Letter to the Editor Simple ways to help alleviate climate change

To the editor and the community: As you may know, many human activities have caused an increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, causing the climate to shift.

Between fossil fuel emissions in the atmosphere, deforestation and agricultural activities, the problem is only getting worse.

It’s been reported that big corporations are the

cause of about 70 percent of these emissions.

However, it’s not too late to take steps toward fixing this problem and help increase that 30 percent.

We can all do our part in reducing greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere. Luckily, many solutions are easy to implement in your everyday life. For example: limiting air conditioning and heating use to times when it’s necessary.

Another solution is to drive less. Although this isn’t ideal for everyone, a good alternative is to carpool or use public transportation.

A more long-term solution is to start using more energy-efficient devices.

Planting trees to help replace the ones that are being cut down also helps the environment by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.

So the next time you turn up your AC or throw a plastic bottle in the trash, I hope you remember this letter and decide to do your part to help fix climate change.

Sincerely, Petra Figueroa

MACH grant applications for 2023 being accepted The Manitou Arts, Culture, and Heritage Board is accepting grant applications for 2023.

Applicants should submit their funding requests by Jan. 6, after which the board will evaluate submissions, learn the exact amount of available funding from 2022 MACH tax revenues and make grant recommendations in late February for Manitou Springs City Council approval.

As set up in the MACH tax initiative approved in 2019, 66 percent of grant funds will go to designated Tier 1 entities: Carnegie Library, Hiawatha Gardens, Manitou Art Center, Manitou Springs Heritage Center and the Miramont Castle Museum.

The other 34 percent goes to Tier 2 competi-

tive grants, available to residents, nonprofits, businesses and others to assist in programs and events that benefit Manitou.

Last year, MACH funds produced about $475,000 in grants — with $324,043 going to the Tier 1 recipients and about $150,000 for Tier 2 grants. Early estimates suggest the amount for 2023 grants will decrease slightly.

Grant applicants can access the online application form at bit.ly/MACHGrants or go to the MACH page on the city website, www.tinyurl. com/MACHBoard, and click on the “MACH Application Forms” link. Applications for more than $750 must also include a budget of projected

revenues and expenses.

Applicants for mini-grants ($750 or less) will complete a simpler form that does not require a detailed budget.

Any individuals or nonprofits who received MACH grants last year must turn in 2022 project completion reports before being considered for 2023 grants.

HELP WANTED

The MACH Board has vacancies for two alternates. Applicants must be Manitou residents, ideally with some awareness of the MACH tax initiative. If interested, email MACHBoard@ manitouspringsco.gov.

POLICE BEAT

By Jack Elder

City Finance Director Mike Leslie reported to City Council at Tuesday’s work session that there was approximately $32,000 available for implementing changes in the zoning code and related public processes for 2005.

The recommendations submitted by consultant HB&A were itemized and came with the cost of each item included. HB&A will be contracted to perform the work of revising the code and establishing revised processes so the recommendations also served as a de facto bid on each item even though the firm’s involvement to date eliminates the requirement for a new bidding process.

The 12 items on the HB&A list total nearly $91,000.

HB&A also indicated several, mostly procedural changes, that can contribute to a more efficient and less contentious process that can be implemented in-house at no cost.

Operating within the $32,000 available this year, council identified the creation of approval criteria for each zoning category, including downtown, projected to cost $20,000; revising and updating the public process, projected to cost $9,100; reevaluating the setback requirements in the general residential zone, which consumes as much as one-third of planning staff’s time, projected to cost $5,000 and adopting and implementing the National Fire Prevention Association’s standard 299 at a projected cost of $3,600.

The NFPA standard would provide clear-cut guidelines, especially for construction on upslopes, where none exist now and thereby eliminate considerable negotiation,

reports, hearings and general misunderstanding and arguments.

Representatives of HB&A, City Council and members of city staff will now meet to finalize costs.

At press time, it was not anticipated that further formalize action would be necessary to start the zoning and planning revision process as outlined Tuesday.

Where is it

?

Can you guess what the picture is?

Happy Cats Haven – Pet of the Week Hi, I’m Miss Dotty, a beautiful short-haired gal with golden eyes who is ready to find my furever home. I watched my people pack up their house and leave me behind in the winter cold with my sister and kittens; I was devastated! I’m done with the outdoor life and I’ll show you how much I appreciate being in a warm comfortable house by curling up in your lap! At a little more than a year old, I’m as playful as a kitten, so bring out the toys! I can be adopted for just $80, which includes my spay, vaccinations, microchip, food and litter starter kit and a free well-kitty checkup. Are you ready to open your home to me furever?!

If so, email your answer to editor@pikespeakbulletin.com Answers will be due Tuesday, Jan. 3.

Humane Society – Pet of the Week

Lisette and Mike Casey identified it as a Santa Claus sign outside Ruxton’s Trading Post, 22 Ruxton Ave.

Hi there! I’m Lady Sprinkles and I’m ready to find my new home! I’m a 2-year-old black and brown hound dog mix that came into HSPPR as stray. I’m shy at first and can be a little slow to open up to new people. My friends at HSPPR say that I’m a wallflower, but I’m still a good girl. I enjoy putting a leash on and going for walks outside where my nose can sniff freely. My adoption is $250 and I come with a voucher for a veterinary exam, vaccinations, 30 days of pet health insurance and a microchip, and I am already neutered. Just ask for Lady Sprinkles (1617122).
