Last year, Diane Kruse and her husband, Kevin, went to visit the doctor.
Kevin needed to get some things checked out with his heart, nothing urgent or out of the ordinary. After looking through their insurance network, they settled on a cardiologist working at a satellite clinic on the National Jewish Health campus in Denver. e visit felt routine — the only piece of equipment the doctor needed to use was a stethoscope.
But it was the bills that came as a surprise.
ey had been prepared to pay a $150 copay to cover the o ce visit. But they also received a second bill for another $150 for “facility and nursing services,” the billing statement read.
Confused, Diane called the National Jewish billing department, thinking she had been mistakenly double-billed.
“ e person checked it out and said, ‘ at’s the hospital,’” Diane recalled. “And I said, ‘We didn’t go to a hospital.’ And they said, ‘Well, that’s the facility fee.’”
What exactly was going on in Diane and Kevin Kruse’s medical bills — what they were charged and why — is now the subject of the biggest

Youth, and especially those aged nine to 17, will be the focus of a new behavioral health and wellness center opening at the HealthOne North Suburban Medical Center in Westminster.
“ e COVID pandemic hit us hard in many ways, but by far, our youth have been impacted the most, and they continue to struggle – their behavioral health needs are at an alltime high,” Hollie Seeley, President of North Suburban Medical Center said in a written statement.
Part of the center’s Northwest Emergency Room will be designated as a behavioral and wellness intensive care outpatient unit. A new Intensive Outpatient Program will provide immediate services for children ages 9-11 and adolescents from 12-17 in the North Metro communities.
e new center is located at the Northwest location in Westminster at 11230 Benton Street.
“Over the last few years, we have seen an increased rate of suicide, especially in Colorado, among those who are 10 – 14 years old, and more importantly, we have seen an increase in the number of child/adolescent behavioral health patients in our emergency rooms,” Seeley said. “Adding intensive behavioral health services for our youth has never been more critical and providing these much-needed services to the communities we serve will
give our kids better outcomes.” e intensive care program focuses on the youth’s challenges, such as depression, anxiety, managing daily living skills, self-injury, di culty regulating feelings, short attention span or concentrating on tasks, school failure, and substance. For the youth to get better with a healthy life balance, its recommended to attend a minimum of three sessions per week, according
to health o cials.
According to health o cials, North Suburban Medical center behavioral health experts establish a plan for each patient’s needs, such as structured therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, group-based therapy, individual counseling interventions, trauma-informed therapy, interpersonal e ectiveness training and life skills.
ridership increased by 22% compared from July 2022 to August 2022, and average weekday daily ridership increased by 19.9% in August compared to July.
e report also acknowledges the increase can’t only be attributed to the free rides.
“...transit trends and data are in uenced by seasonal factors, such as vacations and the resumption of the school year, in addition to persisting pandemic impacts and large scheduled events.” the report reads.
State Representatives Jennifer Bacon and Stephanie Vigil and State Senator Faith Winter introduced a bill this year that will allow that same grant to be used for any month that a transit agency designates as its “ozone season.”
Additionally, even with higher costs of driving, data provided by RTD shows that gas prices do not change ridership.
Laurie Hu , a spokesperson for RTD, wrote in an email that many factors a ect ridership, such as seasonality, weather, service levels and the opening of new lines.
She noted an increase in ridership in 2008 coincided with higher gas prices. However, ridership remained the same in 2014 when gas prices fell.
“RTD has been unable to attribute a direct correlation between gas prices and ridership (but) has seen just the opposite in some cases. On a longer-term basis, gas prices have

risen but overall ridership for transit agencies has trended downward,” she wrote.
One strong correlation they found is employment rates: as unemployment rises, ridership goes down, and vice versa.
Getting more riders, and money
If people live near transit and it’s accessible, they’re more likely to take it. According to Brian Welch, RTD’s acting assistant general manager of planning, the pandemic disproportionately impacted the use of public transportation.
“If you look at air travel, vehicle miles traveled, freight, even I think ocean cruises, almost everybody has gotten back to where they were before the global pandemic. Public transportation remains one of the outliers, so we’re still feeling the effects of this disruption,” he said.
One of those reasons is due to teleworking. Not as many people are taking long trips to work. Even before the pandemic, increases in ridership weren’t proportional to increases in population.
“If we have all these people moving into the Denver Metro area, ostensibly we’ve got people moving in who don’t want to drive,” he said. “We don’t seem to be attracting those people as frequently as we’d like to.”
For public transportation to be attractive, people need incentives to take it.
Welch said expensive parking charges, congestion, safety and competitive travel times up the value.
Work replacing ornton’s old Community Center on Eppinger Boulevard hit its second stage Feb. 27 as the city o cially kicked o construction on its successor.
“We all stood here back in October on a very cold day to say goodbye to the original library and community center from 1974,” Mayor Jan Kulmann told a group of fellow City Councilors, sta , neighbors and partners from Anythink Library Feb. 27 in the park overlooking the build-
lot ornton history, whether you grew up coming here to hang out with friends, meet neighbors for a cup of co ee, check out a good book or enjoy outdoor recreation, this space is so important to us.”
Work on the new 40,000 squarefoot building is expected to continue into late 2024.
According to plans, the 40,000-square-foot building designed by Studiotrope Design Collective will house the ornton Community Center as well as an approximately 10,000-square-foot Anythink library.
e building will have traditional recreation areas like the gymnasium, dance studios, and boxing gym as well as shared spaces for rental,
makerspace for community members to enjoy.
e library will include many of the features of an Anythink library, plus a meditation garden and access to the outdoor park amenities, such as the skate park and playing elds.
“ is unique partnership between the City of ornton and Anythink will create an incredible gathering space for the residents of ornton and Adams County,” ornton Parks, Recreation and Community Programs Director Doug Romig said in a written statement. “ e facility will serve our community in a way that I am not aware exists anywhere else, and we are excited to see this vision come to fruition.”
e building is tentatively sched-
uled to open in fall/winter of 2024.
e current Anythink York Street sta and collections will serve the south ornton community from this new location when it opens.
“Anythink and ornton know that when we work together, great things happen for our community,” Lynne Fox, a trustee for the Anythink Board of Directors, said. “ ornton sta has been working with partners for decades so our residents are safer and happier and more prosperous. is another growing example of that. Soon, parents will be able to drop a kid at the skatepark, drop another kid at a dance class and then head over to the library for story time. It’s going to be a wonderful experience for our community.”

Even so, there are people who won’t do it — they love their car, Welch said.
“In North America, in the places where we have for 50, 75 years made it really attractive to drive, that makes transit tougher, to provide a value proposition and a good alternative for people,” he said.
To make transit an attractive option, it needs to be there and needs to be of quality, safe and frequent.
e price of transit is inelastic regarding incremental increases.
STAFF REPORT
e City of Northglenn Department of Parks, Recreation and Culture is hosting a Job Fair from 4-7 p.m. March 14 at the Northglenn Recreation Center, 1 East Memorial Parkway.
e city is hiring for a multitude of positions. is fair is focused on seasonal jobs such as lifeguards, youth programs support
sta and parks positions. However, there will be information about working for the city in any capacity.
Minimum age is 15. Training provided for many positions, including lifeguards. Wages for seasonal positions range from $15.05/ hour to $20.03/hour.
For more information: www.northglenn.org/jobs or call the recreation center, 303-450-8800.
“Doesn’t matter if it’s free, because it still doesn’t help them (if it’s not of value),” he said.
However, for those on the margin, high fares play a role.
“If you could get to the airport cheaper by driving and parking than you could by taking one of our airport services, then yeah, the price is an issue,” Welch said.
Connecting the suburbs
Welch said that circumferential transit – public transportation options that circle a downtown area, connecting the outlying areas – has not worked well in the United States. Hub and
spoke-type networks, from the suburbs to downtown, attract people from concentration to concentration in the U.S.
“It generally takes you too long to get all the way to where you need to go,” he said.
He said it’s a real challenge for those living in suburbs trying to get to other suburbs, such as Westminster to Brighton or ornton to Lone Tree.
Most success for RTD has come from connecting Denver, the tech center and Boulder. Each contain services that attract people and virtually guarantee ridership: colleges, hospitals, o ce buildings and commercial centers. ose inter-suburban connections may grow naturally if the suburbs continue to grow, b e ectively becoming hubs themselves, he said. But that does not answer the age-old question: how do we get people to ride transit?
RTD’s largest limitation is hiring employees, Welch said, and another will be funds. Welch said right now, RTD is in a good position with recent money coming from the federal government, such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act.) In the future, it won’t be so smooth.
at’s because 20% of RTD’s operating budget
comes from fares, which is typical for a transportation agency. What’s not typical is the rest comes mostly from the federal government and sales tax – with no revenue coming from the state government.
In 2021, RTD’s total revenue and grants and contributions were $1.17 billion. Of that, about 7% came from operating revenues, about 64% from sales tax and about 26% from grant operating assistance.
RTD’s operating revenues also were cut in half from 2019 to 2021. In 2019, operating revenues came in at $160.9 million but were slashed to $82.5 million in 2020 and reduced again to $83.1 million in 2021.
State Senator Winter said RTD needs a more reliable source of funding moving into the future to continue the boost it received from 2022’s Zero Fare for Better Air days promotion.
“We need to build on that success, continue that success, and make that success permanent,” Winter said.
To receive funding from municipalities and the state, Welch said RTD is working on showing people it’s worth it, with a lot of focus on safety and security.
“How can we be ready for them so that they instantly come back on transit and don’t start driving again?” Welch said.
27J Schools made good on its promise to begin a school safety program.
Late last month, the district made its rst step in that direction by hiring its rst director of safety and security. He is Sam Ortega.
Before the November election, a press statement said the district community focused on improving school safety, including a safety/security department, more safety o cers in schools and more training for safety sta .
Ortega has been the district’s emergency response and crisis coordinator, one of two members of the district safety sta serving the 23,000-student school district.
Ortega’s tasks include planning and putting into place a safety and security department, plus developing and ex-
ecuting short- and long-range plans/.
“Sam brings a unique blend of school administration and school safety systems experience to the new position,” the statement read. “He has rst-hand knowledge of the safety focus school leaders have, and he has strong relationships with local law enforcement, including the Brighton, Commerce City, and ornton Police Departments, as well as the Adams County Sheri ’s Department. He’s trained with police o cers in school safety drills, planning and problemsolving situations involving all of the district’s 24 district-managed schools”
“When it comes to school safety, we know our community and sta are con dent they can count on Sam to be the kind of leader we need to keep our students and sta as safe as possible,” Superintendent Chris Fiedler said in the statement. “Sam has built strong relationships and partnerships to
support our work to expand our safety and security system in 27J Schools.”
Chief Operating O cer Terry Lucero, who has worked alongside Ortega the past ve years, said it’s a real bene t to have a highly quali ed safety professional for this role with relevant school administration experience.
“We have a vast mix of students and families in 27J Schools,” Ortega said in the statement. “Every single student deserves to come to school and feel safe. ey need to have con dence in the safety of their school so they can focus completely on learning.”
Ortega was an assistant principal at Vikan Middle School and was the principal of summer school in 27J Schools. He also served in Adams 14 School District as a middle-school dean of students and athletic director in Commerce City.
He earned his bachelor’s degree with a double major in criminal
justice and political science from New Mexico Highlands University and his masters in educational administration from Grand Canyon University. Ortega began his new job earlier this month.
An Adams County man accused in the sexual assault of a child in 2014 and allegedly on the lam in Morocco was extradited back to Colorado Feb. 11, according to the District Attorney’s o ce.
A trial for Patrick McKenner, 52, was set to begin in 2014. Defendent McKenner failed to appear for the Motions Hearing in May of that year.
McKenneer
McKenner was eventually located in Morocco. e District Attorney’s O ce worked with the Department of Justice, the FBI, and Denver Rocky Mountain Safe Streets Task Force to track the defendant’s whereabouts and complete an extradition. McKenner was eventually detained in Morocco.
McKenner’s charges include Sex Assault of a Child--Position of Trust, Sex Assault on a Child--Pattern of Abuse, Sexual Exploitation of a Child, Sex Assault on a Child and Tampering with Physical Evidence. He appeared in court on Feb. 17.
Last week, the FBI Denver Extradition Team, comprised of one FBI Agent and two FBI Task Force Ocers, traveled to Morocco and completed the extradition. On Saturday,
February 11, 2023, the Adams County Sheri ’s O ce met the FBI Denver Extradition Team at Denver International Airport and completed the transfer of custody. McKenner was booked into the Adams County Jail. e defendant is being held with no bond.
U.S. law enforcement acknowledged the e orts of the Moroccan authorities who helped to make this possible.
ferent than what they’ve always been, she said. Public safety, economic development and a ordable housing all are her top goals, and they all tie in together to make the city a place where residents can do it all.

Jan Kulmann is an engineer. She said that means her job is to solve problems where solutions don’t necessarily exist.
She sees parallels to politics.
“ ere’s a lot of problems that exist and nobody knows how to solve them, or we wouldn’t have constant work to do. So engineers are really suited for that kind of work,” she said.
Kulmann is in the last year of her four-year term as mayor. Voters will go to the polls in November to select the mayor for the next four years, as well as three City Councilors. Candidates can begin passing nomination forms and collecting signatures on Aug. 8.
Kulmann moved to ornton in 2007 because her uncle lived in the city, and they were looking for a place that felt like home. With ornton giving a small town feel but also being a huge community, she said the opportunities are endless to live, work and play in the city.
She wants to expand on those opportunities and continue to build o the work she’s done while she’s been the mayor.
Her main priorities aren’t much dif-
“We want people to not just live here. We want them to work here, play here, stay here, spend more money here,” she said.
Her experience on the council, which she served since 2013 as a councilor and later as mayor, prepared her to continue the work she’s been doing. She said she has learned how the city works and feels she is able to make real di erences in the community.
Kulmann pointed to the fact that she’s passionate about public safety. e amount of hires in the police department has increased and the re department won a congressional award for the work they did with COVID-19.
Current issues
When Kulmann was running for congress, she learned that if everything is local, it doesn’t matter what’s happening at the state and federal levels.
“Everything a ects us locally,” she said.
To address the rising cost of living, it’s vital to bring jobs to the city and make sure housing is available, she said.
“A ordability is a lot about having a place to live, being able to a ord to live, being able to have a job where
you live so you don’t have to travel so much and those are the things that we’re working on in the city,” she said.
Kulmann sees housing as a water issue.
“We have to have water in order to make sure that we have stock available,” she said.
She’s looking forward to see how Proposition 123, a sales tax dedicated to a ordable housing that was approved by voters in 2022, will pan out and how ornton will bene t from it.
Housing also plays into crime.
“It’s extremely important because, without a safe community, we’re not going to have residents that want to live here,” she said.
Kulmann hopes to build o the new hires in the police department, as well as focus on training, with help from the new training center that recently opened.
“It’s about having the right o cers that are trained to protect our community in the right ways,” she said.
She touted Chief Terrence Gordon for helping make community policing part of ornton’s culture.
Past issues
Kulmann said a 2022 grassroots movement seeking for more campaign nance reform in ornton is worth discussing.
“I think there’s opportunity for conversations and I’m open to real conversations about it, not political posturing about it,” she said.
A group of residents tried to collect signatures to put the issue on the 2022 November ballot, but fell short. e group of more than 6,000 signatures, but needed 8,565 make the ballot.
If passed, the ordinance would have limited contributions, created more frequent reporting deadlines and required more disclosures on campaign materials. It also, would’ve banned corporate, special interest and union money and made it easier
to understand rules that govern making donations.
Kulmann, who at the time stopped short of supporting the initiative, did say she was in favor of more transparency.
She said she felt the approach to the issue was ‘an us versus them approach.’ She wants to have a collaborative e ort that can address some sort of reform.
Thornton Shopping Center
With ornton recently acquiring the ornton Shopping Center, Kulmann hopes for it to be a center for revitalization.
“It’s something all of us in the community are excited to actually start to move forward on,” she said.
However, she stressed the importance of managing expectations. ere’s a lot to x which will take a long time before something happens to the property.
Jacque Phillips vote
On Feb. 9, 2022, Former City Councilor Jacque Phillips was voted o council 5-4, with those for the removal citing a purchase of a home in Alamosa and starting a second job there. Kulmann voted for it.
“ e facts are she doesn’t live here. And that’s really the gist of it,” she said.
She said she wished Phillips brought up the issue earlier to have a collaborative conversation about it.
“It’s unfortunate that someone decided to move out of the city instead of representing the community where she told people she was,” Kulmann said.
Thornton water project
Adams 12 Five Star Schools Superintendent Chris Gdowski told Northglenn City Councilors Feb. 13 that more housing and a ordable housing is a strong interest for Adams 12. He said 15 acres of their property were sold to a housing developer, but it fell through due to water issues in ornton.
Current mayor said she seeks solutions to new problems
Growing up, Julia Marvin’s family owned a pizza restaurant and it was one of her rst jobs. It taught her some of the bedrock skills she continues to rely on today.
Now, she’s running for mayor and plans to use those skills to connect more of the community to local government. She’s been a city councilor since 2019.
“I ran because I wanted to make sure that there was a voice for the people and that there were advocates for the people in the community,” she said.
Voters will go to the polls in November to select the mayor for the next four years, as well as three City Councilors. Candidates can begin passing nomination forms and collecting signatures on Aug. 8.
Marvin said she’s been a voice for the people already on the council — breaking down barriers, engaging people and putting them in the driver’s seat — but she sees more work that needs to be done.
“I think there’s also a disconnect between our residents and their values and the representation on council,” she said.
If elected, she has eight big priorities: protecting ornton’s drinking water, a strong economy, smart growth, accessible multimodal transportation, accessible and accountable government, a ordable housing, safe neighborhoods and diverse community services.
She hopes to help create a strong economy that supports workers and provides opportunities for small businesses. Citing her family’s own small business, she wants to attract more co ee shops, restaurants, places to gather and other local entrepreneurs.
For housing, Marvin wants to take a look at zoning codes and attract more housing stock that is attainable and a ordable for residents.
“...Housing that if you’re a teacher, you can live here and work here,” she said.
Marvin said there are actions that ornton can take. One is land banking, where the city buys land and then partners with a housing authority to build a ordable and attainable housing.
She also thinks ornton should create mandates or incentives for new developments to make the new housing a ordable.
Renters need housing support, too, she said. A tool city sta presented but didn’t gain consensus on was the creation of a rental registry, she said. e registry would make landlords apply for a permit that would come with an inspection process.
e registry would also put landlord names and phone numbers on properties, making it easier for tenants to be able to contact them.
“It helps us understand what kind of housing stock we might have and what’s available and can help with long-term planning,” she said.
“Families here are struggling with the economy, with the cost of food, living and childcare,” Marvin said.
e role of local governments is to keep rates a ordable, whether that’s the rec center membership or water costs, she said. e cost of living also ties back to housing, she said, especially how local governments are supporting senior housing, a ordable housing and others.
Crime
Marvin said ornton’s Police Chief Terrence Gordon runs an excellent department and is one of the reasons ornton’s police department doesn’t have a lot of the problems other police departments do.
Gordon and his work is one side of the equation, she said. e other side is fully funding communities.
“When we underinvest in things like housing and infrastructure and schools and health care, that’s what creates the environments where crimes happen,” Marvin said.
Past issues
Marvin was part of 2022’s grassroots movement that called for campaign nance reform. A group of residents collected signatures to put the issue on the 2022 November ballot, but fell short collecting signatures.
If passed, the ordinance would have limited contributions to candidates, created more frequent reporting deadlines, and required more disclosures on campaign materials. It also would have banned corporate, special interest and union money and made it easier to understand rules that govern making donations.
Marvin said candidates don’t have to le campaign contributions until after the ballots have been mailed.
“If you were trying to nd out who’s funding the candidate, what kind of support they have and from where — especially if it’s coming from the wealthy donors or special interests — there’s not really a good way to be able to nd that,” she said.
Disappointed that the initiative didn’t get enough signatures, she also noted the process is designed for residents to fail.
“Our ballot initiatives also aren’t set up for regular residents to succeed at it. You have to get 10% of voters, that was 9,000 signatures, (and just ) 21 days to do it. If you’ve got a full volunteer base, like this group did, it’s tough,” she said.
She said that each person she talked to while gathering signatures –Democrats and Republicans alike –said they were surprised ornton didn’t already have those measures in place.
For this election, she plans to report out more frequently and her campaign will be powered by small donors. However, she said it can be tough to run within all the parameters that need to be changed when the other candidates are not.
“Because of the way the system is set up, how do you run within those parameters if no one else is running within those parameters?” she said.
Thornton Shopping Center
In a perfect world, Marvin said the city would have a resident-driven process to create a master plan for
redeveloping the recently acquired ornton Shopping Center.
“ is wouldn’t have happened without the advocacy from residents,” she said.
She said it’s important to hear the voice of the residents and what how they want the site transformed.
Residents also need to be able to work with a developer that understands the vision.
“Making sure that it really ts into the neighborhood and enhances it and doesn’t take away from it,” she said.
Part of those water issues is the ornton water project, and Kulmann said she’s been working on speeding up the project for the last few years by meeting with o cials in Weld and Larimer counties.
“Building those relationships was the key to be able to get through Weld County and into Larimer County,” she said. “ at relationship between me and the former mayor and with the Weld County Commissioners through the years, allowed us to open the door for conversations.”
She also said she’s been working with Congresswoman Yadira Caraveo about how she can bring support from the federal level.
“Pipelines are technical problems that can be solved by engineers. is is a housing concern. We need the water in the city of ornton in order to make sure that we have attainable housing for everyone,” she said.
PFAS
e Environmental Protection Agency set a new health advisory on June 15 at 0.0004 parts per trillion for PFOA and 0.02 parts per trillion for PFOS.
In May 2022, the ornton Water Treatment Plant measured 7.1 parts per trillion for PFOA and 3.5 parts per trillion for PFOS. e Wes Brown Water Treatment Plant saw 5.4 parts per trillion for PFOA and 2.0 parts per trillion for PFOS.
Kulmann emphasized that ornton got ahead of the game by notifying residents early before most other cities in Colorado did.
City Spokesperson Todd Barnes said meeting the new advisory will be costly with the need to update and upgrade water treatment facilities.
Kulmann said ornton taxpayers should not have to pay for those costs, and cited the lawsuit the city led against the sources of contamination.
“Our citizens should not have to pay to get that out of our water. You should be working with those that actually polluted the water to do that,” she said.
On Nov. 29, ornton city council approved a proposed 10-well fracking site at the southeast corner of the E-470 and I-25 intersection. Civitas, the company applying for the site, went through an operator agreement and sta recommended approval.
Even if the city council didn’t approve the project, it would’ve most likely been given the green light through a di erent route of authorization, she said.
As to whether ornton needs to raise their standards on oil and gas, she discussed how, as a council member, she helped update the city’s regulations.
“We ended up getting sued on eight of the items. One of them that I wrote was the only one we won in the lawsuit,” she said.
It’s tricky because the city needs to be careful to not overstep its bounds with the state, she said.
e Environmental Protection Agency set a new health advisory on June 15 at 0.0004 parts per trillion for PFOA and 0.02 parts per trillion for PFOS.
On Feb. 9, 2022, Former City Councilor Jacque Phillips was voted o council 5-4, with those for the removal citing a purchase of a home in Alamosa and starting a second job there. Marvin voted against it.
She said it was politically charged and that the process needs to be looked at. She said there weren’t parameters or objective measures for councilors to consider.
“Jacque could have presented what she did, like her voter registration, her car registration, she owns a house here and her law o ce is registered here,” Marvin said. “She had all of those things, but it wasn’t ‘that’s what’s considered residency.’”
Marvin said if the Ward 1 voters were unhappy with who was representing them, they could have initiated a recall election.
“It wasn’t a secret to anybody that Jacque did not get along with those ve counselors and so I think we knew going in (to the vote) what the intent was,” Marvin said.
One of the bigger issues is the ornton water project, and Marvin said the city is in the process of submitting another permit to Larimer County to allow a pipeline from the Cache La Poudre River to ornton. Marvin said it’s important to talk with Larimer to understand what they’re looking for.
“ e biggest thing is going to be working with Larimer County. It’s our water, we have the rights to it. So how do we make that happen while addressing some of the concerns that (Larimer has)?” she said.
In May 2022, the ornton Water Treatment Plant measured 7.1 parts per trillion for PFOA and 3.5 parts per trillion for PFOS. e Wes Brown Water Treatment Plant saw 5.4 parts per trillion for PFOA and 2.0 parts per trillion for PFOS.
City Spokesperson Todd Barnes said meeting the new advisory will be costly with the need to update and upgrade water treatment facilities. Marvin doesn’t want ornton residents on the hook for those costs.
“I strongly believe that the cost of cleanup should not be paid for by taxpayers. It should be paid by the people that are responsible for the contamination,” she said.
She cited the city moving forward with a lawsuit against those sources of contamination.
On Nov. 29, ornton city council approved a proposed 10-well fracking site at the southeast corner of the E-470 and I-25 intersection. Marvin was one of the votes against it.
“We have a responsibility to protect the health and safety of our residents,” she said.
Civitas, the company applying for the site, went through an operator agreement and sta recommended approval. According to Wahab, the negotiated terms are more protective than city and state requirements.
Even if city council didn’t approve the project, it would’ve most likely been given the green light through a di erent route of authorization.
Marvin sees certain city codes need to be updated and advocacy at the state level can help.

It has been a year and a half since Westminster’s proposed 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan has been awaiting formal adoption by city council. Sta had it ready in the fall of 2021 before the fateful change in control of the majority of the council. It’s pretty safe to say that the prior council led by then Mayor Anita Seitz and crew would have eked out the adoption of the plan as submitted by sta .
However, Mayor Nancy McNally and Councilors Bruce Baker, Obi Ezeadi and Sarah Nurmela bumped o the incumbents. is formed a 5-2 voting city council for the most
part on decisions, with Ezeadi and Nurmela being in the minority. However, more recently several decisions have been made on a 6-1 vote with Councilor Baker being the “lone ranger.”
During this 18 month delay, the “new” city council gave sta direction on changes to the plan as well as sta making some of their own recommended changes based on the lay of the land.
e lan has had a thorough review by city council and is ready for prime time.
March 13 is supposed day to adopt the plan
e Planning Commission has reviewed and recommended approval of the Plan to city council with one notable amendment: It would call for a senior living complex on land represented by Bill Kearney. e site would be close to the recently con-
demned site for Westminster’s new water treatment plant.
So, the stage is set for council’s formal adoption of the plan, which overall calls for less density than the current plan.
However, neither the sta nor the city council have touched the New Downtown area or the commuter rail station area. ese are the two areas heavy with existing allowed apartment land use designations. Both council and sta certainly had the opportunity to adjust and reduce the density overall or modify selected parcels to be something di erent than apartments.
For example, apartment density could be swapped out for townhomes. Now, the decision-point is down to the wire. e existing allowed additional apartment units at the New Downtown of approximately 1,500 units has been the 800 pound gorilla in the room all along.
But alas, no one showed any determination or initative to make changes.
It seems the current city council has forgotten the feedback from citizens during the campaign leading up to the November, 2021 city election. ere was and still is a clear message from the voters that they do not want more apartment complexes being built nor clustered together. ey have had enough along with the increased tra c, longer grocery lines, noise and air pollution etc. etc. So, what has happened to city council’s memory?
Some say the council is afraid to go against the sta ’s recommendation. Why didn’t sta take the initiative to o er changes?
Colorado’s largest and smallest coal mines both have Elk in their names and are reached by winding, mountain roads amid smile-inducing scenery. New Elk and West Elk, the two mines, also bucked the long-term decline of coal last year. ey actually increased production.
How long will they tilt against this industry trend?
Production in Colorado since 2003 has paralleled the downhill contour of a black-diamond ski slope, sliding from 39.9 million tons to 12.3 million tons.
Tonnage will almost certainly fall further. Nearly all of this coal clawed from the mines is burned to heat water and hence generate electricity. at era is passing. A coal-burning unit at Pueblo went dark in December, and Colorado’s remaining nine units will close by the time a fth-grade student graduates from high school, maybe sooner.
Wyoming’s Powder River Basin has supplied some of these coal plants. A major operator there, Arch Coal, has changed its name to Arch Resources. It plans to leave Western coal in coming years, including its lone operation in Colorado, the West Elk Mine, located near Paonia. For now, though, it’s riding the wave of higher coal prices and
investing just enough to keep going.
In 2022, West Elk production rose nearly 25% to nearly 4.4 million tons. On my late-night walks, I believe I have seen some of that coal rolling down the railroad line from the Mo at Tunnel through metropolitan Denver. I doubt these coal trains will be permanent.
e last “coal-powered power plant in the United States was built 10 years ago. And the average age is creeping up to 47-48 years,” said Paul Lang, the chief executive of Arch, during a 2022 call with investors. “I think we’ll see slowdown and retirements over the next two or three years. is thing is heading toward a pretty fast decline rate.”
West Elk as of 2021 had proven reserves of almost 47 million tons, according to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ling. at coal has high energy, superior to that of the Powder River Basin.
Clark Williams-Derry, an energy nancial analyst with the nonpro t Energy Institute for Economics and Financial Analysis, told me he can see West Elk bumping along with the production of 2.5 to 4.5 million tons per year, depending upon market prices. Or ramping down production to 1 to 3 million tons, delaying the outlay necessary for cleanup. Or, conceivably, nding somebody else to buy the mine.
Keep in mind, the reserves are limited. It can continue for 10 to 12 years at current rates of production. Arch

has laid plans to expand the mine.
e Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has been slow to process an air pollution permit application. Environmental groups have been nipping at the Polis administration’s heels. ey want a chance to kill expansion plans and avoid the disturbance of a roadless area. “We think this mine has outlived its usefulness,” says Jeremy Nichols, the climate and energy program director for the Denver o ce of WildEarth Guardians. Arch does see a future in metallurgical coal, which is used to produce steel from iron ore. e company has several such mines in West Virginia. ey deliver 10% of the company’s coal volume but 52% of its revenues.
Metallurgical coal was the premise for New Elk, a mine that had mostly been closed since the 1980s. It was reopened in 2021 by Australian owners with the declared intention to supply Asian steel-makers.
It’s in a beautiful location, about 30 miles west of Trinidad, with a backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains that holds your eyes hard. Coal from the mine was originally hauled by railroad to the steel mill in Pueblo. When the Pueblo mill began using electric-arc furnaces, the coal was sold for thermal purposes. e mine closed in the 1980s and the railroad tracks were yanked.

SEE CHRISTOPHER, P13Don’t kill trees to kill pests
It is heartening to know that the Westminster City Council considers trees to be important city “green infrastructure”.
My concern is that Ash trees will be sprayed with pesticides to combat the beetles. is is almost as bad as having the trees die.
My experience has been that spraying HERBICIDES around the roots of Ash trees has caused the weakening of the treesespecially Ash Trees which seem to be more sensitive to herbicides than some other trees. e tree’s “immune” system is often so a ected that it allows the trees to become weak enough to accept the beetles. Many times, having a strong tree or organism is the best defense for a disease rather than spraying or treating it after the fact.
I would encourage NO spraying of herbicides (which discourages “weeds” but also a ects other plants, such as trees) rather than spraying with dangerous pesticides which can a ect more than just Ash Borer beetles...it can a ect pets, people, pollinators, such as bees, etc as well as humans.

Deadline Wed. for the following week’s paper.
Others say council members are stuck on protecting property rights. However, let’s remember the Westminster city government i.e. the taxpayers OWN the undeveloped land at the New Downtown. ere are NOT landowners who would be impacted by changing the density to a lower residential use or changing the land use to something other than residential. ere would not be lawsuits brought against the city to worry about.
Quite frankly, I don’t understand the thinking and inaction by a good part of the council. I want to give them the bene t of the doubt, but there is nothing to grab ahold of. ey are elected to represent the citizens all on an at-large basis. If they doubt the public’s thinking against more apartments, they should call a time-out and do a professionally conducted opinion survey.
In the alternative, hold 10-12 listening sessions throughout the city conducted by a trained facilitator. e results will be the same. Enough apartments already would be their message!
Points to ponder
e land use plan before city council will be the roadmap for the remaining development and re-development in the city for the next 27 years. Yes, it can be amended by city
council, but normally the tenants of the plan remain for the duration.
Secondly, there is only approximately 2% of developable land left in Westminster. Does the council want to use up a sizeable piece in re-adopting the current New Downtown Plan which allows an approximate additional 1,500 apartment units? I certainly hope not!
Do Westminster voters want the current plan to prevail for the future? I don’t think so.
en nally there is the water issue. We should not overlook this limiting factor. Westminster is not ush with a lot of unallocated water resources to award for future development. In fact, sta is depending on further water conservation.
Does the Council want to use this limited supply toward another 1,500 apartment units? I certainly hope not.
Do the citizens of Westminster want to see the limited water supply used in this manner? I seriously don’t think so.
Action reflective of citizens’ feedback is needed
As the old saying goes, “actions speak louder than words.” Action is what is needed now. City council should modify the density at the New Downtown and should reexamine how many apartments make sense adjacent to the commuter rail station. ere is already a plethora of apartments within the train station area so balancing the mix of residential development on the remaining land is important.
You may recall the publicity last fall when cities and counties within the Metropolitan Football Stadium District (MFSD) received checks from the sale the Bronco’s franchise to the Walton family et al.
In our neck of the woods, the Cities of ornton and Northglenn have decided how best to utilize the windfall funds. Westminster’s Parks, Recreation and Library Department sta is still brainstorming its possibilities. e only caveat tied to the use of the funds is that it is tied to youth activity programs.
ornton’s share of the funds is $1,251,876. eir sta took a more comprehensive view in the distribution of the funds. Not only did Parks and Recreation receive funds ($997,000), the Police Department received $150,000 and the Fire Department netted $105,000. Parks and Rec earmarked their funds for enhancing free outdoor recreation opportunities for children with various amenities and purchasing an ADA accessible van for the Adaptive and Inclusive Recreation (AIR) Program. Funds in the Police Department will go toward equipment to enhance and assist various youth outreach programming.
Fire Department funds are earmarked for equipment involving
ornton Youth Community Outreach, Hook and Ladder and the Explorers.
Funding for Northglenn and Westminster e MFSD distribution of a portion of the franchise sale produced $394,396 for the City of Northglenn. Sta proposed funding be divided among four programs. A total of $30,000 is recommended for Northglenn Arts & Humanities Foundation scholarships and added value to youth arts programming. Another $30,000 would go to enhance existing events and create new events for children and teens. en $200,000 was recommended for an aquatic adventure course leveraging funding as a grant match. Finally, $134,398 would go to the construction of Odell Barry Park which is a current underfunded project.
Westminster’s portion of the “sharing amount” is approximately $1.6 million. No speci cs on how the funds will be earmarked have been released to date.

tracks, but that has been postponed. Meanwhile, the Trinidad Chronicle-News reports setbacks. One was the di culty in attracting experienced coal miners. Trinidad, if lacking Front Range prosperity, still has insu cient housing. Go gure. New Elk also shifted sales from overseas markets to domestic coal plants. Also, the day before writing this column, Allegiance Coal USA, the owner of the New Elk Mine, led for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

In Boulder, a new company is trying to create a chemical process for making steel that will bypass the need for metallurgical coal. Maybe this company will succeed, maybe not. As for the Pueblo steel mill, it sits amid a sea of solar panels. Electricity has enough heat to repurpose recycled steel.
Coal will be with us for decades yet, particularly in Asian countries. Here, we’re moving past the fuel that made our lives so much easier. We have cheaper fuels — and yes, they pose less risk of pollution to our atmosphere.

It is with profound sadness the family of James E (Jim) Davidson announce his passing on 19 February 2023, at the age of 94. Jim was surrounded by love with his family at his bedside during his nal breath. While Jim is no longer by our side, he will forever be in our hearts.
Jim was born in Paris, Illinois to Cli ord and Zella (Knight) Davidson. He proudly served his country by enlisting in the U. S. Army, along with three of his high school buddies. He attained the rank of Sergeant, and was awarded the WW II Victory Medal, as well as the Army of Occupation Medal –Japan. Jim and his wife of 67 years, Shirley Edwards, moved to Westminster, Colorado, along with his mother, shortly after they wed. Together they raised two loving children, his daughter Cindy, married to Craig, and his son Alan, married to Nita. Jim was a Data Processor and retired from the Sunstrand Corporation, and later worked for Lange Ski Company.. He spent time with love and support with his 13 grandchildren, 17
great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren.
Jim was a man of few words, but if you listened to him speak, he wouldn’t hesitate to share words of wisdom. He loved his family and was never too busy to o er a helping hand and would give the shirt o his back to anyone in need. Jim loved everything western, playing golf, taking drives in the mountains, traveling, and being with his family. He left a lasting legacy on family values, sel essness, investing in those he cared for, and how to provide for his wife and children. Jim was a lifetime member of Prairie Lodge #77, Paris, Illinois. He volunteered for two of his granddaughters during their time in Job’s Daughters.
Sgt James E Davidson will be interned at Ft Logan National Cemetery on Monday, 6 March 2023, at 10 am, at staging area A.
In lieu of owers, the family request donations be made to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. (nationalmssociety.org)
2023 has already been a big year for Make-A-Wish.
Wish Week fundraisers have been in full swing at local schools this winter, and basketball legend Michael Jordan donated $10 million — the largest individual donation ever — to the national organization last month. And spring 2023 could be even bigger.
Make-A-Wish Colorado celebrates its 40th anniversary this year and is hosting an anniversary celebration and fundraiser in April in Denver. Since it started, Make-A-Wish Colorado has granted more than 6,000 wishes for children with critical illnesses as a way of giving them hope and something to look forward to during their treatment.
Golden’s Ben Bontrager, 10, went to Hawaii for his wish last spring. He was diagnosed in early 2020 with Burkitt’s lymphoma and was sick for almost a year, with his mom Sarah saying, “We almost lost him a couple times.”
Ben, who’s now in remission, said going to Hawaii was “the rst thing idea that popped in my head,” because he wanted to get out and do something fun.
“I was sick of being home,” he continued.
Now, Ben and his family are becoming Make-A-Wish ambassadors so that they can help other families through the same process.
Dad Je Bontrager said Ben’s wish was a “bright spot” to think about during those long days at the hospital, adding, “ e thought that (MakeA-Wish) has done it over and over for people, it’s really pretty amazing.”
For Jennifer
Joan Mazak has been the proverbial fairy godmother for thousands of Colorado children after she founded the organization in 1983. She started it in honor of her daughter, Jennifer, who died at 7 years old of a liver disease.
Mazak recalled how, about a week before Jennifer’s death, she was granted an uno cial wish to meet local radio mascot KIMN Chicken. He stopped by the family’s house, walking around the entire property hand-in-hand with Jennifer. Many of the neighborhood children stopped by to see KIMN Chicken, but he was focused on making Jennifer feel special.
“It was great for her to be able to have that,” Mazak said.
After Jennifer’s death, Mazak used funds that people had raised for a liver donation to start Make-A-Wish
Colorado. ere were only three other chapters in the country and no national organization yet, she said. e local chapter was all volunteers working out of their homes, helping to create memories for children who needed them. Mazak said the very rst wish was to catch a sh, so they set up a shing trip at Dillon Reservoir.
Longtime volunteer Gary Aboussie recalled wishes to meet the pope and the Broncos. One of his favorite stories was sending a guitar to Bruce Springsteen to sign, him keeping that one, and sending back his own guitar instead with a special message. Mazak said of wishes: “ ey come in all shapes and sizes. ere are so many logistics to putting together a single wish. It’s di erent for every single family.”
About 20 years ago, Make-A-Wish Colorado started partnering with local schools for Wish Week fundraisers. Mazak said it’s been a winwin situation, as it helps instill philanthropy in the students and raises money for their sick peers. Plus, she always loves seeing schools’ creative fundraising methods, like shaving teachers’ heads or taping their principals to the wall.
While nancial contributions are needed, so are volunteers.
Aboussie described how meeting Make-A-Wish children and their families “touches your mind and heart.” So, he works to help however he can — whether that’s serving on the board of directors or speaking at events.
“(Volunteering) shows you how much more there is to do,” he said. “… We can’t stop the problems, but we can ease the e orts and give the
child something to dream about when they’re going through the possibly the most di cult time of their life.”
Both Aboussie and Mazak stressed how much these children and their families need “a sense that there will be a better tomorrow,” as Aboussie described it. ey said these children also need to feel normal after feeling di erent during their formative years.
Castle Rock’s Jack Rodell, 8, might be a little shy, except when it comes to talking about the best day of his life.
On Nov. 14, Jack was the guest of honor at a Colorado Avalanche game. He described the entire day in detail, saying he met the players, got his own jersey and more. Jack, who wants to be a professional hockey player when he grows up, was diagnosed with leukemia but has been in remission for two years. His wish was delayed because of COVID-19.
Over the past few years, he’s represented Make-A-Wish Colorado at fundraising events, and he and his family are now becoming wish ambassadors, like the Bontragers.
“When your kid is diagnosed with cancer, and you just live appointment to appointment, it’s very lonely,” his mom Krystalyn said. “… In his head, he just feels di erent. … It’s nice to see other people celebrate him, and it’s something he’ll remember for the rest of his life.”
at’s something Denver’s Austen Swinton can con rm.
Swinton, who’s graduating from the University of Colorado-Boulder this spring, was diagnosed with end-stage renal failure as a child and eventually received a kidney transplant. For her wish, she met singer and actress Demi Lovato at a July 2009 concert.
After the two met backstage, Lovato pulled Swinton on stage and asked her to sing “ is Is Me” for the crowd. Swinton said she didn’t have stage fright at all, and Lovato sang with her.
e two reunited last year when Swinton spoke at World Wish Day in California where Lovato was being honored for helping Make-AWish.
Swinton, now 23, said her experiences with Make-A-Wish helped brighten her life when she needed it most.
“Looking back at how much I was going through at that age — I was only 10 or 11 when I was on dialysis — I was missing out on some of those peak childhood moments,” she continued. “ … Everyone says how much a wish impacts a child. You don’t truly know until you’re living that experience.”
Having a wish granted is the best day in a child’s life, Jack described, and now he’s hoping he can help other children as an ambassador, paying forward all the kindness he received.
“People really helped me, and I want to help other people so they feel the same way,” Jack said. “I felt special. I felt really happy. … I want other kids to feel happy.”
There’s nothing wrong with taking a new approach to a beloved event — that’s how new perspectives and stories get added to familiar ones. In his second year as general manager of the JCC Mizel Arts and Culture Center, Rich Cowden decided to do just that in preparation for the annual Denver Jewish Film Festival.
“I used the rst year as a listening tour and one of the things that came up during the process was that we could add some new elements to the festival without throwing away the things that worked so well,” he explained. “We wanted some space for more diversity in the line-up and started looking at how we select lms every year.”
To inject new viewpoints into the festival, Cowden changed how lms were selected, bringing in younger people to share the stories that connected with them and made it easier for members of the pre-screening and lm selection committees to work through the more than 300 submissions the festival receives every year.
“We also opened a second space at the center for lm screenings, so we can show more lms,” he said.
“What people will nd this year is we’re making inroads into a more diverse portfolio of lms.” is year’s festival, which is presented by e Chotin Foundation and runs from March 11 through March 19 at the JCC Mizel Arts and Culture Center , 350 S. Dahlia St. in Denver, re ects those e orts to expand the frame - there are 39 Israeli and Jewish lms, including nine shorts and one television mini-series, hailing from 14 countries. For those who can’t attend in person, lms will be streaming ondemand from March 20 through March 29.
With so many entries, there are truly options for all to enjoy, but one that Cowden particularly cited is the closing night feature, “ e Man in the Basement,” a psychological thriller based on a true story, about a French couple whose cellar is rented out to an anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist.
As an organization that never shies away from fostering conversation, the festival will also screen “Blue Box,” a documentary about e orts to secure land in Palestine. It is just one of the lms that will have an audience discussion afterwards, so viewers can share their thoughts and get more information on the topics the lm delves into.
“I want people who may think a festival like this is not for them to take a chance and have conversations around the lms, the themes
and ideas they present, and build a conversation around Jewish culture that is healthy, tolerant and lled with compassion,” Cowden said. “I really believe in the power of art to build bridges where everyone is trying to build walls. ese lms then become a conduit for connection between people, and that’s ultimately why we do this.”

“I’m a hope dealer,” explained
e Denver Dream Center mainly works with formerly incarcerated people who leave prison and end up without a place to live after their release, something Andrews understands personally.
“I was released on May 11th of last year and was connected with the Dream Center and they helped me put my life back together,” explained Andrews, adding that he
“It’s rough getting out prison after 33 years of incarceration, and not knowing how to use a phone, and not knowing how to go grocery shopping.”
According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition, formerly incarcerated people are almost 10 times more likely to experience homelessness than the general population.
After spending time in and out of prison for several years, then experiencing homelessness, Tyrone ompkins told Rocky Mountain PBS how excited he is to nally move into his own home soon.
“I’ll be moving into an apartment on the rst of March, the day of my birthday!” he said excitedly, crediting the Denver Dream Center for making it happen.
Now ompkins works for the organization as a part of the street team that does direct outreach with the unhoused in Denver, many of whom were formerly incarcerated
“It’s time for me to go back out into the community that I was destroying and help,” he said. “It has changed my life and I’m truly blessed.”
Bryan Sederwall moved to Denver 16 years ago and immediately saw the necessity to connect those experiencing homelessness with not only resources, but also hope and inspiration.
“We say ‘See a need, then meet the need.’ We do everything from helping men and women transition from incarceration, or get out of gangs, and get back to community and reestablish their families,” said Sederwall.

Sage Naumann, a former sta er at the Colorado legislature, was conducting his occasional nerd search of state relics on eBay when a pricey item caught his eye: “ORIGINAL BRONZE WALL SCONCE FROM THE COLORADO STATE CAPITOL BLDG. IN DENVER COLO.”
e list price of the enormous artifact? Available from a Littleton seller for the cool price of $8,995, or $431.82 a month over 24 months with PayPal credit. Local pickup only.
“Own a piece of Colorado history,” the listing says.
Naumann posted about his discovery on social media earlier this year, prompting a short blurb on a political news website. at tipped o the legislature’s Capitol Building Advisory Committee, responsible for maintaining the historic integrity of all things Colorado Capitol. e panel quickly determined it wants the sconce — a decorative light xture — back. Like, yesterday.
“ is is clearly state property and it is the responsibility of the Capitol Building Advisory Committee to keep state property in the Capitol,” Jeanette Chapman, a nonpartisan sta er for the committee, said during a hearing last week.
e panel is debating how to retrieve the xture. Ideas on the table
include purchasing the sconce (it’s unclear where the money would come from), sending the Colorado State Patrol to seize the item (that’s been done with other Capitol relics), or asking the seller to donate the large and expensive light xture back to the state, perhaps as a tax writeo .
e panel also is trying to determine if the sconce was stolen or procured legally.
“It’s really hard to ascertain what’s stolen property and what’s not,” said Kurt Morrison, who sits on the committee and works as a lobbyist for Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser. “For all we know, in the 1940s the legislature could have upgraded all their lighting and they put those up for sale and someone legally bought that.”
Morrison said if the sconce was illegally acquired, the eBay listing is likely to be pulled down by the seller quickly, never to be found again, once they learn the state wants it back. One committee member halfjokingly suggested the panel reach out to eBay’s lobbyist for help.
Rep. William Lindstedt, a Broomeld Democrat who sits on the committee, reminded the panel that items posted for sale on eBay are sometimes o ered for only a limited time. “It could just disappear tomorrow,” he said. “Just something to consider.”
e eBay listing has prompted a larger discussion about how to get missing Capitol relics back when they are discovered. e Capi-
tol Building Advisory Committee openly debated last week pursuing legislation that would make it easier to reclaim historic items. is isn’t, after all, the rst time that a valuable object from the Capitol, which opened in 1894, has turned up for sale.
In 2004, a door knob from the Capitol was listed on eBay. e knobs are valuable and tough to replace, so the Colorado State Patrol was sent to retrieve it.
(A similar knob was sold on eBay earlier this month by a seller in Brule, Nebraska, who claimed: “I am
told this was acquired directly from the Colorado state Capitol when it was remodeled around 1952 to 1953.”)
State o cials may have some legal authority to retrieve Capitol history, but Nicole Myers, a lawyer with the O ce of Legislative Legal Services, said the power isn’t absolute.
“We’ve looked into whether the General Assembly would have any recourse,” she told the advisory committee. “I don’t have a de nitive answer.”

Currently, when a lease ends the landlord can decide whether the tenant gets to stay. For example, they could simply refuse to o er a renewal of the current lease — forcing the tenant to leave or be evicted. at system makes it too easy for landlords to get rid of renters, even if the renters have done nothing wrong, said Rep. Javier Mabrey, a Democratic sponsor of the bill, H.B. 23-1171.
‘’When their leases are up, the landlord refuses to o er a new lease,” Mabrey said at a committee hearing on Wednesday. “We’re trying to prevent that kind of retaliation.”
Under the new proposal, some of the power would shift to the tenant. In many cases, landlords would essentially be required to o er a renewal of the lease in “substantially identical” terms. If they fail to do so, renters could keep paying rent under the terms of the previous lease — and they would be protected from eviction.
Opponents of the bill, including real-estate interests and smaller landlords, warned it would place an undue burden on landlords. ey also said it could lead some to leave the market or raise rents. e proposal would allow landlords to make a “reasonable” rent increase when they renew the lease. But Mabrey said that was not meant to act as a form of rent control. (He is running another bill on that topic.)
“We’re just trying to prevent retaliatory rent increases,” Mabrey said.
At the hearing, renters and their advocates described cases where landlords refused to renew leases for retaliatory or discriminatory reasons, such as because of a renter’s immigration status or because the renter had asked for repairs. Others talked about being forced out of their homes as the landlord pursued higher rents.
“ is goes back to the prevention of homelessness and making sure that we keep people in their homes,” said Rep. Serena GonzalesGuttierez, a Democratic cosponsor of the bill. Sen. Julie Gonzales also is sponsoring the bill.
Almost four years after becoming the rst state to cap insulin
copayments, Colorado may limit what consumers pay for epinephrine autoinjectors, also known as EpiPens, which treat serious allergic reactions.
A proposed state law would cap out-of-pocket copays at $60 for a two-pack of epinephrine autoinjec-
tors. In 2007, the wholesale price of a single EpiPen was about $47. Today, two brand-name autoinjectors cost just under $636 at a Walgreens in Denver, according to GoodRx. At some pharmacies a generic pen sells for $100 to $200, which is still expensive for many people.
e bill is the latest example in a nationwide push by states to address the soaring prices of lifesaving drugs. New Hampshire passed a law in 2020 requiring insurance to cover the autoinjectors, and Rhode Island
SEE INSULIN, P21health care ght at the state Capitol this legislative session.
e issue has to do with facility fees, charges that hospitals bill to insurers and patients to cover their own costs of providing care, separate from what a doctor gets paid. To consumer advocates, these fees too often seem like predatory add-on charges meant to enhance the hospital’s bottom line at the expense of the patient’s pocketbook. Hospitals say these fees are vital sources of revenue — often the only way they can get paid to keep nurses employed, the lights on and the oors clean at the clinic.
e practice of charging facility fees has proliferated in recent years — both in Colorado and nationally — as hospitals acquire once-independent doctor’s o ces, open their own ocampus clinics and increasingly encourage patients to receive treatment in outpatient settings.
But this has created confusion and frustration for patients. Doctor’s visits that used to come with only one charge now come with two. And the facility fee can also hide in bills, often not being labeled even as clearly as it was in the Kruses’ bills.
Now, Democrats at the state legislature have introduced a proposal to ban hospitals from charging facility fees in most outpatient circumstances.
e legislation, House Bill 1215, would prohibit facility fees for outpatient visits at clinics and o ces that are not on a hospital’s main campus. It would also prohibit hospitals from charging facility fees for outpatient services at on-campus locations, such as in the hospital, if the state Medical Services Board rules that the service could have been provided safely at an o -campus location.
“Facility fees are simply another way that hospital CEOs are lining their pockets at the expense of patients, and we simply can’t let this continue,” state Rep. Emily Sirota, D-Denver, said in a statement after the bill was introduced last month.
at’s one version of what the bill would do: reduce runaway health care costs for patients while not really harming hospitals’ ability to provide needed care.
Hospitals, of course, see it di erently. ey estimate the nancial hit
to hospitals statewide would be $9 billion, and they warn that could result in hospitals closing outpatient clinics and shifting more people to costlier inpatient care, while pushing some rural health systems to the brink of insolvency.
“ is proposal is so incredibly vast and all-encompassing, it’s just completely disconnected from the way things really work,” said Zach Zaslow, the interim vice president of population health and advocacy at Children’s Hospital Colorado.
Finding the truth in the rhetoric ese two versions of the story can’t both be true. So, which one is?
Glen Mays, an expert on health systems at the Colorado School of Public Health, says both stories contain a bit of truth. Undeniably, facility fees are being charged more often in more places, he said. And those fees increase the overall cost of health care.
But hospitals also have come to depend on facility fees. If they lose much of that revenue and can’t replace it by increasing charges elsewhere, they could be in a real bind.
“ e question would be: What is the magnitude of that kind of impact?” Mays said.
To understand the potential magnitude, it helps to know what goes into a medical bill. Hospitals — and their a liated clinics — can charge for the drugs they administer or the equipment they use. But a bill is generally made up of two big fees.
e rst is what is called the professional fee. is is the money that goes to the doctor, and in olden times it was likely the only major charge that patients saw. You had an earache, you went to your local, independent doctor’s o ce and the doctor charged you a professional fee for the treatment visit. at fee covered the entire cost of care — from the doctor’s salary all the way down to the clinic’s trash bill.
But hospitals were in a unique spot: Especially in places like their emergency departments, hospitals needed to be fully sta ed and ready to go even when patients weren’t coming in. us was born the facility fee, something that hospitals could charge patients to help fund the facility’s operations, and it’s been around for decades.
“It’s a distortion in payment that’s been baked into Medicare and it’s been baked into a lot of private health insurance plans,” Mays said.
As hospitals have bought up outpa-
tient clinics — or opened their own — facility fees have begun popping up on bills in more places, even on things like telehealth visits where a patient doesn’t leave their own home for care. Citing Medicare data, Mays said professional fees charged at a clinic often decrease when the clinic becomes a liated with a hospital system. But, with a facility fee added on, the overall cost of care goes up, putting more burden on insurers and patients.
“ e combined fee is higher than a single fee,” Mays said.
So, for proponents of the new legislation, this suggests a tidy solution: If facility fees are banned in most outpatient settings, hospitals will switch to recouping their expenses through the professional fee and the entire charge will be less than what it was when facility fees were being charged.
“We see that these facility fees do not always connect to the cost of care in any understandable way,” said Isabel Cruz, the policy manager for the Colorado Consumer Health Initiative, which supports the bill. “And our understanding is that the professional fee does reimburse them for costs.”
But what happens if the answer isn’t so tidy?
When hospitals don’t employ doctors
Children’s Hospital Colorado is one of the U.S. West’s premier pediatric health systems. But, despite expecting nearly 1 million patient visits this year, Children’s employs almost no doctors.
Instead, nearly 98% of the physicians who work at the hospital are employed by CU Medicine, an arm of the University of Colorado School of Medicine. What this means from a billing perspective is that CU Medicine charges the professional fee, not Children’s.
“Children’s Hospital Colorado does not and cannot bene t from this fee,” Dr. David Brumbaugh, Children’s chief medical o cer, wrote in an email.
e hospital also does not charge its physicians for the use of its facilities.
at means, according to the hospital, that the facility fee is the only way for Children’s to get paid for the care its nurses and therapists provide, for its administrative sta , for its child life specialists who make the hospital a less-scary place for young patients.
Roughly 98% of the care that the hospital provides is outpatient — part of a concerted e ort by hospitals across the state and country to move
patients from costlier inpatient settings into more e cient and accessible outpatient ones.
“It’s a misguided approach that will only intensify access-to-care challenges,” Zaslow said.
“ is thing comes out of nowhere at you.”
Kruse said she and her husband did all the due diligence they could to avoid an unexpected medical bill. But facility fees often hide under other names.
“If you go online, they roll the facility fee into something that looks like it’s doctors care,” she said. is only adds to the confusion when patients receive a separate charge or bill for the professional fee.
As an example, look at UCHealth. e giant health system, Colorado’s largest, posts price lists online for all the services it o ers, in compliance with federal rules. If you are insured through Anthem, for instance, and you get an outpatient colonoscopy at the University of Colorado Hospital, the price list says the charge will be $2,394.76.
Except, that’s not the full price. It’s just the facility fee — even though it’s not labeled as such. e cost for the doctor and potentially other services, like anesthesia, will be more. is confusion shows up again and again in patient stories. A dad in Colorado Springs who thought he was only going to be charged $238 professional fee for a brain scan for his son was shocked when a $2,518 facility fee bill later arrived.
“ ere’s nothing you can call it besides a surprise bill,” he told Fox 31, which investigated the bill and was told that it was ultimately reduced. When Kruse realized there was a di erence between the doctor’s fee and the facility fee for her husband’s cardiology visits at National Jewish, she was upset. Why hadn’t anyone explained this to her?
“ ey said you have to ask about it,” she said. “How do you ask about something you don’t know exists?”
“ is thing comes out of nowhere at you.”

lawmakers are considering a similar measure this year. No state has capped what consumers pay for EpiPens, though the New Jersey Senate passed a bill in June to do so; that measure is pending in the legislature’s lower house.
e average launch prices of drugs in the United States increased nearly 11% every year from 2008 to 2021, according to a study published last year. Price increases can skyrocket even higher for items such as epinephrine autoinjectors, a market dominated by EpiPen maker Viatris, a global pharmaceutical company.
“If you have very little competition in the market, the way the U.S. drug pricing system works is that the manufacturers get to set the price at which they want to sell the drug, and they can increase it whenever they so choose,” said Erin Taylor, a senior health care policy researcher at Rand Corp., a global policy think tank. “One way to shift costs back to health plans and manufacturers, and to help patients pay less for their drugs, is to apply these caps.”
e Colorado legislation would cap EpiPen copays for both insured and uninsured people starting in 2024. Almost 566,000 Coloradans have life-threatening food allergies, according to the bill. People can also have severe reactions to insect bites, medications, and latex.
“ e need for EpiPens doesn’t
discriminate based on who you are,” said state Rep. Iman Jodeh, a Democrat who is sponsoring the bill. “ is unfortunate trend we were seeing of lifesaving medication being completely unattainable or out of reach for people is something that we are really trying to put an end to.”
Colorado was the rst to limit copays for insulin
In 2019, Colorado became the rst state to enact a law that set a $100 limit on monthly copays for insulin, a hormone that regulates the blood sugar of people with diabetes.
Since then, 21 other states, plus Washington, D.C., have implemented laws limiting insulin costs. Congress imposed a $35 insulin copay cap for seniors on Medicare, and, in his recent State of the Union address, President Joe Biden called for expanding this cap to every American.
“Insulin has been the poster child of copay caps,” said Geo rey Joyce, director of health policy at the University of Southern California Schae er Center for Health Policy & Economics.
However, the caps are an imperfect solution to high prescription costs. Decreasing the price of a drug for some insurance members means increasing premiums for others, said Taylor. “A cap doesn’t lower the list price of the drug, so somebody else has to pick up the di erence,” she said. Caps also don’t address why drugs are so expensive in the rst place.
Drug manufacturers and pharmacy bene t managers, or PBMs — the go-between companies that
negotiate with drugmakers on how much insurance plans and consumers will pay for drugs — both play a signi cant role in drug pricing, Joyce said. Besides pricing their products high enough to ensure a hefty pro t, manufacturers often give PBMs a rebate in exchange for having their product included in the PBM’s list of preferred drugs, which in uences what consumers buy. Rising rebates demanded by PBMs are associated with increasing prices for prescription drugs, according to a white paper by USC Schae er.
“Everybody has their hand in the trough,” said Joyce. In response to broader concerns about the drug pricing system, diabetes activists have been pushing for caps on insulin prices, not just copays.
It’s hard to say whether more states will follow Colorado’s lead and cap out-of-pocket costs for drugs like EpiPens, but there does seem to be a political appetite for controlling specialty drug costs, said Taylor.
“It bothers people fundamentally and ethically that these lifesaving drugs are inaccessible for people,” said Joyce. “People need access to these drugs.”

DENVER – Riverdale
Ridge’s girls basketball team would love to have a do-over of a three-minute stretch of the fourth quarter against D’Evelyn Junior-Senior High School.
e Jaguars scored 11 straight points, kept the Ravens from scoring, broke open a close game and went on to a 54-47 win in the round of 8 in the state 4A girls basketball tournament March 3 at the Denver Coliseum.
“Our immaturity showed a little bit,” said RRHS coach Tim Jones. “We had a couple of lapses that you would expect from the experience we have.”
e two teams played the game within a 12-point window. RRHS’ biggest lead was seven points. e two teams traded baskets for much of the second half until the Jaguars started their gamewinning run.
Freshman Brihanna Crittendon, who spent much of the game facing o against several Jaguars’ defenders, led RRHS with 28 points and eight rebounds. Gabby Herr was next with six points.
e Jaguars’ Peyton Marvel scored a career-high and school best-ever high of 36 points. Macy Sheer added seven.
RRHS defense held the Jaguars in check through much of the contest.
D’Evelyn managed a pair of 3-point shots. One of those came during the winning spurt in the fourth quarter.
“It’s been multiple games that we haven’t been shooting our 3s very well,” Marvel said. “We know we can win just doing our 2s. e 3s were a big help in the end. It’s hard to not shoot 3s and
Holy Family’s boys basketball team doesn’t mind the No. 17 seed in this year’s class 4A state boys basketball tournament, nor does it mind the third quarter.
e Tigers rode a 23-point third quarter to an easy, 6043 win over eighth-seeded Colorado Academy at the Denver Coliseum March 3. Earlier in the tournament, Holy Family used a 31-point third quarter to oust the top seed, Kent Denver.
e win over the Mustangs sends HFHS into the semi-
nals ursday, March 9, against Eagle Ridge Academy. Tip time is 12:45 p.m. ursday, March 9, at the Coliseum.
Holy Family made 11, 3-point baskets in the win over Colorado Academy. Five of them came in the decisive third period. George Buyers led the Mustangs with 11 points. Jason Brats was close behind with 10. Gabe Tafoya led the Tigers with 18 points, including four baskets from the 3-point line. Eric Quintana tossed in 13, and Rocco Bridges poured in 11.

only shoot 2s. But we gured it out.” e win moves D’Evelyn into a semi nal round match against either Eaton or University, e loss ends RRHS’ season. e Ravens posted a mark of 22-4. RRHS made its second appearance in the state tournament in as many years.
“We’re a tough team. We’re tough as nails. We’re young, and we’re scrappy,” Jones said. “We only lose
one kid. Our mentality changes. at (the loss down the stretch) just encourages us and inspires the girls. e girls are excited to get back to work.”
“We knew Brihanna would score every time down,:” Marvel said. “It was amazing to have that 10-point lead (at the end).”
“ e best thing was them coming together,”Jones said. “It’s an asset. We work nine to 10 months out of the year, private coaches. en they come in and work together. is wasn’t a surprise. It makes our sta ’s lives easier.”

Senate Majority Leader Dominick Moreno, a Commerce City Democrat who sits on the Capitol Building Advisory Committee, believes the state’s legal footing depends on when the sconce was installed.
“ e provision of statute that I think is most applicable here is around whether this sconce is original,” he said during last week’s committee hearing.
“ e statute is pretty clear that furniture original to the state Capitol building shall remain in the state Capitol at all times.”
Legislative sta ers believe the gasand-electric sconce, which has glass shades etched with the state seal, was
Drew Hamrick, a representative of the Colorado Apartment Association, argued that renters already have protections against certain non-renewals. State and federal law already forbid landlords from refusing to renew for a variety of reasons, including as retaliation for making maintenance requests or as an act of discrimination against protected classes, he said.
Mabrey, the sponsor, argued that those laws are hard to enforce because it’s often impossible to prove why a landlord has refused to renew a lease. A broader law will protect more people’s rights, he said.
“It is incredibly hard, incredibly
once displayed in the governor’s o ce. Former state Sen. Lois Court, a Denver Democrat who chairs the building advisory committee, said that “heightens the conversation” around its importance.
e seller wrote on their eBay listing that they believe the sconce was removed during Capitol restoration in the 1950s. “Some of the original ttings were removed and discarded,” the listing says. “ is is one of those original xtures.”
e seller posted that the sconce has “shu ed around for about the last 70 years or so.” ey estimate the xture, which is 3 feet tall and extends 2 feet from the wall, is 125 years old.
“THE CONDITION OF THIS SCONCE IS ACTUALLY SUPERB!” the listing says.
ere’s reason to believe the seller,
hard to prove discrimination in court … especially for a pro se tenant who doesn’t have an attorney,” he said.
Hamrick said landlords need to be able to end a rental relationship. It’s often the best way to deal with issues where a renter is misbehaving but the landlord can’t prove it, he said.
“Just hold your noses, let it go for another three months, and (don’t) renew the lease,” he said of the current approach, which he favors.
e bill would still allow landlords to evict people who commit “substantial” violations of the lease, including failure to pay or refusing to let a landlord into the property.
In other situations, though, landlords would have to pay to get rid of renters.
For example, if a property owner wanted to demolish, renovate or
who has sold 242 items on eBay and has 100% positive feedback, knows what they’re talking about. ey have other lighting items posted for sale, though the Capitol sconce is by far the most expensive.
e seller also doesn’t seem afraid to reveal their identity, as several of the eBay listing images feature a man who appears to be holding up the sconce so it can be properly photographed.
An eBay message from e Colorado Sun to the seller was not returned. e Capitol Building Advisory Committee was also planning to reach out through eBay to the person or people who posted the sconce.
Naumann, the Capitol history bu , originally found the sconce listing on eBay in early January. He said it’s unclear when the item was rst o ered for sale.
redevelop their home, they would have to provide “relocation assistance” to the renter, paying the renter the equivalent of at least two months’ rent. e same would apply when owners want to live in the property themselves.
In those situations, the landlord would have to give up to 120 days’ notice, which advocates argued would help tenants nd a new place.
One witness, eviction defense attorney Spencer Bailey, described the case of an 87-year-old man he represented, for whom he used a pseudonym.
“He had always paid his rent on time. Mr. Jones had never broken any rules, never had any complaints. He was given only three weeks to move out after living in a place for almost two decades, and he had nowhere to
“Look, most of these items were discarded by the state during renovations decades ago,” Naumann said. “ e only reason we rediscover them is when an entrepreneurial individual like this eBay seller decides to list it online. We shouldn’t make that a crime. If the state wants the sconce back, it should make an o er.”
Besides, he said, most people with a passion for antiques and history would likely love to help return items like the sconce back to the Capitol.

go,” Bailey said, adding that the man had been on a month-to month lease.
e bill “would give people like Mr. Jones substantially more time to nd somewhere to live,” Bailey said.
Five other states have a similar “just cause” or “good cause” eviction law, including New Jersey, California, New Hampshire, Oregon, Washington, according to the National Low Income Housing Coalition. ough those states’ laws have di erent details.
e bill’s next step is the House oor, where it would need to win a majority of the chamber. It also would require approval by the Senate before it heads to Gov. Jared Polis.

If any section, paragraph, clause, word, or any other part of this ordinance shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such part shall be deemed as severed from this ordinance. The invalidity or unenforceability of such part shall not affect the construction or enforceability of any of the remaining provisions of the ordinance unless it is determined by the court that a contrary result is necessary for this ordinance to have its intended meaning.

A year after Colorado lawmakers denied employees of school districts and public universities the right to unionize and negotiate contracts, legislators are considering a bill that would provide some protections for them and other public sector employees.
Senate Bill 111 would extend rights for public employees who openly express views about the workplace, start the process of forming a union, or participate in organizing. Public workers would also be protected from retaliation, discrimination, and intimidation from employers. Private sector employees already have these rights under federal law. e bill doesn’t require public employers to recognize unions or grant workers the ability to strike. But the legislation, which a Senate committee advanced Tuesday, could represent a notable step forward for K-12 and higher education workers who want stronger labor protections for what they say are crucial workplace rights.
Critics who united to exclude education sta from a law expanding collective bargaining rights last year say this year’s legislation is unnecessary, unfair to employers, and would hurt schools.
Jade Kelly, CWA Local 7799 president, said the bill extends some rights granted to private employees through the National Labor Relations Act, a 1935 law to ensure work-
ers can advocate for better conditions and form labor unions without retaliation. Her union represents higher education workers, library workers, and public defenders, among others.
She said public employees do have certain rights under federal statutes. But Kelly said that employers often violate those laws because a federal complaint must be led by workers when there are issues. It’s a di cult process that creates hostile work environments where public employees feel they can’t speak out, she said.
Kelly said ling a complaint is expensive and takes up a lot of time and “employers know that.”
By extending the federal rights for private workers to public workers statewide, the bill would ensure the Colorado Department of Labor & Employment enforces these rights and step in when violations happen, mediate any issues, and take action.
Democrats in the state legislature have been pushing for more rights for public sector workers. e legislation lawmakers passed last year grants county employees the right to organize and bargain collectively over pay and working conditions. at law also prohibits strikes, work stoppages, and work slowdowns. But facing sti opposition from school district administrators, school boards, higher education o cials, and Democratic Gov. Jared Polis, education workers were excluded from last year’s bill.
Senate Bill 111 is sponsored by state Sen. Robert Rodriguez and state Rep. Steven Woodrow, both Denver Democrats. e bill passed the Senate Local Government and Housing Committee on Tuesday with a partisan 4-3 vote.

Many large Colorado school districts voluntarily recognize employee unions and have contracts that include collective bargaining rights, but there is no requirement that they do so. Union members say that leaves many teachers vulnerable.
Mountain Valley School District teacher Kevin Walek, a San Luis Valley teacher union vice president, said teachers worry if they speak out that school district leadership will punish them. Many teachers like him are within their rst few years of teaching and on a probationary period.
e bill would help teachers feel like they can use their voice.
“A lot of teachers just keep their head down,” Walek said. “It’s a tough environment.”
In addition to K-12 and higher education workers, the bill would cover a large group of workers, such as county, city, re, library and public health workers.
e Colorado Education Association and other advocacy groups say the bill grants rights and protections that were skipped over in last year’s collective bargaining bill for many public employees.
Multiple groups want to amend the bill, including the Colorado League of Charter Schools, the Colorado Association of School Executives, and the Colorado Charter School Institute. e committee approved amendments related to unintended consequences the groups identi ed, such as those related to State Board of Education powers and to ensure management positions wouldn’t be included.
Michelle Murphy, Colorado Rural Schools Alliance executive director, said the bill would substantially dis-
rupt schools. e organization also wants to amend the bill.
“ is bill expands employee rights while dialing back and restricting employer rights,” she said.
Opponents include many county and city organizations and governments. Kevin Bommer, Colorado Municipal League executive director, said employers are already required to give employees substantial protections under federal law.
Others also argued there aren’t widespread complaints about improper employer practices. And any such issues can be handled by federal law, they said.
But Kelly said the public ultimately gets hurt when unhappy workers can’t resolve issues quickly with their employers.
“Workers end up leaving or they get to the point where they hate their jobs,” Kelly said. “ at creates an adverse e ect on anyone who uses public services.”
