Uplands hosts first quarterly construction meeting Grading under way on large Westminster development BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Uplands representatives hosted the first of planned quarterly construction updates about its Westminster development. The Nov. 16 meeting at Crown Pointe Academy was lightly attended, but residents who came had plenty of concerns and questions for developers and city staff. The Uplands is the name of a planned development on a large vacant parcel that was historically a working farm. In all, 2,350 homes are planned on 234 acres. While developers hosted a groundbreaking in September, construction on the first housing units isn’t expected until 2025. Meanwhile, there’s plenty of work

to do. Grading and erosion control work has begun, and infrastructure construction is expected to begin this winter on Parcel A, which runs along Lowell Boulevard between 84th and 88th avenues. In the coming 18 to 24 months, the developer also plans extensive roadwork they say will significantly improve the flow of traffic in the area. That started with shutting down a short cut-through street. The .2-mile portion of Shaw Boulevard connected 84th Avenue to Lowell Boulevard. Neighbor concerns

Neighbors have protested the development proposal for years — citing concerns ranging from incompatibility with the existing neighborhood, added traffic, potential flooding and other issues — and some of them were in attendance at the Nov. 16 meeting. “Westminster suggested we start this quarterly meeting,” said Marcus Pachner, a land use consultant working with the developers. “We

want to continue to be as transparent as possible, to provide guidance on how this is happening adjacent to and in your neighborhood.” Pachner said developers plan to spend $40 million in public infrastructure improvements that will upgrade an existing lift station, storm drainage, and water lines, and add new connections. Road work will widen and add sidewalks, bike lanes and streets, and expand and upgrade intersections. “It’s important to focus on the overall infrastructure outside the development to show how we knit into the surrounding neighborhood,” he said. Uplands developers started the project with a violation, however. On Oct. 9, workers removed a portion of Shaw Boulevard within the floodplain boundary, work they don’t yet have a permit to do. The city issued a notice of violation Oct. 10, but noted the work didn’t create an adverse impact or safety issue for adjacent residents. Uplands representative characterized it as a minor violation resulting from a contractor error. Westminster resident Karen Kalavity questioned the current site work. “It’s disgusting,” she said. “What in the world is all that grading and construction? You’re not supposed to be doing construction. Grading is construction.”

Ryan Littleton, a land developer with HR Green, said the mounds of dirt are allowed and are not permanent. “It’s called over-excavation,” he said. “You process that material and put it back. The stockpiles are temporary.” “There are different approval processes every development goes through,” Pachner said. “Overlot land disturbance happens first.” John Palmer, whose home is across Lowell Boulevard from the project, asked for more consideration of adjacent homeowners. “I think you people need to be better neighbors,” he said. “You’re doing a lot of work along Lowell. The dust control is terrible. Secondly, starting at 7 a.m. with (equipment) going continually at 85 decibels, it’s detrimental to your hearing.” “Yes, we’ll try to be better on that,” Pachner said. “I think the whole reason the city encouraged these meetings is for this purpose.” The next several quarterly updates are scheduled for 5:30 p.m. on Feb. 22, May 23, Aug. 22, and Nov. 22. at Crown Pointe. Full buildout of the Uplands is expected in about 15 to 20 years. The land between Federal and Lowell boulevards and 84th and 88th avenues was owned by The Pillar of Fire Church until it was sold to Uplands developers.

Working on the bottleneck BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

With basic designs for widening the 104th Avenue bottleneck between Colorado Boulevard in Thornton and Highway 85 complete, work now begins to find money for complete designs and begin actual construction on the project. “We don’t have funding to design the whole extent, but what we have can help us get more grants,” said Thornton Engineering Manager Dan Schlitz. “If we want to get more federal grants to complete the project, this is where we want to be.” The road is mostly two lanes between Colorado Boulevard in Thornton and the intersection with Highway 85 in Commerce City. Plans call for widening the road to five lanes — two lanes in either direction with

Local transportation officials would like to see work begin by 2025 widening 104th Avenue between Thornton and Commerce City. They have a basic design ready and Thronton is working to begin detail designs for the road between Colorado BouleSCOTT TAYLOR vard and U.S, 85 in Commerce City.

a center turn lane or median. Engineers have drawn basic maps of the entire project and they presented those at an open house meeting Nov. 29 at Thornton’s Carpenter

Park Recreation Center. Technically, the current designs are considered to be 30% level designs. They show the basic layout of the road expansion, complete with new intersections, bike lanes and sidewalks, but lack the minute details such as rights of way, utilities, road grades and more. “There’s a lot of detail that you get at the 30% level,” Thornton Engineer Pete Brezall said. “It gives you a good idea of the work and what the road will look like, your elevations and grades. But at the 100% level, you get to all the issues with the project.” Work to get the 30% designs for the entire project cost $2 million, with $1.6 million in federal funds granted by the Denver Regional Council of Governments. Local governments split the rest, with Thornton paying $200,000 for the work and Adams County and Commerce City paying $100,000 each. If full funding comes through, the project could get underway next year or in 2025. “We have a lot of competition — the entire country,” Schlitz said. “There’s a lot of competition for that money because there are a lot of road that need fixing.” Complete designs next The road is a major route between the Northern Metro Denver suburbs and Denver International Airport, second to Interstate 70. It runs in almost a straight line from Sheridan Boulevard in Westminster east for 15 miles to Tower Road in Commerce City. Between 15,000 and 18,000 vehicles use the road daily, and estimates project that will increase to 25,000 and 32,000 vehicles per day over the next ten years.

Most of the road is already five lanes in both directions, including all portions west of Colorado Boulevard and east of Highway 85. The road narrows to two lanes, one in either direction, for 3.1 miles between Colorado and U.S. 85, creating a bottleneck and traffic slog. Brezall, the project manager for the 104th Avenue widening work, said Thornton has full funding to go beyond the 30% level and complete the designs for about two-thirds of the total project, from Colorado Boulevard east about two miles to the South Platte River and the Thornton city limits. “We don’t know how much the funding will actually be for the 100% designs until we get the word from (the Colorado Department of Transportation),” Brezall said. From the South Platte River east, the road continues through incorporated Adams County and then to Commerce City. “We’ve already done the widening up on the other side,” Commerce City Capital Improvement Projects Manager Michael McGoldrick said. “The road, 104th Avenue is four lanes east from U.S. 85 and has been for 15 years.” He said elected officials in both cities and Adams County need to decide how big a priority the work is. Turn lanes, bike paths The project also adds turn lanes along the way, notably to the Valente Open Space. That was big plus for neighbor Marylee Appel. “If you were coming from the west, you had to drive past it and make Uturn to get in,” she said. “With all the traffic, it doesn’t make sense to do anything else.” The widening work is also expected to establish pedestrian and bicycle routes connecting Thornton, Brighton and Commerce City. “We hope to be constructing full sidewalks through this area,” Schlitz said. “There is nothing there today. And many of the intersections there, they are no pedestrian ramps. So you’d have e a nice push button and a ramp.” Work would also raise the road between two and 12 feet in places, he said. The entire three-miles are in the South Platte’s 100-year flood zone and raising it would help ensure emergency services are able to get in and out of the area, he said.

Weld Republican makes pitch to replace Caraveo Scott James thinks he can cross political aisles to escape quagmire BY MONTE WHALEY SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Scott James said Wednesday his vast experience in local government will help him break through the glitzy quagmire that has swallowed federal lawmakers in Washington D.C. “People are tired of the show, they want somebody who can get things done,” said James, currently a Weld County Commissioner. James is running for the Republi-

can nomination to take on incumbent Congresswoman Yadira Caraveo. A Democrat, Caraveo won the newly minted 8th Congressional District seat in 2022 by a narrow margin. The race for the Eighth is attracting national attention, as it could decide the balance of power in the U.S. House of Representatives. James said the district - which includes parts of Weld, Adams and Larimer counties - is also evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats. That plays to his strengths, James said, which includes crossing the political aisle to work with Democrats and independents. “You have to do that in local government, and I’ve done that most of

my career,” he said. “You have to get things done.” The sagging economy demands the biggest fix, James said. “People can’t afford housing anymore, they can’t afford food, people are losing hope,” he said. James’s opponents for the GOP nomination have zero to almost no experience in local government, James said. “My experience in local government goes back 25 years,” he said. “I can work with people to accomplish what needs to be done.” Running against James for the Republican nomination is Joe Andujo, an Air Force veteran and a health insurance consultant and Gabe Evans, U.S Army veteran and former police officer. Evans was elected to

the Colorado House in November 2022 to represent District 48. Prior to being county commissioner, James served on the Johnstown City Council and a term as mayor. He was also the former chair of the Weld County GOP and a radio host. James on Wednesday was flanked by 20 Colorado county commissioners who endorsed his bid to unseat Caraveo. Fremont County Commissioner Debbie Bell said she is backing James because of his grounded approach to government. “He will bring back common sense to the government, something we have been lacking,” Bell said. “He understands that smaller government is better government.”

Rocky Mountain Metro Airport director makes sudden departure After five years at the helm, Paul Anslow leaves Colorado’s third busiest airport amid ‘personnel matter’ BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport Director Paul Anslow suddenly departed from his post Nov. 29, leaving behind mixed impressions about his management and handling of local issues. Anslow did not return calls seeking comment and airport and local officials are tight-lipped about his Nov.

29 departure, describing it only as a “personnel matter.” Meanwhile, others, who were heavily involved with the airport’s affairs said they’d experienced years of frustration with Anslow and are relieved he’s no longer in charge. Anslow served as director for the last five years. “I’ve been trying to tell people for as long as he’s been here what he’s about, what he was doing, how he was conducting business at the airport,” said Daril Cinquanta, president of the Jefferson County Aviation Association. “Maybe now we can get a good airport manager.” The aviation association represents the airport’s tenants and users. RMMA, the third busiest airport in the state, has more than 400 based aircraft and 50 businesses. Cinquanta sent several letters to

county leaders expressing concerns about Anslow, the most recent on Nov. 9. In it, he objected to Anslow’s conduct and response to tenants’ concerns. Cinquanta said he does not know if his letters factored into Anslow’s departure. “I can’t share the reasons behind his (Anslow’s) departure since it’s a personnel matter, and a matter of his own professional privacy,” said Cassie Pearce, Jefferson County public affairs director. The regional public-use airport, founded in 1960, is owned and operated as an enterprise fund by the county. It is run by a staff of approximately 25 county employees, who oversee its administration, operation and maintenance. Jefferson County issued a short press release on Nov. 29, saying county Chief Financial Officer Dr. Stephanie Corbo was announcing Anslow’s departure, was assuming leadership. Corbo, to whom the airport director reports, had not returned calls requesting comment. “We are grateful for the work that Paul and his team have done to move the airport forward as a regional resource and are proud of the steps that RMMA has taken to expedite the airport’s transition to unleaded fuel,” Corbo said in the release. Jefferson County Commissioner Tracy Kraft-Tharp, who sat on the airport’s Community Noise Roundtable and worked closely with Anslow on multiple issues, said she had no details about the exit and did not respond to additional questions from Colorado Community Media. Commissioners Andy Kerry and Lesley Dahlkemper also did not return calls requesting comment. Assistant Airport Directors Brandon Burns and Brian Bishop will continue to serve in their current capacity, reporting to Corbo. “As we work to fill this vital role, we will continue to collaborate with the community and our regional partners,” Corbo stated. Leaded fuel transition

In October, Anslow headed a press conference during which he announced RMMA expected to be the first airport in the state to fully transition to unleaded fuel. Airport officials had purchased a fuel truck and storage tank to transport unleaded fuel, and aims to serve two-thirds of

its fleet with unleaded fuel by late 2024. With those changes, the airport is poised to beat a federal 2030 deadline to phase out leaded fuel, which has been linked to public health concerns. Pearce said those efforts will continue. “Paul really did a good job of leading that,” she said. “I think Jefferson County is really proud of that and proud our airport is moving to quickly to make those changes.” Arvada City Councilor John Marriott, who serves as a neighboring jurisdiction representative on the airport’s advisory board, said he had no details about Anslow’s departure and no qualms about his performance. “He was terrific to work with,” he said. “In my eyes, he was doing a fantastic job at the airport.” But Cinquanta, a retired Denver police detective and pilot, saw Anslow very differently. Among many complaints, Cinquanta said the director did not keep a promise to let the aviation association review the airport’s rules and regulations and minimum standards— criteria established by the airport that must be met by individuals and businesses wanting to provide on-airport aeronautical activities or services. “We had an agreement we would be able to look at them before they went to the county commissioners with our suggestions,” he said. “It never happened. He would never follow through. I never found him to be credible or honest.” Cinquanta said he and Anslow repeatedly had heated exchanges about airport issues. “I feel like we finally accomplished something,” he said of Anslow’s departure. “RMMA is a great airport. The pilots that fly out of it are great. Their hearts are truly in the right place. They just want to see it prosper. We don’t need this kind of crap on the airport.” Westminster’s Charlene Willey, who lives in a neighborhood adjacent to the airport and is with the Save Our Skies Alliance, said she found Anslow difficult to work with. Willey has worked for years with the airport on issues including phasing out the use of leaded fuel and noise abatement. SEE DEPARTURE, P7

Northglenn and Latino communities lose cherished member Lucille Ruibal Rivera, who believed her life’s purpose was to serve, died Nov. 18 BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Northglenn and Latino community is mourning the loss of a beloved leader who died recently at her Northglenn home in an apparent murder-suicide. Lucille Ruibal Rivera, 70, died Nov. 18. A funeral service is planned from 10 a.m. to noon Dec. 8 at Latina Funerals and Cremations, 3020 Federal Blvd., Denver. Northglenn police responded to a call on Delaware Court at about 9 p.m. Nov. 18. Officers found Rivera and an adult male dead inside the home. According to CBS News, a family member said Rivera and her boyfriend were breaking up, and he ended both their lives. Rivera served on the Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation (NAHF) Board and was a former member of the city’s Diversity, Inclusivity and Social Equity (DISE) Board. She also served eight years as executive director of the nonprofit Chicano Humanities and Arts Council. A former Denver Health clinic administrator, she also helped launch what is now known as the Tepeyac Community Health Center, which provides health care to underserved populations. The clinic grew from a 750-square-foot space in a house into a 25,000-square-foot facility providing services to thousands. Rivera was also well-known as a photographer. “I used to call Lucille my abuelita,” said Michael Stricker, Northglenn’s arts, culture and community man-

“He did not engender goodwill,” she said. “He wasn’t good at PR. He said so many things that just plain weren’t factual at a variety of pub-

ager. “Even though we weren’t related, that is the way she was with people. She made you feel like family. And like a grandmother she was protective, never held back her opinion, and always asked how you were doing. “What made her stand out though was her passion. Passion for her culture, family, advocacy, and for art. It’s now our responsibility to carry on her story.” City Manager Heather Geyer knew Rivera both through her work for the city and as a neighbor. “One of fondest memories I have is hanging out in her front yard one evening this past summer with her and her new puppy, Nala and my pup Kyla,” she said. “Lucille loved her dogs and especially her new puppy. She always radiated light and love in our neighborhood. We have felt this tragic loss. She will be deeply missed.” Brenda Gurule, executive director of the Chicano Humanities and Arts Council, said she helped keep the organization alive and growing. “She believed deeply in the legacy of CHAC and the need to pass down this legacy to future generations,” she said. “Her deep commitment to CHAC was instrumental in the recent acquisition of a permanent home for CHAC back in the Santa Fe Arts District. Her strength and tenacity helped ensure CHAC’s survival through the COVID-19 crisis.” Northglenn city staff shared a quote from Rivera’s NAHF board application, which they said made her stand out as a candidate. “I believe that my purpose in life is to be a servant, something that I have done in different ways my whole life,” she wrote. “I feel honored and humbled to be able to serve in my community if given the opportunity.” lic forums and on a variety of topics.” While Willey said she does not know the reasons for Anslow’s departure, she is not surprised. “When he came in, that’s when the problems with the community began,” she said. “The pressure’s been building for a very long time.”

Officials dispute survey ranking Westminster as ‘most expensive’ Survey results may not be cause for alarm BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A recent national report says Westminster ranks highest in Colorado for cost of living among urban areas included in the analysis, and 36th nationwide. But city leaders say the analysis does not paint a complete picture. While Westminster made the top spot statewide on the third quarter 2023 Cost of Living Index, only four Colorado cities — Denver, Colorado Springs, Grand Junction and Westminster —volunteered to participate in the most recent survey. The cost of living in all four Colorado cities rated higher than the national average, with Westminster barely edging out Denver. The quarterly report from the Council for Community and Economic Research compares regional differences in the cost of housing, utilities, groceries, transportation, health care, and miscellaneous

goods and services. The council has published the report since 1968. “While the study has been around for many decades, it has its flaws,” said Andy Le, Westminster’s communications manager. “In this instance, there are only four cities in all of Colorado that reported. It doesn’t mean that Westminster is the most expensive city in Colo-

rado. It is only the most ‘expensive’ among these four cities that are themselves very different. “Westminster is the eighth largest city in the state, and there are 13 larger than 100,000 in population. Cities like Broomfield, Aurora, Lakewood, Commerce City, Fort Collins, Pueblo, Thornton, Boulder and Highlands Ranch are not even

included in this index. So to say that Westminster is the most expensive city in the state is very disingenuous and misleading.” While Westminster rated close to average and even below average in some of the six categories, it rated significantly higher on cost of housing. The index scored its housing costs at 130.5%; the average is 100. While that was also the highest among the four Colorado cities included, the index showed the cost for housing in many other cities, most on the East and West coasts, at more than double the average. “Westminster is an incredibly popular place to live,” said City Councilor Rich Seymour. “That drives up the cost of housing. “But we’re nowhere near as expensive as Boulder County or the downtown Denver urban corridor. We’re in the perfect middle spot on that, and I think that’s what drives some of our new successes. It’s great to be a place where people want to live.” Le also pointed out that the Cost of Living Index doesn’t consider the impact of taxes, which vary widely across the country.

West metro mayors discuss affordable housing, homelessness and more at annual Mayors Roundtable BY JO DAVIS JDAVIS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Arvada Chamber of Commerce recently hosted four regional mayors in the annual Mayors Roundtable at Revive Church in Arvada. The panel included Mayor Bud Starker of Wheat Ridge, Mayor Nancy McNally of Westminster, Mayor Lauren Simpson of Arvada and Mayor Pro Tem J.J. Trout of Golden. The roundtable was moderated by Denver Metro Chamber’s Director of Marketing and Communication Jim Siedlecki. Siedlecki posed questions to the mayors and the mayor pro tem about current issues facing all the communities in the region. Each one revealed plans and solutions in addition to a few personal stories and jokes. Siedlecki asked each official to talk about their plans, initiatives and strategies to tackle affordable housing in their respective cities. Starker led the conversation with a proud description of Wheat Ridge’s Affordable Housing Strategy and Action Plan. That was followed by a rundown of the affordable housing projects in various stages of development around the city and partnerships with organizations to make those happen. Starker also discussed incentives to landlords to maintain affordable housing, a new affordable housing city manager position and Wheat Ridge’s decision to also opt into Prop 123. Trout said Golden is small and focused on preserving while also creating affordable housing. “We committed to increasing our affordable housing units by 3% each year for three years,” Trout said. “That was about 26 units per year, which makes Golden and our partners eligible to access the funding through Prop 123.” Trout described an assessment similar to Wheat Ridge that the city of Golden conducted to determine an affordable housing plan. This plan helped the city tailor its effects into initiatives to help landlords and tenants preserve affordable housing. Trout also mentioned helping a mobile home park gain ownership and making Golden a part of the National League of Cities.

Simpson shared Arvada’s current work on an action plan similar to that of Wheat Ridge and Golden. Arvada is also opting for Prop 123. Simpson, like Starker, gave a list of affordable housing projects that Arvada is working on with its own partners. Simpson described a new affordable housing development in progress in Arvada that will “supply what looks like luxury housing, but it’ll be primarily targeted at families of 30 to 70%, area median income range.” The Arvada Chamber of Commerce hosted the Annual Mayors Roundtable. Onstage, McNally shared Westminster opted from the left, Jim Siedlecki, Mayor Laura Simpson, Mayor Pro Tem JJ Trout, Mayor into Prop 123 as well. The city is in the Bud Starker, and Mayor Nancy McNally. COURTESY ARVADA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE final stages of its own housing study to determine the affordable housing needs of the city. McNally also detailed a number of affordable housing projects, as the other officials did. However, McNally said Westminster is also looking at the needs of older adults in the community. “The aging population is going to be huge for this entire area for the next 15 to 20 years,” McNally said. She wanted the mayors to consider questions about Medicaid payments and considerations in their housing plans. Westminster is also developing condos, according to McNally. That was a fact Siedlecki picked up on. “All of us with children that are in college would like to have them live (in the Denver area),” Siedlecki said, acknowledging that the region is lacking in homes in the $200,000 to 4300,000 range. The mayors also answered questions about homelessness. Starker mentioned Wheat Ridge’s mental health focus in relation to the unhoused population. Trout shared the story of a family member who is unhoused. The mental health challenges make the situation complex, so Trout was glad to see that Starker had developed a program that considers unhoused people similar to her family member. Simpson reiterated a point that all of the officials ended up making: The cities had to band together to tackle these issues. “Here in the front range, we are all working quite collaboratively to be able to try and address (homelessness) because no one municipality can do this on its own,” Simpson said.

The chamber’s board of directors announced Nov. 29 that it had hired Jamie Chavez to be the organization’s next president and chief executive officer. Prior to joining the Westminster Chamber of Commerce in 2021, Chavez owned and operated Toast Coffee and Wine Bar in Windsor, Colorado, and served as Senior Public Relations Specialist and Program Manager with the Wyoming Office of the Attorney General from 2011 to 2016. She currently serves as Adjunct Faculty of the Laramie County Community College, and holds degrees from Laramie Community College, The University of Wyoming, The University of Phoenix and Penn State University. Chavez replaces Juliet Abdel, who resigned from the job in September to take a similar position in Topeka, Kan. “We received over 300 applicants from more than 40 states and 5 countries,” said board chair Parker Brown. “Jamie’s experience working with our chamber over the past two years, and her innovative ideas for the future, really set her apart.” Rocky Mountain Human Services wins Adams, Denver counties contract

The Colorado Department of Health Care Policy & Financing is redesigning its case management process, naming a Colorado firm to manage responses for Adams and Denver counties. The change began Nov. 1. Colorado non-profit group Rocky Mountain Human Services will provide streamlined case management services to individuals with disabilities or other complex needs requiring long-term, home, and communitybased support. The new contract is part of Colorado’s redesigned case management system intended to make it easier for people needing services to navigate the system and get the care they need. It is designed to ensure that people have one place to go for questions and support and to improve the quality of care they receive. “We are proud and honored to be selected as the Case Management Agency for Denver and Adams Coun-

ties,” said RMHS executive director Shari Repinski. “It’s essential to reduce the burden of a complex and siloed system of care by creating a more inclusive and streamlined Long Term Care system in Colorado that recognizes and caters to the diverse needs of individuals, regardless of their disability. RMHS looks forward to making it easier for people to access care and to know that they have a trusted partner they can count on to treat them with the utmost respect and compassion.” ‘Taking No Chances’

The 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office and The Link, a community resource and assessment center in Thornton, offer free, 10-week programs to families of Adams County teenagers to help develop personal and interpersonal drug-resistance skills. Sessions are from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Wednesdays. Call 720-292-2811. The preparedness program focuses on older adults

The Adams County Health Department’s Emergency Preparedness & Response team celebrates National Preparedness Month each September. This year, the 2023 campaign theme is “Helping Older Adults Prepare for Disaster.” The program will focus on older adults from communities disproportionally impacted by an event that is a man-made emergency or a natural disaster. We know older adults can face more significant risks regarding the extreme weather events and crises we now meet, especially if they live alone, are low-income, have a disability, or live in rural areas. This flyer, available in English and Spanish, is a powerful resource for viewers and readers. Naloxone Training for Employees and Community Members

Westminster City Council’s ‘new look’

t’s a new day; it’s a new dawn, it’s a new council majority in Westminster. One thing is certain in politics - change will come sooner or later. Whichever party or political persuasion is calling the shots will ultimately lose their control. Just look at how the U.S. Congress has had one party or the other as the majority party in each house off and on. It’s like a windshield wiper - it’s on; it’s off; it’s on again. Not too long agol, the Dems - aka progressives - had control of the Westminster City Council with a Republican Mayor by the name of Atchison who were influenced by an untrained/inexperienced city manager. They went too far with an unthrottled set of actions including excessive water rates, a planned $250 million new water treatment plant, umpteen approved apartment developments changing the Comprehensive Land Use Plan four times and much more chaos. Plus, the attitude of city officials went in the toilet brushing off citizens. Then in 2021, the voters said “enough” and elected a more conservative mayor and council majority when Nancy McNally and Dave DeMott (re-elected) joined incumbent council members Rich Seymour and Lindsey Emmons. Also elected two years ago were progressive newbies Sarah Nurmela and Obi Ezeadi with ultra-conservative Bruce Baker winning the two year stint left on Anita Seitz’s council term. Now, in 2023, the dominant force will swing back to the more liberal side of the house with Claire Carmelia and Amber Hott being elected and joining Nuremla and Ezeadi. The seventh council member will be Kristine Ireland who is farther to the right than all the others. We will see how the progressive leadership rolls out with Ezeadi or Nuremla probably becoming mayor pro-tem. Time will tell how aggressive the new majority will wield their control over more affordable housing, lower water rates, more parks and open space and the fate of the new water treatment plant which is far down the road as far as contract work, land condemnation etc.

CMAS scores are quite concerning

I promised more Colorado Depart-

ment of Education academic scores to demonstrate Westminster Public Schools status. Previously, I provided WPS overall Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) scores for 2023 along with other area school Bill Christopher districts. The scores involve 3rd grade8th grade students. Just to recap, WPS had a districtwide score of 24.8% in English Language Arts and 15.5% in math. The math score is especially concerning. When compared to other school districts in the immediate area except for Mapleton School District, WPS students did poorly comparatively speaking. I am well aware of the school administration’s mantra of lower income, minority families with above average mobility. I recognize the real-life challenges compared to higher income, neighborhoods with less moving around. But isn’t some progress each year a reasonable expectation? Yes, the district moved out of being a “Turnaround District,” as per CDE criteria, but they were toward the bottom and had only one way to go - up! Hey, I admire the road travelled by district administrators and teachers. However, more progress each year is essential if these students are to succeed. Bottom line, isn’t that what we want for our children and grandchildren?

CROSS CURRENTS

The facts speak for themselves

Let’s drill down and look at some individual WPS schools to see how their students performed. Let’s start with the highest performing school which is Colorado STEM Academy. Their English Language Arts score was 54.8% and their math score was 48% both of which exceeds the statewide average. Congrats to them, their teachers and principal. These are the brightest students in the district. Next, let’s look at the lowest performing school, which was Josephine Hodgkins Leadership Academy. Their English score was 17% while their math score was 9.3%, both of which

are well below the statewide averages. Next time, we will look at a couple of schools’ results which are more in the middle for WPS. Have you ever seen any of these scores reported by WPS? However, you clearly see the point which the scores bring out: WPS students continue to struggle academically at least in English Language Arts and math. Again, let’s remember that test scores are not an “end-all” for school academics, but they are important in measuring student learning and hopefully some degree of academic progress. A true example of Thanksgiving

There are all kinds of touching stories out there about examples of sharing at Thanksgiving. The one I want to share with all of you touched my heart. Thanks to Melissa Dukes, who manages the Westminster Presbyterian Church food bank and the community Thanksgiving meal, I am privy to the wonderful Thanksgiving feast which over 40 volunteers planned, prepared, cooked, served and cleaned up to benefit 75 well-deserving souls. Members of Westminster Presbyterian Church, the Westminster Stake of the Church of Later-Day Saints, the Journey Church and Congregation B’Nai Torah partnered in the successful event. Many LDS youth were especially helpful in greeting, serving and cleaning up afterwards. Actual costs of $714 by the church and $365 in in-kind food donations plus the volunteer labor of love were a pittance compared to the joy, love and sharing which was experienced that day. Most of the attendees were people who benefit from the church’s food bank and are experiencing hard times of one kind or another. Others came from the City of Westminster’s Homeless Navigator’s efforts and volunteers who walk homeless camps weekly. Beyond the raw numbers involved, it is more important to point out the giving and caring spirit which prevailed and was felt. Music filled the air during the feast at the church’s Nickless Hall where the event took place in “the Heart of Westminster.” Thank you Lord for such caring and sharing people who reached out to serve those in need.

Come visit The Fuse Box at Downtown Westminster

Here is something new for all art connoisseurs. The Paletteers Art Club has set up shop at the Fuse Box at the New Downtown. Various members of the art club will be showing their paintings every month with new artists hanging their work monthly starting November 30. The shop will be open from noon to 5:00 p.m. on Thursdays through Sundays. The space, which is located across from The Alamo Theatre, is compliments of the City of Westminster. Come support local artists especially during this holiday shopping season. Artists may be contacted for commission work as well. Attempting to mix more Ukrainian funding with revised border security measures

Here’s a new mountain to climb for Congress. A bipartisan group in the U.S. Senate is initiating an effort to package additional military funding to Ukraine which would be tied to some degree of change in the United States’ border security. Now, that is like expecting a miracle to weave such a combo package through the Senate; let alone the House of Representatives. Republicans are thinking that President Biden and Democrats in Congress are feeling the pressure to change border immigration policies, which he should. Illegal crossings topped a daily average of more than 8,000 earlier this fall. I would side with the Republicans on the need to clamp down on immigrant border crossings as well as beefing up border security and hiring more border security guards. As a country, we have gotten way too porous in the policies allowing so many migrants to declare asylum plus allowing immigrants to wait for their case here in the United States. The infrastructure both at the border like in El Paso, Texas as well as busing people to “open” cities such as Denver, New York City and San Francisco have been overwhelmed both physically as well as financially. There has to be a limit to how many immigrants can be allowed across our borders. This is overdue for sure!

LIFE

Board games are rising in popularity, and local shop owners say the games mean a lot to people BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

hen game shop owners throughout the metro area talk about the reasons they got into the business, they all use the same word: Community. Games stores are more than just a center for play or a place to buy games. They serve as social hubs, something shop owners say is increasingly hard to find and ever more valued in today’s society. While church attendance continues to plummet, politics becomes ever more divisive, and tech devices are a growing part of our daily lives, the human need for physical connection remains. Sitting across a table from others and playing games, while temporarily setting aside worries that today often range from personal to global, is one way to fill that void.

“It really fosters an alternative for people who are not interested in religion or some other types of traditional community. And ours is a lot more welcoming in ways, too,” said Shannon Mills, who co-owns Littleton’s Mythic Games with her husband Mike Agnew. “We know everybody here, and we’re all here for the same kinds of reasons.” In fact, a recently opened Thornton game shop took its name from that philosophy. “We were kicking around what to call it, and a friend said, ‘Call yourself what you’re trying to do. You’re trying to build a community, to do good,’” said Jessica Willman, co-owner of Thornton’s Do Gooder Games. “Gaming is almost entirely about the community aspect,” said Jeff Kokx, co-owner of Enchanted Grounds, which has stores in both Highlands Ranch and Littleton. “I don’t think any game store owner is actually in it to make a mint. I think we do it because we enjoy it. We like the people that come in. We like community.” Whatever the reason, board gaming is hot. In fact, the Washington Post recently described now as the golden age of board games, and there are no signs of its slowing. The global board games market is expected

to double in the next several years, growing from about $13 billion in 2023 to $26 billion by 2030. Board games promote sportsmanship, family, teamwork and competitiveness, and studies show they increase self-confidence. For kids who today spend hours each day interacting with technology, playing board games gives them time away from the screen, directly interacting with others. “I think the value of in-person communication and collaboration is very

important,” said Gabby Mann, who co-owns the Golden Game Guild with her husband Ryun Valdez. “Hopefully that doesn’t get lost in this wild world we live in now. I’m glad we have opportunities for that here, especially for kids.” “Our society is losing places to meet in person,” Valdez said. “There needs to be places besides just bars, especially for families, where people can go.” SEE PLAYTIME, P15

PLAYTIME FROM PAGE 14

Having a sense of community is also key to a successful game store’s business model. “Building community is building value,” Do Gooder Games’ partner Dan William said. “Once you’ve built the community, then revenue follows.” Mythic Games’ Agnew agrees. With ever-growing competition from other game shops and online shopping, brick-and-mortar stores have to distinguish themselves. “We never want to win customers on having the lowest prices,” he said. “That generates a very cheap and temporary loyalty. They’re not loyal to you; they’re loyal to the price. “There’s no competing with Amazon,” his wife Shannon said. “So we have to provide interest in different ways. We keep our space super clean, fun and open, and are always adding different events. It’s all about bringing people together.” Pandemic and game innovation fuels growth

The game shop formula is a winning one, particularly in recent years — a fact business analysts attribute to increased innovation in board game creation and the rise of game shops. The pandemic likely helped fuel that growth, as many people not only rediscovered board games while in lockdown but emerged from months of isolation craving social interaction and mental stimulation. “In the end, I think COVID(-19) was good for business,” Shannon Mills said. “People were so starved for human interaction. You can only play so many video games before you want to see somebody face-to-face.” Much of the industry’s growth is fueled by Gen Z. About 40% of game

board players were born between 1997 and 2012, and forecasts suggest they’ll continue to be the industry’s most significant consumers. But it’s kids who dominate the industry. Players aged 5 to 12 are the global market’s biggest consumers. To meet all that demand, the industry produces more than 3,000 new games each year. And for those who haven’t played in a while, they’ve come a long way from Battleship and Aggravation. On today’s board game menu, there is literally something for everyone. “People will come in and say, ‘I don’t like games,’” said Mann, of Golden Game Guild. And we say, ‘You haven’t played the right game yet.’” Consider games like Wingspan, a card-based game about birds. Using hand-painted cards, players control a piece of land, on which they’re tasked with populating a bird preserve. Many describe playing Wingspan as a soothing, Zen-like experience. It’s clearly struck a chord. Since its 2019 release, Wingspan has sold 1.7 million copies and won numerous awards. Or Pandemic, a game in which plays are disease-fighting specialists battling the spread of several global plagues. Each player has a unique role, and must strategize, racing the clock with their fellow players to con-

quer the diseases. This highly rated, award-winning game is not simple, but players love it for both its complexity and emphasis on teamwork. The tabletop role playing game Dungeons & Dragons, once a niche and secretive pastime played in basements and private rooms, is a feature act at almost any modern game shop. Almost all set aside one night for D&D, which often draws complete strangers together to craft their own fictional characters, worlds, and adventures. Created in the 1970s, the game is today at an all-time popularity peak. Fans also flock to game shops to play “Magic: The Gathering,” the oldest known trading card game. It casts players as wizards who get their powers from a universe of cards that are bought, sold and traded. And among the younger set, Pokémon trading cards remain a strong seller. Boosting the industry, celebrities are onboard with D&D and other games. “The stigma that once surrounded D&D has been removed,” Kokx said. “There are people who are very much in the limelight that play this D&D publicly — Vin Diesel, Jason Momoa, Joe Manganiello, Wil Wheaton … many have created podcasts and YouTube channels to promote the game.

“A lot of that is because our generation grew up with these games in the ‘70s and ‘80s. Now we’re older with disposable income, and introducing our kids to it. And it’s significantly more accepted.” In an effort to accommodate the growing interest in in-person gaming and the vast library of available games, shops are growing. Enchanted Grounds opened a second location. Mythic recently expanded to a whopping 6,300 square feet, giving them more space for games but more pockets within the store in which groups can play specific games together. And while many game shops cater specifically to the gaming community, offering sandwiches, snacks, soda, tea, and even limited alcohol sales, they’ve also broadened their focus to draw more customers. Do Gooder Games and Enchanted Grounds specialize in high-end, local coffee, and Do Gooder Games sells sandwiches, even drawing employees from local businesses for lunch. That’s not just good for the customer base, it’s almost vital for gamers. “Some of these games take 4-6 hours to play,” said Do Gooder’s Jessica Willman. “Sitting down and playing a six-hour game without any food or breaks is hard.” With its emphasis on quality coffee, Enchanted Grounds draws a broad range of customers. A Navy veterans group regularly meets there to talk and drink coffee. Women’s groups gather for mahjong and canasta. Remote workers in neighboring homes and apartments stop by to work for a few hours. All are part of the game shop community. Do Gooder Games includes a room that can be used to record podcasts, space for community meetings and an employee who teaches newcomers to the business how to play games. “Success to me will be defined by who successful the community is a the end of the day,” Dan Willman said. “We are thinking how to work with our community, and also how to help but also disrupt the industry. To break down the barriers and the stereotypes of (game shop customers) being white and male-dominated, you need to cater to new people.” And just maybe, those new customers will find a game they love. “There’s a game for everybody, and it’s almost never Monopoly,” Mythic Games’ Shannon Mills said. “Gaming is like a walk-in closet; it’s way bigger than you thought it would be.”

It’s expensive to go to concerts in Colorado. Let’s dig into why. was true in 2021, when ticket prices increased about 15% at Red Rocks and nearly 45% at the Denver Coliseum. But this year the average price decreased from 2022’s averages, indicating a leveling-off of ticket prices. Still, the increase in the average ticket price over the past five years is significantly higher than yearover-year inflation rates. For instance, the average price of a ticket to a Red Rocks concert has grown 31% since 2018, while inflation for metro Denver is about 24% over that same period. The most dramatic change to ticket prices comes from the introduction of service fees. Prior to the 1980s, when Ticketmaster launched, venues paid the ticketing servicer. But Ticketmaster flipped that model, paying venues in exchange for being hired to handle ticketing and then passed the costs on to customers in the form of service fees. Since these fees are somewhat arbitrary — hashed out in negotiations between the ticketing service, the concert promoter and the venue — service fees as a whole have generated a new rising cost for concertgoers independent of inflation or post-pandemic economics. The opaque charges add to the frustration of spectators upset that outside forces are gouging their entertainment budgets. This story was printed through a news sharing agreement with The Colorado Sun, a journalist-owned news outlet based in Denver that covers the state. This story is also part of the Sun’s ongoing series talking to Coloradans about their challenges, their fears and their solutions to the rising costs of living. More at www.ColoradoSun.com

The first concert Jonathan Kahn ever attended at Red Rocks Amphitheatre was Loggins & Messina in July 1976. Nearly 50 years later, Kahn is parked in the lower south lot of the iconic outdoor venue, sitting in the doorway of his Sprinter van with a Snarf’s sandwich, waiting for a storm to blow through before he heads inside to hear Hiatus Kaiyote and Masego. Kahn said he had been to five Red Rocks shows this year, shaking his head slightly — that number used to be a lot higher. Kahn isn’t the only one who has slimmed down his annual concert intake. Overall attendance at cultural institutions across the state is

Denver and 22% in Colorado outside of metro Denver. Some of that dip is due to the fact that some people still don’t — and may never — feel comfortable attending events with large crowds after the pandemic. But more of that dip is attributed to the fact that entertainment is “a want not a need,” said Brian Kitts, Denver Arts and Venues spokesman. People adjust their spending according to what they feel they can afford. And when the cost of living is up in every other aspect of life, the amount that people are willing to spend on tickets to concerts, plays and museums goes down. In 2018, the share of a person’s overall expenditures on arts and entertainment was 6.1% in metro Denver, significantly higher than the national average of 5.1%. In 2022, that percentage was 4.9%, lower than the national average of 5%. In dollars, this equates to roughly $500 per person per year less in spending. Some experts anticipated a postCOVID price jump that artists and promoters would use to offset lost revenue from the pandemic. That

The Menzingers make punk rock that has more in common with legendary groups like Bruce Springsteen & The E-Street Band than it does with the Sex Pistols, and to my mind, that’s all to the good. Over their more than 15-year career, the group’s sound has evolved to be as anthemic as the biggest arena rock band while sacrificing none of its working-man ethos.

Their latest album, “Some of It Was True,” continues in this vein, offering some of their sharpest songwriting paired with some truly rocking tunes. In celebration of the album, the group is joining with a top-notch group of indie rock stalwarts for a special performance at the Mission Ballroom, 4242 Wynkoop St. in Denver, at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 13. They’ll be joined by Microwave, Cloud Nothings and Rodeo Boys for anything but a quiet night. Get tickets at www.ticketmaster. com. Clarke Reader’s column on culture appears on a weekly basis.

A nod to behind-the-scenes heroes as fall sports end Meet the women who single-handedly manage Jeffco’s North Area Athletic Complex BY JOHN RENFROW JRENFROW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The string-pullers you don’t see on game days are often the unsung heroes of high school sporting events, providing countless essentials for consistently safe and successful seasons. Those crucial tasks, which include everything from using agronomic science to determine the perfect cut on sports fields, to battling prairie dogs who take up residency on the grounds, are often thankless and escape the minds of attendees who take game days for granted. As fall sports wrap and winter closes in for Jeffco Athletics, local stadium managers celebrate another successful season. That is, for about five minutes, and then it’s time to get back to work. Hometown heroes For Sun Roesslein and Christi Clay, stadium managers at the North Area Athletic Complex (NAAC) in Arvada, it’s a year-round labor of love. The NAAC property is 14 acres and is the home field to six northarea Jeffco schools: Arvada, Arvada West, Pomona, Ralston Valley, Golden and Standley Lake. Plus, schools like Green Mountain, Wheat Ridge, Evergreen, Conifer and others frequently call it home for soccer matches as needed. During a football season, the complex will see close to 30 games in just 12 weeks. Between mowing the entire lot, providing tree care, irrigation, staffing events for ticket sales and painting the field for games and more, the dynamic duo has their hands full. It’s just Roesslein and Clay. Occasionally they’ll get some summer help, but for the most part, any additional crew positions remain open. Otherwise, the duo has mostly

Christi Clay (left) and Sun Roesslein are the stadium managers for the North Area Athletic Complex in Arvada. The duo handles everything from turf management to irrigation and tree care, painting, renovations and more. Both are two of about 250 JOHN RENFROW certified sports field managers in the country.

no extra hands. Just honest work, and a lot of it. “All the work is done before the gates open,” said a laughing Roesslein, who’s been at the NAAC for 18 years. “So when fans or players walk in for a football game on Friday night, they don’t know that it’s Christi and I who have painted the field that week, or fixed irrigation, or cleaned bathrooms or any of those things. Because it’s all done. It’s kind of like elves show up overnight and it’s magic.” But the real heavy lifting comes with managing the fields: which height of cut to use for football versus soccer, which drought-resistant, traffic-tolerant type of turfgrass is best for each sport, or how to resurrect the field after a heavy winter season when it’s still “dormant” for on onslaught of spring sports.

“That’s the passion,” Roesslein said. “That’s what we do every day. I just love coming to work every day. I love what I get to do. I’m super blessed to get to work with Christi. We work really well together. But yeah, (turf and sports field management), that’s the bread and butter.” Titans of a growing industry Though they wouldn’t tell you, Roesslein and Clay are two of a handful of pioneers leading a growing wave of women in turf and women in sports management across the country. Clay began as Roesslein’s assistant, but for 10 years she’s been a peer and co-stadium manager for the NAAC with Roesslein. Roesslein got her start in Lexington, Kentucky more than 20 years ago working for the minor league baseball Lexington Legends (now Lexington Counter

Clocks). Both are members of the Sports Field Management Association, and Roesslein is the current president. In her 20 years as a member and leader, she said the number of women interested has steadily grown. SMFA has about 2,000 members with a 4% female membership rate. Overall, it’s not very common, Roesslein said, but it is growing. “To see the growth in numbers (of women) at the annual conference in January has been really cool over those 20 years,” Roesslein said. In 2021, both Roesslein and Clay made history as part of the groundbreaking all-women’s grounds crew at the Olympic Club in San Francisco for the U.S. Women’s Open Golf Championship. In 2022, they returned to work the U.S. Women’s Open at Pine Needles Lodge and Golf Club in Southern Pines, North Carolina. “It’s kind of the first time that a large group of women came together to be the course maintenance team, especially at a major tournament like that,” Roesslein said. “So, that was really what kind of kicked off this larger movement I think. There’s been some events here and there leading up to that, but that was the first time we were visible performing what we do every day.” Roesslein also organized an all-female volunteer grounds crew for the Little League Softball World Series in 2022. It was the first time a predominantly female crew (with some male volunteers) managed the event in the then-48-year history of the LLSWS. The same crew, with few more members this time, returned in 2023 as well. Bucking a male-dominated trend Roesslien said when she was growing up, playing softball all around the country, it never occurred to her that sports field management was an option. Then again, it was never really expected of her to enter that space. That’s something she’s trying to change for future generations. SEE HEROS, P21

HEROS FROM PAGE 20

“We’re hoping that events like the U.S. Women’s Open, the Little League Softball World Series, what we do day-in and day-out here at the NAAC will help us be more visible,” she said. “And to get the word out that this is a profession and a fantastic career option. We get to stay close to the sports world. We get to use a little bit of science and technology. I say a lot that this is a complete STEM career because it involves all those things.” There are several paths of entry into the industry, especially at the NAAC level, Roesslein said. But again, because most of the work is done behind the scenes, people don’t see Roesslein and Clay caring for the property. As a result, people don’t ever see this (literally) as a career option. If it isn’t visible, it’s hard for it to become contagious. But the tide is shifting. “As an association and specifically the women in it, we’re working hard to say, ‘This is amazing! I have the coolest job on the planet!’” Roesslein said. “We’re working hard to get some curriculum into high schools. We have a whole high school turf grass management curriculum built, and we’re still trying to get kids exposed to this being a viable professional option sooner in their

lives. A lot of us discovered it late and just kind of lucked into finding out it was a thing.” As fall sports end, Roesslein and Clay’s to-do list doesn’t shrink. They’ll begin catching up on equipment maintenance, building maintenance and painting. They didn’t go home for Thanksgiving because of a potential return to NAAC for the playoffs. They’ll get started on research for the next year and what the program will look like throughout. From changing products with the seasons to recovering fields in the summer for next fall, plus a laundry list of scientific technicalities about grass and soil and drainage that we can hardly understand from the outside, the work never stops. The fruit of their labor, the success of good health “To know at the end of the game that every athlete has the opportunity to play next time I think is the biggest thing for me,” Roesslein said. Safety for student athletes is paramount. After all, that’s what they do all that work for throughout the year. Where families, players and fans might take an event for granted, or be disappointed by their side’s result, the real victory for Roesslein and Clay is not just an even playing ground, but the most pristine, safe, reliable playing ground possible, every time. They know the implications of their hard work and don’t take light-

ly the subtle differences that could make or break an athlete’s career. “Think about Patrick Mahomes, right? One of the top players in football right now. Had he suffered a career-ending injury at any point in his career, think about how that would change the game,” Roesslein said. Over the years, Clay and Roesslein have seen athletes grow up on their fields, and take an immense amount of pride in playing some part in getting them to the next level. Whether that’s all the way to the big leagues or just getting to another high school season healthy, the satisfaction is the same. “That’s a super prideful moment,” Roesslein said. “We’ve had some women soccer players play on our field that played in the Women’s World Cup recently. Even if it was a brief thing, they were a visiting team and they were here for one game, that one game I did my job. And she was able to go on and play the next game, and the next, and ultimately make it to the World Cup. That’s pretty stinkin’ cool.” Though we may often miss the intricacies that go into putting on sporting events, Clay and Roesslein can’t afford to miss a single, meticulous detail. And they’ve been recognized for their consistent performance. The Sports Field Management Association named NAAC the High School Soccer Field of the Year in

SUPPORT LOCAL JOURNALISM

DON’T LET YOUR HOMETOWN NEWSPAPERS GO SILENT.

This year, even more than ever before, the news is in crisis. More than 17,000 news media jobs were cut just by June, at national and local outlets including at some of the biggest names like NPR, The Texas Tribune and Gannett. In fact, newsroom layoffs are up 20% from last year. Some of these outlets laid off more than 10% of their staff in the last few months — even as we head into a critical election year. These are devastating numbers. But all is not lost. Many local and independent newsrooms continue to launch across the country. With your contributions and subscriber memberships, small newsrooms like ours continue to grow, adding new journalists and expanding reporting and investigations. We’re committed to bringing the news to Coloradans. That’s because you deserve access to local, independent journalism that keeps you connected and informed — especially during challenging times. This is #newsCOneeds.
