Aurora lawmakers smoke their credibility trying to fry panhandling on the streets

Few things for so many generations have generated as much mythology as the plight of people without homes.

Our notions of the homeless are a collage of images painted by the Bible, Charlie Chaplin’s Tramp, Red Skelton’s Freddie the Freeloader and The Aurora City Council.

The dilemma of homelessness and its mischaracterization has been around as long as Aurora and Denver.

Homeless people have long been dismissed by community leaders as tiresome vagrants. They attract so much attention now only because so many people, including city lawmakers, actually see so many homeless people.

Thousands of people camping on Front Range streets and highways, panhandling at busy intersections, can’t be ignored even by those who try.

A little over a year ago, Mayor Mike Coffman infamously pretended to be a homeless veteran, mingling with real homeless people, and dubiously not saying who he really was or what he was actually doing.

In a — literally — made-for-TV moment, he told a Channel 4 reporter, who was in on the ruse, that homeless people are mostly drug addicts and alcoholics. He said they choose their miserable lives of addiction on the streets.

For Coffman, and so many like him, homelessness is a problem created by a lack of willpower, sloth and bad choices.

Since then, Aurora lawmakers have been in a tug-ofwar over the complex reality of homelessness and creating “solutions” based on wishes, mythology and the same bad ideas by hundreds of decision makers that have come before them.

A slim majority of the city council, backing Coffman’s off-with-their-tents scheme, have now begun celebrating Aurora shuffling homeless campers around the city, as workers evict homeless people from their visible, illicit campsites.

Local experts and activists who work with hundreds of campers in the region have confirmed that in almost every case of a swept camp, the campers simply find a new place nearby to pitch their tents.

It’s turning out just as city and regional experts warned that it would. It’s the same way in Denver and every other city that tries to ban homeless campers as a way to end homeless camping.

With so much success, the council conservatives who brought you whack-a-camper are now eager to tackle intersection panhandlers.

Here, the city is up against a long history of court decisions making it clear: Don’t go there. Despite urgent tries, in many court decisions, panhandling is designated as a form of protected free speech.

Instead of tempting the fates and a big lawsuit, some conservatives on city council want to spend about $30,000 to erect signs at intersections. The signs would ask people to refrain from donating to panhandlers, and give to homeless organizations instead.

It’s a nice thought.

Once again, however, mythology, misinformation and naive dreaming are about to drive yet another waste of tax dollars.

A big part of the Coffman myth is that homelessness in the region is what you see along roads and vacant lots. Tragically, it’s far more and far worse than that.

Thousands of homeless people in the region don’t live where you can easily see them. They live discreetly in cars, on the couches or floors of friends and family, or even at their work.

The dejected campers passed out in vacant lots along Havana Street, or the haggard guy hanging around the gas station on Colfax? They’re just a part of the problem.

But it’s these homeless people that give rise to the myth that the homeless people you see, and especially the ones you see panhandling at intersections and off-ramps, are

all drug addicts and alcoholics who immediately trade your dollars into fentanyl tablets or a bottle of Cabin Still.

Mile High Behavioral Healthcare CEO Bob Dorshimer, has for years worked with people facing addiction, mental illness and many without homes. He now runs programs in Aurora and the metro area focusing on helping them get sober and in a home.

Dorshimer says it’s absolutely true that some panhandlers are working hard every day to feed their addiction and manage to do little else.

But it’s far more complicated than that.

Dorshimer says years of working with homeless people has led him to sort them, primarily, into three categories of panhandlers: Savvy grifters, desperate, chronically homeless people, and nomadic people moving across the country on a lark.

The lost and clearly incapacitated guy regularly at your usual McDonalds or the strip mall liquor store looking for a handout?

“They’re in survival mode,” Dorshimer said. Slipping that guy a couple of bucks gets him just what you think it does; a Happy Meal or a tall boy Dorshimer said.

“These people don’t have the ability or sophistication to panhandle on the streets and busy intersections,” he said.

The grifters do. These are the people you most often see holding signs at busy intersections, along parkways and on highway entrance and exit ramps.

“They can be ruthless,” Dorshimer said. “It’s not friendly.”

In Aurora and the metro area, they’ve become increasingly territorial, protecting their stake on valuable real estate, with violence if they have to.

They can make real money putting in a day’s work at a lucrative intersection or exit ramp, Dorshimer and local outreach workers say.

“You can make a killing on the Havana corridor,” Dorshimer said, up to $250 a day at the right spot.

That kind of money has drawn often, but not always, scammers and grifters to the cause, creating an entirely new class of gangs.

Some of these people essentially can run drug or prostitution operations, leveraging their take from your donations into an underground underworld.

“If you see a woman panhandling on the street and a guy sitting back away from her, it’s often because she isn’t making enough money turning tricks and her pimp makes her beg to make up the difference.”

Some panhandlers are as legit as is possible, however, just not able to make ends meet with a low-paying job. A few hours with a sign can make up the difference.

He says that’s becoming rare because the “pros” chase them off of the best corners.

The group of panhandlers Dorshimer says has become even more rare these days are the younger people traveling across the country, following bands or some holy grail. They illegally camp and beg along the way. They, too, are

relatively harmless. When the pandemic moved in, these people mostly moved on, he said.

So your donation is spent on a variety of different things depending on whom you hand it to.

Very little science has been done to find out the answer. It doesn’t, however, prevent people like Coffman or other conservatives on city council from claiming that donors only fuel and perpetuate drug addiction.

Some recent research, however, shows that the conservative trope — about homeless people with their hands out being untrustworthy to do the “right” thing with your generosity — isn’t true.

An extensive University of British Columbia study, led by Ryan Dwyer, Anita Palepu, Claire Williams, and Jiaying Zhao, in Vancouver would likely surprise Coffman and others like him.

The 2021 research project selected 50 homeless participants and a control group from that city’s extensive homeless population. Those selected were screened to ensure they did not have addiction or mental illness problems that were so debilitating that it impaired their ability to function at a basic level. The study did not preclude drug and alcohol users, however, or those struggling with emotional issues.

Each participant was given about $6,000 in a lump sum. Get ready for a surprise.

“Over one year, cash recipients spent fewer days homeless, increased savings and spending with no increase in temptation goods spending, and generated societal net savings of $777 (Canadian dollars) per recipient via reduced time in shelters,” according to the study’s authors.

“This experiment presents first evidence that a onetime, unconditional cash transfer of $7,500 (Canadian) has the potential to be an effective tool to reduce homelessness, increase housing stability, savings, and spending, and generate net savings for society via reduced social service use.”

It turns out, that if you give many homeless people money, they spend it on food, necessities and trying to find a permanent home.

“But there was an equally important result of the study,” said study author, Jiaying Zhao, PhD.

The study also focused on the public perception distrusting homeless people’s ability to handle money responsibly.

The study revealed that the vast majority of the general public predicted that if you gave homeless people this kind of cash, they would blow it on drugs, alcohol and other “temptation goods.”

It’s a myth.

Not only did participants use the money to permanently improve their situation, but they didn’t really need nor want much help in turning things around, Zhao said.

“Coaching didn’t really help,” she said. “They knew exactly what they wanted to do.”

They wanted off the streets, and a way to stay off.

The problem with science is that it sometimes flies in the face of our deep-seated lore. The problem with not recognizing that as a community decision maker, is that you’re prone to repeat bad decisions based on what you think is true, maybe wish was true, but simply isn’t.

The biggest takeaway from all of this, and what few other reputable studies have been completed, is that the problem of homelessness is incredibly complex and widespread.

It’s undeniable, however, that homeless camping bans and panhandling laws don’t end homeless camping or panhandling, no matter how much some wish that were the case.

Putting up signs on intersections is almost certain to be a waste of money that could go toward reducing rent for numerous people without homes, people who would jump at the chance to get off the streets for good.

But before Aurora can get its city council to create projects that actually work, it has to persuade them to turn away from the myths and legends that work against actually solving the problem.

Kudos to Priola for putting country before party, exposing GOP’s tragedy

In a world where so many people don’t like being told what to do — and they have to be shown — state Sen. Kevin Priola this week illustrated the lethal problem facing Republicans they can’t overcome: its leaders.

Priola represents northern Aurora and the region north of there. He stunned the state on Monday by announcing he was defecting from the Colorado Republican Party.

His exodus comes after 32 years of party allegiance and serving 13 years under the GOP standard in the state House and Senate.

For the sake of the state and the nation, his fellow Republicans should use this political temblor to re-evaluate their party. Republicans must rethink their steady, indisputable march toward becoming a personality cult, oblivious to the critical danger their party-backed lies, disinformation and delusions present to all of us.

Priola was spot on in observing that there is just “too much at stake right now for Republicans to be in charge.”

He was talking about Republicans like Congressperson Lauren Boebert, state Sen. Ron Hanks, disgraced Secretary of State candidate Tina Peters and gubernatorial candidate Heidi Ganahl. These people have consistently outright supported GOP extremists, election lies and distortions. Or, like Ganahl, they’ve coyly sidestepped their duty to vociferously call them out for what they are: corruption.

This once honorable party of less government and laissez-faire leadership has become a vessel for cruel and mindless extremists, needlessly cowering in fear of minorities attaining long overdue equity in the workplace, in communities and in government.

The party of past Colorado Republican icons like Tony Grampsas, John Love, Donetta Davidson, Al Meiklejohn, Norma Anderson and, recently, Cole Wist would not or do not permit their peers to shamelessly lie or stand silent about fraudulent election claims, or ignore the threat of climate change because of the peril they pose to our nation and democracy.

The warnings about Trump’s Big Lie about a “stolen election,” and those who perpetuate it — or stand silently as their fellow Republicans undermine election integrity — are not hyperbole.

The gravity of allowing lost or leering Republicans to perpetuate or look away from this duplicity cannot be overstated, especially as the mid-term election nears.

Priola made that clear.

“I cannot continue to be a part of a political party that is OK with a violent attempt to overturn a free and fair election and continues to peddle claims that the 2020 election was stolen,” Priola wrote.

Every Republican leader, voter and member should take up that mantle, drive this cancer from the party’s ranks and reclaim the GOP’s legitimacy and vital place at the political table.

It’s time for Republicans like Priola — and thousands like him standing in the shadows as the true silent majority — to step forward and push back against leaders embracing repugnant far-right extremism and not the views of a state that was founded on the principles of fairness, freedom, equity, collegiality and community — by Republicans.

Priola, who has made a political career of pressing against business regulations and for imposing strict anti-abortion laws, is no more a Democrat in Colorado than he is a member of the current Republican Party.

He’s a hero, however, in making clear he’s a leader willing to put his state and his country before his political party, especially when it really matters.

Priola is a hero for subjecting himself to cruel taunts, dangerous threats and mindless ridicule by those who just 24 hours ago claimed him as a friend and colleague, because of his principles.

Republicans like Priola must press for new leaders from among the ranks who will base their party’s platform on science, reality, honesty and the understanding that without a workable democracy, we will become a failed authoritarian state, where everybody loses.

Top lawyers agree: Trump is a leper

I’ve had some good yuks lately – starting with quack doc Mehlmet Oz screwing up his Man of the People Act in the “Wegner’s” supermarket, and lightweight Jared Kushner getting reviewed for his new book: “Kushner looks like a mannequin, and he writes like one…Kushner’s fealty to Trump remains absolute. Reading this book reminded me of watching a cat lick a dog’s eye goo.”

But for sheer legs-in-the-air hilarity, I nominate this new Washington Post report:

“Donald Trump and close aides have spent the eight days since the FBI searched his Florida home rushing to assemble a team of respected defense lawyers. But the answer they keep hearing is ‘no.’… The former president’s current legal team includes a Florida insurance lawyer who’s never had a federal case, a past general counsel for a parking-garage company and a former host at far-right One America News.”

It’s the August dog days, we’re all on vacation or wish we were, so I promise not to tax your sunsplashed cognitive faculties: Care to guess why Trump on the cusp of indictment is having trouble hiring crackerjack criminal lawyers, only duh best lawyers?

To answer that, it helps to remember that in the last five years, Trump has cycled through lawyers as if they were Kleenex. In fairness, it’s hard to represent a client who sues without a scintilla of evidence (his “stolen election” won-lost record was 1-61);

Five of Trump’s lawyers resigned in tandem on the eve of the second impeachment trial, and one of his former lawyers (Michael Cohen) went to prison. Two others (Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Ellis) have been sucked into the Georgia grand jury’s probe of Trump’s coup bid, and another ex-Trump lawyer (Emmet Flood) is now defending a key member of the Mike Pence team.

Ty Cobb, another ex-Trump lawyer, recently had this to say: “(Trump) is a disaster for the Republican party…The Big Lie, and the related violence, election interference and other perceived misconduct, was and is an affront to this nation and its first principles. It has permanently soiled the history pages and deepened the abyss that divides our country.”

In short, as veteran Philadelphia criminal defense lawyer David Rudovsky told me back in 2018, “We’re talking about the client from hell.”

That jibes with John Dowd’s assessment. He was

the top Trump lawyer during the Robert Mueller probe, but quit in March of 2018 because (according to Bob Woodward) he had concluded that Trump was “a f–king liar.” That also jibes with Mark Corallo’s assessment. He was the spokesman for Trump’s legal team, but quit in 2017 because, in the reported words of a close friend, he could no longer tolerate his job “on a moral and professional level.”

Three key characteristics of this client from hell: He doesn’t listen to professional advice (one former lawyer advised Trump to stay off Twitter, whereupon Trump tweeted anew before the lawyer was back in his car), he wants his lawyers to amplify his whopping lies (Rule 3.1 of the American Bar Association’s Rules of Professional Conduct stipulates that lawyers shall not bring an action that has no grounding in law or fact); and (last but surely not least), and he often doesn’t pay them.

Trump himself has reportedly whined about his representation. According to Bob Woodward’s 2018 book “Fear,” he ranted in the White House: “I’ve got a bunch of lawyers who are not aggressive, who are weak, who don’t have my best interests in mind, who aren’t loyal. It’s just a disaster. I can’t find a good lawyer.”

“Who aren’t loyal” is the key phrase. He demanded then, and still demands, lawyers who swear personal fealty, even at the expense of the profession’s code of conduct and their own reputations. Consider, for instance, the unnamed Trump lawyer in Mar-aLago who, in a signed letter two months ago, falsely told the Justice Department that all stolen classified materials had been returned.

At this stage in our endless psychodrama, what top quality criminal lawyers are eager to sign up for Trump, at great risk of burning themselves down? Four long years ago, Rudovsky told me that “for any lawyer, this relationship is so fraught with difficulty, a nightmare. You just know it’s going to end in a bad way.” It already has, uncountable times.

To tweak John Kerry’s famous Vietnam-era quote: How do you ask a lawyer to be the last to die for a mistake?

Hardest jobs to fill

BUS DRIVERS AND SPECIAL EDUCATION STAFF ARE MOST SOUGHT AFTER IN COLORADO SCHOOLS

BY

For Lacey Nelson, the weeks leading up to the start of school are a blur of spreadsheets, meetings, and calls from principals about last-minute teacher resignations.

With less than two weeks to go, Denver Public Schools’ director of talent acquisition is still looking to hire 150 teachers, 275 paraprofessionals, and up to 45 bus drivers. Priorities get reevaluated daily based on reports from the field. A school that was “fine” two days ago suddenly needs two more teachers.

It’s all completely normal.

“In general, we are not seeing anything different this school year than past school years, and I’m not seeing anything that is majorly off,” Nelson said. “It’s a pretty calm year.”

Even as Colorado school districts are holding hire-on-the-spot job fairs and offering signing bonuses, many education leaders told Chalkbeat the challenges are nothing new and that vacancies and hiring are similar to those of years past.

Nikki Jost, executive director of human resources for Mesa County Valley District 51 in western Colorado, said

hiring is actually going better this year.

“COVID protocols are different than in years past, we had a 9.1% increase in wages for returning employees, we increased starting salaries across the board, we increased our social media presence, and we have some amazing recruiters,” she wrote in response to a Chalkbeat survey.

But normal doesn’t mean fully staffed.

According to the 2021-22 educator shortage report, Colorado schools couldn’t fill 8% of their open teaching positions last year nor 17% of their special service provider positions. Roughly 9% of paraprofessional or classroom aide positions went unfilled. The number of unfilled positions, as well as the share filled through shortage mechanisms like bringing back retired educators or hiring teachers with an emergency license, has gone up over the past three years, even as the total number of openings has gone down, the report said.

Firm data on this year’s vacancies is hard to come by, both locally and nationally. In the weeks before the start

of school, the numbers change daily. Across 10 Colorado districts large and small that responded to Chalkbeat information requests, superintendents and human resources directors said they’ve raised pay, improved benefits, and made other changes in an effort to be competitive.

Denver is touting its health insurance plan, entirely free to employees. The Brighton-based 27J district tells job candidates about its four-day week and investments in mental health supports that take some of the load off teachers. Many districts are offering on-the-job training and help with licensure.

Bus drivers and special education jobs — teachers, special service providers and especially classroom assistants — remain among the hardest positions to fill, officials said. And those vacancies hit children and families hard.

School districts face stiff competition for bus drivers

Many Colorado districts are consolidating bus routes and cutting service in response to driver shortages.

“Last year, we consolidated bus

routes and added a non-CDL position, allowing employees in that position to drive smaller vans on many routes,” said Myla Shepherd, chief human resources officer for Adams 12 Five Star Schools serving north Denver suburbs. ”These two measures greatly helped us maintain adequate transportation staffing levels.”

In 27J, transportation office employees and mechanics have to drive bus routes in addition to their other job duties, and students have been placed on wait lists for bus service. About 10% of 100 bus driver positions are open there.

In Jeffco Public Schools, nearly a third of 283 bus driver positions were open less than two weeks before the start of the school year. In a July email to families, Jeffco Chief Operating Officer Steve Bell laid out a plan to gradually restore bus routes as more drivers are hired and trained. In the meantime, students with disabilities would continue to get the highest priority.

Trevor Byrne, a Jeffco bus driver and president of Jefferson County Transportation Association, the union representing drivers, said the bottom line is pay. Even with a recent pay increase to $21.70 an hour, drivers have a lot of options that pay more. Byrne said he stays because he loves working with kids.

“I’m not disparaging sanitation workers, but you can make $35 an hour driving a garbage truck,” Byrne said. “How important is it to transport our special needs kids versus taking garbage away from someone’s house?”

Nelson, of Denver Public Schools, agreed.

“You think about Amazon, they need drivers,” she said. “The post office, FedEx, UPS, they all need drivers.”

Denver has raised pay and like many districts pays for driver training and offers signing bonuses. Dropping a vaccine mandate that led some workers

to quit last year has helped too, Nelson said.

Special education jobs have seen shortages for years

Superintendents and human resources directors said jobs working with students with disabilities continue to be among the hardest to fill. Special service providers like occupational therapists and speech language pathologists can make more money in private practice. Classroom aides can make more money in retail. And there simply aren’t enough special education teachers for all the open positions.

In a bid for experienced educators, Adams 12 now offers unlimited credit for years of service in other districts to special education teachers and special service providers.

Special education paraprofessionals have been particularly hard to hire. These educators provide one-on-one and small group support to students with a variety of disabilities, including students with complex physical and emotional needs. Often these jobs combine low pay with major responsibilities.

Lori Williams, a special education para in Jeffco, said low staffing makes it harder to give students the support they deserve.

“We’re supposed to push them into a general ed classroom and sometimes we can’t do that because we’re short-staffed,” she said. “And other times students that are in a general ed classroom don’t get the support that they need.”

Denver just raised pay for special education paras from $16.50 an hour to $21 an hour and has seen hiring pick up. As of Tuesday, the district had 137 special education para positions still to fill.

“Often they are working oneon-one with a student with really high needs, and they need additional training and qualifications,” Nelson said. “Finding someone with the qualifications — not just the on-paper qualifications but the skills to do that job — can be really challenging.

“When you earn $16.50, it’s

easy on that bad day to turn around and apply to something else.”

Even a few vacancies can make a difference

Staffing challenges vary by community and even within districts. One school might be operating as normal while another has parent volunteers serving cold lunches.

Marty Gutierrez, a middle school math teacher in Adams 12, said there are four open teaching positions out of 40 in his building, including teachers who gave notice in August to take better paid or less stressful jobs, often still within education.

“People can go where they want to because there are so many openings,” he said.

That means he’s starting the year unsure who his planning partners will be, if he’ll get his planning periods, or if he’ll have to pick up extra classes. And he worries it will be harder to set expectations and norms for students and establish a strong school culture if there’s a rotating cast of substitutes across multiple classes.

In addition to two science teachers, a math teacher, and a special education teacher, his school lost its head custodian over the summer. These are all positions where districts report hiring challenges.

“It’s affecting us top to bottom,” Gutierrez said.

Chris Selle, superintendent of the 681-student Meeker district in northwestern Colorado, said until this year, he’d always been fully staffed by August. But this summer, three teachers backed out of contracts and the elementary school principal resigned. In a small district, losing one teacher can mean doubling class sizes for that grade or subject.

This week, Selle and the school board decided not to try to fill the elementary principal job this school year. Instead, Selle will lead the elementary school along with handling his superintendent duties.

“Some things just won’t get done,” he said.

PREPSCOVERAGE

Priola switches parties

Adams County state Sen. Kevin Priola announced Monday he is changing parties from Republican to Democrat in light of what he says is a political party that has strayed too far from its ideals.

“To be clear, I will not be changing the way I vote on legislation,”

Priola, who represents Senate District 25, part of Aurora and other Adams County communities, said in a statement. “I just simply will now cast my votes with a D next to my name instead of an R.”

Priola has held a House and Senate seat in the Colorado Legislature since 2009.

State Republicans lambasted Priola for the move.

“Kevin Priola finally made the move to the party he’s consistently voted with,” Colorado GOP Chairwoman Kristi Burton Brown said in a statement. “After lying to his constituents and routinely voting for tax increases that hurt the everyday working families of his district, he’s now admitted his true affiliation: a pro tax-increase Democrat.

“Priola will regret this decision when he is in the minority come January 2023,” Burton Brown said.

Some conservative politicos have already floated recalling Priola. Michael Fields, president of a conservative think tank and former state director for Americans For Prosperity, tweeted Monday, “Two things a legitimate recall effort needs: big grassroots support and money. If an effort moves forward, it would have both.”

Senate Minority Leader John Cooke, a Republican from Greeley, said in a statement that Priola’s switch was not surprising given his votes during the last few legislative sessions.

“This event will not change the trajectory of this election cycle, nor the outcome of this year’s fight for the state senate,” Cooke said. “As for Senator Priola, his new district will likely not be happy with this announcement and may explore their options for new representation.”

Priola’s change in party does not substantially effect the balance of power in the state Senate, which is dominated by Democrats. Out of 35 Colorado Senate seats, Democrats now control 21 and Republicans 14.

Priola said he was horrified by the Jan. 6 insurrection on the U.S. Capitol and had waited in vain for his party to repudiate it, as well as former President Donald Trump, who continues to insist, without evidence, that it was stolen.

“It never came,” Priola said. “To my dismay, brave and honorable Republicans like Mike Pence, Liz Cheney, Mitt Romney and Adam Kinzinger have fought to defend the Constitution and the rule of law only to be met with ridicule and threats.”

“I cannot continue to be part of a political party that is OK with a violent attempt to overturn a free and fair election and continues to peddle claims that the 2020 election was stolen,” Priola said.

Democrats were welcoming to Priola, despite his proclaimed anti-abortion stances.

“We are a broad tent party, always seeking good ideas from the left and right to move (Colorado) forward,” Democratic Gov. Jared Polis said in a tweet. “Senator Priola is a strong leader on climate issues & will hopefully be even more effective on the Democratic side of the aisle.”

The state Democratic party echoed Polis’ comments.

“We know Senator Priola will make a strong addition to the party and that our fellow Democrats will welcome him with open arms,” party chair Morgan Carroll said in a statement.

EDUCATION

Test scores still lagging

Colorado students made up ground from last year but are still lagging academically compared to where they were pre-pandemic, according to new statewide testing scores released this week by the Department of Education.

On Wednesday, the department published the state and districtwide results of the standardized Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) tests taken this spring, the first time the full slate of tests were administered since 2019. The tests were canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a scaledback version was administered last year, which many students did not end up taking.

Participation rates rebounded significantly this year, approaching levels similar to 2019. But while students gained academic ground since 2021, the Department of Education said that there is “more work to be done” for students to fully recover academically from the pandemic.

The tests were administered this year to students in grades three through eight in English language arts (ELA) and math. In a news release, the Department of Education said that scores improved from 2021 for most grades, “however, those scores declined from 2019 in

almost every grade level and subject area.”

That was borne out locally, as both Cherry Creek and Aurora Public Schools students performed worse this year than in 2019, with APS students having a larger decrease in performance.

According to the data, in 2022, 23.6% of APS students met or exceeded expectations on the ELA exam compared to 26.4% in 2019, a 2.8% decrease.

In math, just 13.8% met or exceeded expectations this year compared to 18.2% in 2019, a 4.4% decrease.

In the Cherry Creek School District, 49.4% of students met or exceeded expectations on the ELA exam this year compared to 50.8% in 2019, a slight decrease of 1.4%.

In math, 40.2% met or exceeded expectations this year compared to 43.1% in 2019, a 2.9% decrease.

Both districts have allocated a significant amount of federal pandemic relief funding to addressing learning loss, which officials say will be a multi-year effort.

In the release, the department said that, statewide, the 2021-2022 school year was much more regular for students than the year preceding it. The ongoing disruption of the pandemic, however, should be taken into consideration when evaluating the scores.

“Today, we celebrate the fact that student scores were better in most cases than they were in 2021, but we continue to face the challenge of fully bringing kids back to the levels they were before the disruptions of the pandemic as well as closing the historic opportunity and achievement gaps,” Colorado Education Commissioner Katy Anthes said in a statement.

APS moves to fire teacher

Aurora Public Schools moved one step closer Tuesday to firing a teacher who was convicted of sexually abusing a minor he taught at an Arizona school about 20 years ago.

In Colorado, dismissals of non-probationary teachers must be presented to a school board before they take effect, and teachers have a right to appeal the decision.

Former Vista PEAK Spanish teacher Mark Lindrud was arrested last summer in connection with sex crimes against a minor in Arizona in 2002 and 2003, according to police.

A news release from the Oro Valley Police Department said Lindrud was convicited of having sexual contact with a 14-year-old student while he was a teacher at Ironwood Ridge High School in Oro Valley in 2002 and 2003.

He was convicted of three counts of sexual conduct with a minor under the age of 15, a class 2 felony; one count of sexual abuse of a minor, a class 3 felony, and 17 counts of sexual conduct with a minor under the age of 18, a class 6 felony.

According to reporting from KVOA news in Tucson, Lindrud was found guilty on all counts in a jury trial in July. According to court documents, on August 5 he was sentenced to 66 years and nine months in prison in the Arizona Department of Corrections.

Lindrud has been on an unpaid leave from teaching since his arrest, APS chief personnel officer Damon Smith told The Sentinel. As part of the process of firing him, the APS board of education was presented with a recommendation for his dismissal at its Tuesday evening meeting.

The board was provided with a memo about the recommendation, which was not publicly released due to the sensitive nature of the circumstances, Smith said.

Now that the board has received the recommendation, Lindrud will be notified of the board’s intent to dismiss and have 10 days to respond, Smith said. If he does not contest the dismissal, it will happen automatically. If he chooses to contest, it will then be reviewed at the state level.

A LinkedIn profile for a user named Mark Lindrud says that Lindrud has taught Spanish at Vista PEAK since 2018. According to his hiring application at APS, he previously taught at a number of schools in Douglas County, Denver and other parts of the metro area after moving from Arizona to Colorado.

In 2011, Lindrud was charged in Arapahoe County with driving under the influence and failure to display proof of insurance, but the charges were dismissed, according to court records.

Kidnapping suspects elude cops

Aurora police arrested two men Sunday evening accused of being involved in the kidnapping of another man earlier in the day, eluding police during a chase and ultimately crashing their pick-up truck.

The chain of incidents began at about 1 p.m. Sunday when a man called dispatchers to say he’d been kidnapped by “multiple suspects” in the area of East 14th Avenue and Akron Street, according to police.

“The victim was able to escape and call 911 for help,” police said in a social media post Sunday evening. “Investigators were able to identify the involved vehicle, a white Chevy Pickup.”

At about 7 p.m., officers saw the truck near East Colfax Avenue and Akron Street.

“Officers attempted to stop the vehicle but it ran, and a pursuit was initiated,” police said.

During the chase, the truck crashed near East Sixth Avenue and Del Mar Parkway, police said.

“One suspect was arrested in the truck, and one was arrested after a foot pursuit,” police said.

Police did not say whether the caller earlier on Sunday or the occupants of the pick-up truck were injured.

“Investigators are still conducting interviews and collecting evidence,” police said Sunday night. “At this time, it is unknown what led up to the initial incident.”

Police said anyone with information can call Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867. Tipsters can remain anonymous and still be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000, police said.

City handing out anti-theft gear

An Aurora lawmaker and city staffers will hand out gear Aug. 27 to mitigate the impacts of car theft, along with gun locks, drug disposal bags and other safety items.

Councilmember Juan Marcano said the “family safety check” events are specifically being held in parts of the city that are hardest hit by motor vehicle theft — this time,

in west Aurora at the McDonald’s at 12900 E. Mississippi Ave.

“This way, people will be able to protect themselves so they don’t become victims,” Marcano said.

The giveaway comes as the city grapples with a rise in motor vehicle thefts — more than 4,200 vehicles have been reported stolen this year, according to Aurora police.

Aurora’s City Council has made addressing motor vehicle thefts a top priority, possibly becoming the first city to introduce mandatory minimum sentences for car thieves in city court this year. Marcano voted against the change, questioning whether it would be effective at deterring thefts.

Marcano said the family safety check is being funded using a police budget surplus caused by understaffing. In monthly updates to the City Council’s public safety committee, police have reported shortages of between 25 and 40 sworn officers out of a budgeted force of 744 this year.

Items that will be distributed on the 27th while supplies last include steering wheel locks, which prevent

a car from being driven properly unless the device is removed; catalytic converter tags, which make converters harder to sell illegitimately and less attractive to thieves; prescription drug disposal bags and firearm locks.

Marcano said there may also be food at the event. The event, which is the sixth family safety check that Marcano has organized with the city’s help this year, will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

“I think our last was our best attended by far,” he said. “My goal is to produce good results here and make it a permanent fixture for the department.”

Woman wounded by gunfire

Neither a 22-year-old woman nor her friend offered police details about how the woman was wounded by gunfire early Saturday, according to Aurora police.

The injured woman was taken to a nearby hospital some time before

3 a.m. with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the leg, police said in a social media post.

“The victim and her friend are not forthcoming with information,” police said.

The shooting might have occurred somewhere near Peoria Street and Exposition Avenue in east-central Aurora, police posted. The woman nor her friend offered any shooting suspect information.

Police said anyone with information can call Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867. Tipsters can remain anonymous and still be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000, police said.

Home of standoff empty

Aurora police may have spent hours at a standoff at a north Aurora home despite the suspect, or anyone, not being inside the house during negotiations.

The standoff began at about 2 p.m. when police surround a house at Akron Street and East 19th Avenue. Police issued orders for neighbors to leave the area or shelter inside their homes as they negotiated with a man later identified as 38-year-old Alexander Smith.

Police said Smith is wanted on two outstanding arrest warrants, one for for escape from the Department of Corrections and another possession of a firearm as a felon.

Police later said that in contacting the owner of the home, that the front door had been kicked in. Police said that led them to believe Smith was inside the house.

At about 3 p.m., police said they were in contact with Smith via telephone, indicating he was inside the house. Police negotiated with Smith to give himself up, but to no avail.

At about 4 p.m., police said communication with Smith ended, and they began using a speaker outside the house, telling Smith to come out.

It’s unclear whether Smith was every actually in the home, or if he was, when he left it.

“We continue to make announcements with instructions to come out of the location,” police said in a tweet.

At about 7 p.m., police canceled the orders for neighbors to stay

inside.

Police did not say if they charged the house or how the determined Smith was not inside.

“When officers first arrived on scene they found a kicked in door,” police said in a tweet at about 7 p.m.  “The resident of the house said the door was not previously broken. This led officers to believe the fugitive was inside that home. The home has been cleared and the fugitive is not inside.”

Police did not say if they continue to search for Smith, or where they think he might be.

Minor facing murder charges

The minor arrested in connection to the shooting death of an adult man earlier this month has been identified as Donovan Yates, 17.

According to a Monday news release from the 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office, Yates is facing charges of first-degree murder, a class 1 felony, and possession of a handgun by a juvenile, a class 2 misdemeanor.

On the evening of Aug. 8, police were called to the 1500 block of North Beeler Street on the report of a shooting. At the scene, officers found a 28-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds.

According to the Adams County Coroner’s Office, he was taken to the UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. He has been identified as Deronne Zan Clayton.

Yates was arrested after turning himself into police on Aug. 15, according to the Aurora Police Department. He is next scheduled to appear in Adams County District Court in December.

Lawyer: No Qanon evidence in kidnapping case

There is no evidence a Parker woman who lost custody of her

7-year-old son for allegedly lying about his health problems plotted with Qanon supporters to have him kidnapped from foster care, her lawyer told jurors Monday at the start of her trial.

The prosecution’s case about the alleged plot in 2019 is based on the account of Cynthia Abcug’s then 16-year-old daughter, who told her counselor that her mother was talking with followers of the baseless Qanon conspiracy theory about launching a raid on the home, defense lawyer Brian Hall said during opening statements in court in Castle Rock.

Many Qanon supporters believe former President Donald Trump was fighting enemies in the socalled deep state to expose a group of satanic, cannibalistic child molesters they believe secretly runs the globe.

Hall stressed that the girl did not know details about what was supposed to happen and did not think her mother knew where her son’s foster home was.

But Chief Deputy District Gary Dawson told the jury that the daughter heard her mother talking about the raid on several occasions in September and August of 2019. Around that same time, Abcug bought a gun, and a man identified only as Ryan and described as an ex-member of the military and a sniper moved into their home to provide protection, Dawson said.

An older son who was no longer living at home will also testify that he remembers Abcug talking about launching a raid to get her young son back, Dawson said.

Abcug is charged with both conspiracy to commit second-degree kidnapping, a felony, and misdemeanor child abuse for allegedly committing medical child abuse by lying about his health problems to doctors, causing him to be subjected to unnecessary procedures, and telling staff at his school that he suffered seizures, had trouble walking and swallowing and was dying. The boy has not suffered any medical problems since being put in Douglas County foster care in May 2019, Dawson said.

Hall said there was no evidence of medical child abuse. He said that a doctor who cared for the boy in Florida and a half-brother witnessed him having seizures and implied that at least some of his other health problems were side effects of medication prescribed to treat the seizures.

Abcug, a single mother, moved her family to Colorado in 2018 to seek treatment based on the recommendation of the Florida doctor, Hall said. A doctor in Colorado had developed a plan to wean Abcug’s son off the seizure medication about two weeks before he was removed from his mother’s custody, Hall said.

“Ms. Abcug was doing the best she could after years of not knowing what was wrong with her child,”

Hall said.

Gun groups sue Colorado cities

Two gun rights organizations filed federal court lawsuits last week challenging bans on semi-automatic weapons and magazine ammunition restrictions adopted by two Colorado cities after the state allowed local municipalities to enact tougher gun control measures than called for by state law.

The lawsuits against Boulder and Louisville by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners and the National Foundation for Gun Rights follow two others the groups lodged against the state and county over similar gun control measures.

Another Rocky Mountain Gun Owners challenge led one judge to temporarily block the town of Superior from enforcing a ban on the sale and possession of certain semi-automatic weapons and large-capacity magazines.

The organization’s legal actions follow a June U.S. Supreme Court ruling that expanded gun rights and threatens to upend similar firearms restrictions across the country. After the high court’s decision, Rocky Mountain Gun Owners promised a wave of lawsuits — and is following through with that promise.

Taylor Rhodes, executive director of the group, said in a statement that “it doesn’t matter how big or how small the localities are — if you

pass unconstitutional gun control, we will sue you.”

The gun rights organizations contend in part that millions of citizens own the now-banned rifles and magazines that can store more than a 10-round limit imposed both by Boulder and by Louisville in July — and that they are entitled to possess, sell or transfer them legally under their 2nd Amendment rights.

Shannon Aulabaugh, a spokesperson for the City of Boulder, said Thursday the city does not comment on pending litigation.

A spokesperson for Louisville couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.

Last month, the Foundation for Gun Rights sued Colorado over the state’s 2013 ban on magazines that hold over 15 rounds, citing the Supreme Court ruling. The foundation and the Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, a sister organization, have been fighting to repeal the magazine capacity limit since its passing in 2013. The law followed the 2012 mass shooting at a theater in Aurora, a city on the outskirts of Denver, that killed 12 people and injured 70.

Other local governments only recently gained the ability to pass their own gun regulations.

Last year, state lawmakers repealed a law that prevented local governments from passing gun ordinances more restrictive than state laws in response to a shooting that killed 10 people at a Boulder supermarket in March 2021.

AURORA CONSERVATIVE COUNCILMEMBERS AFFIRM ANTI-PANHANDLING CAMPAIGN

BY MAX LEVY, Sentinel Staff Writer

Panhandlers will soon have to contend with signs around some of Aurora’s busiest intersections urging drivers to give to charities instead, after an anti-begging campaign was approved Monday by the majority of Aurora’s City Council.

Sponsors Angela Lawson and Steve Sundberg pitched the campaign — which the city projects will cost $29,440, including the cost of posting and maintaining 64 signs at 16 intersections around the city — as a way of protecting panhandlers and drivers in busy intersections.

“This is not going to stop people from giving,” Lawson said. “To me, this is more about the safety issue along these narrow intersections and these narrow areas where the cars are so close to the people who are panhandling. And that’s a dangerous situation.”

The group voted 6-4 to introduce the campaign, with progressives Alison Coombs, Juan Marcano, Ruben Medina and Crystal Murillo voting “no.”

Opponents questioned whether it would have an impact and if the group was stigmatizing homeless people asking for help. Marcano noted that a comparable program in Salt Lake City raised about $5,000 per year, which would not be enough to provide housing for a sin-

gle person.

“I’m just not seeing the payoff for this kind of policy,” he said. “I do share concerns about folks being on medians and in traffic, but this isn’t how we’re going to change that.”

Coombs also repeated her criticism from the Aug. 15 study session where the campaign was first considered — that the proposal lacked important data in part because it had not gone through a policy committee, where a subgroup of council members has the chance to provide input on a proposal before it’s brought before the council as a whole.

Sundberg said Aug. 15 that he and Lawson skipped the policy committee step to “fast-track” the proposal and that it was one of the first pieces of legislation he had introduced. On Monday, he said the move allowed them to evade criticism from council progressives.

“If this would have went before one of your committees, it (would have) had a snowball’s chance in hell of getting out of there and going to a study session,” Sundberg told Coombs. “If we would have put the camping ban through one of your committees, it would not have made it either. The city would look like 1969 Woodstock … with all of the campers around.”

A policy committee does not have the

power to stop a council member from bringing legislation to the full council for the entire group to consider and vote on.

After Coombs’ criticism last week that sponsors lacked important information such as the number of traffic accidents caused by panhandlers and citations issued for prohibited forms of begging, additional data was included in the council’s agenda packet.

Staffers wrote that three summons had been issued this year for panhandling too close to a street or highway and no summons were issued for “aggressive begging,” though officers were said to “often contact individuals” and give them verbal warnings.

They also said police would have to review every traffic accident report to determine how many accidents involved panhandlers. While Lawson said last week that she was also concerned about links between panhandling and human trafficking, staffers said they were unaware of any cases of that happening.

They wrote that police were able to find 163 calls where the term “panhandler” was used, but determining the context of those mentions would require each call to be reviewed.

Supporters of the campaign specifically said it would not prohibit people

from asking for or providing money and help, which courts have ruled is protected speech, though they also argued that panhandling enables some homeless people to support addictions to drugs.

Sundberg said two people who panhandled near his workplace have overdosed on heroin, which they may have purchased using money obtained from panhandling.

“When it comes to stigma, I’d like to have the stigma of saving a life or two,” Sundberg said.

Marcano said he thought the campaign would not stop people from overdosing on drugs.

“What you’re trying to do here, while I think it’s very well-intentioned, would not have helped either of those two people significantly, or substantially, or frankly, probably, at all,” Marcano said. “For the amount that we’re going to spend on the signs alone, you could put two people through permanent supportive housing for a year. And that would have saved their lives.”

In addition to signs, the city will use its social media accounts and other resources like Aurora TV, newsletters, posters and the city website to spread the message of the “Give Real Change” campaign, steering donations toward the Spirit of Aurora charity in particular.

Councilmember Steve Sundberg holds up his self-made sign to make a point during the Aug. 22 2022 council meeting at City Hall. Screen Grab

FOR HIRE OR FOOD, GARDEN SITTERS SAVE THE DAY DURING SUMMER

BY LEANNE ITALIE, Associated Press

Take my chard, please!

The season has come when many home gardeners, their numbers booming since the pandemic began, are being rewarded with fully matured, readyto-pick vegetables and flowers.

It’s also vacation season, and this summer travel is back.

How do you maintain your garden and take advantage of all that homegrown goodness during extended trips away? Even experienced gardeners can end up with more tomatoes, beans and zucchini than they’d expected come late summer.

Garden sitters are one answer.

Some home gardeners hire

professionals, while many just rely on neighbors and hope for the best.

“It’s really hard to leave the garden,” said Theresa Fiumano-Rhatigan, a longtime home gardener in Brooklyn. She relies on her parents and other nearby relatives as garden sitters during her five weeks each summer in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. “Nobody does it quite like I do.”

Having an experienced sitter who isn’t afraid to take control can help. Avoid a free-for-all of inexperienced neighbors and friends traipsing through to pick what they want with no care given to the plants and no idea when to water.

“The first thing is to find one friend with a garden you like and make sure you’re willing to return the favor,” said Adam Choper, associate director for outdoor gardens and sustainable horticulture at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx.

He suggests walking your garden sitter through the process beforehand to make sure things are done just right. Setting up sprinklers or soaker hoses will make things easier while you’re away. For container gardens, group the containers together in the shade so your plants won’t dry out as quickly if your vacation is just a week or two, Choper said. Some

gardeners place containers in kiddy pools with water that a garden sitter need only fill up if necessary.

Choper also recommends putting down mulch before heading out for long periods. That helps the soil conserve water and keeps weeds at bay.

For gardeners without trusted neighbors or loved ones, garden sitters for hire are abundant on local online message boards or at nurseries and horticultural societies.

Rachel Mulkerin tends to about 3,000 square feet of garden space on her 9-acre property in Sherman, Connecticut, and has hired special needs helpers she found through her mother, a former adult education teacher.

“It’s a wildly mutually beneficial arrangement,” she said.

Mulkerin uses about half of what she produces for herself and her family and gives away the rest to those in need in her community.

Through time, gardens have offered a sense of safety and comfort, so entrusting them to others can be difficult, said Ambra Edwards, a gardening historian and co-author of “The Story of Gardening.”

Edwards, who gardens herself

in England’s rural Dorset, considers holiday a reprieve from the toil, but she knows a lot of manic gardeners who can’t tear themselves away.

“I’ve got one friend in particular and she has to travel a lot. She travels the length and breadth of the country. And when she does, she takes all her vegetable plants, all her sweet peas and a particular myrtle in a pot that she got from a very dear friend, now deceased, and loads them in the car. They go with her. She’s the snail carrying a house,” Edwards said.

Gardeners, generally speaking, are sharers, and sharing vegetables while away not only produces more after picking, but also avoids rotting tomatoes and other crops.

“Rotten tomatoes will cause other tomatoes to rot, and they’re also really smelly,” Choper said.

Some vegetables, like cucumbers and zucchini, need to be picked so they don’t grow into monsters that aren’t as pleasant to eat.

A designated garden sitter can take what they want and leave the rest on a front porch or at the end of a driveway after putting out the word of free fresh food.

Heather Grabin in Hampton, New Jersey, has 10 garden plots on her 40-acre property. She also owns a cafe in a city an hour away

that doesn’t have access to much fresh produce. She uses her vegetables and herbs at her restaurant, and sells some of her excess there at low cost.

Grabin had to delay a threeweek trip to California this year because of a new school schedule for her two kids. By the time she and her family left, her tomatoes and zucchini were abundant. With such an overwhelming amount, she went the hired garden sitter route.

“It’s different when you’re doing it yourself versus when you have to ask someone else to do it for you,” she said. “He’s been flash freezing everything. It’s a lot.”

Doug Guttenberg and his wife, Tal, grow herbs in their backyard and vegetables in a community garden plot just a few minutes from their Brooklyn home. They also own a house in Detroit and spend a month in Michigan every summer. They entrust their Brooklyn plants to a neighbor, a fellow gardener, and know firsthand what happens without a sitter after choosing to forgo one last year.

“When we came back, the cucumbers had attacked everything,” Tal said. “It was like this tornado of cucumbers. It was a bit crazy, and they didn’t even fruit. I mean, no cucumbers came of it.”

The Farmer’s Market is every Saturday from 8 a.m. – 1 p.m.

The outdoor shopping center is introducing a new feature this year, Southlands Sunset Markets, if the minor alliteration doesn’t excite you already, the offerings from local jewelry makers, crafters and other artisans surely will. This weekly event starts June 15 from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., every Wednesday.

Open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday; 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekends. The exhibit is expected to be up until April 2023 15051 E. Alameda Pkwy. Free. Visit auroragov. org or call 303-739-6660 for more information.

One doesn’t have to look far for Aurora’s vibrant roots. One in five people here are foreign born and according to the latest census, more than 20% of residents have family origins in Mexico. That brings the city great food, dance, art, and, especially, pride — all of which will be on display at the Aurora History Museum for the next year. For the exhibit, museum staff conducted outreach in both English and Spanish to gather input about Mexican culture in Aurora. “The people of Mexican descent who call Aurora home come from all walks of life and have their own individual stories of immigration or a long family history that predates Colorado statehood,” museum director T. Scott Williams says. Over the next year various Latino artists will display their work at the museum. This showcase attempts to capture the stories of people who make Colorado’s third largest city, a mosaic of cultures. Entrance to the museum is always free.

BIDEN’S BIG BIG BILL COMES HOME TO AURORA

BY SENTINEL STAFF WRITERS

Lauded as one of the biggest pieces of legislation Washington lawmakers have taken on in decades, the so-called Inflation Reduction Act is aimed at improving the nation’s economy, particularly through reducing health care costs and addressing environmental concerns.

Colorado’s Democratic lawmakers are celebrating the new law, while Republicans are skeptical at best. Lauren Boebert, the Congressional representative for southern and western Colorado, lambasted the bill for its focus on beefing up IRS enforcement. And Senate candidate Joe O’Dea’s campaign told the Sentinel the measure “goes after American manufacturing, and it gives the IRS new funding to go after low-and middle-income Coloradans and small

businesses.”

Contrary to O’Dea is excitement among Aurora’s manufacturing community, which local economic officials say will have added resources to make eco-conscious upgrades.

O’Dea’s campaign said inflation is the biggest issue the business owner hears from voters.

“He would work specifically on legislation to fight inflationary pressures by providing incentives to help working families save more, increase domestic energy production and natural gas exports, and eliminate red tape that’s constraining trade and affecting our supply chain,” O’Dea’s campaign said when asked about specific measures that he’d offer instead.

Local leaders and political candidates weigh in on the effects of the Inflation Reduction Act that everyone might notice

The bill was met with excitement in the governor’s mansion, with officials in the Polis administration saying that many of its components dovetail with work the administration is already doing, particularly in regards to healthcare and climate.

“This really continues to build on the governor’s agenda,” said spokesperson Elizabeth Kosar. “We’re saving people money on healthcare, we’re addressing climate change and we’re continuing to build an economy that works for all.”

However, officials said that it’s too soon to say exactly how the IRA will impact the state, as the legislation is in its very first days of being implemented.

Pat Meyers, executive director and chief economic recovery officer in the Office of Economic Development and International Trade, said that it’s currently unclear how much of the money in the IRA will go directly to state governments and how much will be parceled out to local governments, private industry and grant programs.

At first glance, Meyers said that the bill’s healthcare and environmental provisions stood out to him.

“It’s pretty obvious it’s going to build on a lot of the initiatives the governor has had the last four years around healthcare, clean energy and basic improvements to our economic lives,” he said.

The bill will cap the price of co-payments for insulin medication at $35, a boon for diabetics as the cost of the life-sustaining medicine has soared. That will create increased protections for Colorado patients, as the state legislature passed a bill last year capping insulin prices at $100 for a month’s supply.

It will also cap out-of-pocket expenses for prescription drugs for Medicare patients at $2,000 a year beginning in 2025 and give Medicare the ability to negotiate directly on drug prices for the first time ever.

“It’s going to have a fairly significant impact in Colorado on drug pricing,” he said.

It also extends Affordable Care Act subsidies that were passed in the American Rescue Plan Act for three more years, which Meyers said is expected to affect 155,000 Coloradans enrolled in the ACA, who will save on average $900 a year.

In terms of clean energy, Meyers said that the rebates for installing efficient appliances will capitalize on similar programs that the state has been promoting, including a bill passed in the most recent legislative session that gives a 10% income tax credit to anyone who purchases a heat pump.

Funds are also dedicated in the IRA to fire recovery, drought mitigation, reducing air pollution and promotion the usage of electric vehicles, all policies that are highly relevant to Colorado as the state becomes increasingly vulnerable to the ramifications of climate change.

So, how much will the IRA actually combat inflation? Meyers said it won’t immediately be clear, though he noted that economists expect it to reduce the deficit, which should help to reduce inflation. The provisions that lower healthcare costs will be a plus as well, he said.

“I think it’ll take a little bit of time to tell, it’ll take time to start implementing all of this,” Meyers said. “Bills don’t get implemented on day one. But we are hopeful that it’ll have a beneficial impact on inflation.”

A breath of fresh(er) air

Sponsors of the Act say its incentives for green energy and other provisions to reduce pollution will cut greenhouse gas emissions nationwide by 40% compared to 2005 levels by the end of the decade, countering the effects of man-made climate change.

The Marshall Fire in Boulder County last winter proved that climate change is affecting suburban communities, and not just their rural, forested neighbors, said Congressman Jason Crow, who represents Aurora, Centennial and other parts of the southern Denver metroplex.

“(Climate change) is a risk to all of us and our health,” he said. “In the summers (we’re not) able to see the mountains. Our children are breathing this air.”

Crow’s also adamant that climate change is the top threat to national security. “It’s both a threat magnifier in that it makes every threat worse and it’s multiplying threats,” he said.

The act includes a spectrum of tax incentives and discounts that support clean power generation, electric vehicles, manufacturing and building efficiency, along with grants and loans that support energy efficiency in the power, industrial, construction and transportation sectors.

Senators Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper both touted the act’s climate provisions as unprecedented in scope.

“I think that this is the most significant climate bill (of) its size that’s been passed by any country in the world. I don’t want to understate how important that is,” said Bennet. “The idea that we’ve got a bill that will cut carbon pollution 40% from 2005 levels to 2030 is extraordinary, especially given the fact that, a month ago, it didn’t look like we were going to pass anything at all.”

On the topic of the Paris Agreement and the United States’ obligation to reduce its carbon emissions, Hickenlooper acknowledged that the act doesn’t get the country “all of the way there,” but that incentivizing large companies to invest in renewable energy would lay the groundwork for lower-cost wind power and other-generation resources.

“Instead of a $300 million wind farm, all of the sudden, you’re looking at a $3 million wind farm, and you’re seeing these all over the country,” he said. “This is the beginning, not the end.”

Incentives for home energy efficiency mean it may also be cheaper for households to install heat pump systems rather than furnaces fed by natural gas, further reducing the country’s dependence on fossil fuels, said Hickenlooper.

The senators said they weren’t aware of any estimates of how many tons of emissions would be cut in Colorado specifically following the implementation of the act.

“We will make progress as a state, but I have not seen that data yet,” Bennet said.

Hickenlooper said the act would go a long way toward reducing

the “brown cloud” of smog over the metro area specifically.

“It’s always been a battle about air quality,” he said. “You’re not going to have this battle 10 years from now. I think you’re going to have a different level of comfort.”

While most agree that there will be a substantial impact to the environment, analysts have also concluded that oil and gas companies benefiting from the new law will offset those achievements.

The act buoys oil and gas interests by mandating leasing of vast areas of public lands and off the nation’s coasts. And it locks renewables and fossil fuels together: If the Biden administration wants solar and wind on public lands, it must offer new oil and gas leases first.

As a result, U.S. oil and gas production and emissions from burning fuels could keep growing, according to some industry analysts and climate experts. With domestic demand sliding, that means more fossil fuels exported to growing foreign markets, including from the Gulf where pollution from oil and gas activity plagues many poor and minority communities.

On the assembly line

The several manufacturing plants humming on the eastern edge of Aurora are counted among the winners in the Act.

“We’re generally excited about this,” said Yuriy Gorlov, vice president at the Aurora Economic Development Council, which works with and lures businesses to the city.

The legislation’s emphasis on growing manufacturing jobs and investing in clean energy could mean that Aurora-based assembly facilities, fulfillment centers and other manufacturing hubs could better utilize cleaner energy in their production.

Targeted incentives in the bill make it attractive for companies to upgrade equipment and new companies to invest in cleaner technology. In Aurora, AEDC Director of Public Affairs Jillian Coffey said it’s especially helpful that the bill looks a few years down the road, so that companies can plan to make upgrades.

“This bill…puts money in the hands of these companies that have been pushed to become more environmentally friendly without there (previously) being any funding for it,” she said.

Incentives in the Act include new tax credits for commercial buildings, new homes, and electric vehicle charging stations that are energy efficient and bonus credits for businesses that pay “prevailing wages” as defined by the legislation.

Provisions of the Act also call for American-made equipment for clean energy production — which can be further incentivized if a company pays workers a prevailing wage.

Gorlov, like those watching national trends, also expects more companies operating abroad to return to U.S. soil. That could mean he and the team will be busy coaxing them to Aurora.

“We’ve been seeing companies bringing supply closer to where their customers are,” he said. “They might still keep things overseas, but economics gives them an opportunity to explore how to do more manufacturing here.”

Making health care more affordable

The act also caps the out-of-pocket cost of prescription drugs for Medicare recipients, extends federal health care subsidies, allows the government to negotiate the price of drugs for seniors and limits the price of a month’s supply of insulin for diabetics on Medicare to no more than $35.

While Bennet said he believed the caps on drug prices should be extended to other Americans as well, he called the victories over the pharma industry included the act “huge steps” toward making health care affordable.

“It’s critically important for the American people to have a public option, so if they decide they’d like something other than their private insurance, they can opt into a plan administered by Medicare,” he said.

Hickenlooper said he believed the move by the federal government to negotiate drug prices with pharmaceutical companies would lead to private insurance companies negotiating the cost of drugs down for their customers as well.

“I guarantee you: they will begin to negotiate as well,” he said. “Over time, that will be a significant savings.”

Costs around the home

Buying a new refrigerator, oven or even car can be difficult to swing for families that are already pinching pennies at the grocery store and gas station, but when it’s time to do so, choosing the eco-friendly option will be made easier with the Inflation Reduction Act.

Colorado’s congressional delegation says millions of low and moderate income households will be able to access rebates for new appliances, such as water heaters, heat pumps, dryers and kitchen appliances. The legislation says that to qualify for full rebates and discounts built into the bill, about $14,000 a year, household income must be below $176,700 for the Aurora area. That number is based on the requirement of 150% of median household income, determined by the federal government.

“This legislation makes these improvements as cheap or cheaper than their equivalents,” Congressman Jason Crow said.

Drought-affected basins

In a state built on the rush to find gold, water has emerged as the most precious resource these days. That goes for most southwestern states, whose lawmakers helped secure $4 billion for the Bureau of Reclamation in an effort to combat severe drought, especially along the Colorado River Basin.

Aurora and other cities have expressed concern about the increasing demand and dwindling supply on the river, with Aurora’s mayor describing the situation as one of the factors behind a sweeping water conservation measure that passed earlier this week.

“That’s going to be really important to Colorado farmers, and ranchers, and communities all across the state,” Bennet said of the $4 billion. He said billions more have also been set aside for wildfire mitigation and improving forest health.

Both have become important in the search for water sources for cities such as Aurora, which is expected to add tens of thousands of new residents in the coming years as more development pops up on large swaths of land to the east.

The bill’s namesake

And on the topic of inflation, Bennet and Hickenlooper said they thought the bill would help, or at least not hurt, the nation’s economy.

The country’s Consumer Price Index, which measures how the prices of common consumer goods and services change over time, was up 9.1% at the end of June compared to one year earlier, representing the largest jump in prices since 1981.

An estimate by the Congressional Budget Office indicates the act will reduce the deficit by $102 billion by 2031 but would have a “negligible” effect on inflation in 2022 and an uncertain but likely marginal effect on inflation in 2023.

Bennet was hopeful that reducing the national deficit would also flatten inflation.

“That right there takes money out of the economy and helps fight inflation by modestly increasing demand,” he said. He also called the country’s existing energy policy “inflationary,” adding that moving away from fossil fuels would enhance national security and help the country meet emission goals.

Hickenlooper said he believed investing in renewable energy and offering discounts on electric vehicles for working-class households would ultimately reduce the cost of living for Coloradans.

He also said the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania projected that the act would “slightly” reduce inflation over 10 years, although he didn’t know if they factored in all of the details of the act’s impact on renewable power.

“Worst-case scenario, it keeps inflation flat,” he said. “Best-case scenario, it reduces it by a point or two.”

Countdown to kickoff

THE 2022 FOOTBALL SEASON IS HERE WITH SIGNIFICANT CHANGES — ESPECIALLY IN THE COACHING RANKS — FOR AURORA PROGRAMS, WHO HAVE HIGH HOPES

The long wait is over, as Friday Night Lights have arrived in Aurora and around Colorado.

Those games will be sandwiched between Thursday and Saturday games — one of the realities of the struggles with a shortage of officials — but city teams will finallly get the chance to showcase their offseason preparation.

BY COURTNEY OAKES Sports Editor

It will be a new-look season for sure around the city, especially with significant turnover in the head coaching ranks, as six of the 11 programs have new leadership. Add that to the graduation of some significant talent and realignment and it should make for a fascinating season on the turf.

Here’s a brief look at each Aurora team ahead of the kickoff Week 1 Aug. 25:

AURORA CENTRAL

Wolf pack: Back row, from left, Max Kibbee, Zach Henning and Brody Robinson and front row, from left, coach Tom Doherty, Preston Emken Liam Szarka, Gibby Leafgreen and Mulamba Wa-Kalonji represented the Grandview football team at the Denver Broncos fall sports media day. The Wolves finished 10-3 and made the Class 5A semifinals last season. Gabriel Christus/ Denver Broncos

Coach Chris Kelly’s Trojans come in off a 2021 season that saw them go 8-3 and qualify for the Class 4A state playoffs. Aurora Central has a significant amount of veteran talent plus the most explosive backfield in town with seniors Cai’Reis Curby and Simeon Veasley, plus quarterback Nico Portillo behind an experienced line and a variety of skill players that contribute significantly. Aurora Central’s opponents went 45-56 in 2021.

CHEROKEE TRAIL

Justin Jajczyk takes over as head coach, but it should be a smooth transition as he served as the offensive coordinator under former coach Joe Johnson. Jajczyk helped the Cougars field one of the state’s most explosive offenses last season and will try to do so again with a new cast and Noah Greer as a holdover. Cherokee Trail expects to have a strong defense led by Kalib Davis and Ka-

din Porter. The Cougars have a daunting schedule as their opponents went 76-44 last season.

EAGLECREST

Mike Schmitt returns to the sidelines after he departed after the 2017 season in which he led the Raptors to the 5A state title game. Eaglecrest went 1-9 last season, but could get back on track quickly under Schmitt. Line play has long been a strength for the Raptors, but there has been heavy turnover on those units, including the graduation of two Division I players. Running back Diego Cearns is likely to reprise his role as a major offensive weapon. Eaglecrest’s opponents went 59-53 in 2021.

GATEWAY

Rico McCoy is at the helm and looks to turn things around for the Olys, who were winless in 2021. McCoy — who played four years of Division I football at Tennessee — came in from out of state and so did his offensive coordinator and will attempt to spark Gateway against a group of oppponents that went 37-65 in 2021.

GRANDVIEW

The Wolves made the deepest run of an Aurora team in 2021 when they advanced to the 5A semifinals in Tom Doherty’s first year as head coach. Grandview lost a significant amount of talent to graduation, but a expect to feature a ferocious defense led by linebackers Max Kibbee and Preston Emken, while Liam Szarka is back under center. The Wolves face a group of opponents that went 67-48 last season.

HINKLEY

Dennis York takes over the program after the tragic death of coach T.C. Newland just before the new year. The Thunderbirds — winless in 2021 — face teams that went 40-60 in 2021. York ex-

pects to lean on the play of his lines, while Tatum Starks should be an impact player on both sides.

OVERLAND

Kyle Reese’s Trailblazers went 5-5 last season and could improve on that with a schedule of teams that went 33-70 in 2021 ahead. Overland lost some key pieces to graduation, but a bevy of skill players should be a boon.

RANGEVIEW

Chris Dixon takes over the head job following Mike Holmes, who coached the team in two seasons in one calendar year. Rangeview ran the ball well last season and should do so again with holdovers Armani Patterson and DJ Collins-Boston. The Raiders face a group of opponents that went 52-54 in 2021.

REGIS JESUIT

Danny Filleman, Aurora’s long-tenured coach, led the Raiders to an 8-4 record last season and 5A playoff berth. To get there again, Regis Jesuit must get through a schedule of teams that went a whopping 92-34 in 2021. The return of Exander Carroll at quarterback is major.

SMOKY HILL

Brandon Alconcel takes over in the place of Tom Thenell, who headed to the college coach ranks after an impressive stint with the Buffaloes, who went 4-7 and made the 5A playoffs last season. Quarterback Tyliq Bowers has all five offensive line starters back in front of him and more than half the defense is back as well. Smoky Hill’s foes went 64-50 in 2021.

VISTA PEAK

DaVaughn Thornton Sr.’s Bison won seven games and made the 4A playoffs last season. Tone-setters Ezekiel Taylor and Nathan Hunholz hope to match or better that this season as Vista PEAK plays a schedule of opponents that finished 54-55 last season.

TAKE NOTICE that pursuant to section 37-90-107(7), C.R.S., and the Designated Basin Rules, 2 CCR 410-1, Epic Estates at Hutto LLC has applied for determinations of rights to allocations of designated groundwater from the Laramie-Fox Hills, Lower Arapahoe, Upper Arapahoe and Denver aquifers underlying 475.22 acres generally described as a portion of Section 10, Township 4 South, Range 64 West of the 6th P.M. The applicant claims ownership of this land and control of the groundwater in these aquifers underlying this property. The groundwater from these allocations is proposed to be used on the described property for the following beneficial uses: domestic, commercial, irrigation, stock watering, fire protection, piscatorial, recreation, industrial, fish and wildlife, and replacement.

In accordance with section 37-90-107(7),

the Colorado Ground Water Commission shall allocate groundwater from the above aquifers based on ownership of the overlying land. A preliminary evaluation of the application finds the volume of water available for allocation from the aquifers underlying the above-described property to be 11,000 acre-feet for the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer; 5,250 acre-feet for the Lower Arapahoe aquifer; 9,290 acre-feet for the Upper Arapahoe aquifer and 15,300 acrefeet for the Denver aquifer. These amounts are subject to final evaluation, and subsequent to issuance of the determinations, adjustment to conform to the actual local aquifer characteristics.

In accordance with section 37-90-107(7) (a), well permits issued pursuant to subsection 107(7) shall allow withdrawals on the basis of an aquifer life of one hundred years.

In accordance with Rule 5.3.6 of the Designated Basin Rules preliminary evaluation of the application finds the replacement water requirement status for the aquifers underlying the above-described property to be nontributary for the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer, nontributary for the Lower Arapahoe aquifer, nontributary for the Upper Arapahoe aquifer and not-nontributary (4% replacement) for the Denver aquifer.

Upon Commission approval of determinations of rights to the allocations, well permits for wells to withdraw the allocations shall be available upon application, subject to the conditions of each determination, the Designated Basin Rules, and approval by the Commission. Such wells must be completed in the aquifer for which the right was allocated and must be located on the 475.22 acres of the above described property.

Any person wishing to object to the approval of these determinations of rights to allocations must do so in writing, briefly stating the nature of the objection, the name of the applicant, a general description of the property, and the specific aquifers that are the subject of the objection. The objection, including a required $10 fee per application being objected to, must be received by the Colorado Ground Water Commission by close of business October 1, 2022. Objections should be sent via email to DWRpermitsonline@state.co.us, upon which the objector will be emailed an invoice for paying the fee online.
