THIN ICE: Rescue crews gearing up for seasonal calls Dogs or people, Front Range pond ice usually too unreliable to be safe BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
His face covered in a mask, halfsubmerged in freezing water with all the traffic of Interstate 25’s morning rush hour behind him, Thornton Firefighter and Paramedic Blake McCarthy struggled to be heard by his teammates along the shore as he struggled to lift the mannequin up onto the ice shelf. At the other end of the rope, a team waited for the word to start pulling the rope he’d wrapped around this charge. Lt. Tom Willard, the trainer from the neighboring North Metro Fire and Rescue District, suggested next time using hand signals to tell his teammates to pull. “We use the ‘tomahawk chop’ to tell them to pull,” Willard said. “You’re wearing the mask, in cold water with all that traffic noise behind you. It makes it pretty hard to be heard.” This was a training exercise, but the outcome would be the same: once the victim was clear of the ice, the team would pull him to shore and treat him medically. Willard said the rescue went as well as could be expected. “It was a pretty thick ice shelf and I think the life jacket on the dummy got stuck, so he had to work through that,” he said. “When it gets stuck like that, the team has to stop pulling while you figure out what’s going on. You risk injuring the person and just making it worse. But you did it, you worked through it we got him out.” The late winter weeks tend to see more ice rescues along Colo-

education,” Farris said. “But the majority of ice rescues we get involved with start with a dog running out on the ice and then owner going out to try and save them.” It’s why local fire departments train for those situations. Teams from Thornton Fire and North Metro — which covers both Northglenn and Broomfield — spent a few days in mid-January doing just that, on Thornton’s Civic Center park pond and Broomfield’s Siena Reservoir. The scenario is usually the same: A rescue dummy is placed out in a hole in the ice somewhere in the middle of the bond. A firefighter must crawl out to the dummy, wrap it in a rope and lift it over the edge of the ice the team along the shore can pull it to safety with the rope. “Sometimes, it’s easier to send a boat to the edge of the ice and do the rescue that way,” Farris said.
Adams County rolled out a new program to help small businesses during the times of the pandemic. “Maintain & Sustain Adams - 5 Star Certification program lets businesses provide a safety plan and set more stringent safety measures to operate under state guidelines,” according to a statement released by Adams County on Jan. 22. “Business that get the certification can operate with indoor capacity limits that are one step lower on the COVID dial system than where the county’s reading sits, according to a statement. Those that remain in good standing won’t have to reapply. This is a pilot program open to the first 100 applicants. The county’s statement said with further Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment approvals, expected in February, the program will be opened to a greater number of businesses. The county applied to the CDPHE for full recognition of the program and is waiting on an official response, but businesses can apply through the online portal to jumpstart the process, according to the statement. “Many businesses have invested money and time into reopening safely during this pandemic, and we want to reward them for their efforts,” said commission chair Emma Pinter, according to the statement. “As long as a business maintains its certification, it can operate under a less restrictive

rado’s Front Range, what with the air temperatures ranging from the mid-60s one week to sub-freezing the next. All that freezing and thawing can lead to ice of varying thickness on the same body of water. The neighborhood pond might support a whole hockey team in one spot, but a dog would sink through on the other side of the pond. “And if the dog does break through the ice, don’t try to save it yourself,” said North Metro Fire District’s Public Information Officer Sara Farris. “If the ice won’t support a dog, it won’t support you.” Common calls
Farris said ice rescues, ranging from small ponds to large reservoirs, tend to be one of the more common calls the departments respond to this time of year. “People will call 911 when they just see kids on the ice, and we respond to come out and get them off of there, maybe give them

Council greenlights plan for Creekside Village retail space Developer plans to break ground for Thornton project this year BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A 13-acre, eight-lot development in east Thornton received its first approval from the city council at a Jan. 12 meeting. The council unanimously approved the conceptual plan for a commercial project in the larger Creekside Village development at the intersection of 128th Avenue and
Quebec Street. A Starbucks and unnamed credit union have already signed on and the developer hopes to secure more lease agreements when construction begins this year. The retail space will occupy the northeast corner of Creekside Village, the rest of which is a residential subdivision to undergo construction this year and next. The retail space will be directly across the street from Walmart Supercenter. The new development will be close to the Riverdale Dunes Golf Course and Riverdale Ridge High School. “I think this is going to be a great project, not just for the surrounding neighborhoods, but also for people
who are using the bike paths and the walking paths that stretch east and west through the property,” said Jason Wedlick, a project manager for applicant Woodbury Corporation, at the Jan. 12 meeting. Wedlick said he expects construction for roads and water infrastructure to begin in the middle of this year and buildings should start going up in May or June 2022. Through public comments submitted beforehand and city councilor comments, people were mainly concerned about traffic on 128th Ave. and Quebec St. Wedlick said Woodbury will widen both streets and install a traffic signal at the intersection of the two.
Council members also said they want Woodbury to attract tenants who are restaurants that can offer outdoor dining. “That would be great to attract some more of those opportunities. Especially to that area, of course,” said Councilwoman Angie Bedolla. Councilman Sam Nizam, who represents the ward the development is in, agreed. He said people are tired of drive-through restaurants. Overall, the council was pleased with the presentation and offered little push back for the development. Councilor Nizam said to Wedlick, “Jason, I want to say that I appreciate what you guys did, bringing retail to Ward 3, it’s badly needed.”
No fines for Thornton Shopping Center’s 76 code violations BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A municipal judge won’t financially penalize the owner of Thornton Shopping Center for 76 city code violations. Judge Charles Rose’s decision was a major development in an ongoing controversy about the primarily unoccupied plaza on the south side of town. The judge said it would be counterproductive to fine property owner Jay Brown because it would make it harder to afford necessary repairs. “If I impose fines at this point, that ain’t going to change anything,” Rose said at the sentencing hearing in the City of Thornton v. Thornton, LLC and Jay Brown Jan. 20. “I don’t believe that the citizens and neighbors of that property sincerely just want the property to remain in a state of disrepair,” the judge added. In December, Brown and his company, Thornton, LLC. plead guilty in municipal court to 76 city code
violations, including soffit, or architectural, disrepair and walkway damage. Asbestos is also prevalent in buildings. The structural or aesthetic violations is one half of a larger controversy over Brown’s management of the property. Decades ago, the dry-cleaning chemical perchloroethylene, or PERC, seeped from the property to its subsurface and into groundwater. That happened before Brown purchased the property 15 years ago, according to a city web page. However, when Brown purchased the property, he didn’t conduct, “environmental due diligence,” the city’s web page states. Ever since then, nearby residents have complained about the PERC contamination and code violations. Meanwhile, the city and Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) have acted against Brown to fix the problems in a timely fashion. Developers have wanted to redevelop the site but cannot until everything is cleaned up.
Last February, the city notified Brown of dozens of code violations and took him to court when he didn’t address them in time. Then, in October, CDPHE filed a lawsuit against Brown in the Adams County District Court for the contamination. The CDPHE suit triggered an injunction ordering Brown to remediate groundwater contamination in 2021. At the Jan. 20 sentencing hearing in municipal court, Brown and his attorney, Kenneth Skogg, updated the court on aesthetic and structural repairs. An on-site manager is already working on minor issues. Roof and soffit repairs will finish by the end of April and concrete repairs by the end of May. The major undertaking will be asbestos abatement and demolition, the timeline for which is unclear. For that, Brown needs to obtain permits for the demolition, Skogg explained. To help pay for the work ahead, Brown recently sold the parcel containing a Wendy’s restaurant, just east of Washington Street. He

still is working on securing funds to cover soffit and concrete repairs. All this is evidence of Brown’s “good faith” efforts, Skogg said. The attorney spoke against “emotional pleas and contentions that, in fact, Mr. Brown or Thornton, LLC don’t care. That they’re not paying attention. It’s not the case.” “Imposing substantial penalties, financial penalties will not, as you noted in your comments, get the buildings repaired and get the property back into code compliance,” Skogg added. Brown offered his own comments at the sentencing hearing. “I was beaten up quite a bit by the neighbors and I understand their frustration and their anger and their concerns. As long as I have managed this property, I have never ignored it,” he said. Though Rose ultimately decided against harsher penalties, the judge allowed others to speak their peace. Resident Seamus Blaney said, “Fine this guy, clip his wings, slap his wrists because he has ignored every other avenue that we have gone down … I’d like to show him how PO’d we are, ultimately, in the community. How the city is tired of jumping through hoops.” Rose ordered a review hearing in April or May for a status update on the repairs. If they aren’t progressing on schedule, Rose said he is willing to reconsider fining Brown.

Court won’t dismiss Westminster police suit Judge says need for training ‘...should have been obvious to the City’ BY MICHAEL KARLIK THE DENVER GAZETTE
A federal court has denied the city of Westminster’s request to dismiss an excessive force lawsuit in the 2018 shooting death of a man who allegedly charged officers with a knife, after acknowledging a pattern in the police department of no de-escalation attempts. “Plaintiff ’s allegations are sufficient to establish that given the frequency with which police officers encounter individuals of diminished mental capacity, the need to implement appropriate training should have been obvious to the City,” wrote U.S. District Judge Raymond P. Moore in a Jan. 13 order. Police killed Timmy Henley, 27, outside an apartment complex, say-
ing he held a knife above his head and charged at officers, according to police accounts. However, the lawsuit from Henley’s estate claimed the only knife was located behind a closed apartment door. According to records, on Sept. 4, 2018, Henley was hallucinating after consuming cocaine. Two hours prior to the fatal interaction, Officer Louis Engleberg responded to a 9-1-1 call to find Henley standing on a neighbor’s truck and claiming that dogs were chasing him (they were not). After a patdown and a medical check, Westminster police released Henley. After a second 9-1-1 call reporting a possible apartment break-in at the same complex, Engleberg again responded with Officer Chris Hempelmann. Engleberg recognized Henley after the man exited an apartment, seeming disoriented. Reportedly, Henley tried to descend a flight of stairs but the officers, rather than de-escalating, shot him 11 times. There was no body-worn
camera footage of the interaction. Colorado’s 2020 police accountability law, Senate Bill 217, set a deadline of July 1, 2023, for local law enforcement agencies to equip their officers with cameras. “The City of Westminster has persisted in its decision to not use body cameras despite numerous examples of cases where the officer’s narrative is plainly contradicted by other evidence,” wrote Raymond K. Bryant and Luke W. McConnell, attorneys for the plaintiff, in the federal complaint filed on Jan. 6, 2020. U.S. Magistrate Judge S. Kato Crews reviewed the allegations and Westminster’s motion to dismiss, ultimately recommending on Dec. 22 that the circumstances plausibly described a violation of Henley’s constitutional rights. As evidence of Westminster’s failure to train and supervise its officers, the lawsuit cited three other instances, including two SEE POLICE, P4

Seitz enters mayoral race Mayor pro tem second person to throw hat in ring for Westminster mayor BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
All but guaranteeing an eventful local election season, Anita Seitz announced her bid for Westminster mayor. Seitz, the current mayor pro tem on Westminster City Council, will face off against former Mayor Nancy McNally, who announced her bid in September. Seitz The presence of Seitz and McNally in the race ensures that water rates and city development will be front and center issues. “I believe that it is our responsibility to ensure Westminster is a thriving community now and in the future. That’s why I focus on sustainability. Sustainability is making sure that decisions we make today don’t negatively impact future generations,” Seitz said in a video announcing her bid.
Seitz is a proponent of current water rates for the upkeep of existing infrastructure and investment in future utility needs. The mayor pro tem’s support of water rate increases in 2018 spurred a recall movement against her, Mayor Herb Atchison and Councilors Kathryn Skulley and Jon Voelz. The Westminster Water Warriors recently filed suit against the city to overturn the city clerk’s decision to reject recall petitions based on invalid signatures. McNally has already positioned herself as a vocal critic of current water rates and the councilors who supported the increases. In her announcement video, Seitz signaled that she won’t make water the sole focus of her campaign. Her other priorities include strategic city planning, employment, affordable housing, support for local schools and preserving open space. She also noted how the COVID-19 pandemic and financial crisis has devastated the local economy. After serving on the city council for seven years, Seitz said, “I know my experience, my knowledge and passion for the community will help lead us through these unprecedented times and help you to move the city forward.”

Thornton City Council unexpectedly fires city attorney BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Thornton City Council terminated City Attorney Luis Corchado on a narrow 5 to 4 vote at a Jan. 19 special meeting. The reasons for Corchado’s termination are mostly unknown, except for hints that a few council members dropped. Regardless of how much each city councilor knew about the situation, it was clear the decision was sudden. Mayor Jan Kulmann, Mayor Pro Tem Jessica Sandgren and Councilors David Acunto, Adam Matkowsky and Angie Bedolla voted for terminating Corchado. Councilors Jacque Phillips, Sam Nizam, Julia Marvin and Sherry Goodman dissented.
In terminating Corchado, the city will pay him a severance of at least $89,000. Council also appointed Deputy City Attorney John Mallonee to serve in the interim. “As usual, I have no idea what is going on behind the scenes with the mayor and four council members who have made a decision about the attorney’s contract,” Phillips said passionately. “This is another, behind closed doors, dirty deal,” she added. The four councilors who voted against Corchado’s termination all said they didn’t have enough information about the situation to make a decision. Marvin also said she feels that five council members were privy to information that she wasn’t. Kulmann and Sandgren seemed
especially prepared for the agenda item beforehand. When the meeting started, Kulmann immediately asked Sandgren to make a motion. Several councilors alluded to email communications from Kulmann over the weekend regarding Corchado. The mayor asked Phillips to participate in a “secret Zoom meeting” with Kulmann and a “secret third person,” Phillips said. Nizam said he also communicated with Kulmann over the weekend about the situation. What Nizam learned, which he called “very disturbing,” was the first time he heard about it. “Some of the allegations were that it’s a toxic work environment, some of a sexual nature in there,” Nizam said.
Before the councilman could expand further, fellow councilors stopped him in his tracks because he was discussing personnel matters in a public meeting. It wasn’t clear if Corchado was responsible for the toxic work environment or someone else. However, Kulmann said at the meeting, “Information that I have learned has caused me to lose trust and faith in the city attorney.” Mayor Pro Tem Jessica Sandgren offered similar comments. “Trust has been broken and confidence has been lost,” she said. Whatever the allegations about Corchado are, no members of the city council or city staff have launched an official investigation to learn more, Nizam said.
Consultant recommends increase in Thornton sewer rates BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Rate consultant Raftelis recommended Thornton City Council to increase sewer rates for system upkeep and capital investments. Council listened to Raftelis representatives present a comprehensive sewer rate study at a planning session Jan. 19. Councilors didn’t express support or opposition to the rate increases and said they need more time to study the findings.
Councilwoman Julia Marvin said she wants to “see the impact of what it’s going to be overall for residents.” “I think we have all seen what has happened in Westminster. So, it might be helpful, too, to get some input from the public just to see if, generally, this is something that people would be okay with,” Marvin added. Marvin’s comment was echoed Mayor Pro Tem Jessica Sandgren, showing that utility rates are a touchy subject across the north metro area.
In Westminster, a citizen-led group is trying to recall four members of Westminster City Council for supporting water rate increases. The Westminster city clerk’s office deemed the recall petitions invalid, leading the recall group to recently file suit to try and overturn the clerk’s decision. In 2019, Brighton residents recalled the former Mayor Ken Kreutzer partly for supporting water rate increases. Alluding to threats of recall, Sandgren said after Raftelis’ presentation, “I just want to make sure we’re not going to put ourselves in a similar situation.” 70 cent increase needed
However, Raftelis and city staff made it clear the increases are necessary for the city to achieve its future goals. There are two ways the city generates revenue for its sewer system: rates and connection fees. Monthly rates for customers should

in which Engleberg used force on children, “where excessive force was allegedly used on individuals with diminished mental capacity or emotional disturbances.” The prior interactions included Engleberg going hands-on with an 11-year-old autistic boy, a similar altercation involving an emotionally-distressed 16-year-old, and a fatal police shooting of an unarmed man in mental distress — one that did not involve the officers sued in Henley’s death. Westminster objected to Crews’ recommendation, saying the other instances of reported misconduct were dissimilar, and, in the fatal case, occurred too close to the Henley shooting for the city to take proper corrective action. There was also no proof, the city continued, that training specifically about mentally or emotionally compromised individuals would have led to a different outcome. “Considered together,” Moore wrote in response, “the allegations
increase by about $.70 starting in 2022, Raftelis representative Andrew Rheem said. That would add up to an average monthly bill of $19.87. Subsequently, rates should increase incrementally every year of about $.60 for monthly bills. Meanwhile, the consultant proposed changes for connection fees, a one-time cost that developers or homeowners pay to connect their house to the city’s sewer system. Raftelis recommended increasing connection fees at a range of $175 to $570 depending on the dwelling unit someone is paying for. Thornton’s sewer system needs plenty of work, said Jason Pierce, Thornton’s infrastructure engineering director. For capital investments, Thornton is completing upgrades to its Big Dry Creek life station for build outflows. Right now, the city spends $1 million a year to rehabilitate five miles of pipe — about 1 percent of the total system. underlying these incidents are sufficient to show an informal custom of allowing the City’s officers to escalate situations involving people with diminished mental capacity by using force and a failure to train or supervise its officers.” Sgt. Trevor Materasso, spokesperson for the Westminster Police Department, said that the city is finalizing its purchase for body-worn cameras, as well as its training and policy requirements. He estimated officers will begin wearing the equipment in early 2021. The city attorney’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Moore’s order. “We believe the motion was simply a delay tactic designed to impede our efforts to peer deeper into the evidence of the case and into the evidence of other incidents involving Westminster officers using excessive force,” said Bryant about the city’s request to dismiss. “When Westminster officers kill, they may silence the voice of their target, but the evidence left behind speaks volumes if it is allowed to be seen and acted upon.” The case is Estate of Timmy Henley v. Westminster et al.

Thornton City Council supportive of police-community team Terrence Gordon, Thornton’s new police chief, presented on community engagement initiatives he plans to undertake BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The city of Thornton may take its next step towards a citizen advisory group for police. Several Thornton city councilors expressed support for more community input on policing at a Jan. 19 planning session. Terrence Gordon, Thornton’s new police chief, said he wants to establish a police-community team and facilitate more regular community meetings. Some residents have been asking for these programs for a while, especially in conjunction with state and nationwide calls for more police accountability. Northglenn City Council voted to establish a similar group in December, which will officially launch in coming months. Northglenn’s group will include residents and other community members and will offer input on the police department’s strategic plan, hiring policies and use of force tactics. The vision for Thornton’s policecommunity team isn’t as detailed
currently. However, Gordon told the council it would be a source of ideas and feedback. It would include residents and other community members, potentially from local organizations or nonprofits. “A lot of times in government, we work in an echo chamber where we talk to people who think the way we do. We get feedback from people who think the way we do. And what this will do is give us another source of ideas and “barometer” on emerging issues,” Gordon said at the planning session. In addition to the police-community team, Gordon said he wants members of the police department, including himself, to meet more frequently with the community, including apartment managers and home community managers. The department is planning to reach out to HOAs to schedule such events. The meetings would allow the department to update the community on crime and get to know residents better. Councilwoman Julia Marvin was excited about the idea. Community-police engagement, she said, is “not something that happens overnight, it’s seeds that you have to plant. I’m thrilled to see that is going to be a priority for you and the department and everything.” Gordon also said he wants to diversify the department by recruiting at job fairs, colleges, churches and other community-based organizations. The department also will start reporting data about use

of force incidents that will include demographic data from the state by 2022. Several factors, including Gordon’s start, a new state law known as Enhance Law Enforcement Integrity and goals set by a council ad hoc committee on equity all drove the initiatives Gordon outlined at the planning session. Previous ad hoc equity meetings about the police department “were certainly the most emotional of

all three topics and definitely, there were some tears during the community input meeting. I just wanted to let you know that Ward 1 appreciates your efforts and especially regarding the diversity issues,” said Councilwoman Jacque Phillips. “My community is severely impacted by racism on many levels. We love our police and we’re looking forward to the heightened community engagement that you’re proposing.”

The team has a boat they use if the situation calls for it, she said. The two agencies train for ice rescues together because they’ll likely respond together and need some working together. “No matter where you are, we need people to know that they are going to get the same level of service,” Farris said. Ice rescue drills
Farris said crews tend to respond to ice rescues in minutes. At least one firefighter dons a waterproof immersion suit and then tries to reach the victim, sometimes by walking carefully, usually by crawling and sometimes by swimming. Then they ask three questions: Are you alone, what is your name and are you injured. “Are you alone, that’s really the most important question,” Willard said. “We know right away if there is somebody else out there who may already be under the water. That’s really important because that’s going to mean that we need a dive team to go out.” Then it’s a matter of getting the person clear of the ice, which is not always easy. The firefighter doesn’t always have good leverage to make lifting the person easy and the team doesn’t want to start pulling until the victim is clear. “You have to be really careful with hypothermic people,” North Metro Lieutenant John Cook said. “The cold can make them very brittle and you risk injuring them further if you’re not really careful.”

Westminster Presbyterian FISH food pantry offers a hand-up

he Westminster Presbyterian Church is the oldest church in the city and the place roughly 115,000 people call “home.” Founded in 1892, the church sits in the same neighborhood where the original church once stood. Ever since it began, the Presbyterian Church offered support and help to individuals and has been a community partner. Today, one of its forte’s is its FISH food pantry. While FISH of Westminster started in 1970 with a mission of servicing the neighborhood by babysitting and helping neighbors, the food bank became a reality in the 1990s. It’s been located in the Educational wing of the church located at 74th Avenue and Osceola Street in “Historic Westminster.”
Westy Presbyterian FISH distributed over 43,000 meals
Westminster Presbyterian Church FISH serves quite a geographical area. It stretches from I-25 to Sheridan Boulevard and 52nd to 144th Avenues. Those boundaries include a portion of Westminster, a portion of Thornton, Federal Heights and a portion of unincorporated Adams County.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Teachers are doing what they do best
Together with educators in teacher unions across the country, we are continuing to do what we do best: educating and caring for the children of our communities. Over the last 11 months, educators have been innovative, creative and dedicated to providing high-quality instruction in an ever-changing environment. While every one of us would prefer all students to be in our schools where they can participate in interactive lessons, work collaboratively with their peers and receive the extra support they may need, the COVID-19 has forced us to “do school differently.” Online and hybrid instruction has created many challenges for students, families, and educators. Just as it is when school is operating fully in-person, educators are going aboveand-beyond and the students who show up and participate are learning and growing. Collaborating with our school and district leadership is nothing new for teacher unions. Educators have always used their voices to improve the learning conditions for our students and teaching conditions for our colleagues. The past 11 months have been SEE LETTER, P9

However, the food bank does not turn down anyone who has been experiencing food insecurity during the COVID pandemic. According to Melissa Dukes, who has managed the Presbyterian food bank since June 2015, this past year was an exceptional year with the economic impact on individuals and families due to the deadly virus. She reports that 4,323 clients were served at the church during 2020 with well over 43,000 meals being provided. On average, except for the months they were closed at the beginning of the pandemic, 110 people receive 10 meals per week — that comes to 1,100 being provided meals each week. Looking at it in another way, she and the 28 volunteers distributed more than 150,000 pounds of food to these deserving individuals in 2020. Working with a $15,500 annual budget, Ms. Dukes certainly gets the most bang for the buck and stretches food donations to the maximum. Less is more
tribution to those in need from Growing Home, the Westminster Methodist Church (temporarily closed), Advent Lutheran Church (temporarily closed), St. Marks Catholic Church (temporarily closed) and the Westminster Presbyterian Church. This is contrasted by how other FISH food banks are organized. For example, the Broomfield community operates with a single larger operation that was begun many years ago by the Broomfield United Methodist Church. Dukes believes the smaller, more personal approach in Westminster fits the clientele quite well. She and the volunteers know all the regulars and their stories. It’s more like a family relationship. She and the volunteers are aware of what these families are going through and offer compassion and kindness. Dukes herself found a perfect fit heading up the food back after retiring from a 40-year career with the federal government. Her work experience in human resources and project management with the Department of Navy and later with the Interior Department could not have been a better fit.

’m sorry. I’m sorry for what I would say on Twitter if I were on Twitter. The same goes QUIET for Facebook and DESPERATION Instagram and any others I don’t know about. Sooner or later, everyone on Twitter apologizes for something. I know I wouldn’t be any different. I’d say something Craig Marshall that was “tone deaf.” (I see the Smith words “tone deaf ” a lot.) At first, I’d try to defend what I said, then I’d make up an excuse for what I said. Then I’d apologize. It would go something like this: “I want to apologize to the State of Texas and all Texans. What I said about Texas and Texans was tone deaf. I know that now. “This will not define me. However, I don’t know what will, and maybe this will define me.” Perhaps there are plenty of good reasons to have a Twitter account, and they offset all of the negativity I keep reading about.
If I did have an account, I know just what I’d do. I would be up in the middle of the night tweeting exactly what I thought of musicals. “Hamilton.” “Cats.” “Mamma Mia.” For or against? Little Miss beauty pageants, the NRA, the Second Amendment, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, peanut butter, Scientology, chocolate chip ice cream, Quentin Tarantino, motivational speakers, televangelists, situation comedies, Comic Con, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert, the Easter Bunny. My mailbox would explode, implode, spit and fume. Last week I had a nightmare like no other: I was a contented Douglas County high school art teacher but the principal, Mr. Kafka, decided it was my turn to teach a new course. “American Patriotism.” I begged and pleaded: “No, not me. Not now.” In the first place, I don’t know how to tweet. The word itself isn’t fit for a Runyonesque character like I am. “Harry, I’m going upstairs to tweet,” would worry the dog. Not everyone, as we know, apologizes for what they express on Twitter. Some of us never apologize.
Maybe you have noticed? People are far more likely to complain now than they once were. And to complain aggressively. Some things trigger all of us. Race and abortion, for examples. Some things trigger select groups or individuals. Perfume in elevators and gum chewing. If the whole perfume industry went away, I wouldn’t mind. Wait. Maybe I should reword that. Think twice: Do you really want to smell like your off-aunt’s funeral? See what I mean? I am governed by black coffee and an unnecessary need to engage in pedantic fault-finding. I’m working on it. There’s a brand new hair shirt hanging in the closet. If anyone thinks “We’re all in this together,” they haven’t been paying attention. Not wanting to stoke further divisions among the citizenry, I am going to try to sit on the fence for a while. Travel the road’s middle. Try to appeal to every man, woman and child. It can be done. “Offend no one,” will be my motto, my newest tattoo.

The basics of tackling food insecurity
So, where does Ms. Dukes procure all the food that is given out four times a week at the FISH center? The food bank purchases a lot of the food from the Food Bank of the Rockies at low prices. Thanks to Grocery Rescue partnerships with various food-oriented businesses, no cost contributions come to the food bank as well. King Soopers provides 300-1,000 pounds of food each week at no cost. The Kum & Go Convenience Store at 74th Avenue and Federal Boulevard is a generous no-cost provider of packaged pizza and prepared sandwiches each week. Starbucks is also a partner. In addition, food is donated by a variety of groups. Before the COVID virus, food drives by such organizations as 9Cares, City of Westminster, City of Thornton, Eagle Scouts, Boy Scouts, PEO and the Baha’i Congregation took place. Long-time partnerships continued to collect donations from Valente’s Italian Deli and Bakery throughout the year. In 2020, funds to purchase food and equipment came from the City of Westminster ($7,500), City of Thornton ($6,000), $2,000 food credit from Jeff Bezos/Feeding America, Denver Presbytery ($1,000), We Don’t Waste ($650), church members and from the community. Filling “empty tummies”
According to Ms. Dukes, the
FISH food bank is making a difference in peoples’ lives. The organization’s goal is to provide emergency food to reduce food insecurity. As she points out, with less food insecurity there is less worry that children will go hungry. Children will achieve and learn more at school. With fewer “empty tummies”, it makes for a more stable life. Melissa told me that this “is not fairy dust.” It is basic. It is real. It is making a difference in lives. When asked how long she thinks the Westminster FISH food bank will be in business, without hesitation she responded, “Forever.” She believes it is “the nature of this world and there will always be a need.” Kudos to their mission
Kudos goes to the Westminster Presbyterian Church and Melissa Dukes for this fine vital community service which they have been administering, especially during the COVID virus. Thank you for your caring, compassion and belief in providing a “hand-up” to those in need.
A welcomed change in leadership and direction
We look forward with faith, optimism and reassurance to not only the direction, but also the style/demeanor which President Biden and Vice President Harris will bring to the leadership of our nation’s government. They have a huge challenge in front of them, not only re-directing where the country needs to go, but also how to get there. The division within America is perhaps the worst it has been

since the Civil War. The President and his Cabinet are faced with a monumental mess to clean up. It is critical to tackle a totally botched effort on the COVID19 pandemic starting with reorganizing President Trump’s ill-fated “Operation Warp Speed.” It has been a major disappointment in distributing the vaccines to all 50 states in a timely fashion. According to a Washington PostABC News poll, 52% believe the virus is “not at all under control” contrasted with 8% who believe it is” mostly under control.” President Biden will make the delivery of the vaccines and continued testing a legitimate number one priority. Getting underway
Certainly, a key priority for the new administration will be to get the Biden Cabinet members and other high ranking officials confirmed by the U.S. Senate and in place. They need to “hit the ground running.” Biden has promised a significant relief package of $1.9 trillion including an additional $1,400 per person which requires Congressional authorization. Time is of the essence to distribute whatever this next relief package might contain to continue, turning the
national economy around and getting people back on their feet. Facing a divided nation
Beyond containing the COVID19 virus and re-building the economy, the Biden Administration is concurrently faced with a strongly divided country along political lines. It goes without saying that there is not a “silver bullet” single action or decision which will heal this deep chasm. Hopefully, many of Trump’s supporters will have seen how drastic the man was willing to go to attempt to overturn Biden’s Presidential victory and give Biden the benefit of the doubt. It was encouraging to see outgoing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell publicly state that Trump was responsible for the violent mob that stormed the Capitol. However, those who are members of militant and white supremacy groups are “hardened” and likely to remain ardent in their opposition to the Biden Administration.

A
small desk, an antique typewriter and some space on Denver’s 16th Street Mall are the tools Colorado native Devan Kingsford needs to arouse some pretty strong emotions. With a few taps on the Remington mobile’s keys, he creates unique poetry on demand for strangers passing by. “I love doing this. I have an English degree, so I’m probably going to end up teaching at some point,” said Kingsford. “But for now, I’m fine just writing poetry for strangers.” Up the street, Peter Olschner and Kyle Lang are two young street musicians performing soulful jazz tunes and trying to preserve downtown Denver’s rich history of street music. “We don’t have a band name because we just started jamming together,” said Olschner. “We both love playing music with other people.” It was a cold January day on the mall and it was bare with masked people enjoying entertainment, restaurants and shopping to escape COVID quarantines. COVID-19 has presented some challenges, especially for performers and musicians. The pandemic took away Lang’s job, sending him to the streets to play.

A new year begins Upon Closer Reflection COMING ATTRACTIONS
Clarke Reader
O
f the many ways to describe the last near-year of pandemic living, one could certainly do much worse than the term still life. Not only have so many people’s lives been stilled by lockdown, but being stuck inside has given all of us the opportunity to see the unpainted still lives around our homes, gardens and yards. In its first exhibition of 2021, Walker Fine Art is highlighting six artists’ examination of this traditional and beloved painting style in Upon Closer Reflection. The exhibition runs at the gallery, 300 W. 11th Ave., No. A, in Denver, through Saturday,
March 6. The gallery is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Tuesday through Saturday, with a limited capacity due to COVID-19 restrictions. Visitors can also make reservations for a private viewing of the gallery. “We’ve all been spending more times with the static objects at home and the vignettes we’ve created with them in our spaces,” said Bobbi Walker, owner of Walker Fine Art. “These things are able to bring us energy and joy every day.” One of the gallery’s points of pride is the variety of mediums featured in each show, and how this variety allows for the telling of a complex and dynamic thematic story.
As both Walker and gallery manager Libby Garon explain, the show is a way to invite introspection as we get into the swing of a new year. The artists on display — Bryan Leister, Eileen Roscina, Brian Comber, Angela Beloian, Jane Fulton Alt and Chloe Hedden — use everything from oil painting and traditional and cyanotype photography to watercolor and augmented reality to explore their subjects. One of the most immediately arresting is Leister’s Elements, which blends a focus on SEE READER, P11

“I used to teach percussion in public schools around Colorado and after the pandemic shut down extracurricular activities, I was kinda lost for a bit,” he said. “It’s been great getting back into it, though.” Olschner said the pandemic had a positive impact on playing his music because he was able to still earn an income. “I would not have discovered my love for busking if I had a traditional gig opportunity. I’ve been able to continue to be a performer despite the situation surrounding the pandemic,” he said. As for Kingsford, the typewriter poet, the pandemic moved him away from his favorite spot in Larimer Square, but it has not slowed him down. He is still able to find locations to set up his typewriter. “There was more walking space and, luckily, we have the 16th Street Mall, which is a pedestrian mall which gives you a lot more space. Without that extra space, I probably would not have been able to work. Also, it would not be at a safe distance,” said Kingsford.
gShouting on the street corners Kingsford is a native of Colorado and received an English degree from Metropolitan State University of Denver. He has been creating poetry for strangers for more than seven years on the streets of Denver and at special events. He does not charge for his poetry but accepts donations. Kingsford started working as a poet at the Art Walk on Santa Fe Drive in Denver, standing on the street corner with a book of his own poems in his hand, shouting his creations to strangers.

the way light plays on objects with a digital experience that turns his paintings into works that engage several senses via a free app that can be downloaded to mobile devices. When a device’s camera is pointed at the paintings, shapes appear, and sounds can be heard - sounds that change as the shapes are touched. “Leister wanted to take something as traditional as still life and bring it into the digital age,” Garon said. “It’s like unwrapping a package or present.” Another highlight is Jane Fulton Alt’s photographs, which staggeringly blend traces of classic Dutch still life works with the much more modern photography style. The result are works that look like both paintings and photographs and capture every detail of the objects with hyper-realistic clarity. In addition to the works on display, the gallery has worked on building a dynamic web and video presence, which includes glimpses behind the creation of the work and videos that provide a window into artists’ methods and meanings. “Artists are so often the canary in the coal mine and can knock on society’s door to get a message out,” Walker said. “The underlying story of the art we have on display is
He did that until a woman warned him that he should stop. “You are gonna get yourself killed — there’s one thing people hate worse than poetry, is when it’s screamed at them by a stranger,” said Kingsford. She suggested that he get a typewriter to choose a topic and write for strangers. “I started doing that and never looked back. It’s incredible,” he said. Crying and hugging
Kingsford’s poetry has touched many hearts with his words, none more than his own — sometimes in ways he has a hard time describing. “You know, I can’t even imagine as a poet, I should have had a word for it,” said Kingsford. A few years ago a woman approached him and asked for a poem. “She was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor, and she had six months to live. She wanted me to write her a poem that made her not afraid of death,” said Kingsford. “I wrote her poem. Then we cried together and hugged, and then she left.”
Have Remington, will travel
Why did Kingsford choose an antique Remington typewriter to create his poems? “I own about 11 typewriters. Three of them are Remington portables because they are incredible,” he said. “It’s like a laptop. It’s small, the fonts are 10 points and I average from three to 16 lines. I only use little quarter sheets of paper to write my poems. So you can fit a lot of words.” As far as personalizing each poem, Kingsford said he relies on the subject to get him started. Some people offer up their whole life story, others only give non-verbal clues. “There are other poets who do this, and they have their methods. I always healing, and we want people to come away from our shows with their heart lifted and some kind of inspiration.” For more information, call 303-3558955 or visit www.walkerfineart.com.

Olschner plays guitar and Lang plays drums. Both have been playing music since they were children and have been playing together for a short time. Lang loves instrumental math-rock music, and Olschner loves jazz. So the plan is to form a jazz combo and do covers with popular tunes. Olschner 24, was born and raised in Arvada. He attended Pomona High School in Arvada, learning choir and musical theater. Olschner went to Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington, and studied philosophy and music. He has been playing guitar since he was 16 years old and mostly earns income full time as a street performer in Denver and Boulder — supplemented by walking his brother’s dog for extra income. Kyle Lang, 21, was adopted from Korea and grew up in Westminster. He is studying psychology at Front Range Community College and was a music major at Metropolitan State University. He’s been playing drums for 12 years, which supplements his regular paycheck from NAPA Auto Parts in Boulder.

Mall music
Olschner enjoys performing his music for people on the 16th Street Mall and the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder. The practice has developed him into an experienced performer. “The people are very generous with their tips when they are enjoying the music. I love making cash tips, because it allows me to pay for my rent and my groceries as I continue to develop my career as a professional musician,” said Olschner. Lang enjoys playing at the mall for a variety of people. “Music always brings people together... I love the crowd, and I love being able to share my craft with others,” Lang said. Lang and Olschner’s plans are to play Sunday jazz night at Dazzle in downtown Denver. You can watch the Lang and Olschner on tiktok with username @cattrumpets.

When I was a sophomore in high school, my friend sold me his acoustic guitar with a buzzy string for $20, and I haven’t looked back since.” He’d like to open a private lesson studio teaching students music theory and guitar techniques. “I am working towards producing original music, music videos, and educational videos for the internet as another source of income down the line,” said Olschner. Lang’s short-term goal is to finish his degree at Colorado State University. After graduation, he plans to start a career in counseling. “My long-term goal is buying a Honda Civic type R,” said Lang.

Wrestling postseason comes into focus Frederick’s Alex Carrillo puts the squeeze on Erie’s Peter Young during a 120-pound match at the Frederick Invitational wrestling tournament in January.
STAFF REPORT
The Colorado High School Activities Association outlined its plans for postseason wrestling last week. The formats for regionals and state will be different because of coronavirus. Regionals for both boys and girls teams will be a two-day tournament Friday and Saturday, March 5 and 6. The state will allow 112 student-athletes to participate each day. The girls tournament will feature the 100through 127-pounders the first day and the 136to 215-pounders the second day. The boys tournament includes the 106through 145-pounders on opening day and the 152- through 285-pounders the second day. The tourneys feature 16-person brackets. The

Horizon’s Buzard commits to Puget Sound for football BY RYAN DUNN SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
Horizon High School senior free safety Aidan Buzard is headed to the Pacific Northwest. The two-year varsity starter committed to the University of Puget Sound Jan. 14, becoming the latest member of the Loggers’ 2021 recruiting class. Buzard visited four schools – in-
cluding Puget Sound – in December, and settled on the Tacoma, Wash., institution after developing a rapport with the Loggers’ coaches and learning about the team’s fastpaced defensive system. Along with the LogBuzard gers being a good fit for Buzard on the field, the sought-after recruit said
that he was also drawn to Puget Sound’s location in the Seattle metro area. A lifelong Thornton resident whose father also played football for Horizon under head coach Frank Ybarra, Buzard said he hopes his decision will open doors to new experiences. “I love Colorado, but I want to go somewhere else,” said Buzard. “Even though my mom wants me to stay, she’s happy for me. I love the
campus, love the Tacoma-Seattle area. I’ve always been a Seahawks fan too, so I’ve always had the attraction over there.” A hard-hitting free safety with a keen feel for the game, Buzard’s responsibilities on the field for Horizon increased in his senior season, with Ybarra, who doubles as the Hawks’ defensive coordinator, SEE BUSARD, P15

entrusting Buzard with reading the opposing offense and calling audibles to counter any mismatches. Buzard, who has been playing football since the third grade, got his first taste of varsity action his sophomore year after a rash of injuries depleted the Hawks’ safety corp. He became a full-time starter his junior year, teaming with classmate Vincent Miller to lead the Hawks’ defense. Despite a hectic offseason full of Coronavirus hurdles, Buzard was able to continue his on-field development thanks to a close relationship with Ybarra and specialized training at Six Zero Academy, a football development program run by former Denver Broncos lineman Matt McChesney. “When I trained at Six Zero Academy I learned a lot more footballwise,” said Buzard. “And so [Ybarra] noticed that when we started getting ready for the season, I had conversations with him about certain
nament (location to be determined) will be two, single-day tournaments Friday and Saturday, March 12 (class 2A and 3A boys) and 13 (class 4A and 5A boys and the girls state tournament). It’s an eightteam bracket for both genders, and there will be consolation matches. This is the first sanctioned season for girls wrestling.

schemes and he just noticed that I had more football IQ.” Buzard’s offseason progress showed throughout Horizon’s season, as he was able to make 22 tackles in just seven games. Though the Hawks struggled at times, Buzard said he believes the team became mentally tougher as they navigated their way through what Buzard called a “hectic” season. As he prepares to move out West and make the transition to college football, Buzard is also continuing to make his schoolwork a priority. A passionate math student at Horizon, Buzard is considering majoring in engineering or computer science, though he has not declared a major yet. Overall, Buzard said he is looking forward to experiencing all that Puget Sound has to offer – on and off the field. “Just learn more football, hopefully compete for a spot my freshman year,” said Buzard. “It’s always a goal to start. I want to make new friends, experience a new environment, build my life and education there, live life, play football and do the best that I can.”

Lakewood, CO 80215 hereinafter called “Contractor”, for and on account of the Contract for construction of 2020 Hydrant Replacement, Project No. 20-450.
Legal Notice No. 707262 First Publication: January 21, 2021 Last Publication: January 28, 2021 Published in: Northglenn Thornton Sentinel Public Notice NOTICE OF CITY COUNCIL PUBLIC HEARING PUBLIC NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that there has been filed with the City Clerk, City of Thornton, Adams County, Colorado, a First Amended and Restated Service Plan and related documents for the Parterre Metropolitan District Nos. 1-8 (the “Districts”). Maps of the Districts along with the proposed First Amended and Restated Service Plan is now on file at the City of Thornton City Hall, 9500 Civic Center Drive, Thornton, Colorado, 80229-4326, and is available for public inspection. Please email clerk@thorntonCO.gov to request a copy. NOTICE IS HEREBY FURTHER GIVEN that the City Council of the City of Thornton, Adams County, Colorado, will hold a public hearing to consider approval of the proposed First Amended and Restated Service Plan at 7:00 pm, or as soon as possible thereafter, on Tuesday, February 23, 2021. To attend the public hearing, register in advance at https://thorntonco.zoom.us/ webinar/register/WN_Sj9T4LWsSfeJLTeplr25mA or call 669-900-6833 and enter meeting ID 974 0212 6284. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting and the process for providing testimony. The Districts each currently consist of approximately 1,600 square feet of residential and nonresidential land located entirely within the City of Thornton, generally located between Quebec Street on the west, E-470 on the north, and East 144th Avenue on the south. The Districts intend to include an additional 796.7 acres into their boundaries, consisting of residential and nonresidential land. The area to be included into the Districts is generally located entirely within the City of Thornton and is generally located between Holly Street on the west, Quebec Street on the east, East 152nd Avenue and Ehler Parkway on the north and East 140th Avenue on the south. The Districts were previously organized as metropolitan districts to finance the construction of certain public improvements for Parterre development and have the authority to impose a mill levy for repayment of debt and for limited administrative, operation and maintenance purposes. The purpose of the proposed First Amended and Restated Service Plan is to (1) add a maximum mill levy for operations and maintenance services; (2) increase the total debt issuance limitation from $85,000,000 to $189,297,783; (3) add a conveyance provision; (4) add increased community engagement provisions; (5) describe which public improvements may be financed from proceeds of debt issued by the Districts; (6) delete the ability for the Districts’ Maximum Debt Mill Levy to become unlimited; and (6) add a form disclosure notice. For debt service, the proposed First Amended and Restated Service Plan states that the maximum mill levy that may be imposed upon taxable property within the Districts’ boundaries shall not exceed 50 mills. For operations and maintenance services, the proposed First Amended and Restated Service Plan states that the maximum mill levy that may be imposed upon taxable property within the Districts’ boundaries shall not exceed 10 mills. However, if the method of calculating assessed valuation is changed by law, the maximum mill levies above may be increased or decreased to reflect such changes. Such mill levy increases or decreases must be determined by the Districts’ Boards of Directors in good faith so that to the extent possible, the actual tax revenues generated by the new mill levies neither increase nor decrease as a result of such changes. For purposes of the foregoing, a change in the ratio of actual valuation shall be deemed to be a change in the method of calculating assessed valuation. NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that any protests or objections to the Districts’ proposed First Amended and Restated Service Plan must be submitted in writing to the City Council of the City of Thornton at or prior to the hearing, or any continuance or postponement thereof, in order to be considered. All protests and objections to the First Amended and Restated Service Plan, as proposed, shall be deemed waived unless presented in writing at the time and manner specified above. If you have a disability and need a reasonable accommodation to attend or participate in the meeting, please notify the City’s ADA Coordinator at 303-538-7245 at least eight (8) hours in advance and arrangements will be made to provide reasonable accommodation. TDD access is available through Colorado Relay at 711 or you can also contact the City Development Department by email at CityDevelopment@cityofthornton.net.

Level yellow could be weeks away BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
In mid-December, businesses across Colorado saw state officials throw them what appeared to be an extra lifeline with the arrival of the “5-Star” program to allow them to operate with expanded capacity if they followed stepped-up COVID-19 safety protocols. More than a month later, in some counties, that extra boost hasn’t materialized. And higher capacity for 5-star businesses may not arrive for weeks, one local public health leader for Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties says. Gov. Jared Polis’ unexpected announcement in late December that all of Colorado’s “level red” counties would move to level orange restrictions rendered the 5-Star program temporarily irrelevant, causing confusion for business owners and local governments. The 5-Star program allows
qualifying businesses to follow restrictions that are one level less severe than they otherwise would need to based on their county’s level on Colorado’s colorcoded COVID-19 “dial.” Before Polis’ announcement, businesses in red counties expected to get the OK to operate at the looser orange restrictions by earning 5-Star certification, which involves following strict coronavirusprevention protocols. Getting to level yellow
Citing improving virus trends, Polis on Dec. 30 told the state public-health department to move counties from red to orange effective Jan. 4 even though many didn’t meet requirements for the orange level according to the dial system. Starting just before that announcement and continuing after it, the state saw a spike in the rate of daily new COVID-19 cases. Asked whether the recent uptick was due to holiday gather-
ings or the move to level orange, Ludwig said “it was probably a combination,” noting that “we had Christmas and New Year’s and restaurants opening back up for dine-in.” The State Joint Information Center, which takes questions for the state public-health department, said there “isn’t any evidence at this time that moving counties from red to orange contributed to any significant increases.” The tide may be changing again: Since Jan. 9, the seven-day average case count has trended downward, the Joint Information Center said on Jan. 20. But the recent upward turn in data put the benefit of 5-star certification further out of reach for many counties. Although the state manually moved counties to level orange, counties still must meet the orange requirements in earnest before 5-star certified businesses can operate one level
lower — at level yellow — according to the state publichealth department. Counties should meet the orange marks for local rates of new cases, also known as a county’s “incidence rate,” which is measured over two-week periods. They also need to meet thresholds for percent of COVID-19 tests come back positive and the trend in hospitalizations. Incidence rate and the testpositivity rate should be sustained for seven consecutive days, according to the Joint Information Center. For orange counties hoping for business activity at yellow restrictions, that means tamping incidence rates down to 350 new virus cases or fewer per 100,000 people. In Douglas County as of Dec. 30, that rate was still too high at 398, but with cases and hospitalizations appearing to improve, the county was expected at the time to hit the mark within roughly a week.

level than would be possible otherwise.” “We’ve come up with an easy, centralized process to accept and approve applications and monitor business compliance,” said Adams County Manager Raymond Gonzales in the statement. “So many businesses are eager to participate and this is a way they can safely start to get back to normal.” The application is free. Businesses must submit a safety plan and outbreak mitigation plan, required by CDPHE, with their applications. Applications are subject to an on-site inspection. Businesses must maintain their certification by adhering to safety protocols, and the certification may be revoked if businesses fall out of compliance.
