A united Northglenn City Council voted Wednesday night to le an ethics complaint against State Sen. Faith Winter for showing up drunk to an April 3 community meeting
of over 400 people. Winter was invited to the meeting to discuss a controversial move by the state to place group homes in a Northglenn neighborhood that would house convicted sex o enders.
Council members said there was no other way to punish Winter for
her conduct since she is term-limited and can’t be voted out of o ce. Anyone else who showed up drunk to their job would face dire consequences, council members said.
“None of us can show up at a council meeting and be intoxicated,” said Mayor Pro Tem Shannon
Lukeman-Hiromasa. “In some way, shape or form, we would face consequences.
I think we need to send a clear message that you cannot show up to a job in that manner.”
SEE WINTER, P6
In a May 1 letter to the Northglenn City Council, state Sen. Faith Winter apologized for her behavior at an April 3 community meeting attended by over 400 residents and said her conduct that night led her to seek treatment for substance abuse disorder.
“Coming forward so publicly to admit I had a substance abuse disorder has been incredibly scary and hard,” Winter said in her letter which was emailed Wednesday afternoon. “And
I recognize how meaningful leading policy from lived experience.”
Winter’s conduct during the community meeting prompted the city council to consider ling an ethics complaint against the long-time elected o cial. e council is scheduled to vote Wednesday night on a resolution calling for the ethics complaint to be sent to state Senate President Steve Fenberg.
e April 3 meeting was called by Northglenn city o cials to review plans by the state to place a Mental Health Transition Living Facility in a residential Northglenn neighbor-
hood. e facilities were located at 11255 and 11275 Grant Drive.
Neighbors were enraged when they learned the facility would have included convicted sex o enders. Residents complained the sex o enders would be living too close to schools.
e state has since backed o the proposal and indicated sex o enders would no longer be housed at the Mental Health Transition Facilities.
Winter was invited to the April 3 meeting because she represents most of the city of Northglenn in the legislature. Winter also co-sponsored the legislation that created the transition facilities – HB22-1303, according to a city sta report to the city council.
Winter arrived late to the meeting “... and various individuals indicated Senator Winter appeared to have glassy eyes, slurred speech, and some individuals smelled alcohol on her breath, and as a result, she also appeared at various times disinterested, annoyed, and combative,” according to the resolution the city council will consider Wednesday.
After the meeting, several individuals suggested Winter nd a ride home instead of driving, according to a city sta report to the city council.
e next day Winter said she was undergoing alcoholism treatment and apologized for her conduct.
Winter, in her letter, said she was sorry for the discomfort she caused during the Northglenn community meeting.
“I value my relationship with the City of Northglenn and have always prioritized meeting with city leaders to understand policy positions and how to best serve the interests of our shared constituency. My commitment to this community has not wavered for the last 17 years I have served in elected o ce,” Winter said.
“I know the way I showed up at the community meeting was inappropri-
ate and hard for those in attendance. at night led me to seek treatment for substance abuse disorder, which was di cult, especially with the eyes of the world watching, but I’m glad I did,” she states.
Winter said in her letter that while serving in the state legislature, she has worked hard to reduce the stigma of substance abuse disorder, allocate funding to get more people treatment and increase access for all Coloradans to take care of their mental health.
“Along the way of passing policies to support people facing mental health illness, I heard numerous stories of pain and healing. As I heard these courageous people come forward and tell their story in committee, I would tell them I know it is really scary to be vulnerable and your vulnerability is showing up as strength,” Winter states.
“I have had numerous constituents and colleagues reach out to me to share their stories of themselves or their loved ones. ey shared that I have opened the door for them and their loved ones to see safety in seeking treatment and reducing stigma,” Winter states.
“If my pain and the stigma I faced publicly even helped one person seek treatment and nd peace, then I can nd peace myself. I am asking today for empathy from the Northglenn City Council. I, like you, have taken an oath to represent the citizens of Northglenn,” Winter states.
“I, like you, know that the way to uphold that oath is to lift up those in our community who are going through hard times, not tear them down,” Winter states. “Now it is time for my actions to show my dedication to the people I serve. I will continue to work hard to represent the city of Northglenn and our shared constituency with mutual respect.”
Ever since the March 15th announcement by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) that it had reached a settlement on the massive litigation against it regarding buyer agent commissions, brokers and brokerages have been trying to figure out how they can get buyers to sign an agreement of the type required by that settlement.
Such an agreement would have to provide for payment by buyers of the broker working on their behalf, and that agreement would have to be signed before an agent could show the buyer any homes for sale.
with whom I shared Zillow’s agreement last week.
First, since it has not been approved by the Colorado Real Estate Commission (CREC), Zillow’s form can only be used by brokers if it has been prepared by that broker’s own lawyer. Second, it does not contain the required definitions of working relationships.
I asked Waters what new or changed contracts the Division is working on to comply with the provisions of the NAR settlement, and she replied as follows:
Zillow, which is now a brokerage, not merely a real estate listing site, thinks it has produced an agreement which satisfies that requirement and that buyers would be happy to sign. The essence of it is that it is non-exclusive, lasts only seven days, and does not commit the buyer to paying anything.
Although the “Touring Agreement” is copyrighted, the April 30th blog post by Zillow’s Chief Industry Development Officer, Errol Samuelson, states that “we’re making it available for use to the entire residential real estate industry.”
Above right I have reproduced the one-page agreement, omitting only the non-discrimination clause and the signature lines.
In the blog post, Samuelson acknowledged that “the form of this agreement will vary by state, [but] we’re calling on the industry to adopt a non-exclusive, limited-duration agreement for the initial tours conducted by an agent with a prospective buyer.”
Indeed the form does not comply with Colorado state law in two respects, according to Marcia Waters, who heads the Division of Real Estate at the Colorado Department of Regulatory Affairs,
“It is our position that the NAR settlement doesn't require any changes to our forms. With that said, the Forms Committee is working on some possible revisions to the listing contracts, the contract to buy and sell and the brokerage disclosure to buyer to provide further clarification about compensation. Those revisions will be considered by the Real Estate Commission at their nonrulemaking hearing for the forms in June.” That meeting is at 9 a.m. on June 4th. The requirements established by the NAR settlement are now set to take effect on August 17th.
I like the concept of Zillow’s proposed touring agreement, since the NAR settlement only specifies “an agreement.” Having sent it to the Division of Real Estate and also to Frascona, Joiner, Goodman & Greenstein, PC, the law firm which serves Golden Real Estate and hundreds of other brokerages with legal forms not among those mandated by the CREC, I’m hopeful that one or the other of them will produce a “showing agreement” that we can use.
Heretofore, the only guidance brokers had regarding the NAR settlement was that the MLS could no longer display an offer of co-op compensation for listings and that brokers could not show listings to a buyer with first executing a written agreement with that buyer.
Last week we were advised of some additional rules that the MLSs need to follow. Here are the key takeaways.
MLSs may not “create, facilitate, or support any non-MLS mechanism (including by providing listing information to an internet aggregator’s website for such purpose)” that includes “offers of compensation to buyer brokers or other buyer representatives.”
This will be a good year, I believe, for the developers and builders of new homes. There’s a decent supply, you can choose between spec homes that are already built, or design a home to your specifications if you are not in a rush.
You won’t have to deal with bidding wars, but you also won’t be able to negotiate a price reduction. It’s “list price only” with builders.
Also, you can hire a buyer’s agent, such as my broker associates or me, who will be paid by the builder, so you don’t have to pay for professional representation. Too many buyers of new homes end up regretting that they bought from a builder’s salesperson and didn’t have a professional on their side. The builder’s agent is working for the builder and not in your best interest.
lutely must invest in the cost of a professional home inspector. We have an inspector on our team, Jim Camp, who has decades of experience inspecting new homes for buyers. We recommend him exclusively. New construction is permitted and must pass county or city inspection, but, based on the kinds of defects that Jim has found in new homes, we worry that these inspections can be too cursory.
Without such an document agreeable to buyers, we can expect that buyers will only call listing agents to see listed homes. That scenario would serve neither the industry nor the public. Jim Smith
MLS data may not be used “directly or indirectly” to create a platform containing offer of compensation, and, if that is done, the MLS must terminate the access to the MLS and MLS data by the offending broker or brokerage.
Virtually every brokerage has its own website on which MLS listings are displayed. These websites must not, with or without MLS support, filter the display of listings to exclude individual listings based on the level of compensation offered or to exclude listings by specific brokerages or specific listing agents within a brokerage.
Another mistake buyers make is to think that because a home is new, it doesn’t need to be inspected. You abso-
Jim likes to do a 2-phase inspection. The first inspection would be at the rough-in or pre-drywall stage, and the second or final inspection would be prior to the buyer’s final walk-through with the builder.
As when buying an existing home, money spent on inspections is money well spent, because you might uncover hidden defects, from sewer to attic, that could cost you much more later on.
Call me with your questions.

Northglenn City Councils May 1 called for the censure of State Senator Faith Winter, shown in a 2021 file photo. Winter was allegedly drunk when she attended an April 3 public meeting in Northglenn concerning mental health transitional housing. FILE PHOTO
Mayor Meredith Leighty joined eight council members to send the complaint to the o cials in the state senate. Leighty and LukemanHiromasa said senate leaders need to confront Winter’s problem with alcohol.
“ is was not a single incident,” Leighty said. “ ere has been an ongoing history of this behavior. We just cannot continue to look away.”
“We are asking all our state senators to step up and do the right thing,” Leighty said. “Up to now, they have not.”
Winter apologizes
In a May 1 letter to the city council, Winter apologized for her behavior at the community meeting and said her actions that night led her to seek treatment for substance abuse disorder.
“Coming forward so publicly to admit I had a substance abuse disorder has been incredibly scary and hard,” Winter said in her letter which was emailed Wednesday afternoon. “And I recognize how meaningful leading policy from lived experience.”
Council members said they had compassion for Winter and her ght against alcohol. But now is probably the time for tough love, they said.
“If there is a problem, try and identify it,” Councilman Richard Kondo
said. “If you don’t you are perpetuating the culture of acceptance for mediocre behavior.”
City Attorney Corey Ho mann said he did not know how the senate leaders would handle the complaint. is year’s legislative session, he noted, is nearly over.

Road to Recovery program getscancer patients to their treatments without delay
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COMJared Phillips thinks one of the hardest parts about ghting cancer is fretting over whether someone will show up to give him a ride to his treatment. Phillips, who is battling bladder cancer, knows he cannot miss one day of his chemotherapy because it would dramatically cut his chances of surviving the disease. “I would peer out from behind my window shades and hope that the cab or Uber will show up on time,” Phillips said. “If they didn’t…. well…I would be in big trouble. at just added to my anxiety.”’ en, earlier this year, along came the genial Carol Rose, a veteran of the American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery program. Rose and other volunteers provide free rides to treatment for cancer patients who can’t otherwise get to treatment.
“It is something I’ve done for a while and I just feel it’s my way of helping out,” Rose said. “I just wanted to lend a hand. And I like driving the patients and their families, getting to know them. And lots like to tell me their stories.”
Phillips and his wife Jennifer Barnes got connected with Rose through Tammy White Uecker, an RN, and General Cancer Nurse Navigator with SCL Health Lutheran Medical Center in Wheat Ridge. It’s there that Phillips gets his chemo treatments but not before he relaxes a bit in the back seat of Rose’s SUV while enroute to the hospital.
“We don’t have that stress that I might miss a session,” Phillips said. Rose, Barnes added, has become a friend they can rely on for emotional support as well.
“We have never been late, which is such a relief,” Barnes said. “She (Rose) has been a God send.”
Phillips said he is disabled due to mental health issues that prevents him from getting out of his apartment. e couple’s car was also destroyed in a re making them dependent on Rose and her vehicle. e Road to Recovery program is designed for patients just like Phil-
lips, said Uecker. “We have patients who don’t have access to transportation or are homeless, but they can’t miss their treatments,” Uecker said. “ e number one obstacle to getting cancer treatment is access to transportation. Even the best treatment can’t work if a patient can’t get there.” is program helps alleviate their anxiety and calms them down so they can concentrate on their recovery, she said. “My rule is to empower the patients. is program helps them do that.”
Ride scheduling is coordinated online, and volunteers can share their schedule availability based on what works for them, according to the American Cancer Society. Once a volunteer’s schedule is set, drivers can accept ride requests from people in their community who need help getting to appointments.
Nationwide, in 2023, the program provided more than 47,000 rides to treatment, according to the American Cancer Society. In Colorado, 1,400 rides were given last year. Currently, there are 137 active drivers in the state, according to the cancer society.
But there is a shortage of drivers
in Colorado, especially in the north metro area and in the state’s rural areas, said Sara Walla, regional director of regional integrated marketing at the American Cancer Society.
“We need more volunteers so we can help more cancer patients,” Walla said. “Unfortunately, we can’t provide rides to everyone who asks for them. We need more volunteers to change that.”
Rose, 71, said she has learned a lot from quietly talking to patients while she drives them to their appointments. “ ey handle what’s going on with them di erently and I appreciate that. I don’t press them, and if they want to talk, I am happy to have a conversation.”
One patient especially shook Rose. “She was young and well made up and she asked me out of the blue ‘Does it look like I am dying?’ “
“I didn’t really know what to say, so I didn’t say much,” Rose said. “ at’s all you can do sometimes. Is just listen.”

TextMyGov is intended to keep residents informed about street closures, water line breaks, upcoming events, city council meetings and
other events, according to a city news release.
Residents who get an initial text from Northglenn 91896 and do not want the information coming to their phones, can simply reply “stop.”
People who do not get an initial text invitation can opt-in at any time, the news release states. e news release states that the type of text messages residents can receive include general information about the city, city council business, arts and culture and recreation and events.
Residents sign up by texting a speci c phase to 91896:
General – To receive all the city’s text noti cations, including all the categories below, text “Northglenn” to 91896.

e system will not replace Adams County’s CodeRed emergency noti cation system.
Anyone can sign up to get notications from the city, including non-residents, said city spokeswoman Diana Wilson.
“We are promoting it to residents, but I am sure some of the lists will attract subscribers from surrounding areas,” Wilson said via email.
“Hub Cap Annie” was once a xture on Denver’s East Colfax Avenue. It was the alter ego of Jane Withers, known for donning a Viking-style costume — a headdress, horns and long gold braids.
“Who would wear that costume if they didn’t have a sense of humor? I think that’s what I liked about her,” said Chris Stieler, a volunteer at the Littleton nursing home where Withers lived her nal days.
Withers, in her 80s, died on April 25, leaving behind a lively story and a legacy of local fame and redemption.
“She’s di erent from anyone I’ve ever met. She always had a story to tell, but she was always concerned about others,” Stieler said, describing her as “crazy, feisty, wild — but de nitely a caring person.”
Born in Cleveland and raised in Florida, Withers headed to Denver after getting permission to open a Hub Cap Annie store as a franchise, Stieler said. e business sold used hubcaps for cars back when many cars were equipped with the covers for wheels. Her store arrived in the Mile High City in the early 1980s, where she operated the business until 2008, becoming well-known along the way.
She boasted degrees in psychology and nursing from the University of Florida and worked as a registered nurse, but wanted to “start a di erent life, I believe,” Stieler said. Her move west saw her grow enamored with hubcaps.
Stieler, who met Withers nine years ago, once said to her: “If I asked you what the hubcap looked like for a 1964 Plymouth, would you be able to tell me?
“And she was able to,” Stieler said. Her business life took a seedy turn, dealing in stolen hubcaps, Stieler said.
at included getting them “o of cars in the parking lot of Mile High Stadium during Broncos’ games,” Withers was quoted as saying in Car and Driver magazine. After police raided her store in a sting operation, she was charged with a felony and convicted, the magazine wrote. But she pushed on. And she began using her experiences to inspire others, becoming a motivational speak-
er and making it a point to hire employees who needed mentoring and a second chance, according to the LEADER magazine from Life Care, the nursing home company that housed her in recent years.
“I think she always wanted to redeem herself in a sense,” Stieler said. “She sure made up her mind that she was going to be a bene t and help other people.”
She was one of the founders of the Colorado Women’s Chamber of Commerce, and photos show her with former o cials — U.S. senators, Denver Mayor Federico Peña and Colorado governors, Stieler said.
Even when she would slip into confusion amid dementia in her later years, she “would still think she was going to give a lecture that evening, even up to last week,” Stieler said the day after she passed.
“I just thought that was interesting that that was in the forefront of her mind,” Stieler added.
At the Life Care Center of Littleton where she lived and had many friends, Withers will be missed.
Stieler, a 72-year-old former realestate agent, remembers Withers’ irreverent comments and what people around her called “Jane-isms,” Stieler said.
“She’s one of a kind,” Stieler said. “And I’ll miss her sense of humor and her stories and just spending time with her.”
Marker recognizing Je co’s first gold-rush community celebrates 78th anniversary with uncertain future
BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COMOn April 28, 1946, Goldenites both young and old gathered to dedicate a monument honoring “the almost forgotten, but once prosperous
placer camp of Arapahoe City,” according to Colorado Transcript archives.
Students from the nearby Fairmount School collected rocks from the stream for the monument along West 44th Avenue near McIntyre Street. Local civic groups erected it with a plaque explaining how the immediate area was once home to Je erson County’s rst gold-rush community.
Now, exactly 78 years later, the community-erected monument stands behind a fence on private property. Anyone interested in reading the plaque should either bring binoculars or a camera, as the
text is hardly visible from the public right-of-way.
While the state owns the monument itself, it stands on property owned by the Coors Brewing Company.
e area was formerly accessible to the public. However, Coors erected a fence around the property because of recent incidents of people illegally camping on the property and potentially contaminating the nearby canal and lake, o cials explained.
John Stonebraker, vice president of Molson Coors Beverage Company’s Golden Valley Operations, said in an email statement that the brewery erected the fence in conjunction with the Farmer’s Reservoir & Irrigation Company — a nearby stakeholder — and the Je co Planning & Zoning Department. He said the monument remains visible through the fence, and that Golden History Museum & Park had been o ered access on an ongoing basis.
As of April 25, Coors hadn’t responded to the Transcript’s request to elaborate further on its plans for the land surrounding the monument or reinstating public access to it.
Nathan Richie, director of the
Golden History Museum & Park, said he’s received numerous inquiries about the site, but the museum doesn’t o er public tours of the monument. He said Stonebraker’s comment referred to the museum’s ongoing collaboration with the Arapaho and Cheyenne tribes. On a recent visit, Richie said some o cials were interested in seeing sites on Coors’ property in the same area.
So, the museum can request access in special cases like that, he said, adding: “But we aren’t running tours of the site to the public.”
Richie said possible solutions for restoring public access would be working with Coors to move the fence or moving the monument itself. e former could work in the short-term, but the latter could solve two problems simultaneously.
As the name suggests, Arapahoe City “was built on top of an Arapaho village on well-known Arapaho land,” Richie said, adding that the museum’s tribal partners have a wealth of knowledge to share about the area.
If the monument is moved — ideally onto public property in the same area — Richie said it’d be a perfect opportunity to update the plaque to include more of the area’s pre-1858 history.
In fact, History Colorado — the state’s historical society, which ofcially owns the monument — is planning to inventory its 230 markers statewide ahead of the country’s 250th anniversary and Colorado’s 150th anniversary in 2026.
Once inventoried, History Colorado will prioritize markers that need to be moved and/or updated, and work on adding new markers to some historic areas, Preservation Planner Lindsey Flewelling said. e initiative is currently in fundraising stage, but she believed it would start work on Colorado’s
historic markers before 2026 and establish an ongoing maintenance plan after that.
Flewelling anticipated the Arapahoe City monument would be listed as a historic marker that needs to be moved and updated as part of this larger initiative.
She said the monument is in a relatively unique predicament, being so far from public right-of-way that it’s inaccessible on private property. Flewelling said she more frequently hears about situations where a road was widened, leaving a historic marker too close to the right-of-way.
Like Richie, she hoped the America 250-Colorado 150 initiative would provide an opportunity to update the Arapahoe City plaque — and others like it — “to ensure the history being portrayed is inclusive of that fuller history,” she continued.
As the monument plaque de-
scribes, Arapahoe City was o cially organized on Nov. 29, 1858 along the Clear Creek valley east of present-day Golden. George A. Jackson and John H. Gregory stayed there for a time, before proceeding west to strike gold and make history.
In 1860, Arapahoe City’s population was 80.
Past editions of the Transcript describe it as little more than a tent city along the valley. According to Richie, it was one of Golden’s many sister communities like Apex, which were either incorporated into Golden or were essentially abandoned.
e monument was established in 1946, and the bronze plaque was stolen around 2015.
History Colorado replaced the plaque in 2018 for more than $1,200, Flewelling con rmed. e plaque that’s on the monument now is a replica of the one installed in 1946, with the exact same wording, as Transcript archives con rm.
e rock portion has never been replaced, Flewelling said. So, it should still be made of the same stones Fairmount students found almost four score years ago.
As for the land itself, Je erson County archives state the 33-acre parcel at 15950 W. 44th Ave. was sold to the Adolph Coors Company in January 1976 for $2,200. e Adolph Coors Company then deeded the property to the Coors Brewing Company in December 1992.
Richie said there’s nothing “sacred” about the monument’s exact spot. It could easily be moved to another, more accessible spot in the same vicinity and still poignantly convey the area’s history.
He hoped the America 250-Colorado 150 initiative would provide that opportunity.
“Nothing’s set in stone,” he said of possible solutions to restoring public access. “ … But, if we were to envision it over again, how would we commemorate that site?”

Colorado Community Media –made up of 23 publications serving cities and towns in the Denver metro area – is expanding.
e Denver North Star and the G.E.S. Gazette, established in 2019 and 2021 as free monthly publications and digital products, are joining the portfolio. e National Trust for Local News, Colorado Community Media’s parent company, completed the acquisition of those titles on May 1.
e monthly North Star is Denver’s largest neighborhood publication, and the G.E.S. Gazette, which transitioned to digital-only earlier this year, is a bilingual community publication serving the Globeville and ElyriaSwansea neighborhoods. ey are in close geographic proximity to other publications operated by CCM, including the Washington Park Pro le and Life on Capitol Hill.
Community Media Publisher Linda Shapley said. “I’m thrilled to take the baton and do what I can to make those publications even stronger.”
e plan is to soon merge the websites for the North Star and Gazette into Colorado Community Media’s site, which serves as the home for all of CCM’s two dozen titles – including the Arvada Press, Golden Transcript, Parker Chronicle and Littleton Independent, among others.
e publications were owned and operated by David Sabados and his wife, Emma Donahue, and were founded in response to a lack of community media in North Denver, Sabados said. He told the Colorado Community Media sta during a meeting that when they began looking for a buyer for the publications about a year ago, CCM immediately seemed like the right t.
“We took a long look at Denver’s and the state’s media landscape of hyperlocal publications and ended up where we started: when we thought about who we trusted to keep the papers’ community feel and
ensure their long-term viability, we knew they would be in good hands at CCM,” he said.
Sabados and Donahue will serve as advisers to aid in the transition. Editor Kathryn White and others involved with the North Star and Gazette also will continue working with the CCM operation.
“I’ve long been a fan of the Denver North Star and the G.E.S. Gazette, and what David and his team have done for that community,” Colorado
e acquisition of the G.E.S. Gazette is Colorado Community Media’s second publication serving Spanishspeaking audiences. CCM launched its rst bilingual news product in January – La Ciudad, a newsletter in Spanish and English that primarily serves Commerce City. According to the Pew Research Center, 21% of the nation’s 65 million Hispanic adults get their news in Spanish.
e National Trust for Local News, a nonpro t dedicated to acquiring, transforming and conserving local newspapers, bought Colorado Community Media in 2021. In fact, May 1 also was the three-year anniversary of that acquisition.
newsroom wants to know what matters to you this election year
One month ago, newsrooms across the state, including ours, launched an ambitious project: invite the people of Colorado to tell us what they want politicians to talk about in this election, and use their answers to help guide the stories we tell.
So far, more than 3,100 people from around the state have responded to that call and lled out the Voter Voices survey. About 100 of the respondents are readers of Colorado Community Media’s two dozen metro area newspapers. What should candidates for public o ce focus on this year? “ eir integrity, work ethic, and vision for our country or the entity they will be representing,” said Mindy Mohr, a reader from Arvada. Mohr listed “democracy and good government” as a top concern, with abortion and the economy/cost of living as important issues as well.
e Coloradans who lled out our survey so far make it clear they want politicians to discuss issues like the environment, housing a ordability, immigration, health care and education.
In Walsh, on the southeastern plains, a shortage of health care workers is a driving concern for Rita Hetrick. She runs the long-term care facility in the town of roughly 540 people. Instead of drawing on a local workforce, she relies on pricey sta ng agencies. “We don’t have a stream of cash that’s just available when you’re a small, rural facility.”
Hetrick told Voter Voices that state and federal regulations exacerbate the problem and it’s something she wants to see politicians tackle.
Many have also written about their concerns for our democracy itself.
“I want candidates to discuss wholesale reform of our country’s and Colorado’s constitution,” wrote Juan Manuel Ramirez Anzures of
Denver. “We need to overhaul them to incorporate reforms like more seats, instant-runo elections, robust publicly nanced elections, and proportional representation.”
We’re also asking how much condence people have in elections, both how they are conducted in Colorado, and around the country.
e people responding so far are telling us they have great faith in our state’s election system, but a lot more doubt about whether the election will be conducted fairly nationwide.
e Voter Voices survey is being conducted by 60 newsrooms statewide from Fort Collins to Pueblo, Salida and Alamosa and from Sterling and Kiowa to Grand Junction, Durango and Nucla.
As Regan Tuttle, owner and editor of the San Miguel Basin Forum, put it: “My community is very remote and rural. ey tend to feel that nobody listens. I felt the survey would give them a chance to speak and
feel heard …”
e project is led by the nonpro t Colorado News Collaborative (COLab) and CPR.
e survey will remain open through this year’s election campaigning, as newsrooms continue to record their communities’ priorities and present what we learn to our readers and listeners.
e goal is not only to respond to what Coloradans statewide and locally say matters to them in our election reporting, but also to challenge candidates to respond directly to voter priorities and concerns.
We invite you not just to ll out the Voter Voices survey, but also to pass it on; share the link with others you know whose opinions we should hear. Colorado Community Media and its two dozen newspapers across the Denver are participating. You can take the survey at: https://modules.wearehearken. com/cpr/embed/11600/share
The touted state legislation HB-1313’s fate is coming down to the wire in the state senate.
As most of you know, this bill is the controversial land use bill which would authorize the state government to dictate high density apartment developments in transit corridors (both bus and light rail). is would be usurping decision making of locally elected city councils and boards of county commissioners who know best about compatible land use matters and the will of the people.
e bill previously passed the House of Representatives on a 3724-4 vote. e state legislature must adjourn by midnight, May 8. So, by the time you read this column, the bill will likely have been decided –either passed or failed.
e authors of the bill erred in various ways, but the most obvious was that the bill would breach the protected home rule status of all Colorado municipalities.
Home rule powers were enshrined in the state constitution 100 years ago and are taken very seriously. If they are successful, what might the governor and controlling Democrat legislators take away next?
A second error is the punitive way
RTD should go away
Governor Polis wants to reduce the size of the RTD board of directors and change its composition. Bill Christopher wants to reduce its size and change its composition too. But Christopher doesn’t want to reduce the size of the board by as much as Polis does, and his preferred composition is slightly different.
Changing the size and composition of RDT’s board is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. RTD is going to poorly serve our transportation needs regardless of the size and composition of the board.
the bill addresses non-compliance by any towns or cities in the impact areas: Not complying would mean forfeiting their share of the Highway Users’ Tax Funds.
For decades, towns and cities have relied on tax monies from HUTF from the state. It has been a sharing of tax revenues among CDOT, municipalities and counties on a xed distribution formula. Often, it is the major portion of revenue for municipalities and counties earmarked for vital road maintenance, major streets and bridge construction and other street-related costs.
In Westminster’s case, the HUTF funds amount to a signi cant $4 million this year.
It is a poor tactic to hold these funds over the head of local governments! is is really playing “hardball” by Governor Polis/Democrat legislative leaders.
State government is attempting to shift decision-making
It is never good to have one po-
Embarrassingly few people use RTD — even when the fares are reduced to zero. Why would they? To
litical party in total control of both houses of the legislative branch. en when you throw in the executive branch of the same political persuasion, you can get “double trouble.”
In Colorado, we are in the thick of double trouble this legislative session where there are not any checks and balances.
I would say this regardless if the Democrats or Republicans were in the power seats: It is not healthy or wise to have this at play. As we have seen this session, the Democrats have gone overboard with plenty of progressive legislation. If you only analyze the package of bills all under of the banner of “a ordable housing”, my point is made.
Besides the extreme measure of the state usurping local land use decision-making regarding transit corridors, there has been other related legislation. As mentioned above, the deletion of any limit on the number of non-related people living in a dwelling unit was approved and will take e ect July 1.
Next, is the deletion of speci c ostreet parking requirements with new development. Letting the developer decide will impact adjacent existing residential areas. en there is Auxiliary Dwelling
Unit (ADU) mandates which will override local ordinance prohibition or requirements. ADU’s have a place in the a ordable housing strategy book, but their impact will be so miniscule in the overall impact to resolve needed a ordable housing. What makes Governor Polis and the Democrat legislative leadership think they have all the answers? ey need to stay in their lane as there are plenty of signicant issues and problems to solve at the state level!
If you have followed the saga of abating the environmental issues at the ornton Shopping Center, you know that it has already become a drawn-out a air.
Too often, such issues involving private property owners evolve into expensive, drawn-out, procedural e orts. After the city was not successful in getting the cooperation of the retail center’s owner, the property was acquired through eminent domain. Subsequently, the city has moved ahead with relocating the then-existing tenants and began on the next phase, “Asbestos/Demolition/Environmental.”
be exposed to secondhand smoke from methamphetamine users?
To be assaulted in an RTD station, bus, or train? To have their car stolen when it’s parked at an RTD Park-n-Ride? To catch a pathogen from another passenger? To take ve to ten times longer to get where you’re going if RTD even goes to where you need to go?
RTD is a zombie organization that will keep performing poorly forever no matter how much money we throw at it. e best thing we could do with RTD is terminate it, and either return the tax dollars to the taxpayers, or invest the money in roads.
For those who can’t a ord to buy a car or cannot drive, there are rideshare services such as Uber and
Lyft. We could even use some of the savings on RTD to pay for rideshare vouchers for the indigent. And we should de nitely legalize private bus service.
Chuck Wright, Westminster
Our HD34 representative, Jenny Willford, says she prioritizes families, but her actions tell a di erent story. She advances the agenda of a small, loud group of extremists, at the expense of the well-being of everyone else. If mainstream Democrats and Independents knew about her behavior, they’d join me in questioning her positions.
Rep. Willford supports bills that call for medically harming gender-
confused children, and for interfering with parents’ ability to care for their own kids. Just two examples of the bills she supported this year:
- House Bill 24-1017 “Foster Care Bill of Rights” removes genderconfused children from foster parents if the parents do not provide “gender-a rming care”: puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries like mastectomies.
- House Bill 24-1039 “Non-Legal Name Changes” requires schools to use a child’s “preferred” name and pronouns, with no parental noti cation. If a child is experiencing gender confusion, why does the state want to keep that information from parents?
Beyond the bills she supported, Rep. Willford opposed measures like HB 24-1092, “Minimum Sentence Crimes Against Prostituted Children.” Why? Because adult pedophiles are former victims who should be protected, not punished. Take a look not at what Rep. Willford says, but what she does. You’ll nd she’s out of step with your values.
Vicki Quintavalle, orntonEnd fossil fuel investment
When it comes to climate change, Coloradans are feeling a queasy blend of hope and frustration. We know we have the technology to solve climate change, but fossil fuel interests are slowing us down. Across Colorado’s Front Range, we keep hearing that our main utility, Xcel Energy, is making great strides toward zero-emissions energy, but at the same time, Xcel keeps doing confusing things that shake our trust and make it harder for individuals to lower our own carbon footprint.
Nowhere is this more true than in Xcel’s Clean Heat Plan, where state law requires regulated gas utilities to reduce their climate-warming emissions 22% below 2015 levels by 2030.
Xcel’s is the rst utility to submit a CHP to Colorado’s Public Utilities Commission. In it, Xcel proposed o sets, which, unfortunately, don’t
work to reduce emissions from their gas, or “certi ed natural gas.
ere’s a reason certi ed natural gas was not among the “clean heat resources” lawmakers listed to reduce Colorado’dependence on fossil fuels; it takes credit for leak reduction in the oil and gas industry, not in Xcel’s supply system.
Xcel has now retreated from its preferred plan but still wants us to pay a premium for natural gas so they can continue to sell it and pipe it into our homes, where it will continue to pollute both indoor and outdoor air, compromising the health of Coloradans through respiratory and heart disease known to be caused by emissions.
Xcel’s backup plan is to invest in just as much gas as before and to charge extra for some private ventures—, one of which Xcel is an investor in.
It’s also concerning that to keep pipes in the ground and to justify laying new ones, Xcel is proposing blending hydrogen into the gas supply and sending it to homes and businesses. Like their certi ed natural gas proposal, Xcel’s hydrogen proposal won’t help reduce emissions, but hydrogen blending risks increased hazards and even more cost to Xcel’s customers.
Xcel’s customers should not be forced to continue investments in fossil fuels and their delivery systems when cheaper, safer and better options are now available that use the electricity grid we already have.

How Cinderella City shaped the modern mallBY ELISABETH SLAY ESLAY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
escribed as a “city under a roof” by devoted amateur historian Josh Goldstein, Cinderella City in Englewood was once one of the largest and most innovative shopping malls in the country.
Created by developer Gerri Von Frellick, Cinderella City opened for business in 1968 and was mostly demolished in 1998. Its history, though short and controversial, helped shape the foundation of the modern mall.
“I think it was well known in the
mall and shopping center industry that Cinderella City was more than a mall, and that was seen by a lot of different people, and who knows how that was taken by generations of urban planners and architects and developers,” said Goldstein, who works as an architectural software engineer.
“ ere were a lot of good and bad things from this mall that we should take as lessons.”
The history
Jack Bu ngton, program director for supply chain management at the University of Denver, said the evolution of American shopping malls began after World War II.
“A highway system was built in the United States and people started moving out in the suburbs and then the rst generation of malls came about, which were strip malls,” Buington said.
In the 1970s and 1980s, a timespan during which Cinderella City was operating, the more traditional style of malls came into the picture.
“Instead of being a strip, it was a single facility, typically cornerstoned by a big department store like JCPenney or something like that,” Bu ngton said.
Goldstein said it took eight years to actually open Cinderella City, as it replaced Englewood’s “beloved city park” and many residents didn’t see a need for a massive shopping center.
Once opened, however, in the rst half of its life, Cinderella City, or “New Englewood,” was a bustling enclosed metropolis.
Divided by color into ve sub-malls so it would be easy to navigate, the space was essentially a rainbow of activity and amenities, some unique to the times, including a large event space, grand fountain, hundreds of
retail shops, o ce space, a massive parking deck and more.
“Cinderella City encapsulated the idea that a mall could be more than a shopping center,” Goldstein said. “It was the biggest mall Von Frellick had built and I think for just a little bit it was the biggest mall in the country, possibly the world.”
Goldstein said the project was also very community-focused as it had outposts of the Englewood Police Department, re department and high school and it featured permanent handprints and busts of locals who helped make the project a reality.
“So it did really well and it did make the splash and impact that was intended,” Goldstein said. “It really made it feel like it was for the community by the community.”
Goldstein said by 1974, the mall accounted for 52% of Englewood’s revenue.
“ ere’s a funnel of stores and activity from Broadway into the shopping center and I think this is when it became evident that they may have created a monster,” Goldstein said.
By the 1980s, despite an attempt at saving the structure that had some minor success, Cinderella City would fall into decay and disrepair due to years of maintenance neglect, competitors and changing times.
Goldstein said the event space was changed, the fountain was removed, retailers began to leave, o ce space was left vacant, the massive parking deck crumbled and crime at the mall increased.
“ ey made a monster,” Goldstein said. “ ey made this thing that was so big and it’s great when you rst build it, but then 10 years down the line, where’s the money going to come from to maintain the repair and replace?”
Bu ngton said in the late 1990s and early 2000s, large stores like Walmart started replacing the traditional mall because it was one store that could o er almost everything at lower prices in a singular location.
In 1998, after discussion and redevelopment plans, Cinderella City was mostly demolished, except for the part that became Englewood’s city hall, and eventually transformed into a transit-oriented development.
Goldstein was driving by with his parents and became interested in the history of the project.
“ ey spoke of it so fondly and I couldn’t quite rationalize the discrepancies between what I was seeing outside the window, which was just absolute destruction and sadness and a big empty hulk where you could see into its innards, and then what they were telling me how amazing, and colorful and fun and enjoyable the mall was in the 1970s,” Goldstein said.
It was Cinderella City that actually inspired Goldstein to go into the architectural software industry.
In 2024, nearly 26 years after its demise, the only structure left standing from Cinderella City is the three-story Englewood Civic Center. Goldstein said this building was a department store attached to the once massive mall.
‘Paradoxically behind the times’
“(Cinderella City) was ahead of its time and it did do good things for the community, but it also in other ways was paradoxically behind the times and did bad things for the community,” Goldstein said.
It cost millions of dollars for the city to demolish the mall and over the years, the area has seen redevelopment but not at the scale of Cinderella City during its heyday, Goldstein said.
“At the time local governments didn’t really know how to handle this, but I think the City of Englewood was faced with a pretty unprecedented situation,” Goldstein said.
Cinderella City was one of the rst
“I think it was a precursor to a lot of other malls that have since fallen,” Goldstein said.
He said Cinderella City wasn’t a sustainable project. It was shaped like an M and had many levels so it could properly t on its property. However, Goldstein said this was an issue for long-term evolution.
“To some degree, Cinderella City wasn’t going to redesign itself out of its own problems because it was inherently a problematic layout and design,” he said.
However, Goldstein said, some aspects of the mall were positive and innovative measures that are seen in modern trends.
e biggest feature was Cinderella City’s Cinder Alley, which was a connection of pathways to various small shops where up-and-coming artists or crafters could sell their goods.
“I think the mixed-use part of it and the community-oriented part of it and the hyper-local part of it are good lessons to take away,” he said. “I am unsurprised that that is a trend and probably always will be a trend, and Cinderella City just happened to get there rst.”
ese days, Bu ngton said malls are all about experience and how to engage consumers.
“If we talk about today, malls are becoming these multipurpose experiential models where there is more of a community,” Bu ngton said.
He explained a big factor into the future of what a mall-type facility looks like now is commercial real estate. ere are di erent types of real estate including o ce, retail and
industrial, said Bu ngton, who explained that numbers are down for these separately.
“So what a lot of these commercial real estate developers are trying to do is to try to manage these vacancies to make things multipurpose,” Bu ngton said.
Goldstein spent years researching the Cinderella City project and for the last few years has worked to create an immersive digital exhibit featuring the project, which will be in the Englewood Historic Preservation Society’s new museum. e exhibit will feature a simulation Goldstein has created to pay homage to the project that inspired his career and passion.
“ e simulation is Cinderella City in two di erent eras,” he said. “So, Cinderella City as it appeared in 1968 and the other time period is 1988… You can time travel and you can see what that very same spot looks like 20 years in the future.”
Goldstein said he really wanted to feature the two lives of Cinderella City in both the simulation and the museum exhibit.
As of press deadlines, the museum was slated for a soft opening on May 4.
“(It’s) the life it lived after it was built and the life it lived shortly before it died,” Goldstein said of his simulation.
Bu ngton said technology will inuence how future versions of malls will look for customers.
“ e new model has to be experiential,” Bu ngton said. “It really comes down to innovation.”
Hearing the name “ e Full Monty” probably conjures up a very speci c set of images for most people. Namely, six men whom you wouldn’t think of as strippers doing just that. And to be honest, it’s not like the story isn’t about that.
But as Nick Sugar, director of the musical version at Miners Alley Performing Arts Center, explains it, stripping is by no means the only thing the show is about.
“ ere are several journeys going on in this show — not just the men, but the women who have been there alongside them the whole time,” he said. “People are going to show up expecting one thing and they’re going to leave saying, ‘I didn’t see that coming.’”
“It really does touch on a lot of social issues in a sneaky way,” added
David Nehls, music director. “It deals with the way see ourselves as men, homophobia, misogyny and body image.”
“ e Full Monty” runs at Miners Alley, 1100 Miners Alley in Golden, through Sunday, June 2. Performances are at 7:30
p.m. ursday through Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday. e show is rated R and recommended for audiences 18-years-old and older.
Based on the 1997 British lm, this musical version has been Americanized and takes place in Bu alo, New York. It follows six unemployed steelworkers who need to make
some money fast, so they decide to put on a one-night-only strip show.
e cast includes Rory Pierce, Annie Dwyer, Alejandro Roldan and Kelly Alayne Dwyer.
e show is the rst musical in Miners Alley’s new location and it’s the perfect place for this show, which features live musicians playing all the music written by David Yazbek.
“ ere are live, professional musicians playing what audiences are hearing and these guys work so hard,” Sugar said. “It takes a village to put a production like this on and everyone has come through to gure out how to best do this on the new stage. We just couldn’t do the show with the integrity the script calls for in the old space.”
e musical numbers might be the show-stoppers, but the book, writ-
ten by Terrence McNally, gives every character a true personality of their own and allows them to grow as the show unfolds.
“It’s great seeing people come together in adverse situations, which is something we can all relate to now,” Nehls said. “I think the stage show has more heart than the lm.”

Despite testimony that one Colorado lawmaker called “horrifying,” a bill to ban the practice of shutting students alone inside rooms was defeated at the state Capitol.
State Rep. Regina English, a Colorado Springs Democrat and the main sponsor of House Bill 1167, asked last week that her fellow lawmakers postpone the bill inde nitely, e ectively defeating it.
With just days left in this year’s legislative session, English said the

e city council previously established a project budget of $10,572,795 to clean up the site and achieve new land uses.
bill was experiencing too much lastminute pushback from defenders of the practice known as seclusion. ough English didn’t name names, a handful of school district and special education administrators had defended the practice to lawmakers in a hearing last month.
e administrators described seclusion as a “last resort” measure that is sometimes necessary. English pledged to introduce a new bill banning seclusion next year.

When a site has the combined issues of eminent domain and environmental mitigation, it is highly likely that the project demands considerable patience by all involved parties. e city’s Economic Development sta is heading up the various components of this dual e ort.
First ring suburbs such as ornton, Westminster, Northglenn, Federal Heights and Arvada are faced with blight and the need to take action if the property owners fail to do so. Too often, the owners do not have thenancial wherewithal or motivation to achieve environmental clean-up and undertake redevelopment.
at is where municipalities need to come in using urban renewal powers and resolve the issues. Everyone needs to be patient and appreciate the complications of the tasks at hand and the possibilities of nal costs being higher than initially thought.
One of the pieces of Governor Polis/ Democrat legislative leadership legislative package to tackle homelessness and achieving more a ordable housing has been to eliminate local governments’ existing limitations on non-blood related roommates sharing the same dwelling unit.
e Governor has called these restrictions such nasty names as “archaic and discriminatory.” He even referenced the current city laws as being in violation of civil rights.
Roughly two dozen Colorado municipalities currently have such restrictions. Such limits have especially been helpful in college towns like Ft. Collins and Boulder where too many guys live together under the same roof and like to party too much and/ or not maintain the property adequately.
When there are situations where excessive noise, excessive cars parked in the yard or excessive trash existing, the limitation on the number of non-blood roommates can be a wel-
comed-tool to resolve the neighborhood problem.
e new law takes e ect on July 1 and prohibits municipalities from having such restrictions in their municipal codes. While it is hard to estimate the number of people who will gain “a ordable housing” from this law, it has been touted as one of the package of new laws nding their way through the state legislature this session to help achieve a ordable housing.
Being from Missouri originally, you will have to “show me.”
Reintroduction of wolves was stupid Voter approval to re-introduce wolves in Colorado was a bad idea. Plus, it should not have been stuck in our state constitution.
Too many city-liberals in Colorado do not know or appreciate the dangers and potential impact to ranchers with wolves roaming around. Yes, I know that the state will reimburse ranchers for cattle killed by wolves. But why have to go through this rigamarole in the rst place?
Too many calves and cows have already been victim to the carnivores. Eventually, a human being might be attacked and killed by a wolf. What does the state pay on that reimbursement?
Plus, let’s remember when the state reimburses the rancher, it is the taxpayers of the state who are paying this cost.
City liberals in Colorado will always outnumber the farmers and ranchers on the Western Slope, but let’s not do a knee-jerk vote on some special interest’s e ort to put another initiative on the Colorado ballot. In fact, some sensible group should take up the cause of repealing the subject section in the state constitution.

e girl loves to move — cycling and snowshoeing and swimming — but when seizures grip her body, the movement stops.
Her heart rate soars above 170 beats per minute and her blood oxygen level plunges below 70%. She gasps for air. She hunches forward. And when the seizure clusternally ends, sometimes many minutes after it began, she looks over to her mother, kneeling beside her, and whispers, “Mommy. Scary. Scary.”
Heather Kluck, who lives in Colorado Springs, calls her 12-year-old daughter, Avery, “my miracle child.” When Avery was diagnosed as an infant with a rare genetic condition called Aicardi syndrome, doctors told Heather and her husband that Avery may not survive her rst year and would likely never walk or talk. She de ed those predictions, though she has signi cant developmental delays.
But the miracle is fragile, and the seizures, which have been getting worse as she nears her teen years, could end it. To help quiet the seizures, doctors have recommended that Avery start on a drug called Sabril, a powerful anticonvulsant that can cost as much as $10,000 per month.
Because of that extraordinary price, Sabril is on the radar of a Colorado board seeking to control the cost of prescription drugs. e Prescription Drug A ordability Board, or PDAB, reviews whether drugs are una ordable and has the ability to set caps on what patients and insurers have to pay for them.
To Kluck, though, this could be a curse to patients. If the caps cause pharmaceutical companies to pull their drugs from Colorado — something at least one company has already threatened — or causes pharmacists to stop stocking them, then patients like Avery might end up harmed.
And, so, Avery has not yet started taking the drug that may save her life. Kluck worries: What if she begins and then we can’t get it anymore? What would happen if Avery
had to quickly stop a drug that is notably dangerous to wean o ?
“We’re to a point now where her seizures are getting more violent, and this is our last resort,” Kluck said. “And now I’m nding out she may not have access to it.”
Colorado lawmakers created the PDAB three years ago to address a persistent problem: A big chunk of Coloradans aren’t taking their medicines because they can’t a ord to.
e most recent edition of the Colorado Health Institute’s Colorado Health Access Survey found that nearly 11% of people in 2023 did not ll a prescription because of cost. at number has remained more or less unchanged since the survey began in 2009.
“ e original goal of the PDAB is to increase access to drugs,” said Hope Stonner, a policy coordinator at the Colorado Consumer Health Initiative, which supports the PDAB. “Folks aren’t taking drugs because of cost.”
ere are a handful of states that have created PDABs to address rising drug costs, but Colorado’s may be the furthest along. Last year, the board began conducting reviews of speci c drugs to determine whether they are una ordable — a task made all the more di cult because some patients may pay very little for a drug and others, especially those who are uninsured, may pay a huge amount for the same drug.
If the board does declare a drug una ordable, it can then move to set a so-called upper payment limit, which would cap how much patients and insurers have to pay for a drug — and e ectively limit how much a manufacturer or a pharmacist can charge. No PDAB in the U.S. has ever done this, but Colorado’s is currently debating whether to become the rst to set a price cap, on the arthritis drug Enbrel.
Pharmaceutical companies are opposed to the PDAB. Enbrel’s maker, Amgen, sued Colorado this year to strike down the PDAB’s authority. But people who su er from rare diseases — or, like Kluck, care for those who do — surprisingly have emerged as some of the most passionate opponents of the PDAB’s
work. ey are not opposed to the idea of the PDAB, they say, and they are not defending the price of their drugs. Instead, they say the PDAB has brought stress into lives already full of it.
eir concerns center on the potential unintended consequences of the PDAB’s actions. Would their drugs become unavailable? Would manufacturer assistance programs that many patients rely on to pay for their drugs dry up?
“It’s an experiment, and it’s really gross that they’re doing it on people who are really sick,” said Jennifer Reinhardt, a Littleton mother whose daughter lives with cystic brosis and relies on the drug Trikafta.
Last year, the PDAB considered whether to declare Trikafta unaffordable, and members of the cystic brosis community organized in force to tell the PDAB not to. ey told of how Trikafta, a breakthrough therapy, had improved lives. ey worried they may have to move out of state if a PDAB-imposed price cap meant the drug became unavailable here.
Along the way, Trikafta’s manufacturer, Vertex, seemed to validate their fears when it wrote in a letter to the PDAB: “Given the national market architecture for drug pricing, as a consequence of the PDAB’s rules,
manufacturers subject to an (upper payment limit) may have no practical choice but to withdraw from Colorado.”
Ultimately, the PDAB decided not to declare Trikafta una ordable, citing Vertex’s patient-assistance programs. But the feeling of trauma lingered for patients.
“It was so torturous for our family,” Reinhardt said.
Others, such as Kluck, say that just the potential for a PDAB review causes them stress.
Avery’s new anti-seizure medication, Sabril, is currently ranked 114th on the PDAB’s list of 604 drugs eligible for review. Given that the PDAB has only completed three a ordability reviews in its three years and may set upper payment limits on at most 18 drugs in a year, it could be years before it gets to Sabril, if ever. (Due to her disability, Avery is covered by Medicaid, meaning her family would not have to pay for Sabril now and a price cap would not directly bene t them.)
For a family dealing with a serious disease, that is still too much uncertainty, Kluck said. Every seizure Avery has is life-threatening. Kluck, as Avery’s full-time nurse and caregiver, is almost always by
her daughter’s side — her entire life organized around protecting her child’s health.
“We shouldn’t be playing with people’s lives,” she said.
Patients championed a bill at the state Capitol this year that would have exempted so-called orphan drugs — designated by the Food and Drug Administration as treating rare diseases — from a PDAB review. at bill stalled amid concerns it would wipe out a huge swath of drugs eligible for review, but supporters have launched a petition hoping to revive it.
A compromise bill, Senate Bill 203, which would require the PDAB to consult with rare disease advocates before selecting drugs for review, appears headed for passage. But Kluck and other patients worry it doesn’t provide enough protection.
e bill had its nal committee hearing approaching the closing days of the session. Kluck said she didn’t learn about the hearing change until after it happened — and Avery had a doctor’s appointment, so she couldn’t have attended on short notice anyway. No one showed up to testify on the bill.
e state’s Division of Insurance, which oversees the PDAB, declined to make board members available for comment. Division sta also declined to comment, citing the pending lawsuit.
During a con rmation hearing earlier this year at the state legislature, Amy Gutierrez, a pharmacist who serves on the PDAB, defended the board’s work.
“We need to do a better job at educating the public that what we’re trying to do is to help them,” she said. “It’s not to create a barrier.”
Gutierrez accused pharmaceutical companies of fearmongering, something that Stonner, the CCHI policy coordinator, echoed.
“Frankly, that’s a bully tactic, and I think that shows the need for the board in the rst place,” she said.
Stonner said the board, which is made up of doctors, pharmacists and health care administrators, has been moving thoughtfully and carefully. It is common to hear even opponents praise board members’ earnestness.
She said the board is also highly responsive to patient feedback. It conducts patient surveys and holds patient stakeholder meetings before it even begins to conduct an a ordability review, with more opportunity for comment after that.
“ is idea of drugs becoming unavailable raises some questions when you’re sitting at the table and understanding the thoroughness,” she said.
But patients have also raised concerns that the mechanics of the supply chain, not the whims of pharma companies, could lead to unintend-
ed consequences. An upper payment limit applies only to what the nal purchaser — patients, insurers or both — pay for a drug. So what happens if pharmacists have to pay more to get a drug than they can charge a patient to buy it, thus forcing them to sell the drug at a loss?
When Gutierrez, who is the chief pharmacy o cer for UCHealth, asked that question during a meeting last week, board sta provided no guarantees, instead promising a thorough review to help the board make the best decision.
“When you all decide on the upper payment limit, you will have a lot of this information in front of you,” Lila Cummings, the PDAB’s director, told Gutierrez.
To Kluck, that kind of answer brings no comfort. She said she understands that prescription drugs are too expensive — one of the major contributors to rising insurance costs. She understands that people deserve to be able to a ord their medication.
She doesn’t understand how her family got caught in the middle of it.
“Why take the risk of putting people’s lives at stake if you don’t need to?” she said. “ at’s what we’re all not understanding.” is story was printed through a news sharing agreement with e Colorado Sun, a journalist-owned nonpro t based in Denver that covers the state.

Community based gun violence initiatives will get top priority for the grants
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COMColorado is making grants of up to $100,000 available to non-pro t groups in education, health care and tribal organizations for programs that emphasize the prevention of gun deaths and violence.
e Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s O ce
of Gun Violence Prevention are providing the grants for organizations to “conduct community-based gun violence initiatives focused on interrupting cycles of gun violence, trauma, and retaliation,” according to a news release.
e total funding period is July 1, 2024- June 30, 2026, with another year of renewal potential through 2027, according to the news release.
In deciding what groups get the grants, the O ce of Gun Violence Prevention will focus on programs that emphasize the safe storage of rearms and counseling to reduce access to methods for suicide.
Other programs that look to reach
youth a ected by gun violence and to interrupt plans for retaliation will also be considered, according to the O ce of Gun Violence Prevention.
Applicants who focus on projects educating the public on Extreme Risk Protection Orders will also be given priority.
Extreme Risk Protection Orders is a legal form of temporary outof-home gun storage that restricts access to guns for individuals who have demonstrated they are at risk of harming themselves or others, according to the O ce of Gun Violence Protection.
e o ce is encouraging applications from organizations that
advocate or serve the priority communities most impacted by rearm homicides and suicides – Black, Latino, Indigenous, People of Color; LGBTQIA+ communities, youth and young adults; veterans; middle-aged men; and isolated rural communities, the OGVP states.
As many as 10 grants may be available, ranging between $50-$100,000 per awardee.
A grant review committee will pick the top prospects before June 30, 2025.

She plans to study business and looks forward to the culture of her new home campus.
“Minnesota State was the best school choice for me because it provides the balance of academics, athletics and culture I was looking for,” Sydney Pippert said. “It is a place I truly believe I can grow as an athlete while also getting a degree that will set me up for my future.”
Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge.
Horne plans to study physics and chemistry at the next level.
“I chose MIT as it is a strong stem school where I will be able to pursue my passions for both chemistry and physics,” Horne said.
Tegan Medina smiles after signing her letter of intent to play softball at Colorado Mesa University.
Staying home was a priority for this softball star. Medina will be attending Colorado Mesa University in the fall.
She plans to study psychology.
“Colorado Mesa had everything I was looking for with school and ath-

ARVADA — Ralston Valley’s girls tennis team is attempting to make history.
Cherry Creek has absolutely dominated the girls tennis state landscape winning 39 largest school state team titles since 1976. Fairview
— Class 5A team title in 2016 — is the only other school that has won the 5A team title other than Cherry Creek since 1997.
Ralston Valley in is position to break Creek’s current state championship streak. e Mustangs are the No. 1 seed for the 5A girls tennis team state tournament. Ralston Valley advanced to the semi nals
Friday, April 26, cruising to a 6-1 victory over No. 8-seeded Regis Jesuit at the Apex Tennis Center.
“ ese girls have been working for the last couple of years knowing down the road that this opportunity might be here,” Ralston Valley coach Kim Greason said of the Mustangs on the brink of playing for a Class 5A girls tennis team state title.
Ralston Valley will host No. 4 Rocky Mountain in the semi nals Tuesday, May 7, at the Apex Tennis Center. Je co Public Schools has never won a largest school girls tennis team state title. D’Evelyn has captured four Class 3A state team titles in recent years.
The dais was a little crowded on April 25 at Fort Lupton High School. And with good reason.
Five athletes signed their letters of intent to move on to the world of college athletics.
“It’s something that, when you start in sports, you always dream of,” said FLHS athletic director Richard Jacoby. “I’m looking forward to seeing what these athletes can do at the next level.”
Anastacia Salazar prepares to sign her letter of intent to attend Northwest Kansas Technical College on April 25.
All it took was a visit to Northwest Kansas Technical College in Goodland, Kansas, for her to make her choice.
That and the option to compete in two sports: softball and wrestling
“We would love to not only represent Jeffco, but all the other schools that haven’t had that chance to have the opportunity to grab that first place (trophy),” Greason said. “Battling Creek all the time is tough. They are still strong even being the No. 2 seed. They are going to be dialed in.”
In the other side of the state tournament bracket, No. 3 Valor Christian took a 5-2 quarterfinal win over Fossil Ridge on Friday. The Fairview at Cherry Creek match was postponed until Monday, April 29. The state championship team match is scheduled for May 14 at the Denver Tennis Park. Being in new territory at the No. 1 seed is something Ralston Valley has embraced.
“We talked lot about that,” Greason said of the Mustangs holding the top seed. “One of the girls came up with the quote from Billy Jean King, ‘Pressure is a privilege.’ I feel like our girls instead of feeling like it’s pressure,
“I met the softball coach and I fell in love with her,” Salazar said. “I went to the campus. The campus was absolutely amazing. I love small towns. It’s smaller than Fort Lupton. I met her a year ago. She kept in contact with me, trying to get me to go there.”
She considered Penn-State Mont Alto (“We decided that was too far”). She also thought about Lamar Community College in Colorado and Seward Community College in Kansas. But neither of those schools offered softball, which is Salazar’s main sport.
Salazar wants to be a medical assistant.
“Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve liked helping people,” she said. “I want to do my part and help people as much as I can.”
She’s scared to leave home.
“But I’m ready,” she said. “I’m excited. It’s going to be complicated (competing in two sports). But I can do it.”
Camren Galicia
Camren Galicia is all smiles in advance of signing his letter of intent to attend Otero Junior College.

they have earned it and now they have to own it and prove it.”
Spearheading the Mustangs’ lineup is No. 1 single players and senior Ally Lowe. The lefty actually clinched Ralston Valley advancing into the state semifinals with her straight-set victory over Rebecca Gelfer on Friday.
Lowe has been Ralston Valley’s No. 1 singles player since her freshman year. She is already a 3-time individual state qualifier advancing to the at least the quarterfinals each season.
“The team title is probably more important to me than an individual title,” Lowe said. “It has been Cherry Creek for the last several years. It would be really nice if we won it.”
Lowe has only lost three matches all season while holding down the No. 1 singles spot.
“She (Lowe) faces the best-of-thebest every match and she brings it,” Greason said of Lowe. “She is right there in the top four of the girls in the state I believe.”
Sophomores Emerson Bonner (No. 2 singles) and Scarlett Lutz (No. 3 singles) round of the Mustangs’ strong singles line-up. No. 1 doubles team of
wrestling career at Otero Junior College in La Junta, Colorado. The decision was easy.
“They were the first college to offer. They showed me around the town,” Galicia said. “It reminded me of Fort Lupton. Everyone knows each other right away. I knew I would fit in right away. I’m ready to grow up.”
He wants to become a counselor.
“A lot of my friends ask me for advice,” he said. “I give them advice, and they are like, ‘You should be a counselor.’ I thought I’d try it out. I try to help out everyone I can. I want to do that for a career.”
Galicia admitted to a combination of apprehension and nerves as he awaits his next chapter.
“I haven’t been away from my mom for a long time,” he said. “But I’m ready.”
Payton Faulhaber
Faulhaber opted to play volleyball at Bethel College in North Newton, Kansas.
“It’s out of state and it’s small,” Faulhaber said. “I like the volleyball program. I love the small community here. And it’s a religious school. It’s going to be a smaller school. It’ll be
Adia Farling/Cass Gordon are in their second year playing together that has helped to make them a strong force.
No. 2 doubles Parker Lucas/Kylie Engleman, No. 3 doubles Tay Farling/ Sofia Eola and No. 4 doubles Elaina Roboff/Kate Decker finish out the line-up for the Mustangs.
“This is probably the deepest team we have had in a number of years. We are very fortunate,” Greason said. “I put it on the girls. They have worked very hard in the off-season, playing year-round, playing tournaments, doing camps and clinics. I think that is what it takes nowadays, to have yearround players.”
This is the second year where the Colorado High School Activities Association has separated the team state title from the individual state tournament. Until last year, the team champion was determined from how many points teams accumulated during the individual state tournament.
“I like it a lot better,” Lowe said of the new team tournament state format. “You get to play teams as a team, instead of as individuals at the individual state tournament.”

Ralston Valley will host the 5A Region 3 tournament May 1 and 2 at the Apex Tennis Center next week. The Mustangs should qualify all seven of their positions to the individual state tournament May 9-11 at City Park in Denver.
“I feel like we are all playing super well right now,” Lowe said as the Mustangs prepare for regionals next week before the team state semifinal showdown against Rocky Mountain on May 7.
Fort Collins, Cherokee Trail, Horizon, Douglas County and Northglenn will be the other teams in the regional with Ralston Valley.
“It is tough, and you throw in the weather too,” Greason said of the busy next few weeks for the Mustangs on the tennis court. “There is a lot for these spring sport athletes to handle. Our girls have been balancing it really well.”
Only time will tell if Ralston Valley can balance its way to history and a state title.

e sources of electrons owing into about 290,000 suburban and rural homes and businesses on the Front Range are about to change. And while refrigerators will still hum and lights shine, it marks a new chapter in how Coloradans get their electricity.
e state’s two largest cooperatives, Sedalia-based CORE Electric Cooperative and Brighton-based United Power, are each poised to leave their long-time power suppliers and strike out on their own in the growing merchant power market.
“United and CORE and a few others are large enough where we can contract with utility-scale resources where the prices are driven down,” said Chris Hildred, power supply director for CORE, formerly the Intermountain Rural Electric Association.
“ is is about local control andnancial independence,” said Mark Gabriel, United Power’s CEO. e rst big step comes as United Power, which serves about 300,000 people in an area from Commerce City through Adams and Weld counties, leaves the Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association.
CORE, serving more than 375,000 residents in parts of 11 counties from west of Colorado Springs to east of Denver, is set to nish its contract with Xcel Energy at the end of 2025.
“ e arrival of inexpensive utility-scale solar and the arrival of inexpensive utility-scale batteries has changed the landscape for coops,” said Seth Feaster, an energy data analyst with the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis.
“ e great thing about solar is coops scale it to their needs,” Feaster said. “ ey can keep it local and they don’t need a big coal plant in another state anymore.”
Rural cooperatives traditionally bought their electricity wholesale in bulk from large generation and transmission associations, created to serve the co-ops, or an investorowned utility, like Xcel Energy. ose purchases account for 60% to 70% of the cooperatives’ budgets.
But with more independent power suppliers and the opportunity to build their own smaller-scale projects, cooperatives have more options, said Robin Lunt, chief strategy o cer at Guzman Energy, a power wholesaler, which has been instrumental in the departure of several co-ops from Tri-State.
“ ere’s increasing opportunity
for the distribution utilities to look at the market and decide how they want to design their power supply and customize it to the community they serve,” Lunt said.
Guzman will supply United Power with about a third of its energy needs in a 15-year contract when the co-op leaves Tri-State.
e departures come with risks as the cooperatives now must strike a series of contracts with di erent providers for power to replace that single source with large generation and transmission resources.
At its April 3 annual meeting, TriState CEO Duane Highley outlined the association’s investments to provide 5,300 megawatts of generation for its member co-ops spread across Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico.
“ is is real reliability; this portfolio cannot be matched,” Highley told the meeting. “It is a hedge against market prices. … We know there’s going be less and less surplus capacity, and it’s going be a time of greater stress on the grid.”
e departing cooperatives also are leaving power providers regulated by state and federal agencies for less transparent private operators, Tri-State spokesman Lee Boughey said.
“ e risk has always been there,” CORE’s Hildred said, pointing out that Xcel Energy has passed on costs it has incurred and is undertaking big projects — including a $2 billion Power Pathway transmission line and a proposed $15 billion clean energy plan — which will end up in customers’ bills.
“We will have control based on market prices our members are exposed to rather than the decision Xcel makes over which we have very little in uence,” Hildred said For United Power, Tri-State posed
two problems. As its largest member, representing about 20% of its revenue, United Power was carrying a disproportionate amount of the association’s overhead, in essence subsidizing smaller co-ops. “ ese cross-subsidies have to stop,” Gabriel said.
Second, Tri-State’s 50-year contracts require its cooperatives to buy 95% of their electricity from Tri-State thwarting local power projects.
Other cooperatives have chafed at these restrictions with two already having left — the Kit Carson Electric Cooperative, in Taos, New Mexico, and Delta Montrose Energy Association in southwestern Colorado.
Tri-State has responded by developing more renewable generation, which will reach 70% of its total by 2030, and by developing a contract that will enable co-ops to develop their own power projects.
Still, when United Power leaves, so will the Northwest Rural Public Power District, in Hay Springs, Nebraska. Mountain Parks Electric, in Granby, will leave in 2025 with a 20-year contract with Guzman Energy. Durango-based La Plata Electric Association also voted in March to leave Tri-State. e departures trim Tri-State to 38 members and cut the association’s revenues by more than 25%.
United and Tri-State clashed over plans for a local co-op battery project and now that it is leaving, has embarked on projects such as a oating solar array on the Fort Lupton water treatment plant reservoir.
“We are going hyperlocal,” Gabriel said, trying to line up projects in or close to United Power’s service territory.

Early Notice and Public Review of a Proposed Activity in a 100-Year Floodplain and Fringe Wetland
To: All interested Agencies, Groups and Individuals
This is to give notice that Adams County has determined that the following proposed action under Economic Development Initiative, Community Project Funding, and Miscellaneous Grants (Federal Award Identification Number B-23-CP-CO-0284) is located in the 100-year floodplain and an area of fringe wetland, and Adams County will be identifying and evaluating practicable alternatives to locating the action in the floodplain/wetland and the potential impacts on the floodplain/wetland from the proposed action, as required by Executive Order 11988, in accordance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 Subpart C Procedures for Making Determinations on Floodplain Management and Protection of Wetlands.
The project purpose is to create additional recreational opportunities and enhanced outdoor value for patrons of the Adams County Fairground including construction of the Veterans Memorial Amphitheater and its associated support facilities (lawns, paths, parking), including a stage, seating area, restroom facility, additional parking lot, paved entry/drop off loop, and concrete and crushed fines gravel pedestrian pathways. The project also proposes a stormwater detention pond and turf grass lawns. The proposed estimated $5 million project will have a footprint of approximately 3.7 acres located completely within the 100-year floodplain, and the total number of acres of wetland to be impacted are 0.004 acres. The proposed project is located at 9665 Henderson Rd. in Brighton, CO, Adams County.
There are three primary purposes for this notice. First, people who may be affected by activities in floodplains/wetlands and those who have an interest in the protection of the natural environment should be given an opportunity to express their concerns and provide information about these areas. Commenters are encouraged to offer alternative sites outside of the floodplain/wetland, alternative methods to serve the same project purpose, and methods to minimize and mitigate impacts. Second, an adequate public notice program can be an important public educational tool. The dissemination of information and request for public comment about floodplains/wetlands can facilitate and enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks and impacts associated with the occupancy and modification of these special areas. Third, as a matter of fairness, when the Federal government determines it will participate in actions taking place in floodplains/wetlands, it must inform those who may be put at greater or continued risk.
Written comments must be received by Adams County at the following address on or before May 24, 2024: Adams County Parks, Open Space, and Cultural Arts Department, 9755 Henderson Road, Brighton, CO 80601 and (303) 637-8009, Attention: Cyndi Stringham, Manager of Planning, Design, & Construction. A full description of the project may also be reviewed from 8AM-4:30PM at the same address as above. Comments may also be submitted via email at cstringham@adcogov.org.

As for the risks of the new business model — United Power has signed 23 power purchase and battery agreements, including one to buy wholesale power from Tri-State — Gabriel said it is up to the cooperative to manage that through its contracts.
“ ere have to be guarantees that electricity is provided … one way or another,” Gabriel said. e co-op is requiring some contractors to post bonds.
So, what do the new power supplies look like?
e centerpiece of CORE’s plan is a 20-year contract with Invenergy, a multinational power project developer, to provide electricity, including 400 megawatts of new solar and wind energy and 100 megawatts of battery storage, backed up by 300 MW of existing natural gas resources starting in 2026.
CORE is partnering with another co-op, Glenwood Springs-based Holy Cross Energy on a new 75-megawatt solar array in Arapahoe County. e
“It is my mission to make sure Colorado is the ninth state in the nation to ban this horri c practice used against our students,” she told the House Education Committee in April. e committee voted unanimously
cooperative also signed a contract with Onward Energy for extra natural gas- red generation.
“We are contracting for individual resources of 350 MW in total wind, 200 MW of new solar on top of 190 MW existing, and looking to add batteries in the system in a year or two,”
Hildred said.

and contracts, including ones with the Western Area Power Authority for hydropower and an agreement with Xcel Energy to take some renewable power.
Among its contracts are agreements for approximately 230 MW of solar and 300 MW of other renewables and 440 MW of natural gas.
One 25-year agreement is with Whetstone Power for the output from its 30 MW Solar of Alamosa project starting in May. “ at solar is going to come to us from the San Luis Valley over an Xcel transmission line and go right into a battery,” Gabriel said.
Under another 25-year agreement United Power will get the electricity from a 150 MW solar installation being built in Morgan County by NextEra Energy Resources.
To help handle the generation assets United Power has hired e Energy Authority, a Jacksonville, Florida-based nonpro t company that manages and aggregates electricity loads for public power providers.

After four years of sparring before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which oversees Tri-State, the commission set a formula for calculating exit fees. Using that formula, Tri-State put the net exit fee at $627 million.
e cooperative is still challenging part of the calculation, Gabriel said, but has a funding agreement in place for the $627 million.
Gabriel said that while the aim is for rates to stabilize over time and then trend down, the exit will have an impact raising rates 9.5%, for a $12 to $14 increase a month for a residential customer.

As our state suffers from a housing crisis that is essentially a humanitarian crisis, the need for strategic action has never been more urgent. The State Senate's proposed Strategic Growth Bill (SB-174) represents a missed opportunity, so it is imperative that we pass HB-1313, the legislation mandating increased density near transit hubs. Only by embracing measures that enable new housing to be built can we hope to alleviate the severe shortage of housing plaguing our communities.
Littleton has been at the forefront of regional discussions regarding transit-oriented communities, recognizing the vital role of public transportation in fostering sustainable development. The recent decision by the Littleton City Council not to oppose the transit-oriented community bill reflects this community’s commitment to urban planning and collaborative efforts that meet the documented needs of the city and region.
The correlation between transit accessibility and housing equity cannot be overstated. By concentrating new homes near transit hubs, we not only address the pressing need for housing but also empower residents with expanded transportation choices.
This isn't merely about building more homes; it's about expanding opportunities and freedom of movement for all members of our community.
While the majority of Front Range voters supported the bond question to enable FasTracks twenty years ago, the realization of the light rail’s full potential has been hampered by local zoning restrictions and so-called “growth limits.”
Cities like Aurora, Denver, and Lone Tree have embraced transit-oriented development, while many suburban cities and towns have resisted such changes. The result is that the metro area continues to grapple with traffic congestion, dangerous air quality, disappointingly low transit ridership numbers, and ever increasing housing costs.
Take, for instance, the case of Aspen Grove shopping center in Littleton. Initially a thriving retail center, located immediately north of the Mineral Avenue light rail station, its vitality has waned due to a lack of nearby residential density. It was understood by the developers that it would succeed financially because of its proximity to all the people living and working in Highlands Ranch. Now that Highlands Ranch is built out and the Park Meadows Mall continues to draw people from miles around, Aspen Grove
has struggled with high vacancy rates for years because of so few shoppers living in close proximity.
The recent proposal to redevelop it into a mixed-use neighborhood with significant numbers of housing units above retail was met with resistance fueled by fear of change and new neighbors. The outrage was led by already-housed people living in large, covenant-controlled homes who claim to want more housing, just not in a spot that might inconvenience them. The proposed number of homes was dramatically reduced (this is a phenomenon happening across the country - hence, skyrocketing housing prices) and therefore won’t likely make a significant, positive impact for the retail center or light rail ridership numbers. Enabling developments that put more homes in close proximity to transit and retail represent precisely the kind of forward-thinking solutions we need to solve the housing crisis and sustain local economies.
The reluctance of some municipalities to embrace transit-oriented development underscores the necessity of state intervention. Local control, while important, has too often resulted in a self-perpetuating cycle of housing scarcity. Typical zoning and
subdivision regulations have prevented denser housing development in suburban communities across the nation since the early 20th century. It's time for the state government to step in and ensure that communities across Colorado have the tools and mandates necessary to address our housing crisis comprehensively.
Littleton, along with other smaller suburbs, has struggled for decades to meet the growing demand for housing near transit. Passing legislation mandating increased density near transit hubs is not just a matter of convenience; it's a moral imperative. We owe it to our residents to enact bold, visionary policies that will pave the way for a more equitable and sustainable future.
Vibrant Littleton advocates for the passage of HB-1313. Only by embracing this bill can we hope to overcome the challenges posed by Colorado's housing crisis and build a brighter tomorrow for all.
