Saving money, being economical in Westminster City claims climate change matters are top of their minds

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster officials said climate change and searching for more economical

ways to operate are always at the forefront “We’re saving residents money, improving the environment because you’re not using as much coal-fired power plant electricity, and the co-op also brings people together in kind of a community gathering,” said Paul Schmiechen, Westminster’s Chief Sustainability Officer.

The question came up during the City Council’s March 31 Town Hall meeting. Christopher Stimpson, a Westminster Resident, chair of the city’s Environmental Sustainability Board and a leader of Westminster Progressive Action, pleaded with councilors to act on climate change.

“It doesn’t matter if we get education right, it

doesn’t matter if we get immigration right, healthcare right, it doesn’t matter if we get all that stuff right, and we get climate change wrong,” Stimpson said. “The one thing you dropped from the priority list of the new strategic plan was climate change, what were you thinking?”

Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott said Stimpson’s

comments surprised him because Stimpson is the chair of the Environmental Advisory Board.

“The answer to what we are doing is that we have an environmental advisory board,” DeMott said.

DeMott said Westminster has a sustainability office to see what the city can do SEE CLIMATE, P3

Diana DeGette and other lawmakers grill oil executives

BY CAITLYN KIM COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO

He’s learned to rip the postpepperoni top off the pizza box and recycle the rest. And Priola’s doubled down on recycling by being a co-prime sponsor on one of the most ambitious recent attempts at improving Colorado’s abysmal recycling rates.

In Washington, it was a contentious time on Capitol Hill April 6, as six oil and gas executives faced questions from lawmakers about the high cost of gasoline.

Democrats focused on the fact companies are making record profits, while Republicans took aim at President Joe Biden’s energy policies.

Colorado Congresswoman Diana DeGette chairs the House Energy and Commerce Committee’s oversight panel, which held the hearing.

She said high gas prices are constraining “constituents’ budgets and their patience.”

As she spoke, DeGette displayed a chart behind her showing the price of crude oil going up and down, even as the price of gas has risen and stayed high, despite crude prices starting to drop.

Advocates want to create a statewide recycling program And charge companies to do it

BY MICHAEL BOOTH AND JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

State Sen. Kevin Priola had his recycling epiphany while staring at

an empty pizza box.

The grease stains on the lid spelled it out for the Henderson Republican: Colorado recycles only about 15% of its waste because recycling is too hard. Even a dedicated recycler like Priola was surprised to learn that cardboard with food stains is not welcome in the paper bin.

Northglenn council approves vacancy process

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Northglenn City Councilors will take two months to select a temporary replacement for an outgoing councilor, they said March 21.

Northglenn City Councilor Julie Duran Mullica announced her resignation during the a Feb. 28 meeting, noting that she is moving to Thornton.

The council chose to continue with an appointment process over a special election at a March 21 study session. Councilor Nicholas Walker voiced support for a special election.

“I support the election process to let the people speak,” he said.

RECYCLING FROM PAGE 1

Priola and two Democrats are leading the “Producers Responsibility” bill in the legislature, which would require the companies whose brand is on the packaging to charge themselves a fee to fund improved local recycling services across Colorado.

Cities or counties without their own recycling services could take the fees to start up a program. Places like Denver or Boulder who run or contract for extensive recycling could use the fees to expand — many apartment dwellers don’t get recycling services, for example. Or they

Mayor Meredith Leighty said she understood Walker’s concerns, but as someone who went through the application process, she thinks councilors have done a thorough job to make the process fair.

She also noted the appointed councilor would serve a shortened term, which is another reason she supported the appointment process. The cost of a special election would have been around $37,300, according to the meeting’s agenda.

The appointment process will take over two months to complete. Postcards were sent to residents of Ward 3 notifying them of the vacancy process between March 24-28. Residents can submit resumes April 4-15 electronically,

through the mail or in-person. The application includes seven detailed questions and requests supplemental information such as a resume.

Applications are due April 15 by 4:30 p.m.. Then, the council will interview applicants at a study session on May 2 with 20 minutes allotted for each interview.

The council is scheduled to appoint an individual to fill the Ward 3 vacancy at the May 9 meeting unless more time is needed. In that case, the meeting will carry over to May 21.

could turn recycling programs over to nonprofits and private companies likely to enter the market.

Giving recycling access to all Colorado consumers and making the sort-and-return systems easier to use would cut deeply into trash across the state, Priola said.

“If you can get 60, 70, 80% of the people to start doing the right thing, that’ll mean less resources being wasted. Less water being wasted.

Less air pollution. A more vibrant local economy,” he said.

One reason a Republican like Priola got on board was the effort to be business-friendly: Recycling advocates say a steadier stream of packaging materials like aluminum, glass and cardboard will eventu-

ally ease the supply chain woes and inflation plaguing many American companies.

Also, the businesses creating and delivering packaging are in charge of the proposed program. House Bill 1355 would create an industry council to study how much money is needed for a statewide recycling plan and would let the council set the rates needed to raise that money.

“So many of these businesses are getting hit with real disruptions in their ability to get materials, which is directly connected to the fact that we’re throwing so many materials away,” said Kate Bailey, research and policy director at the nonprofit recycler Eco-Cycle.

Businesses who use lots of packaging have gone along with similar programs in Canada and a couple of U.S. states, Bailey said, proving a comprehensive, producer-funded system can work. Businesses with less than $5 million in revenue will be exempt. And closer to home, Bailey said, putting all paint recycling in Colorado under a similar duesfunded nonprofit called Paint Care has increased paint recycling while saving local governments money.

It’s possible the bill is a nohoper this late in a session already crammed with complex issues like how to refund surplus revenue to taxpayers and how to regulate toxic emissions. Advocates, including cities such as Westminster and nonprof-

Thornton’s Process The city of Thornton had a much quicker process filing the recent vacancy after former city coun-

cilor Jacque Phillips was voted off.

Phillips had purchased a second home in Alamosa. Thornton’s timeline was less than thirty days, and Thornton City Council voted 4-3 to approve the process while Mayor Jan Kulmann was absent from the vote.

Thornton City Clerk Kristen Rosenbaum presented the timeline to council at a special council meeting, citing the charter.

“A vacancy in the office of councilmember shall be filled in accordance with the requirements of section 4.5(b) of the City Charter, by a majority vote of the members w of the council in the office at the c time within 30 days of the vacancy,” the charter states. c

S its like Eco-Cycle and CoPIRG, expect mofd opposition from small to me- p dium businesses worried about costs t and bureaucracy than from giants c e like Coca-Cola and Molson Coors. b And Gov. Jared Polis has been c wary of increasing costs for Colorado residents and businesses given e recent inflation pressure. m “It will not be a noticeable price increase to consumers,” Priola said t d in introducing the bill, along with co-prime sponsors Rep. Lisa Cutter, D-Morrison, and Sen. Julie Gonzales, i t D-Denver. Advocates say the dues c usually amount to fractions of a penny for each package and result in a steep increases in recycling. Bailey r said average dues in similar Cana- W dian programs are three cents per pound for aluminum cans, with a pound of aluminum making about 30 cans in a pound.

Hearings starting April 7 are likely to be packed with both supporters and business representatives concerned about the potential requirements.

Local governments also plan to raise voices on the bill, many of them in support of a more robust state recycling effort.

“In Clear Creek County and other rural parts of the state, higher costs for recycling services and transportation are forcing hard decisions,” said George Marlin, a Clear Creek County SEE RECYCLING, P8

Aranda draws 24-year sentence in death of pedestrian STAFF REPORT

BRIGHTON -- A 28-year-old man plead guilty to a charge of seconddegree murder in the death of 68-year-old Debra Blanchard and drew a 24-year sentence in the Department of Corrections.

According to a statement from the

within its control, like providing carbon offsets.

“And how can we use electric cars, how can we use solar,” he said.

Sustainability Office According to Andy Le, a spokesperson for the city of Westminster, the City’s Sustainability Office was created five years ago to “create an economically strong, socially vibrant and environmentally healthy community for residents, businesses and partners.”

The office comes with two staff members and they coordinate sustainability efforts across the city’s departments.

So far, $300,000 has been invested in projects and they have been particularly focused on energy, water conservation, sustainable business assistance, improving city environmental operations and making Westminster a more resilient city.

Some past projects installed

17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office, Isaac Aranda drove erratically through the City of Northglenn 15 months ago, such that drivers had to make maneuvers to avoid the vehicle. Aranda struck a vehicle, reversed, struck the vehicle a second time, then left the area.

Shortly after that, Aranda hit and

killed Blanchard as she was walking on the sidewalk on the opposite side of the street. Aranda fled the area again, but officers arrested him.

District Attorney Brian Mason announced the plea and the sentence April 4.

“This tragedy was entirely avoidable. The defendant’s egregious be-

havior caused the death of a 68-yearold woman who was simply walking on a Northglenn sidewalk in the middle of the day,” Mason said in the statement. “I hope the victim’s family can find some solace in this conclusion and that the defendant has time to consider the pain he’s caused.”

solar panels on four city facilities provided grants to help businesses conserve water and provided lowcost trees for residents to increase shade, beautify neighborhoods and more.

According to Le, by the end of 2022, 60% of the electricity used for city facilities will be from community solar, and later in 2022, the city will start a comprehensive fleet electrification program to transition vehicles from gas to electric where feasible.

As well, Westminster completed a Sustainability Plan in 2021 with ambitious goals such as having 100% renewable electricity, 100% of residents living within a 10-minute walk of a park, 100% electric vehicles and 100% energy-efficient, healthy homes.

These goals do not have a deadline, however.

Northglenn and Adams County on joining forces with a solar co-op to help residents purchase solar panels.

For folks who express interest in solar on their homes, they would join the co-op and together, will send out a bid to solar contractors.

Since it is a group of people, the contracts usually come back at a lower cost, he said.

“We’re saving residents money, improving the environment because you’re not using as much coal-fired power plant electricity, and the co-op also brings people together in kind of a community

gathering,” he said.

The office also launched SAGE (Save, Act, Grow, Earn) one year ago, which is a sustainable business program to help local businesses save money while helping the environment. He said the program helps owners learn about rebates and programs Xcel Energy and the city provides.

An example he provided was when the state legislature passed a law mandating all businesses over 50,000 square feet must report their energy usage. SAGE and the

Sweet Bloom named top coffee shop in Colorado

From the first blooms of an elegant, fragrant white flower to the final ‘bloom’ of hot water hitting fresh grounds, each step of producing coffee drew Eric Yochim in after he bought Two Rivers Coffee in Arvada.

“It was a very romantic thing,” Yochim, the owner of the Sweet Bloom coffee shop in Westminster, said.

Two Rivers Coffee then became Sweet Bloom after a merger with Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters. On March 20th, 2021, Yochim and his business partner Andy Sprenger opened up a second location in the new Westminster downtown.

Less than a year after the opening, Food and Wine magazine named the location Colorado’s Top Coffee Shop on March 11, 2022 “For us to be named number one in Colorado is pretty awesome because we’re named number one amongst a lot of other, I would say, number ones that very, very much deserve that sort of recognition as well,” he said.

The recognition didn’t come easy, as the industry remains complicated to navigate. Yochim comes from extensive experience in hospitality and a background in wine, and was surprised to learn that coffee is much more complex than wine.

Not only complex, but he sees connections between people at every stage of the process, from growing, producing, roasting, to brewing.

He hopes to mimic the supply chain connections to community ones.

“It’s a really beautiful way to connect every culture around the world,” he said. “It brings people together.”

Neutral territory In the past year, he has seen an influx of customers and many of those customers have been city officials, including city councilors. He hopes Sweet Bloom will be a place to talk over contentious issues.

“Coffee is a neutral territory,” he

said.

He compared a regular coffee shop to other places of gathering and said it’s more inclusive. For example, a bar usually operates at night and a patron has to be 21. At a coffee shop, fewer barriers means more inclusivity.

And as the coffee patrons benefit his business, Yochim wants that to be mutual.

“We hope that our community benefits from us in a way that we provide space that makes you feel welcome,” he said.

To extend that community involvement, he hopes to team up with the new Tattered Cover bookstore down the street to provide a hub for community conversations.

Personal and Private Coming into the space, insanely high ceilings covered the shop and the challenge of creating both intimate and open spaces stood before Yochim and Sprenger.

Therefore, arches were built to bring eye level down, booths formed for intimate meeting spots and large tables to host groups of people.

The architecture, Yochim said, aims to accommodate the different types of guests’ goals, such as studying, chatting or working.

With construction experience in his back pocket, Yochim actually helped the contractor build the site.

Shop Local Yochim noted that although national chains like Starbucks do offer benefits like providing community spaces, they lack the value of human connection.

Local shop owners know their regulars and can meet new community members and know the ongoings of the community. They care about what happens and it sparks critical dialogue about news in the community, he said.

“There’s a value in the human connection with a local organization because you feel more invested, in that you feel like you can be a part of (the community’s) success and they be a part of your success,” he said.

Brighton agrees to Bird Scooters

BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Brighton residents will get to scoot around town on Bird Scooters, councilors agreed on April 5, as soon as the city can decide just where the 15-miles-per-hour rentable electric vehicles will be allowed.

Public Works Director Michael Woodruff said his next job would be working with the company to create zones where the electric scooters can be ridden at their top speed, which areas where they will automatically slow down and where they’ll be banned from going.

“The Department of Public Works and the police department staff recommend the approval of this ordinance,” Woodruff said. “It clearly defines the rules, regulations and licensing of the devices in the city.”

Councilors approved using the scooters by a vote of 7-1 with Councilors Mary Ellen Pollack absent from the discussion. Pollack was the only councilor to speak out against the idea of allowing the scooters at the council’s March 8 meeting.

Councilor Jan Pawlowski cast the sold no vote at the April 5 meeting, saying she was not convinced they were a good fit for Brighton.

“My daughter and son in law are bikers, and when I was talking to them about this they were not very happy about it,” Pawlowski said.

She said they bike in places where there must share trails with the scooters.

“But they pass them and don’t yell

out right or left when they pass and they scare bicyclists to death,” she said.

Woodruff said the scooter drivers would be expected to keep the the right around bicycles and to yield the right of way.

“But that said, it is a little hard to govern rider or driver behavior in the ordinance,” Woodruff said. “the company generally does a decent job of educating riders, but you are always going to have those out there, just like an automobile, that fail to obey the law.”

City Councilors first discussed the idea at their March 8 meeting, with most agreeing that the scooters could be welcome on Brighton’s streets.

Bird provides two-wheeled electric scooters people can rent for $1 or more per minute via an app on their smartphones, and the company estimates the average ride costs about $5. The scooters can reach speeds of up to 15 miles per hour and about 30 miles — roughly two days’ worth of service — on a standard electrical charge. Each scooter is equipped with brakes, front and rear LED lights and each weighs about 45 pounds.

Riders activate the scooters via an app on their phone and then can use them to ride as long as they choose.

When they are done, they park the scooters, take a picture with the app on their phone and leave the scooters. The vehicle then waits for the next rider or is moved, recharged or repaired by Bird’s designated Fleet Managers.

Bird current offers its services in

Denver, Aurora, Littleton and Arvada in the Metro Denver area. It offered its services in Fort Collins until last spring, when the city brought in a different e-bike and e-scooter program called Spin.

The company will likely deploy between 100 and 150 bird scooters in neighborhoods the city would approve, providing two local employees to keep track of the fleet. The company’s plan call for having Brighton online with the scooters by July.

Brighton rules The City will develop zones throughout Brighton that dictate how the GPS-enabled scooters operate, Woodruff said. Upon entering a designated “slow” zone, the scooter would make a noise to warn the driver and then slow down. Upon entering a designated “no-ride” zone, the scooter would beep and then come to a slow stop. Drivers would be directed to a parking zone where they could leave their rented scooter and would have to provide picture proof show-

ing that their scooter has been parked upright and properly before the app would consider their ride complete and stop charging them.

The scooters would be regulated like bicycles and could be used on roads, paths and in bike lanes. Scooters must be parked out of the way of pedestrians and may not block driveways. Riders are required to be at least 18 years of age but won’t be required to wear a helmet.

According to the city’s ordinance, Bird will pay the city a $500 fee to license each scooter and then $200 per year to renew each license. The company will also pay a fee of 20 cents per ride.

A staff of two local Bird employees will work to keep track of the fleet, maintaining them and moving them when they have been parked improperly. Woodruff said the city reserves the right to collect and move the scooters if the Bird staff does not act quickly enough and will charge the company an additional $100 each time that happens.

Democrats plan to reduce paid family leave fees for 6 months Polis, state party face election-year pressure

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

One of the most expensive proposals from Gov. Jared Polis and Democrats in the Colorado legislature this year aimed at driving down the cost of living involves the state’s new paid family leave program.

But the business community, which would benefit from the effort, says the amount of relief is so small and so short-lived that it won’t have a measurable effect.

House Bill 1305 would, for six months, reduce the fee split between employers and employees that the state will charge starting next year as part of Colorado’s new, voterapproved paid family and parental leave program.

The reduction would drop the fee rate to 0.81% of an employees’ wages from 0.9%, a decrease of 0.09 percentage points. For a worker making $4,000 a month, that would drop the fee to $32.40 from $36 a month. Employers pay half the fee; employees pay the other half.

Business groups say the change won’t really make a difference for them or their employees — “It’s really a pittance,” said Tony Gagliardi, who leads the Colorado branch of the National Federation of Independent Businesses — though nonpartisan fiscal analysts say the reduction

Gov. Jared Polis addresses the crowd at the Feb. 16 meet-and-greet in Arvada.

would cost the state $57.5 million to backfill the lost revenue.

Polis and Democrats, who are facing election-year pressure over the rising cost of living, have set aside $157 million in the fiscal year 2022-23 budget, which begins July 1, for government fee relief. The money will also go toward delaying the start of a new 2-cent-per-gallon gas fee and reducing medical licensure and certification fees.

Polis and House Speaker Alec Garnett, D-Denver, celebrated the fee-reduction efforts in their speeches kicking off the 2022 lawmaking session. Both said that cutting costs for Coloradans is a

priority for them this year.

“The governor wants to provide the maximum support possible under state law to benefit small businesses and hardworking Coloradans,” spokesman Conor Cahill said in a written statement.

But Republicans have criticized the efforts as being too small to make a difference. (The $157 million, divided among the state’s 5.8 million residents, comes out to about $27 per person.) The GOP has also pointed out that Democrats are offering relief from fees they implemented.

“I’ve lost track of the number of fee increases the majority Democrats have passed,” said Rep. Kevin Van Winkle, a Highlands Ranch Republican. “And now they come here today and say that they’re offering fee relief? It’s absurd.”

Democrats acknowledge that the fee relief package is not a silver bullet. Senate President Steve Fenberg, D-Boulder, said affordability issues and inflation are “much larger than just what the state legislature can solve.”

“We’re thinking about what is within our control as a legislature and where do we have the ability to provide some relief,” he said. “We’re not going to be able to change everything for every family, but there are things that are within our control.

It’s not going to be life-changing for

people, but people need relief wherever they can (get) it, and we think these are the areas where the state can afford to bear that burden.”

The governor’s office said the paid family and parental leave fee relief was limited in scope as to not run afoul of a state law requiring that no more than 10% of an enterprise’s funds may come from the general fund. The paid leave program is set up as an enterprise.

The legislature is also set to allocate at least $600 million to buy down the $1 billion debt owed to the federal government through Colorado’s unemployment insurance trust fund, which was drained during the pandemic. Businesses and employers would otherwise be responsible for covering the deficit through a paycheck surcharge.

A bill allocating money to buy down the unemployment trust fund debt has yet to be introduced.

The legislature’s Joint Budget Committee also set aside $200 million for a forthcoming property tax relief effort. Lawmakers aren’t sure what that will look like yet — or whether it will happen. Conversations around property tax relief are heating up after the full legislature began debating the budget last week.

Critics of the scope of the relief package say if lawmakers really wanted to help businesses and Coloradans contend with rising costs they would delay the implementation of the new paid family and parental leave program and the new transportation fees.

“There are inherent problems that come with adopting governmentrun programs that are responsive to mandates rather than economic realities, we are beginning to see these problems surface,” said Mike Kopp, president and CEO of Colorado Concern, an alliance of business leaders.

But Democrats argue that isn’t unfeasible.

“We can’t miss our climate goals,” said Sen. Faith Winter, a Westminster Democrat who championed the policies implementing new transportation and paid family and SEE LEGISLATURE, P7

Legislature moves to adopt its first parental leave policy More and more Colorado lawmakers have babies When state Sen. Brittany Pettersen gave birth to her son, Davis, during the 2020 lawmaking term, the only way the Lakewood Democrat could take time off and avoid being docked pay was to have her pregnancy deemed a “long-term illness.”

That’s because the statutes governing the legislature dictate that a lawmaker who misses more than a third of the 120-day session should have their salaries reduced unless the Senate president or House speaker designates their absence as being due to a chronic illness.

“It’s obvious that these laws were not set up for women in the legislature,” Pettersen said.

The birth of Davis and the ar-

rival of several other legislators’ children over the past three years has prompted the Democratic majority to pursue changes to the General Assembly’s outdated leave policies.

Senate Bill 184, introduced last week at the Capitol, would automatically grant 12 weeks of paid parental leave to lawmakers, plus an additional four paid weeks for lawmakers who have pregnancy or childbirth complications.

The measure would also no longer limit the Senate president and House speaker to using the “long-term illness” standard when granting lawmakers paid leave longer than a third of the legislative session.

of Senate Bill 184 alongside Pettersen. “I think we need to make sure that we don’t have barriers, either intentionally or unintentionally, that keep people from being able to run for office.”

Fenberg’s wife had the couple’s first child five days before the start of the 2020 lawmaking term. He opted not to take time off and as a result “was like a zombie for probably the first half of session” that year.

“It’s tough,” he said.

Some have questioned whether lawmakers should be able to miss extended periods given that it may mean their constituents are without representation at the Capitol while they are on leave.

But Fenberg points out that being absent from the legislature doesn’t mean a lawmaker isn’t working.

And the fact is that getting pregnant carries a degree of uncertainty.

“You don’t get to decide exactly when it’s gonna happen,” Fenberg

said.

House Majority Leader Daneya Esgar, a Pueblo Democrat, had a baby, Marlo, in July 2021. She, too, knows how difficult it can be to balance work at the Capitol and trying to take care of a newborn, even when the legislature isn’t in session.

“When you have a legislature that is citizen-led, there are people that live outside of this building,” she said. “We’re not career politicians here. If someone gets pregnant or if their spouse gets pregnant, they deserve the ability to have time off with their families after their child is born just like anyone else.”

“If the price of gas is driven by the global market, why is the price of oil coming down but the price at the pump is still near record highs? If it’s an issue of supply and demand, wouldn’t that be reflected in the global price of oil as well?”

DeGette asked. “Something doesn’t add up.”

Oil executives and Democrats, including DeGette, spar over the reason why prices are so high The oil executives argued it’s not as simple as comparing global prices on any given day to gas station prices.

“Oil that’s entering a refinery could have been purchased at a higher price, and therefore that price then flows through all the way to the station. It’s not necessarily an instantaneous market,” explained David Lawler, head of BP America.

Chevron CEO Michael Wirth added, “these things do correlate over the long term but in the short term, they don’t always go up and down.”

But many Democrats questioned whether companies are giving the full picture about the ongoing high prices.

“While I understand that you simply cannot flip the switch or turn on the spigot, you must be honest about the main reason that some companies are choosing to ramp up

sustainability office will help those businesses report the data.

As well, Schmiechen and the office want to make Westminster a more resilient city.

“How do people and neighborhoods respond to manmade and natural problems?” he said.

In regards to the Marshal Fire, the office is brainstorming with the fire department about what the city can do to prepare for future fires and what information can be sent out to residents.

For heatwaves, he wants to help educate residents about the resources available to cool off and what to do during poor

production slowly,” said Democratic Rep. Debbie Dingell. “A survey of oil company executives by the Dallas Federal Reserve found that nearly 60 percent of oil companies are restraining growth because of investor pressure.”

The oil executives did acknowledge that their companies earned billions last year, after losing billions in 2020 when the pandemic tanked demand. And many of the CEOs said they would not stop paying stock dividends or pursuing buybacks this year.

They also pushed back on the accusation of price gouging, noting many of the companies did not own the gas stations.

“I want to be absolutely clear: We do not control the market price of crude oil or natural gas, nor of refined products like gasoline and diesel fuel, and we have no tolerance for price gouging,” Wirth said during his opening remarks.

Meanwhile, Republicans try to take advantage of what they see as midterm elections talking point Republicans dismissed this line of questioning from Democrats. Ranking member Rep. Morgan Griffith used part of his time to ask if oil companies were taking advantage of the situation in Ukraine to keep prices artificially high. The oil executives all said no.

Energy and Commerce Committee Ranking Cathy McMorris Rodgers described the hearing as “a distraction.”

“Today is purely political. Presi-

air quality days.

In the future, he said the office hopes to work with neighborhood groups and residents directly to see what they are interested in doing regarding sustainability, aiding their efforts and helping low-income residents, he said.

Is it enough?

Carol Campbell, a Westminster resident and an Environmental Protection Agency employee, does not think the city council is doing enough.

“I’m not convinced (council) has a really strong focus on sustainability,” she said.

After the council’s strategic plan meetings, she thinks the city is going in the wrong direction.

One issue she thinks the council acted wrongly on was

dent Biden needs cover for his war on American energy,” she said in her opening statement.

Republicans also see a political advantage in energy prices, believing it’s an issue that could hurt Democrats entering the midterm elections. They used their time to talk about the Biden Administration’s moratorium on new drilling leases on federal lands and regulations they claim impede production.

“Does this whole mountain of red tape by President [Biden] make it harder for you to produce more energy in America?” Rep. Steve Scalise asked.

Most of the oil executives said yes.

Republicans also criticized Democrats’ focus on expanding America’s supply of green energy, arguing it has resulted in less investment in fossil fuel production.

DeGette said this debate around more drilling and more lease sales indicates to her that the country needs a long-term energy plan.

“The things that Republicans were suggesting — more permitting, more pipelines, “drill, baby drill” — the executives told me when I talked to them before the hearing today, there is no switch to flip. It’s not like any of those things would help us get more supply today,” she said.

She said the people who could were the executives testifying and they “refused to say what they would do.”

Executives maintain that gas prices are complex, but DeGette argues they could take a cut in profits

lowering the water rates. She sees the reduction in water rates as a hit to conservation efforts. “(Council) doesn’t make a connection between water and climate,” she said, and pointed to the current drought.

She would like to see a funded climate lobbyist for state and federal government, electrify the city’s auto fleet, xeriscape city hall’s grass plot and more conservation programs like grass buybacks.

Max Boykoff, a Professor & Chair, Department of Environmental Studies at CU Boulder, has recommended policies to help households switch over to heat pumps, commitments to tree planting and a carbon tax to help fund environmental initiatives and steer folks away from carbon.

to reduce prices If there was a theme that the oil executives tried to emphasize — when they got a chance to answer more than a yes or no during the questioning — it was that gas pricing is complex.

“Demand has recovered and is now surpassing pre-pandemic levels for many transportation fuels,” Chevron President Gretchen Watkins noted in her written testimony.

“But refinery throughput has not yet caught up with the post-pandemic surge in demand. The loss of Russian supply from the global market has only added pressure on an already strained refining industry that has yet to fully catch up with increasing demand.”

There have been a number of proposals on both sides of the aisle floated to help reduce the price of oil, from a windfall tax for these producers to a gas tax holiday to easing the regulatory burden.

DeGette asked the executives to go back to their boards and see what they could do to reduce prices at the pumps now, even if it meant a smaller profit for them.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said last week that her caucus wanted to wait and hear what the oil executives had to say before moving forward on any legislation.

Westminster council to increase focus on homelessness

A

s part of their 2022 Strategic Plan, the council is increasing its attention and support to addressing homelessness.

As most of us have CROSS observed, it is on the increase in WestCURRENTS minster just like the other first ring Denver suburbs.

It isn’t going away and more than just county governments must step up and do their part.

There is enough Bill Christopher news and strategies being tested across the region to remind us that there is not a single “Silver Bullet” to solve the homeless problem.

The upcoming Memorandum of Understanding being developed

Hyland Hills board member acknowledges conflict of interest Current Hyland Hills Board member Don Ciancio Jr. has filed a statement with the Secretary of State’s Office acknowledging a potential conflict of interest. He did so in 2018 for his first term on the board and then again recently in March for the upcoming four years if he is elected.

This relates to his employment as a long-term key employee of Westminster Public Schools.

However, he voted as a Hyland Hills Board member to sell the Perl Mack Center to Westminster Public Schools at a price considerably below appraised value. It would appear to many that he had a conflict of interest when voting in support of the sale

by Hyland Hills.

He will be in charge of any remodeling or expansion done to the facility by the school district. Remember, the Hyland Hills Board on a 4-1 vote sold

ous, overreaching actions will be launched. It is obvious to many that the north area is much in need of a regional overnight shelter to provide safe, out-of-the-weather sleeping facilities along with kitchen facilities for hot meals.

While it begs of NIMBYism, it is something that Adams County officials cannot ignore any longer. I am encouraged that the public will start seeing some incremental results in housing at least a portion of our homeless population.

Westminster could stand to amend its homeless action items by including support for food insecurity.

The need for basic food is going to continue to be a reality and food banks need help. Adams County local governments have helped support the food banks using federal money.

However, the need extends beyond the availability of federal pandemic money.

the Perl Mack facility at $800,000-$1.2 million less than appraised value.

Also, with this sale, there will not be a swimming pool in the future in the southeast part of the Hyland Hills District for the public to use.

Is this action in the best interest of Hyland Hills constituents? Not hardly.

A key argument I heard to sell the building is that it always loses money. Recreation programs and a swimming pool operation do not make a profit or even break even. I know this to be a fact-based on my experience with City of Westminster recreation facilities and swimming pools like the Swim & Fitness Center, City Park Recreation Center and the Countryside Rec Center and swimming pool. Such programming is for the enjoyment and benefit of the public with subsidies coming from the organization’s general fund.

Climate change a concern for the whole state

W

e are County Commissioners from two different parts of the state, equally impacted by climate change. In Adams County on the front range, wildfires GUEST are now a year-round COLUMN threat. In San Miguel Emma Pinter County on the rural Lance Waring western slope, the extended “mega drought” threatens our agricultural and tourism-based economy due to erratic and decreasing snowfall and other extreme weather events.

Our citizens are experiencing dangerously smoky skies, increased fire risk, and water shortages. There are many sources of carbon emissions in Colorado. One we can remedy is methane pollution from abandoned, dormant, and low-producing oil and gas wells.

Adams County has the dubious distinction of having the most abandoned and orphaned wells and well sites of any county in the state. Orphaned wells that irresponsible operators have simply walked away from, and where ownership is unknown, burden the state with the responsibility to properly plug and clean up the toxic sites. On the Western Slope, many orphaned wells are on federal lands and also subject to inadequate protections from abandonment.

Fortunately, the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) recently took an important step toward fighting climate change

with the passage of new financial assurance rules. The rules will guarantee there is enough money to properly plug low-producing and orphaned oil and gas wells statewide. These measures add an annual “well fee” intended to raise $10 million a year to fund a state-sponsored well plugging program that addresses the impacts of abandoned wells from defunct operators. It also includes necessary bond increases for low-producing wells and incentives for operators to plug old wells. These new protections will also apply to wells on federal lands.

This is very good news because wells that are low producing or have been left unattended by past operators are a significant source of planet-warming emissions. If not plugged, they contribute methane and other toxic chemicals to our air, water, and soil. Methane is one of the most potent greenhouse gasses — over twenty-five times stronger than carbon dioxide —and therefore has an outsized influence on our warming climate.

The new rules come not a moment too soon. Currently, there are between 820 and 860 orphaned wells in Colorado and another 20,000 or more low-producing or “zombie” wells. The wells, and the associated wellsites with their abandoned production facilities, tanks, equipment and flowlines, together contribute dangerously and unnecessarily to climate change.

With cleaner energy technologies, improved conservation measures, and

increases in electric vehicle availability, we can expect declines in oil and gas demand in the near future. Along with that shift, we can anticipate an increase in orphan wells.

We appreciate that the COGCC has set up a long-term plan that incentivizes the oil and gas industry to properly plug wells through bonding and other financial assurances.

Further, the new rules enable local governments to petition the COGCC to require operators to plug and clean up or close low-producing wells that pose significant risks to the health and safety of residents of our communities. As elected officials governing counties impacted by emissions caused by irresponsible operators, this is an important aspect of the rule for us. We are encouraged by the inclusion of assurances for wells on both private lands and public lands.

We are also pleased that equity is intertwined into the new rules, with operators now required to prioritize communities that are disproportionately impacted by oil and gas activities in their plans.

We commend the COGCC for adopting these rules which are now some of the strongest in the country. This bold action takes a significant step toward decreasing greenhouse gas emissions and protecting the health of all Coloradans.

Longmont is smart to waive fees on tiny homes village Cities, counties and states are struggling with ways to achieve so-called affordable housing. This is nothing new. However, I read last week that the Longmont City Council unanimously waived development fees for a proposed tiny home village.

More specifically, the village is for homeless veterans. The fees amount to $189,582 which is not a do or die situation for the city government.

However, in this case, the dollar amount meant the difference in whether the 26 tiny homes could go forward. More city and county governments need to think like Longmont not only about the waiver of costs imposed by the local government but also about the variety of housing types allowed. Let’s quit thinking everyone who is homeless or poor or low-income must-have apartments built for them. Let’s think outside the box!

It is Election Day and we will be choosing two Board of Directors’ members to guide the District in the coming years.

In these days of tight budgets and escalating costs, we need very experienced people to ensure that the day-to-day operations of our fire and EMS services perform to our expectations and are not compromised.

I strongly urge the residents of the District to give your support, and your votes, to Richard Miller and Peter Billera. Richard and Peter are incumbents and are two

of three District residents running for this office. Both have given to this District for the past four years and are well deserving of another term.

As current Board members, both are well-versed in its day-to-day operations and experienced in the ways a Fire District should be run.

They command and receive the respect of both Department staff and “rank and file” members. In addition, their attendance record at prior Board meetings is impeccable.

Their input on Board and District matters is uncompromising and professional. They receive complete respect from the other Board members. Their input is sought on every Agenda item brought to this Board and they bring enthusiasm to their Board actions.

As incumbent Fire District Board members, and residents of both Broomfield and our Fire District, I strongly support both and urge my fellow residents to give them your support on May 3rd.

Your vote is very important, and I ask that you give it to Richard Miller and Peter Billera.

Trust-building at its best I understand that the city council has already scheduled another

listening session in May. Look for details on the city’s website.

The idea for these listening sessions came from last year’s mayor/ council campaigns when candidates heard from citizens that they were not being heard by city officials.

Kudos go to Mayor McNally and Council for creating this avenue for public input in a more informal environment. The previous city council and city manager failed to offer such clear communication opportunities. This is a meaningful step in the right direction to rebuild trust between the citizens and its elected city officials.

Jayhawks are National Champs I simply cannot keep quiet on the Jayhawks’ victory. It’s been a long dry spell for my Kansas Jayhawks.

I am Kansas proud! Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

Trump’s phone log is reminiscent of Nixon’s missing 17 minutes When it was reported that thenPresident Trump’s January 6 telephone records were blank during the attack on the nation’s Capitol, I immediately thought of former President Nixon and his Watergate recording incident.

Trump’s gap in his telephone logs covered approximately seven hours while Nixon’s office recording system had a gap of 17 minutes. While the length of time and the communications devices are different, the fundamental concern is the same.

Both Presidents were attempting to hide damning information from the public that they knew would be damaging to them respectively. Such antics are trust-busters!

With all seven city councilors present with over 100 people in attendance at Westview Recreation Center plus people observing virtually, the opportunity was provided to citizens to ask direct questions of the council.

This was a first. It was not a presentation by staff. It was not interactive with questions and answers in the meeting. It was a listening session by the council to hear directly from the public. Citizens from all across Westminster were present and participated. Key topics included homelessness, water supply, law enforcement issues and global warming topics.

Hobby takes hold across Denver metro area and beyond

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

B

eekeeping has seen its popularity grow in many places across the country in recent years, and the Denver metro area is no exception.

From community gardens to backyard hives, more and more people are keeping honey bees and often selling the luscious, golden liquid reward that comes from this hip hobby.

Honey bees have become the main beneficiaries of the “save the bees” movement. According to researchers, there are around 25,000 different types of bees, but for obvious reasons, the honey bee is the most beneficial for hobbyists to raise. Not native to North America, honey bees came to the continent with the earliest Euro-

pean immigrants.

In recent years, a cottage industry has sprung up around honey bees, with several full-service shops in the Denver area offering nascent beekeepers with all of the supplies and advice they would need to start managing their own hives.

But first, new beekeepers might want to consult one of the many educational organizations that exist locally.

The Denver Bee and the Mile High Bee clubs provide support and education to the Front Range beekeeping community, and the Butterfly Pavilion in Westminster offers a Beekeeping Bootcamp, a program with sessions running throughout the year. People can sign up for the whole series or attend individual classes.

Biologist Lorna McCallister manages the Butterfly Pavilion’s hives and serves as the Beekeeping Bootcamp instructor. She said spreading out the course over five sessions allows her to guide students through the entire beekeeping process.

She said the pavilion also has five apiaries — collections of beehives — in community gardens across the metro area. They serve as great educational tools while also helping pollination around the Denver area. Beekeeping Bootcamp is certified through the Colorado Beekeepers Association, which McCallister said allows students who complete the course to become an apprentice beekeeper if they wish to take their hobby to the next level.

Those interested in the program still have time to join.

McCallister said the first class was archived, so catching up via video would be easy and the live bees used in upcoming courses won’t actually be delivered until the end of April.

“Beekeeping is really big in Colorado — especially around Denver,” McCallister said.

In fact, beekeeping has become so popular that some cities have

gotten involved.

Susan Bennett is an environmental interpreter for the City of Wheat Ridge and resident bee expert at Happiness Gardens, a community resource that allows gardening enthusiasts to register for full- or half-sized plots to grow fruits, vegetables and flowers. As a “science nerd,” Bennett said she loves practically everything about the buzzing insects.

Some conservationists have recently begun questioning whether the proliferation of honey bees might in fact be harmful to native bee populations that have to compete for resources with an ever-increasing honey bee population.

Bennett said there are many scientific papers on the subject, and she’s keeping an eye on them to see what is ultimately discovered.

But for now, she thinks adhering to best practices can go a long SEE BUZZ, P13

Enter “Kinky Boots,” featuring a book by Harvey Fierstein and music and lyrics by legendary pop star Cyndi Lauper, which gives audiClarke Reader ences the story of two people brought together out of the desire to make something new and better.

Now that story is closing out the Arvada Center’s 2021-2022 season.

“The show is based on a true story with a lot of comedy as well as some drama,” said Tim Howard, one of the two leads in the production. “It’s about who you are, accepting who others are and the journey you have to take to find those truths.”

Directed by Rod A. Lansberry, “Kinky Boots” runs at the center’s Main Stage Theatre, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., through Sunday, April 24. Performances are at 7:30 p.m.

Tuesday through Saturday, 1 p.m.

Wednesday and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

The show tells the story of Charlie Price (Howard), a factory owner striving to keep his family shoe business afloat by finding a way to change up the product. Then he meets drag queen Lola (David Kaverman) — and the fabulous Angels — and discovers another approach to the business.

The cast includes Abigail Kochevar, Mairys Joaquin, Saël Charles and Heather Lacy.

“When I first heard about it, I just wanted to be a part of the show and I got my dream role,” Howard said.

“The cast is one of the best I’ve worked with. There’s no negativity — everyone is just really happy

to be there and have the energy of performing again.”

Like so many actors who had to practice their craft via livestreams or recordings, Howard said the power of performing for an audience has never been more evident.

Getting the energy from the cheering - and dancing - crowd adds an extra level of meaning to every time they step on the stage, especially with a show as uplifting as this one.

“It feels good to say it’s okay to not know who you are right now — someone will accept you for who you are,” he said. “I think audiences will come away with a new perspective on life. If you had a rough day, that will all be in the past, which is how theater should be.”

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — MICHELLE at the Global Hall We’re only a quarter of the way into 2022, but New York’s MICHELLE has already released easily one of the year’s best albums. The group — featuring Sofia D’Angelo, Julian Kaufman, Charlie Kilgore, Layla Ku, Emma Lee and Jamee Lockard — dropped “AFTER DINNER WE TALK DREAMS” in March and it’s a luminous collection of dream-pop and R&B. This music doesn’t grab you and shake you, but rather slithers under your skin and gets into your very bones.

The group will be stopping at the Globe Hall, 4483 Logan St. in Denver, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, April 16. MICHELLE’s music will breathe beautifully in an intimate space like the Globe, making it the perfect venue to immerse yourself in their work.

For those who want to participate in the process of contributing to pollination and getting their own supply of honey without the work, fear not. There’s a way to get in on the experience of owning a hive without risking the stings or undertaking the learning curve.

Best Bees is a company with professional beekeepers who will come to a person’s home or office, do the work for them to set up a hive and let them keep the honey.

Noah Wilson-Rich founded the company while pursuing his doctorate in honey bee immunology, and Best Bees now operates in the Denver metro area as well as more than a dozen other cities across the U.S. The company employs more than 50 professional beekeepers who manage hives for corporate and residential clients.

Wilson-Rich said the colony collapse phenomenon that occurred around 2006 raised awareness about the plight of bees.

“By having this beekeeping service that’s connected to research, we’re able to make maps of

people’s home gardens, beehives and rooftop beehives in downtown Denver and Boulder and say ‘OK, where are hot spots for bee health?

Where are bees doing really well?’”

Wilson-Rich said. “And then ask, ‘why? Why is that? What flowers are around there? What’s the pesticide use? What diseases are we seeing?’ So, it’s been a really fun approach. We call it citizen science.”

Wilson-Rich said the data his company collects is helpful in several ways. One is connected to NASA’s Earth observation program that utilizes satellites aimed at Earth to collect information about things like weather patterns and land use. The partnership allows Best Bees to use that data to create maps that factor in things like climate change in relation to the health of their clients’ hive health.

Best Bees also recently launched The Urban Beekeeping Lab, a nonprofit that uses genomics — think 23andMe — to further its mission to improve bee health.

way to benefitting all pollinators.

She said if people are interested in bees, the best thing they can do is plant a native garden that includes plant varieties that will flower through as much of the season as possible.

“If you do something to support the honey bees, it’s probably going to support the native bees too,” Bennett said. “Because the things that you’re going to be doing for honey bees — planting more plants that have a variety of blooming times, reducing your use of pesticides — those things are going to help all of the pollinators.”

She advises people to be aware of pests, such as the varroa destructor mite, which can have a devastating effect on the honey bee population. Another way to be a good steward of the ecosystem is to make sure diseases don’t transfer over to the native bee population.

Colorado business leaders lose optimism about economy

BY TAMARA CHUANG THE COLORADO SUN

No surprise here. Global unrest with the Russian invasion of Ukraine plus ongoing and rising inflation have Colorado business leaders less optimistic about the economy this year than last, according to a new survey.

But has that changed how they’re going about their business?

According to a new analysis by Leeds Business Confidence Index, 55% of the 195 local business leaders surveyed said they expect to raise wages while just 8% plan to reduce staff and 1% plan to cut hours. Nearly half, or 46%, will increase prices or pass costs to consumers because of inflation.

“They’re pessimistic about the (economic) backdrop,” said Rich Wobbekind, senior economist and faculty director of the Leeds Business Research Division at the University of Colorado. “But in their own responses, they’re saying in the next three and six months, we’re going to hire more people, we’re going to invest in more capital. So, they’re still in expansion mode even though they’re concerned about the broader economy.”

Inflation in Colorado, by the way, is projected to increase 7.3% this year and slow to 2.8% next year.

The index measures business leaders’ optimism and above 50 is considered positive. And while most categories are still above 50, including how leaders feel about Colorado’s economy, concerns with global events

and inflation caused the Leeds index to fall to 40.4 for the national economy for second quarter 2022.

Brian Lewandowski, the division’s executive director, said that business leaders tend to be more optimistic about the state’s economy than the nation’s. It’s because they live here and work here, so what’s happening outside the state isn’t as tangible.

“The one thing I would add,” he said, is “the expectation of inflation is almost as bad as actual inflation. And I sort of wonder if the same is true when looking at business confidence.

So, it’s still positive right now, which is a good signal. But if business leaders signal pessimism about the future, if they expect the future to be worse than it is today, then that could have impacts on how they invest and how they hire and how they try and expand their business. So that’s a concern when it drops below 50.”

Colorado hotel workers had highest rate of job quitters Colorado workers may finally be finding the jobs they want — or at least employers are doing their best to retain them — as the national rate of job quitters fell in March and leveled off in Colorado, according to new data from Gusto, a payroll and benefits services company with coheadquarters in Denver.

Colorado’s quit rate in March was at 3.01%, down from 3.03% in February, and nearly half the August high of 5.04%. The national average was 2.85% in March, down from 3.09% in

February and 4.94% in August.

But something else is going on in accommodations, which is essentially the hotel industry. That part of the economy had a 10% quit rate in March, according to Gusto, which can analyze its own customer data to see trends before the national report comes out. Other service industries — including retail and food and beverage — also saw rates higher than Colorado’s overall quit rate of 3.01%, and the U.S. rate of 2.85%.

Gusto’s lead economist Luke Pardue theorizes this type of worker can find another job pretty easily these days. Companies from Amazon to United Airlines are all looking for workers who, at minimum, are pleasant to customers and show up on time.

“These industries where we’re seeing the highest quit rates, we’re also seeing the highest hiring rates,” Pardue said. “This is a sign that workers are really switching jobs within industries for higher pay, for better conditions or better benefits.”

However, he added, “A 10% quit rate in accommodations is not something we have seen (since) quit rates hit 10% in August of 2021, as many workers left seasonal positions as the summer ended. Also, a 10% quit rate is not something we have seen in other sub sectors recently.”

As hotels prepare for warmer weather and more visitors, they are again competing with one another as well as the rest of the hospitality, travel and restaurant industries that are also ramping up for what

they’re hoping to be a more fortuitous season.

The cost of benefits Scanning the help-wanted ads, it’s difficult to find hotel work without some sort of incentive beyond a paycheck.

The Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel offers a $1,000 sign-on bonus to experienced cooks (the gig pays $22 an hour and includes health and retirement plans). Springhill Suites in Denver offered medical and retirement benefits, an RTD pass and a $750 hiring bonus for a room attendant (though that job appears to be filled).

The key here may be to offer benefits in the first place. And they might not be as much as an employer assumes. According to Gallup polling data, replacing a worker costs one half to twice the ex-worker’s salary.

Pardue calculated the cost of replacing versus offering retirement benefits, based on Gusto and Bureau of Labor Statistics data: 1. Retirement benefits reduced quit rates by 1.3 percentage points, or 15.6% for 12 months.

2. A company with 25 workers and 15.6% lower quit rate loses 3.9 fewer workers per year.

3. At an annual salary of $30,000, those 3.9 jobs cost, conservatively, $58,500 to replace.

4. BLS estimates that retirement benefits cost an employer 3.5% of a worker’s salary. For 25 employees, that’s $26,250 a year.

State steps up to help launch careers in early childhood fields

BY ANN SCHIMKE CHALKBEAT COLORADO

Joyful Rothe worked in a nursing home kitchen for 18 years before taking an entry-level job as an aide at a child care center. Shelby Wilson also wants a career working with young children, but for now handles the paperwork for her husband’s log-hauling business.

The two women spend an hour every Monday evening in a secondfloor classroom at Front Range Community College in Fort Collins, cars whizzing by outside as they learn how to talk to children about

So, that’s paying out $26,250 a year versus $58,500.

“On our back-of-the-envelope calculation, the return is more than double the cost of a retirement plan.

feelings, plan learning activities, and handle meltdowns. They are among hundreds of students across Colorado taking advantage of a new state program that pays for two introductory early childhood courses — a stepping stone to teaching in the field.

The initiative, funded with $4 million in federal COVID aid, is part of a state effort to mint more early childhood teachers before the state’s universal preschool launch in 2023, and help the industry recover from staff shortages exacerbated by the pandemic. In addition to the free college classes, the state is fund-

ing apprenticeships, scholarships, training opportunities, mentoring programs, and translation and other support for people from underrepresented groups seeking early childhood careers.

The need for new preschool and child care teachers in Colorado is formidable. State officials estimate that more than 2,000 people — 10% of the workforce — left the field during the last two years. They hope to add back more than 1,000 workers

by June.

Melanie Gilbertson, who teaches the Monday night class, believes the free coursework has been instru-

mental in helping students earn qualifications they might not otherwise have been able to afford.

“You don’t make a lot of money in this field,” she said. “And so to ask somebody to go spend $6,000 on a couple of college courses just doesn’t seem right when they’re going to turn around and only make $15 an hour.”

So, one thing that they actually can do is offer these low-cost or no-cost benefits that aren’t necessarily as expensive as, say, health insurance but have the benefits of retaining and attracting talent,” he said. “Offering, say, retirement benefits might seem like an upfront cost but it has these returns that more than pay for themselves.” After writing about

unemployment, jobs and Colorado’s pandemic economy for two years, I finally got a chance to stop by a real, live job fair. Those in-person career events are not completely back, but at the invitation of United Airlines, I stopped by its event at the United Club at Empower Field at Mile High stadium on Tuesday.

The airline has been desperate for

workers, and I’ve mentioned how they’ve tweaked their benefits in past columns, including bonuses of up to $10,000 and rolling out new starting wages of $19.64 an hour for baggage handlers and customer service representatives.

By the end of the day, 970 people stopped by for the event and 350 left with a job offer.

When he thinks about Tom Robinson, the former associate commissioner of the Colorado High School Activities Association who died April 4, Bert Borgmann said a lot of things come to mind.

“But at the forefront is fairness and mentor,” said Borgmann, who retired as an assistant commissioner with CHSAA at the end of the 2021 school year. “He was one of the fairest men I have ever met. He had a kindness and demeanor that made him special to all who knew him.”

Robinson announced plans to retire at the end of the school year. A statement from CHSAANow.com said Robinson had several diagnoses.

Reaction to the news pf the death of Robinson’s passing was quick and followed the same thought as Skyview High School girls basketball coach Chris Kemm.

“Deeply saddened by this news,” Kemm tweeted. “Tom was a voice of reason, and absolute champion of student-athletes. Never turned away a call or back down from a good debate.”

“I most appreciated Tom’s calm demeanor and ability to take difficult situations and work them in thoughtful ways to get the situation resolved,” said Northglenn athletic director Nick Kosovich. “He always had a positive outlook and always went out of this way to say hello and acknowledge you.”

“Beyond the impact Tom has made in this association, our state and na-

tionally over the course of his 30-plus year career as a coach, teacher, administrator, white hat referee, Hall of Famer, Big 12 replay expert, husband, father and grandfather, we are all better people for having had Tom in our lives,” CHSAA commissioner Rhonda Blanford-Green said in a statement.

Frederick High School athletic director Ty Gordon knew Robinson as a basketball official and as an athletic director.

‘Tom was one of the most kind, caring and kind-hearted people I have had the pleasure to meet and work with,’ Gordon said. “He was an amazing leader and advocate for high school sports across the state of Colorado.”

Helped when someone in need Former Commissioner Bob Ottewill hired Robinson, who was the first African-American administrator in the association’s history. During his time at CHSAA, Robinson was in charge of the officials and was the first administrator to assign a female official to work a boys basketball final four contest, according to CHSAANow.com. He also was in charge of CHSAA’s sportsmanship program plus boys and girls golf.

Eagle Ridge Academy athletic director Zach Henning said Robinson was willing to help when someone was in need.

“When I first started as an athletic director, Tom was always present in our league meetings and would present himself with a smile and kind attitude,” Henning said. “His knowl-

edge of sports and CHSAA bylaws was second to nine. He was someone I could always lean on to give me a straight and honest answer and trust that he had CHSAA’s and my school’s best interests at heart.”

The CHSAANow statement said Robinson “was an institution and a role model at the association and was widely respected throughout the entire membership for his exceptional passion and integrity.”

“Tom was an inspiration in so many ways,” CHSAA assistant commissioner Bethany Brookens said in the statement. “He taught me how to play golf, he and Cleo taught us all how to have a wonderful and successful marriage, he taught me the officials’ mechanics for basketball and he gave me loyal friendship and a respect for all people. An incredible, ethical, good man and mentor; I miss Tom greatly already.”

Inspirational Robinson graduated from Regis Jesuit High School before attending Colorado State University, where he competed in football, basketball and track and field. He began officiating in 1969, the same year he started his teaching career at Regis. He taught math and coached several sports for 31 years before joining CHSAA in 2001.

Robinson also served time as the president of the National Association of Sports Officials and was the replay coordinator of the Big-12 Conference.

“He was an advocate for officials around the state of Colorado and always pushed athletic directors to re-

member the third party of any game, the officials,” Henning said. “He also helped usher in further advances in sportsmanship throughout all athletics and activities in the state.”

“Even from the outside looking in, Tom was definitely a person to aspire to be,” said Rashaan Davis, CHSAA’s first-ever assistant commissioner overseeing activities., in the statement “He always seemed cool, calm and collected, which is something I know I needed. So, to be a staff member now and understand that Tom laid the foundation for me being a black male working at CHSAA and to be an educator coming into this role, to be patient and recognizing all voices at this level is very powerful. I don’t think anybody did it better.

“It feels like standing on the shoulders of a giant and hopefully the work we all do will continue his legacy.”

Survivors include his wife, Cleo Parker-Robinson, founder and director of Cleo Parker-Robinson Dance, and his son, Malik Robinson, executive director of Cleo Parker-Robinson Dance.

“Tom was a true icon at the CHSAA office and will be deeply missed,” Gordon said.

“CHSAA and all the Colorado high schools are better to have known Tom Robinson,” Henning said. “Our community lost a pioneer, a statesman and an amazing administrator.”

“Throughout his life, whether as an official, teacher, CHSAA colleague, he mentored so many people making them better people,” Borgmann said.

“I will miss him greatly.”

Prior to reuse and successive use, ACWWA must obtain a decree quantifying the rate, timing, and location of water available for such reuse and successive use and approving the points of diversion or re-diversion for the water available for such use and successive use. 3.10.7.

Disposition of the Subject Water Right. The Subject Water Right is dedicated to use for augmentation, replacement, and use in ACWWA’s present and future service area, and shall not be sold or leased for a period exceeding five years (“longterm lease”), or otherwise permanently disposed of by ACWWA for uses other than those authorized under this Decree, except under the conditions set forth in the 3173 Decree and paragraph 17.4 of the 306 Decree. ACWWA may also utilize water diverted pursuant to the Subject Water Right to fulfill contractual obligations to other municipalities and water users subject to the following conditions: (a) the contractual obligation exists at the time this Decree is entered; (b) the contractual obligation is met by use of a metered treated water tap supplied by ACWWA; (c) the contractual obligation is of limited duration and is for use in a decreed augmentation plan or in a substitute water supply plan approved by the State Engineer pursuant to C.R.S. § 37-92-308 or successor statutes; or (d) the contractual obligation is pursuant to a water trade agreement whereby ACWWA is obligated to deliver water to a party in return for deliveries by said party to ACWWA of an equivalent amount of water from alternate sources.

3.10.8. Use by ECCV. ACWWA may lease and/or trade water attributable to the Subject Water Right to ECCV for use in ECCV’s augmentation plans and delivery to recharge projects approved in Case Nos. 02CW403 and 02CW404/03CW442, as amended by the 306 Decree, as well as the recharge projects and exchanges decreed in Case No. 16CW3196, including use to replace return flow obligations associated with ECCV’s changed water rights. This water may also be used by ECCV, by lease or trade with ACWWA, pursuant to a subsequent Water Court decree, so long as the Subject Water Right is listed as a source of supply or replacement water in that decree. 4.

The total estimated cost of the Phase II infrastructure is $60 million for an additional 10 million gallons of pumping and treatment capacity. The Booster Pump Stations are approximately $25 million and the NWTP Expansion is approximately $35 million.

ACWWA has purchased an additional 3 million gallons of capacity from these facilities, totaling about $18 million in capital expenditure. 4.5.

Substitute Water Supply Plans. During this diligence period, ACWWA has filed joint substitute water supply plans (“SWSP”) with ECCV in order to use additional replacement supplies to replace out-of-priority depletions from the ACWWA/ECCV Well Field to facilitate the efficient operation of the Water Supply Project. SWSPs were filed in 2014 (approved April 15, 2015), 2015 (approved April 6, 2016), 2016 (approved May 19, 2017), 2017 (approved March 30, 2018), 2018 (approved March 27, 2019), 2019 (approved April 6, 2020), and 2020 (approved April 28, 2021 and April 29, 2021). 4.6. Protection of Water Rights. ACWWA has regularly monitored the filings of other water users. It has filed statements of opposition to, and has incurred legal and engineering costs, in connection with numerous cases to protect its water rights. Legal fees in the amount of $150,000.00 were expended during the diligence period in water rights protection and opposition on behalf of ACWWA for its Flow Project. 4.7. Opposition of Detrimental Legislation. ACWWA has been actively involved in opposing Colorado State legislation that would negatively impact the operation of its augmentation plans and exchanges. 4.8. ACWWA continues to rely upon and develop the conditional water right described herein and has no intent to abandon them. 5. Claim to Make Absolute. During this diligence period, in Water Year 2021, of the 500 acre-feet conditional water right decreed to the Subject Water Right, ACWWA stored water in priority a total of 234.7 acre-feet.

The 265.3 acre-feet not made absolute by this claim remains conditional. Of the 260 cfs diversion rate at decreed for the Subject Water Right, 5.3 cfs has been made absolute, and the 247.7 cfs not made absolute remains conditional. 6.

2022CW3034 CITY OF THORNTON (“Thornton”), c/o Water Resources Division, 12450 Washington Street, Thornton, CO 80241. John P. Justus and Karoline M. Henning, Hoskin Farina & Kampf, P.C., 200 Grand Avenue, Suite 400, Post Office Box 40, Grand Junction, Colorado 81502. APPLICATION FOR SIMPLE CHANGE IN SURFACE POINT OF DIVERSION Pursuant to § 37-92-305(3.5), C.R.S., IN CLEAR CREEK, DENVER, JEFFERSON, ADAMS AND WELD COUNTIES. II. Introduction: Thornton is the owner and claimant of numerous water rights decreed for diversion at the Burlington Ditch Headgate. Through this Application, Thornton seeks to change the decreed point of diversion for the water rights described in this Application under the simple change in surface point of diversion procedures set forth in C.R.S. §37-92305(3.5). The changes in point of diversion sought in this Application are not combined with any other type of change of water right, and there is no intervening surface diversion point or inflow between the new point of diversion and the diversion point from which the changes are being made. See id. The simple changes sought in this Application are necessary because the District Court for Water Division No. 1, in Case No. 02CW403, determined that the construction of the Globeville Area Flood Control Project in the vicinity of the historical Burlington Ditch Headgate constituted a changed point of diversion for the Burlington Ditch under which water was now diverted at a structure located approximately 900 feet upstream from the historical Burlington Ditch Headgate. The diversion structure for the Burlington Ditch from the South Platte River established by the Globeville Area Flood Control Project is referred to in this Application as the “New Burlington Ditch Headgate.” The locations of the historical Burlington Ditch Headgate and the New Burlington Ditch Headgate are shown in the map attached as Exhibit A to the Application. III. Decreed water rights for which change is sought: A. Burlington Ditch, Reservoir and Land Company (“Burlington Company”) Water Rights. The headgate of the Burlington Ditch is the decreed point of diversion for certain water rights represented

by Thornton’s shares in the Burlington Company, or serves as a point of re-diversion of those water rights after release from prior upstream storage.

1. Thornton seeks to change one of the points of diversion for the following water rights represented by its ownership of 770.455 shares in the Burlington Company represented by the share certificate numbers listed in Exhibit B to the Application.
