Colorado Spaceport teams up for spaceplane Westminster water rates shot down

New Zealand maker inks deal for Colorado-based horizontal take-off spaceplane

Westminster City Council votes 5-1 to deny city water rate recommendations

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A New Zealand aerospace company is joining the race to create a horizontal take-off and landing spaceplane that will fly from Colorado above the earth’s atmosphere and fly back down before landing on a runway.

The Colorado Air and Spaceport signed a memorandum of understanding June 15 with Dawn Aerospace from Christchurch, New Zealand.

James Powell co-founder of Dawn Aerospace and who works in New Zealand, joined Adams County Manager Raymond Gonzales remotely via Zoom to sign copies of the agreement.

Westminster water and sewer rates won’t go up next year by 3.9 and 5.5. percent, respectively, Westminster City Council decided at a June 14 meeting.

Five members of the city council voted against city staff’s recommendations for 2022 water rates, the subject at the center of a months-long political controversy. Mayor Anita Seitz was the only remaining supporter of the rate recommendations and when she realized that fact, she became emotional.

Getting choked up, the mayor said before the formal vote was taken, “I’m also bound by my conscience to serve my community to the best of my ability,” Seitz said while choking up.

Gonzalez praised the agreement.

“It truly has been a collaborative effort, and we’ve enjoyed getting to know this innovative company, their products, and people,” Gonzalez said. “It’s not only a partnership between Colorado Air and Spaceport and Dawn Aerospace, we have the full support of the Colorado Space Coalition and the Governor’s Office of Economic Development and International Trade.

That was the tension at a forum about hate crimes that the city of Northglenn and the 17th Judicial District Attorney’s office hosted June 10.

“This guy has been harassing myself and the Muslim community for over seven years. And you’re telling me

there is nothing we can do about it,” said Ihsan Riahi, a panelist at the forum Masjid Ikhlas in Northglenn.

Riahi and his fellow panelist Gerald Montour, founding assistant principal of the American Indian Academy of Denver, talked about their experiences with other audience members.

Meanwhile, 17th Judicial District Attorney Brian Mason, Northglenn Police Chief Jim May and FBI agent Kristen Varel reviewed laws related to hate crimes.

Both sides were cordial, though there were differences between what one side wanted and what the other side felt like it’s able to provide. In one instance, Riahi said he wants to see law enforcement officials intervene more to stop a man who has protested Masjid Ikhlas, sent a letter to

Meanwhile, Montour said there have been instances in which someone harassed him, and he feels that law enforcement didn’t properly follow up.

“Today’s white privilege is evident. It’s evident in our school systems, it’s evident in our judicial systems, it’s evident in our city govern-

ment and it’s evident in our neighborhoods,” Montour said.

May, Mason and Varel all reiterated at the forum they were committed to addressing hate crimes. After telling the audience what constitutes a hate crime, they encouraged residents to report them when they occur.

Fee increases will pay for highway projects Polis signs transportation bill that adds to costs of gasoline, rideshares

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

FLOYD HILL — Shaded by an Interstate 70 bridge that has fueled steering-wheel-pounding rage for generations, Gov. Jared Polis on June 17 signed a transportation fee and spending bill that seeks to inject more than $5 billion into Colorado road and transit projects over the next 11 years.

“Everybody knows we need to fix it,” Polis said of Colorado’s road and highway system before signing Senate Bill 260 under the curved I-70 bridge at the bottom of Floyd Hill, a structure over Clear Creek that chokes traffic and ruins the best-laid plans of skiers, snowboarders, hikers and bikers every weekend. “If it was easy it would have been done already.”

Colorado lawmakers have been trying to solve the problem of the state’s limited transportation funding for years, proposing tax hikes and bonding and committing more existing money from the state budget to the problem. But the efforts to find money in the couch cushions to supplement a 22-cent gasoline tax that hasn’t increased since 1992 have either not been successful or not been sufficient to tackle the breadth

A COVID-19 relief bill that the state legislature passed this session, which provides temporary sales tax relief to restaurants and bars, became law when Gov. Jared Polis signed it June 14 at the Glenn Bar and Grill in Northglenn. Also present for the ceremony were two prime sponsors of the bill, state Rep. Kyle Mullica from Northglenn and state Rep. Kevin Van Winkle from Highlands Ranch.

of the issue.

Senate Bill 260 was Democrats’ solution to the funding gridlock, allowing them to raise money without voter approval.

Fees under the measure begin next year. They include: • 2 cents per gallon on gasoline and diesel fuel starting in July 2022 that

increases 1 cent every year up to 8 cents • 27 cents on deliveries, including those from Amazon, FedEx and Grubhub • 30 cents on Uber and Lyft rides starting in 2022 that would increase based on the federal Consumer Price Index. The fee would be cut in half for people carpooling in a rideshare, or riding in an electric vehicle.

In addition to the funding mechanisms in the measure, there are also requirements that the Colorado Department of Transportation take greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals into account when planning future projects. State officials also

must consider the impact of transportation work on communities where low-income people, minorities or housing-cost-burdened families make up 40% of the population under the new law.

Finally, the bill emphasizes — and spends money on — an electric-vehicle future, as well as mass transit, including a potential Front Range passenger rail system.

SPACE PLANE

It’s building a reusable horizontal take-off and landing passenger spaceplane that will fly above the earth’s atmosphere sitting in zero gravity for up to 10 minutes and, as the earth rotates, will fly back down landing in Paris within 60 to 90 minutes. That project’s potential completion is in 2024.

Reaction Engines from the United Kingdom is on site at Colorado Air and Spaceport developing a hybrid rocket engine and a hybrid or a proprietary spaceplane. They are also are conducting breakthrough testing on its thermal management system on the east side of the spaceport.

An addition to spaceport is New Frontier Aerospace Co., developing a hypersonic space aircraft that will have the capability to deliver important packages quickly around the earth within the atmosphere.

“New Frontier is specifically working on rocket engine testing and controllability testing for its vehicle.

So, we’re very excited to have them on board as well,” said Dave Ruppel, director of Colorado Air, and Spaceport.

and the developments that we’ve been working on in New Zealand this week,” he said. “We do it as a paradigm shift in the spaceflight industry.We think that this will enable vastly more capability in spaceflight. Bringing this to a global market is important for us. We think it’s an important strategic difference in doing that we can to expand this and bring this to a global audience.”

Milestones of spaceport Adams County began its pursuit for a spaceport site operator license through the FAA office of commercial space in 2011 and received an operator license in August 2018.

The state renamed the sleepy Front Range Airport in Watkins and gave it new purpose as the Colorado Air and Spaceport.

Adams Deputy County Manager Jim Siedlecki said, “With such a robust aerospace industry in Colorado there was immediate interest from potential partners domestically and across the globe.”

Colorado Air and Spaceport already established a relationship with PD Aerospace from Japan.

Progress made on Thornton equity ad hoc action plan

BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In the eyes of Thornton City Council and city staff, there is a lot of progress on equity-oriented initiatives led by the city’s police, parks and recreation, and economic development departments.

Department directors updated the council at a June 15 planning session on the latest developments with the city’s equity ad hoc action plan. Big-ticket items included police training, the police-community team, redevelopment of the Thornton Shopping Center, and managing blight.

Last year, the council formed an ad hoc committee on equity, comprised of Mayor Jan Kulmann and Councilors Angie Bedolla, Julia Marvin and Jacque Phillips, to study inequity in Thornton and give city staff direction on addressing those issues. The committee drafted an action plan that emphasized certain projects or initiatives in the areas of policing, communications

Mason outlined the statutes he can use to prosecute a bias-motivated crime but said it’s not easy to win those cases. State law requires prosecutors, like Mason, to convince the jury that someone committing

and technology, and amenities. The city was already working on many of the projects mentioned in the plan, but the plan placed a higher emphasis on them and for some, allocated additional funding towards.

The police department is undertaking several new initiatives, explained Police Chief Terrence Gordon at the June 15 planning session. Gordon started with Thornton PD soon after the equity ad hoc action plan came out, and many of the policing recommendations in the plan have materialized under his leadership.

A major one is the police-community team, a group of seven residents who will provide the department with input on policy, training and long-term strategies. The department selected members, one from each police district, in April and the first meeting is expected to occur in July. “We expect that to be a lively discussion,” Gordon said.

Meanwhile, the department is implementing new training this year and next year, around com-

municating with people who are not proficient in English, de-escalation, communicating with people with disabilities, and use of force.

Philips commended the chief for his efforts, saying, “This is the training that people were asking for.”

At the planning session, councilors and staff also discussed four major redevelopment projects, specifically the Thornton Shopping Center, Gateway District, Thornton Town Center and Pinnacle Center.

Of those four, the highest priority is Thornton Shopping Center, explained John Cody, economic development director.

The city is in conversation with companies interested in developing on the land where the Thornton Shopping Center resides, but that won’t happen until after the property’s current owner, Jay Brown, addresses a litany of environmental and city code violations. Thornton has spent significant time and energy on the latter, especially.

“Right now, our focus is the

Thornton Shopping Center, but it’s not that we don’t have focus anywhere else,” said Cody. “It’s just a hard nut to crack and we’re trying to crack it and I hope we’re close.”

After the city gets a handle on the Thornton Shopping Center, the other three redevelopment projects might be easier to work on because the properties’ owners might be more willing to collaborate with the city.

Those other three projects, Cody said, “are still very possible and are still very likely and doesn’t necessarily mean that we just have to throw money at those. All of them have potential solutions, it’s a matter of timing and it’s a matter of opportunity.”

Meanwhile, the equity ad hoc action plan directed city staff to better manage abandoned, blighted and vacant buildings. Staff plan to present a new ordinance to the council at a July 6 planning session that would strengthen city enforcement around neglected and derelict buildings.

a hate crime did so with hateful intent. Though that’s always been a high bar to meet, a new law the Colorado Legislature passed this session changed that.

Colorado Senate Bill 280 altered the language of the state law to say that someone is guilty of a hate crime if that person “intended to harass or threaten in whole or in part,” Mason explained.

“Before, we could lose a biasmotivated case because a jury didn’t believe that throughout the commission of the crime, a person was doing with it with intent or a bias-motivated mindset,” Mason said. “This law candidly makes it easier for me to charge and prove hate crimes.”

Still, Mason said it’s hard to secure guilty verdicts for hate crimes and “law enforcement and laws

can’t fix everything in society,” he said.

The forum didn’t finish with everyone agreeing on everything, besides the belief that hate crimes are addressed when the entire community steps up to address the issue. Montour asked the audience, “How do we as community members change this? How do you become a change agent?”

Arvada United Methodist Church holds Pride Month Celebration More than 70 attendees celebrate LGBTQ+ community

BY RYAN DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Arvada United Methodist Church held a celebration in honor of LGBTQ+ Pride Month on June 13 at their location on Carr Street. The event was attended by over 70 members and supporters of the LGBTQ+ community featured a small parade, informational booths, and speeches from House District 27 Rep. Brianna Titone and AUMC Bishop Dr. Amy Gearhart.

The event ran from 12-2 p.m. and saw attendees adorned in rainbow regalia with signs supporting the LGBTQ+ community. A youth group set up an informational table to share resources for young people who identify as LGBTQ+.

The AUMC joined the Reconciling Ministries Network in 2000, meaning that the congregation believes that “all people are God’s children and affirm(s) that all people including LGBTQ+ people are created in God’s image.”

AUMC Project Coordinator Katie Vigil said she felt the event was important to show the local LGBTQ+ community that they have a space where they’ll be accepted.

“We are a proud progressive voice in Arvada,” said Vigil,” and our

bishop (Dr. Amy Gearhart) identifies as a lesbian and she was installed in our church a few years ago — we are proud to have her come to our church and be here. We just want everyone to know they’re welcome.”

June has been designated as Pride Month to honor the legacy of the Stonewall Riots, which began on June 28, 1969, in Greenwich Village, New York. The Riots are often cited as the catalyst of the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement.

Two protesters came to the event but stood on the opposite side of the street and did not interfere with the celebration.

Titone said the event saw a positive move by a religious group, many of which have historically excluded members of the LGBTQ+ community.

“I think it’s a real step in the right direction,” said Titone, “to take the initiative to show inclusion and welcome LGBTQ+ people into their congregation. It shows people that religion and being LGBTQ+ are not mutually exclusive; you can be both, and you should be welcomed into those places if you are, and it just shows the intersection of what our beliefs are.”

Vigil said that she was glad the event featured an informational booth hosted by a youth group due to the heightened occurrence of suicide and suicide attempts among LGBTQ+ youths. LGBTQ+ youth contemplate suicide at a rate of almost three times that of their heterosexual counterparts and are five

times as likely to have attempted suicide compared to their peers who are not in the LGBTQ+ community, according to the Trevor Project, an LGBTQ+ youth advocacy group.

“Our family ministry director wants to be sure to include the youth group,” said Vigil, “so they always know they’re loved and accepted however they are, and for parents to know that as well and not be afraid to talk about it.

“I think it’s a special event to have,” Vigil continued,” because of the high incidents of mental health issues and suicides of kids who are having enough problems with the COVID-19 pandemic and then may not feel supported. With this project, we just want them to know that they are, and they will be welcome here.”

Election set for vacant seat on Westminster council

BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster voters will select someone to fill a vacant seat on council at the same time they select other council members, the Nov. 2 municipal election.

At a June 14 meeting, Westminster City Council approved a resolution to schedule a special election to happen during the regular election. The need to schedule a special election arose from the council’s inability to appoint a finalist to the vacant seat.

In early May, former Mayor Herb Atchison resigned. Anita Seitz, who was then mayor pro tem, took the post and thereby took on Atchison’s

WATER FROM PAGE 1

The mayor’s yes vote was met by dissent from Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott and Councilors Lindsey Smith, Rich Seymour, Kathryn Skulley and Jon Voelz. Before, Skulley and Voelz have been seen as allies with Seitz on various issues, including water rates.

Seitz, Skulley and Voelz haven’t had identical stances on rates, but they, and former Mayor Herb Atchison, were targets of a recall campaign over water rates. The Westminster Water Warriors procured enough petition signatures to trigger recall elections against

its term.

Currently, seven people have submitted candidate affidavits to run for council in November. Separately, there will be a mayoral election in November. Three candidates have submitted candidate affidavits for that so far.

term. Meanwhile, the seat Seitz vacated has two-plus years left of its term, set to expire in November 2023.

In late May and early June, the council sought to fill the vacancy through an application process that ultimately produced eight finalists. The finalists interviewed with councilors at a June 1 meeting.

Finally, the council voted 99 times to choose one of the finalists at a June 7 meeting..

Council never reached a consensus on a finalist and a 30-day window that council was allowed to make an appointment, per the city charter, closed. As a result, the city charter requires that voters make

the choice in a special election. The charter also said that because of the timing, the special election needs to happen with the general election.

Before the vacancy snafu, voters would have had to choose candidates to fill three at-large council seats. Now, voters will choose candidates for four seats. Because every council seat in Westminster is at-large, all the candidates will share the same ticket.

The three highest vote-getting candidates will be elected to the regular council seats, which will be four-year terms. The fourth highest vote-getting candidate will be elected to the vacant seat, which at that point will have two years left of

Recall set next month Aside from the November election, there will be a recall election for Councilor Jon Voelz on July 20. Voters are asked to vote for or against recalling Voelz. The ballot will also ask voters to select a candidate to replace Voelz if he is recalled. One candidate is running to succeed Voelz, Kathleen Dodaro.

Atchison and Voelz. Atchison resigned in early May and Voelz will face the recall election on July 20.

The Water Warriors have criticized Atchison, Seitz, Skulley and Voelz for either supporting water rate increases or not supporting water rate decreases. The other three councilors have either advocated for lowering rates or keeping them the same, placing them in the Water Warriors’ favor.

Between October and January, the council held six study sessions to review city the utility infrastructure and its financing and to give staff direction for the 2022 rate-setting process. Staff eventually settled on the 3.9 and 5.5 percent increases after deciding to draw cash from reserves and defer

capital projects. To the city, the recommendations were the lowest possible rate the city could afford and still be able to finance necessary capital improvements. The city’s biggest utilities priority is replacing the Semper Water Treatment Facility.

Staff first presented the rate recommendations to the council at a March 15 study session. Skulley was supportive of the rates despite having some concerns, Voelz didn’t express an opinion.

However, by the June 14 meeting, Skulley and Voelz decided they were opposed to the recommendations. Both cited financial strain on residents caused by the COVID-19 pandemic as their reasoning.

Skulley and Voelz didn’t indicate

if their votes were related to the political controversy surrounding rates, although the Water Warriors believe it was. “Surprise Skulley and Voelz voted no on the water rate increase. A transparent effort to save their re-election efforts?” the recall group said on Facebook.

The mayor also touched on the political situation. “It is easy to vote no on this, to not raise rates.

That would be a politically expedient choice. But I feel that it would b be irresponsible and put my own n ease above the long-term health of p this community,” Seitz said.

After Seitz finished her comd ments, Skulley said, “Mayor, I e just want to say thank you for h your courage. I understand your u points.” Then there was roll call. a

Adams 12 board approves next year’s budget

BY LIAM ADAMS LADAMS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Adams 12 Five Star Schools budget for the 2021-22 school year is not just bigger than last year’s, but prior years as well.

Coming out of the pandemic, the district expects to have more revenue and more expenditures than it has had before. The district’s board unanimously voted to approve it at a June 16 meeting.

General fund revenue is currently budgeted at $414.9 million and total expenditure are $355.7 million. Revenue is up from last year’s budget, which was downsized due to the COVID-19 pandemic, by $33.7 million.

However, total budgeted revenue and expenditures are also higher than pre-pandemic years.

The game-changer is state funding. Last year, Colorado significantly reduced state education funding in response to the pandemic. This year, the School Finance Act, which the legislature passed in May, increased average per-pupil funding by 9.7 percent, according to Chalkbeat. For Adams 12, that translated to an additional $21.2 million in “state equalization” revenue compared to last year.

In fact, the district expects to receive an additional $1.5 million from the state if the district’s enrollment projections for October materialize.

The board will have to approve an

amended budget in the middle of the 2021-22 year after the district final enrollment numbers.

The budget the board approved June 16 doesn’t include the additional $1.5 million that Adams 12 expects from the state. “I think it’s a plus to not have every penny budgeted and my hope is that as enrollment comes in at projection or higher, that will put less strain on the system,” said Adams 12 Superintendent Chris Gdowski at the June 16 board meeting. One reason is that the district is considering raising salaries for certain entry level positions that it wants to potentially put that additional state money towards.

Looking even further towards the future, the board also discussed at the June 16 meeting a report showing future year financial projections.

Revenues and expenditures are both expected to increase in the 2022-23 and 203-24, altogether reducing the end-of-year general fund balance.

Some board members expressed concern about certain components of the projections, including declining enrollment, but acknowledged only so much can be done about it now.

Board President Kathy Plomer said, “There’s no crystal ball, but as far as being very transparent with where we see things going with what our predications are, I think this gives people a really good sense of what we have to work with.”

Redistricting tour seeks citizen input

BY EVAN WYLOGE DENVER GAZETTE

Have opinions on what the state’s political maps should look like after they get reconfigured this year?

Colorado’s redistricting commissions will be touring the state in July and August, looking for your input on the congressional and legislative maps they’re redrawing.

Starting on July 9, the commissions will hold public meetings where anyone is welcome to tell the commission how they think the map should be shaped.

Both the legislative and congressional redistricting commissions will have preliminary draft map plans by the time the statewide tour begins, which will give the commissioners and the public a starting point to consider when they provide input.

“I think Colorado is a unique place because as the No. 2 aerospace economy in the country, we have a tremendous part of the industry here. There are lots of aerospace-type jobs. We’ve got nine of the prime aerospace companies that have major operations here in the state of Colorado said, “ Ruppel said. “We have state support from the governor’s office, the Federal delegations, the state delegations, the economic development organizations, and local municipalities, not just supporting the aerospace industry, but also support for the

The last public hearing will be Aug. 28.

By then the commissions expect to have the crucial decennial census data that they will have to use to make adjustment to the preliminary map plans and create final maps.

The decennial census data was months delayed this year because of the global coronavirus pandemic. The commissions are using estimate and survey data to draw the preliminary maps, with the understanding that the more precise decennial census data will require adjustments.

The data, combined with the public input the commissions receive over the coming months, will lead each commission to draw the final map and submit them to the Colorado Supreme Court for final review and sign-off by November.

Colorado Air and Spaceport,” he added.

Spaceport plans Colorado and Air and Spaceport has plenty of room to grow, with a roughly 7,000-acre business park development and heavy rail surface park development to the south.

Another 700 acres to the east have the potential operations to support companies that are interested in sites for their businesses. The main facility has FAA-licensed horizontal launch site capability with two, 1,000-feet runways. They have several hangars and an air traffic control tower with approach capabilities to support both aviation and aerospace capabilities.

“We’ve completed an airport master plan and just completed the spaceport master plan so that we can look at the infrastructure developments that are needed, both for space uses and the aviation uses to make sure that we dovetail those

together very carefully,” said Ruppel. “Adams County is completing a sub-area plan to make sure that we have compatible types of businesses and operations, both around the facility and on the facility.”

Dawn Aerospace plans Dawn Aerospace is a space transportation company and built a satellite propulsion system that is two years old and is currently in orbit.

“It allowed us to mature rapidly as a company, both in the technical domain and the commercial domain. And it empowers us as we move on into the launch capabilities, and make sure that we’ve got all of the business systems in place to do this robustly,” said Powell.

“From the satellite propulsion, the next stage is the suborbital system, and to the Aurora spaceplane.

“It is like commercial flight; it’s accessible, it’s available, it’s very cost-effective and it the goal we are working towards.”

The Aurora Spaceplanes will also be built as a reusable horizontal vehicle that will take off into suborbital or orbital space and fly back down landing at a runway to refuel and continue to fly multiple times per day.

The first model, the Aurora Mach 2, a sub-orbital system, will be the size of a car and will land to pick up payloads and equipment. The Mach 3 orbital system will be the size of a small business jet and pick up larger payloads, such as large satellites. There are no plans yet to build a passenger spaceplane for travel.

Dawn Aerospace does not have a solid plan yet as to when it will make a presence in Colorado. There are bureaucratic processes to complete, such as licenses, Powell said.

“It’s not an overnight process. So, unfortunately, it’s not going to be a next week or next month. This is a very important first step for us and we’re excited,” said Powell.

A divided City Council is tough to watch

s we watch a struggling City Council and City Government without leadership, CROSS I cannot help but mentally put myCURRENTS self in City Manager Don Tripp’s shoes.

I once worked with a divided 4-3 City Council and I know how difficult that can be. A 3-3 city council is even more difficult with Bill Christopher less maneuvering room to attempt to bring both sides together.

Yet it seems Tripp is not paying attention to the council dynamics.

Why in the world did he put the senior apartment land purchase agreement on the agenda in late-May?

Did he want to make the conservative side of the aisle look bad?

Why would any rational person put the 2022 water and sewer rate increases on the June 14 council agenda given the divisiveness? Staff doesn’t have to get council’s decision on water/sewer rate adjustments this early in the budget process. We never asked council for rate adjustment decisions in May or June. If I didn’t know better, it has the appearance of the city manager purposefully “setting up” the city council to fail.

Based on prior discussions by the council, it was abundantly clear that the council was a house-divided on both of those issues. A 3-3 tie vote is a failing vote every time and everyone knows it.

And while the 2022 water and sewer rates did not end in a 3-3 tie, it showed the lack of leadership of the

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Recall is about reality, not politics Yes, Mr. Stimpson, unlike you and Jon Voelz, Westminster Water Warriors believe in constitutional democratic processes.

An analysis of the signatures on the petitions prove that a diverse array of citizens - old, young, all religions, races, and almost equally representative of Democrats, Republicans, and Independents, all of their free will and understanding the purpose of the petition - signed a legal recall petition.

Yet Stimpson insists the citizens who spearheaded the recall are a right-wing group. Nothing could be farther from the truth; one only needs to look at the breakdown of citizens who signed the recall petitions.

The signers were united and cognizant that a majority of the Westminster City council, past and present, no longer recognized “government by the people, for the people”.

The city council chose to circumvent TABOR and institute an irresponsible and outrageous increase in water and sewer rates. They totally ignored the pleas of the citizenry that their irresponsibility would cause SEE LETTERS, P11

new mayor or the effectiveness of the city manager.

If I were a member of city council, I would have a real heart-to-heart talk with Mr. Tripp.

Seitz alone in support of rate increases The outcome on the council vote on the utilities rate increases was a surprise to me and I would imagine to a sizable group as well. It didn’t result in a tie vote. The rate increases were defeated on a 5-1 vote with only Mayor Seitz voting in support, hanging onto her argument of upholding the City Charter.

She had to feel lonely out there on a limb. It is always interesting what public opinion can do to influence individual elected officials. Skulley and Voelz bucked the city manager’s 3.98% increase and the mayor’s vote with their No votes. DeMott, Smith and Seymour were predictable with

their “No” votes. That result was pretty much a given and they have been consistent in their position.

Skulley and Voelz justified their switch in position stating the economy and the COVID virus have not fully played out and it would be difficult for Westminster consumers to shoulder another cost increase.

While I won’t question their sincerity, I would suggest another key factor was at play.

Is rate increase issue settled or not?

As I said, a 3-3 vote to attempt to approve an action results in a tie vote. Everyone walking into the council chambers on June 14 knew that consequence.

With both Skulley and Voelz up for election this year (Voelz twice if he succeeds in the July 24 recall SEE CHRISTOPHER, P11

The past keeps populating the present

or the past year and a half, old acquaintances I haven’t heard from in five, ten, fifteen and even twenty years have written to me.

QUIET Has the same thing DESPERATION been happening to you?

Most have been former students.

There are over 10,000 of them. It’s possible some of them are reevaluating the time we spent together in the perspective Craig Marshall of maturity; i.e., maybe I wasn’t such Smith a (expletive deleted) after all.

Perhaps others want to know if I am still alive.

These reunions have a short shelf life.

They last for an afternoon, a couple of days, a week at most.

Once we have provided updates, they enter an odd phase of wondering, “Where is this going?”

Often they begin with, “You might not remember me.”

Often I don’t.

Schoolteachers, especially at the college level, encounter an extraordinary range of individuals.

I’m convinced college art teachers encounter the most (unusual) individuals.

Art attracts all kinds. Misfits, flakes, dilettantes.

Also focused, committed, insightful.

Any one of the classes I taught could have had its story made into a film.

Invariably, there was both drama and conflict.

Because art is a subjective experience, students often distrust their grades.

Low grades were generally a result of absences, failures to complete projects, or drawing a shoe when the assignment was to draw a fish.

But taking personal responsibility for a low grade requires an ability to be honest some don’t have until later on.

“I realize now the grade you gave me was deserved. Sorry I stuck a screwdriver in your tire, Mr. Smith.”

The subjectivity I refer to doesn’t occur in math classes.

Two plus two always equal four. If a student answers “Nine,” well, they’re wrong.

How can one drawing of an apple be better than another? Trust me, it can.

Many of the emails I’ve received have been heartwarming. I am, despite a contrary illusion, a sentimentalist.

Some messages are comical, some poignant.

“My husband and I stay together for the kids, I have been vaccinated, but he refuses, the dog is incontinent, I haven’t picked up a drawing pencil since your class, goodbye.”

“You always played music while we were drawing. I heard a song today you used to play. It brought back some

good memories.”

Perhaps that’s why I have been hearing from people out of the blue: good memories.

Since, oh, 2016, the scrapbook has not been filled with jollity.

Unless you are The Amazing Criswell it’s impossible to remember the future.

Sometimes it’s difficult to remember what I had for breakfast.

But somewhere in the brain’s reliquary are enduring memories.

I’ve been reminiscing about Little League baseball. My dental assistant’s son is 8. He’s playing T-ball.

I played T-ball when I was 8. The following year we had pitchers on the mound.

My team was unbeaten for two years.

I still have my glove. It’s my “Rosebud,” if you get the film reference.

After Little League, Life came along.

The internet makes these reunions much easier than they once were. You can find almost anyone now, unless they have changed their name.

There’s an artist named Grow Love.

Her name used to be Robyn Frances.

If you’re looking for Robyn Frances, look for Grow Love instead.

election), they had the leeway to champion the people and reject the rate increases.

DeMott, Smith and Seymour had decided previously to stand up for the citizenry against another increase. They had previously heard the pleas and the anger over the exorbitant 2020 increases. So, for now there will not be any utility rate increases next year. I presume that includes the increased meter fee.

But hold the phone!

City Manager Tripp got all of them to leave a crack in the doorway. He was promoting tying a 2022 increase to the Consumer Price Index adjustment. He and staff are to bring back a “smorgasbord of options”, he said, to raise the rates or find other ways to generate more utility revenue.

Is this one of his innovations from the $1.9 million cost to improve communications, increase productivity and bring innovative applications to city government which some council members approved in July, 2019?

One day, Mr. Stimpson, you will be old. Your eyes will not see as well, your hands will not be as steady, your body will not heal as.

Not only will the inevitable frailties of age hinder your enjoyment of life but, due to a fixed income, you may find yourself having to choose between your utility bill, medical care, food, and housing.

Here’s an idea — postpone some issues There are issues lining up in the queue for city council’s consideration. Let me mention a couple of examples.

The draft 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan is a prime example.

The public review and comment period previously closed. City council has had at least two briefings on it. Plus, it doesn’t have much that changes in it, including the existing “New Downtown” higher density.

So, it would appear ready for “prime time” before Planning Commission and City Council.

However, with a six-member council until after the November election, it possibly could end in a 3-3 tie vote. For some on council, land use and water resources go together and rightfully so.

This could be a non-starter for some. I suggest overlooking the July 20 recall vote of council member Voelz for now. If he retains his seat, it will be the same, current political make-up on council. If he is recalled, then Kathleen Dodaro will be the new council member. She possibly could change the balance of power on council. But let’s set that aside for now.

What is wrong with postponing

keep our vital water/sewer infrastructure functioning, half of city council managed to find an excuse to say “no” on June 14.

On this occasion, the excuse was to distrust the needs analysis used and demand an independent audit — a transparent falsehood, since the age and condition study had was actually done with consultants known to be peerless in their expertise in these subjects.

The reality we need to understand is that 90% of our water/ sewer infrastructure can only be funded from rates and will deteriorate if not paid for.

The reality is that unnecessary delay will add cost to essential repairs.

And let’s understand the overarching reality: this tendentious vote was taken simply to color the mayor and others on council in the worst possible light in the lead-up to this year’s elections.

Here’s a thought: let’s just rename our city.

Flint, Michigan would work.

Chris Stimpson, Westminster

the adoption of the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan? It is not terribly time sensitive. Plus, the new council elected in November needs to have ownership in this important guiding document.

Next, let’s consider the new Transportation Plan. It has the same analysis and the same conclusion. Let it ride until a seven-member council is underway and working when there are cooler heads and cooler outdoor temperatures.

Creative offerings by city rec staff Kudos to Westminster City Recreation staff on their creative efforts.

First, they hit a home run with the “The Land of Milk and Honey” historic play depicting the Shonenberg Farm dairy operations right on the original site. It’s a blend of Jewish immigrants, agriculture, the sanatorium movement, philanthropy and more.

The performing arts offering has been Sold Out for weeks and no chance of extending the production

by The Catamounts.

Secondly, Parks, Recreation and Libraries Department staff are rolling out an innovative visual and performing arts program starting this month in city park sites through

September.

“Art a’ la Carte”, is an 18-foot mobile art studio which will offer low-cost classes to small groups of children, adults and families. The city is partnering with the Denver Center for the Performing Arts offering a series of performing arts workshops. July will bring visual arts workshops geared to artists of all ages. View the schedule and register at https://www.cityofwestminster.us/artalacarte. Costs are nominal at $10-$15 per person including supplies. Art a’ la Carte is sponsored in part by North Metro Arts Alliance and St. Anthony North Health Campus. Come partake regardless of age.

Here’s an idea to ponder — how about using one of the 18-foot trailers to display and educate Westminster residents about our community’s history? The successful “Land of Milk and Honey” tells me people are definitely interested in their community’s history!

OBITUARIES CROCKER

Dana Paul Crocker 10/4/1962 - 5/29/2021

Dana Paul Crocker, also known to many as “Daytona Dana”, age 58, of Littleton, CO passed away unexpectedly, yet peacefully, on May 29, 2021. Born October 4, 1962 and a native to Colorado where he lived in Aurora, CO until age 23 then moved to Thousand Oaks, CA until 1999, before returning to the mile-high state.

He is survived by his daughter, Shanda Tillman (fiancé Chris) of Rifle, CO; grandson, Ryatt Hunter; mother, Paula (Husband Leon) Meurer of Parker, CO; father Dave (Wife Kay) Crocker of Foxfield, CO; stepmother Jo Doornbos of Paradise Valley, AZ; brother Darren (Wife Lacy) Crocker of Brighton, CO; brother Vernon Doornbos of Parker, CO; sister Susie (Husband Louis) LoSasso of Aurora, CO; nephew Colton (fiancée Meghan) Crocker, niece Kayla Doornbos, nephew Joey LoSasso, and nieces Makenna Crocker and Gracie Crocker.

Dana had countless friends that he met along his life’s journey. He always went out of his way to help

people and quickly befriended everyone he met. Pshhhh...he was the life of the party!

Racing to the finish line a little earlier than anticipated, #78 - Daytona Dana - will no doubt race around heaven leaving rubber on the shiny white pearl roads as he takes the turns as fast as he can “around the outside”. The air may be a little thinner there, but that won’t stop him from tuning his carb and outrunning the best of the best.

A Celebration of Life will be held at the Crocker Residence, 14121 Country Hills Drive, Brighton, CO on Sunday, July 18th, 2021 at 11:00 a.m.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Dana’s honor to his favorite non-profit, Sparkling Kindness that helps those in need and sheds light on any darkness with a motto of “We rise by lifting others” just as Dana has done all through his life. www.sparklingkindness.org Venmo: @sparkling-kindness

‘Communal experience’ of movie theaters returns With theaters open and without government limits, struggling industry gets reprieve Here are some movie theaters that are listed as open:

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

fter long stretches of staying closed amid the coronavirus pandemic, the nation’s major movie theater chains reopened locations in recent months.

And with capacity restrictions on businesses now lifted around the Denver metro area, the traditional moviegoing experience appears to be on its way to a full return.

It’s a change that could help people’s “reintegration” into socializing, said Vincent Piturro, a professor of film and media studies at Metropolitan State University of Denver.

“If you haven’t seen friends in a year and a half: ‘Hey, let’s see a movie.’ It’s a sort of a soft landing for socialization,” Piturro said.

The Regal and Cinemark theater chains have reopened locations in Colorado, and nearly all of AMC’s Denver-area theatres reopened at the end of 2020 or in the first few weeks of this year. Those AMC theaters had closed in March 2020.

“I believe most or all reopened for a period of time in the summer and fall of 2020 and then closed again in accordance with local directives,” said Ryan Noonan, a spokesperson for AMC Theatres.

As of May 16 this year, several Denver metro counties are now operating in what they call “level clear,” generally with no local restrictions — and that’s likely to continue unless things take a turn for the worse. Some counties, such as Douglas, had already been living under no local restrictions.

AMC theater capacities are still slightly reduced, with ticketing systems blocking the spots on either side of a party’s seating — but aside from that small precaution, the theaters may remind crowds of how moviegoing felt before the pandemic.

Seeing movies again may serve as a “boon to our psyches” on the way to returning to normalcy, Piturro said.

“We’ve gone to movies our whole lives — we may not have gone to bars our whole lives or certain restaurants our whole lives,” but movies were a constant presence, Piturro said.

SHUTTERSTOCK IMAGE

‘You can’t duplicate that at home’ The return of in-person movies comes as a relief to an industry that took a big hit amid the pandemic, but it doesn’t mean theaters’ troubles are over.

“It’s one of those things where we have to step back and ask ourselves: How was the industry doing prior to the pandemic?” said Darrin Duber-Smith, an expert on marketing at Metropolitan State University of Denver.

Streaming services, such as Netflix and Disney+, had served as competition for theaters long before the pandemic, Piturro said.

Theater attendance was declining for several years before COVID-19, Piturro and DuberSmith pointed out.

Fighting to adapt, theaters have made changes in recent years such as adding morecomfortable chairs and serving alcohol and higher-end food — trying to “increase the luxury,” Duber-Smith said.

One feature that “really took off during the past year” is AMC’s private theater rentals, said Noonan, the AMC spokesperson. That’s a program that allows customers to reserve an entire auditorium for a private party of up to 20 people.

“The moviegoing experience is just that: It’s an experience. It’s going out. It’s an event. You can’t duplicate that at home,” Piturro said, pointing to the “oohs and ahhs” and “the communal experience.”

‘Will they go out?’

In the long term, though, the pandemic may serve as “a nail in the coffin” for the theater industry in its current form, Duber-Smith said.

SeriesFest season 7 expands in virtual realm COMING ATTRACTIONS

Clarke Reader

A

t this point in the pandemic, some events are marking their second COVID-19 iteration. While this certainly isn’t the ideal situation, it has allowed organizers to fine-tune their offerings, providing participants with an event that can be thoroughly enjoyed by fans old and new.

Season 7 of SeriesFest is just such an event, and as Randi Kleiner (who cofounded the annual event with Kaily Smith Westbrook) explained, putting on last year’s all virtual festival was a bit like being back in college. The event allows television fans to immerse themselves in events and programming, including premiere screenings, conversations with creatives and industry insiders and samples of exciting pilots.

“We were learning everything last year,” she said with a laugh. “This year we’re aiming for a much smoother experience,

including the way we scheduled the event and the amount of shows and panels we’re hosting.”

This year’s SeriesFest — centered around the theme of What’s Next? — remains entirely virtual, and runs from Thursday, June 24 through Sunday, July 11. The festival will primarily be showcased on the Eventive virtual platform, which for viewers to stream their selected films on Roku, AppleTV or their computer or mobile device. To connect viewers and creatives, the event will also host events on Topia (a virtual party environment) and Run The World (a workshop and community event site).

“We’ve really expanded what we’re doing with workshops and networking events, as well as parties, in virtual spaces,” Kleiner, who is CEO of the event, said. “It’s nice to something creative and different, and this

helps us to have more people participate, including lots of high-caliber talent and people from the industry.”

Some highlights from this year’s festival include screenings of Amazon’s “The Underground Railroad,” The CW’s “The Republic of Sarah” and Hulu’s “This Way Up,” as well as Innovation Talks featuring Ann Dowd (“The Handmaid’s Tale”) and Jennifer Gardner. Comedy fans won’t want to miss a look behind the scenes of “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah,” featuring the utterly hilarious correspondents Desi Lydic and Dulce Sloan.

A key aspect of the mission of SeriesFest is cultivating opportunities for female directors, according to provided information, and as such, it is working with the Shondaland production company on a third cycle SEE READER, P23

Legacy’s baseball season concludes STAFF REPORT

AURORA – Legacy High School’s baseball team advanced to the state 5A playoffs this spring. But the stay was short.

Mountain Vista scored four runs in the third inning and beat Legacy 9-2 in the opening round June 18 at Cherry Creek High School.

Mountain Vista’s Sam Krysa singled and eventually scored on a Blake Young base hit in the decisive third inning. An infield error brought home another run, and Travis Sprinkle’s doubled home two more runs.

The two teams split runs over the first two innings. LHS’ Cole Claridge singled and rode home on an infield grounder by Clayton Schuck in the second inning.

Mountain Vista’s Blake Young’s RBI came by way of a firstinning sacrifice fly. Seth Howard reached on an error in the seventh inning, and Trey Dunn’s infield single triggered a threerun rally that gave the Eagles some breathing room.

Claridge, who had two of Legacy’s four hits, lofted a sacrifice fly to score the Lightning’s last run in the bottom of the sixth in-

ning. Sehr struck out six in 6 1/3 innings of work. Young had two hits and drove in two. Sprinkle finished with two RBIs. Fairview was waiting in the first consolation game for the Lightning, and the Knights took care of matters early. FHS scored nine runs in the first two innings and beat Legacy 12-2 in five innings at Eaglecrest High School.

Adam Moser had a three-run home run in the second inning and added a run-scoring double in the third. He finished with six RBIs. Greysen Carter added runscoring doubles in both the second and third innings, and J.D. Jones contributed a run-scoring single. He had four RBIs. Claridge’s scoring fly ball added a run for Legacy in the third inning. Kieran Gaffney contributed an RBI double in the same inning.

Fairview’s starting pitcher, Finley Daescher, threw a threehitter and struck out five. Macully Sehr struck out two in 2 1/3 innings of pitching.

The losses ended Legacy’s season. LHS posted a record of 13-7.

Horizon picks new basketball coach

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Brandon Brown is moving up the coaches’ seats.

Brown, who was an assistant varsity coach at Eaglecrest High School in Aurora, is the new boys’ basketball coach at Horizon High School. Brown replaces Chad Wilson, who was the Hawks’ boss for nine seasons.

Brown coached the JV program at Berthoud High School for three seasons. He also played on the state championship team for the Raptors

under coach John Olander.

“I was drawn to Horizon High School because of the good reputation of the community, the staff, and the administration,” Brown said.

For the last six years, he’s run his own club program, Colorado Anarchy.

“I knew I wanted to be a coach at the age of 19,” Brown said. “I saw my dad coach his entire childhood and the way he positively impacted lives. I wanted to do the same. I have a deep passion for the game of basketball and creating relationships with my players. I take my

development as a coach very seriously. Since the age of 19, I have been working extremely hard to be the head coach of a program. “ Brown wants his teams to be fastpaced and aggressive on both ends of the floor.

“Offensively it will depend on our personnel, but ideally, I’d like to run some ball-screen continuity stuff with a mixture of dribble-drive principles,” he said. “I want to put my guys in a position to play to their strengths in a system that will get them to their spots.

“Defensively I run a balanced

scheme between man and zone,” he added. “I am a pack line man to man guy. Zone-wise, we will be aggressive and trapping everywhere.”

There won’t be much of a change for the Hawks to get into team camps this summer because of Brown’s late hiring date.

“But we will start open gyms very soon with the possibility of some scrimmages against local teams,” Brown said. “I am grateful for the opportunity to be the head coach at Horizon, and I cannot wait to start building the culture within my program.”

Tigers pull off two upsets in state 4A soccer STAFFREPORT

H oly Family’s soccer team started the state 4A girls soccer tournament as the 12th seed. It entered this week’s semifinal round as one of the four remaining teams in the tournament.

The Tigers beat Windsor 2-1 in overtime June 19, thanks to a direct free kick from Lauren Klingman in the 83rd

minute of play. Jaelon Giron scored the tying goal in the 53rd minute.

Legacy drops tough match to Valor Christian

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

HIGHLANDS RANCH -- Valor Christian clawed its way to a 4-2, first-round win over Legacy High School in the state 5A girls soccer playoffs June 15.

The match was on the Eagles’ field.

All of the scoring came in the second half. Molly Tamborra of the Eagles and Katey Beaver of the Lightning traded goals in the 57th and 58th minutes of the match, respectively.

Valor’s Mandy Patrick scored in the 63rd minute to give the Eagles the lead for good. Four minutes later,

Ajanae Respass scored the first of her two goals -- off a header following a free kick -- to give Valor some breathing room.

Legacy wasn’t quite finished. The Lightning barely missed a goal in the 71st minute when the shot bounced off the goal post. A rebound shot went over top of the net. LHS kept

the pressure on, and it paid off when Julianna Hayward from 20 yards out in the 77th minute.

Respass scored her second goal with a minute to play in the match.

The Eagles’ goalkeeper, Keeley Kroonenberg, made six saves.

Legacy finished the season with a record of 8-3.

THEATERS FROM PAGE 12

Amid changing consumer habits, he’s expecting a “bailout,” where movie-production companies will “vertically integrate” by buying out theaters, keeping them running so movie producers can still profit from them.

“Is (the industry) going to bounce back to pre-pandemic levels? I don’t think so,” DuberSmith said, adding that even the pre-pandemic level of activity wasn’t adequate.

Piturro, the film professor, takes a more optimistic view, arguing that movies aren’t going

As Kleiner points out, the real heartbeat of SeriesFest is the Independent Pilot Competition, which gets to the core mission of elevating independent stories and voices. This also allows viewers to get involved, because they can vote for their picks for the audience award.

“We’ve had a lot of success in the virtual space and have broadened our

“I see younger crowds (likely) going to the movies in record numbers and the older crowd, without kids, going back to the theaters as well, especially whose kids have left the home,” Piturro said. “The wild-card is the middle-age demographic: those with kids at home. Will they go out to the movies? They were the group that stayed home in bigger numbers in the pre-COVID years. This is the group that we are unsure about, and this is the group that other entertainment venues will vie for.

audience, especially into the international world,” she said. “The most difficult aspect of the transition from in-person to virtual is the community aspect, but that’s a challenge we’re up for. We have stories from all over world, new voices and new talent, and it’s great to see all of it on screen.”

Northglenn hosts first PRIDE Night event Northglenn is celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community with its first ever PRIDE Night event, held at E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial Park, 11800 Community Center Drive, from 5 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, June 26.

“Still, either way, I see a positive trend in moviegoing in the near future,” Piturro said, noting that “the long-term prospects are a bit cloudier.”

Piturro envisions theater crowds having a “spillover effect,” bringing more patrons to nearby bars and restaurants before or after they attend a movie.

“I think that’s healthy for the overall economy,” Piturro said.

Duber-Smith expressed skepticism about whether increased numbers of theater patrons will help shopping centers to rebound, though. He expects the theater industry itself to shrink although some theaters may expand.

“Overall, I think you’re going to see a reduction in the number

Hosted by the DISE (Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Equity) Board, the evening will include a Northglenn Youth Theatre PRIDE program, a drag show hosted by former Northglenn Resident Evelyn Evermoore and a Silent Disco hosted by neva. summer. This will be a fun and inclusive event that people won’t want to miss.

of movie theaters,” Duber-Smith said.

People won’t fully return to movie theaters in the next few months, Piturro expects. He noted his own concerns about COVID-19 even though he’s been fully vaccinated for several months.

“It’s my job to watch movies for a living, and I haven’t been to a theater yet,” Piturro said, noting fears of virus variants. “I’m planning to come back to theaters in the fall for sure.”

For now, he’s anticipating delving back into that environment.

“For me, there’s nothing better than sitting in a dark theater … getting lost in a world for 2 1/2 hours is really one of the great experiences for me,” Piturro said.
