she’s in an apartment building that houses many other members of Congress.

Her medical practice will remain and the o ce is planning to hire a replacement, but she’s planning on taking a few shifts when she’s in the district.

“Just to keep my skills up,” she said.

She plans to come back to the district as often as possible to be able to spend time with her family as well as to strengthen her connection to the community.

Counties navigate future after Tri-County Health breakup

Former system expired Dec. 30

e mask mandates implemented during the pandemic left a legacy in region’s health care. ey fueled the breakup of Tri-County Health, the state’s largest public health agency, serving Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties for more than seven decades.

Douglas County o cials took issue with mask mandates put in place by the health agency. Looking back, Tri-County Health Director John Douglas, a doctor, said masks were meant to protect the public as the virus swept through the metro area.

“I’m sorry the dynamics of the politicization of the pandemic put us in a place where we had to make choices, speci cally referring to the mask mandate, that were going to create acrimony with Douglas County,” Douglas said.

Two dead after Christmas morning shooting at Thornton Kingdom Hall

Victims

identified by Adams County Coroner as Westminster residents

STAFF REPORT

ornton police investigating a shooting at a Jehovah’s Witness congregation and have con rmed two adults are dead.

According to a statement released by the department, at approximately 9 a.m., ornton Police received a “call reference” regarding a structure re at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses, 951 Milky Way Dr. in ornton.

When police arrived they found two dead — an adult female who was shot and killed by an adult male, who then shot and killed himself, according to the release.

e two were identi ed Dec. 28 by the Adams County Coroner as 44-year-old Melissa Susanna Martinez and 46-year-old Enoch Noah Apodaca of 8601 Zuni St., Westminster, the Highview Mobile Home Community.

e two were married, according to ornton Police, and were former members of the congregation.

According to Dec. 28 news release, Apodaca went to the place of business with “what appeared to be a bucket.”  After he left, there was a large explosion.

Enoch then broke a window at Kingdom Hall and placed three explosive devices in the building. After, he shot Martinez and then himself with the same shotgun. None of the explosive devices detonated. A hazardous materials unit from the Adams County Sheri ’s Department investigated “suspicious devices” found at the scene.

e congregation issued a statement Sunday afternoon saying they are praying for the families of all a ected by the shooting.

“We are shocked and deeply saddened by the unprovoked attack and loss of life at our Kingdom Hall in Thornton,” the statement read. “We are cooperating with the authorities as they carry out their investigation into the event. Our hearts go out to the family and friends of those who have been traumatized by the heinous actions that took the life of an innocent victim and threatened the lives of many others.”

Westminster Station, Downtown a slow but steady project

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Downtown Westminster will have between 2-3 million square feet of o ce, 4,500 residents, 700,000 square feet of retail, 300+ hotel rooms, an entertainment district, LEED Silver buildings and have access to public transit, Economic Vibrancy Manager John Burke told councilors Dec. 5.

For the new residences, there will be around 2,200 units that range from apartments to townhomes, condos and others. Right now, there are 807 apartments and three to four townhomes according to Burke.  Westminster city council received an update on the developments at Westminster Station and the new downtown at the Dec. 5 study session.

Interim Planning Manager John McConnell said the Westminster Station will turn into a transit-oriented development to stimulate the local economy, revitalize underdeveloped areas, increase connectivity to the rest of the region and reduce driving dependency so residents can “live, work and play in the same area.”  e land use surrounding

the station will be a mix of uses compatible with the neighboring areas.

City Councilor Bruce Baker asked if there is a timeline the city is going by. McConnell did not give a speci c timeline.

According to the meeting’s agenda, the downtown plan o ers a mid-point between Downtown Denver and Boulder. Total public investment is approximately $100 million with $450 million in private investment.  e development around Westminster Station was an $80 million investment from the city and regional partners. e B-Line opened in

2016 and ridership exceeded expectations — until the COVID-19 pandemic hit.  e agenda says the area around the station includes fractured small lots and public housing. ose small lots will remain and be zoned for such until they decide to move or close down.

Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott wanted to make sure there is a mixture between what properties are for purchase and what is for rent in the new downtown. Also, he wants to balance a ordable housing units.

He also asked if LEED certi cation is a barrier when

looking for developers, or if it’s a standard in the region.

“LEED Silver is not a super high bar,” McConnell said.

McConnell also noted LEED certi cations can lead to cost reductions, such as water or energy bills.

Regarding a ordability, DeMott also asked if the certi cation leads to higher rent or mortgages for those who will live there. McConnell said it does not.

City Councilor Sarah Nurmela, a former city sta member as well, said it will take time for the developments to take foot.

“Rome was not built in a day,” she said.

She pointed to the Orchard Town Center, which was planned as a large commercial area. While it is, it is also seeing more residential areas popping up.

As well, the developments will be block-by-block, she said, which means the city won’t rely on only one developer or one bank and their nances.

Chief Financial O cer Larry Dorr said new housing units now generate sales tax due to online deliveries. Wherever the purchased item is delivered is where the sales tax goes.

“Residential units were once looked upon as a burden in municipal governments, requiring service but not generating tax revenue,” he said.

Economic Development Director Lindsey Kimball said tech businesses, bioscience and others in Westminster who are recruiting sta , a big attraction and want is multimodal transportation. She said the train connection at Westminster Station can be a big sell for businesses in that area for people to commute to their work.

Restaurants, parks, trails and city events also attract businesses to the area, Burke said.

Adams County launches health department website

Adams County launched a new health department website Dec. 23 with search features about environmental health, viral records, community services, and health care services. e new website debuts in response to the county’s separation from TriCounty Health Department.

“ e new ACHD website will help visitors, including mobile users in rural areas with limited internet access, to nd the information they need. Also, to learn about our work to support public health, safety, and opportunity in Adams County,” said Executive Director Dr. Kelly Weidenbach.

According to the o cials, the Adams County Board of Commission ended its partnership with Tri-County Health Department in October 2021. Its goal is to create a new health department to provide 520,000 residents and businesses in Adams County with health needs. e new health department will o cially open its doors on Jan. 3. e Adams County Health Department’s website also provides Adams County residents with updates on the development of initiatives. According to o cials, the website will roll out in phases in the coming weeks and is designed to be user-friendly, delivering the information the health department o ers.

“We want everyone, not just health professionals, but also parents, students, businesses, and our partners to get the information they need. We are hoping this website will eventually serve as a ‘dashboard’ for all the

services we deliver in Adams,” said Weidenbach.

“ e depth and breadth of the content and services ACHD will o er to the diverse Adams County communities are immense. Because of this, we needed a platform that o ers a one-stop shop of information for our various populations.”

Douglas County’s response was to opt out and create its own public health agency, which is now operating with a budget of its own.

at means Tri-County Health is left to fade away, toppled by the controversy, leaving each county to gure out how to provide and pay for public health services.

Public health departments do more than respond to pandemics. Tri-County Health provided no-cost cancer screenings, overdose prevention, and inspections to ensure the cleanliness of restaurants and health at child care facilities.

In the process of developing its own health department, Douglas County stayed ahead or on schedule to meet the Jan. 1 deadline. With restaurant and child care facilities already being inspected, and staing levels at or above expectations.

Di erent plans

Tri-County Health marks its last day of regular business hours Dec. 30, nearly 75 years after the agency opened. But many of its former employees will still carry out public health services under the newlyformed county health departments.

e Adams County Health Department planned to hire a total of

about 170 employees, though that number was subject to change, Lynn Baca, an Adams County commissioner, said months ago.

Adams expected “at least 60 sta members” from Tri-County Health to come aboard its new department, Baca said. She and another Adams commissioner didn’t immediately respond for comment seeking an update on the agency’s progress.

In Arapahoe County, the new health department expected to hire “up to 180 people,” a county spokesperson said in August, though he didn’t specify how many were to come from Tri-County Health

In Douglas County, with one issue in hiring an accountant, department o cials said they should be fully sta ed by the end of January with more than 40.

Adams and Arapahoe both appointed former Tri-County Health leaders to head their new health departments.

Douglas County, wealthier and less-populated than its neighbors to the north, has “decided to run things in a somewhat di erent way,” said Douglas, the Tri-County chief.

“ ey made the assessment that the county in general has a much higher level of health outcomes,” Douglas said, noting that STRIDE Community Health, a nonpro t health-care provider with locations around the Denver area, will provide sexual health and immunization services in Douglas County based on a partnership with the county.

Adams County launched a new website Dec. 23 in support of the county’s new health department. The new Adams County department will replace the function served by Tri-County Health on Jan. 3.

Thornton fire chiefs receive international professional designation

e outgoing health chief said “there’ll be growing pains in setting that up.”

“ ere are a lot of folks in Douglas County who don’t need the kind of services Tri-County Health Department provides, but it’s certainly not everybody,” Douglas said, adding he has admiration for STRIDE.

Looking to disease response, if a new public health emergency arises, Tri-County Health won’t be there to send help from one county to another, Douglas said.

While mutual aid could occur among the three counties, “I think that is an area where things might be thinner,” he added.

Costs, priorities vary

e process of the three counties pulling out of Tri-County began with the Douglas County commissioners,

ignation in 2018 and received her renewal in 2021. Chief Hobbs and Chief Harpring become one of only 1,764 CFOs worldwide.

e designation is the result of a voluntary program designed to recognize individuals who demonstrate their excellence in seven measured components including experience, education, professional development, professional contributions, association membership,

who decided to immediately leave the health agency September 2021 after months of disagreements over COVID-19 protection measures.

Douglas County formed its own health department and decided to contract to continue receiving many public health services from TriCounty until at least the end of 2022.

Adams County leaders decided to break from Tri-County soon after Douglas County did, but Adams’ choice to go alone on public health “had nothing to do with the pandemic or masking,” Baca previously told Colorado Community Media.

Di erences of opinion on public health policy didn’t just arise amid the pandemic, Adams County commissioners have told CCM, citing Arapahoe County’s budget restrictions and Douglas County’s priorities.

“We have di erent factors that a ect our citizens in Adams County — we have air pollution, citizens working in industrial jobs. We’re addressing poverty. We have homeless-

community involvement, and technical competence. In addition, all applicants are required to identify a future professional development plan.

e CFO designation program uses a comprehensive peer review model to evaluate candidates seeking the credential. e Commission on Professional Credentialing awards the designation only after an individual successfully meets all

ness,” Baca said previously, noting Douglas County does not encounter those issues as much as other counties.

Di erent priorities could in uence a di erence in spending across the three counties.

Adams County’s contribution to Tri-County Health’s 2021 budget was $3.8 million, Arapahoe County’s contribution was $4.8 million and Douglas County’s contribution was $2.6 million, according to Tri-County.

e net cost for the rst year of Adams County’s own health department could total between $11 million and $13 million, Baca has said.

“Our rst year out, we’re looking at it’s going to be approximately 20 to 25 million dollars, with an estimated 12 to 14 million dollars in grants,” Baca has said.

Arapahoe County Commissioner Nancy Sharpe has said the county’s own health department will likely cost the county around $5 million per year, possibly even more.

Fees could change

Douglas County’s new public health director, Michael Hill, previously told CCM the county’s health department will adopt the same fee structure as Tri-County initially but may consider suggesting fee changes later.

Asked whether fees for public health services will be higher under the Adams County Health Department compared to what the fees for the same services were under TriCounty, Baca previously said Adams County leaders haven’t discussed that level of detail during meetings.

She anticipated “that we would maintain the fee structure at least starting out.

On the issues

As a Democrat state legislator, most of her time consisted of serving in the majority. Now as a minority member in the soon-tobe Republican-controlled House, her game plan won’t change from her actions in the state legislature.

“Having a very clear majority in the House and having a trifecta in the State, I really always strove to make my legislation bipartisan,” she said. “Two-thirds of the bills that I carried had bipartisan votes on them.”

ree issues she campaigned heavily on were healthcare, climate and affordability.

Healthcare

As a pediatrician, she hopes to work on and pass legislation that brings down the cost of medications, citing her work as a state legislator.

When it comes to COVID-19 and preventing another pandemic, she doubles down on the e ort of federal powers listening to doctors, scientists and people across the board in the healthcare system.

She said many issues in the healthcare system were uncovered by the pandemic

and those workers were the rst to bear witness. Now, they need to be involved in the solutions to x the problem.

“Being able to have an agile healthcare workforce, and making sure that we learn from the issues of the healthcare industry,” she said.

As well, she noted the need to invest in antibiotic research and vaccine research to be prepared for future situations that arise.

It also starts at the education stage. Right now, she pointed to long waiting lists for nursing schools and the una ordability to attain those degrees. ose students need to be trained so those jobs can be lled, particularly in rural areas.

“We need to make sure to invest in residency programs, in particular in rural areas, so that we can address some of the big shortages we already have in terms of doctors in rural areas,” she said.

Adding more employees can also reduce burnout to lessen overtime hours needed to ll in the gaps.

Additionally, moving funding away from insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies to providers and the people who actually take care of patients.

Climate

Creating jobs by transitioning to renewables will

help keep a strong energy economy in Colorado, Caraveo said, instead of losing them to other parts of the country.

“We have a thriving oil and gas industry with many important and well-paying jobs,” she said. “And we can also make sure that we’re preparing for the future by investing in wind and solar and other types of renewable energy so that we’re really making sure that we’re addressing issues of climate change and air quality in Colorado.”

Not only does that help the economy, but also the health of Coloradoans. During ozone days in the summer, many kids came to her clinic with asthma attacks. Others were unable to get their oxygen levels up.

With that as a reason she ran for o ce, she sees investing in renewable energies and making electric vehicles more accessible as solutions.

Acknowledging electric vehicles don’t always work in incredibly cold climates, she also sees public transportation as a way to get cars o the road.

A ordability

Caraveo grew up with her dad as a construction worker and says she realizes what normal, everyday families are going through.

She sees a ordability as

the prime issue facing her district.

“Normal, everyday people are really struggling to make ends meet and Congress really needs to focus more on making it possible for them to live the lives that they worked so hard for,” she said. at can start with making campaigning more accessible to working families. She said she saw many obstacles while running for o ce, such as nances and time.

She said the campaign process isn’t designed for someone who has to work for a living, since all the time is dedicated to fundraising, events and focusing on how much a campaign costs.

“You can’t work during the time that you’re campaigning. It’s hard for somebody that doesn’t have money, that doesn’t come from money to serve,” she said. en once someone is elected, they may be pay-

ing high prices for housing. For her, she’s paying for a mortgage and for her place in D.C..

The election

Looking back on the election, Caraveo thinks Coloradoans sent a clear message on what type of candidate they want to send to o ces.

With the rise of far-right candidates, the state overwhelmingly voted Democrat.

“We swept every statewide position and we elected two new Democrats to Congress. Extremism doesn’t work here in Colorado,” she said.

Going back to the Pizza Hut fire south of 79th Avenue on Sheridan Boulevard, I know there was angst and frustration on the many months that went by with the burnt out shell of a building. In that case, the property owner, the Pizza Hut leasee and their insurance company went around and around, from what city staff told me.

However, the other delaying factor was the State Health Department. As you may or may not know in Colorado, the state government has jurisdiction and control of asbestos removal. Municipalities are at the mercy of the state.

The division which oversees this health-related activity is woefully understaffed. They have consistently been slow in doing their reviews/approvals for private companies who are licensed to remove and abate the asbestos materials.

Westminster has had a string of situations dealing with asbestos. Besides the Pizza Hut, there has been the natural gas explosion on Knox Court in the Apple Blossom Subdivision and the fire involving buildings on the north side of 92nd Avenue in front of the Tri-City Baptist Church. People have asked why the destroyed buildings sit there for months.

In most cases, the State Health Department is the culprit at least to a fairly high degree in getting the eyesore buildings removed. Tell your state legislators to increase the budget for asbestos removal staff!

How much more does it take — or to say it differently, how much worse does life in Russia have to be before there is an uprising of a major magnitude?

Even Vladimir Putin’s oligarchfriends have seen their multi-million dollar yachts be confiscated and perhaps other luxury items which do not make the headlines.

Now, with the pressing economic constraints which the United States and the European Union have imposed, Russia is starting to see and feel the problem of purchasing replacement parts for equipment or whole new units. This is bound to “catch up” with the Russian government as well as its businesses and people. The idea

For the next decade, though, they hope to see far more coste ective no-emission technologies, chie y wind and solar.

of this happening reminds me of Cuba and what they have experienced over the decades with its decaying economy and life style.

Neglected infrastructure is a ticking

time bomb

It is no secret that dictator Putin’s government has ignored basic infrastructure replacements over the 20-plus years of his reign. Water and sewer lines in the larger cities are known to be neglected. There is not a schedule for replacement lines and treatment plant components like U.S. and E.U. cities practice. This in effect is a ticking time bomb for Putin as basic municipal service further deteriorates and people become more frustrated and incensed.

Then Putin initiated the war with Ukraine, which has cost the Russian government the equivalent of hundreds of millions of dollars if not billions of dollars. As the war slogs on, the Russian people are seeing the increasing cost of the war and realize that the same money could have been used on basic governmental services for them.

Renters need protection

Renters in Westminster need protections because landlords take advantage of us and we deserve safe and stable homes.

In 2019, city inspectors identi ed dangerous conditions in our apartment complex but the xes are just starting now. For three years, our apartment has had ceiling leaks, a rotted hole under our kitchen sink and periodic sewage water back ups, which continue to this day. When they improperly installed a water heater in November, we had natural gas leaking into our home. Space heaters we use to keep us warm shorted out the electricity in our living room and bedroom, which still isn’t xed over a month later. It’s unacceptable that my family has to live like this.

Furthermore, thousands of young Russian men have died on the various battle fronts of the war. Others fled the country when Putin called for 300,000 men to be inducted into military service.

What does it take to ignite a rebellion? When will the Russian people say “enough is enough?” Only time will tell, but something could well trigger an uprising.

There is a flip side to the Russian question

While Putin has a political dilemma with “his” extended war, President Biden and the newly seated Congress have a fundamental political dilemma of their own with this war.

With the Republicans regaining control of the House of Representative, it is likely that there will be serious debate on the issue of how much more military aid should the United States provide to Ukraine? Clearly, if Kevin McCarthy becomes the Speaker of the House, this issue will be “front and center” before House members.

With the approval of the new federal budget of $1.7 trillion by Congress and the President, almost $45 billion is earmarked for Ukraine military, economic and humanitarian support and NATO allies. To date, more than $100 bil-

lion has been provided to Ukraine in the eleven months of defending their country against the senseless war brought on by Putin and his military. Recognizing that the U.S. budget is a deficit budget, it does beg the question of how long should the U.S. continue such a high level of support.

Did you know Adams County has a transportation impact fee?

Some Colorado governmental units have what is known as a transportation impact fee. Basically, it is an additional fee imposed to help pay for needed transportation improvements. Adams County is among the minority number of governments which has such a fee.

In 2018, the Board of County Commissioners commissioned a fee study which was completed in March 2019. It concluded that road improvement needs greatly exceeded the current funding. Also, new residential development was a significant drain on the county. Furthermore, new development should pay for a greater share of its infrastructure cost burden.

From the study’s conclusions, initial fees were adopted effective March 1, 2020 with separate fee schedules west and east of Shumaker Road.

The fee schedule is set to increase annually, consistent with the CPI-U. The fees were set up to be implemented over a three year period. Fees are based on square footage of finished space for residential and floor area per 1,000 square feet for non-residential. The March 2022-2023 schedule for the west side (developed part of the county) ranges from $2,700$6,371 per dwelling unit. Retail space is $6,089, office/service is $2,555 and industrial is $1,031 all of which are based on each 1,000 square feet.

While it is an easy way to generate additional revenue for roads, bridges and other transportation improvements, it obviously adds to the cost of the homes and non-residential buildings built in Adams County.

It is safe to say all local governments are faced with transportation needs which exceed available revenues. Be aware of this additional cost if building in unincorporated Adams County.

BY TAYLER SHAW TSHAW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When two friends joined forces to donate socks to homeless shelters in January 2012, they had no idea it would lead them on a path to creating a nonpro t that has collected nearly one million pairs of socks for people in need throughout the U.S.

e Sock It To ‘Em Sock Campaign, co-founded by Sue Lee and Phillis Shimamoto, collects and distributes new pairs of socks for people experiencing homelessness and those in need, such as low-income families, Marshall Fire victims and migrants who arrived in Denver in late 2022.

Although it was more than a decade ago, Lee remembers nearly every detail of how the nonpro t originated. She was in the soup aisle at King Soopers, shopping for anksgiving dinner on a Tuesday night in 2011.

“As I was literally grabbing a can of cream of mushroom soup, written in my head were yellow block letters with a red outline, and it went like a marquee and went across my head, inside my head, and it said, ‘Sock It To ‘Em Sock Campaign, socks for the homeless.’ And it kept rotating,” Lee said. It made her stop in her tracks.

“Literally, it was written — so it wasn’t like a thought I had conjured up,” she said. “If the message were from God, I looked up and down the aisle to make sure nobody was around, and I said, ‘Seriously? You think I have nothing else to do?’”

e message kept repeating as she nished shopping. She walked to her car and, out loud, said, “OK, I’ll do it.”

“I got in the car and I called Phillis. And I said, ‘Phillis, you won’t believe what just happened. I might have gotten a divine message, I don’t know,’” Lee said.

Lee suggested they ask their friends to gather new pairs of socks through the end of December, and then take them to some homeless shelters in January.

“I was like, ‘Well, let’s do it,’” Shimamoto said.

During the rst week in January 2012, in 7-degree weather, Lee and Shimamoto took 575 pairs of socks to three locations.

“And at every location, they were saying, this is the number one clothing need,” Lee said.

Shimamoto said after they found out socks were “the most requested item and the least donated,” they decided to continue collecting socks.

“We said, well, let’s do what we can. Let’s try to make it as big as we can,”

Shimamoto said. “And who knew that after all this time, we would be on our way to a million socks.”

The value of socks

Educating people about the value of socks, especially to people experiencing homelessness, is part of the nonpro t’s work, Lee said.

ere are an estimated 10,857 people experiencing homelessness on a given night in Colorado, according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness.

e research article, “Foot Conditions among Homeless Persons: A Systematic Review,” cited a study that found people experiencing homelessness walked a median of ve miles each day.

In another study, it was reported “that only 61% of homeless participants changed to a clean pair of socks daily.”

With walking being their primary mode of transportation, many people experiencing homelessness go through their socks fairly quickly, Lee explained.

“A pair of socks on a homeless person might last two to three days,” she said. “It’s really important to be — have those constant socks out there at shelter services and agencies for them.”

Lee said people sometimes only picture men as experiencing homelessness. However, a November 2014 report by the American Institutes for Research stated approximately 2.5 million children are homeless each year in the U.S.

“We had to educate people that … we need socks for men, women and children,” she said.

Something else Lee informs people of is the danger of foot ailments for people experiencing homelessness.

“One of the main reasons a person who’s homeless goes into the emergency room is a foot ailment, and they can die from that,” Lee said. “One way to stop that from happening is for them to have clean, dry socks to wear on a regular basis.”

“Every time someone gives socks, they should realize this might save a person’s life,” she said.

Eric Hill, an emergency medicine physician and the EMS medical director for the Medical Center of Aurora, said cold weather injuries and foot problems are high on the list of reasons people experiencing homelessness go to the emergency room.

“Especially around the wintertime, when you get really cold spikes, we tend to see more of it, especially in the days afterwards when they already have the frostbite,” Hill said. “ ey’re at a much higher risk just given their

exposure levels and lack of appropriate clothing for that kind of environment.”

He noted people experiencing homelessness come to the emergency room for other, variable reasons, such as issues related to mental health and substance abuse.

“ ey may come in with (an) alcohol-related issue or drug-related issue, but when you’re actually evaluating them, you see that they actually have signi cant feet problems with that,” he said.

e toes are very susceptible to frostbite, he explained, saying having regular access to dry, clean socks is a big part of preventing foot ailments.

“Access to good footwear, waterproof, recurrent socks, is a great thing,” Hill said.

Becoming a nonprofit

After continuing their work of collecting socks in 2013, by 2014, Lee and Shimamoto realized they needed to o cially establish themselves as a nonpro t, which they did in 2015.

In the beginning, Lee and Shimamoto were counting, sorting, bagging and storing the socks themselves.

Now, members of the National Charity League do almost all of the counting, sorting and bagging for them, Lee said, and then the socks are stored in a storage unit until they’re ready for pickup from an organization that needs them.

e nonpro t collects and distributes socks in a variety of ways, and it has had in uence in least 47 states in the country, Lee said.

One of the methods for collecting socks is through sock ambassadors, which Lee said is any person, business, place of worship, or organization that collects new socks for the nonpro t.

“And then they get them to us, we count, sort and bag them, and we get them out to shelters, services and agencies,” Lee said.

Over the years, the nonpro t has given socks to more than 200 shelter services and agencies, Lee said.

ey also give socks to individual people who may be assembling “blessing bags” and want to include socks in them for people experiencing homelessness, she added.

Among the extensive list of sock recipients is Cardenas Ministries, a family operated nonpro t based in Henderson, in Adams County, that hosts a range of events and initiatives aimed at giving back to the community.

“We just enjoy doing stu in the community, whether it’s for kids who are underprivileged or whether it’s for the women’s shelters, homeless,” said Valerie Soto, one of the family mem-

bers.

“We were buying socks and we never had enough socks to give out,” Soto said.

During one of their events, roughly four years ago, they connected with someone who introduced them to Lee and the Sock It To ‘Em nonpro t.

“Sue has just been a big blessing. We’ve been able to help so many people because of Sock It To ‘Em,” Soto said.

She said they’ve received thousands of socks from the nonpro t, which are distributed through e orts such as their holiday events, gift bags they assemble for people experiencing homelessness, and their school supplies donations to southern Colorado communities.

Recently, Cardenas Ministries’ had about 1,000 pairs of socks from Sock It To ‘Em to hand out during its December “Spirit of Giving Parade of Toys” event, in which they gave out hats, gloves, socks and toys to families at di erent housing developments in Brighton and Commerce City.

“ ey’re angels on earth,” said Gloria Estrada, the mother of Soto, about Sock It To ‘Em. “ e need is there.”

Soto said she can speak from experience, as when she was growing up, both of her parents were in college and there were “ ve of us kids.”

“We didn’t have enough clothes. We were very, very poor at that time,” Soto said. “And we would have to share socks.”

When children come up at the events and pick the pair of socks they want, it creates a good feeling, Soto said.

“Sock It To ‘Em, I’m telling you, they are just so amazing,” Soto said.

Cathy Law — the project manager for the Volunteers of America Colorado AmeriCorps Seniors Retired Senior Volunteer Program in Denver, Douglas and western Arapahoe counties — also praised Sock It To ‘Em for its partnership with Volunteers of America.

“It’s an amazing partnership,” Law said, explaining they rst connected in 2016. “Sue and Phillis give me a bunch (of socks), and then I can distribute them in the community because we have partnerships with these other agencies.”

Law said she’s taken socks to many di erent places, such as to the Volunteers of America veterans’ service center and to food banks Volunteers of America works with.

“I really feel like it’s a heartbeat in the community, where they’re connecting people,” Law said about Sock It To ‘Em.

“ ey’re showing you that an act

of kindness can go so far,” she added. “And that if you believe in something, you can make it happen.”

e nonpro t’s impact is also growing outside of Colorado, as Lee said the nonpro t gets submission forms from across the country of people wanting to do sock drives.

ere are also people called “sock sherpas” who o er to transport socks to areas outside of Colorado.

In some states, smaller networks of people working together to collect and donate socks are forming, Shimamoto said.

“ at’s always been our goal, is to be able to have pods of people in di erent states who can connect with one another and kind of build a small community,” Shimamoto said. “Hopefully, it just gets bigger and bigger.”

Support from Colorado cities, towns

Even before earning its o cial nonpro t status, Sock It To ‘Em began making a name for itself in Colorado cities and towns.

On the Friday before anksgiving in 2014, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock proclaimed the second Wednesday in December a “Sock It To ‘Em Work Day,” Lee said.

Following the proclamation, Lee emailed seven mayors the next Monday asking for their support as well. e next night, she went shopping for anksgiving in the same King Soopers at the same time as she had in 2011.

“I’m in the soup aisle and literally, I’m grabbing a can of cream of mushroom soup, and my phone goes o in my pocket,” she said.

It was Catherine Marinelli, the executive director of the Metro Mayors Caucus, a voluntary, regional association of 38 mayors. She told Lee two mayors had forwarded the email Lee sent to the caucus.

“And she goes, ‘We love this idea,’” Lee said.

Marinelli invited members of Sock It To ‘Em to attend the caucus’ legislative holiday party, which was the same day as the proclaimed work day, and said the mayors would be bringing socks to donate.

“And that got some other mayors interested in us,” Lee said.

One of those mayors was Clint Folsom, who was the mayor of Superior from 2014 to 2022. e town began collecting and distributing socks to people experiencing homelessness, Lee said.

When the 2021 Marshall Fire destroyed more than 1,000 homes in Boulder County, displacing residents, Shimamoto reached out to Folsom to donate socks.

In total, they donated about 16,000 pairs of socks, Lee said.

“It was really cool to be able to give back to them after all that they had given to the community all of those years,” Shimamoto said. “It really warmed our hearts to be able to see that come full circle.”

A lot of the 16,000 pairs that went to Superior came from other cities who held Sock It To ‘Em sock drives, Lee said.

“It was really emotional,” she said. e cities of Centennial, Greenwood Village and Englewood hosted sock drives again in late 2022, collecting new pairs of socks of all types and sizes through mid-January.

Schools have also joined in on the

sock drives, such as High Five Preschool in Castle Rock, Bradford Primary School in Littleton, and Timberline Elementary School in Centennial.

Some schools, on the other hand, are the recipients of socks through the nonpro t’s sock drawer program.

ese drawers are typically implemented in Title I schools, which are schools receiving federal resources due to having a lower-income student population.

“Many of those kids go to school and they don’t have socks, and so we decided to do sock drawers,” Lee said.

“And so we get them into schools and then we try to replenish them as we can.”

Some volunteers in the Retired Senior Volunteer Program gave back to Sock It To ‘Em by putting together sock drawers, Law said.

Since the 2022-23 school year began, the nonpro t established approximately 22 sock drawers in schools across the Denver metro area, Lee said.

Law re ected on how many people are involved in the collection and distribution of socks to people in need.

“By the time that individual gets that pair of socks, it’s not just a pair of socks. It’s those hands of love that say we’re thinking of you — and sometimes that’s more important, is just people knowing that someone’s thinking of them,” Law said.

Looking ahead

Sock It To ‘Em plans to celebrate collecting one million pairs of socks on Feb. 16, re ecting on how the nonprofit has grown over the past decade and how it can continue to do so.

Expanding the sock drawer program, as well as the sock ambassador program, across the country are on the list of goals Lee has for the nonpro t’s future.

Another goal is raising funds.

“It would be signi cant to raise a quarter of a million dollars — that would allow us to really expand to the degree that we know we can,” Lee said, adding she would like to establish a facility for the nonpro t to operate in.

On top of its constant need for sock donations, the nonpro t also needs more volunteers, Lee said. Volunteer duties may include calling schools to see if they want a sock drawer, overseeing sock ambassadors, or transporting socks.

Lee encouraged those interested in learning more about the nonpro t and participating in it to ll out the submission form on their website: sockittoemsockcampaign.org.

Looking back at how the nonpro t has evolved over the years, Lee and Shimamoto encouraged people to pursue their ideas.

“If you have an idea, do it — and don’t be afraid that you won’t know how to do it, because there will be enough people in your sphere of in uence that will know how to help you,”

Lee said, encouraging people to ask themselves: “what if, what else and why not” when they have an idea.

e two friends expressed gratitude for all the ways people have supported their vision and nonpro t.

“We wouldn’t be able to be able to do what we do if it wasn’t for them,”

Lee said. “It’s thousands of people who have really participated in where we are today.”

“Everybody’s contribution has meant something to someone,” Shimamoto added. “And everybody who has contributed one pair of socks has contributed to this large amount that just keeps growing every year.”

Rap music often sounds the best during the summer, but Denzel Curry’s fth album shines for a different reason - the way it captures the beauty and wistfulness of the season. As a rule, Curry is allergic to all things saccharine, which is all to the good - the album evokes every aspect of the perfect summer day without clobbering the listener over the head with vibes.

Speaking of atmosphere, Curry carefully selects his guests and all shine - pianist Robert Glasper is a wonderful addition to “Melt Session #1” and Rico Nasty and JID (who both released stellar albums this year) both go for show-stealing on “Ain’t No Way.” You de nitely want to check out the extended version of the album, which goes beyond just providing a look behind the creative curtain and creates a vibrant, jazzdrenched feel.

Not every one succeeds, but I love the album for its brash attempts and quiet introspection. “brothers,” one of the year’s most devastating songs, reveals that Le’aupepe’s father had secret children that thought he was already dead, and “the man himself” is a rousing sonic builder that doubles at one of the most honest explorations of grief you’re likely to nd on a rock record.

Sports betting tax haul is expected to double

Could reach $24M

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado budget analysts expect tax revenue from sports betting to double in the coming year in what would amount to a touchdown, a eld goal and a safety for the Colorado water projects.

e Governor’s O ce of State Planning and Budgeting and the nonpartisan Legislative Council Sta project that sports betting tax revenues will be as high as $24 million in the 2022-23 scal year, which began July 1. Of that money, $22.5 million would go toward the Colorado Water Project, the plan aimed at ensuring Colorado has enough water for its growing population amid climate changeinduced drought.

e state collected only about $12.4 million in sports betting taxes in the 2021-22 scal year, which ended June 30, about $11.4 million of which will go toward the water

plan. Hence, the touchdown ($6 million), eld goal ($3 million) and safety ($2 million) analogy.

Bryce Cook, chief economist for OSBP, said the reason for the big forecast increase is that the legislature passed a bill this year limiting the number of free bets that sports betting operators can o er starting Jan.1. (Colorado imposes a 10% tax on casinos’ net sports betting proceeds. A free bet doesn’t generate any proceeds.)

“We’ve also just seen record wagers this year in sports betting,” Cook said.

When voters passed Proposition DD in 2019, allowing sports betting in Colorado, nonpartisan legislative analysts expected Colorado to make about $16 million each year in sports betting tax revenue. e state is authorized to collect up to $29 million in sports betting tax revenue annually under the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights.

e OSPB, in its quarterly economic and tax revenue forecast presented to the legislature’s Joint Budget Committee on Dec. 20,

said the agency expects the state to collect $25 million in sports betting tax revenue in the 2023-24 scal year and $27 million in the 2024-25 scal year.

Legislative Council Sta had similar sports betting tax revenue projections, forecasting $22 million in the current scal year, $26.2 million in the 2023-24 scal year and $28.9 million in the 2024-25 scal year.

October was the second highest month in terms of total sport betting wagers in Colorado since sports betting began in Colorado in May 2020. About $526 million was wagered, a 17% increase over the prior month and a 7.2% year-overyear increase.

e October wagers netted the state $2.3 million in tax revenue.

Wild Pink - “ILYSM”

e pervasiveness of cancer in our world could possibly inure a person to the impact that receiving a positive diagnosis must have. When John Ross, lead singer of New York’s Wild Pink, received his diagnosis at 34, it’s di cult to imagine what that must’ve been like. But, in a way, you don’t need to imagine - it is all over the band’s latest album.

Like most of the writers on this list, Ross doesn’t deal in the traditional or expected. His pen is as sharp as ever, and he nds sometimes jarring, sometimes breathtaking ways to take the listener along on his winding road. He can be bitter and sardonic, like on “Oversharers Anonymous,” and expansive and loving, as heard on “Hold My Hand.”

In charting his story, Ross set an example for everyone who is struggling. Which, let’s face it, feels like is everybody.

Casa Bonita to open in May

BY ANDREW FRAIELI AFRAIELI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Casa Bonita in Lakewood will open in May 2023, according to an announcement by “South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Dana Rodriguez, the Denver-based executive chef for the project, joined in the announcement.

“Casa Bonita has brought so much joy to so many people over the years – we wanted to share the news of our May reopening as our holiday gift to the people of Colorado,” Rodriguez said in a statement.

The two Colorado natives bought the bright pink restaurant and childhood staple in September, only months after it went bankrupt in April 2021 due to the pandemic, for a reported $3.1 million.

People, places, events dot prep sports recap

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It felt like a normal year. After COVID-caused interruptions and cancellations, 2022 felt like a much more normal year in the world of prep sports. Masks weren’t required, and crowds came to cheer on their teams.

It also meant a fuller slate of things to present on our pages during the year. Here’s a list of some of the items we talked about.

Sports people

One of the main ingredients to the sports coverage this year was highschool athletes choosing their next educational and athletic stops.

Such as Legacy High School’s Camdyn Johnson, who used a main feature of real estate to choose his college.

“I chose to go to Nebraska Wesleyan for a few reasons. First being that the college is located right there in Lincoln, Nebraska,” Johnson said. “I have only been to the city one time, and I absolutely loved it there. e coaching sta that I met were awesome too.”

Tanner Mills of Horizon liked Dakota State in South Dakota because of its competitive atmosphere.

ornton High School’s Leonel Uribe Alarcon liked the relationship he built with his new school, Presentation College in Aberdeen, S.D.

Horizon High School’s Blake Kramer had to use most of the available tools before settling on Western Colorado University.

Riverdale Ridge girls soccer forward Ashlee Trujillo wanted a new school that o ered nursing studies and some more soccer on the side. e winner?

Nebraska, State College).

Concordia University.

Trujillo was one of the original Ravens’ girls soccer players. She was a goalie before moving into the forward position.

Legacy’s Mason Dickerson’s hit paydirt with his wish list for a school

“I wanted to go to Colorado School of Mines because they were interested in me early in recruiting,” Dickerson said. “ e idea of being set for life after football was a major aspect to why I chose Mines too. Also, the sta there is very tight and has a great culture on the team.”

Riverdale Ridge’s RJ Holliday chose his college, too.

“When I visited Augustana University, they were extremely welcoming, made me feel very at home, part of their program and invested in my higher education,” Holliday said.

Westminster High School graduate Domenic Ciani went east for more football and more schooling.

“I chose Briar Cli (in Sioux City, Iowa). When I went and visited, the program was all about making a new, smash-mouth football program with the opportunity for young players like me to get a chance at playing college ball,” Ciani said

More letter signings involved Stargate School students Alex Horne (sailing), Aiden Hartman (soccer, Centre College, Danville, Kentucky) and Bo LaPenna (football, Chadron,

Riverdale Ridge High School’s Ty ompson may think his 15-pound weight loss during the summer was worthwhile. He was busy nding a college and settled on the University of Northern Colorado.

A letter-of-intent day at Horizon allowed three athletes - J.J. Gines (baseball at Colby CC in Kansas). Britta Cardenas (basketball and track at Bethany College), Tabor Robison (basketball at the University of Jamestown) - to move into the world of college athletics.

State qualifiers

Holy Family’s Cate Chapman recorded a pair of top- ve nishes at the state 3A girls swimming and diving championships Feb. 12 at Veterans Memorial Aquatic Center. Chapman was second in the 100yard backstroke (58.45 seconds) and fth in the 200-yard individual medley, where her time was 2:12.38. Olivia Zuhoski was sixth in the 500- freestyle, where her time was 5:25.21.

ree members of Riverdale Ridge’s Wrestling team placed at the state 4A tournament. AJ Hague (113 pounds) was third. Domonic Cerda (145) took fth. Ian Ingalls was sixth at 106 pounds.

AJ Hague (113 pounds), Domonic Cerda (145 pounds) and Ian Ingalls (106 pounds) placed this year.

“I wasn’t really doing anything too di erent, just trying to keep my head in the right state of mind and take what I have been wanting,” Cerda said.

Riverdale Ridge’s rst trip to the Sweet 16 of the state 4A boys basketball tournament did not end in a win. But it might set the stage for future endeavors for the program.

e Ravens lost just three seniorsLane Hawkins, Anthony Chavez and RJ Holliday.

“ ere’s a bunch of talent in the pipeline,” RRHS coach Byron Gray said. “We’ve got some eighth-graders coming in. We’re going to be solid.”

Holy Family’s girls basketball team made it to the quarter nals of the state 4A tournament before losing to Green Mountain. Skyview High School made it to the round of 16 in the tournament before Holy Family beat the Wolverines.

Riverdale Ridge advanced to the second round of the state 4A girls basketball tournament.

Riverdale Ridge pole-vaulter Lucas Couron left the competition area an hour before the state nals at Je co Stadium. He returned and eventually won the state title.

Couron’s top height was a seasonbest 15 feet 9 inches, beating his old standard by 2 inches. He tried three times to set a new state meet record at 16 feet 1/2 inch but came up short.

Holy Family’s Grayson Arnold wrapped up his prep high-school career in ne fashion. He took second place in both the 200-meter dash and the 100-meter dash at Je co Stadium. Fellow Tiger Skylar Hawk won two state titles, including the 200-meters where she fell across the nish line.

It was quite the journey for Legacy High School freshman pole vaulter Victoria Spitzley before she quali ed for this spring’s state track-and- eld meet.

e latest trophy for her case is the one for third place that she earned in the pole vault May 19 at Je erson County Stadium.

Legacy High School’s 4-by800-meter relay team started its race near the back of the pack at the state 5A track meet. But the foursome of Gabrielle Shepston, Mia Meraz, Addison Dolan and Kendall Aragon worked its way through the pack.

e four runners crossed the nish line of the Class 5A nals in sixth place with a time of 9:35.83.

All four girls were ecstatic after the race as they saw their time through the season dip.

”We have become such a tightknit team, and we give our all,” said Meraz, who ran the race just a few

hours after nishing in 13th place in the class 5A 3,200-meter nals.

Riverdale Ridge’s Aubree Davis rode the state tournament roller coaster in the opening game against Pueblo County.

She was the starting pitcher in the Ravens’ opener against Pueblo County. Davis didn’t make it out of the rst inning. PCHS also had a 5-0 lead when RRHS changed pitchers.

Fast-forward a couple of hours and six innings. Davis’ walk-o home run gave RRHS an 8-6 win and sent the Ravens into the quarter nals.

“I was feeling a little excitement,” she said. “ at was the pivotal moment in the game. I’m glad it happened. I don’t know what kind of a pitch it was. But I know I hit it far.” en there’s the story of Riverdale Ridge’s Bradley Weinmaster. When he nished his nal round at the state 4A golf tournament at Pelican Lakes in early October, he thought he lost.

One of his playing partners miscounted the scores. at put Weinmaster into a four-man playo , which he eventually won on the rst hole.

“I was in tears walking o the hole,” Weinmaster said. “Zane (Zane Aiken of Ponderosa) told me his scores were wrong. I was in second, and I thought `next year.’ I was like `Oh my God. I have a chance.’ God works ways.”

In state 3A golf news, Holy Family’s Rudiger Heitz nished fourth at Pinehurst Country Club, Heitz, a junior, nished with a 7174 - 145, ve shots in back of Liberty commons’ Ryan Woodley.

Legacy High School’s soccer team earned the top seed in this year’s class 5A state tournament. After a rst-round win, Legacy ran up against Ralston Valley goalkeeper Evan Bierman in the quarter nals.

With the Mustangs (13-5 record) clinging to a 1-0 lead in the nal minutes, the junior goalie made a series of four saves from point-blank range to complete the shutout victory in Ralston Valley’s rst-ever trip

to the state quarter nals.

Ralston Valley lost in the state semi nals.

e Lightning football team qualied for the state 5A football playo s this fall. LHS rolled past Arvada West 41-0 in the opening round.

At the time, the Lightning extended its winning streak to a schoolrecord nine games, and new coach Jay Madden gave all the credit to his team.

“We have a very special group,” Madden said. “ ey are the reason we are winning. ey are working hard and playing as one. It is fun to watch.”

Pine Creek ended the Lightning’s season the following week.

Stargate School’s Allison Pippert, fresh o a league cross country championship, took third at this year’s state 3A meet in Colorado Springs. Her time was 18:16.8. She nished second at state last year (18:47.6) on the same course as this year’s meet.

Moving on up

We kept track of people who were on the move this year. One of those was CJ Hannah, the new football coach at Westminster High School. He came to the Wolves from Denver North High School.

Another “mover” was former Skyview High School wrestler Jaslynn Gallegos, one of the rst female wrestlers in the state to stand on the awards podium at the state meet.

She went 14-3 during the justcompleted season at Presbyterian College in Clinton, South Carolina, including a championship in the National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championship Southeast Regional tournament.

But she won’t be back to defend her title next season. After a threeyear stay at Presbyterian, she entered the NCAA transfer portal and wound up at North Central College in Iowa.

is spring’s all-state games in Pueblo gave Mountain Range’s Kyle Lewis one last chance to compete

as a high-schooler, and it gave him a chance to sample college life at the same time.

He and the rest of the wrestling contingent showed up June 9 for two practices. e dual meet was the next morning.

Northglenn High School’s Sabina Czauz, the rst competitive highschool girls tennis player to play in a wheelchair, competed at the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York. She lost in the quarter nal round.

CHSAA news

e Colorado High School Activities Association’s board of directors chose its new leader March 7.

He is Mike Krueger, who will become the association’s 10th commissioner. He replaces Rhonda Blanford-Green, who stepped down at the end of this school year.

Blanford Green took in her last Colorado High School Activities Association Legislative Council meeting April 21.

She discussed the association’s budget, and she thanked the council for the privilege of serving as CHSAA’s commissioner.

“We’ve been through a lot together the past 14 months,” she said.

Her husband passed away, as did former associate commissioner Tom Robinson.

“ ere were a lot of times when I had to be Rhonda and be the commissioner,” she said. “I had to have a safe place to be Rhonda.”

Robinson died this spring at the age of 74. e former associate commissioner of the Colorado High School Activities Association Bert Borgmann said a lot of things came to mind.

e boys tennis postseason had an historic new look starting this fall. e change involves the state team championship, a dual-style tournament in mid-October, according to CHSAANow.com. e individual championships won’t change. ey will take place the second week in October.

High-school o cials’ fees are among the lowest among nearby states, according to Riverdale Ridge athletic director Aaron Reisen. e pay scale depends on the level of game (junior varsity vs. varsity) and how many o cials are assigned to work.

By comparison, Texas high-school football o cials were paid, at minimum, $105 to $135 per game this season.

According to retired CHSAA umpire Dan Weikle, who worked statelevel playo games during many of his 46 years as a certi ed baseball ofcial, the pay for an umpire in 1964 was $10 per game.

“If you extrapolate that out, that’s $88 today,” he said a year ago. “We get paid $62. e pay hasn’t kept up with in ation.”

Shoppers face statewide fee for bags

food in individual portions for immediate on- or off-premises consumption would be exempt, as would stores that operate solely in Colorado and have three or fewer locations.

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado businesses are required to charge consumers a 10-cent fee for each plastic and paper bag they carry out of the store as of Jan. 1.

That’s because of a bill passed by the state legislature in 2021 and signed into law by Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat.

The fee, which isn’t subject to the state’s 2.9% sales tax, may be higher if a town, city or county enacts a higher charge.

People who are in federal or state food assistance programs don’t pay the fees as long as they can prove that they are enrolled in one of those programs.

Businesses are required to send 60% of the bag-fee revenue they collect to the municipality they operate in. If the business is within an unincorporated part of a county, the money will be sent to the county.

Local governments would be required to spend the money on the following initiatives:

• Bag-fee enforcement costs

• Waste-diversion programs, including outreach and education

The remaining 40% of the bagfee revenue will be kept by businesses.

Stores that collect less than $20 in bag-fees in a given quarter don’t have to remit the revenue to their municipality or county and can keep the money.

Plastic bags will be banned in Colorado starting in 2024, with some exceptions

The 2021 bill also bans the distribution of all single-use plastic bags in Colorado starting in 2024. But there are asterisks.

Restaurants that prepare or serve

Businesses that are still allowed to offer plastic bags must collect a fee of at least 10 cents on each bag. The fee may be higher if a city or county enacts a higher charge.

Say goodbye to plastic foam

It’s not just plastic bags that are being done away with. The 2021 bill also bans polystyrene products — such as Styrofoam — across the state starting on Jan. 1, 2024.

The only exception is that restaurants will be able to continue using polystyrene products for takeout after that date until their existing inventory is gone.

What if businesses don’t comply?

Municipalities and cities will be able to sue businesses that don’t comply with the new bag-fee and styrofoam rules.

They also may assess the following fines:

• $500 for a second violation

• $1,000 for a third or subsequent violation

The fines can be assessed per violation during a retail sale. In other words, if a business illegally handed out 10 plastic bags during one transaction, they would be considered to have violated the law only once.

The measure also repeals a state prohibition barring local governments from introducing restrictions on plastic materials that are more stringent than the state’s.

will be her nal year.

Now, the Supreme Court did away with District Court’s ruling and said the o ce of mayor and the o ce of councilor are di erent. Kulmann is permitted to nish her term, and run again if she’s so inclined.

Terms cut short

On Feb. 8, ornton city council voted to give Former City Councilor Jacque Phillips the boot after they voted 5-4 declaring a vacancy on the dais due to her purchase of a home in Alamosa and starting a second job there.

Some for the vote said she was taking representation away from not fully living in ornton, while others said it was a political move.

Whatever the case, now the city is facing a lawsuit from Ward 1 community members regarding the decision.

Campaign Finance

e grassroots group advocating for campaign nance reform in ornton did not collect the required signatures to put the issue on the ballot, but that doesn’t mean their ght is over, organizers say.

e group had 21 days to collect 8,565 signatures for a referendum starting June 4. According to Roberta Ayala, a sponsor of the petition, the group only collected a few thousand.

Support has come from City

Councilors Kathy Henson, Karen Bigelow and Marvin. Marvin said changing the rules around acquiring signatures and the amount of time is not o the table for future ballot initiatives.

Both Marvin and Kate Miya, another organizer, described how di cult the process of collecting the required signatures in a short time has been in the past.

“We’re looking at trying to gather something like 12,000 to 14,000 signatures in 21 days, and that’s pretty much impossible,” Miya said.

Food access

Over in Westminster, Community members are looking for ways to address food access for South Westminster residents after the Walmart on Federal Blvd. closed down.

Wal-Mart shut down it’s 72nd and Federal location in July 2021 and neighbors felt that impact.

e ALTO a ordable housing complex, at 71st Avenue, is across the street from where Walmart used to be. According to Whitney Leeds, Growing Home’s advocacy and community organizing manager, many of those residents are served by Growing Home and said many voiced their concerns once Walmart closed its doors.

Growing Home then asked Westminster’s city council to consider a study looking into a potential food co-op for those residents. But, councilors said no.

Lead fuel

Residents, doctors and nurses in Westminster and around the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport

raised concern regarding the use of leaded fuel at the airport.

A group of doctors sent Je erson County commissioners a letter and a petition signed by 35 health care professionals asking the elected o cials to act on leaded fuel at the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport.

e call to action comes as RMMA ranks 63rd on the top 100 lead-emitting airports in the country. e airport dropped 580 pounds of lead in 2017.

A 2021 study of the Reid-Hillview Airport in California found elevated blood lead levels in children living within 1.5 miles of the airport, which was ranked 34th out of 100 lead-emitting airports.

However, no action has been seen from the County yet.

Housing program

Northglenn reused the old recreation center prior to its demolish to host a temporary housing program. e winter housing program had 20 full-time participants and was connected to appropriate daytime activities, such as having a job, training for a job, working with counselors, and others. As well, it included dinner and breakfast and case management.

From the time it ran — Dec. 2021 to Aug. 2022 — it averted 3,254 nights of homelessness, helped 45 people with employment and housed 29% of the participants.

Club Q reaction

Two teachers from Northglenn High School and a psychologist talked about students’ and children’s reactions to the Club Q

shooting in Colorado Springs that took ve lives.

Words like jaded, angry and not surprised all came up. And, the shooting came after a week of Pride at Northglenn High School. e school hosted its second annual Pride Week with spirit days, lunches, a prize wheel, temporary tattoos, rainbow bracelets and ags.

According to the group’s 2022 National Survey on LGBTQ Youth Mental Health, 45% of LGBTQ youth seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year. at parallels the Youth Risk Behavior Survey. In 2019, 14.5% of heterosexual students seriously considered attempting suicide compared to 46.8% of lesbian, gay or bisexual students.

Water problems

Westminster lowered water rates after the 2021 election, but raised them again in late 2022 to pair with in ation. Northglenn and ornton did the same.

roughout the year, Westminster’s sta and council discussed and brainstormed the new water treatment plant: where to put it, which features and how much they want to spend.

ornton may or may not face a similar issue. With a new health advisory from the Environmental Protection Agency, ornton’s PFAS levels are too high. However, that’s just an advisory.

If that advisory becomes a federal regulation, that will send ornton to the drawing board to decide what to do with their treatment plant to treat the PFAS, which will be costly.
