Light rail extension in Lone Tree to open in May The project will bring the E, R and F lines to three new locations BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Officials from the Regional Transportation District announced Jan. 25 that the Southeast Rail Extension Project for the E, R and F lines to three locations in Lone Tree will officially open for service May 19. Light rail passengers will be able to access new stations at Ridgegate Parkway, the Lone Tree City Center and Sky Ridge Medical Center in south Lone Tree. The project has taken three years to complete at a cost of $233.1 million. “The Southeast Rail Extension allows RTD a unique opportunity to be an integral part of an overall plan to address access and mobility needs prior to development in this region,” said RTD General Manager and CEO Dave Genova. “The unprecedented collaboration and partnerships that made it possible to complete this line illustrate this region’s strong commitment to transportation.” Key figures in the development of the project spoke at the announcement
about the project’s potential impact on the community. Lone Tree Mayor Jackie Millet said the promise of the project was integral to attracting key employers in the city, including Sky Ridge Medical Center and Charles Schwab, both of which will be within walking distance of one of the new stations. “We recognize that not only is it important for the mobility of our residents and visitors and guests — that it really is a link to economic development,” Millet said. “We know it will bring more success, not just to the City of Lone Tree, but to the entire region.” Keith Simon, executive vice president of Coventry Development — the development group responsible for much of the RidgeGate area — said the project is a “game-changer” to stimulate economic development and reduce highway congestion. Simon announced Coventry plans to build an office park on a one-square-mile area near the RidgeGate station, which is projected to eventually be home to more than 10,000 employees. Simon said Coventry will build transit-oriented, mixed-use commercial and one “attainable” housing project in the 30 acres of land surrounding the RidgeGate station. The 300 acres surrounding the Lone Tree City Center Station — a sub-
area between Ridgegate Parkway and Lincoln Avenue, east of I-25 — will be developed with urban density and a downtown feel. Overall, he estimated the area east of I-25 will include 8,000 new homes and 8 million square feet of commercial development and create 30,000 jobs. Genova said the 2.3-mile rail extension will have an estimated economic impact on the community of about $22.4 billion. The City of Lone Tree contributed $25 million to the project, with an additional $3 million of inkind contributions, land and right-ofway. The Federal Transit Administration granted RTD $92 million for the project. Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality contributed a $9.4 million grant. Overall, the 2,400-square-mile transportation district encompasses an area with a population of 3.1 million people and includes almost 100 miles of track, commuter rail and light rail. Mike Fitzgerald, CEO of the Denver South Economic Development Partnership, said the project is indicative of the leaders who collaborated on the project. “This is an amazing achievement for an area that really didn’t exist 30 years ago,” Fitzgerald said. “It’s a phenomenal success story that’s helping develop this state and the whole Front Range.”

Senior Living Options Explained STAFF REPORT
Hundreds of students from more than 20 Denver metro area middle and high schools will participate in the upcoming “HOPEfull Drive.” Students are teaming up to raise awareness about the epidemic of teen depression, anxiety and suicide, and to bolster the need for mental-health resources in our communities. During the HOPEfull Drive, which runs through Feb. 10, students will share information with the community and have buckets for donations. Proceeds will benefit Robbie’s Hope Foundation. Students can
sign up to participate at https:// robbies-hope.com/#get-involved. “There is currently a frightening epidemic of teen suicide, not only in Colorado but across our nation. The HOPEfull Drive engages teens in literally ‘driving’ change by bringing awareness and fostering openness about the issues of teen depression, anxiety and suicide,” Kari Eckert, executive director of Robbie’s Hope, said in a news release. “By working collaboratively with teens to educate our community, we hope to foster dialogue to destigmatize depression, anxiety, and suicide and provide a path toward teaching our community how to start a

discussion and save a life.” Eckert added that the HOPEfull Drive is a platform to drive awareness. Colorado has one of the highest youth suicide rates in the nation, and suicide is among the leading causes of death for ages 10-18, according to a study of youth suicide. Nationally, it is the second-leading cause of death between ages 12 and 18. The full report is available at https://coag.gov/sites/default/ files/final_youth_suicide_in_colorado_report_10.01.18.pdf. A 2017 Healthy Kids Colorado Survey showed that 17 percent of all participating middle and high school students reported
considering suicide and 7 percent reported making one or more suicide attempts in the previous 12 months, the news release said. In response to alarming teen suicide rates in Colorado and across the nation, teen advocates from more than 20 high schools will participate in the HOPEfull Drive to “drive” dialogue and raise awareness about this important issue. Student teams will be out in their communities with collection buckets at various times and days.

Officials hope to split up 18th Judicial District Proposed 23rd District could bring more specialty courts to Douglas County BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Colorado’s most populous judicial district could soon become two. Some state lawmakers and county officials are declaring it’s time for the 18th Judicial District, marked by rapid population growth, a lopsided disbursement of serious crime and ideological differences, to break up. A bill to split the 18th Judicial District has not been introduced at the state Legislature but may be in the next month. Four sponsors are ready to see it through: Rep. Mike Weissman, D- Aurora; Rep. Kevin Van Winkle, RHighlands Ranch; Sen. Rhonda Fields, D- Aurora; and Sen. Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs. “I’m working with a broad number of other interested folks,” said Weissman, “to explore whether the idea of a new judicial district serving Arapahoe County makes sense.” Reports show about one in five state residents live within the 18th Judicial District. Another document predicts that if legislation to split the district is not passed this session, plans could be delayed another four years. In 1965 the 18th Judicial District comprised Arapahoe, Douglas and Elbert counties. The district added Lincoln County in 1969, and hasn’t been changed since. In 1970 its population was 180,000 and by 2018 it exceeded 1 million people. The district is projected to grow by another 350,000 people in the next 30 years. The next largest of the 22 judicial districts is the 4th Judicial District (El Paso and Teller Counties), with a population of 737,684. In the 18th district, Arapahoe County is the largest in population. It contributed 64 percent of the judicial district’s 2018 budget while accounting for nearly 70 percent of all felony crime in the district. The 23rd District The proposal calls to make Arapahoe County its own judicial district and Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln into another. The three counties would likely become the 23rd District while Arapahoe remained the 18th, although exact titles aren’t set in stone. Douglas County officials including Commissioner Lora Thomas began researching a potential split of the 18th Judicial District in August. Thomas said Douglas County wasn’t getting a fair return on investment. Much of that perspective is anchored in a report compiled by Douglas County officials and provided to Colorado Community Media. The report found Douglas County pays roughly 33 percent of district costs but accounts for less than 25 percent of felonies. About 20 percent of district prosecutors are allocated to the county. In 2017 and 2018, Douglas County was
A section of the Colorado judicial districts map. the only county in the district that paid a percentage of the budget that was greater than its percentage of felony crimes, according to the report. Counties within any district contribute to the budget based on population, but resources, namely manpower and time, are allocated based on the number of severe crimes. Simply put, serious felonies require more prosecutors than misdemeanors. The county’s report shows 81 percent of serious felonies and about 70 percent of all felonies occur in Arapahoe County and based on that, 78 percent of prosecutors are allocated there. The report also estimates Douglas, Lincoln and Elbert would pay about $857,000 less if put into a 23rd District than what they’ll contribute to the 2019 budget. Tailored to the community Passing the bill could present the chance for Douglas, Lincoln and Elbert counties to customize a district around their communities, particularly with the creation of specialty courts. All of the 18th Judicial District’s specialty courts, or problem-solving courts, are run in Arapahoe County. In Colorado, specialty courts include adult drug courts, juvenile drug courts, veterans treatment courts and more. The 18th Judicial District offers drug courts, veterans courts and a mental health court. Douglas County has a Community Justice Services program, which oversees programs like community service, the multiple offender program and the electronic in-home detention
SOURCE: DOUGLAS COUNTY
JUDICIAL DISTRICT FUNDING The following is a breakdown of the money each county contributed to funding the 18th Judicial District in 2018, along with data on the felony crimes each county accounted for that same year. Arapahoe County: $14.5 million (64 percent); 3,746 (69.5 percent) Douglas County: $7.5 million (33 percent); program. Distance to the 18th Judicial District’s specialty courts, located in Centennial, creates a barrier for people utilizing them from outside of Arapahoe County but so does docket capacity, said the Community Justice Services Director Scott Matson. “Having a new judicial district,” Matson said, means the ability to do a full analysis of what issues are in Douglas, Lincoln and Elbert counties and then being able to “set up our specialty courts around that.” Still, it’s too early to know precisely what a 23rd Judicial District would look like. Specialty courts are created at the direction of the district’s chief judge and available funds, Matson said. Executive Director of the Colorado District Attorney’s Council Thomas Raynes said by email that the council supports breaking up the 18th Judicial District for numerous reasons. Population growth is one, but “equally important is consideration of the demographic differences and growing political dispariteis between the two
1,350 (25 percent) Elbert County: $573,534 (2.5 percent); 145 (2.7 percent) Lincoln County: $126,950 (0.56 percent); 153 (2.8 percent) Sources: Douglas County, 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office largest counties in the 18th,” he said. Splitting the two into separate districts will give Arapahoe County voters “a stronger voice in choosing the criminal justice philosophies implemented in their community,” he said, as well as in Douglas, Lincoln and Elbert counties. “Quite frankly, it probably creates a very competitive election in the district that would be Arapahoe County, in which either a (Democrat) or (Republican) candidate could win,” Raynes said. The Colorado Constitution requires any bill that creates a new judicial district get a two-thirds supermajority vote in each legislative chamber to pass. Van Winkle said he is optimistic the bill will be successful this session. “It wouldn’t be introduced unless it had bipartisan support,” Van Winkle said. “It does require two-thirds majority to pass but we think the support will be there.” SEE DISTRICT, P6

DISTRICT FROM PAGE 4
‘Closer to home’ An assessment completed by the Secretary of State’s Office and obtained by Colorado Community Media found passing a bill this session is crucial to creating a new district soon. If the 23rd District is created in 2019, its district attorney could run in the next election cycle of 2020. District attorneys are all elected in the same year to four-year terms. Under this timeline, the 23rd District could be up and running by 2021. However, legislation passed in 2020, even fast-tracked bills, would give candidates little to no time to make the 2020 ballot, according to the Colorado secretary of state’s assessment. There would be other avenues toward instating a district attorney into the 23rd District if a bill doesn’t pass in 2019. A bill would need to outline a method for electing or appointing the district attorney outside the regular 2020 election, but “aside from adding potentially complicated one-time procedure to statute, there may also be constitutional issues” to this strategy, the secretary of state’s assessment says. As a result, legislation passed in 2020 or later would likely require waiting to elect the new district at-

torney until 2024, delaying the 23rd District by another four years. Creating a new district would require hiring more personnel than a new district attorney alone. Douglas County’s report says the number of staff now allocated to the three counties is not sufficient to run the 23rd District. It outlines 15 additional positions in total, including the district attorney’s at a salary of $91,000. Van Winkle said passing the bill this session would give the new district ample time to set itself up. Raynes said breaking up the district would cause a shake-up to the delivery of criminal justice services, but temporarily, calling it “short-term pain for long-term gain.” “Justice should be accessible and close to home and I’ve always believed that government closer to home is more accessible and efficient,” Van Winkle said. “A judicial branch is no different.”

Safe parking space allows internet transactions to go smoothly BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
CALM AFTER THE STORM
The Parker Police Department has created a safe space to conduct transactions between users of online classified ad sites like Craigslist or Nextdoor. The space is a well-lit parking spot under video surveillance located near the Parker Police Department at 18600 Lincoln Meadows Parkway. It was implemented to provide a space for people who make interactions on the internet with a lesser threat of being robbed or harmed in the process. The
SM
safe parking space was implemented h just before Christmas. H Josh Hans, public relations coordi- a nator for the Parker Police DepartE ment, said the idea is part of the department’s crime-prevention program.a t “In today’s world, online transactions are becoming more common, but t with them comes inherent dangers,” d C Hans said. “We can’t join them for T every transaction … but by setting up a place to conduct that transaction, it certainly limits the possibility p of someone saying they’re someone m r they’re not.” p

shut it down again, we’ve exhausted our savings,” said Chris Janssen, the president of Local 709 of the American Federation of Government Employees, the prison’s union. President Trump and Congress agreed on Jan. 25 to fund the government through Feb. 15, meaning federal employees like Janssen and roughly 300 other staffers at the prison will get back pay owed to them following the 35-day shutdown, but what happens after that is unknown. “If elected leaders keep playing games, we won’t have anywhere to turn,” Janssen said. “It’s a pressure release for right now, but it’s almost more terrifying because we can’t replenish our savings while we wait for the other shoe to drop.” The shutdown was hard on prison staffing, Janssen said, as correctional officers increasingly called in sick after coming into work for weeks without pay. Teachers and plumbers were guarding sex offenders as officers called in sick, Janssen said. “These people are supposed to be keeping the lights on or helping inmates get ready to re-integrate into society, and instead they’re guarding blocks of 200 prisoners,” Janssen said. The prison near the intersection of West Quincy Avenue and South Kipling Street houses roughly 1,000 inmates across three main camps, Janssen said. The population covers all security levels, and includes hun-

We have seen all of those here in the past.” The situation at the prison could grow worse if the shutdown resumes, Janssen said, as logjams at the Department of Justice could mean that offenders who are sentenced by judges in Denver’s federal court aren’t able to be sent to their designated prisons.

Though the partial government shutdown is over for now, staff at FCI Englewood, a sprawling federal prison, are still collecting food and household items, as the shutdown forced workers to blow through their savings - and could go back into effect. DAVID GILBERT
PRISON FROM PAGE 10
Staff members are facing scary situations in their personal lives, Janssen said. “Our standards of employee conduct mandate that we have to maintain good credit and pay our debtors on time. If we don’t, we’re automatically subject to discipline, from letters of reprimand up to firing.” Many prison staffers called in sick to drive for Uber and Lyft, Janssen said, because they could get quick cash to pay bills. “Federal employees don’t make as much money as people think,” Janssen said. “A guard here starts at $44,000 a year, but for someone paying
a mortgage and raising a family, that’s not a lot. You’ve got guys in their 30s borrowing against their retirement accounts, knowing they’re not going to be able to pay it back.” Janssen, a Navy veteran and 12-year employee of the Bureau of Prisons, said he accepted the help of friends and neighbors to feed his two young children. “It’s disgraceful,” Janssen said. “People say, ‘Oh, you’ll get your back pay eventually,’ but that doesn’t put food on my table tonight. I’ve got people dropping off soup at my house like it’s the Depression.” Janssen said he doesn’t want to wade into the politics of the shutdown. “We’re hoping the government comes to their senses and does the right thing,” Janssen said. “If I do the work, I want my pay.”

QUIET DESPERATION

f you were born after World War II and before Apple, you might have some out-offocus family photographs around the house. Unless you had a Nikon or a darkroom, and not many of us did. We had Brownies and other crummy Kodaks that took rolls of film that had to be taken to a drugstore. A week later, you’d get an envelope with 12 crummy prints and your negatives. Some of those prints were better than others, and miraculously captured a moment. You took what you got. There was no improving the prints. That’s all changed.
Almost anyone can point and shoot a camera or a phone these days, get a high resolution image, and then improve it with Photoshop or a variety of other applications. There’s even one that lets you take a clean and clean contemporary image and turn it into a crummy one that looks like it was taken after World War II and before Apple, complete with scratches. Oh, there are still some among us who couldn’t take a good photograph if Ansel Adams was standing next to them, and take pictures outdoors at high noon when the sun makes anyone’s nose look like mine. Professional photographs of my artwork
once required a controlled environment with all kinds of equipment, tripods, special lamps and filters. Now? Angela shoots in my living room with a handheld camera and nothing else nearby, except Harry at her ankles. If a color is slightly off in the resulting image, she can correct it. She does that on a computer, not in a darkroom. She doesn’t have a darkroom. I took a number of photography classes when I was in college, and everything had to be developed in a darkroom in the dark, amid trays of pungent and dangerous liquids. SEE SMITH, P13
When mistakes create opportunities for change
W LETTERS TO THE EDITOR DCSD no place for radical agenda Referring to Alex Dewind’s Jan. 24 online article “Douglas County teacher on leave following Twitter post,” most of us who follow the news are aware of Michelle Grissom, a seventh-grade social studies teacher who described a Covington Catholic High School in Kentucky student as training to be part of the “Hitler Youth.” A vile Twitter post that went viral, joining a social media mob falsely accusing students wearing “Make America Great Again” caps of harassing a Native American at a DC March of Life.

teacher salaries. A major argument for the bill was to decrease the teacher pay disparity between Douglas County and Cherry Creek, the second highest average teacher salary district in the state. Well guess what? We shouldn’t be afraid of losing teachers as long as we have teachers like Ms. Grissom to offer Cherry Creek, and if we had an accountable school board, there are probably a host of socialist teachers we would be better off unloading. Ms. Grissom was on the union’s liberal left executive board, where she felt very comfortable in this school district and secure in her position pushing her radical agenda against American values — polarizing, and to many, un-American.

that people can use to learn how to create new opportunities that are born out of mistakes and mishaps, but believe it or not, what happens many times is that people who make mistakes look for a trick of some kind, or magic way out of the problem. Well here’s the trick and the magic: taking ownership and having personal accountability. Even if by chance, our misfortune or loss came at the hands of someone or something else, out of each and every mistake, error, and failure we can find new opportunities. As many have said before, “It’s not what happens to us in this world that matters, it’s how we handle what happens to us that matters.” Mistakes were made in both games, mistakes have happened in
all of our lives, and mistakes and errors will continue to happen in life because we are human. So, we can choose to react or overreact, or we can choose to respond and look for ways that we can learn from our mistakes and create opportunities for changes, changes for the better. How about you? Are you still caught up in the mistakes and bad calls that have happened in your life, or have you figured out how to create opportunities out of those very same mistakes? I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we take ownership and personal accountability to create opportunities from our mistakes and errors, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the president of the Zig Ziglar Corporate Training Solutions Team, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

There were darkroom tricks to achieve special effects, but it was nothing like current options that can swap my head for John’s on the cover photo of “Abbey Road” and make it look authentic. All of this means a number of things. For one, everyone on Earth can be a good photographer. For another, photographs can no longer be trusted. Ostensibly, I could document my paintings myself. But I don’t and won’t because of the cost of a camera like Angela’s. The other reason is more human, and it’s why I don’t stretch my own canvases or do my own taxes. I like to work with Angela. I like to work with Pat at Meininger, who stretches my canvases, and I like to work with Harley and Amy, who do my taxes.
Nothing is better than working with someone who knows what they are doing. Those bad photos we all have are beloved by art galleries and collectors, precisely because they are primitive and grainy. Imagery of all kinds has changed. Films and commercials are full of truly unbelievable special effects. However, if you check out the Rotten Tomatoes rating for the 1933 “King Kong” and compare it with later versions, you’ll see a big difference: 1933 wins. Sometimes, in fact very often, technology does not improve art. You might even have a drawing taped to your refrigerator of crooked animals and flying pirates that you appreciate more than you would if a Chagall were taped to it.

rivia nights. Beer festivals. Running clubs. Theme parks. Symphony concerts. Quidditch teams. All are present-day examples of groups and activities inspired by the magical world of Harry Potter in which people can participate in the real world. The book and film series forged a lasting legacy — the last book was released in 2007 — and created a global community of people connected by their love of the story. Local enthusiasts say it boils down to author J.K. Rowling’s use of a wide range of characters that the reader, or film viewer,
can relate to. Strong themes of working together, standing up for what’s right, living as an outcast and never giving up inspire people in the books and in daily life, they say. The story of a young wizard caught in a battle of good versus evil spans seven books and later came to the screen in eight films (the final book was split into two movies). In 2007, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” took the Guinness World Record top spot for fastest-selling book of fiction in a 24-hour period. In 2016, Harry Potter became the most liked fictional character on Facebook. Aside from inspiring, the story

also galvanizes people. Take for example, Fanthropy Running Clubs. The organization is a virtual running group managed by the nonprofit Random Tuesday. It includes a Denver-based chapter of the Harry Potter group called Potterheads. Random Tuesday began as a Harry Potter-based running group in 2014 but has expanded by offering groups for other “fandoms” like Doctor Who and Gilmore Girls. “We are currently recognized by Facebook as the largest Harry Potter independent community,” said Keir Hansen, the organization’s communications director.

Both exhibits are on display at the Clarke Reader center, 809 15th St. in downtown Golden. The Members’ Show runs through April 21 and The Power of Process is on display until March 31. “The Members’ Show is really like open mic night for the Foothills Art Center,” said Eriq Hochuli, curator at the center. “It’s a super diverse show that remains mostly a showcase for local artists.” “More than any other, this show requires a strategy. Before we’ve grouped the show on things like genre or medium, but this year we decided to go with color,” Hochuli explained. “We thought color is similar to how a person would lay it out at home.” The Power of Process exhibit showcases 70 works of county student from kindergarten through 12th grade. Not only does it highlight just how talented students are, but it gives many a first taste of the professional art world. “The size restrictions are no more and emphasis is placed on the creative journey that students travel to create their work,” Hochuli said. “We want all the of work from both shows to balance out each other rather than competing.” For more information, visit www. foothillsartcenter.org/current.

About 65,000 have participated in the group’s Facebook discussions and events. They schedule race events online and members complete them on their own time from wherever they’re based. Proceeds go to charity. Hansen said the storyline and universe in Harry Potter revolve around creating a better world, and that appeals to people. There are also examples of groups from different backgrounds joining forces. But what is it about Harry Potter that motivates them to run for a cause? “They all found ways to be able to work toward their common goal and to better the world,” Hansen said of the series’ characters. “Our community does the same thing.” The same lessons that drive people to do philanthropic runs are ones that Kim Reeder, of Parker, passes on to students in her classes. Reeder teaches social studies for an online public school. She said the books and movies helped her when life got tough. “It’s just kind of the arc of the whole story about perseverance and what’s right and never giving up, even when all of the obstacles are stacked against you,” she said. Reeder, 35, began reading the books in high school and fell in love with the world’s aesthetic, she said. She found the books cleverly written, with enough detail that she could visualize the places, and she enjoyed the characters. “They’re really human,” she said. “They’re flawed. They’re not perfect.” Denver woman Alex Hatch, 30, said Harry Potter became her escape at age 11 when her parents were going through a divorce. She hasn’t connected to any other series like she has Harry Potter. “I think there’s a lot of correlation with what happened in the books and what happened with today’s day and age,” she said. “In the books, good prevails, so that’s a message of hope for people.” Fans flock to the Colorado Symphony when it shows the Warner Bros. and CineConcerts Harry Potter Film Concert Series, which travels globally.

been an audience favorite since it began in 2017. The concerts allow audiences to “relive the magic of the film” on a 40-foot screen “while hearing the orchestra perform each unforgettable score.” “Each installment has drawn huge crowds to Boettcher Concert Hall,” he said, “and it’s always a hot ticket with fans of all ages.” Fanthropy isn’t the only competitive way Harry Potter enthusiasts are celebrating their fandom. Alex Bihlmeyer, of Denver, leads the local Mile High Quidditch Club, part of the US Quidditch league. They play the fictional game of quidditch made famous by Harry Potter that’s turned not-so-fictional. During the game’s season, Bihlmeyer and the team of about 16 people practice for three hours every Sunday. “I loved the books when I was growing
up,” Bihlmeyer said. He related to the plots involving Harry Potter growing up as an outcast but “finally reaching a good place with a good group of friends.” When Bihlmeyer moved to Colorado roughly two years, ago, quidditch helped him find community. Reeder said she and her family celebrate in many ways. They read the books for her 2-year-old daughter. They’ve seen the Colorado Symphony play the film concert series. They visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida. It’s all a fun family experience she’s glad to share with her daughter, she said. “Throughout history, throughout modern times, there’s a few select books and/or movies,” Reeder said, “that really resonate with people. I think it’s kind of something that hadn’t been seen before.”

Live your best retirement without a mortgage payment BY KATHY MUNI SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
If you have paid off your home and have no mortgage, you have done well and should feel proud of your accomplishment. It took faithfulness and sacrifice to achieve that mile marker. Your home is likely your greatest asset, and yet the money that is in the home, your housing wealth, is tied up with no way to access it unless you sell the home. However, most seniors want to stay in their home forever. Other seniors are well into retirement and have a monthly mortgage payment that, as the years go on, feels like it is strangling them. If you have a large monthly house payment and would like to eliminate it, then you can also use the wealth in your home
to eliminate your monthly mortgage payment. Many people are in the situation where they are “house-rich, and cashpoor.” They have paid off the house, but are not enjoying retirement due to the constraints of a fixed income. The equity in your home is YOUR money. Why not access it and put it to work for you? A Home Equity Conversion Mortgage converts some of your equity into Muni a usable asset – either as a lump sum of cash, a growing line of credit, a monthly income stream, or a combination of the three. At least one borrower must be 62 years old or older, and you need to have around 50% equity in your home, so if
you have a mortgage you can still tap into your housing wealth. Income and credit qualifications are adjusted to accommodate senior homeowners, and bruised credit is often no problem. The amount of equity you can draw is established by the age of the youngest borrower, the value of the property and what is owed. Substantial equity always remains in the home. This is your housing wealth. No one owns the home but you, and you will the property to your heirs who never inherit any debt. The proceeds of a reverse mortgage are not taxable like other investment accounts, and may be used for any purpose. Many people do a reverse mortgage to plan ahead to be sure that the surviving spouse will always be able to live in the home without a mort-
gage payment. For others, the line of credit provides a safety net and easy access to funds if-and-when needed.

Get financially healthy in 2019 – Define it, develop a plan and be disciplined BY NELISHA FIRESTONE SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
When it comes to New Year’s resolutions, getting family finances under control is a big one. Whether you are retired and looking to stay on track, or managing a family and full household, there are plenty of areas to consider in putting finances on the right course. Prioritizing debt Not all debt is created equal. There’s good debt and bad debt. Good debt increases your net worth or has future value such as a home loan. If it doesn’t do that and you don’t
have cash to pay for it, it’s bad debt. Bad debt can get out of hand if not addressed. There are 2 schools of thought on prioritizing paying down bad debt. 1. Pay off highest interest debt first. This way you’re chipping away at the debt that’s costing you the most to finance. 2. Pay off lowest balances first. This gives you a sense of accomplishmentlike you’re making headway towards your goal to become debt free faster. IRA accounts (opening a new one and managing a current one) IRA’s are a great way to build a nest egg especially if you don’t have
an employer plan. The contribution limit for 2019 is increasing to $6,000 for people under age 50 and an extra $1,000 “catch up” contribution for those over 50 making their maximum contribution $7,000. Automatic savings plans The best savers are disciplined. To automate your savings is a great way to become a disciplined saver. Just like your 401K you can autosave in just about every type of account. Figure out what you can afford monthly and pay yourself first! If you don’t have it in your checking account, you’re likely to not spend it.

Eliminate high-interest debt, do home improvements with a cash out refinance BY KATHY MUNI SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
“Our debt had been growing over the years as we financed three weddings and put multiple children through college. Being able to refinance our home and pay off the high-interest credit cards was a blessing. It not only simplified our financial lives, it saved us money!” ~ KC Many homeowners are in a similar situation. When they become aware of the high interest rates they are paying on personal debt such as car loans, credit cards, and student loans the interest rates can be much greater than doing a refinance of their home mortgage. The average interest rate for credit card debt at the end of 2018 was 16.71 percent while the average 30-year mortgage rate was 4.3 percent. The average American household carries about $16,000 in credit card debt, approaching $30,000 in car loans, and many 10’s of thousands of dollars in student loans. The savings in interest can be significant. The difference between the credit card debt (16.71 percent) and the average mortgage rate in the 4 percent is over 12 percent in savings. Doing a cash-out refi can help solve

this problem of overwhelming debt. A refinance allows you to tap into the equity tied up in your home putting it to work for you. When you refinance and access some of your money, you may use it for any purpose. Many pay off debt, which means optimizing their finances. Others want to do upgrades to their home, take a vacation, buy an investment property or pay for a wedding. The choice is yours! Some of our clients save $100s and even $1,000s per month restructuring their debt by refinancing. If you are concerned that your mortto the penny to help you assess where you can cut some fat in the New Year. Saving for children’s college fund With college costs soaring- the sooner the better when it comes to saving for Jr’s college. Today, a 4-year degree at an in-state school will cost you between 25K-30K per year. Those costs are rising faster than inflation at 4 percent. Colo-
gage will start over at 30-years, we have programs that offer flex terms, so you can keep your current term. We can do just about any term between 10-30 years. If you want 23, 18 or 12 years, we can do it. If you currently have mortgage insurance, you may be able to eliminate that portion of your payment if your value has increased enough in the past few years. Refinancing is an easy process and can have the added benefit of boosting your credit score when all is said and done. If your cards are maxed out or are higher than the recommended 30 percent usage, paying them off with proceeds from a refinance can help your credit score. Also, if you have an FHA loan, refinancing has never been faster or easier with an FHA Streamline. You can lower your monthly mortgage payments - in some instances, even if you owe more than your home is worth. No appraisal is required, rates are low, and there is no income documentation required (W-2s and pay stubs). The benefit to you must be at least a 5 percent drop in your mortgage payment, and there are 15, 20, 25, and 30-year terms available, with Primary Residence and Non-owner Occupied properties
allowed. An FHA Streamline can lower your monthly mortgage payment as well as your interest rate. If you have not refinanced since HUD lowered the MIP in 2015, now is the time! You may also be able to refinance out of an FHA loan, if you qualify for a Conventional loan eliminating the mortgage insurance, assuming your home value has increased enough. The VA has a streamline process to lower your rate. You can also take advantage of this rising real estate market using a VA cash out refinance with a loan up to 100% of the current value. Interest rates are still at historical lows, but may be set to rise soon. Silver Leaf Mortgage is a broker, which means that we can seek out the very best options for you offered by a variety of lenders whether you are self-employed, or W2. Our loan officers have years of experience and will work closely with you to be sure that the refinance loan you select will best meet your needs.

SPORTS STUDENT-ATHLETE STUDENT ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT
Q&A with Jordyn Kaplan In your senior season, are you feeling nostalgic at all? Absolutely. (Two weeks ago) was our senior night, so we recognized all the seniors. There’s only four of us, including our diver. There’s two of us who have been here all four years. We’ve definitely dropped a couple along the way, but it was really good, and this year to be able to lead the team as captain has been so special.
What is your favorite race in swimming? Either the 100 (meter) breast or the 50 (meter) free. I’ve been focusing on those this season.
Do you have any idea what you want to study? I want to study biomedical engineering and eventually go into dentistry.
Jordyn Kaplan plans to swim and run track at Carthage College in Wisconsin once she graduates from Chaparral High School. Kaplan is the captain of the Wolverines swim team. NICK PUCKETT
‘Make every moment count’
If you know me, you know that… I’m super dorky. I love pickles, and I eat a pickle before every race, whether it’s swimming or running. That’s a weird thing about me. What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given? Make every moment count. I’ve really learned throughout this year and in high school in general, being a senior, this four years goes so fast. Whether it’s in the classroom or in the pool, take every moment and really make it count.
COACH’S TAKE: ‘I’ve been coaching Jordyn since she was 9. She is the best teammate. She’s always cheering for other people. She’s a super hard worker. She’s super competitive. She will not quit until she beats everyone in the pool.’ Annie Graves, Chaparral swimming coach
Hall-of-Famer Halladay ‘never ceased to amaze’
R
What are your plans after high school? I am committing to Carthage College (Kenosha, Wisconsin). I’m going to swim and run track for them.
Do you have any goals for where you want to end up? I want to break 1:08 in the 100 breast and I want to go 5:24 in the 50 free.

Chaparral swimmer Jordyn Kaplan emphasizes teamwork BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
J
ordyn Kaplan does just about everything on the Chaparral girls swim team. Kaplan, the captain of the team, is also the de facto carpool chaeufer and runs the team’s Twitter accounts. The senior sets the tone for the team’s close bond by insisting that swimming is not just an individual sport. “Anytime I need something outside the pool I can text and she’ll get it done immediately,” said coach Annie Graves. “She’s never sitting on the side thinking about her own race. She’s always doing something with the team.”
Along with being an insatiably competitive athlete — in the fall she runs cross country and in the spring, track — Kaplan is known for being one of the team’s best cheerleaders. She sees the importance of teammates supporting each other, both in and out of the water. “Although it’s individual, it’s something super special with 34 girls on the team,” Kaplan said. “There’s such a close bond outside the pool and to see it translate into the water and into your races, is something really special.” Have a suggestion for whom to feature in StudentAthlete Spotlight? Email Jim Benton at jbenton@ coloradocommunitymedia.com
Key stats | Kaplan has five first-place finishes, 10 second-place finishes and two third-place finishes this season as of Jan. 25.
oy Halladay gained fame wearing a Toronto Blue Jays and Philadelphia Phillies baseball uniform, but in these parts he looked very familiar in purple-shaded Arvada West OVERTIME baseball garb. The late Halladay was a dominating pitcher for the Wildcats, then pitched for 16 seasons in the major leagues and on Jan. 22 was elected into Jim Benton Baseball’s Hall of Fame with 85.4 percent of the vote, with 75 percent needed for election, on the first time his name was on the ballot. The two-time Cy Young winner died at the age of 40 when the light aircraft he was flying crashed into the Gulf of Mexico in November 2017. The Hall of Fame ceremonies are set for July 21 in Cooperstown, New York, and he will join Goose Gossage, a member of the 2008 class, as the other Coloradan in the Hall of Fame. Jim Capra was Halladay’s coach at Arvada West and keeps having to answer the question if he sensed he was coaching a potential Hall of Famer when Halladay played for the Wildcats between 1992-95. “Everybody asks that question, but at the time as he progressed through high school you knew he was going to be pretty good,” said Capra. “Then when he was a firstround draft pick you knew he was going to be a major leaguer but who could estimate he would be a Hall of Famer? “He was pretty coachable. He always wanted to get better. My big job was not to screw him up. It’s an honor and a privilege to be associated with him. He was pretty level-headed all the time. He was not full of himself and not arrogant.” In fact, Halladay could be a prankster at times. “Roy came to practice one day with a cast on his arm,” recalled Capra. “He told everybody he fell down trying to dunk a basketball. He got our trainers to put a full type cast on his arm. SEE BENTON, P21

“Everybody was panicking. At the end of practice he cut it off. We always told kids not to play basketball because they were going to get hurt so he comes to practice with a cast on. He played on the varsity basketball team. He was a heck of a basketball player.” Halladay was 26-2 in three seasons at Arvada West and the Wildcats were state champions in 1994 and runnersup the next season. Ralston Valley baseball coach Brad Madden was a teammate of Halladay’s and friend. “He was just one of the guys,” said Madden. “His seriousness was dedicated when he was on the mound. When he played first or got to DH that’s when he was just part of the squad and got to let loose a little bit. He had great sense of humor, and like everyone says he was hardest worker and loved being part of it, and that’s why he did basketball and ran cross country. “He liked being a part of a team atmosphere. He ran cross country just to stay in shape and then he became pretty good at it. Everything he did he was good at. He never ceased to amaze us. He could have competed in football but he didn’t want to get hurt.” Halladay and Madden played together with mostly the same group of players from little league to high school.
13 points, six rebounds, three assists and a steal in the win over Castle View. • The fifth-ranked hockey team scored five times in the first period and went on to collect a 10-5 win over No. 6 Mountain Vista on Jan. 21. Alex Harlan had four goals and three assists for seven points and Dylan Florit had a pair of goals and three assists for five points in the Vista game. JT Waufle had a power-play goal but the team was outshot 39-15 in a 6-1 loss to top-ranked Regis Jesuit on Jan. 25. The team held a 53-18 advantage in shots on goal in a 9-1 victory over Pueblo County on Jan. 26. Harlan had two goals and three assists and Michael Gaudio had a pair of goals and two assists.

For me playing shortstop it was kind of boring because no right-hander could ever pull him. They would hit it to the other side because they could never get around it. He made my life a lot easier at shortstop. He was dominating from about 10 years old. When he joined our Little League team that was the end of my pitching career.” Madden got a chance to hit against Halladay once in a while. “When we would scrimmage and stuff,” he explained. “Everybody talked about his fastball in high school and he had a dominating fastball. But he would kind of give you that little smirk when he had that knuckle curve coming. At that age, that knuckle curve he threw was pretty scary.” Halladay was the 17th overall pick in the 1995 MLB draft. He had a career 203-105 record with a 3.38 earned run average, with 2,117 strikeouts in 2,749.1 innings pitched. He tossed a perfect game for the Phillies on May 29, 2010, and followed with a post-season no-hitter on Oct. 6, 2010, against Cincinnati in a National League Division series. Halladay’s wife, Brandy, expressed thanks for herself and sons Braden

January 21, 2019
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Seeing the silly side of some really ridiculous situations helps give the Lamb a new perspective on how to handle them. Some important contacts can be made this weekend. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Try to complete your outstanding tasks by midweek. This leaves you free to take advantage of new possibilities — both professional and personal — opening up by week’s end. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) With both your creative side and your energy levels rising this week, you should be able to tackle that too-long-neglected project again. A family member might have important news. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) An explanation you requested seems to be more confusing than enlightening. You should insist on clarifications now, rather than deal with problems that might arise later. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Your energy levels might be ebbing a bit. But that’s no excuse for taking catnaps when you could be working on those unfinished tasks. There’ll be time to curl up and relax by week’s end. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) It’s a good time to get those ideas out of your head and into a readable format if you hope to have them turned into something doable. A good friend is ready with worthwhile advice.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Careful — you might be stepping into dangerous territory if you decide to “exaggerate” the facts too much. Remember: The truth speaks for itself and needs no embellishment. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Although your workplace successes have earned you many admirers, there are some colleagues who are not among them. Be careful how you proceed with your new project. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) You might have to go into great detail to explain why you’re currently reluctant to make changes to an already prepared plan. Be sure you have all the facts to back yourself up. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Travel plans might still be uncertain. But instead of getting upset about the delay, open yourself up to other possibilities, and begin checking out some alternative destinations. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Changing conditions might require you to alter some of your plans. While you might be agreeable to this, be prepared with explanations for those who do not want changes made. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Although you might have to deal with some detractors who aren’t too kind in their critiques, you gain points when you’re willing to stand up and defend your work. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a gift for creating a warm and loving environment between yourself and others.
