Health department takes a look at food insecurity in Jeffco More than 100 from around county gather for all-day conference

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

More than 100 Jefferson County community members and representatives from local organizations attended an all-day conference on food insecurity on Nov. 9, which was put on by Jefferson County Public Health.

“It’s unacceptable that anybody in our county is hungry,” said Marion Kalb, the food systems coordinator for the Jeffco health department. “Food makes a huge difference on how we function.”

Adults perform better at their jobs, and children are able to learn better when they are well-fed, Kalb said.

“Food really helps people be the best that they can be,” she added.

Access to food means that it is affordable and geographically accessible, Kalb said, and that people are educated on preparing fresh produce and knowing how to shop for food that provides nutritional value on a limited budget.

The conference served as a gathering for the health department’s Food Policy Council, which looks at what is happening with food insecurity across the county. The council represents the different sectors of the food system, Kalb said, such as farmers, distributors, food co-ops, healthcare representatives, agencies such as WIC and human services, educators and nonprofit partners.

GOP’s Proposals Favor Homeowners in States Without an Income Tax The seven states without an income tax are obviously less impacted by the GOP’s proposed elimination of deductibility for state and local income tax. But what is less evident is how it actually helps homeowners in those states. Homeowners in those states benefit from eliminating that deduction because property taxes — which remain deductible — tend to be much higher in states without an income tax.

Texas is a good example. People who move to states like Texas because they don’t have an income tax are fooling themselves, because state government has to get its money from somewhere, and property tax is a common replacement for funds that an income tax would generate.

Colorado’s property taxes on residential properties are quite low compared to other states, and one reason is that our state has

an income tax in addition to state and local sales taxes. Coloradans were hurt when the deductibility of sales tax was eliminated, and elimination of the income tax deduction would add to that hurt.

Meanwhile, homeowners in states that get most of their general funds through property taxes would hardly feel it at all.

It doesn’t seem fair, does it?

Of course, a large number of Congress members, including Republicans, are from states with income taxes, making passage of the GOP tax bill as written difficult at best.

Overlooked in most discussions of tax reform is the progressive nature of the mortgage interest deduction, and I’m heartened that, under the GOP plan, it would remain in place for mortgages under $1 million. Another

I’m not an electrician, although I’ve done my share of DIY home wiring over the years.

Ever since I started driving electric cars, which utilize 240-Volt charging stations, I’ve been curious why REcolorado (Denver’s MLS) refers to 110-Volt and 220-Volt service instead of 120-Volt and 240-Volt service.

Recently I asked someone at Xcel Energy to explain this dichotomy. What I was told was that 120 volts became the standard as a result of the Rural Electrification Act in

1930. As for how you get 240-volt service, it’s created when two 120-volt lines of opposite phase are combined.

Nevertheless, most Americans continue to refer to electricity as being 110 or 220 volts, even though those voltages no longer exist and haven’t for nearly a century in the United States.

Using a voltmeter, I verified that my own home’s outlets are running 120 volts and 240 volts.

Does Your Home Have 110-Volt Service? I Doubt It!

Golden Townhome on Quiet Cul-de-Sac With Views Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac within walking distance of Mitchell Elementary $545,000 School, a city park, Clear Creek and downtown Golden, this home has the best location in Canyon Point Villas — away from the noise of Highway 58, yet with an expansive view of the foothills and Clear Creek Canyon! The owner has made some changes to the main-floor plan that other owners here might want to emulate 537 High Point Drive, Golden — the sliding glass door to the patio was moved from the living room to the dining room, making the living room effectively much bigger. Also the kitchen was nearby doubled in size by expanding it to include part of the foyer and all of the laundry/mud room. Other improvements include maple hardwood throughout the main floor as well as the stairs and the loft. Bathrooms are tiled and only the bedrooms have carpeting. The flagstone patio measures over 250 sq. ft., 80 of that covered by a retractable awning. The covered porch is private, out of view from the street, with mature trees providing additional privacy.

tax proposal that is not getting as much coverage as it should is the proposed elimination of the estate tax. Currently, estates under $5 million are exempt from estate tax. Instead of entirely eliminating this tax, how about raising the exemption to, say, $10 million? This would preserve the intent of the current law, which is to provide relief for family farmers and others who may have a large non-cash estate which would have to be liquidated by heirs to pay

the inheritance tax. At the same time, exempting only the first $10 million would mean that billionaires could not pass their entire fortune to their children without those children paying a single penny on their inheritance. I disagree with those who refer to this as a death tax.

Instead, I view it as a tax on unearned income (on a grand scale) and believe that it is quite reasonable to require the beneficiaries of such windfalls to pay taxes on it.

Longtime Golden lawyer Conrad Gardner dies Conrad Gardner will be remembered as a community advocate

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

On any given Denver Broncos game day, Conrad Gardner would drive from Golden to Wheat Ridge to pick up a take-out order from Boston Market.

Typically, the whole family would sit around and eat a chicken dinner and watch the football game, said Ron Gardner, 81, of Arvada, Conrad Gardner’s older brother.

But it was more than just sports that Conrad Gardner enjoyed. He also loved photography and music, among many other things. And he had a passion for law.

“He liked the challenge of it and he liked to help people,” Ron Gardner said. “He cared about people.”

Conrad Gardner was admitted to the California Bar in 1964 and to the Colorado Bar in 1965. In 2015, he was recognized by the Colorado Bar Association for 50 years of service.

“At the time of his passing,” said Conrad Gardner’s son Rick, he “was very possibly the longest serving attorney in Golden’s history.”

Conrad Earl Gardner, 79, died of SEE GARDNER, P5

Conrad Gardner stands beside a tree he planted near the 1200 block of Arapahoe Street, circa 1978. The tree is still there today and has a small picnic area accompanying it.

natural causes on Oct. 29. He is survived by his brother Ron, wife Ingrid and two children Heather and Rick of Golden, and numerous beloved nieces, nephews and relatives.

Conrad Gardner will be remembered for his talent of negotiating, and his thoroughness and integrity, Rick Gardner said. He had an “engaging, humorous and optimistic personality,” Rick Gardner added.

“His legacy (will) live on through the trees he planted,” Rick Gardner said, “the places he built and the landmarks he saved.”

Conrad Gardner was born in St. Louis, Missouri on February 16, 1938.

He was the youngest of four sons. He grew up in Arkansas City, Kansas, and graduated at the top of his class from Arkansas City High School in 1956. In high school, he played on both sides of the ball in football. He earned a scholarship to Dartmouth College in New Hampshire where he majored in English. While at Dartmouth, he was a yearbook photographer and a disc jockey on WDCR radio — he anchored the Nightwatch midnight romantic music program. Conrad Gardner paid his way through college by working as a brakeman on the Santa Fe Railroad.

He went on to study law at Stanford University and graduated in 1963.

Conrad Gardner met his wife Ingrid, a Golden music teacher and organist, in the winter of 1965. They were both attending Supper Club, a group for single, young adults that met at the Central Presbyterian Church in Denver.

“We had a big argument the first night we met, but started dating some four months later after a Supper Club outing to Arches National Monument,” Ingrid Gardner wrote in a March 1989 series on wedding vows published by the Golden Transcript.

He proposed in December 1967.

“By that time, we were both living in Golden, and he was working at the Fleming & Pattridge law office here,” Ingrid Gardner wrote. “I had been a member of Faith Lutheran Church and was church organist there since 1962, and I considered Golden to be my home, so I planned to be married

Conrad Gardner, a longtime Golden lawyer, died at age 79 on Oct. 30. He was admitted to the California Bar in 1964, the Colorado Bar in 1965 and the Bar of the United States Supreme Court in 1967. In 2015, he was recognized by the Colorado Bar Association for 50 years of service.

here.”

The two married on June 22, 1968.

Conrad Gardner became a partner of Fleming & Pattridge in 1967. That year, he was admitted to the Bar of the United States Supreme Court.

In 1985, he began his private legal practice, Conrad E. Gardner P.C., and in 1990, he moved the practice to the historic Quaintance Block.

Brian Boatright, a justice on the Colorado Supreme Court, worked with Conrad Gardner since the mid-1990s, where Boatright said the lawyers was a “long-time fixture out there.”

“He was a gentleman and always pleasant to deal with,” Boatright said.

“He was a pro.”

U.S. District Judge R. Brooke Jackson agrees. Jackson was a judge in Jefferson County from 1998 to 2011,

and knew of Conrad Gardner because he would occasionally have a case in his courtroom, Jackson said.

Gardner was always professional, courteous and civil, Jackson said. “A good, solid lawyer.”

He became an active advocate of historic preservation, and eventually joined the Golden Landmarks Association. He served as its president from 1995-1998. Conrad Gardner remained engaged with the organization until his recent hospitalization, said Bill Litz, president of the Golden Landmarks Association.

Litz said the association’s board recently voted unanimously to make him one of the city’s “Living Landmarks.” He will be honored at the group’s annual Living Landmarks dinner this May.

“I will remember his quiet, thoughtful demeanor during meetings and wry sense of humor,” Litz said.

“Golden has lost an important voice for historical preservation.”

Conrad Gardner served as a member of the Jefferson County Library Board for 19 years, from 1969 to 1988. He helped oversee the establishment and construction of the Villa, Evergreen and Columbine libraries. He was also instrumental in the building exchange for the present home of the Golden Library. It was during this time, in 1994, when Conrad Gardner and Golden resident Tom Atkins became acquainted, Atkins said.

“He was always a strong library supporter,” Atkins said. He added that the two men saw each other at the Columbine Library’s grand reopening and ribbon cutting event on Oct. 21. “Even when not feeling well, he was still there, supporting the library.”

Conrad Gardner was a community advocate, persistent and committed, according to Atkins.

“Those are two very important characteristics of a community advocate,” Atkins said. “He cared about his personal values, and he cared about the community’s values.”

CCU hosts rally to support Lakewood baker Case of refusal to make cake for same-sex wedding will go before Supreme Court

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Despite being at the center of a freedom-vs.-rights cultural flashpoint that incites passion on both sides, Jack Philips, owner of Masterpiece Cake in Lakewood, has a lot of people on his side.

State Sen. Kevin Lundberg, R-Estes Park, Senate Majority Leader Chris Holbert, R-Parker, and Colorado Christian University President Donald Sweeting were among those who spoke at a rally in support of Philips, “their friend and neighbor,” at CCU’s event center on Nov. 8.

“It has been five years of court battles,” Philips told the more than 75 friends, family members, supporters, and students who attended the event, which was called a religious freedom rally. “If you want a free Colorado and America, no one should be forced to say or do something they don’t believe.”

Philips has been part of the passionate debate over religious freedom and equal rights since 2012, when he declined to make a custom wedding cake

Jack Philips, owner of Lakewood’s Masterpiece Bakery, meets with supporters before a rally held to support him before his Supreme Court case in December. Colorado Christian University’s Centennial Institute held the religious freedom rally Nov. 8, featuring numerous faith leaders speaking about the importance of Philips’ case.

The couple filed a complaint with the Colorado Civil Rights Commission stating that Philips violated the state’s public accommodations law that specifically prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation.

The commission ruled against Phil-

lips, and the appeals court upheld the decision.

In his decision, Judge Daniel Taubman said Masterpiece is free to continue to share its religious beliefs — including not recognizing same-sex marriage.

“However, if it wishes to operate as a public accommodation and conduct business within the State of Colorado, (Colorado law) prohibits it from picking and choosing customers based on their sexual orientation,” Taubman wrote.

In September, the Department of Justice filed a brief on behalf of Phillips, agreeing with his argument that his cakes are a form of artistic expression and he can’t be forced to make something that would be contrary to his beliefs.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case, and oral arguments will start on Dec. 5.

Philips’ case is one of several happening around the country where business people have cited religious freedom as a reason to not provide certain services to members of the LGBT community.

Kentucky’s Hands On Originals, Telescope Media Group in Minnesota, and Arlene’s Flowers in Washington state are all dealing with similar situations, and all three owners spoke at Philips’ rally.

“I refused to make shirts for a pride parade, but I’ve declined plenty of projects because I don’t agree with them, including shirts that say homosexuality is a sin,” said Blaine Adamson, owner of Hands On Originals, a promotional printing company. “We all find ourselves at a crossroads, and you have to do what you know is right.”

The rally was organized by The Centennial Institute, a department within Colorado Christian that focuses on bringing attention to issues regarding, “faith, family and freedom.”

The Institute does research and sponsors seminars and conferences to share information. The Institute invited Evangelical Christian speakers, but also Larry Smith, President and CEO of Catholic Charities, Steven T. Collis, a Mormon attorney and author, and Rabbi Yaakov Menken, managing director of the Coalition for Jewish Values.

“In our current environment, only people of faith are called bigots,” Menken said. “The people suing Jack aren’t victims of discrimination, but practitioners of the craft.”

Sweeting and other speakers connected Philips’ struggle to those of the pilgrims and founders, who came to America for religious freedom, and who wrote freedom of speech, religion, and conscience into the Constitution.

“The stakes have never been higher for religious freedom,” Sweeting added. “Our nation has always stood for freedom of conscience.”

The rally ended with Jeff Hunt, director of the Centennial Institute, leading a prayer and a laying of hands

THE CASE SO FAR 2012 — A same-sex couple shopping for a wedding cake were turned away by Masterpiece Cake in Lakewood. the couple filed a complaint with the Colorado Civil Rights Division, claiming that the bakery’s actions violated Colorado’s Anti-Discrimination Act. Following an investigation and hearings, the Colorado Civil Rights Commission determined that the bakery illegally discriminated against the couple.

2015 — The Colorado Court of Appeals agreed with the commission’s decision. The court also concluded that application of Colorado’s Anti-Discrimination Act did not infringe the bakery’s freedom of speech or free exercise of religion.

CALM AFTER THE STORM

SM

2017 — In September the Trump Administration’s Department of Justice filed a brief in support of the cake shop owner, and his First Amendment rights.

The United States Supreme Court will hear the case beginning Dec. 5. on Philips to support him when he goes to the Supreme Court.

“We’re just here to support our friend, Jack,” said Duane Brigman, executive pastor at Centennial’s Crosspoint Community Church. “This is a critically important decision for all Americans, regardless of which side you fall on.”

Golden supports solar garden exploration

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As of 9:22 p.m., the majority of Golden residents had voted to approve the use of renewable energy on a portion of the Rooney Road Sports Complex to potentially get the city’s first community solar garden.

Total votes cast as of 9:22 p.m. were 4,929. Of those, 81.62 percent were in favor of the measure while 18.38 percent opposed it.

A community solar garden is a photovoltaic (PV) solar system that generates renewable electricity for which utility customers can purchase subscriptions.

“The overwhelming support for community solar is inspiring and shows the desire of our citizens to create a more sustainable Golden,” said Jordan Beezley, chair of Golden’s Community Sustainability Advisory Board. “We are excited to take the next steps in the process of developing a community solar garden.”

The sports complex, 101 Rooney Road, houses lacrosse, football and soccer fields. The solar garden would use about 10 acres of the 50-acre site, which is built on top of a landfill. It is a brownfield site, meaning some ground contamination concerns exist, so the property has only several designated uses.

One of them is renewable energy.

The land is owned by Jefferson County and leased to Golden for recreational use. Using the portion of the site for renewable energy required a citizen vote.

As of now, there are no draft plans for the solar garden, as plans were pending the outcome of this election.

However, the next step will be amending the lease with the county, said Theresa Worsham, Golden’s sustainability coordinator. In the coming months, staff will research financial feasibility, engineering

Supporters of Golden’s solar ballot issue celebrate during a watch party on Nov. 7 at a private residence. Jim Dale, who ran unopposed for Ward 3 is in front, holding the sign. As of 10:24 on election night, the ballot issue passed among Golden voters with 81 percent support.

CHRISTY STEADMAN requirements and invite Jefferson County representatives to discuss potential lease amendments, she added.

One of the city’s sustainability goals is to provide 20 percent of the community’s electricity use from renewable energy sources by 2027, Worsham said in a previous interview.

A community solar garden would help the city obtain this goal, said Bart Sheldrake, co-owner of Golden-based Buglet Solar.

But not only that, “it will be unprecedented in the Front Range,” he added. “Folks who have apartments or shaded roofs will now be able to participate in the solar revolution.”

Urban retains seat, and Dozeman wins crowded field Wheat Ridge City Council sworn in Monday night

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Two familiar faces, and two newer faces were among those sworn in Monday night at Wheat Ridge City Hall, at 7500 West 29th Avenue.

District 2 City Councilman Zachary Urban held on to his seat in the 2017 General Election, defeating challenger Rachel Hultin by a 41-vote margin, according to the latest Jefferson County Clerk and Recorder results.

District 3 incumbent Tim Fitzgerald did not face an opponent in his bid to be reelected.

For the open District 4 position however, competition was fierce, with four candidates. Leah Marie Dozeman won the night, with 39.5 percent of the vote. Valerie Nosler Beck, Andy Rasmussen and Ruth Baranowski finished behind her in votes, in that order.

A lifelong resident of Wheat Ridge, Dozeman is program director for a martial arts studio. She has served as

executive secretary and parade chair for the Carnation Festival.

Dozeman lists her three top priorities on council as supporting small

businesses, strengthening local schools and keeping neighborhoods safe.

For Urban, who was first elected in

2013, being retained on council mean s a chance to continue working on his top-stated priorities of ensuring public safety, ensuring that taxpayer money is prioritized to benefit all citizens and tackling the heroine addiction crisis, which strains local first responders.

The three newly elected councilmembers joins the newly elected mayor Bud Starker to begin a new era for the council.

Bud Starker wins Wheat Ridge mayoral race As term-limited Wheat Ridge Mayor Joyce Jay steps down, it appears the city’s voters have chosen Bud Starker as her replacement.

As of 9:22 p.m., with all precincts reporting, Starker had 53.9 percent of the vote to his challenger Joe DeMott’s 46.1 percent, with 8,087 votes cast.

“I’m very gratified that the citizens of Wheat Ridge have elected me their mayor,” Starker said, adding that he planned to work with all members of the soon-to-be new city council.

“Good ideas comes from all directions,” he said.

Starker enjoyed the endorsement of Jay, as well as Congressman Ed Perlmutter, a former Applewood resident. Starker has lived in Wheat Ridge since

1975. He began working carpentry in college, before starting his own construction company. He previously served on city council 2011-2015 and holds a bachelor’s degree in political science form CU Boulder.

The new mayor said during the campaign that his three top priorities would be: • Safe and secure neighborhoods, with enhanced neighborhood watch programs, promote policecommunity communication and ensure necessary resources to first responders.

• Economic growth and financial stability to spur development in retail and job creation to foster economic growth * Preserve the quality of life and small-town atmosphere by supporting strong neighborhoods and

fostering a shared sense of community.

A Wheat Ridge native, DeMott is the owner of Pietra’s Pizzeria. A Wheat Ridge High School graduate, class of 1990, DeMott was a founding member of the Wheat Ridge Chamber of Commerce. He has served as chair of the Carnation Festival and on the city council.

He could not be reached for comment on Election Night.

DeMott’s strongest support came from Precinct 27, where he beat Starker by 63 votes.

Overall voter turnout in this year’s election was lower than in 2015, when the citywide race for treasurer garnered 8,782 votes.

Starker and winners of the Wheat Ridge City Council race were sworn in at City Hall on Nov. 13.

Leadership stays the same for Jeffco Public Schools Three Board of Education incumbents won re-election Nov. 7

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Brad Rupert, Susan Harmon and Ron Mitchell keep their seats on the Jefferson County Board of Education, having won re-election Nov. 7.

The three incumbents were elected following the recall of the board majority in 2015.

Two challengers, supported by the Jefferson County Republicans, sought to add their points of view to the new board majority, however, Rupert and Harmon garnered 60 percent of the

votes securing their seats. Mitchell ran unopposed. All three will serve another four years.

Harmon said with the addition of new Jeffco Schools Superintendent Dr. Jason Glass, it’s exciting that the board will be staying the same for a while.

“We’ve had a lot of change over the last few years, which makes moving forward sometimes more challenging,” Harmon said. “Now that we have this behind us, it gives us the opportunity to really dig in on some work that needs to be addressed.”

Harmon, an attorney in Jefferson County, represents District 2, which covers the westernmost part of the county.

“It’s been a long couple months and you never know how it’s gonna go,” Harmon said. “So, I’m looking for-

ward to re-engaging on the board.”

Rupert, an attorney in Arvada, will continue representing District 1, which covers the north and northeast portion of the county.

“I’m really excited,” Rupert said at a watch party held at Applewood Golf Course on Election Night. “It’s a community effort. It’s not about me, it’s not about Susan or Ron, it’s about the kids and a community that cares deeply about its schools and wants to maintain that.”

Rupert said the next steps are to get down to the business of doing education.

“It’s closing achievement gaps, continuing to expand the pathways — all the things we have been really talking about on the campaign trail because it is the real work that needs to get done.”

But challengers Matt Van Gieson and Erica Shields said just because the election is over, they aren’t backing down.

“Tomorrow, I’m still the dad of a second-grader and a kindergartner,” Van Gieson said. “I’m still going to be invested.”

Shields also said it’s not over.

“We’re going to keep doing what we can to make a difference in education,” she said. “We plan on getting more involved and making sure the school board is engaged in the community.”

To her, the biggest disappointment in the race was the voter turnout.

This year 124,000 voters cast ballots

THE RESULTS District 1 Brad Rupert : 60.50 percent Matt Van Gieson: 39.50 percent District 2 Susan Harmon: 59.63 percent Erica Shields: 40.37 percent District 5 Unopposed incumbent Ron Mitchell has 100 percent of the vote, with 86,821 votes cast.

Mitchell, a retired high school administrator, will serve another four years on the board.

As reported by the Colorado Secretary of State’s office. in the Jeffco Schools race. In 2015, 155,000 people voted in the general election that included two board of education seats. This year’s BOE election garnered a 30 percent voter turnout.

The local races echo the statewide numbers. The voter turnout for Colorado this election was 31 percent.

“I think the bottom line is that we’re just disappointed that more voters didn’t come out and vote,” Shields said. “Every election is so important.”

Group aims to boost Coloradans’ mental health STAFF REPORT

Colorado routinely make the list as one of the physically healthiest states in the union, but a new effort by the organization Mental Health Colorado strives to make Colorado the mentally healthiest state too.

The group’s president, former Colorado state Rep. Andrew Romanoff, said the new data dashboard that just launched on the group’s website offers Coloradans a chance to see where they stand in terms of mental health and substance abuse disorders.

“Previously you would have had to go to several dozen sources to get all this information,” said Romanoff.

The dashboard — available at www. mentalhealthcolorado.org/dashboard/ — presents information including suicide rates and prevention, mental health issues, opioid overdose rates and even barriers to care. The information is sortable by county, and links to the source documents.

The results are middling. Colorado continues to rank below average for psychiatric beds per captia, and has a persistently higher rate of drug and alcohol addiction, along with a higher suicide rate.

“We’re also below the national average for funding on treatment,” Romanoff said.

Mental Health Colorado’s intent in putting out the dashboard is to reduce the stigma and increase public awareness of mental health disorders, including substance abuse disorders like those caused by the opiate epidemic. A second goal, according to Romanoff, is to hopefully “accelerate a solution” by inspiring and empowering the public, mental health organizations and government at all levels into action.

Last week Eagle County voters passed a marijuana tax measure by a

Source: www.mentalhealthcolorado. org/dashboard/ nearly 3-1 margin, generating $1.2 million in new mental health funding.

“We’re trying to show that if you treat mental illness you can save lives,” said Romanoff.

In a press statement, Mental Health Colorado Research Director, Dr. Sarah Davidon said, “Our data dashboard will assess mental health and substance use issues facing children, adolescents, and adults in Colorado to inform policy decisions.”

The group estimates more than one million Coloradans experience a mental health or substance use disorder each year. Fewer than half get treatment.

Romanoff says the cause of improving mental health is personal for him.

A cousin committed suicide on New Years Day in 2015 after struggling with mental illness.

Study: Over-the-counter pain pills as effective as opioids in ER patients Adults were given ibuprofen and acetaminophen together

BY LINDSEY TANNER ASSOCIATED PRESS

Emergency rooms are where many patients are first introduced to powerful opioid painkillers, but what if doctors offered over-the-counter pills instead? A new study tested that approach on patients with broken bones and sprains and found pain relievers sold as Tylenol and Motrin worked as well as opioids at reducing severe pain.

The results challenge common ER practice for treating short-term, severe pain and could prompt changes that would help prevent new patients from becoming addicted.

The study has limitations: It only looked at short-term pain relief in the emergency room and researchers didn’t evaluate how patients

managed their pain after leaving the hospital.

But given the scope of the U.S. opioid epidemic — more than 2 million Americans are addicted to opioid painkillers or heroin — experts say any dent in the problem could be meaningful.

Results were published Nov. 7 in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Long-term opioid use often begins with a prescription painkiller for short-term pain, and use of these drugs in the ER has risen in recent years.

Previous studies have shown opioids were prescribed in nearly one-third of ER visits and about 1 out of 5 ER patients are sent home with opioid prescriptions.

“Preventing new patients from becoming addicted to opioids may have a greater effect on the opioid epidemic than providing sustained treatment to patients already addicted,” Dr. Demetrios Kyriacou, an emergency medicine specialist at SEE PATIENTS, P20

their ambitions for learning at the highest possible levels in a diverse environment. The program takes artistic expression and weaves it throughout academic classes to challenge creativity and academics.

Students in the program choose areas of focus including theater, instrumental music, vocal music, visual arts, writing, fashion design, interior design and culinary arts.

From there, they will receive intensive instruction to increase their artistic achievement and develop a lifelong love of the arts. In PAH English and social studies classes, teachers collaborate across curricular areas to produce creative, rigorous lessons in an arts context that broaden students’ understanding of both academic content and their world. The program culminates with a senior capstone that showcases the artistic talents and academic achievement of the PAH students.

As a visual arts student with a focus on ceramics, Stone uses what she learns in chemistry to be a better artist. “I make glazes for my pottery,” she said. “A lot of the things we learn in chemistry, I use in art, so I know what chemicals are OK to mix

County who beat all four readiness standards on the ACT. On the 2017 SAT, arts and humanities students at Pomona High scored above average for Jeffco, State and college readiness in all three academic areas.

Collett has been teaching at Pomona for three years, but he has been part of the arts program for much longer. As a high school student, Collett chose to audition for PAH and spent all four years of his high school education in the program. After receiving degrees in musical theater and theater education, Collett came back to his alma mater to help bring that experience to others.

“The PAH program is really what skyrocketed me into theater because I was doing it all the time in all my core classes,” Collett said. “I was able to take what I learned when I read the book and turn it into this incredible experience. Now, being back here as a teacher, it’s cool seeing the lens of how teachers we turn the content into the experience.”

North Arvada Middle School eighth-grader Beth Anderson, 13, draws and plays the violin. She hopes to find a home in Pomona’s arts and humanities program next year.

“I really have heard a lot of great things about Pomona and the art integrated program,” Anderson said after listening to a presentation from teachers the evening of Nov. 6. “I’ve always been interested in art and self expression so I thought this would be a fun thing to look into.”

yler” is an honor student who is in three Advanced Placement classes, scored in the 95th percentile on HITTING his SAT, and is on HOME track to attend a highly regarded college. Tyler goes home after school and spends hours reviewing the minutiae of quantum physics and economic policy, and comes to class highly prepared every day.

Michael Alcorn “Lucy” is also an honor student, who is in two Advanced Placement

classes, scored in the 90th percentile on her SAT, and is on track to attend a very good state university. Lucy has also been on the swim team for three years, winning the 100-yard freestyle at the district meet, and has been on the staff of the school newspaper for three years, serving as the sports editor.

So which one of these two students do you think is going to win a prestigious fellowship when they are 25?

According to Warren Willingham of the Personal Qualities Project of the Educational Testing Service (the people who bring to you the Advanced Placement tests), the answer is undoubtedly Lucy.

Willingham and his team tracked thousands of students, kept records

on more than 100 personal characteristics, and came to the conclusion that sustained involvement and success in extra- and co-curricular activities is the number one predictor of success.

Extracurriculars, in fact, are so important that they are the only involvement Dr. Angela Duckworth uses to assign a predictive score to students’ achievements. Dr. Duckworth uses what she calls a “Grit Grid,” and it is very simple: a student gets one point for participating in an activity for two or more years, another point for achieving some level of success or leadership, and a third point for some high achievement—All-State or the like. In Dr. Duckworth’s world, a student who scores a “6”—high achievement in two activities—is almost a

Veterans Day — what it means to them, and us

O

ur military service taught us and molded us in multiple ways. We know how to work hard, learn difficult things quickly, and make difficult decisions with incomplete information. But we also learned not to stick out. There is a reason we wore camouflage uniforms. We all looked the same, which reminded us that we were all small parts of something much bigger than ourselves. Drawing attention to yourself just distracted from more important things.

We are good at hiding: our observation posts from the bad guys, our fears from our battle buddies and families, and ourselves from the Sergeant looking for young soldiers sleeping in the barracks when they are supposed to be cleaning their vehicles. We did these things because they kept us safe.

We learned to protect and focus on others. That’s both good and bad For some veterans, these now-innate abilities can cause problems. Think of the veteran who discloses to her doctor that she has nightmares about Afghanistan three times a week because she doesn’t want to take a referral that could go to a veteran “who really needs it.” There is also the veteran experiencing homelessness who didn’t mention his service in the Gulf War when asked by the police officer checking in on him because he is embarrassed by the “fake veterans” panhandling at intersections with signs proclaiming military service.

And the Khe Sanh veteran who became one of the “20-a-day” lost to suicide because he believed asking for help somehow made him less of a Marine.

There are many veterans who could use some

serious help. We offer that at Jefferson Center (303-425-0300). But please don’t forget most veterans aren’t hiding on the margins of society. We are your neighbor. In your yoga group. Teaching your kids. Giving you a ticket on Wadsworth when you were only going 6 miles over the speed limit.

We’ve done great things. We are doing greater things and will continue to do so. We generally don’t spend all our time hanging out in our dens looking at old military mementos like they are prized trophies. If we do, that’s where you, our members of the community, can help. We don’t want the spotlight and don’t want to be your “veteran neighbor/ friend/ yoga teacher.” Continuing to have purpose, whatever our individual paths, keeps us going.

How You Can Make a Difference … That Matters Introduce us to your buddy looking to hire an experienced mechanic with a track record of high performance in high-stress situations. Share the flyer from your kid’s school about the need for math tutors or mentors. We don’t see ourselves as “heroes.” Hiding in plain sight is more comfortable.

But Veterans Day is different. Heap on that praise and serve it with a side of free cheeseburgers, barbecue, or coffee. Please remember, the veterans in your community – of all eras – appreciate your good intentions, but not at the cost of living in the spotlight. That’s a lonely place to be. Instead, welcome us as valuable members of community who have both strengths and challenges. That’s how you can directly help in a way that matters most to us.

sure bet to achieve something remarkable early in life.

A student who tries four different sports over four years receives zero points; a student who plays piano, then guitar, then trumpet, each for a year, receives zero points. It is the ability and the willingness to stick with something that points to the sort of personal commitment that predicts a bright future.

It pains me to say this, but, as I look around at the schools I teach at, and the schools my family is involved with, Tyler is a student tailor-made for Jefferson County Schools, circa 2017; Lucy would do better to seek her education elsewhere.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Strings attached to this tax cut Congress describes their proposed tax cut as a wonderful Christmas present for all of us. This sounds delightful, but it is only half of the story.

Although the middle class may enjoy minimal tax relief and the top earners will enjoy significant cuts, there has been little conversation about how we will pay for these drastic changes. The proposed cuts will result in $1.5 trillion in debt over the next decade. This will certainly mean cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, infrastructure, small business incentives, investments in renewable energy, investments in medical research, investments in affordable housing, National Park funding, and much more.

Are we really willing to strip down our federal government to a dysfunctional shell simply for a small tax break this Christmas? I’m not willing to sacrifice investing in our children’s future America for a few dollars in lower taxes this holiday.

Robin Kupernik, Arvada A lot of mumbo jumbo from Jeffco In response to Dr. Glass and his invitation for a conversation. I don’t know if it was me, and I have a Masters in Poli /Sci, but I didn’t really understand what Dr. Glass was talking about. To me it all seemed to be a lot of “mumbo jumbo.” There was nothing, as is the case of the board and the superintendent, on what the real goals should be: reading, writing and arithmetic.

Are there any goals to raise these scores and to cut down on less kids graduating? What does a “learning centered vision” mean? What kind of curriculum do you intend to have? I feel that all these lofty goals are all touchy feely! For the $1.2 million that the school board paid you, you should be able to speak plainly to the taxpayers and not give us “mumbo jumbo.” Unless that was the purpose all along.

OBITUARIES DROBECK Peter A. Drobeck

3/13/1954 - 11/1/2017

Peter A. Drobeck passed away in Golden, Colorado on Wednesday November 1, 2017.

Born in Detroit, Michigan on March 13, 1954, he spent his formative years in East Greenbush, NY where he came to appreciate his parents’ great love of nature and music. Graduating in 1977 From SUNY New Paltz with a Bachelor of Arts, he went on to pursue his passion for geology at the Colorado School of Mines where he completed his Master of Science in 1979.

His work as an exploration geologist took him to Mexico, Central and South America, Mongolia, India, Africa and Indonesia. He was passionate about finding the next great precious metals discovery. Everywhere he went he enjoyed immersing himself in and

getting to know the local culture. His mix of intelligence, charm, mischievous humor and joyful storytelling made him a favorite everywhere. Fortunately his personal passions were portable— fishing, hiking, music, skiing, and especially adventure. He will be missed by many and is survived by his wife Kharen Drobeck, daughter Melissa Mullins, sons Jason and Ale Drobeck, sisters Karen Watson and Susan “Charly” Drobeck, and brother David Drobeck.

A memorial service will be held on December 9, 2017 at 2:00 pm at the First United Methodist Church of Golden.

Get into the holiday spirit with music, food

D

Theatrical options for the holiday season The Arvada Center is celebrating the holiday season with a classic family story, “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.”

Traditonal to modern shows offer something for everyone

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he holidays mean something different to everyone, but if there’s one thing that most can agree on, it is that they should be spent with the people who mean the most to us.

And as far as activities go for the holidays, few are better than sharing the community and thrill of live theater.

“The holidays are the time of year when people are busiest, so it’s really special that they make time to be together at the theater,” said Josh Hartwell, a playwright and actor who

has written two holiday shows this season — one at Lakewood’s The Edge Theater and Golden’s Miners Alley Playhouse. “It makes you feel closer to the people you care about when you make time to do things with them.”

This time of year, theater-goers have a variety of options to select from — more traditional to dark comedies and shows that highlight holiday themes, like “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” which is playing at the Arvada Center. “’Joseph’ is a great family-oriented show, with some wonderful messages,” said Stephen Day, who plays Jacob and Potiphar in the show.

“There’s powerful moments of redemption, and a great exploration of family dynamics.”

The musical brings together all kinds of genres, from pop and country to rock. Which means there’s something for everyone to enjoy in the show, said Sarah Rex, the narra-

espite all the shoppers big box stores see on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving wasn’t all that special for Angelo Coiro, owner of Angelo’s CDs and More.

But when Record Store Day started making exclusive releases on Black Friday, everything changed.

“It’s been a big help to use, and we do triple what we used to on that Friday,” he said. “Suddenly, Black Friday is relevent to us again.”

During the Record Store Day Black Friday event, independent record stores COMING all three of AnATTRACTIONS like gelo’s locations, Twist and Shout, Black and Read, Wax Trax, and others will be opening at much more reasonable hours (usually around 8 a.m. or so) to sell limited versions of unique releases on vinyl, tapes and CDs. Clarke Reader Some items sure to go first include a 7-inch single of “Baby It’s Cold Outside” by local favorites Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon” on two LPs, and Gorillaz’s latest album, “Humanz,” on two LP picture discs.

“We have donuts and other treats for the first people who arrive, and there will be live music at some locations,” Coiro added. “There are also sales and specials we’ll have going all weekend.”

Go to www.recordstoreday.com to find the record nearest you, compile your wishlist, and make a plan for the day.

tor in “Joseph.”

Another show that embraces the theme of the season is “Seussical,” which is plays at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center. The show is an amalgamation of several of the Dr. Seuss’ most popular stories, including “Horton Hears a Who,” “The Cat in the Hat,” “The One-Feathered Tail of Miss Gertrude McFuzz” and “Horton Hatches an Egg.” “Christmas and the end-of-year holiday celebrations are all about family, and there is a long-time tradition of families sharing certain productions together, passing the experience on to new generations to share,” said Bob Wells, director of the show. “’A Christmas Carol’ and ‘The Nutcracker’ are the champions, and I hope ‘Seussical,’ with its story, music, dance, sets and costumes, will become part of the merry tradition.”

An album listening party at a movie theater Denver-based Vinyl Me, Please, a record-of-the-month club where subscribers are sent one record each month, has been growing by leaps and bounds since it was first created in 2013.

To coincide with the release of its album of the month, the company started The Spins, listening parties where people can party while checking out the album.

For November, Vinyl Me, Please, selected St. Vincent’s latest album, “Masseducation,” and to celebrate, are hosting a listening party at the BarFly, located in Sloan Lake’s new Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, 4255 W. Colfax Ave. Beginning at 6 p.m. on Nov. 17, the event will feature a mixology class, movie screening and a silent disco curated by DJ Details and the Vinyl Me, Please staff.

Those looking for more off kilter fare can check out “The SantaLand Diaries” at The Jones at the Denver Center for Performing, based on David Sedaris’ experiences from his stint as a Macy’s elf in New York City, and the world premiere of “Resolutions,” written by Hartwell and directed by Missy Moore at The Edge.

“The idea was to create a holiday show that wasn’t really about the holidays,” Hartwell said. “It’s kind of a Quentin Tarantino holiday show.

It’s something unlike everything else out there.”

The show is about three middleaged couples who meet up after the holidays at a cabin in Vail. Each year their social event includes exchanging white elephant gifts, making their resolutions for the upcoming year and, of course, some drinking. But as relationships change, so does the event.

“It’s a black comedy, but it has some grimness, too,” Hartwell added.

For the traditionalists, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts’ production of “A Christmas Carol” is a perennial favorite, and hard to top.

But for a more personal approach, Hartwell adapted Charles Dickens’ classic for Miners Alley in Golden.

His version follows six local actors who challenge each other to bring Dickens’ classic to life as swiftly and simply as possible. This allows for a blending of the classic elements of the fable to mix with modern sensibilities.

“The journey is so interesting, and I think Scrooge is more complex than people realize,” said Jim Hunt, who plays the miser in the production.

“People who come to our show are going to see something fresh and new.

In the end, it’s about family and coziness, and that fits with the holiday season.”

Not just a man’s job

Female farmers hold important roles in agriculture industry

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Danell Kalcevic was in kindergarten, an assignment asked her to describe what she wanted to be when she grows up.

“It sounds silly,” Kalcevic, 48, said, but what she put on the assignment was a farmer’s wife.

Fast forward and Kalcevic is partowner of Kalcevic Farms, which are located near Bennett and Lindon in eastern Colorado. Their primary crop is wheat, but they also farm corn, millet, sunflowers and cattle feed. The farm has been in Kalcevic’s husband’s family since it got its start near Denver in the 60th Avenue and Pecos Street area in 1898. It has been at the Bennett location since 1952.

“I love that it’s something we can do as a family,” Kalcevic said. “It takes a team to do what we do. In this country, it’s families that make up the farms.”

In April 2002, Kalcevic left her career as a project and product manager with Horizon Software to stay home with her two children. It was then that she slowly started picking up some tasks involving the operations of the farm. And now, she is an integral part of it.

Since the beginning of farming, women have been involved with the family farm behind the scenes — cooking, cleaning, bookkeeping, Kalcevic said.

“But because it’s always been men in the equipment and running the

machinery, it’s been assumed that it’s men running the farm,” she added.

However, in today’s world, there are more women operating farms and pursuing high-end careers in the agriculture industry.

“The independent female can go out and start her own farm,” said Colleen Peppler, a retired educator who is a partner of Peppler Farms in Weld County. “It doesn’t have to be a man.”

Leveling the playing field According to the latest Census of Agriculture — which is conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture — 30 percent of the nation’s farmers were women in 2012, up from 27 percent a decade earlier. These female farmers controlled 7 percent of the farmland in the U.S. The Census of Agriculture is conducted every five years, and the 2017 census will be done this winter.

In Colorado, the USDA states that women farmers make up 37 percent of the state’s producers. There are 21,443 women farmers in Colorado who farm more than 13 million acres.

“We’re starting to see a very level playing field,” said Jennifer Tucker, the small acreage agent for CSU Extension in Adams County. “Ranchers and farmers within the agriculture industry don’t see it as a man’s industry.”

Peppler Farms consists of four locations in Weld County near Mead. In August, one of the farms was honored at the Colorado State Fair by the Colorado Department of Agriculture

Peppler Farms produce corn used for livestock feed, wheat, alfalfa hay and beer barley for Coors.

Peppler’s father was a wheat farmer in eastern Colorado, so she has been hands-on with farm operations since she was about 13, she said. In fact, she and her two sisters were her father’s “harvest crew,” Peppler said.

And Kalcevic’s two daughters, Tabor, 19, and Asia, 16, are also very much involved in their family farm’s operations.

“Often, when people think of a farmer, they think of a man,” Tabor Kalcevic said. But “when women step into

in soil and crop science and agriculture business. She hopes to someday become the CEO of Kalcevic Farms.

“Women bring a different perspective to any industry,” Tabor Kalcevic said. Different, in a good way though, she added. “A strong work ethic is what gets you there.”

More than ranching, farming There is a lot of interest among young women wanting to enter a career in agriculture, said Brooke Fox, CEO of the Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation, also known as CALF. Career fields pertaining to agriculture are just about endless, she said. Careers can be anything from veterinarians, livestock producers and crop scientists to lawyers, media relations, mechanics and those who develop the new technologies for modern-day equipment, said Fox, who grew up on a cattle ranch near Larkspur.

“It’s not just ranching and farming,” she said. “No matter what your interests are, you can find a place in agriculture.”

CALF is a nonprofit organization dedicated to connecting people of all ages and abilities to agriculture through educational programs, community projects and special events.

Since 2009, CALF has served more than 19,000 children, Fox said, and annually, between 10 and 15 students in 4-H or members of Future Farmers of America raise livestock at the foundation’s working educational ranch, Lowell Ranch, in Castle Rock.

“Every person on the planet relies on agriculture in some form,” Fox said. “We need everyone to be thinking about our future and how to produce healthy, safe food.”

Both Danell Kalcevic and Peppler are volunteers with a group called CommonGround, which is a national grassroots movement designed to help

bridge the gap between the women who grow food and the women who buy it.

For the most part, it is still primarily women who do the grocery shopping for most households in the U.S., Peppler said. Therefore, she added, women “are a keen ear of knowing what consumers want.”

CommonGround volunteers share their personal experiences, science and research to help consumers sort through the growing number of myths and misinformation surrounding food and farming.

“We’re the ones who start conversations in the grocery store,” Peppler said. “This is our career. And we take the responsibility of growing the nation’s food very seriously.”

A greater understanding Most people today are between four and five generations removed from agriculture, Fox said. She added that unlike in the past, it is uncommon for the majority of today’s children to have a grandparent who grew up on a farm.

This means that people are becoming “less and less aware of where their food comes from,” Fox said.

Most of today’s society is far removed from producing its own food, Kalcevic said.

“The further removed we are, the more fearful we become” of the food we eat, Kalcevic said. “CommonGround helps consumers understand that farmers are regular people who are eating the same food that everybody else is serving their families.”

There are a lot of misconceptions out there about what farmers and ranchers do, said Tucker, who lives on a small-acreage ranch near Bennett and raises sheep and horses.

But overall, man or woman, “everybody in the agriculture industry wants a safe food supply,” Tucker said.

Although production agriculturalists are a small percentage of the U.S. population, she said, no matter

And most likely, they would be willing to bring you out to their

“We’d love to show you what we do,” she said, “because we’re pretty proud of it.”

“She hid those symptoms really well, even from us,” Romanoff said. “If she had any other condition, a bump, a lump, she wouldn’t have hid it from us, and we wouldn’t have hesitated to get her care.”

The dashboard is not without its limitations. Romanoff acknowledges that some of the studies used to compile the data are not done annually, and some rely on self reporting. Overall, he said the size of Colorado’s mental health needs are probably only conservatively reflected in the dashboard figures.

Beyond the data, the website includes a tab for individuals looking for ways to connect to local officials to advocate for change, and also a tab for people to share their personal stories of struggling with mental health — both things that Romanoff says the group hopes will spark real change for the better.

Stuck in the Middle, a social support group for spouses and caregivers of those with chronic illnesses, meets at 10:30 a.m. Thursdays.

Perhaps you’ve been a caregiver for years, your spouse or family member has moved to a facility and now you are faced with the isolation of living alone. Or your loved one is at home and you would like an opportunity to relax and talk with people who understand the pressures caregivers face. Would you like to meet others in similar situations? SITM

ALCORN

Are we getting new or better sports fields, music equipment, or theater technology? Are we going to restart middle school athletics, or support expanded days that allow middle school students to take more and diverse electives?

Or are we just doing more of the same, trying to play catch up?

Because, I have to say, if we’re doing all this, and sixth graders end up at middle schools that give them fewer opportunities than their elementary schools did, then I really don’t see the point. Our students deserve ambitious programs that build character, in their schools, not the embarrassing reality that we are more like Denver Schools than we are our neighbors to the north and south.

FROM PAGE 14

With the re-election of the School Board now in the rear view mirror, you can expect several things to happen. For one thing, the transition of the sixth grade to the middle schools will go forward. For another thing, it is a safe bet that next fall, we’ll be voting on a mill and bond package to raise money for the schools. Early speculation puts the number somewhere north of $1 billion. There is also some talk of the district creating a “School for the Arts,” similar to the Denver model.

Obviously, some of that money is to build buildings, and some of it is to support the sixth grade transition. But, I have to ask: Is any of it to rebuild or enhance programs that encourage student activities?

Lakewood High School’s Emsbo twins — Kira and Camilla — signed there National Letter of Intent on Nov. 8 to play basketball at Princeton University and Yale University. A list of other Jeffco athlete signers on PAGE 25.

Lakewood’s Emsbo twins going Ivy League as Jeffco athletes commit

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — The Emsbo twins — Camilla and Kira — are going their separate ways.

Lakewood High School’s 6-foot-4 identical twins made their separation official Nov. 8 on the first day of the early National Letter of Intent signing period. Both are headed to Ivy League schools. Kira having decided on Princeton University and Camilla signing with Yale University.

“I think it was important for me to separate from my sister,” Camilla said with a smile. “It will be a tough transition, but I think it’s really important for our growth.”

Camilla gave her verbal commitment to Yale in early October. A few months after Kira made her decision on Princeton. Both carry GPAs of 4.8 in Lakewood’s IB program.

While the twins have gone against each other in practice for years, they will get a chance to face each other at least twice a year during their time at the Ivy League programs.

“It going to be the best and worst two days of our lives I think,” Camilla said of facing Kira on the basketball court. “Our parents are already freaking out about it. We play hard against each other in practice.

It won’t be any different. There is a good possibility one or both of us foul out, but it will definitely be fun games for sure.”

Unfortunately, the next time both

are on the basketball court will be in college. Kira discovered through a recent MRI on her knee that she has a torn ACL that she suffered this summer playing club basketball.

Kira had surgery scheduled to repair her torn ACL on Tuesday, Nov. 14. It will be a 6 to 9 month recovery, so she will be ready for the start of her freshman year at Princeton. Kira missed time her junior year during Lakewood’s first girls basketball state title appearance last season with an arm injury she suffered early in the season.

“I was kind of hoping this would be my year since I missed time last year and wasn’t that big of a presence on the floor,” Kira said. “But it gives me the opportunity to work on the leadership side of things and give support in other ways.”

Lakewood girls basketball coach Chris Poisson said the Tigers will make the most of the devastating injury as Lakewood attempts to make another long playoff run.

“Your heart breaks for her,” Poisson said of Lakewood’s ‘honorary assistant coach.’ “She had a great summer. She was on a mission. I was pretty excited. We’ll put a positive light on it and be the best we can.”

Camilla, who averaged nearly 20 points per game and almost nine rebounds, will have to carry a heavy load again when the season begins in December for the Tigers.

“It’s brutal,” Camilla said of Kira’s torn ACL that will prevent her from

playing. “She is one of the most positive and optimistic people I’ve ever met. She isn’t letting it get her down.”

Looking beyond high school, the Emsbo twins believe their selected university are a perfect fit.

“I was originally was going to wait longer then I did, but it got halfway through the summer and I wasn’t going to change my mind,” Kira said about verbally committing to Princeton in June. “This was what I want academically. I love the coaches. I love the school. It was the prefect place for me.”

Camilla is just as excited about heading to Yale.

“Obviously, academics are a huge priority for me,” Camilla said. “I think the Ivy League is where you get that perfect balance of academics and athletics.”

It’s the first time Poisson has had a player, let alone two players, sign with Division I programs.

“My Dad (Joe Poisson, a longtime girls basketball coach at Arvada High School) always talked about that,” said Poisson about how his late father never coached a future DI player. “I got two and from the same family. Are you kidding? I’ve been lucky and blessed. You don’t take it for granted because it doesn’t come around very often.”

Roy Halladay left good memories through years in baseball Ralston Valley baseball coach Brad Madden grew up playing baseball with Roy Halladay.

It didn’t take Madden long to realize that Halladay, who was his teammate at Arvada West, was a special player.

Halladay, 40, was killed Nov. 7 when OVERTIME the OICON A5 sport aircraft he was piloting crashed into the Gulf of Mexico.

He was a 1995 graduate of Arvada West and was a 17th-round draft pick of the Toronto Blue Jays.

He was an eight-time Jim Benton all-star with Toronto and Philadelphia and a Cy Young Award winner in both the American and National Leagues.

“From the time I met Roy as a 9-year-old, he was a dominant pitcher, player and a fierce competitor,” Madden said.

Halladay, who is one of only two pitchers to throw a post-season nohitter, had a 203-105 major league pitching record with a 3.38 earned run average. He was inducted into the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame in 2015 and likely will be a future inductee into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

“Baseball players in Colorado now could learn from him,” said Adams State baseball coach Jim Capra, who was Halladay’s coach at Arvada West.

“Everything you hear about him at the major league level are the same as when he was young. He was as good off the field as he was on the field. He was very coachable and a good teammate. He was very level-headed about the things he might do in the future.”

Halladay was one of the reasons that pro baseball scouts and college recruiters now pay more attention to Colorado prospects.

“Roy’s success paved the way for Colorado players past and future to get a chance,” added Madden. “Before him it was unheard of for pro scouts to come to Colorado to find players. He put Colorado on the baseball map. Roy was the hardest-working person I have ever known and he dedicated all his effort to making himself one of the best pitchers in Major League baseball history and a future Hall of Famer.”

Remembering Roy Halladay

FROM PAGE 24

Former Major League Baseball pitcher shined at Arvada West

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES GUIDE

The hard work and determination Roy Halladay brought to his athletics is something Jeff Legault, baseball coach at Dakota Ridge High School, teaches to his players daily.

As an assistant coach at Arvada West High School in the early 1990s, Legault remembers Halladay lifting in his hotel room instead of hanging by the pool with his teammates when the team was on the road.

“I can teach my kids at Dakota Ridge what it takes to be a major league player and point out if they aren’t working hard enough to get there,” Legault said.

Halladay, a former Major League Baseball AllStar and a 1995 Arvada West graduate, died Nov. 7 when his single-engine plane crashed into the Gulf of Mexico off the Florida coast. He was 40.

“It’s really sad to see him go,” Legault said. “He left a lasting impression. His legacy still lives and impacts Colorado baseball.”

Halladay was a three-sport athlete at Arvada West High School in cross country, basketball and baseball. He led the Arvada West baseball team to the 6A state championship title in 1994 and was described as “an ace right-hander” who led the Wildcats to a return appearance in the class 6A prep championship game in 1995.

Also in 1995 he was named All District, All State, All American and Player of the Year for baseball.

“We were proud to have him on our team as a Wildcat,” a statement from Arvada West High School read.

Out of high school, Halladay was drafted to the Toronto Blue Jays in the first round and played for the team from 1998 through 2009, after which he was traded to Philadelphia.

While playing for both the American and National leagues, Halladay was a two-time Cy

Roy Halladay, Arvada West High School graduate and former Major League Baseball player, died Nov. 7 in a plane crash. MLB PHOTOS VIA GETTY IMAGES Young Award Winner for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2003 and Philadelphia Phillies in 2010. He was an eight-time All Star Team selection.

Halladay retired from baseball nearly four years ago. He will be eligible for the MLB Hall of Fame in 2019.

“He was a special talent as far as baseball is concerned,” said Mike Mulvaney, athletic director at Arvada West High School. “He was a good example of the way you should handle yourself.

We always strive for our athletes to be leaders and good community members.”

And Halladay didn’t forget about his hometown of Arvada.

During his time in the MLB, he was generous to the Arvada West athletic program, donating resources that are still supporting students today.

And his legacy remains visible in the community.

A banner on the press box at the Arvada West High School baseball stadium celebrates Halladay as a Wildcat. His retired number hangs on the outfield wall.

Plans are in the works to honor his memory at the start of this coming spring baseball season.

MINOR HOME REPAIRS

Halladay led Arvada West to the 1994 Class 6A state championship. The Wildcats lost to Cherry Creek in the 1995 5A title game but Halladay didn’t pitch because he was used in the semifinals.

“He pitched as a freshman but his sophomore year is when he really opened eyes of coaches and players,” recalled Capra. “It was like going from high school to the major leagues in one year. He has a great high school career and was one of the best players to come out of Colorado.”

Phil Ross, a retired former high school and college umpire, called Halladay an exemplary individual who was universally well-liked by his peers and fans.

He recalls working two games in which Halladay played.

“The first time in did a Wildcats game he was a sophomore, playing first base and I was the base umpire,” recalled Ross. “He was the best player I officiated in a two-decade umpiring career but also the most polite.

“The following season I was behind the plate when Roy pitched a no-hitter. I didn’t realize it. As I was walking towards the parking lot an excited man exclaimed, “Do you know you just called a no-hitter?” I saw the line score the next day. I felt good.”

Enrollment numbers Enrollment splits to determine which classifications schools will play in for the 2018-20 cycle were set by the Classification and League Organizing Committee on Nov. 7.

I often hear coaches commenting about school size especially when playing a bigger school, so it was nice to see some figures, although enrollment numbers don’t always translate into athletic success, especially with open enrollment.

So to start with an easy question, what school has the largest enrollment?

Yep, Cherry Creek with 3,654 students but which school is second?

That would be Montbellow in far northeast Denver with 2,964.

Gross Reservoir, Ralston Creek Reservoir, the South Boulder Diversion Conduit, and Denver Power Conduit No. 1 are existing structures.

The Applicant has regularly operated the Subject Water Rights during the diligence period.

Completion of this appropriation will depend upon the enlargement of Gross Reservoir, South Boulder Conduit and Ralston Reservoir, future hydrologic circumstances and demands in the Denver Municipal Water System. The activities completed by Applicant during the most recent diligence period are set forth below: a. Gross Reservoir: i. Completed Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Consultant Safety Inspection Report (CSIR) at Gross Dam. ii. Conducted a seismic hazard assessment at Gross dam as part of FERC requirements. iii. Completed high pressure water jetting to clean foundation drains as part of FERC Safety Inspection Report. iv. Replaced electrical duct bank after September 2013 floods. v. Conducted hydraulic and mechanical studies on the turbine for operations at greater head. vi. Completed Gross reservoir outlet tunnel inspection and condition assessment. vii. Purchased two cone-valves after a condition assessment of all free discharging valves revealed erosion damage on two fixed-cone valves installed in 1978. viii. Signed an IGA with Colorado Division of Water Resources for the maintenance, operation and data transmission of gages at Gross Reservoir. ix. On July 6, 2016 the Army Corps of Engineers issued a Record of Decision for a Section 404 Permit for Denver Water’s Moffat Collection System Project. On August 23, 2017 Denver Water’s CEO signed the 404 permit, and the Colonel of the Army Corps of Engineers’ signature followed on September 18, 2017. This marked a significant milestone in Denver Water’s effort to complete the Moffat Collection System Project. After 14 years of National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis and review under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, the Corps’ decision verified Denver Water’s need for greater reliability, flexibility and firm yield in its North System to deal with existing vulnerability and future demand. The Corps’ Record of Decision concludes that the least environmentally damaging alternative to address these needs is expansion of Gross Reservoir to store an additional 77,000 acre-feet of water, which will create 18,000 acre-feet of new water supply each year and include a 5,000 acre foot Environmental Pool. x. The following details major work done during the diligence period specifically for the Gross Reservoir Expansion Project: 1. Completed Gross Reservoir base mapping. 2. Prepared geological mapping and reports for the expansion site. 3. Completed concept level design drawings of the proposed rock quarry. 4. Performed a wetland delineation and confirmation at Gross Reservoir. 5. Finished updating the recreational management plan for Gross Reservoir at the Haul Road, Dam and Peninsula recreation areas. 6. Contracted with the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office for Ranger Patrol services at Gross Reservoir. 7.

Performed geotechnical drilling project at the proposed quarry site. 8. Completed test of quarry, haul and process of materials at quarry site. 9. Completed preliminary engineering study to evaluate roadways and provide design drawings for roadway improvements. 10. Performed construction-related noise assessments at Gross dam. 11. Hired a Community Engagement Facilitator and Outreach Support team to lead an engagement effort with the communities surrounding Gross Reservoir that will be impacted by the Gross Reservoir Expansion construction activities. 12. Developed design of roadway improvements and traffic control plans to provide a safe haul route to the construction site. 13. Performed geophysics and subsurface investigations on the Rogers Fault. 14. Completed a site-specific probable maximum precipitation and inflow design flood to define the flood criteria for the new dam as required by FERC and the State Engineers Office (SEO). 15. The Corps and Denver Water signed a programmatic agreement regarding compliance with the National Historic Preservation Act for the construction and operation of the expanded Gross Reservoir. 16. Completed acoustic engineering to update noise producing locations and recommend sound control systems. 17. Appointed an Owners Representative to form an integrated project team for Gross Reservoir Expansion Project. 18. Denver Water partnered with the City of Boulder in its stream restoration project on South Boulder Creek below Gross Reservoir, as mitigation under its 404 Permit for the Moffat Collection System Project. 19. Denver Water retained CDM Smith in 2013 to help prepare an application for 401 Water Quality Certification from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). As part of this effort, CDPHE requested Denver Water develop a Dynamic Stream Temperature Model and submit the model results in its application for 401 water quality certification. These analyses were required in addition to water quality studies completed for the Final EIS. CDPHE Water Quality Control Division issued the Public Notice for the final 401 Water Quality Certification for the Moffat Project on June 23, 2016. This Certification was incorporated into the Corps permitting process. 20. In late 2013 and 2014 Denver Water in collaboration with the US Army Corps of Engineers and US Fish and Wildlife Service, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, and US Forest Service commissioned OneFish Engineering to determine the feasibility and associated costs for installing fish screens at four sites within the Moffat Collection System. This resulted in a report titled “Denver Water Fish Screen Alternative Analysis Report.” which determined that it would be feasible to install fish screens at the four

final 401 Water Quality Certification for the Moffat Project on June 23, 2016. This Certification was incorporated into the Corps permitting process. 20. In late 2013 and 2014 Denver Water in collaboration with the US Army Corps of Engineers and US Fish and Wildlife Service, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, and US Forest Service commissioned OneFish Engineering to determine the feasibility and associated costs for installing fish screens at four sites within the Moffat Collection System. This resulted in a report titled “Denver Water Fish Screen Alternative Analysis Report.” which determined that it would be feasible to install fish screens at the four sites, it also recommended screen types, configurations and costs of installing the recommended fish screens. Additionally, Denver Water has chosen to pursue the possibility of installation of fish ladders at some of its existing diversions and culverts. Denver Water also received its Biological Opinions, under the Endangered Species Act, for impacts of the Moffat Collections System Project to threatened and endangered species, including the green lineage cutthroat trout. 21.

described in the 2009CW266 decree. An additional source of exchange water is a nontributary well owned by Greenwood Village, Permit No. 30210-F decreed in Case Nos. W-2978 and 85CW046, that is located in the NE1/4SW1/4 of Section 15, T5S, R67W of the 6th P.M. (“Well”) that could be utilized to release water to Goldsmith Gulch. 4.2.4 Description of Exchange Reach: The exchange rights decreed in Case No. 2009CW266 operate within all or part of the following reach: from Denver’s point of replacement described at or upstream of the proposed Lupton Lakes Reservoir Complex located in the SE1/4SW1/4 of Section 18, T1N, R66W of the 6th P.M. up the South Platte River to the confluence of Cherry Creek in the NE1/4NW1/4 of Section 33, T3S, R68W of the 6th P.M., then up Cherry Creek to the confluence of Goldsmith Gulch in the SW1/4NE1/4 of Section 20, T4S, R67W of the P.M., then up Goldsmith Gulch to the point of depletion on an unnamed tributary of Goldsmith Gulch in the NW1/4NW1/4 of Section 22, T5S, R67W of the 6th P.M.; for water released to the South Platte River from points upstream of its confluence with Cherry Creek, the exchange reach is up Cherry Creek, then up Goldsmith Gulch to the point of depletion on an unnamed tributary of Goldsmith Gulch in the NW1/4NW1/4 of Section 22, T5S, R67W of the 6th P.M. A map showing the locations of the exchange reaches and replacement points is attached as Exhibit 1. 4.2.5 Amounts: Each of the exchange rights involving Denver lease water is decreed for 2.83 c.f.s., which is also a cumulative limit for all of the exchange rights decreed in Case No. 2009CW266. The exchange right involving Greenwood Village’s Well is decreed for 0.45 c.f.s. The exchange right involving the exchange reach from the confluence of Cherry Creek and the South Platte River to the Pond was decreed absolute in Case No. 2009CW266 for 0.19 c.f.s. All other amounts of the exchange rights decreed in Case No. 2009CW266 are conditional. 4.2.6 Appropriation Date: January 1, 2007. 5. Claim to Make Tommy Davis Park Pond Absolute in Part for Irrigation Use: 5.1 Date water applied to decreed beneficial use: During protracted free-river periods from September 16, 2013 through October 21, 2013 and April 17, 2015 through July 28, 2015, Greenwood Village stored 4.73 acre-feet of water in the Pond for the beneficial uses decreed in Case No. 2009CW266. In-priority Pond inflow exceeded 5 acre-feet and 4.73 acre-feet was stored based upon 7.0-foot staff gage readings and the Pond’s stage-capacity relationship. This relationship and these free river periods are shown in the attached Exhibit 2. 5.2 Amount Claimed Absolute for Irrigation Use: 4.73 acrefeet. 5.3 The irrigation use is being made absolute for 4.73 acre-feet of the total 5 acre-feet decreed to the Pond, with 0.27 acre-feet remaining conditional. The irrigation use is being made absolute pursuant to C.R.S. § 37-92-301(4)(e) which states: “A decreed conditional water storage right shall be made absolute for all decreed purposes to the extent of the volume of the appropriation that has been captured, possessed, and controlled at the decreed storage structure.”

6. Claim to Make Absolute in Part the Exchange from the Metropolitan Denver Wastewater Plant, currently known as the Robert W. Hite Treatment Facility (“Hite Plant”). 6.1 Date of Operation of the Exchange Right: On July 9, 2017, 0.05 c.f.s. was released to the South Platte River from the Hite Plant to refill by exchange 0.0858 acre-feet of the Pond lost to evaporation at a rate of 0.04 c.f.s. On July 9, 2017, the call on the South Platte River was downstream of the Hite Plant with the Brantner Ditch bypassing to the Hewes Cook Ditch. This is summarized in the attached Exhibit 3. There was no call on Cherry Creek or Goldsmith Gulch. Therefore, a rate of 0.04 c.f.s. is being made absolute for the exchange right from the Hite Plant to the Pond.

6.2 Amount Claimed Absolute: 0.04 c.f.s. 7. Outline of diligence during the diligence period towards completion of the appropriation and application of water to beneficial use as conditionally decreed. Greenwood Village’s diligence includes without limitation the following: 7.1 Greenwood Village has made annual lease payments to Denver for the exchange water utilized in the exchange rights. 7.2 Greenwood Village has completed accounting for the Pond storage and exchange operations pursuant to the decree in Case No. 2009CW266. 7.3 Greenwood Village utilized its water consultants Bishop-Brogden Associates, Inc. (“BBA”) for operations, monitoring, accounting, and technical expertise related to the Pond and exchange rights. Greenwood Village paid BBA approximately $10,500 for these services. 7.4 Greenwood Village and its consultants BBA regularly communicate with the Colorado Division of Water Resources staff, including the Water District 8 Commissioner, regarding the Pond and exchange operations. 7.5 Greenwood Village consulted its water attorneys Petrock & Fendel, P.C. on operations of the Pond, exchange rights, the Denver lease, and related matters paying approximately $3,000 for legal services. 7.6 Greenwood Village undertook a planning and budgeting process for improvements to the Well and its pumping and distribution systems. 8. To the extent, if any, water is diverted directly or by exchange in priority and pursuant to the 2009CW266 decree for any or all of the conditional rights set forth herein while this case remains pending, Greenwood Village reserves the right and may claim some or all of these conditional rights are absolute without amendment of this Application or publication of notice. 9. Name and address of owner of the land upon which water is or will be stored. The City of Greenwood Village as described in ¶1. (5 pages).

APPLICATION FOR AMENDMENT OF DECREES APPROVING WATER RIGHTS , CHANGE OF WATER RIGHTS, A PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION, INCLUDING EXCHANGE AND PLAN OF SUBSTITUTION. IN JEFFERSON AND PARK COUNTIES. 2. Description of Decrees for which Amendment is being Requested: A. Dates Decrees Entered: September 22, 1983 and June 7, 1990. B. Case Nos. W-635572 and 87CW200. C. District Court for Water Division 1. D. The Decrees entered in Case Nos. W-6355-72 and 87CW200 (“existing augmentation plan”), approved a plan for augmentation for a municipal water and wastewater system covering approximately 600 acres in portions of Sections 28, 29 and 33, Township 6 South, Range 71 West, 6th P.M., Jefferson County.

The service area is in the Gooseberry Gulch and Elk Creek drainage basins. The primary sources of augmentation and replacement water are 0.322 cubic feet per second (“cfs”), of the water rights decreed to the Guiraud Ditch (referred to herein as the "Guiraud 3T Ditch Water Right"), which yields 7.0 acre feet of consumptive use water per year, and 95.5 shares of capital stock in the Mountain Mutual Reservoir Company (“MMRC”), representing 3.0 acre feet of storage water to be released from Spinney Mountain

Sections 28, 29 and 33, Township 6 South, Range 71 West, 6th P.M., Jefferson County.

The service area is in the Gooseberry Gulch and Elk Creek drainage basins. The primary sources of augmentation and replacement water are 0.322 cubic feet per second (“cfs”), of the water rights decreed to the Guiraud Ditch (referred to herein as the "Guiraud 3T Ditch Water Right"), which yields 7.0 acre feet of consumptive use water per year, and 95.5 shares of capital stock in the Mountain Mutual Reservoir Company (“MMRC”), representing 3.0 acre feet of storage water to be released from Spinney Mountain Reservoir and the Lower Sacramento Creek Reservoir No. 1 each year. Reference is made to the Decrees entered in Case Nos. W-6355-72 and 87CW200 for a more detailed description of the existing augmentation plan. 3. Proposed Amendment to the Existing Augmentation Plan. a. The Mountain Water and Sanitation District ("MWSD"), service area is located at an elevation of approximately 9,000 feet. Development consists of single-family and multi-family homes, a convenience store and a shopping center. Historically, water usage by customers has been limited to residential in-house use and in-building commercial use. Wastewater from in-building uses is treated using a mechanical type wastewater treatment plant. Treated effluent is discharged to an arm of Gooseberry Gulch at a point in the NE 1/4 NW 1/4 of Section 33, Township 6 South, Range 71 West, 6th P.M. The Decree in Case No. W-6355-72 assumed that inbuilding water usage could be as high as 150.6 acre feet per year at build-out, and that an additional 7.81 acre feet per year would be required to supply the needs of a commercial ski area in Park County that is no longer part of the District.

An evaluation of customer water usage records over a thirty-five year period and the limited potential for future growth in the number of customers has demonstrated that the original water projections were too high. In actuality, water usage and consumption has been a fraction of the initial projection. b. In light of the disparity in the volume of augmentation water available to MWSD and the volume currently being used, MWSD desires to amend the original augmentation plan so that its customers can use water outside their residences and buildings. Customers will be allowed to irrigate limited areas of grasses, flowers and vegetables, maintain water levels in hot tubs and water features, conduct car washing and the power washing of windows, buildings and decks, and fill their recreational vehicles. c. The following criteria will be used to determine consumption from outside water usage. Consumption of grass at the elevation of MWSD's service area is 1.0 acre-foot per irrigated acre, with an application rate of 1.25 acre-feet per irrigated acre. Consumption of flowers and gardens is 0.4 of an acre foot per irrigated acre, with an application rate of 0.5 of an acre foot per irrigated acre. The consumptive use for irrigation operations was determined using the SCS TR-21 modification to the Blaney Criddle consumptive use method with the Pochop elevation adjustment and the Evergreen turf adjustment, as outlined in a report prepared by Blatchley Associates, Inc., which is titled "Turf Irrigation in Mountainous Areas of Evergreen, Colorado." Evaporation losses from hot tubs average 4.46 gallons per day of operation. Evaporation losses from seasonal water features is 3,300 gallons per year. The volume of water used for car washing, the power washing of windows, building and decks and filling recreational vehicles will be assumed to be a constant 0.5 of an acre foot per year, all of which is consumed. d. Depletions attributable to water usage by MWSD will continue to be augmented during the period May through September, inclusive, by leaving the above referenced Guiraud 3T Ditch Water Right in the stream.

During times when the Guiraud 3T Ditch Water Right is not in priority and during the months of October through April, inclusive, depletions will continue to be augmented by releasing water from Spinney Mountain Reservoir, or alternatively the Lower Sacramento Creek Reservoir No. 1. With respect to releases made from Spinney Mountain Reservoir, MMRC and the Division Engineer, or his designated representative, shall provide the City of Aurora, operator of Spinney Mountain Reservoir, with at least 24 hours prior notice during regular working hours, Monday through Friday, of the required time and amount of such releases. e. The maximum volume of depletions associated with water usage by MWSD's customers, including any applicable stream transportation charges computed on the basis of 0.13 percent per mile, will not exceed 10.0 acre feet per year. f. The previously approved exchanges and plan of substitution involving the upstream movement of water on the North Fork of the South Platte River, Elk Creek and Gooseberry Gulch will continue to be operated. Any time that MWSD's augmentation water supplies cannot be delivered to the point of depletion, water will be released from the Kings Valley Reservoir No. 1 located in the SE 1/4 SW 1/4 of Section 28, Township 6 South, Range 71 West, 6th P.M. Due to the small volume of annual stream depletions projected to occur under this augmentation plan, instantaneous stream depletions may be aggregated. An aggregated release from Spinney Mountain Reservoir will be required no more frequently than once per month. The version of an Amended Decree the Court will be asked to approve is attached as an Exhibit. Reference is made to the Amended Decree for a more detailed description of the changes being requested. WHEREFORE, MWSD requests that the existing augmentation plan be amended as set forth herein. (4 pages and 1 exhibit).

C. Location: In Case No. 81CW446, Westminster obtained a decree for an exchange of water between Westminster’s Big Dry Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant and Big Dry Intakes Nos. 1 through 6 (the “1981 BDC Exchange”). A map identifying the general locations of the relevant exchange points for this exchange is attached as Exhibit A. The locations of the structures are as follows: Westminster’s Big Dry Creek Waste Water Treatment Plant: At a point on the north bank of Big Dry Creek 400 feet east of Huron Street in the Northwest 1/4 of the Southwest 1/4 of Section 27, Township 1 South, Range 68 West, County of Adams, State of Colorado.

D. Source: In Case No. 81CW446, Westminster obtained a decree for the 1981 BDC Exchange using effluent generated at the Westminster Big Dry Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant as a substitute supply. The source of water diverted by exchange is Big Dry Creek. The source of effluent used as a substitute supply is from certain water rights diverted by Westminster through its municipal utility system pursuant to the decree entered in Case No. W-8743, Water Court, Water Division No. 1, State of Colorado and from certain nontributary groundwater rights diverted by Westminster through its municipal utility system pursuant to the decree in Cases No. W-4017 and W-8741-77, Water Court, Water Division No. 1, State of Colorado. E. Appropriation Date: September 14, 1981, Case No. 81CW446 in the amount of 20 c.f.s. F. Use: Pursuant to the decree entered in Case No. 81CW446, the water diverted will be used in the City of Westminster’s municipal utility system for municipal, irrigation, domestic, commercial, industrial, recreational, exchange, replacement, and augmentation purposes. Westminster may make direct use, storage, reuse, successive use, further exchange and thereby fully consume the waters diverted and accounted for under operation of the decree in Case No. 81CW446. 4. Detailed outline of what has been done toward completion of the appropriation and application to a beneficial use. A. In Case No. 95CW088, the Water Court decreed that 2.56 c.f.s. of the 20 c.f.s. conditional decree in Case No. 81CW446 for the 1981 BDC Exchange, had been made absolute by completion of the appropriation and application of the water to beneficial use. Most recently, the Water Court in Case No. 08CW273 issued findings of diligence and thereby ruled that the remaining 17.44 c.f.s. of the conditional portion of the 1981 BDC Exchange remains in effect. During the present diligence period, the rate of exchange has not exceeded the 2.56 c.f.s. previously determined absolute by the Court in Case No. 95CW088. B. During the diligence period, Westminster completed a reconstruction project of the pump house located at Big Dry Creek Intake Point 5 that is used to divert water into City Park Pond at a cost of approximately $100,000. Costs were incurred during the diligence period. C. During the diligence period, Westminster has operated and maintained, and in one instance, replaced a

the conditional portion of the 1981 BDC Exchange remains in effect. During the present diligence period, the rate of exchange has not exceeded the 2.56 c.f.s. previously determined absolute by the Court in Case No. 95CW088. B. During the diligence period, Westminster completed a reconstruction project of the pump house located at Big Dry Creek Intake Point 5 that is used to divert water into City Park Pond at a cost of approximately $100,000. Costs were incurred during the diligence period. C. During the diligence period, Westminster has operated and maintained, and in one instance, replaced a pump at the “exchange to” points. Westminster incurred replacement costs of approximately $10,000 associated with replacing a pump at Big Dry Creek Intake Point 3. Costs were incurred during the diligence period. D. During the diligence period, Westminster has, pursuant to the decree in Case No. W-8743, diverted water into the municipal utility system and put such water to beneficial use in Westminster’s water service area. Beneficial use of said water has then generated effluent at Westminster’s Big Dry Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant for exchange pursuant to the decree in Case No. 81CW446. In a prior diligence period, Westminster expanded the capacity of the Big Dry Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant thereby allowing treatment of additional effluent at the Plant. E. Westminster has previously participated in a joint effort with the City of Thornton and the USGS to construct a flow gauge on Big Dry Creek. During the diligence period, Westminster has made annual contributions of approximately $3,000.00 to cover a portion of the operations and maintenance for said gauge. The gauge is used to measure flows in Big Dry Creek and provides a basis for the calculation of exchange potential on Big Dry Creek. Moreover, Westminster staff has participated in the Big Dry Creek Watershed Association, a cooperative effort among all Big Dry Creek water users to monitor flow data, as well as other information. Costs associated with this effort were incurred during the diligence period.

F. During the diligence period, Westminster has participated in a number of water court proceedings in an effort, in part, to protect and maintain return flows to both Big Dry Creek and the South Platte River. In addition, Westminster has participated in a number of water court proceedings in the Clear Creek basin in an effort, in part, to protect and maintain the full entitlement of water available to the water rights decreed in Case No. W-8743, Water Court, Water Division No. 1, State of Colorado. Under the terms of Case No. 81CW446, effluent generated by the use of said water rights in Westminster’s municipal utility system may be used for exchange purposes. G. Consistent with the findings in the decree issued in Case No. 08CW273, the 1981 BDC Exchange water right adjudicated in Case No. 81CW446 is part of Westminster’s Clear Creek raw water supply system, an integrated system as defined by § 37-92-301(4) C.R.S. During the diligence period, Westminster has continued the development of its Clear Creek Water Supply System. Activities have included, but are not limited to, acquisition of various Clear Creek water rights for incorporation into the integrated water supply system, participation in various water court proceedings to protect Westminster’s water supply system, participation in continuing efforts to effect improvements to and the enlargement of Standley Reservoir, and substantial efforts to protect the quality of water of Westminster’s water supply system. Costs related to these activities have been incurred during the diligence period. 5. Water applied to beneficial use: Since diversions by exchange during the current diligence period did not exceed the current absolute flow rate of 2.56 c.f.s. for the 1981 BDC Exchange, Westminster is not claiming additional amounts absolute in this matter. 6.

Name(s) and address(es) of owner(s) or reputed owners of the land upon which any new diversion or storage structure, or modification to any existing diversion or storage structure is or will be constructed or upon which water is or will be stored, including any modification to the existing storage pool: With the exception of Big Dry Creek Intake No. 3, the diversion structures involved in this exchange are all on property owned by the applicant, the City of Westminster.

On information and belief, the existing Big Dry Creek Intake No. 3 is located on lands owned by the State Board of Community Colleges and Occupational Education. Big Dry Creek Intake No. 3 is an existing, not a new, diversion structure and there are no plans to modify said structure at this time. 7. Remarks/Other: Any decree entered in this matter will incorporate by reference the exchange terms and conditions contained in the underlying decree, Case No. 81CW446, including specifically the exchange terms set forth in paragraph 9 of said underlying decree. WHEREFORE, Westminster requests the Court to enter its decree and ruling as follows: A. To make a finding of reasonable diligence with respect to the remaining 17.44 c.f.s. conditionally decreed to the 1981 BDC Exchange, and providing that a subsequent showing of diligence be made six years from the date of entry of a decree of diligence.

Thankfully, there’s more than ever to do on Thanksgiving week My, how time flies. Can you believe that Thanksgiving is right around the corner?

That seems to be the kind of thing we say about every special occasion once AVENUE we start to get older.

FLASHES “Can you believe it’s almost the Fourth of July?” Well, yes, these things come up about the same time every year. The calendar doesn’t speed up, just our perception of time, I guess. Now I understand why people in John Akal their 90’s seem to get so confused. Everything must feel like it just happened yesterday.

But, Thanksgiving is upon us and I do want to mention it here because it kind of gets lost in the Christmas rush. Every family has their Thanksgiving traditions, but as I do every year, I do want to mention that you don’t have to spend the entire day cooking if you don’t want to. Both of our downtown hotels here in Golden

are offering Thanksgiving Day buffets that have so many things on their menus that I couldn’t even begin to list them in the space for this column.

Just go to their websites and check them out, but if you are inclined to go that direction, make a reservation as soon as possible because they both get filled up fast.

Every Thanksgiving I can’t help but think of one of my old friends who is an officer in the New York City Police Department. For years his Thanksgiving tradition means getting up at around 1 a.m., going into the station and donning his uniform, then reporting for the mandatory “all department” crowd control detail and heading out to watch over the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. Once

the parade is over, they have to stick around for several hours to make sure the crowds get out safely and he finally gets to go home to his own family sometime in the late afternoon.

He tells me they always have a pillow and a blanket hand for him, and he crashes out on the couch for a few hours. Then he wakes up and eats the best leftovers in the world, or so he tells it.

This year, take a few minutes to be thankful for all of those people who dedicate their lives to keeping ours safe. While we are all enjoying a great meal, there will be police, fire, medical and military personnel at work so we can have this time with our families.

Give them all a moment of thought and thanks.

Be a tool.

Ok, so you know my thoughts on Black Friday and the after Thanksgiving shopping madness that goes along with it. One thing I’m kind of thankful for is that it’s almost becoming a moot point since loads of stores have been running their Black Friday sales for more than a week now.

One way you can support your local merchants as well as a terrific commu-

nity organization is to participate in the 4th Annual Be A Tool 5K Elf Run. It’s a charity run that helps support the Be A Tool Neighborhood Rehab Project that provide 1,100+ volunteers to help people in our area keep a ward, dry and safe living environment in their homes when they otherwise couldn’t afford to maintain them.

The Run will be happening on Saturday, Nov. 25 and goes through downtown Golden. Some of the things included in your entry fee are a free pancake breakfast, T-shirt, food and drinks, awards and there are even kids activities and you get a Jingle Around Golden Passport.

That enables you to get stamps from local merchants to redeem as an entry for a prize drawing.

You can find all the details about this event and organization as well as the Jingle Around Golden Passport at www.beatool.org.
