Sometimes, it’s hard for me to believe that I’ve been in and around Castle Rock for more than 20 years. First, as a student and later, moving here to live with my wife and family. I’ve seen our Town grow from under 10,000 residents in 1990, to two times that in 2000, and more than double that – 48,000 – in 2010. Now, we’ve reached 50,000 residents.

neighborhoods and development, it certainly doesn’t “feel” like a big community to me. I think that’s because as residents and businesses, we’ve worked hard to maintain the character and small-town charm that make Castle Rock unique. From the quaint shops and restaurants Downtown to communitywide events, Castle Rock has something to interest a variety of people. We’ve planned our roads carefully and certainly have designed trails and parks to enhance our landscapes. We’ve been smart in managing our resources so that we can responsibly plan and build out our community for future generations.

Karen McGrath, Senior Community Relations Specialist

Reaching the 50,000 threshold means more than a Census count. This milestone launches Castle Rock into a new arena – one where we’re considered to be a good location by primary employers. Many restaurants and stores also begin to look at communities that have reached this population marker. It opens doors into new areas for economic development, which we may not have had in years past.

Administrative Assistant Shannon Sweitzer

So, as we take a look back at just how Castle Rock came to be, contemplate, too, just who we might want to become. I hope you’ll agree, we’re on the right track.

to GOOD KNOW Election results online By the time you read this, the 2012 Town Council election will be decided. However, Election Day (April 3) came after press time for this magazine. Two of the four seats that were up for

election this year were decided early, because the candidates were running unopposed. Under the authority of a newly adopted ordinance, Town Council voted to cancel the election in Districts 1 (western half of The Meadows) and 6 (Plum Creek and Crystal Valley Ranch) and return Paul Donahue and Clark Hammelman to their seats.

(This resulted in a savings to taxpayers of about $8,100.)

The election remained up for grabs, however, in Districts 2 (Diamond Ridge, Sapphire Pointe and Metzler Ranch) and 4 (Castle North, Castle Highlands, portions of Red Hawk and Craig & Gould’s Addition).

‘Scraps’ enhance safety The Town is using materials previously thought of as scraps to make more visible the pedestrian crossing and stop signs near most elementary and middle schools in Castle Rock.

Yellow-green and red reflective tape is used when fabricating the signs. Rarely does the tape exactly fit the signs, which left scraps of the material. Employees brainstormed ways to improve safety without spending money. They decided to make reflective not only the signs but also the poles on which they sit, using the scraps. The Town will gather feedback on the new look and may expand the program to other areas.

Ride on Saturdays, holidays Reduced-fare taxi rides for transit-dependent Castle Rock residents now are available on Saturdays and some holidays, in addition to during the week. The Town pays a maximum of $10 per trip, and passengers must pay charges in excess of that amount. Trips must originate and end within Town limits and only are scheduled for work, medical and grocery-shopping purposes. Residents age 18 or older who have no access to a vehicle or who have a disability that prevents them from driving are eligible. (16- and 17-year-olds may qualify for rides to work.) Rides are limited and available first come, first served.

Program participants must register by downloading an application at CRgov.com/transit or by calling 720-295-TRIP (8747) to request that one be mailed to them.

Breaking new ground Throughout this winter, residents have been experiencing outdoor icing problems. These problems occur when melted snow flows into gutters enters shaded areas, where it promptly freezes. The Town’s No. 1 winter road priority is providing safe mobility on high-volume streets for emergency response vehicles and other traffic. Once plowing needs are addressed, our focus shifts to ice management, as needed. Ice control is prioritized, with emphasis placed on high-pedestrian areas, such as near schools. We recently acquired a new piece of equipment that makes ice removal quicker and more efficient.

Report snow and ice concerns to 720-733-2462 or roads@CRgov.com.

Commitment i n Downtown

If you’ve been to Downtown Castle Rock lately, you’ve likely noticed some changes: flower planters lining the streets, midblock crosswalks and lights sparkling overhead, to name a few.

Those all are thanks to the Downtown Development Authority, formed in November 2008 after Downtown business and property owners voted in favor of its creation. DDAs can finance many public improvements, the most noticeable which may be yet to come.

The DDA in February formally launched the Colorado Wedding District in Downtown Castle Rock.

Two gown stores, Wedding Treasures on Wilcox Street and Blue Bridal Boutique on Perry Street, serve as the district’s anchors.

Blue Br ida l

Other wedding-industry shops and service providers – florists, bakers, caterers, salons/spas, photographers, musicians and more – can be found on virtually every block Downtown, providing the state’s first walkable wedding district.

ique ut bo

It is hoped that more one-of-a-kind wedding-related businesses will open Downtown, bringing in regional shoppers and bolstering the other businesses that out-of-town shoppers visit, such as restaurants and coffee shops.

Not to mention that gown stores typically generate high sales, which translates to sales tax dollars that help the Town provide high-quality services. The wedding industry is relatively stable – even in slower economic times – and wedding districts in places like Reading, Ohio, and Covington, Ky., have been successful over many years.

No other wedding district exists in Colorado, so Castle Rock has a unique opportunity to enter this niche market. There also are many scenic wedding venues in the surrounding area.

“We want the Colorado Wedding District to provide that once-in-a-lifetime experience for couples planning their weddings,” said Judy Woodley, vice president of the Castle Rock Economic Development Council, which serves as staff for the DDA. “Shoppers will experience impeccable service in a charming and scenic setting. It’s a win-win for the businesses and the brides.”

While the Wedding District is a major focus of the DDA, it isn’t its only project. The DDA also is working to help Downtown property owners revamp building facades, add temporary patios for warm months and more. Visit downtowncastlerock.com for the latest news from the DDA.

Coming soon to a park near you PHILIP S. MILLER PARK

Imagine the possibilities of a 225-acre park that has 3.5 million people within a 30-minute drive.

That’s what the Town is doing as it drafts the master plan for the upcoming Philip S. Miller Park, along Plum Creek Parkway south of The Meadows.

Design of the park has kicked off in earnest. Potential activities there include unique amenities like cultural arts venues or an outdoor adventure park, in addition to traditional play and athletic features.

“This is a fundamentally different park than what we have done in the past few years,” said Town Parks Planning Superintendent Jeff Smullen.

Instead of a neighborhood focus, the park will be built with the intent of being a regional draw.

It will be constructed in multiple phases over many years, with the first phase planned to kick off in 2013.

Opportunities for public comment will occur as construction nears. Initial concepts for the park, along with other information, are available online at CRgov.com/PSMPark.

A park’s opening The 9-acre Wrangler Park, adjacent to Sage Canyon Elementary School in the Castle Oaks/Terrain subdivision, is set to open the afternoon of April 27.

WRANGLER PARK

The park will have playgrounds, a tennis court, walking trails, picnic pavilions, a synthetic turf practice field and landscaping designed to blend into the surrounding terrain.

Sage Canyon students will plant trees at the park the morning of April 27 in celebration of Arbor Day, and a grand opening will be held starting 3:15 that afternoon. Sage Canyon’s mascot is the Wranglers, and park amenities will be themed to go with that name.

A pool’s opening The reconstructed and expanded Burgess Pool, 22 N. Gilbert St., is expected to reopen May 25.

BURGESS POOL

The renovated pool will have zero-depth entry, sprayers, a toddler slide, a current channel, underwater seating, a 20-foot slide and nearly double its former capacity.

Its deck also will have much more shade, and its bathhouse is being remodeled to include new locker rooms as well as a multipurpose/birthday party room.

No more driving north for noodles or baked goods – the Shoppes on Founders are opening one by one, to the delight of many Town residents.

Perhaps the most anticipated of the six new businesses coming to the development are the three new-to-Castle Rock quick-casual restaurants: Five Guys Burgers and Fries, Noodles & Co. and Panera Bread. But they are only the half of what is slated there.

Also open – or close to it – at the Shoppes, 38 E. Allen St., are Castle Rock Modern Dentistry, Complete Nutrition, My Kid’s Dentist/Pacific Dental and Smart Cow Yogurt Bar. There is room on the site to construct one more building. No tenant has signed onto the property, however, so construction has not yet begun.

The businesses will be a boost to Castle Rock’s economy, generating sales tax and helping to fulfill the community’s vision of having a diversity of services.

recycle?

Where can you

The Town receives many inquiries regarding trash pickup and recycling.

Many of those who we come in contact with regarding those services are surprised to find out they are not provided by the Town, but typically through homeowners associations. (Those who do not live within an HOA usually contract independently with a waste-removal provider.)

Town leadership and staff strive to keep our community as sustainable and green as possible, in accordance with our value of practicing responsible are for our resources, assets and environment.

Toward that end, we have formed an internal “green team� and helped launch a community-based environmental group as well.

Free recycling drop-off site Recently, the Castle Rock Community Green Team teamed up with the Douglas County School District to start a free recycling drop-off site.

The Community Recycling Center, 701 Prairie Hawk Drive, is open 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays.

Douglas County residents and business owners may recycle newspapers, cardboard, glass, plastic, tin and aluminum items there.

Learn more about the Community Green Team at greenteamatcastlerock.com.

Town staff strives to be green in several areas, including air quality, development and building, energy and water conservation and electronics recycling. Learn more about these efforts at CRgov.com/projectgreen.

We also include a green tip in the Your Town Talk newsletter that is sent to residents monthly in their water bills.

Finally, we make available on our website (CRgov.com/recycle) the Douglas County Recycle/Reuse Resource Guide, which offers 12 pages of recycling-related information.

We hope that this information helps to clarify the roles many in the community play in sustainability and helps make it a bit easier to be green.

Town reaches 50,000-resident milestone

Castle Rock’s population has topped the 50,000 mark, according to Town staff estimates.

This is a significant milestone in the growth and evolution of the community, Town Manager Mark Stevens said in a memo to Town Council.

The estimated population of 50,028 as of the end of January makes Castle Rock the 17th-largest incorporated municipality in the state, and the largest municipality to call itself a Town. Our designation as a Town is established in the Town Charter, and there is no meaningful legal distinction between a town and city.

Castle Rock incorporated in 1881, with 88 residents. At the 1990 Census, the Town had 8,708 residents. Significant population growth has occurred since then, with the population reaching 20,224 at the 2000 Census and 48,231 at the 2010 Census.

The Town’s latest population estimate is not an official designation by any regional, state or federal agency. Town estimates have proven fairly accurate, however, and were only off by 700 residents at the 2010 Census.

The Town estimates that our buildout eventually will occur at about 100,000 residents, meaning that we are at the midpoint on our journey to becoming that community, Stevens said.

Not only is the milestone historically significant, but it also means that the Town may have enhanced economic development opportunities, as some companies only consider communities with 50,000 or more residents acceptable locations for business development.

North

Meadows E X T E N S I O N

A 2-mile span. A 20-story difference between the high and low points. Five bridges.

Two railroad crossings. A creek traverse. Potential encounters with an endangered species.

Two federally controlled interchanges.

No, this doesn’t describe a new extreme endurance reality TV show. These are details of the Town’s next – and largest ever – road project, the North Meadows Extension.

The project has been on the books since the mid-1980s and has been worked on in earnest since voters approved the Transportation Action Plan bond issue in 2005.

The other two TAP projects – now part of Plum Creek Parkway – were completed in 2009.

The North Meadows Extension is more complex, and will be much more costly, than those other projects. It will involve building a new road from the current end of North Meadows Drive (near Castle View High School) to U.S. Highway 85 and Interstate 25.

The new interchange on U.S. 85 will be at Castlegate Drive, and the new I-25 interchange about 1 mile north of the Founders/Meadows Parkway interchange. Initially, the interchange at U.S. 85 will include only the north ramps – a southbound off-ramp and northbound on-ramp. The south ramps will be constructed in the future.

The project is needed to provide a second northern access for The Meadows; to relieve traffic congestion along Founders/Meadows Parkway at the U.S. 85 and I-25 intersections; and to improve the operations and safety of I-25, the ramps of which are over capacity and become backed up.

The estimated cost to build the initial two lanes of the roadway – including the cost of the land needed (known as right of way) – is about $50 million. $20 million in TAP bonds will be issued. The remainder will be funded through Town’s Transportation Fund and through contributions from Douglas County and the Colorado Department of Transportation.

The bulk of this year will be spent finalizing the road’s design and acquiring right of way.

Construction is expected to begin next year and be completed by 2015. An additional two lanes will be added in the future, when traffic conditions warrant. That phase is expected to cost about $10 million and will be funded in part by Castle Rock Development Co., The Meadows’ developer.

Making strides toward securing water

Securing water for our Town’s future is a top priority – not only for your Town government, but also for fellow residents, as evidenced by their responses to Town’s 2011 community survey.

The Town has taken several steps in recent years to secure every drop of water it can, including emphasizing conservation, purchasing storage space in Rueter-Hess Reservoir near Parker and constructing a local water purification facility to use water rights we own in East Plum Creek. (See more on the latter two in the sidebar.)

The largest effort the Town is undertaking as part of the Legacy Water Projects – as the programs that will help get the Town to its goal of 75 percent renewable water by buildout have been named – is the alternative source of water supply provider RFP process.

The Town’s water currently comes from wells as deep as 2,000 feet – a finite source.

In order to ensure that the Town has a long-term, sustainable water supply, the Town in June 2011 issued a request for proposals to meet the Town’s future water-supply needs. Seven groups responded, and the Town’s team had narrowed that field to four remaining proposals

by September.

Since then, Town staff and third-party experts – water attorneys, engineers and financial analysts – have been evaluating those proposals.

Reviews of the proposals’ water rights and delivery viability have been completed. A cost analysis was nearing completion as of press time for this magazine. Costs were being analyzed in three ways: 1) the projects’ full cost at buildout; 2) the cost of delivering one-third of the water needed at buildout; and 3) the cost of providing a lesser amount of water, which would enable the use of renewable water in the near future and keep cost impacts to the public at a minimum.

A comparative analysis of the four options is expected to be presented to Town Council in late April or early May. Public input then is proposed to be taken by Town Council in May and June before a final report is made to Town Council in June.

Details regarding upcoming presentations and public comment opportunities will be posted at CRgov.com/waterRFP.

Rueter-Hess Reservoir The Town purchased 8,000 acre feet of storage in Rueter-Hess Reservoir.

That is enough space to hold all of the water used by 18,000 families in a year.

More financial resources are needed to purchase water to fill the space and then to build the infrastructure to move the water from the reservoir, near Parker, to Castle Rock. We are working with adjacent communities to share in the costs of the infrastructure.

The reservoir is completed and is being filled with water when it is available.

Plum Creek Water Purification Facility This facility, under construction in central Castle Rock, is a key component of the Town’s renewable water strategy. It will help Castle Rock Water capture and treat water to which it currently has the rights. When the facility begins operation next year, the Town will transition from a nonrenewable water supply to 35 percent renewable water. The facility’s initial treatment capacity will be 4 million gallons per day. All Castle Rock residents combined typically use 3.5 million gallons per day during winter and about 16 million at peak in summer.

Castle Rock Water has come a long way.

Photos from 1942 (left page) show wood pipes. Today, we have a state-ofthe-art system with 52 wells,16 storage tanks and four water treatment plants.

We’re also working to secure water for our future by building a new treatment plant (shown here) and working toward regional connections.

Chief

Castle Rock Police

Jack Cauley is the Town’s dedicated, new police chief.

He comes to Castle Rock from the Midwest, where he most recently was deputy chief of the Overland Park (Kan.) Police Department.

He and his wife, Deanna, made Castle Rock their new home right about the time of his Jan. 3 swearing in. Deanna already had been living in the Denver area for about a year, working at Red Robin’s corporate office.

While Chief Cauley is new to Castle Rock, his law enforcement career goes back to 1984, when he began work as a dispatcher with the Lenexa (Kan.) Police Department.

In 1986, he joined the Overland Park department. He moved up through the ranks there, becoming a sergeant (1991), lieutenant (1996), captain (2001) and major (2002) in areas including patrol, investigations, administration and traffic. He also gained experience in tactical teams and emergency management along the way. He ultimately was promoted to deputy chief in 2007.

Cauley said that the “stars aligned” when Castle Rock’s former 24-year police chief, Tony Lane, announced his retirement in fall 2011, opening up the position Cauley now holds.

Cauley’s experience, abilities, attitude and knowledge – enhanced by a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice administration from Central Missouri State University and a master’s degree in public administration from the University of Kansas – made him an ideal fit for the job, said Town Manager Mark Stevens.

Said Cauley: “I am humbled and honored to have been appointed. I look forward to building on (Chief Lane’s) success, with a focus on people, innovation and community.”

Castle Rock ranks among top five in emergency cardiac care Castle Rock Fire and Rescue, as part of the Emergency Medical Services team for Sky Ridge Medical Center, recently was reviewed by the Society of Chest Pain Centers as part of its accreditation process. With more than 650 accreditation programs having been reviewed, the Castle Rock program ranked among the top five in the country.

It’s a statistic not too many care about – until they’re on the receiving end.

“It doesn’t get much better than that,” said Fire Chief Art Morales. “We work hard to maintain this level of expertise, and we know we have skilled crews responding to these critical scenes. It’s nice, though, when a national organization recognizes your work.”

The Society of Chest Pain Centers reviewed Sky Ridge Medical Center for Chest Pain Accreditation. Emergency Medical Services is the largest portion of the review. The society looks at all aspects of care for the cardiac patient, including community education, outreach, dispatch services, EMS care and hospital care.

Castle Rock has 62 firefighters who are trained as paramedics or emergency medical technicians. Ninety percent of the time, it takes them 8 minutes or less to reach a patient from the time a 911 call is made.

In addition to emergency response, the department provides public outreach on use of defibrillators and provides CPR training classes for individuals and groups.

“Our teams working together have made a tremendous impact to the communities we serve,” said Sky Ridge Medical Center Medical Director Stephen Heinz.

“And, we are proud to be your partner.”

The Town’s vision is to be a world-class community with a small-town character. We already have at least one amenity that fulfills that vision in Red Hawk Ridge Golf Course.

Renowned golf course architect Jim Engh – who has designed world-famous courses in faraway places including China, France, Ireland and Thailand – laid out the spectacular course on the scenic hills overlooking the Town and the Front Range.

The Town has taken great care of the course since it opened in 1999. While many municipalities have cut golf course maintenance costs during the economic downturn, we have remained steadfast in manicuring our bent grass greens, ensuring our fairways stay lush and keeping our carts, practice facilities and clubhouse in excellent condition.

While our facilities are comparable to a country club, they also have a hometown feel to them – with popular men’s and ladies’ clubs, youth programs, and even happy hours at the Clubhouse Grill.

We believe our mountain-style course and professionally trained staff are first-rate – as do our customers, who rated our service and golf course “excellent” in a recent survey. This exceptional experience is offered at a good value, especially for our residents, who receive discounted rates.

And, those residents who do not golf at Red Hawk Ridge do not foot the bill for those who do. The course operates on a self-sustaining enterprise fund, meaning golf-related revenues fund course operations. Of course, we would like all of our residents who are golfers to experience the course.

We invite you to get you know your hometown golf course.

Bison Park

Hammar House

Six projects honored with Town’s 2011 Design Awards program honored six projects whose outstanding design meets the Town’s Vision 2020.

Design Awards

The vision identifies four cornerstones for the community. The first is Town Identity, with the intent to “preserve Castle Rock’s character as a distinct and physically separate community that is the center of Douglas County.”

It was with that cornerstone in mind that the Design Awards program was created.

This year marks the third for the program. These honorees received recognition:

Business or Commercial Building – Castle Rock Adventist Health Campus – Phase I, 2350 Meadows Blvd. The awards team cited the building’s “unique and powerful” architecture, along with its respect of the Town’s history, heritage and design guidelines.

Environmental/Site Features – Bison Park, 1390 Clear Sky Way. The park’s design respected water conservation practices and the natural topography and aesthetic values of the area, the team said. Two bison play sculptures help make the park unique and enjoyable.

Historic Preservation – Hammar House, 203 Cantril St. Owner Lionel Oberlin was recognized for preserving the home – one of the first in Castle Rock built of rhyolite. The project “provides an outstanding example of renovation consistent with the original design, character and scale of a significant historical home,” the awards team said.

Public Facility/Community Project – Fire Station 151, 300 N. Perry St. The building helps residents feel comfortable and confident in Town fire safety programs, the team said. “Construction of the fire station on an old parking lot in the downtown core was critical to restoring the health and vitality of that area and set an example for the architecture that has been duplicated within the surrounding blocks.”

Remodel (Commercial or Residential) – Home at 404 N. Gilbert St. Old and new construction techniques were used to expand and enhance the home, originally constructed in 1949. The house provides a unique and pleasing face to Gilbert Street, the team said.

Sense of Place/Community Character – Downtown projects (façade grant program, ADA ramps, crosswalks, overhead lighting, banners, flowerboxes).

The Downtown Development Authority completed the improvements, which were critical to restoring Downtown’s health and vitality, in coordination with Town staff. The improvements also enhance Downtown’s social aspects and attract visitors, the awards team said.

The Town Planning Commission, Castle Rock Economic Development Council, Town Historic Preservation Board, Downtown Development Authority and residents submitted more than 30 nominations for this year’s Design Awards. Learn more about current and past honorees at
