Youth sports are a big deal and a rising cost that parents are willing to pay for

Tough talk on assault weapon bans turns to just more of the same this year

It seems that this brave new world is less than courageous when it comes to constraining no-limits gun zealots.

Again.

After a school-room filled with children were shot dead in Uvalde, Texas, and, more recently and closer to home, Club Q in Colorado Springs became the site of a gun massacre, the talk about gun control got tough.

Just like before.

Aurora, like the growing list of communities where gun massacres change everything, knows what this is about.

Even before the Aurora theater shooting, the horrific massacre at Columbine High School launched an effort to finally discard the revisionist history of Second Amendment extremists and enact meaningful, national gun control.

The passions were palpable and pervasive in the months after Columbine. I remember sitting in a Sentinel Editorial Board meeting with then-GOP Congressman Tom Tancredo as he explained his rationale — as a farright conservative — for supporting serious gun control measures.

Of course tough talk inevitably led to all talk and no legislation.

Year after year, shooting after shooting, members of Congress or the Colorado Legislature, promised that “this time,” after this shooting, after these senseless deaths, we would finally do something about the limitless profusion of guns.

The numbers don’t lie.

Every day, an average of 321 Americans are shot. Among those, research compiled by Brady United reveals that:

111 people are killed;

95 are intentionally shot and injured;

42 are murdered.

Every day.

The vast majority of Americans have continued to agree that meaningful gun control is needed to stem bloody gun massacres and daily injuries and deaths.

They still do. Poll after poll, year after year reveals a nation that sees the wisdom in reining in ubiquitous guns, including “so called” assault rifles.

And, inevitably, the millions of dollars of cash raised

by the gun lobby, to be wielded by lobbyists against anyone who dares to press for real gun reform, has quelled each and every attempt, including here in Colorado.

Even after Columbine, the Aurora theater shooting, the shooting at Arapahoe High school and a Boulder grocery store, guns win.

And this time, just months after the Club Q massacre in Colorado Springs, guns win as the Legislature now backs down from its own fleeting promises.

Again.

While lawmakers like Democratic Rep. Andrew Boesenecker said this is finally the time to ban assault rifles, the expected push back from gun lobbies changed all that.

Just like before.

This week, the promise of getting rid of the gun of choice for mass shooters and GOP Congressmembers Lauren Boebert and Ken Buck ended.

Data shows that these deadly military rifles carry a special allure for people who end up using them to shoot other people, rather than delinquent raccoons, which is what Buck insists rural residents use them for.

Instead of finally banning assault rifles, a proposed bill will now seek to ban only the sale of these deadly weapons.

But possession of such firearms in the state would still be allowed.

“We know that when we create space between the motive to do something horrific and the ready availability of a firearm with which to do that we save lives,” Boesenecker told the Colorado Sun this week.

Still, he caved to the Colorado gun nuts who’ve scared away support for the bill by fellow lawmakers.

Instead, Boesenecker’s bill would allow anyone to go get their assault rifle in neighboring states and bring them back to Colorado, or just keep the ones they already have.

Another year of brave talk and little more.

So, no, folks. The grisly violence we live with because of our obsession with guns, and our delusion over the fictionalization of the Second Amendment, continues. Maybe next time.

Stop protecting Aurora police from themselves

The state-required intervention into Aurora’s deeply troubled police department desperately needs an intervention.

In just the past few days, an Aurora officer was charged with punching a disabled woman in the face while he was off-duty in his apartment complex. A notorious Aurora cop who was protected from being fired after passing out drunk in his police car was promoted. And just days ago, the Sentinel learned that the equally notorious cop who quit the force after police body cam revealed his threats to Elijah McClain to have his police canine “dog bite” him, has been re-hired by APD.

That’s just the past few days.

Just over a year ago, after months of investigation, the Colorado Attorney General issued a scathing report, detailing how for years Aurora police have abused people of color they encounter, including each other. The attorney general determined there were systemic “patterns and practices” that not only permitted racist and abusive schemes and episodes, the department hid and covered them up, by design.

In the past year, the city has bungled an opportunity to reform the department and rebuild trust for a devastated community that — justifiably — fears for their lives when they encounter an Aurora police officer.

The city fired former police chief Vanessa Wilson, who pressed hard to enact reforms and rebuild the department.

The city then hired former chief Dan Oates, who made absurd and grossly perilous decisions in his brief tenure as interim chief to dismantle what little oversight exists in the department. He refused to discipline a high-level police commander, who with another police officer, were both tripped up in a criminal investigation after violating a restraining order — twice.

Oates fired and rehired a new officer who violated his promotion after being arrested for a drunken brawl in another state.

And the Sentinel reported last week it was Oates who approved the re-hiring of the cop who threatened McClain during sick and racist abuse of his position.

The accusation has been that APD is a club that protects its own — for those cops in favor of superiors — regardless of what’s right or wrong. Oates’ behavior only proved it to be true.

State Sen. Rhonda Fields expresses what most Aurora residents feel, and especially those people of color.

“The lack of judgment is just overwhelming, and it’s fatiguing,” she said of APD. “It’s more than a lack of judgment, it’s a culture that seems to be plaguing the APD and they’re rewarding by getting promoted or rehired. …We have to do something.”

Aurora Police now has its third chief in less than a year. Interim Chief Art Acevedo took the reins of the department in December, and has spent most of his time explaining how the department is filled with professional, compassionate and talented officers, and trying to explain how the department continues to make witless mistakes.

He’s so far blamed a system that is under mandate to change.

Acevedo told television reporters at FOX31 that the officer who told McClain his canine would “dog bite” him if he didn’t quit resisting the dog-pile of officers already on top of him that it was at one time approved police procedure to threaten subjects with dog bites.

You only have to watch how the officer handled the situation to see this was anything but standard police procedure, in places outside of Aurora.

Aurora needs to cease justifying horrific police behavior and decisions, and stop making these dangerous gaffes.

Acevedo deserves a chance to make good on promises to clean up this mess and at the same time ensure honest, competent officers are lauded for their good work — protected from the grisly behavior of what the public can only hope is a few.

“While actions of officers who violate their oath must be acknowledged and appropriately dealt with, it’s important to acknowledge the remaining majority who serve each and every day with honor,” Acevedo said in a tweet, responding to criticism by local lawmakers. “The decisions made by their leaders and rules set by others shouldn’t reflect on them.”

At the same time, the public shouldn’t have to depend on favorable odds every time they encounter an Aurora police officer. Successful police reform is not a crap shoot.

Acevedo and the city should immediately, transparently review every decision and change made by Oates and report what they find to the community.

Successful police reform, protecting the public and restoring trust won’t come from justifications. Acevedo must aggressively and transparently rectify the recent problems and controversies and set out a plan change, not rationalization.

Addressing ghost guns, weapons

Crime remains a serious issue in Colorado and we, as mayors of Colorado’s three largest cities, are committed to working with the state legislature and Governor on this issue in the upcoming legislative session. Here are some commonsense bipartisan suggestions.

Update the penalties for motor vehicle theft and help the police solve a greater number of cases.

Colorado currently is in the unenviable position of having the highest car theft rate in the country. Stolen cars are often used in the commission of other serious offenses, including robberies, burglaries, and drug dealing. Colorado statutes predicate the level of the offense based on aggravating factors and the value of the stolen car. As a result, stealing a car worth less than $2,000 is often a misdemeanor, regardless of how devastating and costly the theft is to the owner. This value-based approach is inequitable and unfair to victims who own older or less expensive cars. All car thefts, other than joy riding, should be felonies.

We also need to substantially improve the solution rate for car theft. One effective way to do that is the use of technology, like license plate readers. Such technology identifies stolen cars and helps police apprehend the thieves. State assistance to help communities purchase such technology would be a great help.

Reinstate the crime of possession of a weapon by a previous offender for car thieves and drug dealers.

We should be deterring unlawful weapon possession by prior felons. Someone convicted of felony car theft or drug dealing can’t legally pass a background check, so they should be sanctioned for possessing a weapon. Further, all possession of a weapon by previous offender crimes should be a class four felony.

Deter the use of ghost guns and personally manufactured weapons that are untraceable.

We are seeing a rise in the use of ghost guns in violent cases. Despite some stricter local regulations, Colorado’s state laws do not address the problem of people circumventing background checks by purchasing non-serialized firearms or unassembled parts. Currently, these guns can be obtained by those under restraining orders or even extreme risk protection orders. Our state laws should eliminate these gaps and provide a helpful backdrop for stricter local laws.

Raise the cap for juvenile detention beds in Colorado.

Detention beds for juveniles have been drastically reduced since 2003 (when there were 479). There are now only 215 detention beds for juveniles in the entire state. The result is that juveniles who commit violent offenses or who are a danger to themselves are often discharged into an unsafe situation that seriously jeopardizes their safety and public safety. The bed cap should be raised to at least 350 and the standard for detention should give judges more discretion to hold juveniles who pose a serious public safety risk, particularly those with repeat offenses.

These are just a few ideas. There are other issues that should also be addressed, and we look forward to working with our state counterparts to address Colorado’s crime rates in a meaningful way.

RENEWED DISTRUST

AURORA ACTIVISTS QUESTION CITY’S COMMITMENT TO REFORM AFTER RE-HIRING COP WHO THREATENED ELIJAH MCCLAIN WITH ‘DOG BITE’ DURING FATAL STOP

Local leaders and advocates say they’re disappointed and angered by the Aurora Police Department’s decision to re-hire a former canine officer who in 2019 helped restrain Elijah McClain and threatened to unleash a police dog on the 23-year-old Black man who died several days later as a result of the stop.

Matthew Green was hired back on Jan. 10 to the rank of patrol officer, according to city hiring documents obtained by The Sentinel through an open records request. Green is not one of the officers facing criminal charges in connection with McClain’s death.

“In my opinion, everyone that was there that night and did nothing to help my son stay alive are all accessories to my son’s murder,” Elijah’s mother Sheneen McClain, who said she was upset Green had been re-hired, told The Sentinel. “He’s an asshole for taking on the slave mentality of telling a person of color they’re going to be attacked by a police dog.”

Green arrived with several other officers at the scene as backup in north Aurora on Aug. 24, 2019, after McClain, who was illegally detained and had not committed a crime, had already been tackled to the ground, restrained and handcuffed by initial responders. An independent investigation of the stop shows that Green threatened McClain, saying he would use his police dog.

“Dude, if you keep messing around, I’m gonna bring my dog out; he’s gonna dog-bite you, you understand me? Keep messing around,” Green said to McClain. He can be heard making the threats on police camera video released by APD.

Shortly after that, the report said Green replaced officer Jason Rosenblatt in holding down McClain’s legs.

Green was first hired by APD in 2009 and left voluntarily in July 2021 to work in law enforcement for Douglas County, APD spokesperson Matthew Longshore said. He was on the K-9 unit from 2017 to 2020.

The news came following a week of controversy for APD. On Jan. 11, news broke that Nate Meier, the APD officer who was found passed out drunk behind the wheel of his police car and avoided criminal consequences in 2019, had been promoted to the rank of agent.

Also in the past two weeks, off-duty APD officer Douglas Harroun was arrested outside his home by Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office deputies for reportedly punching a disabled woman in the head during a dispute.

In August 2019, McClain was detained and placed in a chokehold during an encounter initiated by APD officers Rosenblatt, Randy Roedema and Nathan Woodyard. Paramedics Peter Cichuniec and Jeremy Cooper injected McClain with what investigators now describe as an overdose of the sedative drug ketamine while the 23-year-

old was handcuffed and restrained on the ground. McClain went into cardiac arrest and three days later was taken off life support.

McClain’s death sparked widespread calls for firing and criminally charging the officers and paramedics involved. A growing movement also pushed for reforming the department to address its treatment of people of color. The demands gained national attention in 2020 following the death of George Floyd and led to multiple state and federal investigations of APD.

In 2021, the city entered into a consent decree with the state Attorney General’s office, which requires APD to implement 70 different reform mandates meant to break a pattern of excessive force and racial bias.

In 2021, a state grand jury indicted five first responders for felony manslaughter and criminally-negligent homicide, in addition to lesser crimes. After a series of delays in the case, Woodyard, Rosenblatt, Roedema, Cooper and Cichuniec all pleaded “not guilty” Friday afternoon in Adams County District Court.

Green was not criminally charged in connection with McClain’s death, but he was named as a defendant in a 2020 lawsuit filed by McClain’s parents against the City of Aurora and 15 first responders. The lawsuit was settled for $15 million in 2021.

This screen grab from body cam footage shows the moment that Officer Green threatened Elijah McClain with getting his K9 unit from his patrol vehicle to “dog bite” McClain.

POLICE Man arrested for reported stabbing

Police have arrested a man they say stabbed to death a 24-yearold man Jan. 10 in a central Aurora parking lot.

Police are asking prosecutors for first-degree murder charges in the stabbing death of Zual James Noi Noi.

Police were called Jan. 10 at about 7:30 p.m. to an auto service store parking lot at 10955 E. Mississippi Ave. to investigate a stabbing.

“Once on scene, officers found a man suffering from apparent stab wounds,” Agent Matthew Longshore said in a previous statement. “He was pronounced deceased at the scene a short time later.”

This week, police accused Brandon Saguilan-Patricio, 27, of killing Noi Noi.

“Saguilan-Patricio was taken into custody without incident thanks to District 1 Patrol, the Direct Action Response Team (DART), APD’s K-9 Unit and the APD SWAT Team,” Longshore said.

Police said anyone with information who has not already talked to investigators 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.

Police arrest shooting suspect

Police say a 28-year-old man arrested yesterday is responsible for a June shooting death in Aurora and now faces first-degree murder charges.

Aurora police say Darrion Rouse, of Aurora, was the gunman in a June 20 car-shooting near East Alameda Avenue and South Jamaica Street.

The shooting occurred at about 8:30 p.m., according to police.

“When officers arrived on scene, they found an adult male in a gold VW Jetta suffering from an apparent gunshot wound,” police said in a former statement.

The man was later identified as Jeremiah Lashae Quashawn Cannady. His age was not disclosed. Cannady “remained in the hospital where he tragically succumbed to his injuries on June 23, 2022.”

“The Department’s Major Crimes Homicide Unit...has been working diligently since this homicide to identify anyone that was involved in this incident, Agent Matthew Longshore said in a statement. “We want to thank the dedication of the detectives assigned to this case and our Fugitive and SWAT Teams for finding and apprehending Darrion.”

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.

Hinkley shooting: teen pleads guilty

A 17-year-old charged as an adult for his role in a 2021 shooting at Aurora’s Hinkley High School pleaded guilty last week to attempted second-degree murder, according to court records.

Larry Jefferson is one of three teen boys charged in connection with the shooting, which injured three students and sent others fleeing for their lives. Charges against a fourth teen were dropped in June 2022.

Other charges against Jefferson — including four counts of attempted first-degree murder and other, less serious crimes — were dropped. Jefferson was named publicly along with the other defendants due to the nature of the charges and the seriousness of the alleged crime.

Police have said the shooting was gang-related and that the alleged shooters were armed out of fear that they would be jumped by members of a rival gang.

Jefferson is scheduled to be sentenced April 4.

Man sues Denver archdiocese

A man who says he was repeatedly sexually abused as a teen by his Catholic priest more than two decades ago filed a lawsuit against the now-defrocked priest and the Archdiocese of Denver on Thursday, taking advantage of a recently passed law that allows victims to sue even if the statute of limitations has expired.

The lawsuit targets Timothy Evans, a priest convicted in 2007 of sexually abusing other teens in two Colorado counties around the same time frame. The Vatican laicized Evans, essentially removing him from the priesthood, while he was in prison. He was paroled in 2020 with plans to live with family and find work in Grand Junction, Colorado.

The lawsuit was filed in state court by Scott Verti, alleging about 100 instances of abuse while he was an altar boy at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church in Fort Collins from 1998 to 2003. Verti, 38, was between the ages of 13 and 18 at the time.

The filing is allowed under a 2021 Colorado law that opened up a three-year window for people to pursue litigation for sexual abuse they suffered as children dating as far back as 1960. It’s part of a nationwide effort to make it easier for victims to seek justice later in life after they have had time to come to terms with what happened.

A spokesperson for the Denver

›› See METRO, 9

archdiocese, Kelly Clark, said it had not been served with the lawsuit or seen it yet but added that it does not comment on pending legislation. Evans could not be located for comment.

According to CHILD USA, an advocacy group in Philadelphia, over the past 20 years about two dozen states have extended their statute of limitations, or eliminated them going forward.

Some states have allowed claims to stretch back decades, with New York, California and New Jersey among those allowing sex abuse claims to be pursued, regardless of how much time has elapsed.

Until the law was changed in Colorado, victims of childhood sexual abuse only had until the age of 24 to file lawsuits against abusers and had to file lawsuits by the time they turned 21 against employers of alleged abusers.

When he was 24, Verti said he was not in a place where he could talk about what had happened to him, let alone file a lawsuit. He said he was deep in the throes of addiction that developed as the result of the abuse. Verti alleged that Evans told him that no one would believe him if Verti reported the priest’s actions.

Verti said the abuse caused him to be diagnosed with chronic insomnia at 14 and prevented him from maintaining long-term relationships of all kinds. He said he wasn’t able to process what had happened until his mid-30s, following therapy. Then, after learning that Evans was released from prison early, Verti said he wanted to speak up for other victims after staying quiet for so many years.

“It allows me to right this regret about not coming forward,” Verti, who is now engaged, said of his lawsuit.

The Associated Press does not normally identify victims of sexual assault but Verti filed the lawsuit under his name and agreed to be identified publicly.

Evans was investigated by law enforcement after three victims stepped forward starting in 2003 — a year after the Catholic church sexual abuse scandal exploded in Boston after being exposed by The Boston Globe — to report abuse several years before.

Verti’s lawsuit alleges the archdiocese is at fault because it knew of the risk posed by Evans even before he was ordained a priest in 1993, citing conclusions from a 2019 review of the archdiocese’s records commissioned by Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser. According to Weiser’s report, Evans was sent home early from the North American College in Rome after fellow students at the seminary reported that Evans made them uncomfortable and one of them later told the archdiocese’s vicar of clergy that Evans had sexually harassed him.

APD officers deny wrongdoing

A group of police officers and paramedics pleaded not guilty last week to charges stemming from the role they are accused of playing in the death of Elijah McClain, a 23-year-old Black man who was forcibly restrained and injected with the powerful sedative ketamine.

They were indicted by a state grand jury on manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide and other charges in 2021. Two years earlier, McClain died after being stopped while walking down the street in Aurora. A 911 caller had reported a man who seemed “sketchy.”

An amended autopsy report released last year concluded that McClain would have most likely survived but for the administration of a dose of ketamine that was higher than recommended for someone his size. However, the manner of McClain’s death was still listed as undetermined, not a homicide.

McClain’s death fueled renewed scrutiny about the use of the ketamine and led Colorado’s health department to issue a rule limiting when emergency workers can use it.

Experts in emergency medicine say prosecutions of paramedics are rare. However, in Illinois, two paramedics who strapped a Black man facedown on a stretcher after police requested an ambulance last month have been charged with murder.

Police officers Randy Roedema, Nathan Woodyard and Jason Rosenblatt, and fire department paramedic Jeremy Cooper and Lt. Peter Cichuniec all pleaded not guilty during a hearing in Adams County District Court in Brighton. They did not say anything about the allegations.

A grand jury indicted them after Democratic Gov. Jared Polis ordered Attorney General Phil Weiser to open a criminal investigation into the case. There had been renewed national interest in McClain’s death as protesters rallied over the killing of George Floyd in 2020. In 2021, the city of Aurora agreed to settle a lawsuit brought by McClain’s parents for $15 million.

On Jan. 18, 17th Judicial District Judge Mark Douglas Warner ruled that there will be three separate trials in connection to the indictments because each group played separate roles in McClain’s death. Roedema and Rosenblatt and Cooper and Cichuniec will be tried as pairs and Woodyard will have his own trial. Woodyard alone placed McClain in a carotid control hold, which Warner said could have injured McClain and contributed to his death in a unique way.

The three separate trials will ensure that the case, which has already had multiple delays, extends well into the year. Lawyers for Rosenblatt and Roedema estimated that their trial would take about three weeks, along with mul-

tiple days for jury selection due to the high-profile nature of the case.

At the hearing all five defendants agreed to extend their right to a speedy trial, which typically is a sixmonth period, for an extra one to three months.

Rosenblatt and Roedema’s trial is scheduled to start on July 11, Cooper and Cichuniec’s on August 7 and Woodyard’s not until September 18. At the hearing prosecutors said they specifically want to try the cases in that order.

Warner denied requests by the defendants’ lawyers to postpone the arraignments due to the amount of discovery that has continued to

be submitted in the case, which runs into the thousands of pages. Prosecutors argued that much of it is repetitive information that the defense has already received.

Warner also ruled that the defense attorneys have 56 days after Friday’s hearing to submit any further motions they plan to make. To read more of this story, visit www.sentinelcolorado.com — THE ASSOCI-

Judge awards Jurinsky $3m

An Arapahoe County judge has ordered the former partner of fired Aurora police chief Vanessa Wilson to pay $3 million in damages to City

Council member Danielle Jurinsky, who was falsely accused of abusing her toddler son.

At the time, Robin Niceta worked for the Arapahoe County Department of Human Services and was intimately involved with Wilson. The day after Jurinsky criticized Wilson on a regional talk radio show, in January 2022, Niceta allegedly called the county anonymously to allege that Jurinsky had sexually abused her own son.

County investigators looked into the tip and determined it was unfounded. Police later traced the call to Niceta, who was charged with retaliation against an elected official, a sixth-degree felony, and making a false report of child abuse as a man-

datory reporter, a second-degree misdemeanor.

Jurinsky filed a separate civil lawsuit against Niceta in August for libel, slander and extreme and outrageous conduct.

After receiving no response, in October, the court granted a default judgment against Niceta, ruling in December that she owed Jurinsky $3 million in damages for “harm to reputation, humiliation and emotional distress” as well as to dissuade similar behavior in the future.

The damages include $100,000 for each of the 15 days the county investigation into Jurinsky was open on top of an additional $1.5 million, in part to “send a message that (this) kind of conduct cannot and should not be tolerated by anybody.”

“(T)he Court finds that the con-

duct was especially egregious since it was done by a person tasked with protecting children and knew full well that her false report would result in an investigation and potential separation of a young vulnerable child and a parent, with unknown potential harm to that child,” 18th Judicial District Judge Elizabeth Volz wrote in her ruling.

The ruling was first reported Friday by a CBS Denver reporter. Jurinsky did not immediately respond to a request for comment, and Niceta was not available for comment.

The criminal case against Niceta will continue March 30 with a motions hearing. Niceta pleaded not guilty to the charges against her in December.

APD hiring is conducted by the city’s Civil Service Commission, which is responsible for the hiring and discipline of police officers and firefighters independent of the respective agencies. The commission has faced criticism in the past by police reform advocates for overturning firing or discipline decisions made by the police chief. Under the terms of the consent decree it must make as much of the disciplinary process public as possible and change the hiring process so new recruits meet with their hiring agency sooner.

Longshore said Green applied for reinstatement during the tenure of interim chief Dan Oates, who preceded current interim chief Art Acevedo. He said Oates “endorsed” Green’s reinstatement and forwarded the matter to city management, and that the Civil Service Commission ultimately signed off on Green’s hiring.

“Officer Green was within the allowed timeframe for reinstatement to APD,” Longshore said. “He will be assigned to patrol after he completes the reintegration process.”

Longshore did not answer how the department would respond to critics of the decision to welcome back one of the officers involved in the incident.

He noted that Green was not one of the officers charged in connection with McClain’s death, and said that Green had been given “a formal reprimand” by then-chief Nick Metz for a comment he made at the scene. Metz said at the time that Green was a “good officer who made a mistake.”

People who have pushed for more transparency and accountability within the police department say otherwise.

“There is nothing wise about rehiring a cop who threatened a Black man with his life using a dog,” community activist Candice Bailey said in response to learning of Green’s re-hiring. “That man has blood on his hands.”

The use of police dogs as a form of “pain compliance” has been controversial for decades,

going back to at least Jim Crow years. Recently, a variety of activist groups have criticized the use of threatening injury by police dogs or actually inflicting it as a racist move targeted primarily at people of color, according to sources who talked to the Washington Post in a Sept. 2, 2020 essay, citing Green’s threat against McClain.

Bailey was a key part of numerous Elijah McClain protests over the past two years and served on the Community Police Task Force, which was established to recommend changes to the police department in the wake of McClain’s death. She said the yearold consent decree was meant to address overly aggressive tactics like the ones used during the encounter with McClain.

“This just shows APD doesn’t care about the Black and brown people in this community,” she said.“How dare they…This fight is not over.”

Aurora NAACP President Omar Montgomery echoed concerns about the re-hiring under the consent decree, a court order to reform several aspects of the department. He said it illustrates foundational problems plaguing the department: a lack of transparency, and willingness to rebuke abusive and racist officers.

“This is exactly why there isn’t a need for just a consent decree, but the need for a truly independent monitor,” Montgomery said.

He said repeated decisions like this made by the city and police department not only undermine trust in the community, but it sullies the reputation of “the hard-working officers on the police department who are doing excellent work in the community.”

Montgomery said, “We need the best officers in Aurora, and not just officers who need a job and come in and destroy the relationship between the force and the community.”

Interim chief Art Acevedo has not responded to multiple requests for comment from The Sentinel.

Robin Allen is so used to her Rangeview team winning the annual Aurora Public Schools Championship girls swim meet that she knows a celebratory dip in the pool is coming.

Allen — in her second stint as head coach of the Raiders — came to her home pool Jan. 22 prepared for the very likely chance that the Raiders would win the 33rd annual gathering with the Aurora Central, Gateway and Hinkley for the 19th straight time.

“Even though we almost have that guarantee just based on the size of our team, we are always so supportive of the other schools. ...This is my favorite meet, everyone is so nice to each other and cheering for everybody. I’ve always loved that part.”

There was plenty to cheer about on the Rangeview side in terms of performances.

“I remembered to bring an extra set of clothes this time,” Robin Allen joked. “A lot of people had really great swims, some of the splits on the relays were fantastic and the girls just really pushed themselves.”

Junior Kateland Rodriguez, sophomores Hailey McDonald, Shemiah Turner and Bella Gonzalez and freshman Fernanda Recio also won events for Rangeview, which also took two of the three relays.

The Raiders — who haven’t been beaten at the meet for the last two decades with the 2021 meet lost to the coronavirus pandemic — still find great pleasure in winning, but moreso in the meet with its overwhelming sense of camaraderie among the teams.

“We’re a big team, so we usually have a lot of

breaststroke after she took the 200 yard individual medley last season) and McDonald repeated as the district champion in diving.

Kayla Allen earned her first two APS titles when she bested three other teammates in the 100 yard butterfly after she eased to the 200 IM title.

“The fly was what I was most proud of because the competition was very close and I think I did very well for being really tired,” Allen said. “I really pushed myself.”

Rodriguez took the 200 freestyle, Turner claimed the 100 — with a win by just 0.11 of a second over teammate Daveah Archibeque — and Recio claimed the 500 as Rangeview showed its strength in every area.

The Raiders might have had a clean sweep of the events, but both of its teams were disqualified in the meet-opening 200 medley relay (as was one of the Hinkley teams), which made the Aurora Central team of of Persais De Haro, Audrey Sandoval, Bernice Guerrero and Lizzett Mireles the APS champions in the event.

Coach Beth Himes’ runner-up Hinkley team — which swam without graduated Alyssa Lutz, a two-event winner at the meet in 2022 — got two championship finals appearances from Vicky Castellon and Janelle Hawley, plus a third place from Lizzie Baker in diving.

“I think we had a good meet,” Himes said. “It was the first time a lot of my girls had been to a championship-type meet, so it was good for them to experience it.

Gateway had a runner-up in the 200 yard individual medley in junior Fenix D’Zorn, who also swam on all three of the Olys’ relays, including the 200 medley and 400 yard freestyle teams that finished as runners-up.

Aside from the championship in the 200 yard medley relay (in which it dropped three seconds from prelims), Aurora Central got two championship finals swims from Guerrero and De Haro.

The APS Championship meet took place a week earlier than usual due to a change in leagues for Hinkley and Rangeview, which were part of the now-defunct EMAC last year, but have since moved into the City League (formerly the Denver Prep League).

Per its tradition, the City League holds “A” and “B” League meets on consecutive weekends — the same way the Centennial and Continental leagues do — while the EMAC used to conduct just a single championship meet.

The City League “B” and “A” League meets will be held at Hinkley.

Complete faith

FOX ARTS CENTER ONE-WOMAN SHOW WEAVES TRAGEDY, MIRTH AND MENACE INTO A RIVETING AND REWARDING SHOW

BY CARINA JULIG, Sentinel Staff Writer

If you want to get people’s attention, start with a joke.

That’s what Faith, the protagonist (and sole performer) of the Aurora Fox Arts Center’s latest play, was always told by her mother. “acts of faith” puts that adage to good use, making a play that you might expect to be serious to the point of discomfort due to its subject matter laugh-out-loud funny on numerous occasions.

This one-woman play follows Faith (played by Betty Hart, who also does excellent imitations of her character’s family and friends throughout the play), a teenage Catholic girl in the Zambian city of Kitwe. After Faith pretends to have received a message from God to defuse an argument between two friends she earns the admiration of her community, but the ire of her devout mother who knows the truth. The situation darkens when Faith has a run-in with a missionary priest in a neighboring city who turns out to be more of a predator than a protector to his flock. As her teenage years continue, Faith goes from Zambia to Toronto where some of the same problems find her again.

Can Faith regain her mother’s trust and use her “powers” to keep others safe from this man? This play wrestles with intense themes, including strained parent-child relationships, gaining and losing religious faith and clerical sexual abuse, but it still manages to keep a light tone. It’s the first play since the beginning of the pandemic that’s staged in the Fox’s studio theater, lending the production a more intimate feel.

Written by Canadian playwright David Yee, “acts of faith” was never intended for the stage, according to a director’s note from Pesha Rudnick. It was initially staged as a virtual performance in 2020. Former Aurora Fox director Helen R. Murray watched and convinced Yee to allow the Fox to perform live.

“To the believer, faith gives us a story that keeps us going, helps us navigate the hard questions,” Rudnick said. “To the skeptic, faith is how we avoid them. As this play beautifully illustrates, there’s a believer and skeptic in us all and life evokes one or the other, sometimes in the same day, depending on what

she throws at us.”

As Rudnick writes, it’s the kind of play that evades easy interpretation. Without giving anything away, the ending has a somewhat ‘deus ex machina’ feel that may leave you scratching your head as to what exactly just happened (as some people in the audience were doing after this performance). Whether Faith truly has divine powers is ultimately in the eye of the beholder. After all, the suspension of disbelief engendered by live performance is also an act of faith.

Hart has directed a number of plays in recent years but due to the pandemic this is her first time acting since 2019, according to the playbill. Even so, she didn’t appear to be rusty. Pulling off a solo performance for 90 minutes is no small feat, and Hart did an excellent job of holding the audience’s attention throughout and hitting all the different emotional beats. Hopefully this isn’t the last time she’ll be seen at the Fox.

The special effects are less dramatic than they have been on some of the Fox’s recent mainstage plays, but the real standout of this production is the theater’s use of sound effects at key moments. One of the most nerve-wracking moments of the play is set to the amplified noise of a pounding heart, and it felt like everyone in the audience was collectively holding their breath until the noise stopped.

Moving lighting effects are also deployed well at key moments. The stage’s beautiful backdrop changes color with the light, providing a cathedral-like look to the small space.

This play does have some intense moments due to the nature of its subject matter. It includes a brief scene of an attempted sexual assault, but is not graphic and would probably be appropriate for mature teenagers and up.

Next up in the Fox’s lineup is another one-woman play in the studio theater: the dramatic adaptation of “The Year of Magical Thinking,” Joan Didion’s stunning memoir about her husband’s death. After that, the Fox will return to the main stage for the final two productions of the season: “Toni Stone,” an original play about a women’s baseball team and a musical version of “Treasure Island.”

Worried that you missed this last weekend due to the weather? Well, ya didn’t. Dry Dock was kind enough to reschedule this event to this coming weekend. So, let’s throw back a few beers and swing around some golf clubs, eh? Dry Dock is running their annual Can Bash for a third year!

This unique event will give hop heads a unique opportunity to smash full, or relatively full, cans of low-fill or expired suds with provided woods and irons.

It’s being described as Top Golf meets a destruction room, all mashed up with one of Colorado residents’ favorite topics of which to feign omnipotence… Craft beer.

Reservations are $30 and that gets you 50 minutes on the “driving range,” a table for up to six people and three cases of low-fills or expired beer. That said, you can be rest assured that the barley pops that will be sacrificed are unavailable to be sold to the public in any other capacity. Waste not want not, right people?

Compared to bingo, Loteria, which translates to lottery in English, is a traditional game of chance where in lieu of balls with numbers on them, the game uses images on cards, with every image having a name associated with it.

There’s a pretty rich history behind the card game, dating back to the 16th century, and is told to have been made popular after the printing of Don Clemente’s version being distributed to Mexican soldiers with their rations, as well as showing up at fairs throughout Mexico.

COSTLY COMPETITION

Rising costs for everyday life put the viability youth sports at risk for some families, but many stay committed to benefits

Inflation has tilted the playing field for many in life, but the ripple effect is also felt on the actual field.

Having kids in youth sports is a way of life for so many families in Aurora and around the country, which makes the consistent rise in prices for things such as eggs, gas, utilities and everyday staples put extra strain on budgets.

A youth sports industry that generated around $20 billion nationwide prior to the coronavirus pandemic according to a survey cited in a recent story by the Associated Press is at stake, as with everything else coming at greater expense, it has forced real examination of its value — and practicality — to those involved.

Real economic decisions must be made, but many families find so much value in athletics and competition that they would only get out of it as a last resort.

For some, sports is what the family revolves around and enjoys most, while for others, it is the life lessons, work ethic or the ancillary benefits of being part of a team and learning how to handle success and failure that make it a crucial part of development.

And for still others, it is something that is vital in keeping their children away from the snares of idle time that catch many young people.

The motivations and paths for each family are all different and the formula has many variables, which make the monetary threshold for each family — as long as they have the resources — adjustable.

Sometimes the goalposts must be moved.

The older generation never had to pay so much for sports — nor did so many opportunities exist previously — so it gives them pause when they get the bills for what it could cost these days. Many will do whatever they must.

“I had a very modest childhood compared to what kids have these days and it’s just astronomical how much these experiences can be,” said Pam Dailey, whose daughter, Paige, is a senior on the girls swim team at Aurora’s Grandview High School and has earned a Division I scholarship in her sport.

“But when your kid is living their dream, you find a way to do it,” she added.

“WHEN YOUR KID IS LIVING THEIR DREAM, YOU FIND A WAY.”

- PAM DAILEY, PARENT OF GRANDVIEW SWIMMER PAIGE DAILEY

So many things add up quickly

According to a recent story from the Associated Press, in a study conducted before inflation entered the equation in the past year, American families on average spent around $700 per year for their kids’ sports.

The majority of those things were for equipment as well as travel related to those respective sports.

Those numbers have been blown out of the water currently, however, as the annual inflation rate for the 12 months ending last September was 8.2%

“Costs of uniforms and equipment, along with facility rental, are shooting up — all products of the onslaught of supply-chain issues, hard-to-find staff, lack of coaches and rising gas and travel costs that were exacerbated, or sometimes caused, by the COVID-19 pandemic that disrupted and sometimes canceled seasons altogether,” the AP wrote.

The story also quoted a study published by The Aspen Institute — an organization that issues an annual State of Play analysis of national trends in youth sports for children ages 6-18 — that said on average across all sports, parents spent more on travel (an average of $196 per child, per sport) than any other facet of sports. With the prices of airline tickets and hotel rooms skyrocketing, those numbers have likely grown as the calendar flipped to 2023.

Not every family has a child or children who travel for athletics, but it is a very real part of the equation for many and often can force tough decisions. Also in play in the overall picture is specialized equipment (some of which has to be custom made for individual athletes), personal coaching, fitness training, team or club fees and the cost of potential injury.

All those things add to a bottom line that is already hefty in terms of providing basic needs for kids and teenagers. And there is certainly no guarantee that the hard work an expense will pay off in a scholarship or anything more than just activity and life lessons. Yet that still makes it worthwhile for many.

Here are the stories of some youth and prep athletes from Aurora and how they have handled the ever-changing costs of their respective sports:

It can start young

Most parents try to be discerning and pick the right time to invest when their children show a dedication to a sport that goes beyond fun.

Sometimes it comes early, like for the Clark family, whose daughter, Haylee, is a member of the girls golf team at Cherokee Trail High School.

“When she was nine, Haylee made the U.S. Kids World Championship Tournament at Pinehurst, so we knew she was pretty good,” Silka Clark said.

Athletics have played a major role in the family, as Silka’s husband Chris, a Gateway High School graduate, played at various levels of minor league baseball for more than a decade. An older son played football at Cherokee Trail and a younger one that has just entered the expensive world of youth hockey.

Haylee, meanwhile, started hitting balls at the range when she was three and began to compete at six after she had tried other sports. The Clarks began to pay for travel tournaments — though most of her play is in Colorado, the entry fees are around $150 for a one-day tournament and nearly $300 for two.

Then, there is equipment, which in golf can be a prohibitive cost. Kids are especially challenging given that growth requires different clubs and for Haylee, some must be custom made as she is left-handed.

Silka estimates Haylee has “like $2,000 worth of clubs in her bag right now,” but she is thankful that her daughter’s growth has slowed and the clubs have lasted two years. Once in high school, the family paid the Cherry Creek Schools’ $90 athletic fee plus about $500 for the season (which included her bag, uniform and greens fees). Haylee made the varsity team and helped the Cougars qualify for the Class 5A state tournament in 2022.

Still, Silka estimates they are still “in the lower middle class range as far as golf goes. Most of the kids she went to worlds with have private swing coaches and they are home schooled so they can play more. We don’t live on a golf course, either.”

While her husband is hopeful that Haylee will get a scholarship offer, Silka is focused on the other benefits.

“Right now, she wants to play and as long as she wants to play, we’ll keep supporting her,” Silka said. “I do think she’s good enough to play in college at some level, but there may be a different path for her. ...The nice thing is she can play golf until she’s 90.”

A family bonded by ice

Denise and Ron Balatbat enjoyed going to hockey games when they were dating and when they eventually got married and had a family, they thought it might be something their kids would enjoy.

Little did they know.

The Balatbats now have five boys and all of them have been on the ice at one time or another. The three oldest have been members of the varsity team at Regis Jesuit High School — including current senior Cameron — while the two youngest have since turned to basketball.

It began with inline hockey for their older boys and once it reached the ice, the Balatbats became well ac-

ABOVE: Senior forward Cameron Balatbat (27) is the third member of his family to play for the Regis Jesuit High School ice hockey team. Hockey has been a focal point of his family — which has five boys — for many years at a considerable cost given the outlay required to play a sport that is an expensive because of the scarcity of ice time, equipment and potential travel.

quainted with the costs associated with one of the most expensive sports for kids to play. So far, the price hasn’t been too great to keep the family involved.

“Hockey is such a great sport,” Denise said. “It has just always been something our family does. It’s our bonding time.”

The reason for the expense in hockey is severalfold, beginning with the scarcity of the playing surface. No school has its own ice rink, so getting time to practice and play requires the use of public facilities, which don’t come cheap and sometimes require inflexible hours of use. Fortunately, it is a team sport, so the cost is shared.

The cost to play club hockey can run between $2,000$3,000 and can go up significantly at the higher levels, as more ice time is required for practice and teams travel more as they seek top competition in other states.

And then, there’s equipment.

In high school, players typically receive only a uniform from their programs. After that: a quality pair of ice skates can run $800 or more, a lot of pads are required and sticks — which have evolved in terms of engineering and composition over the years to get tougher — usually range between $200-$300. And they break way more often than anybody, especially those paying to replace them, would like.

“It hurts (when you hear a stick break),” Ron said. “I’ve told our kids you don’t have buy the most expensive sticks. A couple of our sons had expensive sticks and weren’t performing, so they used their backup sticks and then they were. I think it might be psychological. Like the kids think ‘I need the Alex Ovechkin stick,’ but they really don’t.”

In America, hockey is also different from many sports in that a college scholarship is very, very rare.

Some of the most talented players can go on to play at the junior level in Canada, but for the majority, the last time they hang up their skates for club or high school team is the last time they compete on the ice other than maybe an adult rec league.

The end of Cameron’s season — which is currently ongoing as he is part of a Regis Jesuit team that is ranked No. 3 in the state — is likely to be the swan song for the family on the ice, but it has done so much for them.

“It has helped build their character for sure and it is big on life lessons,” Denise said. “They learn a lot of discipline and a lot of grit. They have to put in hard work at school to play on the team, so it is a motivation to do well at school and do well at home.”

The Balatbats have discovered that AAU basketball is also costly, but courts are plentiful and shoes are much less expensive than skates. And there are no sticks to break.

Diamond dreams come at a price

Luis Martinez enjoyed watching his daughter, Jaelyn, dance at a high level as a child.

Clearly talented from a young age, she danced at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts and traveled

across the country many times for competition in what Martinez called a “gauntlet,” both in terms of price, demand and commitment.

At the age of 11, Jaelyn tried summer softball — something near and dear to Luis’ heart as a longtime player, coach and instructor — and she fell in love. She traded in the dance shoes for cleats and eventually told her dad that her dream was to play the sport in college.

As owner of 5280Fastpitch — which offers individual instruction — as well as an assistant coach with the Colorado Batbusters Brown 14A competitive team, Luis knew exactly the costly path that would require, but he was willing to help her travel along it.

“When a kid says they want to go to college and play the game, it’s like OK, here’s what you have to do,” Luis said. “You start looking at high level hitting coaches and strength and conditioning. Then they need to make their high school varsity team and play that season and competitive seasons, where you incur a lot of travel expenses.

“Pricing is definitely starting to play a role and high level softball really is a luxury sport.”

Part of that reason is because softball is a sport that is played on a team level, but requires a lot of work on individual skills outside the team to compete a high level.

Working against Colorado softball players is the weather, which limits the playing window to 7-8 months,

ABOVE: Jaelyn Martinez gave up competitive dance for softball at the age of 11, and she achieved her dream of playing her sport in college and she earned a scholarship at Division II Chadron State in Nebraska. With her father, Luis, guiding her, she played four years of varsity softball at Cherokee Trail High School and also committed to the rigors of competitive club softball.

as it does with several other outdoor sports. While softball players in places like California, Florida and Texas can play year round, Colorado players often have to head to warmer places to play.

Competitive softball teams typically run between $2,000 and $3,500 per season, with teams on the lower end playing most tournaments around Colorado and the higher end teams going elsewhere, which also may require even more outlay for travel expenses. Bats, gloves and cleats all cost in the hundres for quality on top of that.

Jaelyn went through the grind of club softball and also played four years on the varsity team at Cherokee Trail. At the end of it all, earned a scholarship to play at Chadron State, a quality Division II program.

For Luis, the cost of helping her get there was never in question. He grew up poor in Commerce City and the benefit of sports became deeply ingrained in him when considered against the alternative.

“Sports saved my life, that’s why I am such an advocate of it now,” he said. “Kids that have materialistic problems, they don’t need to turn to sports. But kids from Commerce City, where I grew, it was sports or you were going to get in trouble. There are so many ways they help you to grow up.”

By land and by water

Pam Dailey has had vastly different athletic experiences with her daughters, Peyton and Paige, who both have gone through Grandview High School.

But the family is all about commitment. The girls were allowed to try different things growing up, but if they started them, they had to finish them.

So with that basic guideline, Pam didn’t mind spending the necessary money when Peyton got heavily into cross country and Paige became fully dedicated to swimming.

“It is all about commitment, when they are so serious about that and gaining self confidence and drive from their achievements, that’s when you support them most, especially when they are committed to doing more to improve and get better.”

Pam said the family was suprised when Peyton reached high school at the costs associated with participation. The Cherry Creek Schools’ $90 athletic fee doesn’t cover much, so there were extra expenses for quality equipment and training gear for her for three years.

When Paige got into swimming (which came after her interest got peaked by watching a club practice of the Colorado Stars, whose successful alums include Olympic goal medalist Missy Franklin) the costs of joining a club also included two or three travel trips — a surprise to Pam, who said she didn’t get on an airplane for the first time until she was 23 — but still didn’t deter the family.

To save costs, Pam worked the internet for the savings on quality gear (including tech suits, which can cost as much as $800 and generally need to replaced every year) and travel when necessary and Paige has done her part by making sacrifices in other areas of her life so as not to strain the family budget any further.

“I had a German grandmother, so I’m frugal and I am of the mind that you don’t waste anything,” Dailey said.

Paige has made the most of her own sacrifices and those of her family, as she earned a scholarship to swim at Division I UC-Davis, which received her verbal commitment over the summer. Before she gets there, Paige is in pursuit of the Class 5A state championship in her specialty stroke, the 100 yard breaststroke, and to help Grandview perhaps finish in the top five at the state meet in February.

The goal on the pitch

For many families, the idea of their child or children earning a scholarship to play in college and have their secondary education paid for is tantalizing.

Those opportunities are certainly possible, as Aurora has significant numbers of prep athletes who sign National Letters of Intent with schools ranging in size from massive Division I programs all the way down to some in NAIA, the smallest level of competition.

The chase for a scholarship is the motivation for some, but Will Cropper, Regis Jesuit’s longtime girls soccer coach and a teacher at the private high school, believes that families might actually sink more money into the pursuit of that hope than they might actually realize.

“The ironic thing is that if you put that money into a bank account instead of spending $1,000 every weekend for

training or travel, the kids could go to just about any college they want,” Cropper said. “For the lower end college tuitions, that could 100 percent be true. I’ve known players that have gone to a number of development camps and the cost of all those could rival some college tuitions.”

Cropper is facing his own cost realization with two young sons currently playing youth soccer.

His oldest son, Brody, is 11 and has been invited to play up an age group, which has brought with it the invitational to play in a variety of out-of-state tournaments. Each of those must be paid for individually — like a recent trip to Las Vegas — while next year, his club expenses are likely to hit the $5,000 mark, which includes a portion for coaching and training and a portion to go towards travel.

Cropper’s other son is two years younger and could be on the same track, setting the family up for a costly future if they both continue to play.

Cropper and his wife are having conversations about budget regularly, but for right now, they have made it work. Cropper said he has also entertained the idea of getting a summer job to help supplement the costs

of athletics and he is happy to do so.

“As long as it is still checking the right boxes, I’m in,” he said. “I think sports is an important part of their development in many ways.

“If you find the right coaches, team and people for your kids to be around, it will help them find the best versions of themselves.”

Affordable options exist

While some families can and will pursue the most competitive options for their children, The City of Aurora has some outstanding options for those looking to get their kids involved in new things or just to stay active in a way that won’t break the bank.

The city has a slew of opportunities for kids ages 3 to 18 in all seasons that range from t-ball/baseball/softball to basketball to soccer to tennis & racquet sports, track & field and volleyball that are all recreational in nature as opposed to competitive.

It’s a chance to explore a sport or multiple sports at a low cost and Todd Steinkamp, the city’s Sports Supervisor, said many families have their kids in Aurora rec leagues until they are 10 or 11 and then go seek more competitive alternatives if they so choose.

“We believe in equal playing time for all kids and we keep score in our games, but our end all philosophy is for the kids to have fun,” said Steinkamp, who has been with the city for 25 years and is one of its three full-time sports programmers.

“Wins and losses are not a priority, so our goal is that kids want to come back and play sports again, whether it is with us or elsewhere,” he added.

Some families also stay with the Aurora programs specifically because of the financial advantages. The cost to play in a city rec league ranges from $62 to $170 depending on the length of the season. That figure — which Steinkamp said ranks among the most low-cost in the metro area — takes care of securing officials (which is an escalating expense) and helping to replenish supplies for equipment, which athletes also have access to if they don’t their own.

The City of Aurora programs can keep fees down chiefly because of several things, including the use of volunteer coaches (who have to pass background checks and get training like all other coaches) as well as unique advantage in terms of facilities.

The youth programs can not only use city facilities such as the Aurora Sports Park and various other multi-use fields around the city, but they have arrangements with Aurora Public Schools and Cherry Creek Schools to use their gymnasiums and indoor facilities as well.

“We have a huge inventory of our own fields as well as great partnerships with the school districts, which not many places have,” Steinkamp said.

Best of all, Steinkamp said that families can apply for the city’s financial assistance program, which can lower fees based on household income — though he said that is a very small percentage of those enrolled currently — while there are also community partners who fund scholarships for kids in summer sports camps, which Steinkamp said have grown “dramatically” in registration in the last two years.

BEFORE THE COLORADO GROUND WATER COMMISSION DETERMINATIONS OF WATER RIGHT LOST CREEK DESIGNATED GROUNDWATER BASIN AND LOST CREEK GROUND WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT; KIOWA-BIJOU DESIGNATED GROUNDWATER BASIN AND NORTH KIOWA-BIJOU GROUND WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT - ADAMS AND ARAPAHOE COUNTIES

TAKE NOTICE that pursuant to section 37 90 107(7), C.R.S., and the Designated Basin Rules, 2 CCR 410 1, the Town of Bennett (“Applicant” or “Town”) has ap plied for determinations of rights to alloca tions of designated groundwater from the Laramie Fox Hills, Lower Arapahoe, Upper Arapahoe and Denver aquifers (“New De termination”).

Area F containing 1.5 acres generally de scribed as a portion of the NW1/4 of the NW1/4, Section 34, Township 3 South, Range 63 West, 6th P.M., Adams Coun ty within the Kiowa Bijou Designated Groundwater Basin.

For the Upper Arapahoe aquifer the Appli cant has applied for determination of rights to allocations of designated groundwater underlying 924.52 acres generally de scribed as five noncontiguous tracts:

Area A containing 415.18 acres generally described as a portion of Section 30, Town ship 3 South, Range 63 West, 6th P.M., Adams County within the Lost Creek Des ignated Groundwater Basin and the Lost Creek Ground Water Management District;

Area D containing 20.17 acres generally described as a portion of the SE1/4 of the SW1/4, Section 28, Township 3 South, Range 63 West, 6th P.M., Adams County within the Lost Creek Designated Ground water Basin and the Lost Creek Ground Water Management District; and

Area E containing 17.36 acres gener ally described as a portion of the N1/2 of the SW1/4, Section 34, Township 3 South, Range 63 West, 6th P.M., Adams County within the Kiowa Bijou Designated Groundwater Basin.

For the Denver aquifer the Applicant has applied for determination of rights to allo cations of designated groundwater under lying 865.18 acres generally described as four noncontiguous tracts:

Area C containing 304.01 acres generally described as a portion of Section 26, Town ship 3 South, Range 63 West, 6th P.M., Adams County within the Kiowa Bijou Des ignated Groundwater Basin and the North Kiowa Bijou Ground Water Management District; and

The Applicant claims the consent of the owners of this land to withdraw the groundwater from these aquifers underly ing this property. The groundwater from these allocations is proposed to be used for municipal (including but not limited to domestic, commercial, industrial, irrigation, stockwatering and recreation) and replace ment, either directly or after storage within the boundaries of the Town of Bennett’s municipal service area as those boundar ies currently exist or as they may exist in the future.

In accordance with section 37 90 107(7), the Colorado Ground Water Commission (“Commission”) shall allocate groundwater from the above aquifers based on owner ship 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 as follows:

From the Laramie Fox Hills aquifer 9,340 acre feet for Area A; 3,020 acre feet for Area B; 5,130 acre feet for Area C; 378 acre feet for Area D; 312 acre feet for Area E; and 27 acre feet for Area F.

From the Lower Arapahoe aquifer 3,530 acre feet for Area A; 1,370 acre feet for Area B; 3,430 acre feet for Area C; 171 acre feet for Area D; 177 acre feet for Area E; and 14 acre feet for Area F.

From the Upper Arapahoe aquifer 10,200 acre feet for Area A; 3,830 acre feet for Area B; 7,130 acre feet for Area C; 468 acre feet for Area D; and 413 acre feet for Area E.

From the Denver aquifer 9,690 acre feet for Area A; 3,700 acre feet for Area B; 6,460 acre feet for Area C and 320 acre feet for Area D.

The amount in the Upper Arapahoe aquifer and Denver aquifer represents a reduc tion in the volume of water available for allocation due to the existence of a small capacity well, permit no. 4527, withdrawing water from beneath the described property. These amounts are subject to final evalu ation, 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 sub section 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 Des ignated Basin Rules preliminary evaluation of the application finds the replacement water requirement status for the aquifers underlying the above described property

Upon Commission approval of determina tions of rights to the allocations, well per mits 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 924.52 acres of above described property. Well permits for wells to withdraw ground water from the Denver aquifer would also be subject to the conditions of a replace ment plan to be approved by the Commis sion.

TAKE NOTICE that pursuant to section 37 90 107(7), C.R.S., Town of Bennett has applied to change the allowed types of use, allowed places of use and allowed points of diversion of designated groundwater in the Laramie Fox Hills aquifer, Lower Arap ahoe aquifer, Upper Arapahoe aquifer and Denver aquifer allocated under the follow ing determinations and permits (“Existing Water Rights”):

1. Laramie Fox Hills aquifer Permit Nos. 48424 F & 48425 F, more particularly de scribed as follows:

In accordance with section 37 90 107(1) and § 37 90 111(5) C.R.S., the Commis sion issued the Findings of the Commis sion for Well Permit Nos. 48424 F and 48425 F on June 19, 1997, for the Town of Bennett (“Pre Determination Find ings”). The Pre Determination Findings allow an average annual withdrawal of 207 acre feet from the Laramie Fox Hills aquifer underlying the Town of Bennett, an area consisting of 1,205 acres gener ally described as part of the SW1/4 of the SW1/4 of Section 26, most of Section 27, part of the SE1/4 of Section 28, part of the NE1/4 of the NE1/4 of Section 33, part of the W1/2 and NE1/4 of Section 34, and part of the W1/2 and SE1/4 of Section 35, all in Township 3 South Range 63 West of the 6th P.M., Adams County (“Pre Determi nation Overlying Land”). Pursuant to the Pre Determination Findings, withdrawals of groundwater pursuant to the Pre De termination Findings must occur through the wells and any additional wells located on the overlying land and may be used for municipal use within the water service area of the Town of Bennett. The Applicant is seeking to change all water allocated by the Pre Determination Findings.

2. Lower Arapahoe aquifer and Upper Arapahoe aquifer water allocated by Deter mination of Water Right nos. 492 BD and 493 BD, respectively, more particularly de scribed as follows:

Pursuant to C.R.S. § 37 90 107(7), in the Findings and Orders dated June 16, 2004, the Commission approved Determination of Water Right Nos. 492 BD and 493 BD for Arden and Tam M. Intermill (“Intermill Determinations”). The Findings and Or ders determined a right to an allocation of groundwater in the Lower Arapahoe and Upper Arapahoe aquifers underlying 36 acres generally described as a por tion of the SE1/4 of Section 34, Township 3 South, Range 63 West of the 6th P.M., Adams County (“Intermill Overlying Land”). Pursuant to the Intermill Determinations, withdrawals of groundwater pursuant to determinations 492 BD and 493 BD must occur through wells located on the overly ing land and may be used for domestic, commercial, industrial, irrigation, stock watering and augmentation purposes on the 36 acres comprising the Intermilll Overlying Land. The allowed average annual amount of withdrawal allocated by Determination of Water Right nos. 492 BD and 493 BD are 4.3 acre feet per year and 5 acre feet per year, which based on an aquifer life of one hundred years results in an amount of groundwater allocated of 430 acre feet and 500 acre feet, respectively.
