genetically,” McPherson said via email. “The colorblind gene is carried recessively on the X chromosome maternally.

Since women have two X chromosomes if they get the color-blind gene they have a “backup” and are

Seeing art In 2019, the Denver’s Museum of Contemporary Art became part of the EnChroma Color Accessibility program, lending EnChroma glasses to visitors with colorblindness to experience the colors of art.

Anythink Wright Farms was inspired by this program, according to Stacie Ledden, Anythink director of strategic partnerships. They began loaning the glasses to members in December, offering an EnChroma kit that includes the glasses and a book with colorful illustrations.

The kits can be checked out for up to three weeks, allowing color-blind visitors to experience their homes and community in color.

Anythink is also offering a limited number of MCA passes to its customers that check out the kits.

“The library is responding to community needs by offering EnChroma glasses to Anythink Wright Farms customers,” Ledden said.

“The glasses offer a new perspective on the world. By making glasses available for checkout to custom-

not colorblind.”

“Since men have only one X chromosome, they do not have a ‘back up’ X, which is why men are more often colorblind than women,” he said. “Some people can suffer an injury to their retina that can render them colorblind. Additionally, color vision declines with age as part of natural macular degeneration. However, most people are born colorblind.”

Testing Some states test students for colorblindness as standard practice, but Colorado is not one of them.

Oakes said he was lucky to grow up in Nebraska, where the testing is standard. That testing confirmed his diagnosis, which allowed him to adapt. He currently works as a Pastor.

“I’m red-green colorblind. I have the green deficiency so I see Pro-tan, I can’t see green very well but when I see red and green together in certain settings it’s difficult out to pull out these colors,” Oakes said.

The biggest change for Oakes with the glasses his hobby is playing board games. The board games have colors for your teams.

“Until recently they haven’t done much for colorblind people and are trying to do more but when I put these glasses on playing the board games I can see all the colors and see the distinction.”

EnChroma encourages schools to quickly test students. Its test is easy and in under two minutes for colorblindness and it is free online at enchroma.com. Also, Anythink library offers an illustrated book to test for colorblindness.

McPherson said he’s gratified his invention is helping people.

“It is inspiring to hear from colorblind people that our glasses are helping them with everyday obstacles and frustrations from matching clothes, picking ripe fruits, enjoying the wonders of the colors of the rainbow, or better understanding color-coded information at work or school - to more profound experiences such as seeing the colors in their child’s artwork, the eye or hair color of a loved one or the colors of a sunset over the Rockies,” he said.

Ledden is asking members to share their experience using the EnChroma glasses at sledden@anythinklibraries.org.

VOICES

An ode to an artist: Westminster’s unique mediator

W

hat can you say about Harvey Morris?

Well, it depends on whether or not you know Harvey.

CROSS Those of us who have worked with CURRENTS him at the City of Westminster over the past 42 years know he is unique, funny, original, interesting, happygo-lucky, dedicated, entrepreneurial and more.

You might know Bill Christopher him from the standpoint of his interest in his work at the city, and that he consistently achieves results and reaches solutions to challenging and sometimes “gray” issues. You see, he deals with people who often have differing opinions and perspectives on the issues at hand. He is a mediator of the first degree.

You might also be generally aware of his successful real estate business which has grown over the years.

Do you have a guess as to what position he holds in the city? No, he isn’t an engineer, but he would

be quick to offer advice on an engineering challenge.

Did you say police officer? No, but you are getting warm. Spoiler alert - he has worked “in the field”, performed the role of mediator hundreds of times and has gained city code compliance.

He is a city code enforcement officer and in his unique “Harvey Morris style” has gotten positive results for the past 39 years.

Harvey’s resume Let’s start in the beginning when Harvey grew up (if he ever has grown up) in Long Island, New York. He was seasonally employed by the Southhampton Police Department at the age of 21. He tells us that his police work generated encounters with the rich and famous and he can drop a few names and stories involving Ethel Kennedy, Alan Alda, Fanny Flag and Nancy Reagan for “openers.”

He came out west in 1975 to attend Ames College where he earned an associate degree in Police Science. He was hired by the Westminster Police Department and attended police training at CLETA twice.

Why twice? For three years, he

served as a court liaison officer in the municipal court serving arrest warrants, which is not a fun job.

Then he saw an opening for a code enforcement officer in Community Development Department and started his legacy.

At the same time, he had purchased two rental properties. By the age of 30, he owned five rental properties and his real estate business came on the scene. In the ensuing years, he acquired a total of seven rental properties and sold approximately 400 homes.

He “flies close to the sun” at times Harvey enjoys helping people and being a mediator. His goal is to keep peace in the neighborhood when the issue is between neighbors - with the city is in the middle.

He likes to see things completed.

He is a people person, which goes a long way when approaching residents with code violations. He achieves 90% voluntary compliance with city codes most times, issuing a warrant only as a last resort. Some consider it an art form and property owner Bill Kearney says “Harvey is an artist.”

His supervisor, Aric Otzelberger,

tells me that Harvey “flies close to the sun” at times with his maneuvers, unique approaches and is definitely a one-of-a-kind guy. Aric assigns Harvey to the stickiest code issues.

Alternative Great Works of Art One of Harvey’s favorite stories involves him working with the city’s Street Division Superintendent. Neighbors complained that about broken concrete being dumped in a ravine on private property. It turns out that the city street division crews were the culprits as they were trying to save money on landfill dumping fees. It was awkward, but Harvey got them to stop.

My favorite story involving him had to do with a Halloween costume contest among city employees one year. Each department had a theme the staffers were dressed to carry that out. The Community Development’s theme was “Alternative Great Works of Art.” Hidden behind a sheet, Harvey posed on a toilet with his head down and right arm resting on his head. He was portraying an SEE CHRISTOPHER, P9

ou don’t have to be great to start, but you do have to start to be great.” — Joe Saba.

Here we go, the first week of the WINNING year begins and WORDS we are back at it, whatever “it” may be for each of us.

Whether we claim 2021 as a huge success, a miserable failure, or anywhere in between, the good news is that we get either build upon Michael Norton to the successes, grow from the failures, or jump-start our way out of our comfort zone.

Heading into the new year, we get to choose what it is we want to start doing. For many of us, we thought about what it is that we want to stop doing instead of what we want to start doing. When we think of what we are trying to stop, it means we see that as something that is negative, maybe it’s a bad habit that we

know we need to break. Having this awareness is so powerful when it comes to making positive changes in our life.

The best way to stop or break a bad habit is to start a new, good, healthy and productive habit. What I have noticed in life is that people who get stuck, knowing they want to stop doing something that could be destructive or disruptive to their life, but don’t stop, is because they didn’t come up with a better alternative.

We may argue that this should be common sense, but keep in mind that common sense is not always common practice. Many of us miss our own “aha” moments because we are so close to a problem or situation that we can’t visualize our way out of it. We need someone else to come alongside of us and point out what might be obvious.

As I thought about the column that I would write to begin the year, I knew that I wanted to begin the year with a one-word theme. I outlined several drafts of what the column could be about and had plenty of

positive, motivating and encouraging words to choose from. Before I knew it, I was stuck. Then it hit me, “Start” would be the word and all I had to do was “Start” writing and the story would almost write itself.

“People who never take step one, can never possibly take step two.” Zig Ziglar Why don’t we take the first step?

It comes down to one of two things: Fear of failure and no time. Fear of failure can be crippling if not paralyzing, but it is also the common language of negative or destructive self-talk. A kind of negative self-talk that when we eliminate it propels us forward toward the accomplishment of our goals and dreams. If we can start filling our head and heart with good, strong, and positive encouraging words, we will stop feeding our minds with negativity.

No time? What we are really telling ourselves is that everything and everyone else is more important than our own health and peace of mind. No time is the easiest cop-out of all. Sorry, but it’s true. What we need to do before we stop doing any-

thing is start prioritizing what we are doing. What will have the greatest positive impact on our lives so we in turn can have an even greater impact on those around us? Change the talk-track in our head with what to start doing, and what we need to stop doing will become obvious.

Are you ready to start the new year? Are you ready to start the year by deciding to get past the fear, the excuses of no time, stopping all that is dragging you down or holding you back, so that you can enjoy all that 2022 has in store for you? I would love to hear your story at mnorton@ tramazing.com, and when we can overcome our fears and make time to start doing more of the good, pure, powerful, and positive actions and stop doing those detrimental, negative, and destructive things, it really will be a better than good year.

the outrageous, despicable attack on the U.S. Capitol by Donald Trump’s so-called “patriots.”

Participants continue to be identified, arrested and tried in a court of law.

Some of those arrested repent and say they wish they had never participated. Some could be considered questionable, regarding their state of mental health. Some say they didn’t know the insurrection was intended to go as far as it did.

However, most are die-hard anarchists which makes me wonder not if, but when the next attack may come.

Let’s hope all of the “wannabee patriots” have learned a lesson by watching the QAnon Shaman, Oath Keepers, Proud Boys and many others as they one by one are found guilty and will be serving their sentences in prison.

Welcome to the New Year of 2022 Here we are already into a new year. Will it be another year like 2020 or 2021 or better? No one can say for certain, but we pray it will be a better, more joyful, healthier year.

Often, they teach customers about more than food

conceptions about her country as well.

“With everything happening in Haiti right now, there’s bad news all the time,” she said, “But to me, there’s more to Haiti, more than the news.”

She said she hopes those curious about the country will try her food to learn a bit about it.

“You get a taste of Haiti,” she said. “Even though you’ve never been to Haiti.”

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

S

ometimes when customers enter Cafe Jordano, a longstanding Italian restaurant in Lakewood, they inquire about the lack of romantic music and quiet ambiance.

Owner Elisa Heitman, who was born and raised in Naples, Italy, takes a moment to explain: that is simply the American impression of her homeland.

“In Italy, the restaurants do not have dim lights and they have lots of people that talk,” Heitman said, “And they’re definitely not quiet.”

That’s just one of the parts of her country that Heitman seeks to share with customers through her restaurant, which has been in the community since 1991.

Heitman and dozens of other restaurateurs across the Denver Metro Area bring the food and culture of their homelands to local communities. Often, they’re correcting stereotypes and connecting Coloradans to novel ideas about far away places.

For Farah-Jane Jean Pierre, owner of Fritay Haitian Cuisine food truck, she’s teaching many that not all Haitian food is spicy and that her home country is more than what is seen on the news. For Grant and Yoona Conrad, owners of Hangry Ohana, they’re spreading Aloha and introducing locals to the sometimes-unexpected flavors of Hawaiian barbecue.

More to Haiti

When Jean Pierre moved to Denver three years ago, the only Haitian restaurant she knew of was closing down, she said. Previously, she had been in New York, where the food of her home country was abundant and easy to find.

With degrees in culinary arts and hospitality and a group of friends encouraging her to start her own restaurant, Jean Pierre soon decided to take a course in opening a food truck. Now, the recentlyopened Fritay Haitian Cuisine food truck

sits at 8615 East Colfax Avenue in Denver.

During the time she was preparing to open her food truck, Jean Pierre worked with her mother and aunt, both of whom still live in Haiti, to develop her recipes, she said.

“And then I put my own touch on them,” she said.

The truck serves common Haitian street food like plantains, rice and black beans, poul fri (fried chicken) and griyo (fried pork). Much of the food is prepared in a traditional haitian marinade called epis, which is a blend of herbs, garlic, peppers, vinegar and oil.

With many customers having never tried Haitian food, Jean Pierre often provides samples and explains a bit about her cooking process.

“There’s a misconception that Caribbean people eat a lot of spicy food,” Jean Pierre said. “But that doesn’t mean all our food is spicy.”

Jean Pierre, who moved to the United States a month after the deadly 2010 earthquake in Haiti, hopes to address other mis-

Spread the Aloha Grant and Yoona Conrad met in college on the Hawaiian island of Oahu where they both participated in a local ROTC program.

Grant started working in the restaurant industry while there and fell in love with the island’s food, he said.

The couple eventually moved to Colorado, where Grant was raised. Grant was working as a district manager for Wendy’s at the time but in 2016, he decided to open Hangry Ohana, a Hawaiian barbeque food truck. Two years later, they opened their first storefront location in Parker and later opened restaurants in Fountain and Monument.

Now, Yoona, who grew up in Hawaii, gets to enjoy the food she grew up with, which isn’t very common in the Denver Metro Area.

“I get homesick like most people,” she said. “Grant’s cooking skills and business skills help me not miss home as much.”

The couple used a mix of taste memory, Yoona’s family recipes, and their own flavors to develop the dishes now served in the fast-casual restaurant. Some of the main items include chicken katsu, kalua pork, macaroni salad and bacon fried rice.

It’s not just the food from Hawaii that the couple is providing, it’s also the culture.

One thing Yoona likes to do is “spread the Aloha” with their customers, she said.

“Aloha is like a term for love and caring and saying hi,” she said. “It’s a good, warm comfort type of word and we want to instill that in our restaurant culture so our customers feel at home and get a little bit of the island experience.”

Benchmark Theatre confronts our American darkness

T

he Jan. 6 capitol insurrection is one of the darkest days in the history of the country — one that we’re still reeling from COMING and trying to figATTRACTIONS ure out to prevent from happening again.

When something that scarring happens, it can take art a while to catch up.

But that’s not the case with Lakewood’s Benchmark Theatre, which is Clarke Reader tackling the event head on with the world premiere of “Our American Cousin: a nation divided” — held on Thursday, Jan. 6.

“The state of our discourse is no longer point-counter point any more. Now it’s about diluting the truth with so many opinions and perspectives that the truth can no longer be gleaned,” said Marc Stith, who is co-directing the show with Neil Truglio. “One of the concepts I hope people come away with is how fragile the truth is right now.”

“Our American Cousin” runs at Benchmark, 1560 Teller St., through Saturday, Jan. 29. Performances are at 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday. Audience members should be prepared to demonstrate proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test no more than 72 hours old. They will also need to wear a mask.

1979, she quickly fell in with the restaurant industry. She met her then-husband and about a decade later, the couple opened Cafe Jordano – named for their son.

“Everybody said ‘you’re crazy, you’re never going to make it,” she said in an interview with Colorado Community Media.

Now, it’s 31 years later and Heitman says it was reasonable prices and word of mouth exchanges that maintained and grew the restaurant.

Many of the restaurant’s dishes are a blend of traditional recipes combined with their own unique twist, Heitman said.

While visitors sometimes only think of spaghetti or lasagna when they first glance at the menu, Heitman’s offerings include many other dishes like Pollo Ele-

country, but it allows the theater to take part in current events conversations as they’re happening.

“The theater has gotten away from being very, very immediate, but we as artists need to be talking about and responding to these events as well,” Truglio said. “It’s theater for audiences excited to see something new, risky, immediate, a little dangerous and dark.

aim is to get to the truth by doing no narrative writing — all that is presented is direct, unedited quotes from a variety of participants. Six actors — Shannon Altner, Chris Kendall, Bruce Laks, Suzanne Nepi, Josiah Peters and Ryan Omar Stack — take on dozens of roles each as they perform the very words of the participants. Truglio said the production owes its style the living newspaper performances produced by the Federal Theatre Project in the 1930s.

“It’s a highly theatrical version of what happened and audiences will get to meet people they had no idea were involved,” he said. “The play is a moment in time and we think it needs the audience and the conversation.”

Both Stith and Truglio emphasized that the show is for everyone on the political spectrum and the hope is that by using only direct quotes from participants, it will cut to the truth and foster conversation. And Benchmark wants to be a place for those conversations, with several discussion options for audiences being considered.

“We don’t want people to view this as some kind of hatchet job. We’re just presenting what the people who were there said,” Stith said. “Audience members will walk in with their own confirmation bias, but we’re not viewing this through the lens of party — it is what it is.”

More COVID, more games, more salutes in second half of sports calendar STAFF REPORT

COVID-19 didn’t disappear from view during the second half of 2020. It affected some teams during the fall prep sports season.

Still, some non-COVID things popped up, such as runs through the state tournament and runs to a state softball championship.

Here’s our look at who did what in the second half of the 2020 calendar year.

July Because of the COVID-19 sports schedule, the state swimming meet wasn’t until late June.

Legacy High School finished fifth in the team standings. The last event of the meet – the 400-yard freestyle relay – turned into the Lightning’s top performance of the meet. The Lightning’s Sam White, Tegan Barrier, Aidan Shepston and Kyle Raskay placed fifth in a time of 3:05.74. Legacy’s 200-yard freestyle relay team (Jack Tran, Thomas Nguyen, Shepston and Barrier placed sixth in a time of 1:25.77.

Track meets The delayed schedule meant the state track meets were a little later than usual.

Skyview High School’s Bahati Nabindu, who usually bided her time during track meets as a jumper and a sprinter, took up the shot put this season, made her first appearance in the state meet and won the state 4A shot put title June 25 at Jeffco Stadium. Her best throw of 36-5 ½ came during the third of three throws in the preliminary round.

“Even though COVID messed things up for me, God showed me something else,” Nabindu said. “I have never been to state before.

So, going in as the fourth seed, I was scared and nervous.”

Nabindu’s teammate, Jennifer Jaramillo, finished 14th. Her top throw at state was 30 feet 3 inches, her last throw of the competition.

Jaramillo’s top throw during the regular season was 31-4 1.2.

There was more at state track. Skylar Hawk of Holy Family won the state title in the girls 300-meter hurdles. Brody Welch set a school record in the shot put and won that event easily with a 50-4 1/2 throw, a school record. Welch also took fourth in the discus.

Holy Family’s 4-by-100-meter relay team (Connor Byrne, Pierce Kunz, Dominic Neely and Grayson Arnold) finished third in a time of

Legacy’s Ryan Montera recorded a pair of top-five finishes at the state 5A track-and-field meet at Jeffco Stadium. He took third in the 3200-meters with a time of 9:16.42. He was fourth in the 1600-meters, posting a time of 4:13.57. The Lightning’s Tyson Spradling finished second in the high jump at 6 feet 4 inches.

On the girls side, Mia Mraz of the Lightning was 10th in the 3200-meters with a time of 11:21.58. She also finished 14th in the 160–meters, where her time was 5:14.53.

Holy Family wins and losses The Tigers’ soccer team won a state title, too. Holy Family got the game-winning goal from Gianna Sandoval with 12 seconds left to give the Tigers a 2-1 win over Evergreen in the finals of the state 4A girls soccer tournament June 26.

Holy Family’s baseball team took second after a championship doubleheader in Pueblo. Ponderosa beat the Tigers 11-2 in the second game. HFHS beat the Mustangs 10-4 in the opener.

Cord Kringlen had two hits and three RBIs. Brennan Bennett had a pair of base hits and an RBI, and Blake Hammond struck out six in 6 2/3 innings on the mound.

Riverdale’s first After a day to think about winning his school’s first state title in any sport, Riverdale Ridge’s Braylen Fenderson said he was surprised. Fenderson won the 100-meter dash. Fenderson, a senior, went into the state meet as the top seed in both the 100- and 200-meter dashes.

“There was a little pressure, not only because I would be the first one in my school to take first in state but also because it is my last year in high school and I wanted to go out with a bang,” he said. “I stayed interested because I hate to be last or to be the lesser one in the field. So I was determined to keep myself in shape if I was going to do track to put that space between me and my competition.”

Paralympian Beatriz Hatz had a full summer ahead of her. She qualified for the Paralympics in Tokyo.

routine.

There’s also this.

Hatz, who is 20 and a 2019 graduate of D’Evelyn Junior/Senior High School, was born without a fibula in her right leg. Doctors amputated the leg below the knee.

August Prairie View High School athletic director Jason Humphrey may have summed up the coming fall sports season as it relates to the ongoing battle against COVID-19.

“We’re just kind of waiting for the other shoe to drop,” he said.

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment decided to let local public health officials and local officials determine protocols for in-person learning and activity participation, according to a press release from the Colorado High School Activities Association.

“Local public health officials and school districts have the autonomy to adopt stricter standards than the national and state recommendations, based on the conditions in their area,” the release said.

who qualified for state a year ago as a freshman, led the charge for the Ravens. He fired a 70 in the second round and finished at 2-over 142 and wound up in a fifth-place tie. He had two birdies in the opening round and followed that up with two more birdies in the closing round.

Bradley Weinmaster, another sophomore, held the lead into the second round of the two-day tournament. He finished the second round with a 77 and was 6-over in the tournament. Weinmaster, who tied for 10th, carded three birdies Oct. 4 and three more Oct. 5.

College choices Legacy High School’s Kieran Gaffney found out that Cochise College in Sierra Vista, Arizona, was pretty nice. He committed to the school.

He’ll sign his letter later.

“Cochise has been one of the better junior colleges in the country over the last 15 years,” Gaffney said.

“I have followed them for a long time, and I know that they have a good job placing guys at four-year schools when they are done. “I also really wanted to go juco because I have to opportunity to play the first two years out of high school.”

New playoff ratings CHSAA’s board of directors won’t use CHSAA’s Ratings Performance Index as the sole means to choose playoff teams starting in 2022. Instead, the method will be a combination of CHSAA’s RPI numbers and

ratings from MaxPreps. This applies to team sports (baseball, basketball, football, soccer, softball and volleyball).

League champions and winners of district tournaments for smaller schools, such as Stargate School in Thornton and Fort Lupton High School, still earn automatic spots in their respective state tournaments.

Softtall titles One could easily understand why Holy Family’s Ava Kuszak had a smile on her face as big as all outdoors. For one, her team won its second straight state 4A championship, a 10-4 win over D’Evelyn Junior/Senior High School Oct. 22 at Aurora Sports Park.

Kuszak finished with four hits in the championship game and eight in the two-day tournament.

Riverdale Ridge High School made it to the state 4A softball semifinals for the first time in school history over the weekend. But the Ravens ran into the top-seeded Holy Family Tigers in that round and lost 7-3. Holy Family went on to win the state title.

Calling on FIFA There are a lot of things that go into Denver’s efforts to land part of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. There’s an overall interest in youth soccer.

There’s a desire to be part of an expanded tournament field in 2026 where 48 countries will earn spots.

And there’s a desire to show off Denver to the rest of the nation and the world.

for the state tournament – but not without a struggle.

The Indians’ Jonathan Diaz Mendoza scored twice in the last 10 minutes of the second half to give CMHS a 2-0 win in the opening round of the state 4A soccer playoffs.

Junior Cooper Stephens isn’t any stranger to scoring goals, and his scoring prowess came up big to help the Lightning advance out of the first round of the Class 5A soccer playoff tournament Stephens found the back of the net in the 52nd minute of the contest to lead No. 7 Legacy to a 1-0 victory over No. 26 Ralston Valley Oct. 27 at the Adams District 12 North Stadium.

Grandview, the eventual state champion, blanked Legacy 1-0- in the semifinals.

More college picks There was one thing Skyview High School point guard Mikylah Espinosa wasn’t worried about when she took the floor last fall – college.

“I chose Metro (Metropolitan State University of Denver) because it’s very close to home, and I’d love to stay close to my mom,” she said.

“Aside from that, I fell in love with their campus. It’s very easy to get around, and the basketball girls are really nice and welcoming.”

Soccer and Volleyball Northfield beat Holy Family 4-1 in the second round of the state 4A soccer tournament Nov. 3 in Denver.

Jackson Ward scored the Tigers’ goal in the second half. Mike Smith,

Zach Liptzin, Ben Kiley and Moises Indad scored Northfield’s goals.

HFHS goalkeeper Jack Krueger made four saves, while Northfield netminder Alex Witzel made two.

The Tigers finished the season with a record of 10-6-1.

The Tigers and, for the first time, Riverdale Ridge High School, advanced to the regional playoff round in girls volleyball. The Tigers moved into the state tournament and stayed alive through two of the three days of matches.

Eighteenth-seeded Mountain Vista pulled out all the stops to upset No. 15 Legacy in the opening round of the CHSAA Class 5A state playoffs Nov. 6. The Golden Eagles scored 21 unanswered points and forced five turnovers to upset the favored Lightning 42-17 at Five Star Stadium.

Blue/Gray Riverdale Ridge Senior football player RJ Holliday was among almost 300 players chosen for the BlueGrey All-American Bowl Monday, Dec. 20, at Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium.

“I’m not sure about the whole nomination process,” Holliday said.

“I was sent a letter from the BlueGrey All-American Bowl national director, Gus Bell, informing me I had been nominated ‘based on excellent football performance at the high-school level.’”

That led to an evaluation on film and other sources as part of the selection process. Holliday is a two-time, all-conference selection, a three-time selection to the state’s academic all-state team and an honorable-mention all-league honoree. This season, Holliday caught 37 passes for 767 yards and 10 touchdowns.

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster city council unanimously approved $318,000 from the State of Colorado Department of Human Services Office of Behavioral Health Co-Responder services program grant on Dec. 21.

“We’ve seen tremendous usage of this program,” acting Deputy Chief Edna Hendershot said.

The program handles more than 130 calls and referrals a month, Hendershot said, and they are looking to expand the program. Currently, only

would come from the reserve in the utility and would not impact the capital program,” Andrews said.

Nurmela also noted the tier rate structure was designed to encourage conservation and asked what the impact to saving would be.

“My personal opinion is that it will impact our conservation overall as a city,” said Kirschbaum.

Public Comment Residents had criticism for councilors for rushing the change.

two co-responders and a supervisor are on the grant and Hendershot said she would like to add a third coresponder and a case manager.

“We certainly could use them much more than we are able to with the amount of time that they can spend,” Hendershot said.

The program is designed to help the police department address mental health issues, according to a press release from the city.

“While officers on the Westminster police force are exceptionally well trained, they are not as well equipped as a mental health profes-

“This council’s elimination of the tier 3 water rate benefits only 25% of our residents and picks favorites, it’s not equitable,” said Tom Jurgens.

“This is absolutely unequivocally no time to be encouraging more water use in this region in this era than is absolutely necessary,” said Chris Stimpson.

Stimpson also said that maintaining landscapes foreign to the climate is selfish.

Carol Campbell, a 40 year resident of Westminster, thinks this is not the correct decision.

“If the city is concerned that residents cannot afford water, then it should evaluate which residents need financial or technical assistance to minimize their water bills. Alternatively, I think the city should contem-

sional to deal with the highly specialized needs of someone in crisis,” the press release said. “The goal of the Mental Health Co-Responder Program is to prevent individuals in crisis from unnecessarily going to the hospital for a mental health evaluation or to jail and into the criminal justice system as a result of escalating behavior which may be compounded by their crisis.”

Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott told a story of his daughter experiencing a mental health crisis and ending up cuffed in the back of a police car.

“It’s a matter of resources that we

plate a new rate and fee cost of service study,” she said.

Michelle Zajic, on behalf of Westminster’s Inclusivity Board, recommended that council postpone their vote. She emphasized stories of residents deciding between paying for their water bills or other necessities like medicine.

“We do not believe these stories are confined exclusively to tier 3 water users,” she said.

Craig Russell, who owns properties in Westminster, noted a flaw in the requirements the city imposes on him.

“I’ve always told them, if God waters I’ll mow, but that’s not good enough for the city program. They’re requiring that I keep my 80 percent of yard grass green,” he said. “I can’t afford it.”

provide to you all because someone in a mental health crisis does need to be safe as well as the people around them,” he said. “This is part of the rethinking of how we deal with those kinds of things, not just as a city but as a society, so I’m excited to see this continuing to go on.”

“I think mental health and this co-responder program should be one of our highest priorities to expand,” Councilor Ezeadi said.

The program is funded through the grant, and Ezeadi said he hopes to see the program in the next budget.

TERM LIMITS FROM PAGE 2

mayor and the councilors have different duties, they are two different seats, Yellico told councilors.

“Having sat in both seats, it is very clear to me that they are two different seats,” Kulmann said during city council’s discussion.

Yellico confirmed that the ruling means Kulmann cannot run for a third term in 2023, or anybody who has had two terms in council or as mayor. Yellico also estimates the appeal will cost taxpayers between $20,000 and $30,000. To date, more than $35,000 has been spent on this case.

What’s at stake with the appeal, Yellico said, is whether council and the mayor are the same for term limit purposes. The ruling says they are, but the city will challenge it.

Councilors worried about conflicts of interest and wondered if an appeal would make any difference.
