As many large retailers struggle, cities seek solutions Colorado municipalities depend heavily on revenue from sales taxes

Shoppers visit Englewood’s Kmart on one of its final days.

Small Business Saturday on its way

As old-guard retailers shutter stores and lay off workers in the face of shifting consumer habits, Colorado municipalities are in a precarious position due to an unusual tax structure that depends mightily on retail sales taxes.

Bryan Archer, the director of finance for the City of Arvada, said the strong economy may be temporarily masking the problem, and another economic downturn could have severe consequences for governments.

“We are scared to death that as soon as everything slows down around here, our growth will be minuscule and we’ll lose tax base over time,” Archer said.

“It could make it really difficult for cities to meet peoples’ needs.”

Even amid a gangbusters Colorado and U.S. economy, with stocks soaring and unemployment at a 17-year low in October, recent years have not been kind to brick-and-mortar retailers. Brands like J.C. Penney, Sears, Macy’s and Gander Mountain have closed dozens of locations — including many in the metro area and across the state. Englewoodbased Sports Authority went defunct last year. Englewood’s Kmart closes this month, leaving the Arvada store as the last metro area location.

Nearly unique among states, Colorado towns and cities derive much of their operating revenues from locally imposed sales taxes, according to Phyllis Resnick, lead economist at the Colorado Futures Center, a Colorado State University-based think tank. The arrangement maintains local control and keeps property taxes low, but could portend fiscal disaster if current trends continue.

The scope of the trend depends on whom you ask: A report from international financial services company Credit Suisse found that 8,640 stores would be closed nationwide by the end of 2017, eclipsing the 6,200 that closed in 2008 at the peak of the Great Recession.

An industry analyst report, Retail-

For those looking to keep their money local this holiday season, the national Small Business Administration touts Small Business Saturday, which encourages shoppers to patronize small businesses in their area on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, which also happens to be the day after Black Friday.

This year, the day falls on Nov. 25.

The SBA published the following tips for putting your money where your heart is: • Commit to making at least one purchase from a locally owned small business retailer.

Get to know the owner, and make your gift more meaningful by sharing their story as part of what you give your loved ones.

• Enjoy the experience. Travel outside your comfort zone — and away from your computer screen — to discover an out-of-the ordinary shopping district with some trendy local stores.

• Take part in Small Business Saturday on social media, using the hashtag #ShopSmall to amplify your support. If you find a great small business retailer with unique products, Tweet or Facebook your find so others can enjoy it too.

• When you open your gifts, start a conversation about which one came from the most distinctive and creative sellers. This can make for great debate over eggnog or your holiday drink of choice.

American Express maintains a database of local businesses with special deals for Small Business Saturday at americanexpress.com/us/small-business/ shop-small/

Next Store Performance Pulse, found year-over-year store traffic declined 5.5 percent in July, continuing a long-term slide. However, industry analyst group IHL released a report in August reporting that retailers will open a net of 4,000 new locations in 2017.

Black Friday — the deep-discount day at many retailers that follows Thanksgiving and kicks off the holiday shopping season — continues to vastly outpace Cyber Monday, its online alternative. Black Friday sales totaled more than $650 billion last year, compared to Cyber Monday’s $6.6 billion, according to the National Retail Federation.

Economists like Resnick and other Colorado experts, though, say that online shopping and shifting consumer habits may come to bear on municipal finances. As shoppers increasingly look to online retailers who can often skirt local sales taxes, the ripple effects of the so-called Retail Apocalypse may force governments — and citizens — to re-evaluate how they tax themselves.

Changing habits “We’re seeing a seismic shift in the way people shop,” said Robert Golden, president and CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce, which represents more than 650 businesses across four counties. “The appeal of the mall and shopping has lost a lot of its zest for a lot of people.”

Golden attributed the shift in part to what he calls the “middle-class squeeze” — housing and education costs have soared, and wages have largely failed to keep pace, eating up

discretionary spending and pushing middle-class earners toward online bargains.

The trouble is that many online retailers don’t collect sales tax on behalf of municipalities, Resnick said.

“We’ve said we have to solve this problem before it solves us,” Resnick said.

Some online retailers, such as Amazon, have agreed to impose sales tax on purchases, based on the shipping address of the recipient, Resnick said.

However, the agreement doesn’t apply to Amazon’s third-party vendors.

The company says it hosts more than 100,000 vendors who do more than $100,000 each in sales annually, amounting to more than $10 billion a year.

Resnick said online retailers are hesitant to enter into taxing agreements in places like Colorado, where the patchwork of taxing authorities could land sellers in hot water with auditors.

“Another part is the tradition that we don’t tax the internet,” Resnick said. “People start to think it’s a tax increase. Technically the purchaser is liable to pay local sales tax, but the state has not enforced that. At the local level, each city would have to.”

Multiply the number of online retailers by the number of municipalities and the scope of the dilemma becomes clear, Resnick said.

Resnick and her team run models that examine the state’s financial sustainability in coming decades based on current trends, and present possible scenarios to address problems.

MY NAME IS

WILLIAM POWELL

Proud Coloradan by way of Tennessee and Vietnam

CALM AFTER THE STORM

My service I was born and raised in Tennessee and I joined the army in 1962. I served at Fort Campbell Kentucky. I went from there to Korea, and I went to Vietnam when it was a secret, still classified. They called us “advisers.”

My time in the military was hell.

At first it was great — I didn’t have anything better to do, so I joined right out of high school to become a patriot.

While I was in there, it opened my eyes to camaraderie and friendship.

It didn’t matter what color you were, you were a brother. I was in the 101st Airborne Division. I enjoyed it until I went overseas. I volunteered to go to Vietnam because it was so cold in Korea. I was up on the DMZ, the demilitarized zone.

Everything from the time I entered Vietnam is a blur. I suppressed it. My wife was watching a documentary about Vietnam on PBS a month or so ago, and I couldn’t deal with it. I’m just glad I’m alive.

SM

The home front When I first came back, I was so proud to be alive and home... People started treating us so bad I had to stop wearing my uniform. I left Tennessee and went to Michigan, trying to get away from those Southern attitudes.

Tennessee was still very segregated at that time.

I tried to pick myself up. I went to work in the automobile plants. I joined a youth group called Young Life. They recruited me to be a director for one of their programs, and that brought me to Colorado.

The Colorado lifestyle This is paradise for me. I love it here.

I love the people — everyone treats me

Every time I’ve been back east of the Mississippi, it’s still depressing...

People still struggle back there.

I’ve been in Littleton 17 years. I’ve been married to my new wife for three b years. I’ve got a son who lives in Colo- 1 rado Springs.

The attitude toward veterans is more positive now. From my days in Tennessee to now, that’s, what, 50 years?

That’s how long it’s taken for people to acknowledge that we went there thinking we were going to stop communism.

But when we got there, we realized we weren’t there to do anything but survive. My cousin who went, he was killed the first week.

People say I look younger than 72, and that’s because I take care of myself. An old man told me once, “Son, if you’re going to live long, you better live clean.”

Addicts to two of the tastiest legal vices — Starbucks and pho, a Vietnamese soup — will appreciate the changes coming to Woodlawn Shopping Center at 1500 W. Littleton Blvd.

The shopping center will soon host a pho restaurant where Blueberry’s Bakery and Café used to be on the center’s west side. A three-lane bank kiosk building is likely to be torn down and replaced with a Starbucks

in the coming year.

The center is anchored by Arc Thrift Store, which recently opened in the distinctive swoop-roofed old Safeway building formerly occupied

by Savers Thrift Store.

Plans to demolish the bank kiosk at the center’s north side to replace it with a Starbucks are proceeding apace, said Heather Descagnia, the vice president of development for United Growth Capital Management, which owns the L-shaped strip of stores under a subsidiary called Cadence Littleton Co.

Volunteers deliver Thanksgiving meals to metro-area seniors

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Boxes, shopping bags, open car trunks and some two dozen volunteers in blue shirts formed a bustling scene in front of the Integrated Family Community Services building to get Thanksgiving meals to seniors in need.

“To not do it just doesn’t make sense,” said Brian Counterman, an Allstate agency owner in the Littleton area.

Counterman helped pull together a partnership that earned Integrated Family $35,000 in grant money from the Allstate Foundation — $1,000 for each Allstate agent or licensed sales professional who volunteered. The amount of $35,000 was the cap for the offer, but more staff, friends and family showed up. As many as 50 volunteers pitched in help at the Nov. 15 event.

Volunteers organized, packaged and delivered food to 90 residences in Englewood, Littleton, Sheridan, Centennial and Highlands Ranch, said Todd McPherson, development director for Integrated Family.

Rob Mathes, 38, arrived about 9 a.m. to help make sure families can get together over food the volunteers put on their plates, Mathes said.

“I grew up in kind of a lowincome community,” said Mathes, an Aurora Allstate agency owner.

“I’ve had family members who needed help in their lives, so this was a no-brainer.”

Integrated Family also provided 450 food boxes to families and some seniors on Nov. 18, McPherson said.

The Allstate Foundation gives grants to organizations to address domestic violence, support youths, help with disaster preparedness, fight hunger and support other causes.

Henri’s Jewelry bids farewell after 83 years Hometown favorite gleams its last as owners prepare to travel DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Karl and Robin Tanke lock up Henri’s Jewelry for the last time toward the end of the year, they’ll be closing the door on a Littleton mainstay that has been connecting people with beloved jewelry and watches since Bonnie and Clyde were on the loose.

Henri’s, started in 1934 by Latvian immigrant Henri Grusin, will wind up its days in a nondescript storefront in Suite 131 at 191 W. Mineral Ave., across town from its beginnings on Main Street. Karl’s father Keith bought the shop from Grusin in 1971, and sold the shop to Karl and Robin in 1997.

The shop still means a lot to its longtime customers.

“It really has that small-town feel,” said Becky Hall, whose husband worked with Karl to find her the perfect wedding ring. “Karl and Robin have been very kind to us.”

Karl and Robin, both pushing 60, say they want to travel the world while they still can.

“Still, though, I think I’ll feel pretty lost the first time I don’t have to wake up and come open the shop,” Robin said. “I’ve got mixed feelings, because we love our clients, and they seem to love us too.”

Karl Tanke swaps out a battery in a customer’s watch.

Karl is a certified master watchmaker. “When I need to make parts for an old mechanical watch, I can,” Karl said.

“People don’t like to pay for them, though.”

The Tankes aren’t sure when their last day in business will be, but they suspect it will be shortly after Christmas. In the meantime, everything must go.

RETAIL FROM PAGE 2

“We’ve looked at the possibility of taxing services,” Resnick said.

“Services don’t migrate online. Fixing your house, cleaning your pool — those can’t dry up like brick and mortar stores can.”

Resnick said another contributing factor of the Retail Apocalypse is an aging society. As people have fewer children and the age of the general populace climbs, spending on material goods drops. Service taxes would make sense under such conditions, she said.

“The only other places to generate revenue would be income or property taxes,” Resnick said. “But we have a prohibition on local income tax in Colorado.”

And hiking property taxes is pretty unpopular, she said.

No easy fix Tax reform is inevitable, said Archer, the Arvada official. Like many metro municipalities, more than half of Arvada’s revenue comes from sales taxes. “(Tax reform efforts will) have to be organic and come from the citizens,” Archer said. “They’ll need to want better roads or parks.”

Amazon’s agreement to collect sales taxes for cities is helping, but it doesn’t fix the problem.

“I’d love to say it’s problem solved, but Amazon isn’t even 20 percent of the online market,” Archer said.

Arvada takes the relatively rare

approach of taxing groceries, Archer said, which has softened the blow.

“We have five King Soopers and multiple Safeways,” Archer said. “People still buy groceries here even though they threaten not to.”

Government budgets in Colorado are already tightly constrained by the TABOR amendment, Archer said, with funding for education and other government services already anemic despite a robust economy. TABOR — the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights — was enacted in 1992, and it sets a cap on government spending and requires a popular vote for tax increases.

The shift toward online retail could have further fallout as the impact comes to bear on the labor market, Resnick said.

Nationally, the retail sector has lost jobs every month in 2017, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data.

The bright side It’s not all bad news, said Golden, of the South Metro Chamber, which is based at the Streets at SouthGlenn shopping center in Centennial.

“You can’t find a parking spot on weekends,” Golden said of the shopping center. “Small retailers, those with something unique to sell, can do very well. They have less overhead, less expense and less inventory.”

Millennials increasingly seek out localized lifestyles, where they can obtain the necessities of life without having to travel far, Golden said.

“I believe there will always be a place for the small shop,” Golden said.

“As long as people like walking down the street and popping into stores, they should survive.”

Way down under a lot of wrapping, the core of Christmas is still there QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

I

f you are full of kringle and nog, I don’t want to bring my wet blanket into it very far, even though it’s tempting.

The Christmas season once lasted a week or two. Then a month. Now it’s two months.

(And if you watch home shopping channels, it’s six months.)

Christmas music in November is wrong. I can avoid it in my home. I can’t avoid it in stores.

Everyone in America does not celebrate Christmas.

Everyone in America who

celebrates Christmas does not celebrate it in the same way.

Moneymakers aren’t interested in the illusion of rationality.

However, I was delighted to hear that Black Friday is losing its mojo.

I am happy for the employees, mostly, who have had to work at odd hours just to serve ravenous appetites for deep discounts on must-have electronics and peeing dolls.

Beneath my gruff exterior is a gruff interior. Beneath my gruff

interior is a soft spot for memories, and a wistfulness about some things that have been diminished through the manipulations of others — to an extreme.

I am old enough to know that’s how we do things around here.

Some weddings, for example.

The national average for a wedding day in 2016 was $35,329, according to Fortune magazine.

The typical cost to have a justice of the peace marry you is $50 to $100.

I may have told this story before.

F

Aging leads to redundancy. But it’s the best Christmas memory I have.

We drove Santa Claus home in a Buick.

My father sold Buicks in Uniontown, Penn., in the early 1950s.

There was a Christmas parade.

I wish I had photographs. I am sure it was simple and sweet and half Frank Capra and half Diane Arbus.

California, Davis, and University of Miami study found an association between gratitude and a person’s well-being. During a journaling exercise with two groups, those who wrote about the positive occurrences were 25 percent happier than those who wrote about negative occurrences. People with gratitude were also found to experience fewer aches and pains, sleep better at night, and exercise more often.

Cultivating gratefulness takes practice, but it’s easy to do. By using

what Charles M. Shelton, Ph.D., calls a Daily Gratitude Inventory (DGI), you can develop a lifelong habit of practicing gratitude. A DGI is a written, daily examination of the blessings in our lives. Whether you journal about your blessings or keep a list, putting them to paper keeps them fresh in your mind. Doing this practice before bedtime sets the mood for a good night’s sleep.

hanksgetting? Sounds like one of those made-up holidays, doesn’t it? We all know there is no such holiday as Thanksgetting — well maybe not technically, but quite possibly a twist on the traditional holiday of ThanksWINNING giving.

WORDS On Thanksgiving we typically share our gratitude for all we have been blessed with over the past year. We give thanks for the people in our lives, especially those sitting around the dining-room table with us. We show our appreciation for all of the Michael Norton opportunities we have been given and we cherish the days leading up to Thanksgiving just as much as the holiday itself.

The attitude of gratitude is something I have written about quite a bit over the years as I have been told that gratitude is one of the healthiest of all human emotions. When we exhibit gratitude for the people in our lives and for the gifts we have been blessed with, we usually continue to experience greater relationships, and some say that we may have even more to be grateful for.

Zig Ziglar’s most famous quote is this, “You can have everything in life that you

Here are other ways to cultivate a spirit of gratitude.

Experience the Good Be present and use your senses to savor the world around you. Breathe in the smell of a roaring fire, pinecones, and hot apple pie. Enjoy the sight of flickering lights strung on lampposts downtown. Listen to the sweet sound of the children’s choir performing at a packed mall. Notice the feel of soft ear muffs and fur-lined gloves against your skin. Savor the taste of freshlybaked butter cookies.

Embrace People Feelings of love and gratitude are contagious. Spend time with people who make you smile and feel good.

Put your best, positive foot forward to make others feel welcome.

Enjoy Nature Colorado is nature’s wonderland.

Fill your spiritual well with a brisk, cool walk or a leisurely morning hike.

Breathe in the fresh air, observe your surroundings and focus on something you are grateful for.

Say No and Then Say Yes During the holidays, it’s easy to over-schedule and burn out from busyness. You don’t have to cross off every

want, just as long as you help enough other people get what they want.” You see, here is where we turn gratitude upside down. Not only are we grateful for all that we do receive, but this gives us the opportunity to experience gratitude by helping others. I mean really, how awesome does it feel when we help someone else out, donate time, give charitably and cheerfully to a great cause? It feels fantastic, doesn’t it?

I am sure that we have all experienced some form of Thanksgiving holiday where we sit around with our family and share all the things we are grateful for. We hear things like, “I am grateful for my family.” Or, “I am grateful for my job.” Maybe we hear things like being grateful for the meal being served, or some people may express appreciation for the time off and watching football or movies on Thanksgiving. When we stop and think about it, we really do have so much to be thankful for beyond the brief examples given here.

Now what if our answers were slightly different? “I am so grateful that I had a chance to help a person stranded on the roadside with a flat tire.” “I sure do appreciate being asked to help serve meals at the homeless shelter.” “I am feeling blessed that my business trip was canceled so I could help out more around the office, at home, and at church this week.”

What we get back from giving out is

item on your checklist and please every friend and family member. It’s okay to say no to the activities that lead to exhaustion and stress. Say yes to what you love and enjoy. Fill your days with activities and people who make you happy.

Give Back Feeling fortunate – or not? Now is a good time to use your time, talent, and heart to make life better for another.

Volunteer at a local soup kitchen or shelter not just on Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve, but throughout the holiday season and after. Brighten the holidays for a local child by dropping off a toy at a toy drive, such as Covenant Village of Colorado’s Toys for Tots benefit luncheon on Dec. 5. Call 877-341-0295 or visit www.covenantcolorado.org for more information.

It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of holiday planning, shopping and completing our to-do lists. It doesn’t have to be that way.

Pause and focus on your blessings. By practicing gratefulness, you’ll experience holidays filled with joy, peace and happiness.

almost always so much more powerful to us personally and professionally when it comes to the feeling and attitude of gratitude.

The best part about this, and as the people who are constantly giving out can share with us, is that they never do any of it with any expectation of receiving anything in return. They never say, “I am helping out here because I know I will need help one day myself.” That never happens. People who give from the heart, those who give charitably and cheerfully, know full well that the gift of gratitude that they experience simply comes from the doing and the giving. And when Thanksgetting rolls around each year, these folks already know what they are grateful for, the chance to receive that feeling and sense of appreciation and accomplishment for doing what comes very naturally.

So how about you? Are you celebrating Thanksgiving or Thanksgetting?

Because as Zig said, “You really can have everything in life you want, just as long as you help enough other people get what they want.”

I would love to hear all of your Thanksgiving or Thanksgetting stories at gotonorton@gmail.com.

And when we remember it really is all about the other people in our lives and all of the blessings we receive when we do give back, it absolutely will be a better than good week.

When the time came, Santa said, “Please take me home.”

My father said, “OK, Ed, uh, Santa.”

Santa lived a couple of blocks from us.

I wish I had kept a journal. This would have been my entry that night.

“I had the time of my life tonight.

There I was, in a Buick Skylark with Santa. He looked like he had lost some weight. Maybe the holiday stress. He smelled a little funny too. I can’t put my finger on it, but it might have been Maker’s Mark.”

Much later in life, when I was reevaluating Natalie Wood’s life and death — among other things, I drank my way through Decembers.

The month had turned into an inexplicable monster, no longer enjoyable. I drowned out the sounds of it.

Wood (born Natalia Nikolaevna Zakharenka) was 8 when she costarred in “Miracle on 34th Street.”

Precocious and a Christmas curmudgeon, until, well, watch it for yourself.

Wood was 31 when she made “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice,” a very different kind of film than “Miracle on 34th Street.”

Twelve years later, Wood died, and the cause is still in question. Her life went from Santa’s knee to a Catalina Island boat trip, and in between the waters were choppy, like they are for most of us.

Do you want to know a secret? Every December, I watch one of those two films.

Raising the

coffee bar

Alcohol adds some flavor to coffee shops

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Kyle Gammage is behind the bar at The Bluegrass Coffee and Bourbon in Olde Town Arvada, he sees three kinds regulars — those who come in for their morning coffee, those who come in for a happy hour drink and a bite, and those who just hang out all day.

That’s the benefit of a coffee bar business — there’s something for someone all day.

“It’s all about the atmosphere here, which is different than a traditional coffee shop,” said Gammage, coffee manager at The Bluegrass, 7415 Grandview Ave. “There’s a little more camaraderie here than you get with the bar vibes.”

Coffee bars blend two craft cultures — coffee and alcohol, such as beer, wine and whiskey.

Both scenes include people who

are passionate about their beverages and are looking for the best quality and local purveyors.

“When I first started, I worked with a local winery to offer those kinds of options to our customers,” said Shawn Manzanares, owner of Highlands Cork and Coffee, 3701 W. 32nd Ave., Denver.

“People just like the ability to drink alcohol at a coffee place.”

The Bluegrass and Highlands Cork are just two examples of a model that is spreading throughout the metro area — Black Eye (LoHi), Drip (Denver), Thump (Denver) and Jake’s Brew Bar (Littleton) are also serving coffee and alcohol, which is something Starbucks has experimented with as well.

At The Bluegrass, bar manager Ryan McDermott and bourbon education specialist Carsten Anderson make sure guests SEE COFFEE, P15

The Bluegrass Coffee and Bourbon Lounge features more than 120 bourbons for customers to sample.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SCOTCH, WHISKEY AND BOURBON When it comes to the difference between scotch, whiskey and bourbon, it’s both geographic and about ingredients.

Whiskey is defined as a type of distilled alcoholic beverage made from various fermented grain mashes, including barley, rye, wheat and corn. It is usually aged in wooden casks.

Scotch is whiskey made in Scotland, while bourbon is whiskey made in the U.S., usually Kentucky.

Scotch is made mostly from malted barley, while bourbon is distilled from corn.

t’s always better to catch your favorite musicians at a concert in a small venue — the smaller the better. It provides a feeling of intimacy, of communing directly with the artist.

One of the best venues in the metro area to see some local artists, and national musicians who are starting to break into the scene, is the Hi-Dive, located at 7 S. Broadway.

At 8 p.m. Nov. 24, the venue is celCOMING to simultaATTRACTIONS ebrating neous milestones at its Fifth and 14th Anniversary Party.

The concert is in honor of 14 years of the Hi-Dive, and five years under its current ownership.

“When I used to play in punk bands in my teens around Clarke Reader Denver, I always said owning and booking my own music venue was my dream job,” said Curtis Wallach, owner of the Hi-Dive. “And it still is, even though the reality of it is far different than I assumed it would be.”

The show features six bands: Ned Garthe Explosion, Sleep Union, Extra Gold, Slynger, Really Good Bad Boy Club and Five Mile Woods.

Their genres are as eclectic as their names imply. Extra Gold is influenced by honky tonk and outlaw country, while Slynger blends surf rock with folk and alternative sounds.

You never know what you’re going to find at the Hi-Dive, and that’s something worth celebrating.

“The bands are indicative of the diversity of Hi-Dive’s overall calendar,” Wallach said. “We love the folks who love us. They’re a great group to party with.”

Support local artists, burgeoning school band High school marching band is often a first, and all important, foray for budding musicians into live performance, working as a team and honing their craft.

To support the band and color guard programs at Arvada High School, the first annual Arvada Fair for the Band will be held at the school, 7951 W. 65th Ave., from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Nov. 24, and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Nov. 25.

The Bluegrass was named one of America’s top 80 best bourbon bars by “The Bourbon Review” magazine.

At the Highlands Cork, guests can get an Irish coffee, but they also do martinis, wines, kombucha (fermented tea) and one beer on tap.

In the true spirit of the blending of coffee and bar culture, many of these business offer food. For the breakfast crowd, Highlands Cork offers a wide range of options, including omelets, and does paninis for lunch.

“At this kind of job, you have to be a multi-tasker, and now how to do everything, from being a barista and bartender and more,” Manzanares said. “I’m always looking for ways to move the concept forward and (looking) at ways to change things.”

Consumer safety group unveils its ‘worst toys’ list Nonprofit organization provides information about possible hazards ASSOCIATED PRESS

Fidget spinners, a plastic Wonder Woman battle sword and a remote-controlled Spider-Man drone are among the toys topping a consumer safety group’s annual list of worst toys for the holidays.

World Against Toys Causing Harm, or WATCH, unveiled the top 10 list Nov. 14 at a Boston children’s hospital.

The nonprofit organization has been releasing the lists for more than four decades to inform consumers about potential toy hazards.

The Toy Association, an industry trade group, dismissed the list as “needlessly frightening’’ to parents because all toys sold in the U.S. meet “rigorous’’ safety standards. It also criticized the organization for not testing the toys it focuses on.

National toy safety standards are

Happy 90th Birthday!

Frank Taylor will be 90 on December 2, 2017. Please help him celebrate by sending cards to: 3455 So. Corona St., Apt.524 Englewood, CO 80113

“inadequate,’’ as can been seen by the high number of recalls each year, WATCH President Joan Siff said.

The nonprofit says there have been at least 15 recalls representing nearly 2 million units of dangerous toys since last December.

Siff stressed the toys named each year have common hazards that the group sees year after year. She pointed to the “Pull Along Pony’’ by Tolo Toys that’s marketed for children over age 1 but has a 19-inch cord.

“We don’t need a testing lab to know that’s a strangulation and entanglement hazard,’’ she said.

With consumers increasingly doing their holiday shopping online, it’s more important than ever to have the most current information about the safety of a toy online, Siff said.

For example, Hallmark’s Disneythemed “Itty Bittys’’ plush stacking toy for babies was recalled over the summer due to fabric pieces that posed a choking hazard.

But the toy still is readily available online because many web sales — particularly consumer-to-consumer and secondhand transactions — are rarely monitored for recalls, Siff noted.

Among the other toys that made this year’s list is Nerf ’s “Zombie Strike’’ crossbow, which the organization says poses the risk of eye and face injuries because it uses a pres-

surized, pull back lever to shoot soft projectiles.

Razor’s “Heel Wheels’’ are strapped onto children’s shoes to turn them into improvised roller skates but pose a burn risk because they include “real sparking action.’’

And “Slackline’’ is a tightropelike device by Brand 44 meant to be anchored between two trees that WATCH says can lead to severe injury and death.

‘Seussical’ is whimsical musical delight on Littleton stage

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The entire stage floor is painted in bright swishes of color, so one practically dances to one’s assigned seat at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center (scenic design by Michael Duran) to await the appearance of Cat in the Hat, Horton Gertrude McFuzz, the Whos and other characters we know and love.

“Seussical,” the musical by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (coconceived by that pair with help from Monty Python’s Eric Idle), is the Littleton theater’s choice for the holidays — directed with a tongue firmly in cheek by Robert Wells and perfect for family outings. (Or for grandparents, out on their own!) We are told that Wells wisely chose the short version, so run time is about 90 minutes, including intermission.

A familiarly shaped red and white striped lampshade hangs on a suspended light fixture at center stage.

Music begins and in strides the versatile Charlie Schmidt, who pops on that hat and becomes the whimsical Cat in the Hat (as well as a number of other central characters sporting the same red and white striped socks.)

Horton the Elephant (Brian Murray) appears, concerned about a faint cry for help that’s coming from a flower — a tiny voice from a creature “no bigger than a speck of dust.” (A pitch for

IF YOU GO The musical “Seussical” runs through Dec. 24 at Town Hall Arts Center, 2450 W. Main St. in downtown Littleton.

Performances: 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays; 2 p.m. Sundays and Saturdays Nov. 25 and Dec. 2; 6:30 p.m. Sunday Dec. 10. Tickets: 303-7942787, townhallartscenter.org.

timid Who parents worry that JoJo thinks too much!

Music director Donna Debreceni orchestrated and recorded the bouncy score and choreographer Kelly Kates created dance moves for all — from wee Whos to a loud trio of spangled birds, to a bumbling elephant — and of course, that nimble Cat, who weaves it all together.

Sour Kangaroo (Cassie Lujan, who can really belt out a song), the Wickersham Brothers and a gang of rude monkeys all introduce a naughty/negative note, while Gertrude McFuzz, with her single tail feather, introduces another concept to think about — be careful what you wish for.

Mayzie La Bird (Alison Vance), a vain, self-centered sparkly bright blue creature with plentiful tail feathers, leads a trio of tropical feathered individuals, who mock poor Horton.

Mayzie even leaves her egg for him to hatch while she splits for sunny climes — and he patiently sits and sits …

Bucks spoiling for a fight Deer mating season sparks aggressive behavior, state warns

Open a New CD or Money Market Account TODAY!

BY COLORADO PARKS AND WILDLIFE

Throughout Colorado, deer are in the midst of their mating season and Colorado Parks and Wildlife is reminding residents to take precautions to avoid conflicts.

“Buck deer can be aggressive and lose their usual wariness of people at this time of year,” said Patt Dorsey, southwest regional manager for Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

During the “rut” bucks are territorial and loaded with testosterone. They may attack people that appear to be competitive rivals. Deer can also see dogs as threats. In past years, bucks have gored people and dogs. If you see deer in your neighborhood keep your distance.

Never attempt to get close to deer, never feed them and never try to pet them.

Bucks in the rut may also spar with and become tangled in swing sets, volleyball nets, bicycles, vegetable-wire cages, hoses, etc.

“We’ve seen bucks hung up in things like hammocks, clothes lines and plastic fencing,” Dorsey said. “When that happens it’s very stressful on the animal and sometimes fatal. It can also be dangerous for people who might come in contact with a deer that is in a stressed-out condition.”

So now is the time to take a look at

Make Your Money Work Better for You or Your Business

As fall and winter progress, deer move to lower elevations in search of food and water sources.

PHOTO COURTESY OF CDOT your yard, bring in the summer toys and check if there are other things that can snare deer. If items can’t be removed, CPW recommends tying long strands of brightly colored surveyor’s tape to them which might help to keep the animals away.

People displaying holiday decorations and lights are also asked to exercise caution. Lights should be attached firmly to structures, or strung at least eight feet off the ground. Avoid draping lights loosely on top of shrubbery or wrapping lights around tree trunks.

If you see an animal with items stuck in its antlers call the nearest CPW office. Do not approach the animal or attempt to cut them off.

The rut for deer usually continues until late December.

Drivers are also reminded to slow down and be on the lookout for deer on highways. Deer have migrated to winter range and are likely to be close to major roadways at this time of year.

Eagles will field a young team on the court Just one Heritage boys varsity veteran returns this season

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Sweat flowed freely as Heritage boys basketball coach Jentry Byleveld pushed the pace at the Nov. 15 basketball practice.

“We are young, inexperienced and untried so we will play an up-tempo style this season,” he said during a break in the practice. “We graduated six seniors so we have just one player with us this season that was on varsity last year. It is a good thing that our junior varsity was young with five freshmen on the team that had a decent season. That is important

because it means all our kids have experience playing Eagles basketball.”

He said the Eagles will be a transition team.

“We have to play good defense. Good defense is how we can stay with the teams in our league,” Byleveld said.

“Our practice drills are designed to develop the fast-paced style at both ends of the court. The practices also focus on helping the guys who were on JV make the step up to varsity. We also hope that, working together, the team develops great chemistry and teamwork.”

The coach said he is pleased with the effort the players are putting into practice. He also said he is happy about the turnout for basketball this season.

Coach Jentry Byleveld describes the next drill he has scheduled for the players during the Nov. 15 Heritage boys basketball team practice. The practices are fast-paced to help the young team get in shape to play an up-tempo style this season.

What is there to be thankful for? Well ...

T Pirates coach Thomas Rode, center, talks to the members of the Englewood girls basketball team during the Nov. 14 practice. The Pirates will be a young team this season with a focus on playing stingy defense. Englewood will host a scrimmage Nov. 25 and open the season at home Nov.29 against Jefferson.

Pirates girls prepare for hoops season Young Englewood team works on basketball fundamentals

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The sound of basketballs being dribbled echoed off the Englewood High School gymnasium walls during a practice session as the young Pirate girls basketball team prepared for the upcoming season.

“We are a very young team this season, as almost all last year’s team was seniors,” Pirates coach Thomas

Rode said. “So we start this year with only two girls, both seniors, who have varsity experience on the roster. We are young but I am impressed with the attitude of the young kids. All of our players come to practice ready to hustle and to work hard. The attitude is great and our players always come in smiling.”

There isn’t a lot of time to be ready to play games. Official practice began Nov. 10, the Pirates are hosting a scrimmage Nov. 25, and they play the first game of the season at home against Jefferson on Nov. 29.

The coach said many of this year’s

players have been with the program, so they know his system and how Englewood plays basketball “This is a group of young players but the good news is last year we were able to let our junior varsity play together all season, so we have a ton of kids from the program coming back this season,” he said. “We will be ready to play because our two seniors will be with us and all our juniors are ready to step up for us.”

Rode said the strength of the team will be defense.

hanksgiving is a day for a tasty meal, watching some football and having fun with family and friends who are like family.

Thanksgiving is a time to offer thanks for many things that are some- OVERTIME times overlooked like hugs, good health, children, grandchildren, dishwashers, snowblowers, good car batteries on sub-zero mornings, friends, a companion dog, spellcheck and short Jim Benton lines.

I could go on and on, but for sports fans, here are just a few things for which to be thankful.

Thankfully the Colorado High School Activities Association will likely change the Class 5A alignments for football leagues and hopefully someday might figure out a way to decide state playoff soccer games without using a shootout.

Thankfully the 4A and 5A state basketball tournaments have returned to Denver.

There are other thankful athletic things like upsets (except against the team you are supporting), last-second victories or walk-off hits, rallies, more attention being paid to concussions, gluten-free Nut-Thins and one league in Major League Baseball that doesn’t use the designated hitter.

“You don’t have to be tall to play good defense and you don’t have to shoot well to play good defense,” the coach said. “You can play good defense by playing hard.”

He said he is pleased there are 3o girls out for basketball this season.

“Our numbers are good for our program,” Rode said. “It means we will have 10-player rosters each for the varsity, junior varsity and freshman teams. It is good to know that if there is an injury or a girl can’t play one night, we have players to fill the spots on the roster.”

Yanelly Yanez is one of the seniors on this year’s roster.

“My mom has always encouraged me to do but I never tried it until my sophomore year. I found I really like the sport,” she said. “It is a lot of fun and it is non-stop action.”

Yanez is a three-sport athlete and

“The varsity is young and so is the remainder of the program,” he said.

“We have 70 guys out for our teams and 35 of them are freshmen so the future of Heritage basketball looks strong.”

Senior Trevor Young is the only player on this year’s team who played for the varsity last season.

“I want to do all I can to help our team,” he said. “I want to work to always play my best and I want to do what I can to share with my teammates what I learned playing varsity last season.”

Young talked about making the transition from junior varsity to varsity last season.

“Moving from JV to varsity is definitely a step up in competition level,” he said. “The varsity opponents are bigger, they have great skills and the

pace of the game is faster. The adjustment requires both physical and mental adjustments.

“I feel the mental part of the game is very important. You have to be thinking all the time so you can take advantage of an opening to drive to the hoop or get a pass to a teammate who is in position for a high-percentage shot.”

Young played both forward and guard last season but this year he will be primarily playing guard.

“As a guard, I will be handling the ball a lot more and I will be dribbling the ball more than I did last season,” he said. “I am working hard to improve my skills in both those areas and working on accuracy so when I have the opportunity to take a shot that I will hit it.”

The time to prepare for the season is short. Official practice began Nov. 10, the Eagles host a scrimmage with Cherry Creek and Abraham Lincoln on Nov. 22 and they open their season in Reno, Nevada, on Dec. 1.

plays volleyball, basketball and soccer for the Pirates.

“I like basketball and volleyball,” she said, “but soccer is my favorite sport and that is because I have been playing soccer since I was a little kid.”

Yanez was a captain on the volleyball team and she said she will try to bring those leadership skills to the basketball team.

“I feel being one of the two seniors on the basketball team carries a lot of responsibility,” she said. “I will do my best to be a leader, encouraging and helping all my teammates.”

She smiled when she said being in shape to play volleyball didn’t mean she was in shape to play basketball.

“There is a lot going on playing volleyball but basketball the action is almost non-stop,” she said. “It seems you are always running from one end of the court to the other. We do a lot of running in practice and I am doing some running on my own so I can be ready to play when we open the season.”

issues that will block it yet. We anticipate approval in January, and we’ll get started after that.”

A developer will construct the building’s shell, then Starbucks will outfit the interior, Descagnia said, adding that customers should be able to start walking through the door by the end of next year.

Woodlawn has seen a raft of tenants come and go, and in recent years has occasionally struggled with vacancies. Cadence bought the property in 2015 for $10 million.

Cadence has taken steps to improve the center to make it more attractive to tenants, said Chase Grieve, the center’s asset manager.

“We repaved the parking lot and increased the nighttime visibility to help reactivate it at night,” Grieve said.

“We’re working on a couple other lease deals.

They’re not inked yet, so I can’t give names yet.”

Grieve was enthusiastic about the center’s future.

“We’ve had a lot of leasing activity lately,” Grieve said. “We’re hoping to rebuild the tenant mix and increase the vibrancy of the center. Starbucks coming in will be a great use and a big traffic driver.”

The owner of the forthcoming pho restaurant could not be reached at press time, though documents name him as Duc Cao Le. “He’s an experienced operator,” Grieve said.

Public Notice “We’re excited for him to get opened up.”

The purpose of the Court hearing shall be to consider the sufficiency of the Petition for Dissolution and the adequacy of the applicable financial and service provisions of the Pre-Inclusion and Dissolution Agreement (“Agreement”) entered into between the District and the SouthEast Englewood Water District (“S/E Englewood”), regarding the continuation of the District’s services and disposition of the District’s assets and payment of its financial obligations.

The Agreement and Plan for Dissolution are available for inspection at the Court.

The Agreement and Plan for Dissolution denote that all property located within the boundaries of the District will be included within the boundaries of S/E Englewood, upon approval of the eligible electors of the District, and effective immediately upon inclusion and dissolution, the continuation of potable water service to the area and customers served by the District will be provided by S/E Englewood through amendment of its total service contract with the City and County of Denver, acting by and through its Board of Water Commissioners (“Denver Water”), essentially on the same terms and conditions as such service would have been provided by the District.

The Agreement provides that the District’s financial obligations and liabilities of any kind, shall be paid in full by the District prior to the dissolution, including the District’s general obligation bonds, which are scheduled to be repaid no later than December 15, 2017. The Agreement further provides that upon dissolution of the District, if it is not already the case, Denver Water shall become the owner of the District’s water distribution system. In addition, all records, including tap records and tap permits, shall become the property of S/E Englewood. The Agreement also provides that if the District has any monies remaining after the date of entry of an Order of Dissolution, such amounts shall be used to pay the District’s liabilities and any remaining funds shall be transferred to Denver Water for the purpose of reducing the future water rates, fees and charges to customers located within the District. However, if such arrangement cannot be made, all such funds shall be transferred to and become the property of S/E Englewood to be used for its general purposes.

In accordance with the procedures set forth in Part 7, Article 1, Title 32, C.R.S., any interested party may appear and be heard on the sufficiency of the Petition for Dissolution or on the adequacy of the applicable financial and service provisions of the Agreement and Plan for Dissolution.
