Adams County moves to new district Redistricting commission approves plan by 11-1 vote

BY SANDRA FISH, THY VO, AND JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

The 12 members of Colorado’s Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission agreed on an overhaul of the state’s U.S. House districts Sept. 28 in a vote taken minutes before a self-imposed deadline.

The map would create three safe seats for Democrats, three safe seats for Republicans and two seats that could go either way.

Under the plan, the Adams County cities of Northglenn, Thornton, Commerce City and Brighton would be part of the brand-new 8th Congressional District, as would most of Westminster and Fort Lupton in Weld County.

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

Most of Jefferson County would be in the 7th Congressional District, while Clear Creek County would be assigned to the 2nd District.

The proposal was approved by an 11-1 vote just before midnight after seven rounds of voting and hours of contentious debate. The map was

sent to the Colorado Supreme Court, which could adopt the plan by Nov. 1 or send it back to the commission for revisions. Legal challenges are expected.

The map being sent to the court is an amended version of a staff plan released earlier in September. It received votes from three Democrats, four Republicans and four unaffiliated commissioners on the 12-member panel.

Democratic Commissioner Simon Tafoya, a Denver Democrat, was the lone vote against sending the proposal to the Supreme Court.

Eight votes, including from two unaffiliated commissioners, were

required for the map to be approved.

“Despite the proverbial bumps in the road, … together we have changed the course of congressional redistricting in Colorado, and provide an example for the rest of the country,” said a tearful Commissioner Lori Schell, an unaffiliated voter from Durango.

The map, should it be approved by the court, will be used in the 2022 congressional elections in Colorado, the outcomes of which could determine partisan control of the U.S. House. Democrats currently control four of Colorado’s seven congressional seats.

The most competitive district un-

der the new map would be the new, heavily Hispanic 8th District based in the north Denver metro area and stretching into Greeley.

Democrats would have a 1.3 percentage point advantage in the district, based on the results of eight statewide races between 2016 and 2020.

Colorado’s seven incumbent U.S. House members would still live in their respective districts under the proposal, though in some instances those districts would be vastly different.

Girl Scouts may have started out focused on eight basic badges when the program started more than a century ago but times have changed and the program is upgrading its fundamentals.

“The Girl Scouts was founded over 100-years ago, so when the program started they focused on eight legacy badges. These badges are what started the program. They wanted to teach young girls how to be leaders within their community and to have a voice,” said Emily Speck Girl Scouts Colorado Program Director.

The badges are skill-building, so each badge represents a specific topic to learn a new skill and knowledge. Over the years, the Girl Scouts evolved to include whatever the girls wanted to do and be when they get older and to explore the world they live in. Since the 1900s, the Girl Scouts have developed 250 badges, so if a girl scout is interested in learning something new there is a badge for it, Speck said.

“It a really good time exploring skills and knowledge but also discover about a topic that is connected with themselves, and then hopefully take action within their community to help others,” said Speck.

This summer, the national program unveiled a series of badges focused on STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.

With the new STEM program, the girls can learn Math, the Cookie Business, and also Digital Leadership. Thornton Girl Scout Allison Estrada, 13, with Troop 62816 said she’s ready to learn.

“I think it’s a good idea to learn a wide range of knowledge and it’s really interesting too,” Estrada said.

“You can bring it up in conversations, meet new people, and new opportunities. Also, learning, science, technology, engineering, and math-

it’s just cool.”

Estrada said she is very involved with her community and exploring opportunities to help others and animals too. Estrada participates in a webinar called “Meet the Expert” by spreading “hope and happiness,” which earned her the Girl Scouts silver award for her work.

“I wanted to help in this time of COVID. During the pandemic, everything is dark- a lot of people are sad - a lot of negativity. I wanted to spread joy and happiness to a lot of people and help them feel better,” said Estrada.

She also volunteers in another program to help rabbits get adopted earning a bronze award.

At the shelter, it was being filled with a lot of rabbits, and they were going to be euthanized. It was getting overcrowded and there wasn’t enough space for the rabbits to be healthy, said Estrada. “ I wanted to let people know that rabbits were an option for a pet too. And apparently, two rabbits ended up getting adopted and it made me happy.”

At the national level, the Girl Scouts initiative is to see more girls interested in STEM. Also teaching them about digital leadership with apps, devices, phones, and tablets.

Estrada’s favorite subject is Language Arts at Century Middle School.

“I like being able to put my thoughts into writing and reading and writing in general,” said Estrada.

Speck has been Director with the Girls Scouts for four years. She comes from generations of girl scouts her mom and sisters were also girl scouts. Her mom was a troop leader and met her best friend in girls scouts and have been best friends ever since.

“I wanted to work with the organization, and when some opportunities opened, I was fortunate to be able to work with them,” said Speck.

Speck, said they are encouraging the girls to step back to take a look at what they are doing on social media, what is their footprint, how does it make them feel and how is

their mental wellness experience on these apps. Also, to take a deeper thought about interacting in the digital environments.

“I’m excited about the two stem badges that came out this summer.

The math in nature, which is all about what it sounds like, it’s how you can find math in the outdoors.

Things like the Fibonacci sequence learning about patterns, colors such as the number of petals on how it connects with math,” said speck.

The Girl Scouts have conducted research and have lots of data that the programs the girl scouts participate in are excelling in school.

“The girls excel on their selfesteem, confidence, and speaking up in the classroom to being a leader in their community. They engage in positive relationships across the board, they are outperforming stronger than those that weren’t able to participate in Girl Scouts,” said Speck.

When Estrada grows up she would like to be a Neurosurgeon, meanwhile, she also loves the outdoors, fishing and archery.

Estrada’s mother, Ana Lucia Martin del Campo, said she is proud of Allison accomplishments.

“I think the Girl Scouts is an amazing organization because they help the girls with lots of opportunities and to see a lot of places,” said del Campo.

Burning truck at center of emergency training exercise Multi-city first responders practice in a real-world scenario

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It was a tense moment Sept. 30 as plumes of black smoke poured out of the back of a burning pick-up truck parked at Exxon Travel Center at Interstate 25 and State Highway 52 in Frederick.

Crews from multiple city fire de-

partments – Fort Lupton, Brighton, Frederick, Keenesburg, and Boulder Mountain View – were on hand, but unsure how to respond. They didn’t know why the truck was burning.

Did it contain a bomb? Was there a risk of a chemical spill?

The Incident Command Center was quickly set up at the site while the Command Operations Center was set up at the nearby Carbon Valley Emergency Response Center, ready to be a communication and resource in case things went badly and a mass evacuation became necessary.

Luckily, it was a test. It was the

Weld County multi-city emergency response exercise scenario that is set up annually with emergency responders and several government agencies preparing for an actual emergency.

“You have a call-in, a suspicious vehicle parked with smoke coming out of it. It is a real-world scenario and the emergency responders have no idea until they get there and start working through it, “ said Jennifer Finch, Weld County Public Information Officer.

Mayor questions Thornton councilor’s residency status Councilor Jacque Phillips says home is Thornton, despite job in San Luis Valley

BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Thornton City Councilors were expected to go into a closed-door executive session Oct. 5, after press time, to discuss whether Ward 1 City Councilor Jacque Phillips is really living in her ward.

Phillips, elected to the City Council in 2015, was hired in June as the executive director for the San Luis Valley’s Board of Cooperative Education Services, an Alamosa-based group of 14 southern Colorado school districts. The group is designed to offer cooperative programs to those individual districts, their teachers, students and families.

Programs can include education and education technology support, special education support and health and CPR training.

The residency issue arose at the City Council’s Sept. 28 meeting when Thornton resident Evan Underwood brought it up during the public comment period.

“It doesn’t seem at all like you were being transparent with your Ward 1 residents on what

your full-time job is and how that affects your capacity to truly represent Ward 1,” Underwood said. “If anything, it seems as if you were going out of your way to cover up your new life change in Alamosa.”

Phillips has been Phillips critical of Thornton Mayor Jan Kulmann, recently noting that the mayor attended a reception at the White House in Washington, D.C., in August without informing all the city councilors.

Later in the Sept.

28 meeting, Kulmann Kulmann promised to bring the matter to councilors during a planned executive session Oct. 5.

“There are a lot of questions and concerns I have, and the council needs to understand the risk that we have been put in by this information being withheld, especially for this long, and how our charter requires us to respond,” Kulmann said. “The only other thing I’ll say for now is that this is disappointing. And it’s interesting how transparency is the battle cry, except when it’s not.”

In a heated exchange between the mayor and Phillips that followed, the councilor said it was not an issue and said she

discussed the position with the Thornton city attorney.

“I don’t know what this is right now, but I don’t think a mayor can go after a councilor like this in public comments,” Phillips said.

Interim City Attorney Bill Tuthill said the councilor’s new job was news to him.

“I don’t know what Ms. Phillips is talking about in terms of talking to the attorney,” Tuthill said. “I will tell you, I have had no conversation with her about this topic.”

A big so what Speaking via telephone later, Phillips said she attended the Sept. 28 meeting via teleconferencing app Zoom and said that she was in Alamosa at the time.

She plans to attend Oct. 5’s executive session in person, however.

“They seem to think I suddenly took a five-day-a-week job in Alamosa and have moved. That is completely wrong,” Phillips said.

“I run a law office. Do I also have this executive director job? Yes. Do I also have other jobs? Yes. I’ve always done contract work all over the place. This is not the thing they think it is.”

Phillips, an attorney, said she works with clients around the country regularly. She’s worked with clients in Aspen and Washington, D.C., traveling to those cities regularly. She maintains her home and her office in Ward

1 Thornton.

“I live in Thornton,” she said.

“That’s easy to research. Look at my voter record. Look at my house. There is no problem, and there should never be a question of if I live in Thornton.”

Phillips said much of her work requires her to have signed, non-disclosure agreements and that she is not allowed to discuss many of the details of that work.

Phillips said the controversy is political, designed to make her look bad, and that she has done nothing wrong.

“This is the mayor coming after me. They want to steal the Ward 1 seat by coming up with a reason why the seat should be vacant,” she said.

She said she regularly attends council meetings via Zoom, including meetings where she is not in the city. She couldn’t say how often she had attended a Thornton meeting while being out of town and also could not say the last time she attended a Thornton meeting while at her home in Thornton.

She said she is confident that she has the support of her Ward 1 constituents.

“This idea that because I have one of my jobs and it is not in Thornton, I don’t know what it is,” she said. “It’s a big ‘So what?’

So one of my jobs is outside of Thornton. So what? So I can’t serve on the council? That makes no sense.”

Tri-County Health services cover more than COVID

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While much emphasis has been put on the COVID-19 work done by the Tri-County Health Department, the agency also provide dozens of unrelated, often unnoticed services that impact the daily lives of the residents they serve.

Those services -- and how to keep them running -- will come into play as Douglas County moves to form its own public health department, and while the other counties that TriCounty now serves, Arapahoe and Adams, ponder their future relationship with the agency.

From splashing in pools and lounging at local beaches this summer to eating at a restaurant or taking a sip of water, the health department has a hand in ensuring safety in many common activities.

“Most people don’t realize public health touches their life every day, even when they don’t walk into our building,” said Jennifer Ludwig, the deputy director of Tri-County. “It’s hard to measure prevention because it’s measuring things that hopefully never happen.”

Some of the lesser-known services provided by Tri-County include NARCAN overdose treatment training for law enforcement, foodborne illness investigations, in-home help for first-time mothers, substance abuse prevention and sexual health services such as birth control counseling, among others.

Although Douglas County is in the process of creating its own health

department, it has arranged to have Tri-County continue to provide health services to the county through 2022.

Adams and Arapahoe counties have also said they are reconsidering their future with the regional health department.

The five major categories of service provided by Tri-County are: • Community health promotion: Under this category of services, TriCounty works to improve the entire population’s health on a macro level by providing education and outreach in areas like maternal and child health, mental health and substance abuse and nutrition. This team also promotes changes in policies related to these topics.

• Nursing: This division provides mostly client-based services such as immunizations, testing for sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy testing and support for mothers and their children. The team also conducts investigations of preventable child fatalities and in Arapahoe County, provides dental care to low-income seniors.

• Environmental health: The department’s environmental health team focuses on keeping people healthy through inspections and regulations of places like childcare facilities, restaurants, water treatment systems, pools, beaches, septic systems and landfills. It puts on events like household chemical roundups, which have the goal of keeping chemicals out of the water supply. Douglas County uses this division’s work more than any other services, Ludwig said.

• Nutrition: The Women, Infants

Tri-County Health Department’s headquarters in Greenwood Village.

and Children Program, or WIC, exists under this division. This team provides education and counseling to individuals and families regarding nutrition and, if needed, breastfeeding. In Adams County, the team also provides food vouchers to residents in need and partners with community gardens to provide access to fresh organic produce and teach families about home gardening.

• Emergency preparedness, response and communicable disease surveillance: This division — the one most well-known over the past year and a half — generally addresses human-made or naturally-occurring public health threats. While this is the team that has focused on the COVID-19 pandemic response, it’s also responsible for investigations and contact tracing of other diseases such as E. coli, rabies and salmonella.

It also includes a workplace safety and security program, such as active shooter trainings, fire drills and tor-

nado drills.

Tri-County also has three branches outside of the public-facing services: administration and finance, human resources and planning and information management. The planning and information management team is what creates and maintains data such as the COVID-19 dashboards on TriCounty’s website.

Many of these divisions work together and overlap in their work, Ludwig said.

According to the state’s Public Health Act of 2008, each county is required by statute to provide core public health services and do things like securing “conditions for a health community.” The ways and extent to which that work can be completed, however, is based on the availability of funding and resources, Ludwig said.

“We are way more than just COVID,” she said. “We’re in every facet that you could think of.”

100 people registered to participate in the real-life scenario with the fire department’s on-site Incident Command Center working together with the Emergency Response Center manager to come up with a plan to bring in resources to investigate.

“The emergency responders had no idea what was going to happen this morning,” Finch said. “Bell Cell Training Exercise Consulting was brought in by the county, they planned the scenario. No one knows what it’s going to be, it is real-world and they don’t know what is going to be thrown at them. The scenarios are to see what works and doesn’t work.”

Ideally, the Incident Command Center (ICC) works together with the Emergency Response Center (EOC) in event of a disaster.

Incident Command Center is the site of disaster where emergency responders arrive to assess and investigate the situation, she said. An ICC manager communicates with EOC for resources and also if people need to be evacuated.

EOC is where the agencies work together to get the resources and move people.

Meanwhile, an infrastructure team works to get good information out to the teams on the ground.

The Geospatial Information System (GIS) team is the web application team.

When Weld County floods hit in 2013, GIS was valuable to have on the team to move people, Finch said.

At the Incident Command Center, two emergency responders assess the burning truck to call in resources and communicate with the EOC for a possible evacuation. PHOTO BY BELEN WARD

GIS creates the city mapping with population numbers. The mapping communicates to officials how many people are in an area and how many houses are impacted. It tells them how many shelters are available too.

Other support The test wasn’t just for fire crews.

A group of agencies, including the American Red Cross, set up in case a population needed to suddenly leave their homes if the fire turned more dangerous. The agencies are set up to move people to shelters, a school, or a stadium, etc. Also, it set up supplies such as oxygen for certain groups, or where to move people with animals, or transportation for people who can’t leave their homes.

The test included other functions as well. A finance group was

on hand to approve expenses in an emergency such as water needed and helicopters for a fire. The Logistic section helped evacuate a school but they need an interpreter to help communicate with a couple of children.

Public Information Officers continue to send out press releases to the media to inform the public of the disaster and where to go to be safe.

When the emergency response exercise was completed Merrie Gardner, Emergency Management Coordinator at EOC, and her team evaluated what worked and did not work at the Frederick site.

“Communication between the field response and the EOC is often one of the most challenging aspects of exercises and incidents, and I was pleased with how well it went yester-

day. At the end of the exercise, we compared our situation reports and they were very consistent. Another objective was to set up the EOC within 30 minutes of activation, and we accomplished this goal in just p under 20 minutes.” c The team identified a couple of ar- fi eas for improvement. They need to t continue to identify people to work n in key roles at EOC. w “One of those is the resource mobilization and logistics section, d which is responsible for supplies, resources, and facilities that might be c needed in a disaster. The processes t we have in place worked well in the d exercise, but in a different type of i incident this section is likely to be D very busy, so we anticipate a need for more people to fill this role,” said c d Gardner.

The exercise also pointed out the s C need to improve some technologies in the Emergency Operations S m Center.

“We utilized some data and map- c c ping display tools yesterday for the first time, and quickly realized a f it would help to have additional w screens and the ability to display information to participants in the d EOC in multiple ways. We will also R D work on adding a more efficient printing capability and some paper maps to our EOC to make sure we i build in some redundancy in case e one technology doesn’t work,” said C U Gardner.

“Overall, I think everything went a well in the Emergency Operations l d Center (EOC). One of our pri9 mary objectives was to maintain situational awareness and a shared t operating picture, and I think we ac- D D complished that,” said Gardner.”

potential 2022 congressional candidates in Colorado will find their homes drawn into the districts they were planning to run to represent, while others won’t.

Here’s a look at the eight districts in the new map: The 1st District would continue to be Denver-centric and a safe Democratic district for Democratic incumbent U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette.

The 2nd District would cover the northwest Colorado counties of Routt, Jackson, Larimer, Grand, Clear Creek, Gilpin, Jackson and Summit, and also include most of Boulder and Eagle counties. It would also include parts of Weld County and more than 1,800 people from Jefferson County. It would be a safe Democratic district for incumbent U.S. Rep. Joe Neguse, a Lafayette Democrat.

The 3rd District would include most of the Western Slope and southern Colorado, including Pueblo.

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, a Garfield County Republican who represents the district, would have a solid 9.3 percentage point advantage, per historic results.

Democratic state Sen. Kerry Donovan of Vail, who is

running to unseat Boebert, would live in the 2nd District.

The 4th District would be compromised of Douglas County, including Castle Rock, as well as Loveland and other parts of Larimer County. The Eastern Plains, including Weld County and eastern Adams and Arapahoe counties, would also be in the district, which would remain a safe district for Republican Rep. Ken Buck, of Windsor.

The 5th District would be centered in Colorado Springs, including military bases in El Paso County, and would remain a safe Republican seat for U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn.

The 6th District would remain anchored in Aurora and include much of Arapahoe County, as well as parts of Adams, Jefferson and Douglas counties. It would remain a safe Democratic district for U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, of Centennial.

The 7th District would be a reconfigured, competitive district including much of Jefferson County but also Lake, Park, Teller, Chaffee, Custer and Fremont counties in the central mountains. Democratic U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter, of Arvada, currently represents the district. Potential Republican challenger, state Rep. Colin Larson, of Ken Caryl, would be just across the

border in the 6th District, though members of Congress don’t have to live in the district they represent.

The new 8th District would include the north Denver suburbs of Thornton, Commerce City, Brighton and Northglenn, as well as most of Westminster and all of Greeley. Democratic

state Rep. Yadira Caraveo, of Thornton, has already announced her bid for the seat, but the competitive nature of the seat is sure to entice Republican challengers.

Man shares story of fight against atrial fibrillation Fatigue, rapid heart rate can be symptoms of a serious condition

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

For many years, Zach Ward thought his racing heartbeat was because he had too much coffee, exercised too much or got up too fast. In reality, he was suffering from a condition many Americans have without ever knowing — atrial fibrillation, or AFib. It was not until three years ago when Ward stood up, passed out and hit his head on a dresser that he was officially diagnosed. Had he not been taken to the hospital to look at his head injury, Ward said, he does not know if he would have ever found out about the heart condition.

The ER doctor sent Ward to the hospital, who then sent him to a cardiologist for treatment of a condition 47-year-old Ward is suspected have having for more than 20 years.

“I remember standing up and just could not get enough oxygen,” said Ward, a Castle Pines resident.

“I just fell over and completely passed out. Until that day, I had no idea how common AFib really is and how often it never gets treated.”

Atrial fibrillation is an irregular and often rapid heart rate that can increase a person’s risk of strokes, heart failure and other heart-related complications. During atrial fibrillation, the heart’s two upper chambers beat chaotically and irregularly.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in the U.S. there are more than 454,000 hospitalizations a year with AFib being the primary diagnosis.

AFib is the contributing factor to more than 158,000 deaths per year.

Because AFib symptoms can be subtle, or rationalized as Ward did, they are often ignored. Symptoms of AFib include irregular heartbeat, heart palpitations (rapid, fluttering, or pounding), lightheadedness, extreme fatigue, shortness of breath and chest pain.

HealthOne physician Dr. Charles Fuenzalida, a cardiac electrophysiologist with The Medical Center of Aurora, said that, like Ward, many people just do not realize the variety of symptoms they are experiencing is due to a serious heart condition.

With September being AFib Awareness Month, Ward said it is important for people to realize how something that seems like a minor symptom that can be blamed on coffee or fatigue can be something serious.

“I would get out of breath walking up a flight of stairs and think it was because I was out of shape,”

AFIB RISK FACTORS The risk for AFib increases with age.

High blood pressure, the risk for which also increases with advancing age, accounts for about 1 in 5 cases of AFib. Risk factors for AFib include: Advancing age High blood pressure Obesity European ancestry Diabetes Heart failure Ischemic heart disease Hyperthyroidism Chronic kidney disease Moderate to heavy alcohol use Smoking Enlargement of the chambers on the left side of the heart Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Zach Ward, of Castle Pines, was diagnosed with AFib three years ago. Since then, he has had surgery and taken steps to keep his heart beating at a normal rate.

Ward said. “Had I not hit that dresser, I would have never bothered to go to a doctor about it.”

In treating Ward, Fuenzalida said it has taken several steps over three years to get his heart in a place where he can return to biking and regular exercise.

At first, Ward started taking blood pressure medications and blood thinners. On two occasions, Ward went through a cardioversion procedure.

Cardioversion is a procedure used to return an abnormal heartbeat to a normal rhythm.

The problem, Ward said, was that the procedure costs $10,000 every time it must be done, and it is not permanent. Ward went through cardioversion twice.

In treating patients with AFib, Fuenzalida said, one of the biggest concerns is stroke. When a person has AFib, blood can pool in the heart’s upper chambers and form blood clots that can break off and travel to the brain.

When medicine and the cardioversion treatments were not working to stabilize his heart,

Fuenzalida recommended Ward go through a different procedure called ablation.

Ablation uses small burns or freezes to cause some scarring on the inside of the heart to help break up the electrical signals that cause irregular heartbeats. This procedure allows the heart to return to a normal rhythm.

After having a friend die from AFib, Ward agreed to have the surgery done in the spring of this year. With about a dozen doctors and nurses in the room, Ward said, he was impressed with the technology used to conduct the procedure, with the doctor going through a vein, starting in the thigh, through the lungs and into the heart. The procedure took about six hours altogether.

Now, Ward said he is feeling the difference, and has gotten back to regular exercise and biking without being as worried.

Technology is also helping Ward stay vigilant. Some of the most popular smartwatches on the market can monitor a person’s heart rate. Ward said he can constantly monitor his heart rate.

Fuenzalida said he believes smartwatch technology is a gamechanger in identifying and diagnosing AFib. Fuenzalida said each year more patients are being referred to heart specialists based on smartwatch data.

VOICES A full ballot warrants your home work

A

re you ready to dive into that full ballot you will soon be receiving in the mail?

Hopefully, you have been reading and listening to the promises and statements of the various municipal and school board candidates leading up to November’s ballot. (Note that Westminster Public Schools had only two candidates to fill two positions so their election was cancelled).

These are tumultuous times with the COVID pandemic, popularized differences over facial masks and vaccinations, national politics and unrest, too many apartment developments, water issues and more. In addition, some municipalities like Westminster have TABOR and/or City Charter Amendment proposals.

To top it off, there are three statewide ballot issues to contemplate. You should have already received your “Blue Book” in the mail on the state issues generated by special citizens’ interest groups.

So, let’s all do our homework.

Statewide ballot proposals from special interest groups The three statewide ballot questions all have to do with money — either changing who authorizes the expenditure of certain state money (Amendment 78), raising money Bill Christopher via an increase in the state marijuana tax for “learning enrichment and academic progress program” i.e. tutoring (Amendment 119) and reducing property taxes on apartments and places of lodging (Amendment 120).

As you can tell, these have interested parties behind them for specific causes.

I favor Amendment 78 as it would provide more transparency for the public to be aware of funds coming to state agencies outside the norm of the state legislature’s process. Also,

CROSS CURRENTS

more accountability would be realized.

On Amendment 119, an additional tax on marijuana sales would start in 2022 with an additional 3% (18% total) and ramp up another 4% (19% total) in 2023 and 5% (20% total) in 2024.

This would be a permanent tax increase. While the basic program idea is noble, I have problems with this one. It is a large sum of money ($87.1 million for the first full year estimate) each year and the administration of the enrichment program is too vague.

This one needs more specificity.

Regarding Amendment 120, I don’t support reducing property taxes for apartment complexes and places of lodging. Why should they receive special treatment? They are both commercial enterprises. This would negatively impact local governmental entities’ tax revenues.

Colo. needs the right plan to expand early education

T

his summer, Gov. Jared Polis signed a historic bill to support universal Pre-K education in Colorado. The legislation’s passage represented a major milestone in a decades-long quest to expand educational opportunities for young learners.

But the hard work is not done.

The way we move the plan forward, and how we decide to use the funds for universal Pre-K, will have huge consequences for Colorado families and their children.

Our Pre-K program can set a positive example for other states, but only if we make the right choices now in our planning.

COVID-19 widened severe opportunity and achievement gaps for children from low-income families, children of color, multilingual learners, and other underserved populations. Currently, only 40% of eligible children are able to access preschool through the Colorado Preschool Program.

Funding for universal Pre-K will help, but only if all students have access to high-quality choices.

Money alone will not be enough.

The state’s new Department of Early Childhood must start with a strong blueprint to design a high-quality program. Our youngest kids have unique potential and unique needs that can guide these plans.

Supporting every child’s potential starts with improving teacher training and paying early educators what they’re really worth. Colorado educators who work with children ages 0-4 make an average of $26,875 a year — far below the state’s per-capita income of about $41,000.

Clear definitions of quality and a streamlined bureaucracy also Cathrine Floyd will go a long way and Deborah J. toward helping Colorado families Leong find the best learning options for their kids.

To receive full-day funding for their child, parents may have to use money managed by two different state agencies — Colorado Preschool Program dollars, through the Department of Education, and the Child Care Assistance Program, through the Department of Human Services.

Many parents don’t have the resources to identify high-quality programs in such a complex system. High-quality choices should

GUEST COLUMN

be readily available to every family.

Measures of quality should be grounded in the science of child development. High-quality programs should include consideration of equity, exploration, and other principles of ideal learning environments — both for the parents seeking the right program for their kids, and for the children in the classroom.

The best early learning programs use these principles to personalize learning and meet every child where they are. They champion play as central to a child’s growth and learning, and value childhood as a unique time when kids learn through close relationships with their teachers and peers. They’re committed to engaging and empowering families as active participants in their kids’ learning.

Not all early childhood programs are the same. Many people assume that worksheets and flashcards teaching discrete math and reading skills are the best tools to advance a child’s academic success.

But that’s not how young children learn best.

How we teach matters as much as what we teach, and the how has to honor what we know about children’s growth and learning. For example, play-based models have

been shown to foster whole-child development and support literacy and math skills. The principles underlying these programs should be woven into the state’s earlylearning plans.

Educators need robust training to create learning environments that set up 3- and 4-year-olds for success both in Kindergarten and in life. If we don’t give educators the resources they need, too many children will be left behind — even in a world with universal access.

Colorado is a diverse state, and our youngest learners have diverse needs. The good news is we already have a variety of models that support children, families and educators in their unique communities.

Programs like Tools of the Mind support teachers through professional development that includes individualized video coaching, small-group monthly facilitated professional learning communities, regular workshops and a range of digital resources including child-assessment tools.

Spelling out specific land uses and water consumptions As I have pointed out before, it is fundamentally critical that these two plans work together in concert with substantial information to back up conclusions, policies and direction of the city.

As we know all too well, water resources have become more important and scarce than when previous

City council should call a time out While there is plenty of information about the plan’s various components, both the land use and the water supply plans are not well defined or specific. They contain too much ambiguity and leave too much to interpretation. As a property owner, developer or an existing neighbor next to vacant land, you cannot tell from the proposed land use plan what is allowed. Also, in the case of density of dwelling units, it is not spelled out.

This is not the way to do business as a local government. Specificity, consistency and transparency are paramount in laying out the land use plan for the whole city.

Interested parties have a right to know what the allowed land uses

are in advance and shouldn’t have to figure them as they progress through the planning process. Likewise, developers have a right to know if there is a sufficient water supply to serve the proposed development and the rest of the undeveloped land.

Certainly, developers do their due diligence to determine such critical factors on whether to go forward with a land acquisition. Stating that the water resources plan’s previous “water gap” of 2,000 acre feet of new water will be covered or resolved through ADDITIONAL water conservation techniques is a shaky assumption and could produce detrimental impacts i.e. tearing out front yard turf.

This is unacceptable and likely would be to future developers. The best and ONLY action for the City Council to take is to table the land use plan and direct staff to include the desired land use designations. Also, the water plan needs to include specific water resources, amounts of water, the amount of savings needed in water consumption to reconcile any “gap” and how it will be achieved.

It has been a long, laborious effort to envision what the city wants over the next 20 years. Staff and consultants have worked hard on this compilation of data, facts, land uses etc.

In particular, I would like to acknowledge Andrew Sturgin in the Planning Division for shepherding this herculean task. You may recall that the Comprehensive Plan is one part of “Westminster Forward” which includes other key components of what makes a community.

comprehensive land use plans were drawn up. Westminster has a small amount of raw, undeveloped land left to be developed. Also, redevelopment of developed sites will become the norm as the city’s available raw land inventory shrinks. This makes it all the more imperative that allowed land uses are spelled out in the final plan. Furthermore, the confirmed water supply must be clearly documented to demonstrate whether there is sufficient water to serve all new development envisioned in the updated land use plan. Citizens need to be able to trust the plan.

LIFE Boosters tout promise of Denver’s 5280 Trail

But the urban route could take a decade to complete

BY KYLE COOKE ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

T

he final stretch of the walk from Denver Union Station to the Buell Public Media Center on 21st and Arapahoe has become a lot shadier ... in a good way.

More than 30 Shumard oak trees line the sidewalk on 21st Street from Lawrence to Larimer. And although they are currently in above-ground tree boxes (i.e., not there permanently ... yet), they are a small part of what city leaders believe will be an enduring, “transformational” addition to Denver: The 5280 Trail.

A project of the Downtown Denver Partnership (DDP), the 5280 Trail is a 5.280-mile trail that, once complete, will encircle downtown Denver, connecting neighborhoods and landmarks.

When the design process for the trail began in 2019, it drew comparisons to New York City’s High Line.

In an interview with Rocky Mountain PBS, officials with the DDP said the project that most inspired them was the Cultural Trail in Indianapolis.

The 5280 Trail is designed to connect high-traffic neighborhoods like La Alma/Lincoln Park, Capitol Hill and LoDo, to name a few, while also making stops at popular destinations like Union Station, Coors Field and the Colorado state Capitol.

“We’re in desperate need of open space and park space in our city and near our neighborhoods, and this is really meant to provide that space,” said Andrew Iltis, the director of economic development at DDP. “We began to look around the country to see some really great examples of how these types of trails were being integrated into urban environments,” said Tami Door, DDP’s president and CEO (Door is leaving her post in November).

Door cited four goals that implementing the 5280 Trail would meet: “Creating a mosaic of districts, increasing bike mobility, connecting neighborhoods, (and) creating an outdoor downtown.”

The proposed path of the 5280 Trail around downtown Denver.

“This is a very big vision,” Door added. “This is the type of infrastructure project that will transform our city and the way our neighborhoods and people connect with each other.”

In terms of the size of the project and how it would change the city’s urban landscape, the 5280 Trail, Door said, is “on par” with the 16th Street Mall.

Projects of this size come with a big price tag and a long timeline.

Though the tree boxes on 21st are emblazoned with “Coming Soon!,” Door told Rocky Mountain PBS the goal is to have the trail totally completed in 10 years, adding that certain sections, including the one on 21st Street, will be entirely built out before then.

As for funding, DDP officials said the 5280 Trail will come to fruition through a combination of public and private dollars. Door said that

COURTESY OF DOWNTOWN DENVER PARTNERSHIP

“hundreds of thousands of dollars” from the private sector have already been put forward for early planning and exploratory trips to other cities like Indianapolis.

When it comes to public funds, the DDP is banking on $7 million earmarked for the 5280 Trail in the City of Denver’s $450 million General Obligation bond package. The package, which also includes about $37 million for purchasing and improving homeless shelters, as well as plans for a new arena at the National Western Center, goes before Denver voters in November.

The 5280 Trail funding is included in Denver’s Question 2C: “Constructing a segment of an urban trail and pedestrian walkway in downtown Denver”.

If passed, that $7 million will go toward building out the 5280 Trail on Acoma Street from 10th Avenue to 12th Avenue. The city has already

committed $850,000 to the planning (but not the construction) of the 21st Street segment — which will extend from Benedict Fountain Park to Coors Field — and that will be the first part of the trail to be developed.

“Here’s the power of that: Once the public starts to see what something really looks like, the private dollars start to come faster and faster,” Door said. “Especially people who have investments in different neighborhoods and they’re excited to bring the trail to their neighborhood.”

Presently, no money has been identified for the actual construction of the 21st Street segment. Denver City Councilman Chris Hinds, who represents District 10, said the segment on 21st is estimated to cost $30 million to complete. If the voters approve the Acoma Street segment’s fundSEE TRAIL, P13

Films search for a way forward at Vail Film Festival COMING ATTRACTIONS

Clarke Reader

M

ovies have never been more accessible than they are right now.

With the constant announcement of new streaming services and studio acquisitions, movies can feel like disposable “content,” instead of projects people pour themselves into for years at a time.

You do not get that feeling at all at the Vail Film Festival. The 18th annual festival, which ran from Thursday, Sept. 23 through Sunday, Sept. 26, featured about 80 films (all streaming online) and I was able to catch 13 during the festival’s four days.

And I felt the dedication and passion in every frame of every film I watched. It was

obvious they were made by people who really, truly wanted to tell their story.

Aside from showcasing works from female filmmakers (a key part of the festival’s modus operandi), a theme I noticed running through everything I saw was people and places trying to forge a path forward in a rapidly changing world.

The topic was dealt with overtly in documentaries like “Gianni Berengo Gardin’s Tale of Two Cities,” “Hog Town,” “Into the Light with Cite Memoire,” “The Revolution Generation” and “The Sound of Us,” all of which chronicle the way real people and communities are working to deal with issues ranging from climate change to popu-

lation shifts and healing a divided world.

And then there are films like “D-Rep: Fight for Life,” “Everything in the End,” “Highway One,” “planet b234,” “A Savannah Haunting,” “Voodoo Macbeth” and “We’re All in This Together,” which bring viewers close as a whisper to people (both real, fictional and a blending of the two) who are looking for some kind of steady ground on which to move forward.

No film I saw better encapsulated this than Christina Zorich’s heartrending documentary, “The New Abolitionists,” which follows three nonprofit SEE READER, P13

ing as part of the GO bond package, “the segment will be 100% realized,” Hinds told Rocky Mountain PBS. Door said she isn’t worried about funding.

“We have 100% no concerns that we will get the money,” she said.

“This vision is very powerful. It’s transformational. It supports so many varied aspects of our community: visitors, employees, residents.”

People who live and work on this particular section of 21st are used to these types of transformations: For two months in the summer of 2017, 21st between Larimer and Lawrence closed to traffic and became “The Square on 21st,” another one of DDP’s projects. The Square on 21st was designed to show the potential of the 5280 Trail.

Since then, the same section of 21st was closed to traffic in order to create a pop-up park during the MLB All-Star Game in 2021, and it also hosted this year’s Oktoberfest.

What the 21st Street section of the 5280 Trail will look like is still to be determined. There are currently two options for the trail’s 21st Street segment. The first option is a “trail” design, which would close the street to motorists (excluding emergency vehicles) and create a shared trail for cyclists and pedestrians. The second option is called a “shared street” in which cars would be allowed.

Brett Boncore is a senior engineer with the city’s Department of Transportation and Infrastructure and the project manager of the 5280 Trail

organizations - Extreme Love, NightLight and Tamar Center - fighting human trafficking in southeast Asia. It’s an issue that has tendrils everywhere in the world, even in the Denver metro area, and the film celebrates the survivors of this horrific system, the work being done to shut it down and how far there is still to go. It’s a personal look at people - and a world - badly in need of a better path forward.

I spoke with Zorich about her film, getting access and how people can help survivors of trafficking.

Interview edited for brevity and clarity.

What inspired you to make this film?

I met an anti-trafficker who had started a nonprofit and was going to need help with fundraising materials. At that point I didn’t think of myself as a director, but as time

on 21st Street. He told Rocky Mountain PBS that reintroducing a tree canopy to downtown Denver will be a “huge piece” of the 5280 Trail.

And, Boncore added, the 21st Street segment of the 5280 Trail will help inform the design of the remaining parts of the trail.

“Whatever is designed on 21st, we can learn from and apply to the rest of the 5280 Trail,” Boncore said.

But that doesn’t mean the design for the 21st Street section of the trail will extend for all 5.28 miles. Some

sections could have the shared street design, while others could have carfree trails, Boncore explained.

“It won’t look the same along the entire route,” added Iltis. “It will definitely relate to the place and that’s really important. That’s important to make it interesting as you move around the trail, but it’s also important to make sure that the community feels that value.”

In La Alma Lincoln Park, for example, the hope is to commission new artwork that fits in with the culture

and history of the neighborhood.

“Every place should feel special and have its own distinct identity,” Door said, “but yet still be threaded together with a commonality of what it means to be Denver.”

evolved things changed. It took time to figure out what project I wanted to self-produce, which I had never done before. But this [issue] wasn’t on a lot of people’s radar and I felt driven to figure out how it was going on.

How important was it to give context to what’s going on in the region?

At-risk groups are where this happens, and at-risk regions are where this is rife. If the family unit is broken, there’s a history of trauma, abuse, abject poverty or a country where there’s less infrastructure to help the poor and needy, it can happen more easily. But there are various ways it can come about - it’s hard to pinpoint one reason and so we tried hard in the movie to give numerous reasons. It’s easy for us to judge from a position of privilege, but if you come from a slum or place with gutted infrastructure, there’s no real way out. It’s hard for us to fathom in this country, even when it’s happening here.

What are the biggest challenges facing those who are doing

this work?

In a way, the nonprofits are dealing with the back end of all of this. The source of it is a much deeper issue - one on a national, state and local level. There needs to be pressure to stop these criminal industries at the source. I think people need to get to a place of activation so action can be taken on every front.

You saw so much darkness making this film. What gives you hope?

I was deeply moved by the resilience of the healing spirit. The level of betrayal and trauma and hurt

that these women went through, and then you see some of them becoming leaders and making a change toward a healthy life. And we learned that other people are needed [as part of the healing process] - a community is needed for that kind of healing to happen.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

Our biggest issues are really tied together in water rights and usage and development. We need to re-address our water issue in a more effective way to gain access to our water rights up the Poudre River. Until we can get this pipeline built, it will effect development and water usage.

I’d like to make sure we address water usage by allowing options for lawns from artificial turf to xeriscaping.

Please list your top three priorities if elected 1- To restore all of Westminster to the beautiful, green city it should be. The city leaders of 60 years ago acquired the surface water rights to make Westminster an oasis; a garden in the Colorado High Plains. We should celebrate that legacy. To do that requires non-profit water. 2- No subsidies for growth. Growth must pay all costs it imposes. 3- Thrift in government.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

We must openly discuss and choose between supporting our current population versus seeking population growth. We do not have enough water to do both. Growth is not inevitable.

Growth is a choice. The costs of growth have not been acknowledged or reimbursed so we have overused water, schools, parks, roads, social services and police. We are a complete, mature city that is a wonderful place to live.

That will both listen and communicate with residents and provide financially sound and reliable city government that works for all the residents.

3. Find a path for our water utilities future that creates affordable water rates while maintaining infrastructure and providing safe drinking water.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

There are many issues from growth, infrastructure, to the rise in crime that we must address and will shape our future. The most critical issue to address is to fix our leadership and find a city manager who can balance the needs of our community such as affordable water rates working with budget available. This will take a council willing to make some hard critical choices about the leadership and future direction of the city.

Residents have told us this is a top reason they chose to live in Westminster.

Businesses decide to locate here for that same reason. Preserving thriving and safe neighborhoods through code enforcement, zoning, and investing in our police officers and firefighters.

Finally, we must maintain Westminster as an open, inclusive and welcoming City where everyone feels encouraged to participate in their city government.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

Sustainability. We must continuously strive for sustainability in both environmental and financial practices.

Sustainable practices like switching to alternative energy and electric vehicles is good for the environment and saves taxpayers money over time. We should also find ways to conserve water. We must continue to find ways to invest in our aging infrastructure like roads, and water and sewer systems, for now and for future generations of Westminster residents.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

I believe moving forward into the future, Northglenn will continue to address the growing concerns of homelessness and lack of basic needs through collaboration with local organizations such as Adams County Human Services, Adams 12 Schools, Food Banks, Churches, SWAP Program, AWARE Center and the Community Reach Center to help people to receive the assistance they need and to enrich their lives.

Second, homelessness is an emerging concern. Finding resources for our unhoused neighbors will require a coordinated effort between residents, non-profits, religious organizations and neighboring cities.

Finally, maintaining and improving the city’s infrastructure will always be a priority. Including water, wastewater, roads or bridges; all of this work is essential for our quality of life.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

I see sustainability issues being at the forefront for our city. There is a large push across the metro area to address our ongoing ozone noncompliance status. In the next 10 years we’ll see more electric vehicles on the road and we need to prepare our community for that large shift.

Northglenn needs to continue to advocate regionally for solutions and take responsibility for electrifying our own fleet to set the example of good stewardship.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

Our Northglenn has activist extremist partisan hate on the “Toxic” council. Crime is out of hand. Hate Crimes being committed by elected officials aimed at anyone who opposes them. The fact Northglenn City council has had several people resign in two years proves my case. How do we respond? We need a Resolute Man on city council. Vote Mark Bromley Ward 3. I keep running and I’m still fighting for Northglenn. make sure infrastructure, small businesses, housing needs, parks/ rec,culture, utilities, and our environmental impacts are taken into consideration. The decisions we make now will have lasting impacts beyond any one councilmember’s term and as an educator, by approaching these, among other issues in an integrated fashion, we can build a better Thornton.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

Ensuring economic stability and resilience for our residents, businesses, and the City as a whole will be at the core of our work. We need to ensure our residents can afford to stay in the community, and that they have access to jobs, options for income creation and affordable housing. And we need to invest in infrastructure, foster a vibrant economic environment, and build a strong relationship with the community through listening, followthrough, and transparency.

Please list your top three priorities if elected Together, we must build Westminster from the ground up. This is accomplished through my top priorities of infrastructure, smart growth, as well as diversity, equity, and inclusivity. Infrastructure is both social and economic and affects health and safety. We have to plan our growth, infrastructure, environment, and economy. Diversity, equity, and inclusivity are at the heart. We must work together to ensure each resident is listened to, cared for, communicated with, and afforded accessibility.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

The Westminster of tomorrow is shaped by the decisions of today. Each resident’s needs and how to meet them where they are is step one. With this knowledge, we will be able to address infrastructure, growth, and diversity, equity, and inclusivity, which are the issues that will impact Westminster going forward. Planning for the how we will manage and take care of our infrastructure and growth will ensure the impact on each resident valued.

What issue do you see shaping the city the most through the next decade and how we should respond?

How we manage future growth and infrastructure needs, including water resources, are the most critical issues facing the city. We need to be deliberate and thoughtful regarding future new growth, making sure that it’s what residents want and that it pays its own way.

That has not happened in recent years, as the financial burden associated with new growth has fallen on the backs of existing residents in the form of incredibly burdensome water rates

Hawks climb to top spot in state softball polls

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In the eyes of Colorado’s chapter of MaxPreps, Horizon High School is the second-best team in the Class 5A rankings in the state.

It’s somewhat of a surprise to HHS coach Gary Mares.

“We lost a valuable starter and leader in Colorado Mesa University’s Rylee Crouch,” Mares said.

“Last year was such a unique season with all the restrictions, game schedules, etc. We were able to sneak up on some people.”

Crouch was the Hawks’ starting center fielder.

“We just needed to fill Rylee’s role.

She batted clean-up,” Mares said.

“We are 16 strong. Everyone has accepted their role and supports one another.

In 2019, Horizon seven of 23 games. In the pandemic-shortened season, HHS won 15 of 17. This year, the Hawks won 20 of their first 21. Alexis Mohr was batting .459 through the first 19 games. Allie Medrano was hitting .466. Alyssa Haberstroh was hitting a cool .467 through 15 games.

“Complimentary softball with good pitching and defense,” Mares said of the Hawks’ success this season. “Timely hitting is also very important to this success as well.”

HHS advanced to state last year and lost in the first round. Mares said it didn’t take long to wipe the slate clean of the 2020 campaign.

“Day 1 in our off-season program, he said. “Every year is an opportunity for any team to come together and compete.”

The regular season wraps up this week with a home game against Legacy. The first pitch is at 4:15 p.m.

Oct. 7. The regional playoffs are Saturday, Oct. 16, and the state 5A tournament begins Friday, Oct. 22, at Aurora Sports Park, East Colfax Avenue east of Tower Road.

Mares said the team’s record through 19 games was a surprise.

“We have played some really good teams and coaches that can flat outcompete,” Mares said. “This team just seems to have the confidence to do it with a ‘bulldog’ mentality. Good beliefs lead to good thoughts lead to good destiny.

“The kids are excited to see how good they can be.”
