is week, homeowners across the Denver area will be staring at numbers that may come as a shock: eir property values may have jumped by up to 45% — or even higher.
General Laura Richardson visited Northglenn High School on April 27 to pitch students that the army is a good path forward.
Richardson, a familiar face as a former Norsemen, is the Army’s highest-ranking female, a fourstar general and leader of the U.S. Southern Command. Many of the skills and lessons learned at Northglenn stick with her today.
“To think of my teachers and my swimming coach and the athletic
director that helped shape and mold me when I was in high school, and kept me going in the right direction was huge,” she said.
She touts the many opportunities and perks the military has given to her and said students can take advantage of them, too. Some of those are the 178 di erent jobs to choose from, traveling the world, being part of something bigger than oneself and serving the country.
While at Northglenn High School, she didn’t get exposed to any programs that led to the military, such as JROTC. She became involved after her father introduced her to ROTC while in college.
Introductions are key and sometimes that exposure comes from spreading the word, at a time when the army needs more soldiers.
“We absolutely need more sol-
diers and more people to serve,” Richardson said. Stars and Stripes, a media outlet, reported that Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said recruiting is a top priority of hers and that the army missed their recruiting target by 15,000 people in 2022.
As to why, Richardson looks to the job market. Historically, when there’s a good job market, recruiting goes lower. She also said it’s the lifecycle of service — there are a certain number of retirees that need to be replaced.
She hopes that coming home to Northglenn will help get more Coloradoans enlisted, and hopes teachers and other sta paid attention since the military is always evolving.
“We do ask property owners to take a good look at the notices they receive,” said Denver Assessor Keith Er meyer, urging homeowners to let their local assessor’s o ces know if they dispute the value they receive.
Driven by a costly real-estate market, home values — as calculated for property tax purposes — have spiked since the last time homeowners received notices of value two years ago. Since then, residential properties in the Denver metro area typically saw value increases between 35% and 45%, a group of assessors from across the Front Range announced April 26. For owners selling their homes these days, the bump in home prices has been good news. But it also means owners are on the hook for higher property tax bills, Er meyer noted.
Public o cials are openly hoping homeowners will get relief from the state legislature, where lawmakers are expected to take action to lower property tax bills this year.

It took a jury only a few hours to nd Jeremy Webster guilty of murder and attempted murder for the 2018 road rage shooting that killed 13-year-old Vaughn Bigelow and injured others.
Webster, 27, was convicted April 26 in a deadly 2018 road rage incident that ended with him shooting down a family outside of a dentist’s o ce, killing a 13-year-old boy and wounding that boy’s mother, brother and a witness.
Webster was 23 years old when he was arrested.
Webster pleaded not guilty to murder and attempted murder in the case.
According to the arrest a davit, the incident between Webster and Bigelow and Bigelow’s three sons began on Sheridan Boulevard near Turnpike Drive. e two were involved in some sort of road rage incident and Webster allegedly followed the woman to 5150 80th Ave., the Cedarwood Square O ce Complex. e building is home to medical and dental o ces, insurance agencies and other o ces.
ere, the two got into an argument. Webster pulled out a handgun and shot Bigelow several times, before shooting two of her sons, 8-year-old Asa and 13-year old Vaughn Jr., the a davit says. Her 12-year-old son was able to run away when the shooting began.
According to witnesses, Webster appeared to return to his vehicle, then stopped, walked back to the wounded 13-year-old Vaughn lying on the ground and shot him again.
He then made eye contact with 40-year-old John Gale of Arvada, who was sitting in a truck nearby, the a davit said. Webster began walking toward the truck, ring his
handgun, before Gale was able to reverse his truck and escape the parking lot.
According to the a davit, Webster then got into his black Toyota Corolla and drove away, leaving behind several witnesses.
In addition to allegedly killing 13-year-old Vaughn Bigelow, Webster was convicted of injuring the teen’s mother Meghan Bigelow and younger brother at the time. He allegedly confessed to police that he was struggling with mental health issues after he was arrested.
“Mr. Webster is using insanity as an excuse for the cold-blooded murder of a 13-year-old child for his attempt to kill everyone else on scene. He knew exactly what he was doing and he should be held accountable and be found guilty on all counts which he is charged,” the prosecution said during closing arguments in court.
Webster pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. His lawyers say he su ers from schizoa ective bipolar disorder. But the prosecution said the crime was intentional and deliberate.
“He had a mood disorder that began at a very young age and it progressed, as it does, and eventually he reaches his 20s and he has schizoa ective bipolar disorder,” Webster’s defense attorney said.
He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for rst-degree murder. As well as 48 years each for 6 counts of attempted murder and 32 years for 4 counts of assault. He was also convicted of attempted assault.
In a victim impact statement, Megan Bigelow said the impact of the crime on her family cannot be put into words. She said the verdict does not bring back her son Vaughn and that her surviving son Asa still deals with health impacts from the shooting.
Webster’s attorney says he plans to appeal.

When the Westminster City Council voted April 24 to move ahead with plans for a new water treatment facility, all but one City Councilor agreed – and he brought his friends.
Residents voicing their concern for water rates and the council approving a new water treatment plant accounted for 44 voicemails that were left for Westminster’s city council before their April 24 city council meeting.
But some on the dais said those concerns were misguided.
“Listening to comments tonight from the public, it’s very evident that a lot of folks haven’t been listening for the past 18 months,” said City Manager Mark Freitag.
Freitag said that building a new water treatment is very complex and not only takes a long time to plan and make a decision, but that
work also continues in the future.
“We make sure we maintain a system that meets the community’s needs, at a reasonable cost,” he said.
Council voted 6-1 to nalize the decision to move forward with the plant at the April 24 meeting. Baker, the sole dissenter, said he voted no because the city did not get a second opinion and that the same engineering rm has been used since 2019.
It comes a week after a study session where councilors accused Councilor Baker of misleading residents on water rates and facts about the water treatment plant.
“I know you’re trying to stack the deck next week for our city council meeting, terri c, but I don’t get it,” Mayor Nancy McNally said on April 17. “Four people, at least, said we’re moving and you’re trying to take us back. It’s frustrating.”
City Councilor Rich Seymour said something similar.
“You have embarked on a plan to, in some cases, abuse some of our senior population and scare them. I’ve gotten hysterical phone calls from people yelling at me about
raising their water rates,” said City Councilor Rich Seymour at the April 17 study session.
Councilors voted to reduce water rates in February 2022 but then voted to increase them due to in ation eight months later. ey went on to approve a water treatment plant in January – one that cost $100 million less than originally planned.
In the past, Tom Scribner, water treatment superintendent, said the biggest risk to Westminster’s drinking water has been wild res and algae blooms. e water ows from Loveland Pass to Clear Creek to Farmers Highline Canal and into the lake. e current water treatment plant, Semper, can’t treat those risks.
Baker asked an hour’s worth of questions regarding the new treatment plant during the April 24 meeting, and Senior Engineer Stephanie Bleiker repeated those concerns.
“Flood conditions, wild re conditions, Semper can’t treat for that,” she said.
“Given the fact that Semper is there to treat water, these are all improvements that are called for and
recommended,” she said. at means that water that can’t be treated needs to be drained and can’t be used by Westminster.
Baker also asked questions about how long Semper can last. e estimate is 10 to 20 years, which comes from an outside engineering rm — not city sta . If that’s the timeline, why replace the plant now, he asked.
Bleiker said that running Semper to the point of failure would be very consequential and Westminster would only have ve months’ worth of winter water demand to provide. She compared the situation to bridge repairs — cities don’t wait until a bridge fails to x it.
Bleiker noted that Semper can’t treat water and be rebuilt at the same time. She also said that loadbearing concrete is degrading and knowing the exact time a structure will fail is impossible, which is why it’s estimated that Semper will fail in 10 to 20 years.
“What you are hearing is (what) a structural engineer is recommending,” she said.
Westminster will soon be home to a Lao-Hmong memorial, and according to the Lao-Hmong Foundation, it will be the rst in the nation. “ is memorial serves as a reminder of the sacri ces made by the Lao-Hmong and honors their legacy,” said Yangmee Lor. City Council voted unanimously on the project at the April 24 city council meeting.
“It helps to ensure that all cultural backgrounds are seen and heard and appreciated,” said City Councilor Obi Ezeadi.
e statue will be located in Westminster’s City Park, between the Christopher Fields Softball Complex and City Park Recreation Center. Preliminary designs sketch the memorial to be a T-28 Trojan Warbird airplane that served in the Secret War.
According to the non-pro t Hmong American Center, the Secret War was an operation during the Vietnam War when the CIA trained Hmong soldiers in Laos to ght with U.S. forces during the Vietnam War.
e National Lao-Hmong Memorial Foundation is on the hook for
a di erent estimate.
Approved plant
One of Baker’s questions at the April 24 meeting was whether a different engineering rm would give
“I don’t think that’s likely,” Bleiker said. “ ose recommendations are based on the principles of engineers and speci c guidance for loads for the speci c concrete.”
She said the calculations are not subjective evaluations.
Seymour asked if the rate model-
the design and construction costs.
e City will then own, operate and provide routine maintenance of the memorial with the memorial foundation providing su cient funds for maintenance.
According to the meeting’s agenda, the city has been working with the foundation since 2006 to formalize the agreement, after Colonel Bob Resling contacted the city regarding the proposal.
en, in July 2010, the city council agreed to enter an agreement and a formal signing was scheduled for December later that year. Unfortunately, Colonel Resling died prior to that meeting.
E orts to build the memorial were renewed in 2016 and work to make the statue a reality were
ing included nancing for the treatment plant. Sarah Borgers, interim department director of Westminster’s Public Works and Utilities, said during that process, there was a $200 million placeholder to take nancing into account.
Deputy City Manager Jody Andrews said that the ceiling for rais-
reignited.
Councilors got their rst look at a proposed agreement at the April 17 study session. At that meeting, City Councilor Bruce Baker asked if it contained a reverter clause.
“We cannot tell what happens in the future, but we’ve had numerous examples where political whims change and if that happens in our city, will this be given back to the people donating this memorial for the city?” said Baker.
Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott noted his childhood in Westminster.
“To me this is a big honor, growing up here I’ve known many LaoHmong people I’ve gone to school with,” he said. “I’ve enjoyed a lot of friendships in that community.”
ing rates each year is 4.5%, and that city council sets the rates each year. From the calls, City Councilor Sarah Nurmela heard many concerns about rising costs in Colorado, and hopes to have conversations around keeping people in their homes, pointing to the fact that it’s not only the water rates.
For the rst time, the Northglenn Public Works Department received full accreditation by the American Public Works Association.
“ e purpose of accreditation is to promote excellence in the operation and management of a public works agency, its programs and employees,” a news release reads.
e accreditation solidi es that
the department is in full compliance with the recommended practices set by the Public Works Management Practices Manual. Receiving the status includes ve major steps to demonstrate compliance.
Northglenn is the ninth agency in Colorado to achieve accreditation.
e honor comes as Northglenn is set to host a Public Works Open House on May 23. May 21-27 is Public Works Week. e event will host “food, giveaways, learning and hands-on fun” and is free.
Attendees can learn more about streets, water and wastewater, engineering and environment.
“Once people know about it, unless someone introduces you to this, you may not ever know what a great opportunity lies away out there for many of our young people,” she said.
She said it wasn’t a directive for generals to head back to their hometowns to advertise the opportunities and her presentation was part of her visit home. When she heads back to Miami, she’ll be doing similar events.
e low recruitment numbers also come as foreign tensions rise, such as the Russia-Ukraine War. But those issues aren’t pushing the army to give more attention to recruiting, she said.
“ is is nothing new. It’s not new for our country to face challenges we have had over centuries,” she said.
Richardson also emphasized that the United States is proud of its democracy. Many of the foreign tensions are with communist countries.
“(Communist countries) don’t
Congress passed a bill that stopped short of requiring women to be in the draft. Back then, she said “ at’s a decision by our country.”

is year could be the last of unlimited fundraising and spending by candidates in municipal elections if a bill approved last week by the House also passes the Senate and is signed into law by Gov. Jared Polis. House Bill 1245 would limit individual donations to municipal candidates to $400, while small-donor committees would be able give up to $4,000. e measure originally limited contributions to $250 and $2,500 and banned political parties from contributing directly to candidates in municipal elections, which are supposed to be nonpartisan, but was amended to increase the amounts and removed that prohibition. e limits in the latest version of the bill are close to what statehouse candidates may accept — their maximum went up to $450 this year because of in ation. But they are considerably lower than the $2,500 maximum school board members may accept from individual donors and political parties under a bill passed last year.
“ is bill will go a long way in ensuring that wealthy donors, special interests and everyday people all have the same level of in uence on municipal elections,” said Rep. Jenny Willford, a Northglenn Democrat
and lead sponsor of the bill. House Bill 1245 would apply to any city that isn’t a home-rule municipality with donation limits already in law, according to Rep. Jennifer Parenti, an Erie Democrat and another lead sponsor of the bill. A home-rule city with higher campaign donation limits in lawwouldn’t have to lower their amounts if the bill passes.
For instance, two of Colorado’s biggest home-rule cities, Denver and Aurora, already have such rules. In Denver this year, candidates may accept up to $500 from an individual if they participate in the city’s Fair Elections Fund that matches small
contributions and $1,000 if they don’t. In Aurora, at-large council and mayoral candidates may accept up to $1,000 per donor, although council candidates running to represent individual wards may only take $400.
e new municipal limits, if approved by the legislature, would be quite a change for some cities.
A woman puts a ballot in a drop o box
Colorado Springs, for instance, has no campaign donation limits for municipal races. Some mayoral candidates in the city this year received donations in the tens — or even hundreds — of thousands of dollars from individuals or political action committees.
One example: Colorado Springs
Forward PAC donated $250,000 to City Councilman Wayne Williams’ campaign in February.
e bill also requires more transparency around municipal campaign nance reports by setting new reporting deadlines in state law and mandating that lings be open to public inspection. Candidates and clerks in municipalities with populations of fewer than 10,000 would have fewer requirements.
e city of Colorado Springs, the Colorado Municipal League and the Associated Governments of Northwest Colorado are lobbying against
the bill.
“ is bill wasn’t written with input from municipal clerks and, as a result, it places additional and unnecessary burdens on small town clerks, many of whom are already overburdened as is,” said Heather Stau er, legislative advocacy manager for the Colorado Municipal League.
Willford said she amended the bill in the House to try to address the Colorado Municipal League’s concerns.
Colorado Common Cause and the League of Women Voters of Colorado are lobbying in support of the measure.
e bill passed the House last Tuesday on a 48-12, mostly partyline vote with ve representatives excused. It hasn’t been scheduled for a committee hearing in the Senate yet.
e lead sponsors of the bill in the Senate are Democratic Sens. Kevin Priola and Robert Rodriguez. If the legislation passes, it would take effect on Jan. 1, 2024.

It’s a fraught equation, though, because local governments depend on property tax revenue, and too much adjustment could threaten cuts to their services.
Property taxes partly fund county governments, but they also fund school districts, re and library districts, and other local entities.
Toby Damisch, who heads Douglas County’s property tax o ce, emphasized the urgent nature of the situation for homeowners and a ordability.
“If the state lawmakers don’t act immediately on this, then it will be a crisis, in my opinion,” Damisch, the Douglas County assessor, told reporters.
Across Colorado, property values have risen signi cantly, Damisch said. In notably a uent Douglas County, residential properties saw increases between 30% and 60%, with a median of 47%.
Other metro-area counties have seen high spikes as well:
• In Denver, the median increase in single-family home property values is 33%, Er meyer said.
• In Je erson County, median single-family residential values increased by 37%, the county said in a news release.
• Arapahoe County’s assessor, PK Kaiser, announced the county will see almost a 42% increase in residential values.
• Broom eld saw a median value increase for single-family residential of 41%, according to Broom eld County’s assessor.
How does that all stack up with property value jumps in recent years?
Er meyer recalls talking about median increases that were “largely in the 20s” in Denver in 2015, 2017
and 2019.
“Douglas County, we had 30% increases in the 1997 reappraisal as well as the 1999 appraisal. at felt monumental at the time,” Damisch said. “What we’re looking at this year is that’s at the low end.”
Apartment renters a ected
While property tax discussions often focus on homeowners, the spike in values could also a ect renters in apartments — sometimes called “multifamily” buildings — though it’s unclear by how much.
Asked whether apartment landlords will raise rent because of increases in property tax bills, Damisch said they may try, “but they can only do what the market allows.”
“And taxes is just one of their cost streams,” Damisch said, adding that landlords have seen increased labor and insurance costs as well.
Er meyer noted: “We’ve seen some historic increases in multifamily in the past that haven’t been met with immediate rent spikes.”
e median total property value change for apartment buildings is 20% in Je erson County, according to a news release.
In Douglas County, the median increase in multifamily property values is 25%, Damisch said.
Growing pains
In an expensive real-estate market, it seems like new property developments pop up constantly around metro Denver.
A common concern from existing residents is that new developments will cause their property values to drop. But market forces keeping property values high can also elicit fears of high property tax bills.
Asked about the tension between those two concerns, Damisch acknowledged it’s a di cult question.
“Growth has always been, in Douglas County, one of the hottest topics. We’ve had thousands of people moving in for a few decades,”
Damisch said. “Once they get here — myself included — they don’t like the growth.”
Er meyer pointed to the shortage of housing in general around the state.
“I don’t think you could disconnect what we’re talking about today from that particular fact,” Er meyer said. “ at’s one of many, many things that contribute to property (values).”
Lawmakers may step in
It’s the job of county assessors’ o ces to establish accurate values of homes and other properties to determine how much property owners will owe government entities in taxes — a process meant to ensure that the amount of taxes people pay is fair and equitable.
( e assessor doesn’t set the tax rate but determines the value of the property that the tax rate then gets applied to. Local government entities like counties and school districts set the tax rates. Property tax rates are o cially called “mill levies.”) e law requires the assessors to value properties every two years. e property valuation homeowners will soon receive is based on June 2022 data, near the recent peak in the realestate market.
So even though home prices have declined since then, property values re ect last year’s exceptional highs.
Also at play is a number called the “assessment rate,” another factor that helps determine how much in property taxes a person owes. e state legislature sets the assessment rate.
JoAnn Gro , Colorado property tax administrator, said she “can pretty well guarantee” that the property tax information homeowners receive next week won’t be accurate.
“It’s because your legislature isn’t immune to what’s going on right now,” Gro said. “ ere’ve been lots of discussions … about providing some additional property value adjustment.”
“I truly expect to see some
adjustments and some relief in 2023,” she added.
She also advised the public “to watch every one of your taxing jurisdictions that’s going to have conversations about setting their mill levy.”
Colorado ranks lower
Despite the public concerns over property taxes, Gro noted that “we still have one of the lowest obligations of property taxes of any state.”
Nationally, Colorado has relatively low residential property taxes, according to an analysis by the conservative Tax Foundation. Colorado ranked 47th in property taxes paid as a percentage of owner-occupied housing value in 2020, according to the foundation.
And while businesses pay more, their taxes still appear to be lower than the national average, according to the Colorado Sun. Colorado had the 17th best “State Business Tax Climate” for 2020, according to the Tax Foundation. Colorado had the 14th best “property tax rank” for businesses in 2020, according to the foundation.

Th ese past few weeks have been brutal with regard to the violence, tragedy and extinguishing lives of especially the young people who have been victims of gun violence. With every new shooting so many of us ask “when will this
We have been hopeful. We have prayed and asked for direction. We have supported needed legislation to do a variety of things including banning assault weapons and establishing red ag laws. We have walked in protests and lobbied for change. Some change has taken place both at the state and national level. But it always falls short of what is needed as more and more shootings take place.
Each year sets new records for mass shootings and the total number of casualties and injuries. Even if Congress did enact all of the
Truth or emotion?
Applauding the Westminster Window’s Mission, Vision, and Integrity I would like to make a suggestion to better achieve those goals. While you have accurately reported on the raw emotion and harsh words spoken at Westminster City Council meetings, both during citizen comment time and by council members to each other, I have not seen any reporting on the validity of any accusations. I’m not talking about the validity of opinions because opinions cannot be held to a truth test, but facts in accusations can, most times, be proved true or false.
For example, take my accusation that a lie was told by the City of Westminster in 2018, made through City sta , as reported by this newspaper, claiming that ows in the Big Dry Creek Sewer Interceptor had increased by 40% over the previous 10 years. is claim
attempted gun restrictions, I do not think it would resolve the fundamental problem.
We acknowledge the premise that mass shootings cannot be solved with any single solution. Plus, front and center there is always the mantra of the Second Amendment being cited whenever there are attempts to make change for the better. Personally, I cannot think of any law, Constitutional Amendment or Bible verse more misinterpreted than the Second Amendment regarding the right to bear arms.
The new American norm
It seems the whole gun crisis in America is continuing to escalate while at the same time our nation is more divided over gun control than ever before. Where is hope? What is our future reality going to be like? Now, we have teenagers and young 20-somethings going to the wrong address, driving up the wrong driveway in an unfamiliar part of town or young cheerleaders getting in the wrong car and all of them are getting shot. It is not
served as the reason City Council placed a moratorium on building in a majority portion of Westminster and then was used as a reason to raise the water rates that ended with landscape water at $8.15 or $12.88 per kgal. Fact checking is both straightforward and easy. e validation of truth or falsehood of the 40% increase is held in the city published ACFR documents.
In the most recent incident of harsh words reported by this paper (April 27, 2023), it was reported that I was of accused of lying and not following protocol. While that was accurate reporting, I do not consider merely repeating those accusation to be good journalism. Good journalism would require inclusion of the validity of those accusations? You still can do that. I think the Public would be most interested to know if the accusations were based in truth or in emotion.

solely a racial issue.
Americans have become such ardent gun bearers, it is scary. You never know if someone is going to pull out a gun and do who-knowswhat. Local police are hesitant to pull over speeders for fear of getting shot by the driver who has a rearm at his side. More and more youth have access to rearms with gangs “packing heat” to guard their territory or take on another gang or individual who got cross ways with them.
Drugs are playing a larger and larger role in shootings. How often do you hear on the news about a drug deal going wrong and a shooting has left one or more victims.
Mental health is at the core of some of the shootings and mass murders. How in the world do we resolve that issue on a national basis? When will it end? How can it end? Who can get it to end? More and more, it seems that gun violence has become “the American way” or the “new normal.”
Hope to resolve gun violence is gone I hate to say it, but I have lost

Zoning is authoritarian
Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott said, “ e idea of someone at the State Capitol deciding what we’re going to build, how we’re going to build it, and where we’re going to build it is dangerous.” (See Westminster in strong opposition to Land Use bill, Westminster Window, 04/13/23). I agree. However, equally dangerous is someone at City Hall deciding what we’re going to build, how we’re going to build it, and where we’re going to build it.
Only the landowner should decide what to build on their land, how to build it, and where to build it. It’s their land, and they should have full control over it. e State, the County, the City, and busybody neighbors should butt out because it’s not their land.
Zoning should be abandoned

hope regarding the American people and its leaders solving the horrendous gun problem we have. It has become a disease.
It seems too many Americans are blind to the growing trend of gun violence or have become numb to the outcome of so many guns being in the possession of Americans.
For the longest time, I truly believed there was a solution. Although I knew it was a complex, multi-faceted set of solutions which would take years if not decades to resolve, I no longer believe such an approach is realistic. Too many people have too many guns. Too many people are mentally unstable. ere is too much racism and hate. Too many young people have grown up around guns and now they possess and will use guns to harm or kill people. ere is too much drug use and drug dealing which inevitably involves guns. Too many citizens believe that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gives them to have whatever kind of gun they want and as many
SEE CHRISTOPHER, P13altogether because it violates landowners’ property rights, and it’s the leading cause of the housing crisis. e government has no legitimate role in land use decisions over privately-owned land whatsoever.
So, if zoning is abandoned altogether and landowners’ property rights are respected, how does one keep an industrial park, a re nery, or a skyscraper from being built next door to homes? Contracts. Landowners are free to enter into contracts with willing neighboring landowners. Sometimes these contracts are covenants or homeowners associations.
Instead of dictating land use from above via authoritarian zoning laws, civilized free societies determine land use by peacefully and voluntarily entering into land use contracts for mutual bene t.

as they want.
No level of government can solve this problem. No set of churches can convince people to lay down their guns. e problem has exploded to such a magnitude that gun mentality for lack of a better term exceeds any power on Earth to control it.
I am dismayed when I publicly state my opinion, but I like to think that I am a realist. e recent “incidents” involving younger people getting shot by adults was the last straw.
Last week I picked up our Denver Post which displayed a front page headline of “ Panel votes to end ban proposal .” e article was referring to proposed legislation being considered in the Colorado House of Representatives to ban the purchase or sale of assault weapons in our state. It died in committee.
House Bill 23-1230 was killed by three Democrats joining Republican committee members to vote no. Governor Polis let it be known his opposition to banning assault weapons and that may have played into the three Democrats voting against the bill.
So, you see what I mean: ere is no level of government in America today that can pass legislation to ban guns. Even if passed, the prohibition would be eliminated in the judicial system.
e only question which remains is “how much will the American public tolerate” before taking control of the situation?
Each spring, every Colorado municipality and county faces tackling repairs to streets, bridges and concrete curb, gutter and sidewalks. It simply is a “given” based on the winter weather with the freeze/thaw impact on asphalt and concrete plus wear and tear over the years.
CDOT has the same set of challenges on the state and federal highway system throughout the entire state.
In the case of Westminster,
city council has approved over $11.5 million for this year’s street, bridge and concrete repair and replacement program. As I have described in the past, the city uses a computerized system to rank order the worse pavement sections throughout the city each year to develop the patching and re-paving priorities.
As expected, this year’s plan is being impacted by in ation. In the case of asphalt paving project, prices have gone up an average of 15% from 2022.
Sta was able to secure 41 lane miles of paving for a 10.6% increase in cost. e work includes initial milling work of removing 1.5” to 2.5” of existing pavement before installing the new asphalt overlay.
Chip sealing is another component of street maintenance to extend the life of the pavement and seal out moisture. is year’s program ($724,836) bears an 8.4% increase from last year with metro area costs ranging from 9.4%-22%.
Concrete curb, gutter and sidewalk replacement work ($2,733,441) will be done on priority scored locations throughout the city.
While $2.7 million is a huge amount of money, be mindful that the city has 750 miles of curb, gutter and sidewalks to maintain. Also, the amount of asphalt repaving work approved is less than what would be ideal to keep up with deteriorating infrastructure. New water treatment plant moves ahead
One of the most contentious and expensive issues the newly elected city council inherited in November, 2021was what to do about a new water treatment plant and the appurtenances which go below the ground. Don Tripp and sta had pushed ahead Water 2025 to the point that the location had been selected (condemnation of the site had been underway) and engineering/construction plans were at 30% completion.
e new council called a time out on the condemnation and construction plans to direct sta to look at options for the needed plant. After more than a year of study, analysis, cost estimating and sizing the plant involving di erent sites, the council was faced with a key decision on the

condemnation. Moving forward on the condemnation to nalize it was their decision.
In my opinion, they had little choice but to complete the acquisition. Implied in that action was the assumption that the council had selected the “Kearney site”, but some didn’t think so. So, last week on a 6-1 vote (Baker opposing), the council formally approved the site and authorized contracts to move forward on the plant’s design.
Vocal opposition
e decision was not without ardent opposition. Approximately 75 minutes of voice messages with the bulk of them against the “Kearney site” were played at the council meeting. Also, some of the audience at the meeting spoke against this site in blatant terms.
e inherit cost of a new plant at the site in question was a major objection versus using the existing
Semper Water Treatment Plant. Do I think the whole process could have been handled better? Most de nitely. Was the new council’s hands tied on the condemnation action already well along? Most de nitely.
Could the city be totally assured if some recon guration on the Semper Plant was accomplished that it would last more than 20 years? No. I really believe that the “new” council was handed lemons and they did their best in turning them into lemonade.
Will the water plant decision be a hot topic in the campaign leading up to the November council election? It already is and will continue to be.

At e Alley in downtown Littleton, you might nd a musician who’s so into the music, they’ll get up and dance on the bar.
When a local band surprises the crowd with a stellar performance that no one saw coming, “it just knocks people’s socks o ,” said Mary Riecks, e Alley’s bar manager and a Littleton-area native.
e watering hole on Main Street doubles as a music venue that nds and helps grow local talent — and the shows are free. It’s one of the bars in the metro Denver suburbs that o ers a window into up-and-coming homegrown performers amid a music scene that one longtime bar owner says is growing.
“Twenty years ago when I opened up the bar, there were a few bars around that had live music,” said Doug Jacobsen, owner of Jake’s Roadhouse in Arvada.
Since then, he’s noticed that “all of these di erent bars” now o er space for shows, said Jacobsen, who has friends who perform at spots around metro Denver.
“ ere’s a lot of great musicians here,” Jacobsen said.
Here’s a look at places o the beaten path where you can catch some lesser known — and sometimes famous — music artists in person.
‘Something for everyone’ Wild Goose Saloon in Parker
o ers a bit of a di erent environment: It’s a bar but also a large event venue.
It aims to be “Colorado’s version of the Knitting Factory” — a unique, independent venue that hosts local and national artists, said Chris Dellinger, who serves as co-owner of Wild Goose Saloon with his wife.
ey’re both longtime musicians themselves — they perform in a band called Lola Black, garnered play on the radio and toured around the country — and have played Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre several times, Dellinger said.
ey take their knowledge of the industry to running the Wild Goose, which was built around the concept of serving as a music venue and has a bigger stage,
sound and lighting setup than most bars do, Dellinger said.
It’s “kind of like every musician’s dream to own their own venue at some place and time, and we just ended up being able to pull it o ,” said Dellinger, who lives in Aurora.
After opening in July 2021, Wild Goose has hosted some large country artists and “some `80s artists that are still big,” Dellinger said. National pop-rock act American Authors is set to play there in late April.
“My motto always is, ‘If you don’t like the music one night, that’s OK — it’ll be completely di erent the next night or the next week,’” Dellinger said. “So we really try to have something for everyone here.”
His venue tries to get exposure for local talent by letting them open for national touring acts. For the audience, the typical admission cost for a national artist’s show at Wild Goose sits around $25 to $30, but local artists’ ticketed shows can cost as low as $10, and most of the local artists’ shows are free.
Dellinger and his wife have
“snuck in” a performance or two at Wild Goose, he said — they were set to play there in late April with the Texas Hippie Coalition, an American heavy metal band. Keeping classics alive
You might also see Jacobsen, a guitarist himself, playing with a band at Jake’s Roadhouse in the north metro area every now and then.
His bar started o ering live music “right away” after opening near the end of 2003. Sitting in east Arvada close to Denver and Westminster, the venue o ers mostly cover bands and blues, and on Wednesday nights, bluegrass is on tap. Sometimes, artists play original songs, but it’s rare, Jacobsen said.
“Our people come in to hang out, and most original bands don’t have four hours’ worth of original music,” Jacobsen said.
But playing covers at Jake’s Roadhouse is one way to get a new artist’s foot in the door in the local music scene.
“We have bands that come to us all the time that can’t get these other bars to give them a chance to play because they haven’t played anywhere before,” Jacobsen said. He added: “We’re not like that. I know a lot of musicians around town, and we will give a band a chance to play just on the word of a friend.”
He feels that live music is im-

portant to promote — “especially nowadays.”
“I’m 68 years old, so I grew up with really a lot of good rock and roll from the `60s and `70s, and I think it’s important to keep that alive,” he said.
And there’s no ticket cost to watch the live music at Jake’s Roadhouse.
New talent in Littleton Music is always free to watch, too, at e Alley in Littleton on the southwest side of the Denver
suburbs.
e bar had its grand opening near the start of 2017 and has always featured live music, said Riecks, the bar manager.
“ ere were not that many places on Main Street here in downtown Littleton that featured live music other than karaoke or a DJ on the weekends, at least not regularly,” Riecks said. “If you did catch a live band, it was maybe one day a week.”
e Alley came in and established a consistent place for live music, leaning toward classic rock but offering a variety of genres including blues, jazz, folk and bluegrass. Most of the acts that Riecks books are
local. And among the original artists, performances typically include about 25% original songs and 75% covers, she said — catering to the crowds.
e small main-street outlet is still an ideal place where you can catch new talent: Some nights of the week are centered around new artists.
“If you come play my open mic night and the open mic host thinks you have some serious potential, they’ll send them to me,” and then the artist may be featured in “new talent ursday,” Riecks said. After that, Riecks may o er an artist a weekend spot — a paid opportunity to play from 8 to 11 p.m.
“So there’s kind of a ladder,” Riecks said.
Some well-known artists have played at e Alley, including Sean Kelly of e Samples, “which was a huge band in the `90s,” said Riecks, who added that she receives at least 40 to 50 emails a month from local artists and national touring acts.
A large part of e Alley’s crowd on any given night comes for the live music, Riecks said.
People can get a typical bar experience at many other places, she noted.
“But if they want to have a great craft-made cocktail and see some local talent,” Riecks said, “this is the place to do it in Littleton.”
All sales of gas-powered home lawn mowers, trimmers and leaf blowers would be banned in metro Denver beginning in 2025 to attack severe ozone pollution, according to draft policies circulating at the Regional Air Quality Council and targeted for a vote by statewide authorities later this year.
e most likely proposals would also ban summer use of existing gas-powered lawn equipment by big institutional users such as schools or parks and maintenance crews beginning in 2025, and by commercial users a year after that.
Emissions from gas-powered lawn equipment make up a surprisingly high portion of chemicals that bake into summer ozone under Colorado’s hot sun. California already has a sales ban, beginning in 2024.

electric gear, but a full sales ban and summer-use ban is a big trial balloon the RAQC is oating in early working group drafts.
e RAQC said no formal vote will be taken until later in the spring, but draft policies are circulating in a working group, and the agency presented outlines of the idea in this month’s Air Quality Control Commission meeting. An even more rigorous option under consideration would begin the bans in 2024.
Colorado’s northern Front Range counties are in severe violation of EPA limits on lung-choking ozone, and the state needs to adopt policies that can make real cuts to measured ozone by at least 2026, when EPA demands for change get tougher, RAQC Executive Director Mike Silverstein said.

Be BBQ ready this summer with Backyard Pitmasters
We’re entering prime BBQ season, but many people (myself included) don’t know much about the delicious, delicious art of barbecuing.
sions from the oil and gas industry, the trucking industry and other high-polluting sectors, he noted. “And it makes sense to focus on another large category of emissions like the lawn and garden equipment.”
e EPA in 2008 set ozone health limits of 75 parts per billion, then revised it further downward in 2015 to 70 parts per billion. State planners have said lawn and garden equipment contributes 2.5 parts per billion to that total on an average day. It may seem small, but compared to the other slices of the total that Colorado has the power to control, lawn and garden equipment is a tantalizing target.
Colorado’s ozone was trending downward for a while as cars got cleaner, coal- red power plants were retired and other rules took e ect. But in recent years, many metro area monitors are spiking into the 80s. en, just as the Air Quality Control Commission was about to nalize two EPA-required State Implementation Plans for both the 2008 and 2015 ozone standards, state regulators found they’d been calculating oil and gas contributions wrong. ey had underestimated how much ozone-causing emissions come from drilling operations, so

that every drilling permit issued in the late 2020s would weaken Colorado’s pledges in the implementation plans. e plans are a commitment to the EPA on how and when Colorado will come into compliance.
e commission put o nal approval of one of the plans until late 2023, when sta could propose new ozone-cutting policies to stu into the document. Silverstein and other Regional Air Quality Council leaders want action on lawn and garden equipment to be part of those late 2023 commission votes.
Lawn and garden equipment makes up 84% of small, o -road engines being run across the U.S., the regional council said. Another favored statistic: One hour of running a high-polluting gas leaf blower produces emissions equal to driving a gas car 1,100 miles, or to Denver from Los Angeles.
Lawn and garden equipment may also be an appealing target because there is little organized opposition, compared to the powerful oil and gas trade associations, or chambers of commerce who oppose restrictions on commuters’ driving. e RAQC said it has been working on outreach to equipment manufacturers or any trade groups for landscape maintenance, but has not had much success.
Environmental groups that have been pushing the state air quality commission for a faster crackdown on ozone emissions are supportive.

“We want to live in a world where mowing your lawn, or maintaining your landscape, doesn’t mean spewing a bunch of harmful pollution into the air, or for that matter, driving your neighbors crazy with earsplitting noise,” said Kirsten Schatz of CoPIRG, which has been involved in the working group on the issue at the RAQC.
CoPIRG organized a media event in 2022 featuring clean electric lawn equipment at comparable prices to gas-powered equipment, even before available rebates. ey also highlighted a small local contractor who is using all-electric equipment who had rigged battery-recharging solar panels on his truck roof.
Electric prices are competitive with gas equipment except in the largest commercial ride-on categories, Schatz said. e current drafts of the proposed bans do not bar sales or use of the larger ride-on vehicles in the initial stages.
A little-known fact of the billions in federal aid for electric vehicle tax credits, Schatz added, is that they can be used to lower the price of ride-on electric lawn tractors as well.
Actual prices to the consumer will get better and better, clean air advocates say. e Colorado legislature is working on a bill providing a 30% rebate at the cash register, statewide, on electric lawn equipment.
However tough the nal recommendations turn out to be, Silverstein said, everyone in the working
group wants to be clear that they’re avoiding a hit to mom and pop operators or the average homeowner.
“We’re de nitely not trying to target the high school kid that’s mowing lawns to get some spending cash,” Silverstein said. Besides, he said, the real savings in emissions comes from a changeover among the equipment operators who are using the machines all day, every day. e regional council is also looking for federal or state money that could expand the vouchers for individual lawn and garden equipment buyers to small businesses in landscaping. at kind of support could take millions of dollars, Silverstein acknowledged.
e urgency to act in Colorado is building, he added. At the April meeting, air quality commissioners asked the RAQC for speci c ideas it was serious about putting in the State Implementation Plans for a late 2023 vote.
“If we’re going to make a real difference quickly,” Silverstein said, “we’ve got to have a rapid transition to electric.”

WESTMINSTER - e Class 5A No. 9 ranked Legacy girls soccer team came up short in its quest for the Front Range League South title ursday.

Coloradans can now submit comments on Xcel Energy’s proposal to increase base rates for electricity.
Bill Levis, an AARP Colorado volunteer and former director of the Colorado O ce of Consumer Counsel, charged with protecting consumers, said Xcel has maintained robust pro ts while hiking utility bills year after year, a practice he calls “pancaking,” which stacks costs onto customers.
He argued many Coloradans trying to get by on Social Security cannot a ord additional rate increases.
“And this is a huge impact on them,” Levis pointed out. “We have found that utilities can take up between 10% and 30% of the income of seniors. And that’s really hard to take.”
Xcel has reported the cost of electricity increased by just under 5% from the last quarter of 2022, and their new proposal before the Colorado Public Utilities Commission would raise base rates by 8.2%. People can comment on the proposal by calling 303-869-3490, online at puc.colorado.gov, and at public hearings scheduled for May 31 and July 11.
Xcel is also asking the Public Utilities Commission to bump up its authorized pro ts to just over 10%. Last year Xcel posted more than $8.3 billion in gross pro ts.
Public Service, the regulated utility with a mission to provide energy to consumers at the lowest cost possible, is a subsidiary of Xcel, a forpro t company. Levis contended it is where the con ict comes in.
“Because the goal of for-pro t
companies is to maximize shareholder value,” Levis explained. “But there are times when even for-pro t companies have to bite the bullet and absorb some of the costs.”
Xcel has argued rate increases are necessary to transition to clean energy. But Levis countered the company is passing costs along to consumers and refuses to put any skin in the game.
He noted when telephone utilities upgraded their copper networks to ber optics, they took on part of the costs. e Public Utilities Commission will conduct public and evidentiary hearings before deciding whether Xcel should be granted a fth rate increase in as many years. A decision is expected in September.

NOTICE OF DEFAULT AND FORECLOSURE SALE
WHEREAS, on October 24, 2012, a certain Deed of Trust was executed by Lucille P. Ortega, as Grantor, in favor of New Day Financial, LLC, and the Public Trustee of Adams County, Colorado
as Trustee, and was recorded on November 15, 2012, at Reception Number 2012000087024, in the office of the Clerk and Recorder of the County of Adams, Colorado; and
WHEREAS, the Deed of Trust was insured by the United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (the Secretary) pursuant to the National Housing Act for the purpose of providing single family housing; and
WHEREAS, the beneficial interest of the Deed of Trust is now owned by the Secretary, pursuant to an assignment recorded on October 15, 2019 at Reception Number 2019000088380 in the office of the Clerk and Recorder of the County of Adams Colorado.
WHEREAS, a default has been made in the covenants and conditions of the Deed of Trust in that Paragraph 9 (a) (i) has been violated; and
WHEREAS, the entire amount delinquent is $203,867.58 as of March 7, 2023; and
WHEREAS, by virtue of this default, the Secretary has declared the entire amount of the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust to be immediately due and payable;
NOW THEREFORE, pursuant to the powers vested in me by the Single Family Mortgage Foreclosure Act of 1994, 12 U.S.C. 3751 et seq., by 24 CFR part 27, subpart B, and by the Secretary’s designation of me as Foreclosure Commissioner, recorded on April 2, 2018 at Reception No. 2018000026482 in the records of the Adams County Clerk and Recorder, notice is hereby given that on May 25, 2023, at 11:30 a.m. local time, all real and personal property at or used in connection with the following described premises (“Property”) will be sold at public auction to the highest bidder:
ALL THE FOLLOWING DESCRIBED LOT OR PARCEL OF LAND, SITUATE, LYING AND BEING IN THE SAID COUNTY OF ADAMS AND STATE OF COLORADO, TO WIT: LOT 1, BLOCK 16, YORK HIGHLANDS FILING NUMBER TWO, COUNTY OF ADAMS, STATE OF COLORADO.
BEING THE SAME PREMISES THAT WAS CONVEYED UNTO LOUIE ORTEGA, JR. (NOW DECEASED, CERTIFICATE ID 004430724, DATED JANUARY 11TH, 2011 IN THE STATE OF COLORADO) AND LUCILLE P. ORTEGA BY QUITCLAIM DEED FROM JEFFERY B. GREGORY AND CAROL A. GREGORY, DATED AUGUST 22nd, 1983, AND RECORDED AUGUST 24TH, 1983 AT DEED BOOK 2782 AND DEED PAGE 569 IN THE RECORDS OF THE ADAMS COUNTY RECORDER’S OFFICE, STATE OF COLORADO.
Commonly known as: 2390 East 98th Avenue, Thornton, CO 80229.
The sale will be held in front of the Adams County Combined Court located at 1100 Judicial Center Dr, Brighton, CO 80601.
The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid the lesser amount of the loan balance, or the appraised value obtained by the Secretary prior to sale.
There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorated share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale.
When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling 10% of the Secretary’s bid in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not accompany each oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of 10% of the Secretary’s bid must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveying fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery date of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them.
The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extension will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due.
If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit, or at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder.
There is no right of redemption, or right of pos-
session based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein, HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant.
The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner no less than three (3) days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified cashier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before the public auction of the property is completed.
The amount that must be paid if the mortgage is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled sale is $203,867.58 as of March 7, 2023, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the deed of trust had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out of pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement.
Tender of payment by certified or cashier’s check or application for cancellation of the foreclosure sale shall be submitted to the address of the Foreclosure Commissioner provided below.

An increasing number of clinics and hospitals in Colorado are trying to address the social issues that affect their patients’ health — lack of warm clothes and school supplies, food scarcity and unsafe housing.
The problem is, the state’s Medicaid insurance program does not reimburse for that work.
This could change, though, as state lawmakers approved a plan Wednesday that could lead to a $12 million-$14 million annual program to fund the community health work that bolsters traditional medical care.
The work — linking patients to housing assistance, food pantries, nonprofits that provide school supplies and attorneys who fight unsafe housing conditions — is covered in 15 other states. The bipartisan legislation, now headed to the governor’s desk, directs the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing to seek federal approval for its plan, which could see its first reimbursements in 2025.
The Colorado plan is based on reimbursing community health work at $39.34 per hour, which is the rate in Nevada and South Dakota. The state and federal government would split the cost of the new benefit.
Colorado now has about 170 community health workers. State officials estimate that number would grow to about 330 workers by 2026, after Medicaid begins reimbursing for the work and more health clinics hire wellness workers. The proposed law defines a community health worker as a frontline public health

The petition requests that the name of Amber Whitney Skaff be changed to Amber Whitney Kelly
worker who is a liaison to medical, dental or mental health care, or community programs that “combat social determinants of health.”
Children’s Hospital Colorado, for example, opened a social wellness center, including a food pantry filled with fresh vegetables and meat, in its child health pavilion three years ago. The program, called Resource Connect, helps patients sign up for food assistance or Medicaid, and connect with nonprofits that provide school backpacks, formula and diapers, or mortgage or rental assistance.
Patients are referred to the center based on their answers to questionnaires given during medical appointments. “In the last 12 months, did you ever worry that your food would run out before you had money to buy more?” they ask.
Since Medicaid does not reimburse for the work, the program has relied on grants, donations and operational funds from the hospital. Under the new plan, Medicaid would reimburse hospitals and clinics for the social wellness work, but not for the costs of food, some of which is grown in the hospital’s garden.
The push for new funding in Colorado is a recognition that people’s health is affected mainly by what happens outside of a medical appointment. A pediatrician can provide vaccinations and give advice about a healthy diet, but that doesn’t matter as much as the fact that a child might live in a house with mold or a family that can’t afford healthy food.
Public health experts hope that it’s one day financially feasible for even small doctors’ offices to have a com-

The Colorado Cancer Screening Program, within the University of Colorado Cancer Center, learned years ago that patient navigators could make a huge impact in getting medically underserved people to screening appointments. The no-show rate at one safety net clinic dropped to 10% from 75% in one year after navigators began working with patients in their native languages, and offering to pay for transportation to screenings, prescriptions or child care. Prior to the extra help, Medicaid patients were not showing up for appointments or showing up without following the instructions, including fasting or taking the bowel-preparation medicine before a colonoscopy.
Andi Dwyer, director of patient navigation at the screening program, called this year’s legislation a “gamechanger.”
“If this was a pill or device, we would have probably seen payment for this 10 years ago,” she said.
Salud Family Health Centers, a nonprofit that has 13 clinics in Colorado that provide medical, dental and mental health services, has wanted Medicaid to reimburse for community health work for at least 10 years. Salud focuses on lowincome and medically underserved people, including migrant and seasonal farm workers, and employs a few “care managers” who work with patients who require the most hospitalizations.
Medicaid funding would allow Salud to hire more care managers to help a broader group of patients, said Jen Morse, Salud’s vice president of development. Finally, health
care policy is catching up with research that shows how health outcomes are improved when providers can address “all these additional stressors in their life that really affect health care,” she said.
“The fact that this bill is even getting some feet under it shows that there is some recognition at a policy level,” she said.
Dr. Hans Elzinga, a family medicine physician at Salud’s Longmont clinic, said it’s “a stereotype in medicine that Medicaid patients are going to be more likely to no-show.” In the past decade, though, health providers have realized that if they can identify patients’ barriers to care, and help them overcome them, they will show up. “We need to identify why those things aren’t happening and then make it possible,” he said. Elzinga works with Tania Maldonado, a patient navigator who speaks English and Spanish. In some cases, she said, patients don’t need assistance getting to an appointment, they just need better communication. She has had patients who only spoke Spanish and were having their young children try to interpret and explain medical directions, she said.
The legislation requires the state Medicaid division to begin covering community health work as soon as the state receives approval from the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
