Housing proposal at odds with Wild Animal Sanctuary
BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
An attorney representing two landowners in Weld County is accusing the supporters of an iconic wildlife sanctuary of issuing death threats against the two women for resurrecting plans to put a housing development on 40 acres of land adjacent to the facility.
Jeremy Brett Daz Fletcher also says that recent comments made by Pat Craig – executive director of Wild Animal Sanctuary near Keenesburg – via social media posts criticizing the development could be libelous and are interfering with an earlier contract between the sanctuary and landowners. e death threats have also been elded by real estate agents handling the sale of the eight home sites, said Fletcher
in his letter to Craig.
“As we have expressed in our earlier statement,” Fletcher states in the letter, “we were saddened and disheartened that you chose to proceed in the manner you have. at statement remains true.”
Craig rejected the claims about death threats from backers of the sanctuary and an o er from the development group to sell the acreages to the sanctuary for $4 million.
ere is no proof anyone has threatened the two owners – Sherry Boris Wigaard and Velois Smith – nor their agents, said Craig, who opened the 33,000-acre sanctuary over 31 years ago.
“Who really thinks someone is going to travel to Florida and try to nd these ladies to hurt them? Our core demographic is women 45 and older, with most having
Masters or PHD’s and (who) are wealthy. Is that the kind of crowd that threatens to kill other women?” Craig said.
Craig said via email that Fletcher has not acknowledged the two women refused to communicate with the sanctuary for nearly seven months.
“Everyone seems to skip over this important fact. Had they been willing to keep the lines of communication open we would not be in this position today,” Craig said.
He also termed the buyout o er as ridiculous as the owners - who live in Florida - are not trying to cover their expenses or even the projected sales of the sits. ey originally o ered the land to the sanctuary 10 years ago for $2 million. “We couldn’t a ord that either,” Craig said.
Thornton opts out of land use lawsuit
Thornton still supports plainti s in their fight for local land use control
BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COTLN.ORG
e City of ornton is not joining six other home rule cities in a lawsuit that claims new state laws and Gov. Jared Polis are usurping their authority over local land use issues.
ornton is still backing the cities in their e orts to keep local control over decisions related to growth within the boundaries of those cities, Mayor Jan Kulmann said recently.
“ ornton fully supports the plainti s in the lawsuit, and we will continue to evaluate how we can best help their e ort,” Kulmann said via email. “City Council believes it’s important to sustain the rights of our residents to be able to have a voice in land use decisions in ornton.
“We also oppose the Governor’s e ort to preempt Colorado’s Home Rule Authority laws in ways that take away cities and towns’ power to make decisions on how their communities are affected by development,” she said.

Northglenn flocks to goats in Open Space
City’s Goat Encounter attracts
3,000 to Oscar Arnold Nature Area
BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COTLN.ORG
Saturday at Oscar Arnold Nature Area within Northglenn’s North West Open Space was a good day for seven-year-old Bennett Unwin and his dad Ethan. Bennett was able to gently stroke a big tortoise slowly making his way around a pen at the city’s third annual Goat Encounter. Later, he was headed for a larger enclosure to meet and possible feed members of a herd of 300 Spanish goats. About 3,000 other people had the same idea Saturday, all clamoring to see some real goats – not the Greatest Of All Time variety ballyhooed by ESPN – but those with real, important jobs.

For parcels under ve acres in size,
there would be no public hearings on dense housing proposals, the local governments said in a joint statement.
e lawsuit also challenges an executive order issued by Gov. Jared Polis that threatens local governments with withholding more than $100 million in funds if they don’t comply with a series of housing laws enacted in the last two years. Greenwood Village Mayor George Lantz said in a recent statement that the actions of state lawmakers and the gov-
ernor are attempts to set aside the rights of residents in home rule cities to chart local growth without government interference.
“We’re seeing a steady erosion of our citizens’ ability to control the communities in which they live,” said Lantz in his statement. “ e urry of legislative proposals continually eroding our home-rule rights applies a top-down, one-size- ts-all approach, removing all their uniqueness. e state doesn’t care how cities have carefully planned their communities, nor how the state’s particular vision of land use will a ect our cities and the people living in them.

e Goat Encounter, she said, is a free educational event where the public is able to interact with the goats, said Keeney. In addition to the goats, the city invites multiple local animal rescues and sanctuaries to bring out their wildlife for a fully rounded “animal encounter,” she said.
“As park rangers, we strive to educate the public on safe and responsible ways to interact with wildlife,” she said, “plus the added bene t of highlighting the wildlife experts and heroes among us.”

A spokesperson for the governor said the housing policies are in place to combat Colorado’s acute housing shortage.
“It’s disappointing to see certain local governments that have among the priciest homes in Colorado use taxpayer money on a lawsuit that could go toward lowering the cost of housing. It’s clear this lawsuit is about preventing more housing from being built that Coloradans can a ord,” the spokesperson said according to Colorado Politics.

What I’ve Learned About Why Condominiums Are Getting Harder to Finance
Four years ago on June 24, 2021, part of a 12-story condominium building in Surfside, Florida, collapsed at 1:14 a.m. killing 98 residents and injuring 11 others.
But that’s only one event that has contributed to the increasing difficulty of selling and financing the purchase of condos across America.
Primarily because of severe weather, especially hail storms in Colorado, master insurance policies have gotten more expensive and their deductibles increased dramatically. When the deductible in a master insurance policy exceeds 5% of the insured value, units within a condo association become “non-warrantable” according to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines — and over 90% of all loans are sold to those federal agencies after closing and must therefore meet those guidelines.
home for first-time homebuyers who are less likely to have that much cash. They could also go to a “portfolio” or “non-QM” lender, but those lenders don’t typically offer the low down payments of conventional or FHA lenders.
by a single entity
Fewer than 35% of the units are the primary or second home of the unit owner (FHA only)
The HOA has inadequate reserves
Every lender has its own condo questionnaire that must be completed by the association property manager. The questionnaire addresses the numerous concern areas of the lender. The loan could be rejected if:
Master insurance deductible is over 5%
Commercial space exceeds 35%
More than 15% the unit owners are 60 or more days delinquent on HOA dues
A construction defect lawsuit is pending Less than 10% of the HOA budget is allocated to reserves
There’s a lot of deferred maintenance
FHA does a lot of this analysis for lenders and will provide a 3-year certification which lenders can rely on, but the application process is tedious and many condo associations fail to apply for or renew their certification.
That FHA lookup website is https:// entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/condlook.cfm
Here’s what the screen looked like when I searched for the Centennial condo featured with a price reduction in last week’s ad:
Sometimes it’s hard to know whether a unit is a condo or a townhome. The simple distinction is that a townhome owns the land under it, but even a standalone home could legally be a condo.
Buyers can pay cash, of course, but condos have long been considered the entry-level
More than 20-25% of the units are owned
NAR Dilutes Its Rule Against Hate Speech by Realtors
In the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder by a Minneapolis cop in May 2020, and the heated rhetoric, much of it racist, which followed, the National Association of Realtors enacted a “standard of practice” to go along with Article 10 of the NAR Code of Ethics, which bars Realtors from denying professional services based on “race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.”
Inspired by demand for social change and an unprecedented number of complaints received by NAR relating to discriminatory conduct and language by Realtors, the Board approved Standard of Practice 10-5 with language that expanded Article 10 to include the prohibition against harassment and hate language generally and not just limited to a Realtor’s professional life.
SOP 10-5 was implemented by the NAR Board of Directors on Nov. 13, 2020, and read as follows: “Realtors must not use harassing speech, hate speech, epithets, or slurs
based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.”
Here’s the new language, which no longer enforces that rule on Realtors’ communications or actions outside their business life:
“Realtors, in their capacity as real estate professionals, in association with their real estate businesses, or in their real estaterelated activities, shall not harass any person or persons based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.” (Emphasis added.)
SOP 10-4 continues as follows:
“As used in this Code of Ethics, harassment is unwelcome behavior directed at an individual or group based on one or more of the above protected characteristics where the purpose or effect of the behavior is to create a hostile, abusive, or intimidating environment which adversely affects their ability to access equal professional services or employment opportunity.”
The search showed that this condo is approved by FHA for the 3-year period beginning July 24, 2023.
Although regulators have determined that the buyer’s agent, not the listing agent, is obligated to check whether a condo is FHAapproved, a responsible listing agent should, in my opinion, do the simple search described above and not list “FHA” as acceptable financing if the community is described as “rejected” or “expired” on that website.
Even if the website shows the association as approved, the lender will still require the long-form questionnaire from the association and study the budget, declarations, bylaws and more before approving a loan, so the lender should request those documents as soon as possible after the buyer goes under contract — certainly within a week.
The legal description can sometimes mislead a lender, broker or buyer as to whether they’re dealing with a condo or a townhome. Typically, the legal description should refer to a “condo declaration” and not have a “block and lot” description that is more appropriate to a parcel that includes land. Some legal descriptions which include the word “condo” are in fact townhomes, and vice versa. The title company can quickly research the full legal description and answer that question, which becomes critical to obtaining loan approval. Another clue would be if the association is on the FHA condo lookup database.
Back to the subject of insurance coverage and deductibles, a buyer who purchases a condo as a primary resident or second home should get an HO-6 “walls-in” condo insurance policy which includes a “loss assessment” endorsement, which would pay for the deductible which is assessed to each unit owner as the result of a hail or other claim. The annual cost of such a policy is far less than the insurance policy for a single-family home and can save you up to a 5-figure special assessment from the condo association. If the master policy does not include roof, exterior, etc., the unit owner should purchase a more expensive HO-3 policy instead of the HO-6 policy.
FHA is favored because of its low downpayment requirement — as little as 3.5% — but with a higher down payment it’s possible the lender will only require a “streamline” review, which is quicker and less expensive. That requires a minimum 10% down payment for a primary residence and 25% for a second home.
It’s important for a buyer to hire an agent experienced in condo purchases and who can refer you to the best lender.

No charges against deputy for 2024 shooting
Deputy Lane Paintin shot a man four times after the suspect fired on neighbor
BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COTLN.ORG
Adams County Sheri ’s Deputy Lane Paintin will not face criminal charges for the Feb. 18, 2024 shooting of Francisco Cruz, who had shot a weapon at his neighbor and refused to a deputy’s command to stand down just before Paintin red his weapon.
e shooting at 340 West 80th Avenue was investigated by the 17th Judicial District Critical Incident Response Team, led by City of Brighton Police Detective Valerie Rolf and City of ornton Police Detective Fred Longobricco, according to a decision letter issued Tuesday by 17th Judicial District Attorney Brian Mason. Based on the evidence presented in the shooting, “there is no reasonable likelihood of success of proving the elements of any crime beyond a reasonable doubt against the involved o cer,” Mason said in his letter. “ erefore, no criminal charges will be led against the law enforcement o cer (Paintin) involved in this incident.”
Firing gun while drunk Cruz told deputies on March 20, 2024 he was “extremely intoxicated,” according to the letter. He recalled ring his gun while he was drunk but thought that he was alone in his driveway and claimed that he did not re at anyone.
“He recalled the police yelling at him to drop the gun and raise his hands, but that he did not have the gun and could not raise his hands because he was too drunk,” Mason said in his letter.
Cruz was charged with attempt to commit murder in the rst degree for the shooting incident, Mason said. He later pleaded guilty to assault in the second degree and was sentenced to six years’ probation.
Deputies said they responded to 340 West 80th Avenue just before 5 p.m. on Feb. 18, 2024 on a report of a gunshot wound. Once patrol deputies arrived at
the location of the call, they contacted the homeowners who said that no one was shot but their next-door-neighbor, Francisco Cruz, red a handgun at them and struck their home.
Cruz retreated to inside his home after the shooting, Mason said.
After establishing a perimeter around the home where Cruz was believed to be located, Paintin – using his car as cover –drew his gun and pointed it at the front door as he repeatedly gave commands directed at Cruz to exit the residence.
Within minutes, Cruz emerged and stood in the front doorway of the home
with the door open, Mason states. Cruz refused to comply with orders to walk out and show his hands. One of the deputies announced: “He’s got a gun in the right pocket, gun in the right pocket.”
Within moments, Paintin stated, “If he reaches again, I’m shooting him.” Seconds later, Paintin red his handgun at Cruz four times, striking him in the chest. After the shooting, a K9 o cer removed Cruz from his residence, and he was transported to a hospital where he was treated for his injuries.
Neighbors told deputies Cruz had a history of getting drunk and confronting them. He also was known to carry a black handgun in a holster in the back waistband of his pants. On the day of the shooting, Cruz told a tenant to come over to him. When the tenant refused, Cruz red a round from his handgun at the tenant but missed him and hit a bucket in the front porch of the residence, Mason said.
Paintin told investigators deputies conrmed there was enough information to arrest Paintin for attempted murder. Paintin drew his weapon, pointed it at the residence, and gave commands in English and Spanish to the occupants of the home to exit with their hands up, Mason said.
Paintin saw Cruz reach to his right side a second time, prompting the deputy to believe Cruz was reaching for his gun. Paintin re at Cruz four times.
“Deputy Paintin explained that at that moment, he considered the male had already red a gun at the neighbors trying to kill them, he believed that the male was about to draw the gun and re it at him and the other o cers standing in the road,” Mason said.

Fears of being forced out
e sanctuary is home to over 550 animals including lions, tigers and bears. ey were rescued by Craig and others from mostly roadside zoos and basements and were badly abused by the people who kept them in captivity. In 2023, sanctuary o cials rescued animals held at the abandoned zoo in Puerto Rico, which drew international attention. e sanctuary largely depends on donations to help with the sanctuary upkeep and rescue work.
Craig fears that the housing development and the resulting complaints from homeowners will eventually force the facility out of the area.
“When we moved to rural Weld County 31 years ago, there were wheat elds and open farmland for miles around – with the nearest house miles away,” Craig said.
But as more people moved into the area around the sanctuary complaints started piling up.
“Year after year we would see people moving here with romantic ideas of what life would be like living next to a wildlife sanctuary – but eventually coming to terms with some of the realities that exist,” Craig said.
e issues that come with living near the sanctuary, according to Craig, include; e thousands of seagulls that scavenge food and y to adjacent properties where they sometimes drop or leave food behind…. And poop on buildings, cars and houses, said Craig. e bald eagles (21 of them) that stay here yearround and scare people who think they will snatch up their “little foo-foo dogs or cats,” Craig said. e smells from the animals (they consume 100,000 pounds

People often shoot o guns and highpowered ri es near the sanctuary dispensing thousands of rounds of ammunition just yards away from animal habitats. Fireworks are also set o near the sanctuary borders, Craig said.
Homeowners also host parties where people come up to the fences at night to make noises and shining ashlights at the animals.
“ is has resulted with us nding beer cans and trash in the habitats in the next morning,” Craig said.
Weld County made the property owners, and the sanctuary enter into a contract as one of the conditions for approving the development ten years ago, Craig said,
e requirements included building a tall privacy fence to be built along the common border between the subdivision and the Sanctuary’s property. A 20foot bu er from the privacy fence would prevent any building in the zone, Craig said.

three-person board of directors for the development’s HOA.
“ is was intended to help give a seat to a sanctuary representative so we could help manage certain behaviors or acts that might negatively a ect the sanctuary,” Craig said.
e sanctuary also required an inperson interview with any prospective buyer, Craig said.
“ is was required so a sanctuary representative could be open and honest about the historical issues that had already caused issues – just so the people considering a signi cant purchase would have a chance to hear the potential issues they could face,” Craig said.
e two women signed the contract in 2011 but then ended up moving to Florida not long after the approval was given by Weld County. In 2024 they suddenly resurrected the project without contacting the County to inform them of the new work being done.
Craig said when the sanctuary sta noticed the construction began in mid2024, he contacted the women and their Realtor.
In a meeting, the women expressed how they did not want to follow several of the contract terms.
“ ey stated the interviews might scare o potential buyers, which we responded that all we cared about was making sure people were realistic when considering a purchase,” Craig said via email.
e property owners also did not like the requirement that the sanctuary could help pick any replacements on the HOA’s board of directors.
“We explained that once they were either gone or moved away, the sanctuary would still need a pro-sanctuary person on the board,” Craig said.
Marketing is underway
e women have since declined to meet with Craig to iron out the outstanding issues with the contract. In the
“…We utilize goats for both noxious weed mitigation and wildfire mitigation, eliminating the need for any herbicides or petroleum powered mowing equipment,” Keeney said via email. “The goats actually prefer the broadleaf vegetation (noxious weeds) over the grass.”
meantime, Realtors are marketing the development as being so close to the sanctuary.
“Now open! Boasting a prime location in Keenesburg and showcasing an impressive array of new homes with open layouts and designer details, Vista West is a must-see for house hunters in Weld County. Residents will appreciate close proximity to Fort Lupton, Brighton, e Wild Animal Sanctuary and Denver International Airport. Several thoughtfully designed ranch- and two-story oor plans are available, some of which o er RV garages. You’ll love our professionally curated xtures and nishes!” says an online advertisement.
Fetcher’s letter says that Craig will receive notice of every meeting of the association and that the developers are “committed to a long-lasting relationship with the Wildlife Animal Sanctuary.”
Julie Marshall, Colorado Director for Animal Wellness Action, blasted the move by the developers.
“ is is a most egregious example of thoughtless, non-collaborative development against local Colorado values. ere will be undeniable damage to longstanding wildlife protections, local business and statewide Colorado values,” said Marshall via email.
“ e Wild Animal Sanctuary is an integral and cherished part of Colorado, and Pat is our hometown hero, who has spent decades to create what is undeniably the world’s most successful and renowned sanctuary like no other,” Marshall said. “Local children and families go here year-round to marvel and be educated about lions, tigers, bears, wolves, bobcats and a host of wildlife — every single one saved from the thoughtless, sel sh acts of humans. Weld County Commissioners must ensure these out-of-towners adhered to their own signed contract with government and stand strong to support our local icon.”
“So, the goats eat the weeds rst then subsequently the grass, which creates a rebreak before reaching our residential areas. A Win, Win!” Keeney said.
e city uses Goat Bros, a locally owned and operated Colorado goat land management contractor, for the weed control program.
Feedback on proposed new roadway improvement fee is needed
Westminster has known for some time that it has fallen short on generating su cient annual revenue to maintain its streets and bridges at a high level.
With the huge jump in the cost of asphalt and other road oil-based products, the funding gap has only widened. As one of the key components to the city’s 2026 budget, the city council is looking at a new framework on how to equitably generate more earmarked funds for street maintenance and construction. e goal is to develop a plan that will generate $26 million per year. Currently, sales and use taxes generate $6 million, external funds such as Highway User Tax Fees produce $7 million and the city’s current Roadway Improvement Fee brings in $4 million. is leaves a funding gap of $9 million.
Sta developed a proposed fee system that utilizes tra c generation as the basis for charging a monthly fee. e current $6 monthly fee is imposed against all residential and non-residential categories on an equal basis. Clearly, the businessrelated categories have had a “good deal” regardless of how much tra c they have generated. e $6 fee has remained the same for the past 10 years, while street maintenance costs have mushroomed. is means the street costs have had to be subsidized more from the General Fund rather than a speci c earmarked fee.
New roadway improvement fee based on tra c generation e proposal to generate more funds for street maintenance and construction would have all residential categories pay $8 per month, which would be a $2 jump. en there would be four categories based on tra c generation, starting with Retail: Superstore, which carries a monthly fee of $250. Next would be Retail: High Tra c at $150 fee and then Retail: Moderate Tra c at $100 per month.
A category of “Other Commercial” would be established for any remaining businesses. An “Out-of-City Retail/Manufacturing” would impose a monthly fee of $25. is framework would produce

Bill Christopher’s recent article champions local control over land use decisions, yet this stance stands in stark contrast to his professed concern about urban sprawl. His framing of the housing crisis – and the solutions o ered by state legislation –overlooks the fact that his favored policies cause the sprawling development he laments.
His article shows how advocates of absolute local control are failing to meet the challenges of our housing crisis. e idea that housing a ordability isn’t a shared responsibility misunderstands the broad scope of our current housing crisis. When individuals and families struggle to nd stable housing, it impacts the economic health and social vitality of our entire state, including our local communities. is isn’t an abstract issue; it’s a fundamental challenge that demands compre-

If approved by the city council, the new framework would go into effect on July 1, 2026. e city is building in time for outreach to both the business community and residents to garner their feedback.
A second component of the plan is to increase the fee each year based on in ation. Council had a variety of thoughts and positions on whether to include the in ation increase for the next ve years. So, be looking for opportunities provided by city o cials to give your feedback on this proposal.
Clearly, the city needs to decide on some means to generate more revenue to keep up with the growing costs of adequately maintaining the streets and bridges.
73rd Avenue Tavern decision is soon to be made
It’s been a long haul bringing all the needed information together on whether the City of Westminster should move forward with Barquetine Brewing Company on their tavern proposal.
Converting the former Valente Super Market, which has sat vacant o and on for years, into an attractive neighborhood meeting place for meals and/or beer is a tall order. However, the neighborhood has said time and time again that their #1 priority in the Harris Park area is a restaurant. Such an attraction could have a positive in uence on the whole area along 73rd Avenue.
You can see the thinking of the neighborhood. e area needs a good positive “shot in the arm” if it is going to return to a vital area.
e fundamental questions that will be staring the city council in the face in a week or two are twofold: will the tavern have the appeal and regular draw to sus-
As I’ve stated previously, it comes down to how important it is for the city council, the neighborhood and the tavern owner/ operator to give this concept a try. Is it worth a $1 million investment? Can you see your way clear at $2 million? What should be the top-end amount that the city can justify investing in? Remember, the city has not done a due diligence study to see what it would take in return-on-investment for the city to come out even.
Or perhaps, given the historic building and its prominence on 73rd Avenue, the return-on-investment should be downplayed.
What do you think? It’s your tax money.
Where are the City Council candidates?
Westminster is experiencing a drought when it comes to city council candidates for the upcoming November election. ere will be three city council seats and the mayor’s seat to ll.
Both incumbent council members Obi Ezeadi and Sarah Nurmela have led to run for re-election. Council member David DeMott is term-limited, which makes the third seat up for grabs. However, he is one of three candidates running for mayor.
Mayor Nancy McNally could seek another term but has decided not to do so. So there is the open mayor’s seat. e other two candidates for mayor include former council member Bruce Baker and current council member Claire Carmelia. She is in the unenviable position of still having two years on her current council term of o ce should she not win the mayor’s seat.
Usually by now, there would be more than enough candidates who would have led and be doing fundraising. So, we have three council seats to ll and only two candidates thus far.
Where are the city council candidates? Are they waiting to see who else might throw their hat in the ring? From June 11 to October 15 there are 18 weeks before ballots will hit voters’ mailboxes. at is
Housing initiatives would mean stronger cities
more than four but less than ve months. So, in the world of campaigning and fundraising, it is time to hit it. Should no additional council candidates le to run, the city council would have the responsibility to select someone to ll the third seat.
We will see what happens!
It was such a short marriage
It was inevitable. Some laughed saying “this won’t last long.” With two big egos, a collision was bound to happen.
Others questioned how long President Trump would let Elon Musk plow through one federal department after another with Cabinet members crying foul on sta ng cuts.
With his electric car business on the skids, Musk has now left his DOGE role, but has not been bashful about bashing Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill.”
Musk had this to say, “ is massive, outrageous, pork- lled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.”
While I concur with Musk’s comments, he should look himself in the mirror with the way his group DOGE went about cutting budgets and ring federal employees was without much thought or process. It was deplorable.
In the end, I wonder how many of these results the courts will leave standing. If he and his team had taken more time and thoroughly analyzed federal department expenditures and properly evaluated employees’ performances, it could have been a di erent outcome.
What a shabby excuse for a process to remove the bloat in our federal government. Anyway, Mr. Musk, thank you for that robust feedback on your bosom buddy’s “big, beautiful bill” on tax cuts and spending cuts. How Republicans in Congress can support such baloney is beyond any rational thought.

hensive solutions.

In Westminster, the urgency of this challenge is clear: our 2024 Community Survey found that 80% of respondents are concerned with the high cost of housing. is widespread concern demands action from all levels of government.
e article highlights a seemingly vast number of new apartment units “authorized” in Westminster and raises concerns about water resources.
It’s important to clarify that “authorized” units do not translate to immediate construction. is gure represents a potential capacity, not a guaranteed surge. Actual development happens incrementally, guided by market demand, existing infrastructure, and economic feasibility. Furthermore, the state recognized critical infrastructure needs. HB24-1313, the
“Housing in Transit-Oriented Communities” law, explicitly includes an exception for cities that can demonstrate they lack adequate water infrastructure to support increased density. at directly addresses water concerns, indicating the state considered these crucial factors in its policy.
e argument for exclusive and absolute local control doesn’t fully account for the scale of our current housing challenges. e policies shaped by decades of localized decisions have contributed to a widespread housing shortage that makes homes una ordable for many in our communities. is often pushes development outward, leading to the kind of urban sprawl Mr. Christopher himself decries, noting how “we failed in a big way” to avoid it and describing it as “always in the picture.”

Schools consider financial literacy curriculum
New law asks what teens must learn about their personal finances
BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SUZIE@COTLN.ORG
Forget balancing a checkbook. Today’s teens need to know how to avoid identity theft, decode a credit score and gure out if that “buy now, pay later” plan is actually worth it.
It can lead to overdrafts or worse.”
She said teens should learn how to read a pay stub, build a credit score and avoid scams on payment apps like Venmo and CashApp. Lessons should also guide them through how to evaluate nancial decisions, such as whether to rent an expensive apartment or sign up for a “buy now, pay later” plan.
“Even understanding basic investing, like what a Roth IRA is or how to open an interest-generating savings account can give them a huge head start,” Elrod said. Elrod said she was especially glad to see FAFSA covered in the new requirement.
“ at knowledge is something you just don’t intuitively understand, and it’s a very convoluted maze,” she said. “If we are doing it for that reason — bravo.”
With a new state law requiring all Colorado high school students to complete a course in nancial literacy beginning with students in the 9th grade on or after Sept. 1, 2026, educators now face a practical challenge: how do you design a course that prepares 21st-century teens to make smart nancial choices in a world of skyrocketing rents, digital wallets, student loans and TikTok stock tips?
e law, House Bill 25-1192, mandates a semester-long course in personal nancial literacy for every public school student, beginning with the class of 2028.
But it leaves the details up to local school districts, many of which are still guring out what today’s students need most: the basics of budgeting and saving, yes, but also how to navigate the gig economy, manage online spending and protect themselves from increasingly sophisticated nancial scams.
What the law requires, and what it doesn’t
Additionally, she emphasized that understanding FAFSA and student loans is crucial, as many students miss out on nancial aid by skipping the application process, which can leave them paying o debt well into the future.
While today’s teens may be more aware of traditional scams than older generations, Elrod said, they’re often more vulnerable to savvy marketing and highpressure sales tactics.
“Marketers are very good at making it feel good and immediate,” she said. “And kids are all about that.”
Keeping teens engaged in a dry subject
Teenagers may not be thrilled about taking a required money class, but educators can keep them engaged with realworld scenarios, Elrod said. at starts with relevance.
While the law sets a content requirement, it allows schools to integrate the nancial literacy standards into an existing course rather than create a new standalone class.
But, students must understand and practice lling out the federal or statenancial aid form (FAFSA or CAFSA), unless they and their parents opt out.
Colorado has one of the lowest FAFSA completion rates in the country, according to the Colorado Department of Higher Education. is means Colorado students are missing out on signi cant amounts of federally available grant money.
e law doesn’t include a standardized curriculum or end-of-course exam. Instead, it points to existing high school standards, last updated in 2020, as the foundation. ose standards cover budgeting and saving, credit and debt management and understanding taxes. But they also include topics like risk management and insurance, fraud prevention and identity protection and nancial decision-making and planning for college.
Each district will determine how to implement the course, whether as a graduation requirement embedded in current o erings or as a standalone class
What’s useful for teens in 2025
Anneliese Elrod, chief operating o cer of Westerra Credit Union, says the curriculum must go far beyond “checkbook math” to prepare students for real-life nancial challenges. at includes understanding how credit cards work, budgeting realistically and navigating everything fromnancial aid to digital payment scams.
“Budgeting by available balance is one of the most common mistakes we see young people make,” Elrod said. “ ey don’t understand the di erence between their current balance and what’s pending.
“ ey’re not going to understand purchasing a house. ey are going to understand going out to dinner with friends or buying new clothes,” she said. “Making the examples relevant helps students connect the dots.”
Elrod’s team at Westerra Credit Union o ers a classroom simulation that gives students a job, a salary and bills to manage and then throws high-pressure sales pitches their way.
“It’s one thing to talk about budgeting,” she said. “It’s another to experience the consequences of blowing your budget on an apartment with killer mountain views and realizing you can’t a ord to eat.”
When students walk through those decisions, Elrod said, the lessons tend to stick. “You can tell them they need to budget, but letting them feel what it’s like to make the wrong choice is much more e ective.”
What parents can do at home
Financial education doesn’t have to stop at school. Elrod encourages parents to involve teens in family budgeting, talk openly about money and consider opening joint accounts or debit cards when they’re ready.
“Every student is di erent. Some are ready at 10, others not until 16,” she said. “ e key is creating habits early and making the conversation feel relevant.”
Elrod recommends apps that help families gamify chores, savings and spending. Some allow parents to set savings rules, such as automatically diverting one-third of every allowance into savings and help kids track their spending in real-time.
“ e goal isn’t to lecture,” she said. “It’s to build con dence. When teens feel in control of their money, they make better choices.”

We have moved the festival to Parfet Park, right in the heart of downtown Golden,” Adamson wrote. “ e park o ers grassy space, shade from trees, and a central location that encourages visitors to stay, explore downtown and support local businesses throughout the weekend.”
Supporting local businesses and artists is the driver of the whole event, because these are the things that make a community unique.
“Local artists and creative nonprofits don’t just make beautiful things, they shape the culture and identity of Golden,” Adamson wrote. Supporting them through events like this ensures creativity stays visible, valued and sustainable. When you buy a piece of art or donate to the cause, you’re directly supporting someone’s craft, their small business and the cultural health of Golden.”
e aim is no matter what event a person attends, they come away invigorated
and eager to stand behind the creative community.
“We hope everyone leaves feeling inspired and ideally taking home something handmade,” Adamson wrote. “Whether it’s a painting, jewelry, a bowl, a story, or just a renewed connection to art, we want people to walk away feeling like they invested in something genuine. ARTSWEEK GOLDEN is our mission in action, ‘We create stronger community through art.’

BY ISABEL GUZMAN IGUZMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
In a softly lit room in Centennial, Lilly Cadillac Unger shu es her tarot cards with practiced hands. e space, lled with gentle natural light, is the heart of her business, Altered Arcana. On the table, a classic three-card spread — past, present and future — unfolds a story. Among the cards drawn: Death, the Six of Cups and the Nine of Wands.
“I see here that there was some kind of huge transition,” Unger said, pointing to the Death card.
e card’s reputation, she said, is the most feared and is more Hollywood than reality — its real message is transformation and rebirth.
Unger’s journey with tarot began at age 12, sparked by curiosity and the little guidebook included with her rst Rider–Waite deck — the most popular tarot deck, she notes, and one she’s mis-
placed more times than she can count.
For Unger, tarot isn’t about predicting the future.
“Tarot really should tell you about your present,” she said.
e Rider-Waite tarot card deck, rst published in 1909, was created by artist Pamela Colman Smith under the direction of occultist A.E. Waite. e deck consists of 78 cards — 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana — with each card featuring symbolic illustrations designed to evoke intuitive and emotional responses.
Distinctive for its fully illustrated Minor Arcana, the Rider-Waite deck’s imagery draws from esoteric traditions that embrace practices that involve secret or hidden knowledge, Christian mysticism and the teachings of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a secret society that studied occultism and metaphysics, according to the University of St. omas.
Kate Kettelkamp, who reads tarot cards from her Denver o ce, also starts
with the three card spread that displays the past, present and future. After she shu es, she has the person receiving the reading pull three cards.
“I like people to choose their own cards,” Kettlekamp said. “Di erent tarot readers have di erent rules. I like people to select the cards because I feel like you bring your own energy to it.”
When the cards are pulled and laid out as reversals — meaning the card’s art is upside down — Kettlekamp said that can signify an energy blockage.
Looking towards the card that represents the past, Kettlekamp observed the Nine of Cups, reversed.
“Cups are water, so it has this emotional, imaginative quality to it,” she said. “With it reversed, it can (signify) wanting to move something forward but having some obstacle.”
When Kettlekamp moved from California to Denver almost 10 years ago, she said everyone she met in the new city knew their astrology signs and
owned a tarot deck, inspiring her to dive into the metaphysical world. She currently studies consciousness in a graduate program at the California Institute of Integral Studies.
In the program, Kettlekamp studies culture, the human journey, the soul and the environment, which she said sets her up for inquisitive knowledge for reading tarot.
“I like to approach (tarot) from a place of inquiry. Some people ask, ‘should I break up with my partner?’ But I nd that the tarot doesn’t answer deterministically,” she said. “ en they’ll pull the Death card and I’ll say, ‘well, possibly, what do you think? It’s up to you.’ at could just be their current energy that is creating a trajectory towards breaking up.”
Kate Kettelekamp reads tarot cards at Kronos Astrology in Denver.
Florentino re ected on the readings she’s done that the cards portray a potentially negative message, and how she communicated it to her client.
Kettlekamp said the cards do not tell the future but can give insight into what struggles someone may be currently facing. She said it’s important for readers to uphold ethics when doing a reading.
“I’ve had people come into my o ce who have been disturbed from prior readings because they’ve been told things that make them anxious. So I do think that there’s some responsibility on the reader’s part to not induce anxiety by giving a deterministic prediction about someone’s life,” she said.
When the cards convey a negative message, Rachel Florentino from Bridge the Gap Tarot in Westminster said she views the cards as morphable.
“It’s not set in stone. ( e cards) are something we can bring to the present and change if we want to,” she said.
“ ere was a client that desperately wanted a baby … When I looked at her present, the problem was, she worked 80 hours a week and she wasn’t listening to her doctors telling her, ‘no, you cannot sustain that type of lifestyle while you’re pregnant,’” she said. “It hurt me because she wasn’t going to do that. I had to tell her she has to listen to people.”
Something Florentino did not always do at the beginning of her reading journey — even when she met the woman who wanted a baby — was shielding. In an e ort to protect herself from her clients’ energies, sometimes Florentino will imagine herself wearing a cloak that acts like a shield.
During another reading, Florentino pulled the Tower card in a past, present and future spread — with the Tower card in the future pile, she said it’s the harshest card of the deck.
“It’s because there’s things that you should be doing that you’re not doing and so the universe is going to make it happen. It can be harsh because it can no longer be in your control,” she said.
According to Florentino, the Tower card can show up when someone may be losing a job if they continue down their current trajectory.
“It’s de nitely a warning of: what do we know we need to be doing but we haven’t done yet?” she said.
Regarding the seemingly worrisome card — the Death card — Florentino said the image of the card, which typically displays a grim reaper-esque skeleton with a sword, scares people, largely due to Western society’s perspective of death.
“I think Hollywood has done a great job in scaring us with (death). In the United States, we’re not open about death and don’t view it as a rebirth but as the end of something. In a lot of other cultures, death is looked at as a deathrebirth process,” she said.
Regarding the online popularity of tarot card readings — from mass-collective tarot readings on YouTube to online psychic chats — Kettlekamp and Unger suggest looking at reviews to avoid being scammed.
“I would recommend for people to nd someone that has reviews because there are people who will take your money,” Kettlekamp said. “Anybody that has a physical location, not that that’s necessary, but it can indicate how much time they spend practicing.”
For Unger, reviews and having a connection with a reader are two ways to prevent scams.
“You just have to be honest with yourself about if it resonates, and I think you should be careful who you go to,” she said. “I think at the end of the day, getting reviews, and maybe just really asking yourself: ‘who am I being led to and why? Am I being led to this person because I saw something online that said: he’s thinking about you? And is that what I’m seeking?”’

Sprawl exacerbates commute times, tra c, and environmental strain – precisely the issues that state-level legislation aims to alleviate by encouraging more compact, transit-oriented development where infrastructure largely already exists. Westminster’s own 2023 Housing Needs Assessment revealed that approximately 29,000 people commute into the city for work, highlighting the
signi cant disconnect between where people live and where they work, a direct result of the housing shortage. e lawsuit by various cities, including Westminster, centers on questions of authority. Whatever the outcome of that suit, the immediate reality is that Colorado faces a signi cant housing crisis that a ects us all. e state’s legislative actions are an attempt to address systemic barriers to housing creation that have accumulated over time through various local zoning codes.
Rather than litigating these ef-
forts, Westminster should focus on how it can surpass state initiatives and lead the way to more vibrant, accessible, and a ordable communities. e ght shouldn’t be about home rule, it should be about how we are going to solve the housing crisis. It is disappointing to see Westminster, and Mr. Christopher, ght solutions rather than contribute to them. We have an opportunity to support more housing options, reduce commuting burdens, foster local businesses, and ease the nancial strain of housing costs. is involves a strategic planning
for new housing near transit, collaboration with state partners on infrastructure, and a focus on the well-being of all residents, rather than an unyielding preservation of the current status quo. e impact of policy is ultimately measured by its e ect on people’s ability to live and thrive in their community. Working together toward a more abundant and equitable housing market serves everyone.
