Battling property tax bills could be settled at ballot

Governor wants fix as competing nonprofits o er their solutions

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

e Colorado legislature’s inaction so far this year on a long-term x e ort to address rising property tax bills has prompted two scal policy nonpro ts — one conservative and the other liberal — to propose competing ballot measures that would dramatically reshape the state’s nancial picture.

e policy battle is a repeat of what happened at the Colorado Capitol last year, when the same groups, neither of which have to disclose their donors, initiated property tax ballot measures when the General Assembly was slow to act. ey backed down only when lawmakers passed a Band-Aid bill giving property owners two years of temporary tax relief.

Tribal partnerships are seen as key to e ort

As wild re seasons in Colorado and across the American West become longer, less predictable and increasingly destructive, a new report aims

to provide an equitable roadmap for protecting communities, watersheds and wildlife.

Rob Addington, Colorado forest program director for e Nature Conservancy, said engagement with tribal nations, who have been successful stewards of lands for thousands of years, will be critical to address the scale of the challenge.

“Developing tribal partnerships and really looking to tribal knowledge, ecological knowledge

Property tax revenue funds schools and local governments, meaning that any discussion about how they should change carries extremely high stakes. e stakes have only increased since Colorado voters in 2020 repealed the Gallagher Amendment, which prevented residential property tax bills from getting too big but, when combined with the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights, strangled local government budgets.   Rising property values across Colorado after the COVID-19 pandemic began have caused property tax bills to jump, too. Coloradans will get new property assessments from their counties starting May 1.

Colorado’s property taxes are among the nation’s lowest. But a big increase in property tax bills will really a ect people with xed incomes, such as retirees, who bought their homes when they were worth much less and weren’t expecting such a large nancial burden.

Gov. Jared Polis and Democrats, who control the Capitol, say they are committed to coming up with a long-term x this year.

Westminster hears update on Northwest Rail Study

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

RTD o cials told Westminster councilors on March 20 that they have not given up on plans for train service to Boulder via Westminster, but said there are questions about funding the service and how often those services would operate.

RTD District J Director Vince Buzek and Patrick Stanley, project manager of northwest rail study, presented the item.

One of their biggest limitations is money. at’s because most of RTD’s budget is provided by sales tax, which means it’s highly a ected by the economy.

“Our budget is dependent upon something that is incredibly variable and out of our control,” Buzek said.  Buzek said that most U.S. transit agencies receive 23% of their money from state funding. RTD receives less than 1% from the state.

Buzek noted that RTD is looking to lower fares in the rst quarter of 2024.

According to Brandon Figliolino, a spokesperson for RTD, the Board of Directors is looking at a plan to combine local and regional fares, and lower the airport fare. A threehour pass would cost $2.75, a day pass $5.50 a monthly pass $88 and the airport fare would be $10, under

No charges in Aug. 2022 Aranda shooting

DA declines to charge sheri ’s deputies

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

O cers will not face charges in the August 2022 shooting of Derrick Aranda, District Attorney Brian Mason announced.

In a March 29 letter to Adams County Sheri Gene Claps, Mason explained his decision to not le charges for an o cer-involved shooting in Adams County on Aug. 5, 2022.

“Based on the evidence presented and the applicable Colorado law, there is no reasonable likelihood of success of proving the elements of any crime beyond a reasonable doubt as it relates to the law enforcement o cers involved in this incident,” the letter reads.

Derrick Aranda died from the shooting.

According to the investigation summary, Aranda failed to appear in Denver County District Court for criminal charges of attempted rstdegree murder. e Denver Police Department Fugitive Unit tracked Aranda to Adams County and contacted the Adams County Sheri ’s O ce.

Aranda had an active warrant for his arrest from the attempted murder case. O cers tracked Aranda and his girlfriend – identi ed in the letter by the initials “L.L.” – through their cell phones and found them to be at her apartment.

e Adams County Sheri ’s O ce Special Enforcement Team created a perimeter around the apartment with unmarked vehicles.

While there, detectives observed a Toyota Prius arriving at the apartment and turning its hazard lights on. e girlfriend left the apartment and entered the driver’s side rear seat.

Soon after, Aranda left the apartment, looked around, and began to walking toward the car. at is when the police began to approach Aranda.

Police ordered Aranda to the ground and he ran to the Prius, entering on therear passenger side and shutting the door.

en police said Aranda went from the backseat to the front seat while holding a black semi-automatic handgun. ree o cers — Deputy Isiah Acosta, Deputy Lance Kestel and Deputy Robert Bacigalupo — then red their weapons. Aranda died from multiple gunshot wounds.

Northglenn considers exterior rules in neighborhoods

Landscaping, driveway material and other zoning changes get April 10 vote

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Northglenn City Council is scheduled to vote on new slate of landscaping requirements and other zoning changes on April 10.

“One of the main drivers behind these landscaping amendments and parking on approved surfaces is to make it easier for the code sta to administer enforcement,” said Brook Svoboda, director of planning and development.

e proposed changes were presented at the March 20 city council meeting and will come through via the Uni ed Development Ordinance.

One change will be to how parties and neighborhood get-togethers are managed. Under the new rules, residential private party and block party events will be exempted from the Temporary Use Permitting approval process and will be approved by other city departments.

Another will allow rock and gravel driveways for single-family zoned districts.

e modi cations will also take a look at how residences are maintained. Currently, single-family homes require 50% of living material for front yard landscaping. e

changes would create a sliding scale based on the size of the front yard and would allow 100% rock or mulch with a minimum tree, shrub and grass requirements for only singlefamily zoned districts.

For lots of 1,000 square feet or less, one tree and either three ve-gallon shrubs or 10 ornamental grasses, perennial owers or a combination of both would be required.

For lots up to 2,000 square feet, one tree and either four ve-gallon shrubs or 12 ornamental grasses, perennial owers or a combination would become the standard.

For bigger lots, two trees and either three ve-gallon shrubs or 10 ornamental grasses, perennial owers or

a combination would be required.

Stuck on stucco

e changes would also allow masonry and synthetic stucco as an exterior nish material for single-family, multifamily dwellings, mixed-use and non-residential buildings.

e plan would prohibit all stucco as means to meet the minimum 30% masonry requirement for multifamily, mixed-used and non-residential buildings.

For businesses and other nonresidential zones, wall and freestanding banners would be up to two and the combined square footage could not exceed 40 square feet. at’s up from 36 square feet.

Colorado Joint Replacement reunites you with the activities you love.

City Councilor Megan Burns asked why people have stucco on their homes and why it wasn’t approved before.

Ashley McFarland from the planning department said a resident came to the city to ask if stucco can be allowed. Svoboda said it wasn’t approved prior because during high periods of development in the 60s, 70s, 90s and 2000s, mostly wood materials were used.

“As people were looking to do additions and make modifications to their homes, it was more or less trying to be more accommodating to residents,” he said.

Burns also asked if someone has a dying tree in their backyard if they have to replace it. McFarland said that if at least half of the material in the front yard is living, the home would be in code.

McFarland said the requirements are mostly looking at if someone dug up their grass, and then would have to have the tree and shrub requirements.

City Councilor Shannon Lukeman-Hiromasa said that two trees seem like a lot and could be a significant financial lift for someone. Svoboda said that those with 2,000 square foot lawns are the lots where the two trees would be required.

City Councilor Tim Long asked if the updates address fire pits. Svoboda said that as long as a fire pit is three feet in diameter, it’s okay. Greater than that, the city and the fire department can respond.

ability to bring costs down by catering to the demand for more multifamily units.

e Westminster City Council approved their revised Comprehensive Plan on second reading on a 5-1 vote at the March 27 city council meeting, with many residents coming to testify both for and against the move.

City Councilor Obi Ezeadi voted no and City Councilor Sarah Nurmela was absent, but she voted no on the rst reading.

“Your vote will increase housing costs, making it more di cult for families to live here. Making it more di cult for young people to start a family or a life of their own,” Hott said.

e plan will decrease residential density while increasing commercial zoning for vacant developable land. With Westminster close to being built out, vacant developable land is less than 3% of the city.

e total area for residential and mixed-use zoning for that land will decrease from 36% to 23%, and the total area for non-residential uses will rise 13 points, from 64% to 77%.

Bryan Head, a founding board member of Westminster’s Chamber of Commerce, had a di erent take. Head spoke in favor of the new

comprehensive plan.

“ is plan allows for responsible growth with some added density, but also considers the limited water resources we have to balance with,” he said.

He said the plan helps current businesses plan for the future and helps businesses looking to relocate to the city “know what to expect.”

“It’s interesting to me that some of the voices now calling for more density or increased a ordable housing have opposed recent votes

on developments that would provide just that,” he said.  Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott said something similar at the March 13 meeting.

“To hear it was irresponsible from someone (Ezeadi) who voted against that, the housing crisis I guess only counts when there aren’t people who are going to get mad at a vote from this chamber,” DeMott said, referring to the Uplands development.

Mr. Ezeadi

While Ezeadi is calling for

more density and a ordable housing, he voted no on the Uplands, as Head, DeMott and others pointed out.

At the Dec. 21, 2021 City Council meeting where the council approved the development, Ezeadi said “I walked a lot of doors in this area during the campaign, not one person ever told me `hey we really want Uplands.”

However, Ezeadi did call for more a ordable housing from the Uplands development during the hearings.

“To solve the housing crisis,

I think we have a lack of affordable housing, real a ordable housing. We call housing a ordable often that’s not a ordable for most people.

at’s why I can’t support this,” he said on Dec. 20, 2021.

Ezeadi also defended his decision at the March 27 meeting.

“I vote and make decisions based on the situation,” he said, adding that the Comprehensive Plan takes away choice from residents due to a lack of diverse housing stock.  Ezeadi apologized for comments he made at the March 13 meeting, saying the city council’s resistance to apartments and multifamily is “... irresponsible and entitled. I don’t like using those words, but someone had to say it.”  e apology came after City Councilor Bruce Baker called Nurmela and Ezeadi out, addressing their comments as “civil hate.”

“I wonder if I would be given any place to exist at all in (Nurmela’s) worldview,” he said.

DeMott said his decision to support the revised Comprehensive Plan comes from balance.

“ is isn’t about not wanting renting, not wanting townhomes, this is about the balance of all those things with the amount of property we have left, with the amount of water we know we have today,” DeMott said.

Tiny home village a vision for a ordable housing group

Plans for 10 units for young adults depends on funding, local approvals

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If Ashley Dalzell has her way, the vacant lot next to her Access Housing o ce in Commerce City will become a tiny home campus, o ering transitional housing for young adults.

Dalzell, executive director for Access Housing, is negotiating to use a plot of land in Commerce City to build tiny homes and expand transitional housing services for families and people under the age of 25, emancipated high school students and young people that have aged out of the foster care system.

Dalzell said she has a grant from Adams County for the development of a traditional eight-unit a ordable housing development. She’d prefer to do something di erent, where the tenants have a bit more privacy.

“We are looking for support for the development and asking the Commerce City Council for approval,” Dalzell said.

Dalzell said her vision is to build a tiny home village and collaborate with various community groups, including local high schools.

“ e tiny home village would be like the ones you see on TV, each with its own kitchen, bathroom and loft with a bedroom,” Dalzell said. “By owning the property, we can invest in the property, and provide a bathroom and kitchen in each individual unit.”

Dalzell said she knows it’s a di erent concept and is excited to work with the city planners and commissioners to bene t a wide variety of individuals and young people that need their assistance with housing –starting with Commerce City.

“We are having preliminary conversations, with the focus on purchasing this piece of property in Commerce City, and also looking at a wide variety of property in Adams County,” she said.

She can’t say when the project will

levard in Commerce City.

“ ese tiny houses have plumbing and bathroom inside the unit. So, launching a tiny home village is another layer of complexity,” Dalzell.

Transitional Housing

Access Housing has called Commerce City home for almost 40 years. ey serve all of Adams County and run a transitional shelter for families with children.

“In our current program here on the property, our sta sees the families daily, and our o ce is next to the shelter,” she said. “Our existing shelter has eight units, each with a two-bedroom apartment with its own bathroom, kitchen, and living room area.”

Dalzell said they prefer to manage smaller housing projects because it lets them have a single case manager

e current development also has a playground, part of the list of services they o er for young families.

“We are also involved in the school district, help with teen skills, job skills or cleaning the apartment, and how to take care of shopping lists that lead to good meal prep for the family and the kids,” Dalzell.

Tiny home planning

Dalzell said their rst tiny home was nished last year in June. It’s currently on display in their parking lot but is ready to go, with bathroom and kitchen facilities ready for hookup. She said they hope to add nine more and move the bunch to the nearby lot.

“We’re hoping that by having this model in Commerce City, we can show them how this really can work and that we’re invested and want to make the long-term connections,” Dalzell said.

ey have also talked with Adams County about the property and the group’s vision, with an eye on future projects.

“We are trying to gure out which communities in Adams County are tiny home friendly and who wasn’t as far as the jurisdiction and trying to understand the complexities of this space,” she said.

eir demonstration home has its own plumbing built-in, which makes it quite di erent from the housing o ered by other housing groups.

“ e tiny home will come to us already built,” she said. “We don’t touch anything regarding building a tiny home. We have to gure out how to hook this up.”

Dalzell said her group had toured tiny home developments around the area to see how they operated.

A Denver-based development, for example, is located on land leased from Denver County. ose developments will have to move their homes every couple of years, when

port or sheltering might look like. So it brought us back to our backyard,” Dalzell said.

Dalzell said that so far both Adams County and Commerce City are supportive. ere are still plenty of details to be settled, however.

“Sometimes they don’t have the answers to our questions but they invite us to the table to talk,” she said. “So far, they support Access Housing’s vision with the village concept.”

Struggling with unknowns

Dalzell said many municipalities struggle with the unknowns regarding a village of tiny homes.

Dalzell said Commerce City has asked questions about potential zoning for the tiny home village and about the building details – whether the development should be zoned as an RV or a mobile home park, for example.   e city needs clari cation, but they have been willing to work with Access Housing so far, she said.

“Each tiny home-friendly municipality doesn’t have the answers today and they are all struggling with it,” she said. “Because there needs to be a shared understanding of what is involved with tiny homes, each municipality is still drafting zone and requirements.”

Dalzell said she is continuing her research, touring other tiny home villages, including some designated for veterans. She hopes to bring some new ideas to the table in future meetings with Commerce City and Adams County.

“We want a small neighborly feel. It’s essential to us,” Dalzell said. “ e other thing that’s very important to us is owning the property to make long-term investments. Add good fencing, trees, colorful gardens, and seating areas to enhance the property. We don’t want them to feel like they are on top of each other.”

This is tiny home one, an example of the tiny homes that Access Housing wants to build.

Stanley said he sees the new train line as complementary to other transit options.

Nurmela asked if RTD would provide exibility to cities regarding parking requirements near stations. Since Downtown Westminster will have a more dense and walkable future, parking requirements may not be as applicable as a more suburban or rural station.

But the legislative session is more than halfway over — the General Assembly adjourns May 8 — and no proposals have been made public.  e governor and lawmakers have committed to expanding an existing property tax relief plan in the 2023 and 2024 tax years to $900 million, $200 million more than what was approved during the 2022 legislative session in a deal that got the nonpro ts to abandon their ballot measures.

“Conversations are obviously ongoing,” Senate President Steve Fenberg, D-Boulder, told reporters. “I know there’s conversations happening with advocates, with connected districts, with businesses etc.”

In the absence of state lawmakers doing something, however, independent groups have stepped in to try to ll the vacuum — and also pressure the General Assembly to get moving.

Advance Colorado, the conservative scal nonpro t, entered the property tax conversation rst this year with Initiative 21, which would be on the November statewide ballot. It would amend the state constitution to cap property tax increases at 3% per property and set aside up to $100 million in state TABOR surplus each year for re districts.

TABOR caps government growth and spending each year based on population increases and the rate of in ation. Any money collected above the cap must be refunded to taxpayers unless voters say otherwise.

Michael Fields, who leads Advance Colorado, said the measure is an insurance policy against legislative inaction this year. “I think we’re wanting to see what the legislature comes up with,” Fields said. “But given that we can’t go back in time, we wanted to get it led and get it through the process.”

e Bell Policy Center, the liberalleaning scal nonpro t, responded last week by ling eight proposed 2023 ballot measures for review by the state’s Title Board. If they are approved, Bell Policy Center can begin collecting signatures to have them placed on the fall ballot.

e measures, submitted in partnership with the Colorado Education Association, the state’s largest teacher union, would reduce or cap property tax increases and/or use

TABOR surplus to replace the revenue lost by school, re district and local water project budgets.

Scott Wasserman, who leads the Bell Policy Center, says the measures are intended to neutralize Initiative 21 from Advance Colorado and also serve as a hedge against legislative inaction on property tax policy this year.

“It is clear from the initiatives already led by those who seek to destroy Colorado’s revenue base that these interests want to undercut the legislature’s ability to address the uneven e ects of a property tax spike,” the Bell Policy Center and Colorado Education Association said in a joint statement. “ e measures we’ve led would restrict the damage of possible statewide reductions or limitations, and ensure communities are adequately funded, while also protecting property taxpayers at this time of increasing property values. In the event the legislature is unable to reach a solution this year, we fully intend to move them forward and supersede any other initiative.”

Here’s the gist of what the Bell Policy Center/Colorado Education Association measures would do, in

some combination:

Direct TABOR surplus — forecast to be more than $2.5 billion in the current scal year ending June 30 — to education, local re districts and water projects to make up for any money lost from property tax assessment rate reductions or caps on Coloradans’ increasing property tax bills. e measures wouldn’t a ect TABOR surplus until the 2023-24 scal year, which begins July 1.

Cap commercial and residential property tax increases at 3% annually, unless a property is valued at more than $2 million or $3 million, depending on the version of the ballot measure. Two of the initiatives would instead limit property tax increases by lowering property assessment rates.

Groups often le several iterations of the same or similar ballot measures and then decide later which one to pursue.

Some of the Bell Policy Center/ Colorado Education Association proposals would change statute and others that would amend the state constitution. Wasserman estimates the changes would reduce property tax revenue by about $800 million. If state economic and tax forecasts are correct, there should be enough TABOR surplus in coming years to replace the de cit.

In reality, it will be very di cult for either Advance Colorado or the Bell Policy Center to get a property tax measure on the November ballot.

It takes time and a lot of money — potentially millions — to go through the Title Board process and then collect the 125,000 voter signatures required to get an initiative on the statewide ballot.

It’s even harder to get a constitutional amendment on the statewide ballot. at comes with the additional requirement that the voter signatures gathered include at least 2% of the registered voters in each of Colorado’s 35 state Senate districts.

Advance Colorado has deep pockets — again, it doesn’t disclose its donors — and Fields has a proven track record of getting scal policy

questions on the ballot.

Bell Policy Center, by comparison, is backed by some wealthy foundations, including Gary Community Ventures, a philanthropic group focused on policy change that helps children and families. But the Bell Policy Center hasn’t really spent the kind of money that Advance Colorado and its associated political nonpro ts have dedicated to ballot measures in recent election cycles.

Fields cast doubt on the Bell Policy Center’s ability to follow through.

“I would encourage Scott and his donors to do some polling on how popular TABOR refunds are with Coloradans. Last time, they couldn’t even get enough signatures to get their tax hike (Initiative 271 in 2020) on the ballot, so it’s hard to believe these are actually serious proposals.”

Wasserman pointed out that Initiative 12 — which would have tied income tax rates to the amount of money people make, charging higher earners more — was a proposed constitutional amendment and that signature gathering for the measure was launched during the pandemic. He said his proposals this year are 100% serious.

“We always are serious when we le measures at the Title Board,” he said. “You can’t just cut local revenue without a back ll for the loss.” ere are also questions about the viability of the proposals from both the Bell Policy Center and Advance Colorado. Properties often fall into multiple taxation districts with different mill levy rates, which determine how much people owe the government.

It would likely be tough for local governments to work together and determine how to cap a property owner’s tax bill.

In exchange for o ering nancial aid to more in-state students, Colorado universities soon could be allowed to admit more students from out of state who pay almost twice as much in tuition.

Universities such as the University of Colorado Boulder have been allowed to admit two out-of-state students for every student they admit who participates in the Colorado Scholars Program. e number of students who can be double-counted has been capped under current law to 8% of in-state students in the incoming freshman class.

House Bill 96, which is close to becoming law, would raise that cap to 15% of in-state freshmen in the program. at higher cap would create an incentive to enroll more Colorado Scholars, who can get $2,500 a year or more in merit aid, so that universities can also enroll more high-paying, out-of-state students.

State o cials and oth-

ers want Colorado colleges and universities to bene t Colorado students as much as possible, since they get taxpayer support. But lawmakers have cut state funding for schools over the years while allowing tuition hikes. at has led schools to look toward out-of-state students to bring in more revenue.

At the same time, the rising tuition has made some students rethink whether universities, especially the state’s agship, are worth the nancial burden, or if they can nd a better deal elsewhere.

e bill would likely have the biggest impact on the University of Colorado Boulder, which backs the proposal. State law requires that

an average of no more than 45% of incoming freshmen at public universities come from out of state, and CU Boulder is near that limit.

University of Colorado System o cials say they would use the increased money from enrolling more out-of-state students to o er Coloradans more merit- and need-based scholarships, and to become more competitive when recruiting in-state students — especially with a smaller pool of college-aged students.

School o cials said the university accepts every quali ed Colorado applicant. But many Colorado students never end up on campus, and the school is able to consistently enroll

Colorado funds its public higher ed institutions at some of the lowest rates in the nation, leading colleges to raise tuition and recruit more out-of-state students who can pay more. Meanwhile, Colorado families carry high tuition burdens compared to other states.

Colorado students pay about $30,000 a year in tuition. Out-of-state students pay about $57,000.

Across all classes, CU Boulder provides $15.5 million in merit aid for about 4,200 students, school ofcials said in a statement. It also supports about 1,700 students through a needbased program that pays for a student’s share of tuition.

O cials at the school said enrolling more out-of-state students is a way to sustain and increase that aid.

University of Colorado System spokesman Ken McConnellogue said in a statement the Boulder campus’ primary focus remains on recruiting, retaining, and graduating Colorado students.

“We believe this bill will

Colorado isn’t the only agship school that’s considered how to weigh in-state student enrollment versus out-of-state enrollment, according to Tom Harnisch, State Higher Education Executive O cers Association vice president for government relations. Because out-of-state students pay higher tuition, universities around the country have lobbied to lift enrollment caps on them as states’ overall spending on higher education has declined in recent years, he said. is year, for instance, North Carolina increased how many out-of-state students its universities can admit.

Similar to what the Colorado bill proposes, some schools have increased merit aid while also increasing the overall number of out-ofstate students on campus, he said. e change doesn’t mean there are fewer in-state students, Harnisch added, just a shift in the share of students not from the state.

Study: 1 in 4 Colorado teens have quick access to guns

BY MARKIAN HAWRYLUK KAISER HEALTH NEWS

One in 4 Colorado teens reported they could get access to a loaded gun within 24 hours, according to survey results published late last month. Nearly half of those teens said it would take them less than 10 minutes.

“ at’s a lot of access and those are short periods of time,” said Virginia McCarthy, a doctoral candidate at the Colorado School of Public Health and the lead author of the research letter describing the ndings in the medical journal JAMA Pediatrics.

e results come as Coloradans are reeling from yet another school shooting. On March 22, a 17-yearold student shot and wounded two school administrators at East High School in Denver. Police later found his body in the mountains west of Denver in Park County and con rmed he had died from a selfin icted gunshot wound. Another East High student was fatally shot in February while sitting in his car outside the school.

e time it takes to access a gun matters, McCarthy said, particularly for suicide attempts, which are often impulsive decisions for teens. In research studying people who have attempted suicide, nearly half said the time between ideation and action was less than 10 minutes. Creating barriers to easy access, such as locking up guns and storing them unloaded, extends the time before someone can act on an impulse, and increases the likelihood that they will change their mind or that someone will intervene.

“ e hope is to understand access in such a way that we can increase that time and keep kids as safe as possible,” McCarthy said.

e data McCarthy used comes from the Healthy Kids Colorado Study, a survey conducted every two years with a random sampling of 41,000 students in middle and high school. e 2021 survey asked, “How

long would it take you to get and be ready to re a loaded gun without a parent’s permission?”

American Indian students in Colorado reported the greatest access to a loaded gun, at 39%, including 18% saying they could get one within 10 minutes, compared with 12% of everybody surveyed. American Indian and Native Alaskan youths also have the highest rates of suicide.

Nearly 40% of students in rural areas reported having access to rearms, compared with 29% of city residents.

e ndings were released at a particularly tense moment in youth gun violence in Colorado. Earlier this month, hundreds of students left their classrooms and walked nearly 2 miles to the state Capitol to advocate for gun legislation and safer schools. e students returned to confront lawmakers again last week in the aftermath of the March 22 high school shooting.

e state legislature is considering a handful of bills to prevent gun violence, including raising the minimum age to purchase or possess a gun to 21; establishing a three-day waiting period for gun purchases; limiting legal protections for gun manufacturers and sellers; and expanding the pool of who can le for extreme risk protection orders to have guns removed from people deemed a threat to themselves or

Education Executive Director Angie Paccione said in February that she didn’t want to see schools become predominantly out-of-state student serving.

But a department spokeswoman said Paccione now believes CU Boulder has demonstrated that all eligible in-state students are accepted at the school — and that accepting eligible resident students is a priority. Paccione no longer has concerns about the legislation.

e bill will also require schools to report how many out-of-state and in-state students schools enroll before the double count occurs,

others.

According to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, rearms became the leading cause of death among those ages 19 or younger in 2020, supplanting motor vehicle deaths. And rearm deaths among children increased during the pandemic, with an average of seven children a day dying because of a rearm incident in 2021.

Colorado has endured a string of school shootings over the past 25 years, including at Columbine High School in 1999, Platte Canyon High School in 2006, Arapahoe High School in 2013, and the STEM School Highlands Ranch in 2019.

Although school shootings receive more attention, the majority of teen gun deaths are suicides.

“Youth suicide is starting to become a bigger problem than it ever has been,” said Dr. Paul Nestadt, a researcher at the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions.

“Part of that has to do with the fact that there’s more and more guns that are accessible to youth.”

While gun ownership poses a higher risk of suicide among all age groups, teens are particularly vulnerable, because their brains typically are still developing impulse control.

“A teen may be bright and know how to properly handle a rearm, but that same teen in a moment of desperation may act impulsively

how schools use revenue for the purpose of aid, and where students that qualify for aid come from in the state.

Colorado needs more homegrown talent from its universities, especially because that state has large gaps when it comes to who gets a degree, said Katie Zaback of Colorado Succeeds, which brings together business leaders to advocate for education.

Zaback, the organization’s vice president of policy, said a priority for Colorado Succeeds is to examine what solutions there are to get more Colorado students access to a

without thinking through the consequences,” said Dr. Shayla Sullivant, a child and adolescent psychiatrist at Children’s Mercy Kansas City. “ e decision-making centers of the brain are not fully online until adulthood.”

Previous research has shown a disconnect between parents and their children about access to guns in their homes. A 2021 study found that 70% of parents who own rearms said their children could not get their hands on the guns kept at home. But 41% of kids from those same families said they could get to those guns within two hours.

“Making the guns inaccessible doesn’t just mean locking them. It means making sure the kid doesn’t know where the keys are or can’t guess the combination,” said Catherine Barber, a senior researcher at the Harvard University T.H. Chan School of Public Health’s Injury Control Research Center, who was not involved in the study. “Parents can forget how easily their kids can guess the combination or watch them input the numbers or notice where the keys are kept.”

If teens have their own guns for hunting or sport, those, too, should be kept under parental control when the guns are not actively being used, she said.

e Colorado researchers now plan to dig further to nd out where teens are accessing guns in hopes of tailoring prevention strategies to di erent groups of students.

“Contextualizing these data a little bit further will help us better understand types of education and prevention that can be done,” McCarthy said.

high-quality education, such as at CU Boulder.

CU Boulder enrolls a group of students that aren’t representative of the state’s high school graduates, she said. And she worries the bill, if it’s enacted, would send a message that Colorado’s best and brightest can only be educated if the state recruits more out-of-state students.

“I wonder if that’s true,” Zaback said. “I wonder what the overall equity implications are.”

A critical eye needed on legislature’s frenzy of bills

more social programs, tenant rights, criminal bills and a lot more. Just so you know, I favor some of those bills.

CROSS CURRENTS

Th e Democratic Party trifecta is living up to the expectation that a plethora of “progressive” bills would be presented and pushed through this session of our state legislature. ey have the votes in both legislative houses along with a willing governor. Remember, this is the “o -year” when none of them are up for re-election. Next year, when they must run for o ce, they will be far more diligent in the selection of which bills to introduce and promote without “rocking the boat” so much.

So, it is a “go man go” frenzy of abortion bills, gun control bills,

Now, they are proposing legislation which would usurp land use and zoning matters from elected city councils and boards of county commissioners under the banner of providing more a ordable housing. is is quite the hustle.

For whatever reason, our state legislators and the governor think they know more about land use matters than those municipal folks who have managed land use for decades upon decades. ey seem to think that by mandating auxiliary dwelling units (ADU’s) in homeowners’ backyards and allowing duplexes (paired-homes), tri-plexes and apartment developments adjacent to major transit corridors that the a ordable housing problem in Colorado will be solved.

If such legislation is passed by the state legislature, it would be a bold, politically charged action which would clearly be fought by municipal interests across the state. It would challenge the legal status and power of home rule cities which all of the larger cities and Denver suburbs work under. It would compromise comprehensive land use planning which cities do.

Most recently, Westminster and Northglenn adopted updated plans to re ect changing times which would be impacted.

Stream lining building regulations has merit

Another component of the Democrats proposal would be to streamline building regulations. While the devil is in the detail, I believe this issue de nitely needs to be tackled.

I would prefer each local elected governing body do this detailed

Another season of new beginnings

The weeks seemed to be piling up, one right on top of the next. With the time ying by so fast, it also seemed as if the to-do list grew longer while the things checked o kept getting shorter or couldn’t keep up with everything that needed to be done and the additional things being added to the list. As they woke up to start another day, she asked her husband, “Why does everything have to be so di cult right now?” She moved across the country with her 4-year-old son to start a new life and to reconnect with family. Her son was having a hard time adjusting to the new time zone, new surroundings, and new family members he had to get to know. His lack of sleep meant that she wasn’t getting any consistent sleep either, and the vicious cycle of no sleep and stress began. Additionally, she started a brand-new job, and he started school for the rst time, causing even greater disruption and stress. She looked in the mirror one morning and asked, “Why does everything have to be so di cult right now?”

son he knew how large and complex deals could take longer than others. He had started the process on a new opportunity many months ago. As with any sales role, pressure comes when deals slip or push month-to-month and quarter-to-quarter. He was doing everything by the book, awlessly following the process and aligning with the buyer’s journey, yet the deal kept slipping. Finally, almost at the nish line to win the business, a week of discussion with the customer’s legal team forced more delays. He asked some of the people on his team, “Why does everything have to be so di cult right now?”

We all know stories like these, don’t we? We have all felt like this at times, haven’t we? I could add several more just like the ones above, but instead, let’s focus on what happens next.

Here we are in another season of new beginnings, and for many of us it is because we associate it with Easter as we celebrate the Risen Christ. In the week and weekend ahead, hope lls our hearts, and our outlook becomes elevated as we have new encouragement and inspiration. For some, it’s just about springtime and the budding of trees, grass turning green again, more sunlight pouring through our window, owers beginning to bloom, and the start of baseball that gives

Another season of new beginnings.

So I say to the couple, the mom and her son, and the professional salesperson all mentioned above, as well as any of us who may be saying the same thing right now, “Let today be a day of new beginnings.” If what we are doing right now isn’t working, let’s start over and develop a new plan that aligns with who we want to be, where we want to go and grow, and what we want to enjoy in this life. Everything will get better for you as a couple, a new, safe, and happy new life awaits you mother and child, and that deal will close as will many others for you in your brilliant sales career. is season of life will pass just like every previous season. If we hold on to the yesterdays of life that have caused us stress, fear, worry, and doubt, we are only anchoring ourselves in that negative cycle of gloom and doom. As Zig Ziglar said, “Failure is an event, not a person, yesterday really did end last night.” It’s time for another season of new beginnings. How about you? Are you asking yourself why things are so di cult right now? Would it be helpful if you could see the light and love at the end of the tunnel? I would love to hear your story at

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

When things change, take advantage

On March 20, 2023, Westminster City council was told that the city will be given the Sheridan Green Elementary School later this year. is wonderful gift should change the fundamentals of our Water 2025 plans. Instead of building the new water plant over a mile from our current plant, we can rebuild Semper and save tens of millions of dollars. Council would be crazy not to make this change.

e Metropolitan Service Center (MSC) has always been a nalist location. e drawback was: what and where would we move, and at what cost. With the donation of the school we can move MSC administrative functions along with the meter shop, the sign shop, the carpentry shop and our storage facilities to Sheridan Green. ere would be very little renovation and expense. All these functions would have less impact on that neighborhood than did the school. In addition the recreation opportunities at the school could now include the entire community.

e space vacated next to Semper would ful ll the missing elements that the renovation plans at Semper lacked. We would not have enough space for lagoons, but mechanical sludge processing is an e cient substitute. Rebuilding Semper gives us 44MGD capacity instead of the 15MGD capacity that all other sites would provide. Not having to build 30MGD additional capacity that all other locations require in less than 20 years, saves hundreds of millions of dollars.

Is Council, that promises to Innovate and Initiate, nimble enough to make the change?

gorilla in the room known as water resources.

One of the pitfalls of using a “one size ts all” approach to land use/ zoning matters is that not every town or city has adequate water resources to implement what the state o cials and builders would cram down municipal o cials’ throats. Let’s say Montrose has plenty of undeveloped land, but very little unencumbered water resources. What would be the process to stop say a 100-unit apartment development when there is not enough water to service those new residents?

Also, look at Westminster with its limited unencumbered water resources or ornton with the possible shut down of new development if their water pipeline project does not nd a way to get approval from the Larimer County Commissioners. You simply cannot wave a magic wane and say, “150 apartment units can go here or there, next to a major RTD bus route.

Trump’s behavior showing its true self Ever since it became quite probable that former President Donald Trump could be indicted for possible illegal handling of campaign funds and trying to hide “hush money” payments to a sex star, he has shown his true self. He has really gone o the rails this time calling Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg every name in the book, challenged his own followers to protest when he is indicted and take back the country. He has raised the specter of civil unrest.

In one of his texts, he stated “IT’S

TIME!!! WE JUST CAN’T ALLOW THIS ANYMORE. THEY’RE KILLING OUR NATION AS WE SIT BACK & WATCH. WE MUST SAVE AMERICA! PROTEST, PROTEST, PROTEST!!!”

It has a familiar ring to the rhetoric he used shortly before the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. He thinks his loyal followers will rise up as they did on that fateful January 6 and protest which would evolve into riots.

In a separate text, Trump even warned of “death and destruction” taking place when he is indicted.

His recent threats of violence and how he and his followers must “save America” reminds me of a favorite movie, “A Few Good Men.” Jack Nicholson plays a career Marine colonel. On the witness stand, he simply “loses it” under questioning and bears his true beliefs and admits the crime justifying why he had to do it.

I think we have seen Trump become the Colonel under new pressure. Trump would be the rst U.S. president to be charged with committing a crime.

Pick the right legal case

With four key legal actions at play against Trump, it would be smart for the Department of Justice (DOJ) orchestrate the selection of the best

legal case with the most impact to be the rst legal indictment.

e case against sex star Stormy Daniels is the least of the four in my humble opinion. Elected o cials are in the news o and on about illicit a airs with sta ers and outsiders way too often. We remember former President Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinski. Former Presidents Eisenhower and Franklin Roosevelt both had alleged a airs with female sta personnel. While the Stormy Daniels’ case is more than an affair which focuses on possible illegal use of campaign funds and the way they tried to hide the $130,000 payment, it is not the main event. While I am not an attorney, my gut tells me Trump’s involvement in the January 6 riot or mishandling of classified government materials at his Mar-a-Lago home have far larger legal consequences and more political consequences. Accordingly, the DOJ should manage the timing of each case as far as when prosecutors would bring indictment charges.

BY RYLEE DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An tiques might seem like a eld that’s struggling to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic, but the local scene in Elizabeth — and elsewhere in Colorado — suggests a renaissance of sorts might be occurring in the industry.

Randy Wallace owns Randy’s Antiques and Art on Main Street in Elizabeth. e bustling scene in town — featuring e Prickly Pear Antiques, e Carriage Shoppes and 1897 House of Antiques, among others — breeds community, not competition, he said.

“ e more stores in town, the better,” Wallace said. “People love to come antique shopping when there are multiple stores. Each one of our shops has a di erent niche, each one has just a little bit di erent style; I think customers enjoy having a di erent variety when they come to Elizabeth.”

Wallace said that while his shop specializes in antique art and furniture, others cater to di erent interests, like the Prickly Pear’s tearoom.

Over in Littleton, Owner Joe Crawford of Old Crow Antiques had the novel idea to add a root beer bar to his shop, with the eventual goal of making the soda section — which currently carries between 60-90 varieties of vintage soda pop at any given time — the largest root beer bar in the world.

Crawford said Old Crow — which he opened three years ago with his brother — is one of the “new kids on the block” in the local

antiquing scene, but said they’ve been welcomed into the scene with open arms.

“I feel like we’re part of a larger community in the metro area,” Wallace said. “ ere are stores throughout the area, and we’ve gotten to know the people who own and work there — some have been here a long time.”

Nostalgia and good, old-fashioned, quality craftsmanship

Antique shops can often sprawl thousands of square feet — Old Crow’s showroom is over 45,000 square feet — packed with items from all eras and purposes. Shopkeepers say that a sense of longing for a di erent time helps people nd what they’re looking for out of the scores of inventories, in addition to the fact that many antiques have stood the test of time for a reason.

“In antique furniture, it’s already lasted 100 years, and — if you take care of it — it’ll last another 100 years,” Wallace said. “A lot of today’s stu is kind of throwaway.”

Julie McCoy, who runs own Unique Treasures Antiques and Collectibles in Wheat Ridge with her parents, echoed Wallace’s sentiment.

“(Antiques are) made so much better,” McCoy said. “ ey’re around 100 years later for a reason. It’s not like Ikea stu that you put together and throw away. It’s good quality

stu that’s built to last. It builds a lot of memories with people.”

People also point to childhood nostalgia or family memories as reasons for antique shops’ sustained popularity.

“(People seek out) childhood memories,” McCoy said. “Stu that’ll last, people come in and say, ‘My mom had this,’ they need to have that again to relive their childhood.”

Crawford said his family got into the antiques business because of a love for history and historic items cultivated from time spent with grandparents as kids.

“We tell people it’s a walk down memory lane,” Crawford said. “You’ll see something that reminds you of another time, maybe a simpler time, or childhood. Something you haven’t thought of in maybe 50, 60 years.

“I’ll be reminded of my grandma, my family and that’s what it is for me, the stories and experiences of everything that’s here,” Crawford continued. “We say, ‘ ere are a lot of ghosts under this roof.’”

Colorado snowpack tops 140% in good year

Reservoirs remain low

BY JERD SMITH FRESH WATER NEWS

Colorado is awash in white this spring, with statewide snowpack topping 140% of average this week, well above the reading a year ago, when it stood at just 97% of normal.

“Conditions in the American West are way better than they were last year at this time,” state climatologist

Russ Schumacher said at a recent joint meeting of the Water Availability Task Force and the Governor’s Flood Task Force. “In Colorado we went from drought covering most of the state to most of the state being out of drought.”

Like other Western states, mountain snowpacks in Colorado are closely monitored because as they melt in the spring and summer, their runo delivers much of the state’s water.

A drought considered to be the worst in at least 1,200 years has devastated water supplies across the West. While no one is suggesting the dry spell is over, Colorado water ofcials said 2023 will likely allow for a signi cant recovery in reservoirs and soil moisture.

e snow is deepest in the southwestern part of the state, where the San Juan/Dolores river basin is seeing a snowpack of 179% of average.

e Yampa Basin, in the northwest

corner of Colorado, is also nearing historic highs, with snowpack registering 145% of average, according to the Natural Resources Conservation Service Snow Survey.

ere is considerably less white stu east of the Continental Divide in the Arkansas River Basin, where snowpack remains slightly below average and in the South Platte Basin, where snowpack is just above average.

e outlook for the seven-state Colorado River Basin has improved dramatically as well, with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, in its March 15 report, showing that Lake Powell is likely to see some 10.44 million acre-feet of new water supply by the end of September, or in ows at 109% average.

e Colorado River Basin includes seven states, with Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming comprising the Upper Basin and

Arizona, California and Nevada making up the lower basin. And it is in the mountains of the Upper Basin, especially in Colorado, where most of the water for the entire system is generated. at Colorado is seeing such spectacular snow levels this spring, bodes well for everyone. “ is is good news for the Colorado River Basin, no doubt about that,” Schumacher said.

Still the drought-strapped Colorado River system will see little storage recovery this year, according to Reclamation, which is forecasting that Lake Powell will see storage at just 32% of capacity by the end of the year. It had dropped to just 23% of capacity last year, prompting ongoing emergency releases from Utah’s Flaming Gorge Reservoir to help keep the system from crashing.

Within Colorado, statewide reservoir storage this month stands at

80% of average, up slightly from this time last year when it registered 75% of average.

Reservoirs within Colorado are expected to see a signi cant boost in storage levels. Colorado’s largest reservoir, Blue Mesa, was just 36% full earlier this month, but is projected to receive enough new water this year that it will be 71% full by the end of the year, according to Reclamation.

Flood task force o cials said the deep snows, particularly in the southwestern and northwestern corners of the state, could cause ooding this spring and summer, especially if there is a series of hot, dry, windy days or major rain storms.

“We are blessed in large part because our snowpack tends to run o in a well-behaved manner,” said Kevin Houck, section chief of watershed and ood protection at the Colorado Water Conservation Board. “But I will say that I am watching things more closely this year. It’s not just the presence of snow that creates our problems. It needs to have a trigger as well. e classic trigger is the late spring warmup. And what can cause even more damage is when we get rain on snow as well.”

Study sees need for EV chargers

BY MICHAEL BOOTH THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado’s electric vehicle-hungry car buyers are on pace to make EVs 25% of new car sales by 2025, according to a new three-year review by state o cials, but energy leaders must build thousands more charging ports over two years to keep pace.

If Colorado stays on track for 65,000 light-duty EV sales in 2025, governments and utilities need to have installed or at least awarded 1,700 ultrafast DC chargers and 5,800 slower Level 2 public chargers by then, according to the “2023 Electric Vehicle Plan,” the rst since 2020.

Transportation is the leading source of greenhouse gas emissions in Colorado, and one of the larg-

est local sources for ozone-causing emissions that lead to EPA rule violations. Colorado set goals for 26% greenhouse gas reductions from a 2005 baseline by 2025, and 50% by 2030. ose goals have long depended on getting 940,000 EVs on state roads by 2030. U.S. statistics show about 1.6 million light duty cars registered in Colorado.  Colorado car sales included 10.5% EVs in 2022, up sharply from 6% in 2021. Coloradans buy about 200,000 to 220,000 new light-duty cars a year.  Colorado had 719 DC fast chargers in place by the end of 2022, and 3,750 Level 2 chargers, the report said. Adding thousands of ports with federal and state money in coming years includes targeting both business and tourism corridors. Colorado has $56.5 million to build DC fast chargers along federally designated interstates and other major roads, and also plans to increase the number of “electri ed byways” on state Scenic & Historic Byways to 23 by 2025 from three in 2020 .

e e ort for an “electric future,” as the Colorado Department of Transportation describes it, is led by CDOT, the Colorado Energy O ce and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

“We’re awarding grants to help build fast-charging stations across the state and to fund EV repair technician training,” CDOT Executive Director Shoshana Lew said.

e 2023 plan looks backward and forward. “ is plan moves us closer to our EV adoption goals and closer to the low emissions future we all want,” Lew said.

Colorado, federal agencies and utilities are all boosting their tax credits and rebates for buying lightduty EVs, which include passenger cars, SUVs, minivans and most pickups. With the lucrative rebates and a rapidly expanding menus of EVs in varying sizes from popular manufacturers, light-duty sales are on track.

To spread electri cation into all modes of transportation, Colorado should facilitate electric bike rebates for 10,000 low- and moderate-income residents by 2025, the report said. Denver’s city-funded program for e-bike discount vouchers has helped more than 5,000 people buy bikes, city o cials said this month.

A next major challenge is swapping out diesel-burning medium- and heavy-duty trucks for electric or hydrogen fuel cell drive trains. e new plan sets goals of 30% zeroemission truck sales by 2030, with 35,000 on the road by then — from virtually none now. e Air Quality

Control Commission in April will hold hearings and vote on adopting California’s existing Advanced Clean Trucks standard for medium- and heavy-duty sales in Colorado, with required levels of new sales that ramp up beginning with the 2027 model year.

Trucking industry o cials say Colorado’s goals will be a steep challenge, as there are few alternativedrive heavy trucks on the market. Colorado’s cold weather and steep terrain will also sap the available life from heavy truck batteries, and battery packages that can weigh 8,000 pounds replace money-making payloads for larger trucks, they say.

If electric or hydrogen-drive trucks are not widely available for the next few years, the new EV plan commits Colorado to work on programs or rebates to replace older, highemissions trucks with newer fossil fuel models. e trucking industry says the newest vehicles emit 90% less nitrogen oxide, a key element in Colorado’s ozone violations, than current standards.

e state EV plan also sets goals of converting the entire public transit eet to zero-emission vehicles no later than 2050, and retirement of all diesel or gas school buses by 2035.

Thinking outside the den

BY KEVIN SIMPSON THE COLORADO SUN

On the caretaker’s property adjacent to the local state wildlife area, sheets of structural steel, once blanketed by snow but now tickled by tumbleweeds, sit stacked on the ground awaiting their eventual transformation.

Inside a nearby outbuilding sits the nished product the raw materials soon will replicate, once it’s their turn to be cut, welded and shaped into a contraption state o cials have been craving for years: a better, lighter, more versatile bear trap.

Je Belveal, the 36-year-old Colorado Parks and Wildlife resource technician who took on the project, notes that his little slice of paradise on the plains may be home to a seemingly inordinate number of white-tailed deer, but there’s not a bear in sight. And metalworking, while among the skills he honed in pursuit of an agency gig, gures only tangentially into a job description that includes maintenance and upkeep of ve state wildlife areas — everything from cleaning the toilets to xing fence lines, maintaining roads, managing grazing and weed mitigation.

“ is is extra credit,” Belveal says of the bear trap project. “All I

brought to the table here was a willingness to tackle the problem.”

Colleagues will tell you it’s much more than that, and talk at length about how Belveal’s retiring and self-e acing personality short-sells a skilled and dedicated worker. In fact, a lifetime of persistence and a penchant for problem-solving put him at the center of a collaborative e ort to reimagine a trap for safely and e ectively capturing problematic black bears — the only bear species living in Colorado — to relocate them, avoid putting them down and reduce chances of further con ict.

“Je just doesn’t do anything halfway,” says Frank McGee, who supervised Belveal when the project

Wildlife o cials turn to guy who never caught a bear to make a better bear trap

Frank McGee, Colorado Parks and Wildlife law enforcement training manager who formerly supervised Je Belveal on the bear trap project

began, before becoming CPW’s law enforcement training manager. “He’s very self-motivated as well, and I’ve always appreciated the way he takes pride in his work. He takes each and every part of his job seriously.”

Colorado Parks and Wildlife estimates that the state’s bear population hovers between 17,000 and 20,000. A spring freeze or drought conditions can su ciently infringe on natural food sources to nudge bears into close contact with humans — circumstances that people often exacerbate through behavior that encourages interaction and often, much to wildlife o cers’ dismay, leads to fatal consequences for the bears.

Since the implementation of a new statewide bear reporting system in 2019, CPW has logged over 18,300 sightings and con icts with bears, and nearly one-third of them involved enticements like trash cans and dumpsters. e problem has become pervasive enough that CPW recently announced it will be continuing a $1 million competitive grant program launched with state funding two years ago for local projects aimed at reducing bear con ict. When bears persist, traps may be used to capture, tag and release them — one important strategy to avoid putting them down. Since

Leaving basketball for golf in Larkspur program

BY ALEX K.W. SCHULTZ SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

After playing basketball since he was hardly bigger than a basketball, playing and coaching hoops at the collegiate level, and working for an NBA team’s minor league squad, Davyon Collins is taking his knowledge and skills to … e golf course?

Yes, the golf course. It actually makes perfect sense once you’ve gotten to know who Collins is and what the 26-year-old stands for.

Last year, the Houston native packed his bags and headed north to begin working as the second-ever PGA WORKS Fellow for the Colorado PGA Section, which is based in Larkspur.

Funded by the PGA of America’s charitable arm, PGA WORKS is a strategic initiative designed to diversify the golf industry’s workforce. e fellowship program o ers a one-year, paid immersion in the Colorado PGA Section, giving fellows a taste of what a career in the golf industry can provide.

Collins said the game of basket-

ball opened many doors for him. He earned a bachelor’s degree from Dallas Christian College, where he played point guard and was a four-year Academic All-American and voted team captain his senior season. He received a master’s degree from Dallas Baptist University, where he spent two seasons as a graduate assistant. After graduating from DBU, he spent a year on the Southwestern Assemblies of God men’s basketball coaching sta . His education and knowledge of the game helped him land a community development and gameday operations gig with the Texas Legends, who are the Dallas Mavericks’ NBA G League a liate.

Now, the basketball lifer is turning his attention to the world of 9-irons and birdies and fairways, hoping to use the game of golf to open doors for others, including and perhaps especially those who didn’t know those doors existed in the rst place.

“ e game of golf is kind of tucked away,” Collins said. “People know about it because it’s in front of their faces, but I’ll ask someone the question, ‘Have you seen a course? ere’s a course two minutes away that you pass by every day that you don’t know anything about.’”

Collins said people will drive by the same golf course time and again without ever thinking about stopping for any number of reasons: they fear they’ll be judged for their golf skills, or lack thereof; they don’t even know where to begin (“Should I get a cart rst?” “Where do I even get a cart?” “Where’s the driving range?” “Does this course have a dress code?”); or, worse yet, they may feel like they don’t “belong” based on their sex or the color of their skin.

Hop online and you’ll see what Collins is getting at. A Google search for “PGA Tour player demographics” yields results like “Golf’s Lack of Color” and “Diversity Remains Golf’s Biggest Challenge.”

According to a Golf Diversity & Inclusion Report published a few years ago, the makeup of American golfers at all levels is 77% male and 80% white. Among golfers in the professional ranks, 75% are male and 86% are white. And golfindustry workers — everyone from caddies to greenskeepers — are 90% male and 88% white.

“Out of all the sports, other than hockey, I would say golf has the most room for growth when it

“Equal opportunity levels the playing eld.”

is is what is stated on the Chance Sports website to capture the new nonpro t’s sense of urgency about raising money so young Denver-area athletes can participate in more club sports, both locally and on the road. “... and makes it about the talent not the success,” the website continues. “ e reason a kid doesn’t make it shouldn’t be because they don’t have the opportunity.”

State Sen. James Coleman, DDenver, and former state Rep. Colin Larson, R-Je erson County, created Chance Sports in late 2022, with the goal of helping low-income families play on a club basis in basketball, football, volleyball, track and eld, cheer, eld hockey, soccer and more. ey formed the idea from when the two served together on an education committee at the state legislature. ey joined up with the Daniels Fund, which gave Chance Sports $300,000 and pledged another $200,000 to encourage matching donations. e late cable pioneer Bill Daniels, a former Golden Gloves boxer, said that his sports participation drove his massive business success in the cable industry.

“It means more opportunities for our youth to compete at a high level because it’s more a ordable,” Coleman said. “ ey’re really great kids, great athletes, and they’re committed and want to play but they can’t a ord it.”

comes to diversity and inclusion,” Collins, an African American, said. “ e game is, to be totally honest, an older, male game. It’s mostly 45-andolder men who play it.

“I feel like within the game of golf, you don’t need the money.

e money (to enhance the game’s diversity and inclusion e orts) is there. You just need people who care about other people.”

Collins wants to be and has been one of those people.

As the local PGA WORKS Fellow, he supported PGA REACH Colorado’s charitable programs, which include the Colorado PGA Junior Tour; the PGA Jr. League; Golf in Schools; Drive, Chip & Putt; and PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) — all of which are designed to grow the game of golf and make this “tucked away” game available to people of all ages, ethnicities and skill levels.

“My heart’s in growing the game and getting it into the hands of people who have never played,” Collins said. “For me, it’s really important to get them in the game so they can teach their children and so on and so on, and also to break the ‘ is is a 45-year-old white man’s sport’ stereotype.”

Apparently, Collins is doing the job he was hired to do … and then some.

Six months into his one-year fellowship, which began in May 2022, he was o ered a full-time job with the Colorado PGA Section. He’s now the manager of the section’s Junior Development Series, which gives players ages 6-18 an opportunity to gain competitive golf experience in a more relaxed and fun environment.

In addition to now managing the junior series, Collins is still supporting all the national initiatives he promoted while working as a fellow,

March. In the news conference, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock said the city would give at least $200,000 to the nonpro t to match the Daniels Fund. e money will come from the $12.5 million the city got from the Broncos sale.

Scholarships range from about $1,000 to about $3,000 per athlete, per year/season.

e new organization gave its rst scholarships this winter to Denver basketball players. Athletes in other sports will receive money later this year.

e average U.S. family pays about $900 each year for one child’s primary sport, taking into account equipment costs, monthly fees, participation fees and travel expenses.

Chance Sports “is designed to help increase participation and to help supplement the costs for travel, fees and equipment,” said Rodney Bates, who has coached the Lady Blackhawks girls’ basketball team for 14 years, and overall has 24 years as a coach.

“It allows young ladies in my program to have the opportunity to showcase their talent at a national level,” Bates said. “In some house-

including the Drive, Chip & Putt junior skills competition.

In fact, Collins will be at the Masters Tournament next week at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia to help coordinate the Drive, Chip & Putt National Championship, which will take place the Sunday before the Masters tees o on April 6. ink about that for a moment — a 26-year-old who had never played golf or even swung a club before landing the fellowship will be at professional golf’s biggest event.

“I can’t wait. It’s going to be so exciting,” said Collins, who eventually wants to work in a diversity and inclusion capacity for the PGA of America. “ e practice rounds are what I’m most excited about. I’ve heard those are the best.”

It’s safe to say that a door to a world Collins initially knew nothing about was opened to him.

He’s waded into that world.

holds, college is not a conversation because of the costs. But because of their skill and being able to demonstrate this at a national level, they have a chance to get a scholarship and follow aspirations beyond sports. In the last 13 years, we’re talking about hundreds of young ladies playing year-round.”

His rst group of players were in the fourth grade when he formed the team. ey graduated from high school in 2020.

“We have about 15 young ladies that went to college,” Bates said. “We want to give them the tools they need to go to college. Competitive basketball is very expensive. If we can break down that cost, more participate and the more we’ll see them do something really positive.”

e bene ts? Larson pointed out that being involved in sports can help boost GPAs, can contribute to better mental and physical health, closer friendships, high rates of volunteerism and voting in later years.

Where to find food assistance programs in Denver metro area

BY ELLLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Low-income households face a tighter budget this month as the program that helps families in Colorado buy food saw its pandemic-era funding boost come to an end.

Coloradans who receive bene ts from the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, had received an extra amount of bene ts every month since March 2020 in response to the coronavirus pandemic.

e extra amount, or “emergency allotments,” were authorized by Congress, but they ended due to recent congressional action. A nal emergency allotment was issued in February, according to the Colorado Department of Human Services.

If you’re struggling with the drop in bene ts, it may help to turn to local programs and organizations.

BEAR TRAP

2015, CPW has relocated 461 bears.

But over the years, more than a dozen wildlife areas across the state have accumulated such a variety of traps that on many occasions o cers scramble to nd the right one for a particular situation. Many of them are old and crusted with rust. And so began the quest to sift through the features and shortcomings of the agency’s rapidly deteriorating collection and build a better bear trap — preferably one that could be adapted to any situation.

If possible, it would be produced in-house, a more economical option than buying from a vendor, which could run $25,000 per trap.

Belveal has been working on the project in ts and starts over the last two years, and so far has completed four of the six planned for his home Area 14, a swath of the state reaching from Teller County, through Colorado Springs and clear to the Kansas state line. At a cost of about $5,000 in materials plus his time on the clock, the nished traps have saved the agency an estimated $80,000.

And though the rst tests of the traps still lie ahead, CPW has been so thrilled with Belveal’s ingenuity, persistence and attention to detail that the agency recently named him its outstanding technician of the year. But his can-do legacy was forged well before he reshaped a critical tool for dealing with problem bears.

Walking across his property at the edge of the Flagler State Recreation Area, Belveal extends a friendly,

down-home demeanor and a viselike handshake that o ers no hint of the physical trials of his childhood.

Born seven weeks premature at 3 pounds, 7 ounces, he was diagnosed with cerebral palsy that triggered symptoms known as hemiplegia, muscle atrophy that weakened the entire right side of his body. With a right leg an inch shorter than his left, he walked with a limp and, into his middle school years, slept in a brace to stretch his tendons.

“My dad and mom never made excuses for me because of my disability,” Belveal says. “I was never a victim, always encouraged and told I could do anything any other man could do.”

Belveal’s parents divorced when he was 10, and he initially lived with his mom in Karval and later Brush. At 15, he moved in with his dad, who moved to Colorado Springs so Belveal could attend a small Christian high school. ere, he spent his freshman year lifting weights to aid his rehabilitation. e following year he took up wrestling.

In his rst year of competition, he spent virtually every match pinned to the mat. When he nally broke through with a victory his junior year, he built on that success with a work ethic and irrepressible attitude that earned him the admiration of his coach and teammates — and a winning record. A late-season injury left him with broken ribs and then pneumonia, and the physical toll simply wore him out and left him just short of earning a trip to the 2006 state tournament.

e drive that powered him to persevere didn’t stop with his prep wrestling career, and he has often

leaned into its lessons. “I use and bene t from the mental toughness that sport requires on a daily basis,” he says. “You know how to dig deep. If I have a hard project or physically demanding task, I go back to my wrestling experience.

“It’s the same attitude when you’re ghting a guy and you’re on your back. Just never give up. You gotta just keep trying until something works. I apply that subconsciously to everything I do.”

His other passion — the outdoors — led him to volunteer for work building trails and helping with other conservation projects. One experience in particular left a lasting impression: a stint shadowing a CPW wildlife technician.

e way he gured it, the job essentially amounted to farming and ranching for the government, a means to spend a career immersed in the work and lifestyle he loved. From that moment, he adopted a single-minded focus: One day, he would land a job with Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

e most direct route might have been to pursue a college degree, but Belveal, though a more than respectable student, didn’t gure he was cut out for that. He noticed that the agency’s job requirements o ered him a loophole — a college degree or relevant work experience.

“I chose what was most natural to me, which was working, and I went for the relevant experience route,” he says. “And everything I did for those years leading up to getting a full-time job was focused on getting experience that would translate to my hireability with Parks and Wildlife.”

Belveal volunteered almost daily

with CPW for years, intent on impressing the agency with his work ethic. He started down a professional path by taking a job with El Paso County Parks. Still, he felt he also needed to establish some trade skills to bolster his résumé. When his dad opened his own steel fabrication shop, Belveal worked for him full time from 2009-12 to get his certication as a structural steel welder. He melded that experience with his continued CPW volunteer work. After six or seven tries — and rejections, at a time when an open CPW position drew hundreds of applicants — he gures his perseverance eventually just overwhelmed the agency.

“I got to know the HR gals and you know, they were rooting for me because I tried so many times it was kind of embarrassing,” Belveal says. “But every time I applied I learned something and would come back, you know, a little better the next time.”

In 2012, he nally got full time CPW work as a resource technician at Lake Pueblo State Park. Five years later, he landed his dream job, transferring to the Eastern Plains to live and work as a wildlife technician on a state-owned property just east of Flagler.

e bear trap project has cemented his credentials.

Colorado GOP starts battle against open primary

BY CAITLIN KIM COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO

e Colorado GOP is taking its rst step towards closing the Republican primary.

In a letter sent to the Federal Election Commission last week, the Colorado Republican State Central Committee and its new chairman Dave Williams asked for “an advisory opinion” on whether the party can “establish a legal fund to challenge the constitutionality” of Colorado’s open primary election law.

“ e Colorado Republican Committee wishes to explore

a lawsuit against the State of Colorado, which would challenge the constitutionality of Proposition 108,” stated the letter, written on behalf of the party by attorneys with Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck. e legal fund would defray the costs of legal action.

In 2016, Colorado voters approved Proposition 108, which allowed una liated voters, now the state’s largest bloc, to vote in either the Republican or Democratic primary. e law does have a provision allowing a party to opt out of the open primary system and instead pick its candidates through a caucus process, but 75 percent of the members of the state central committee must support the move.
