2024 Saw the Enactment of Numerous New Housing & HOA Laws

The Colorado General Assembly passed and Gov. Polis signed many new laws regarding housing and how HOAs can operate. Here are some new laws that caught my attention:

HB24-1152: Concerning Increasing the Number of Accessory Dwelling Units — This law prohibits jurisdictions or HOAs in a metropolitan area from unreasonably restricting the construction of ADUs in single-family neighborhoods. It also prohibits the requirement that an owner occupy the ADU or the primary residence, and it prohibits requiring additional off-street parking if there is sufficient existing parking, including on-street parking. (Those are two current requirements of many jurisdictions’ ADU ordinances.) Affected jurisdictions are given until June 30, 2025, to submit a report to the state’s Department of Local Affairs demonstrating that they have complied with the law and that they have implemented one or more strategies to encourage and facilitate the construction or conversion of ADUs.

HB24-1007: Concerning Residential Occupancy Limits —The act prohibits counties and municipalities from limiting the number of people who may live together in a single dwelling based on familial relationship, while allowing local governments to implement residential occupancy limits based only on demonstrated health and safety standards, fire code regulations, etc.; or on local, state, federal, or political subdivision affordable housing program guidelines.

HB24-1173: Concerning Streamlining the Process for Permitting Electric Motor Vehicle Charging Systems

This law requires the Colorado Energy Office to publish by March 31, 2025, a model code for the installation of EV charging systems in counties over 20,000 population or municipalities over 10,000 population. The office must also provide technical assistance to counties or municipalities for the implementation of an expedited permitting process.

HB24-1337: Real Property Owner Unit Association Collections — This law limits the reimbursement amount which an HOA can charge for attorney fees to $5,000 or 50% of the original money owed when its takes collection action against a unit owner. For failure to obey the bylaws or rules of the association, the reimbursement for attorney fees is limited to $5,000 or 50% of the actual costs. The law also limits the ability of the HOA to foreclose on the unit, and provides for redemption by the unit owner and others, including the tenant, within 180 days after a foreclosure sale.

SB24-005: Prohibit Landscaping Practices for Water Conservation —

scribed size, location and wording of the sign is included in the bill.

HB24-1091: Concerning Prohibiting Restrictions on the Use of FireHardened Building Materials — This law generally prohibits covenants and other restrictions that disallow the installation, use, or maintenance of firehardened building materials in homes, including in HOAs. However, the law allows an HOA to develop reasonable standards regarding the design, dimensions, placement, or external appearance

HB24-1233: Homeowners' Association Delinquency Payments Enforcement Procedures — This law amends HB22-1137, which said that notices of delinquency must be posted on the unit’s door. Under this law, the HOA must send a certified letter to the unit owner and employ two other methods (phone call/voicemail, text message, or email) and must communicate in the preferred language of the unit owner and

Snapshot: Sept. 25-Oct. 1

Here are some key takeaways from the market activity during the 7-day period from Sept. 25th to Oct. 1st:

Denver metro area inventory appears to be stabilizing, with steady buyer activity, signaling a sense of balance in the market as we move from September into October.

Buyers who have been waiting for better market conditions are now finding more options available. Sellers are increasingly open to negotiating, making repairs, offering concessions, and accepting contingent offers to get deals done. This creates an excellent opportunity for buyers to take advantage of the increased negotiating power they currently hold, which may shift if rates drop and competition intensifies.

The number of active listings remained consistent compared to the prior 7-day period, though inventory is much higher than this time last year.

New listings increased both week over week and compared to the same period last year, while “coming soon” listings have dipped slightly. Pending transactions stayed fairly flat, and the market’s supply of inventory has held steady.

The odds of selling rose but remain below the historical average from prior years, reflecting ongoing market dynamics.

Showings decreased slightly from the previous 7-day period but are up compared to last year. Homes are spending more time on the market, allowing buyers more time to make informed decisions.

There was an increase in price reductions, with a larger percentage of homes lowering their prices before going under contract. The size of these price reductions has also increased.

To conserve water used for irrigation, this law, effective Jan. 1, 2026, prohibits local governments from allowing the installation, planting, or placement of nonfunctional turf, artificial turf, or invasive plant species on commercial, institutional, or industrial property, association property, or a street right-ofway, parking lot, median, or transportation corridor. Artificial turf for athletic fields is not banned, however.

SB24-058: Landowner Liability Recreational Use Warning Signs —

This law allows the owner of land with recreational access to protect himself or herself from liability for off-trail injury or death by posting a sign at the common entrance to the property. The pre-

SB24-134: Operation of a HomeBased Businesses — This law allows a unit owner (or tenant, with the unit owner's permission) to operate a home-based business in a unit owner’s unit. An HOA may no longer seek to enforce any covenant or restriction that would prohibit a unit owner from operating a home-based business. The operation of a home-based business must still comply with any applicable and reasonable unit owners' association rules or regulations related to architectural control, parking, landscaping, noise, nuisance, and other matters that may impact fellow HOA members. The operation of a home-based business must also comply with municipal and county noise and nuisance ordinances or resolutions.

SB24-145: Uniform Unlawful Restrictions in Land Records — Older CC&Rs (covenants) included unlawful restrictions on membership based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status, disability, or other personal characteristics. These are no longer enforceable, but they remain in those documents. This law creates the ability of any association to submit an amendment to the county clerk and recorder removing those provisions without a vote of the membership

Below are each candidate’s an-

swers in order of how they will appear on the ballot. Responses were edited for grammar and style.

DISTRICT 1

Pam Gillies

Did not respond to our inquiries.

Ryan Hollingshead

Do you support the sales tax increase the town put on the ballot? Why or why not?

I fully support the sales tax increase to allow us to increase our police and re sta ng in Castle Rock. Because our property tax for the town is under $60 a year for most residents, we must turn to sales tax to ll that gap. One of the reasons many of us moved to Castle Rock is because of how safe our town is and I believe this sales tax increase will help to maintain that high level of service and allow us to recruit the best to work here.

What are the top issues you would like to address as a council member?

We must make sure we address police and re funding in the future and need to ensure we sta our new re station and ambulance. Our residents deserve to live in a town with rst-class amenities. We need to continue to look for additional open space and get a new rec center open as soon as possible. Finally, I want to make sure that our town council does not get distracted by national and state partisan politics that can distract from the important local work we have ahead of us.

George Teal faces Angela Thomas for Douglas County commissioner seat

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Douglas County Commissioner George Teal, a Republican, faces Democratic challenger Angela omas in the district that formally covers Castle Rock and the southern portion of the county, including much of Douglas’ rural areas, in the November election.

e board of commissioners is the county’s policy-making body, approving Douglas’ annual budget and passing local laws that govern unincorporated areas, or those outside of city and town limits. is includes Highlands Ranch and many other parts of the county.

Both candidates spoke to Colorado Community Media ahead of the election, laying out their stances and what they want to do if elected.

Douglas County commissioners are elected at large from one of three geographic districts. is means commissioners are required to reside in di erent districts, but voters throughout the entire county cast ballots for each seat.

Teal was elected as a commissioner in 2020 and served six years on the Castle Rock Town Council. He has worked in the software and information technology eld. omas spent 20 years as a social worker and is a former chair of the Douglas County Democratic Party. Here’s what the commissioner District 2 candidates had to say on the high cost of living in Douglas County, water and other issues.

Democracy and good government

In Colorado Community Media’s recent survey sent to readers, many chose democracy and good government as an issue they think candi-

dates should focus on. CCM asked candidates how they would promote those ideals if elected.

“I’m in favor of making sure the clerk and recorder has what she needs to run fair elections here in the county,” Teal, the incumbent, said.

Teal also said he makes an e ort to always get to the communications he receives from residents.

“I take phone calls on my personal cellphone,” Teal said. “People think they’re leaving a voicemail and then they get me and they’re shocked.”

omas, the challenger, took issue with the county’s decision to move public comment — the part of commissioners meetings where members of the public can speak — to the end of the meeting instead of the start.

“ at is something I would not be willing to do. I’m willing to do whatever needs to happen (to allow) people to speak,” omas said, adding that she wants people to know their comments are welcome “whether I agree with them or disagree with them.”

Current Commissioner Lora omas, a Republican, has opposed the decision to move public comment to the end of commissioners meetings.

Angela omas, the Democrat, also supports making meetings “much more accessible to the public and possibly even move them to a late afternoon, evening meeting, so that more working people can participate.”

e commissioners’ regular meetings typically occur at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesdays, twice a month.

Cost of living

On the high cost of living in Doug-

las County, omas pointed to the county’s mill levy, or property tax rate.

Commissioners decided to give homeowners a property tax refund check this year.

omas wondered whether another approach was possible.

“I would have supported a decrease in the mill levy so that taxpayers would have simply paid a lower amount up front,” omas said.

She also argued the county should look at what federal and state grant money it may not be receiving for public health, mental health and social services purposes.

Teal also pointed to tax relief as important in the conversation about cost of living.

“I think we do a lot of work to keep the cost of county government down,” Teal said, adding: “I still plan on providing tax relief at any time in any way we can. My plan would be refund checks for next year.”

He continued: “Ever since I’ve been on the board in 2021, we have made the decision to provide some kind of tax relief either through property tax credit (or) property tax refund.”

Other issues

Teal said he also supports making Douglas a “home rule” county instead of a “statutory county.”

Counties with home rule charters essentially have their own constitutions.

“We cannot be dismissive and disrespectful to the people that are trying to serve this county,” omas said.

On water

CCM also asked the candidates about what’s known as the Renewable Water Resources plan, an idea that has drawn controversy in county politics.

at’s a proposal to pump about 22,000 acre-feet of water per year to the county from the San Luis Valley in the southern part of the state.

An acre-foot is the equivalent of a one-foot-deep pool about the size of a football eld.Renewable Water Resources, often called RWR, is the private company that proposed the project.

In 2022, Commissioner Abe Laydon joined Lora omas in deciding not to move forward with the project, while Teal continued to support it.

Angela omas is “absolutely opposed” to the RWR plan, she said. She instead supports a “Platte Valley” water plan that involves the Parker Water and Sanitation District working with an entity in northeast Colorado, which omas says will not “buy and dry” that area.

“We have to nd ways to ensure that all of Colorado has water resources, not just Douglas County,” omas said. e plan regarding the San Luis Valley “is a ‘buy and dry’ and is not a (reasonable) plan as far as nancially for us and the ability of the San Luis Valley to produce food.”

e Platte Valley plan would “ensure that everyone has their fair share of the water,” omas added.

I am a Coloradan with a passion for exploration and over three decades of experience as a travel consultant. I’ve had the privilege of helping countless adventurers turn their dreams into reality. Call me, let’s talk about your travel dreams.

at can impact everything from “how we are subject to regulation (from) the state on immigration matters to scal matters — to where we still have (state) laws being passed every year that impose a nancial burden on the people of Douglas County that we can reassess as a home rule county,” Teal said.

Teal was referring to laws that have an exception for home rule counties.

omas said being “respectful to the people” is important. She took issue with the commissioners’ recent consideration of whether to remove two members from county boards — Meghann Silverthorn from the library board and Frank Johns from the water commission. Ultimately, they were both kept on the boards, she said.

Teal was still open, saying RWR could be part of the water solution in Douglas County.

“I’m interested in the long-term nancial and physical health of the county, and water is central to that. So if that were to come back, I would absolutely want to take a look at it. Am I a yes? It kind of depends on ‘the devil is in the details.’”

His position is that he only wants the county to pay for “wet water” — meaning a deal where water will be readily accessible — not “paper,” or theoretical, water.

And if it’s not a good deal, then “we walk away,” Teal said.

State Sen. Kevin Van Winkle faces Josh Smith in race to be Douglas County commissioner

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

State Sen. Kevin Van Winkle, a Republican, faces Democrat Josh Smith in the race that will determine who will replace outgoing Douglas County Commissioner Lora omas, who cannot run for reelection because of term limits.

e two candidates are running in the district that formally covers northwest Douglas County in the November election.

e board of commissioners is the county’s policy-making body, approving Douglas’ annual budget and passing local laws that govern unincorporated areas, or those outside of city and town limits. is includes Highlands Ranch and many other parts of the county.

Both candidates spoke to Colorado Community Media ahead of the election, laying out their stances and what they want to do if elected.

Douglas County commissioners are elected at large from one of three geographic districts. is means commissioners are required to reside in di erent districts, but voters throughout the entire county cast ballots for each seat.

Van Winkle currently represents the Highlands Ranch area at the state Capitol. Before moving to the state Senate, heserved in the state House. According to his campaign website, he is a smallbusiness owner.

Smith works as a freight broker in the trucking industry, helping people nd trucks for their freight. He said he was in the mortgage industry for 18 years before that.

Here’s what the commissioner District 3 candidates had to say on the high cost of living in Douglas County, water and other issues.

On democracy and good governance

In Colorado Community Media’s recent survey sent to readers, many chose democracy and good government as an issue they think candidates should focus on. CCM asked candidates how they would promote those ideals if elected.

Van Winkle said he would put “the citizens rst.”

“Just as I’ve done serving the people of Douglas County for the last 10 years in the legislature,” he said.

For him, that means “safe communities, free of crime and school violence and things like that, car thefts,” Van Winkle said.

On good governance, Smith said the rst thing he would do is “increase transparency around everything that we do.”

He also took issue with “the ability and willingness of two commissioners to shut out the third,” Smith said, referring to the frequent 2-1 split with Commissioners Abe Laydon and George Teal against omas.

Smith said he would support a ballot measure to expand the board of county commissioners to ve members “so that two people can no longer make decisions for a county of (nearly) 400,000,” Smith said.

On cost of living

On the high cost of living in Douglas County, Smith pointed to property taxes as an issue.

He also suggests limiting growth and “protecting our water supply so that we can try to keep our water costs from ballooning out of control.”

e existing commissioner board has allowed property developers to deviate from the county’s typical water use standard, Smith said.

“We need to not allow those to be negotiated down. And I think that alone would restrict some development because it’s going to raise the cost of development,” Smith said.

Van Winkle said he would “always remember that I work for the taxpayers and the citizens of Douglas County.”

“I think there’s a lot more that the Douglas County commissioners can do to lower property taxes,” Van Winkle said. He added that he supports “getting government o our back so taxpayers can keep more of their money, whether that’s fees or taxes.”

Other issues

Van Winkle wants the board to look 40 or 50 years out concerning the question of “what kind of county do we want to be?”

On issues like water resources, building roads and bridges, or approving new communities, he’d like to see thinking “farther out than our commissioners sometimes do now.”

“Instead of approving a park here

and a brand new community there,”

Van Winkle added.

He thinks updating the county’s comprehensive master plan — a broad roadmap for development — could help.

“We should have already had big parks built in the north and west part of the county like Sterling Ranch and Highlands Ranch, and that hasn’t happened yet. And I would say parks and sports venues like more baseball elds, more soccer elds — perhaps even more ice rinks,” Van Winkle said.

Smith said his campaign is about “community restoration,” noting that over the past 10 to 15 years, “we have all become incredibly partisanly divided.”

“I think there’s so much theatricality still at the local level and arguing over fairly unimportant culture war issues, and I think what we need to be doing is more practical measures,” Smith said, adding: “We need to nd ways to get along.”

“I’m trying to get into politics with an e ort to remove politics from a lot of our lives,” Smith added.

On water

CCM also asked the candidates about what’s known as the Renewable Water Resources plan, an idea that has drawn controversy in county politics.

at’s a proposal to pump about 22,000 acre-feet of water per year to the county from the San Luis Valley in the south part of the state.

An acre-foot is the equivalent of a one-foot-deep pool about the size of a football eld.Renewable Water Resources, often called RWR, is the private company that proposed the project.

In 2022, Laydon joined omas in deciding not to move forward with the project, and Teal continued to support it.

Smith is “completely against it,” he said.

“It would be a disaster for the county and a disaster for the San Luis Valley,” Smith said.

Van Winkle said he has been opposed to the RWR project, “but I really don’t think it’s realistic (for it) to come back.”

“ e people of San Luis Valley would ght it so hard — and probably other water providers, too,” Van Winkle said.

How do you think the town should approach growth?

We should not be seeking to expand the town limits or annex more residential development into the town beyond our current boundaries. When dealing with growth that comes from currently zoned properties, I believe the town should be good partners with the developers so that we can create communities with amenities like open space that bene t all of us. I believe we do a nice job of asking builders to pay their fair share for town infrastructure and hold them to a high standard for their development.

less of the topic can inspire positive change and foster an environment where respect and collaboration can thrive. is sense of place, this town, this community should never lose sight of respect. Always work towards constructive conversations, connection and commonalities. But most importantly, honor the constitutional dignity of every person.

How do you think the town should approach growth?

Do you support the sales tax increase the town put on the ballot? Why or why not?

Castle Rock should approach growth in a balanced and thoughtful way. We need to prioritize projects that align with our long-term vision for the town while protecting the things that make Castle Rock a great place to live. is means making data-driven decisions, involving the community, and ensuring that our infrastructure and services can handle new development. Growth is inevitable, but we can control how we grow to ensure it bene ts everyone – residents, businesses and the environment.

Do you support the sales tax increase the town put on the ballot? Why or why not?

I support police and re. Public safety is vital to the well being and quality of life of individuals and communities. Investments in our police and re departments help maintain and improve our exceptional levels of service and strengthen our sense of security and provide peace of mind.

What are the top issues you would like to address as a council member?  is is a divisive time in our country. Cultivating civility, cultivating respect (is) rst and foremost. For me, as a community leader, I believe that setting the right tone regard-

I fully support the town’s police and re, and I think they do an outstanding job. I generally believe in less taxes and less government. However, I also realize Castle Rock is a growing community and budgetary adjustments will be necessary to have the rst responders needed to maintain the excellent service we receive.  What are the top issues you would like to address as a council member?

1) Responsible growth - Growth continues to be the top concern on the town’s citizen surveys, and due to past annexations and zoning coupled with property rights, it’s not always possible to say no to growth. It is, however, always possible to make sure that growth is done responsibly. is means making sure we have the water and the infrastructure to support that growth. 2) Trafc solutions - As more and more people move into Castle Rock, we are seeing more and more tra c on our roads. e Crystal Valley Interchange will help with current tra c congestion, and we need to continue to explore common-sense solutions for the increasing tra c congestion. 3) Downtown and event parking - e town has made some great progress adding downtown parking at the Encore building, the new library, the Douglas County School building and the upcoming View property. Similar to the tra c solutions, I want to continue to explore common-sense solutions for better parking in downtown.

CASTLE ROCK

How do you think the town should approach growth?

I believe growth needs to be approached responsibly. Based on plans approved by the town years ago, we have seen unprecedented growth over the last eight to 10 years. Before more growth can occur, we need to be

certain we have the infrastructure in place to accommodate that growth.

Lindberg Je erson

Do you support the sales tax increase the town put on the ballot? Why or why not?

I support funding for public safety. Our challenge is the way public safety is funded. Everyone in the town is covered by public safety, yet our retail spaces don’t match our residential space and not everyone shops in the town. ere

has to be a more sustainable model of funding that spreads the ‘burden’ of funding more equally across all residents.

What are the top issues you would like to address as a council member?

I don’t come to town council with a preconceived agenda. I come with the goal of doing what is meet, just and right. As an entrepreneur, and an early adopter of ideas and technology, I can help the town innovate. Top

two issues are water and public safety. How do you think the town should approach growth?

We need to be smart about the infrastructure, starting with water. Without water, there can be no life. We need to ensure our decisions are guided by the best interests of the community and the reality of our region, not by those who would bene t from unmitigated growth.

Douglas County expands homeless camping ban

Action comes on heels of new decision by

U.S. Supreme Court

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After claiming to have “e ectively ended homelessness” just a month earlier, Douglas County’s leaders voted to expand the county’s camping ban, a move fueled by a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision.

Abe Laydon, one of the county’s three commissioners, framed the camping ban as “all about reclaiming our public spaces.”

“ ankfully our numbers were never astronomical, so we were able to nip this in the bud,” Laydon said, referring to homelessness in Douglas. He added, “I think we’re going to continue to work hard.”

County leaders passed a narrower camping ban last year, but the new ban is expanded to cover all public, or government-owned, property. It applies in unincorporated areas — those outside of city and town boundaries, like Highlands Ranch and many other parts of Douglas.

At a county news conference in August about homelessness, Sheri Darren Weekly said, “Homelessness is not a crime.” He echoed Parker Mayor Je Toborg, who made a similar statement.

Cathy Alderman, spokesperson for the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless, argued that camping bans don’t solve homelessness but rather can merely move people away from certain areas.

“If you are penalizing the existence of people because of their house situation — in this instance, their unhoused situation — whether you intend it to be a crime or not, if it becomes a crime, your best intentions haven’t resulted in it not being a crime,” Alderman said, speaking about public o cials.

Camping bans can perpetuate homelessness because they result in nes or penalties that can later result in warrants and arrests, which can affect a person’s ability to nd employment and housing, Alderman said.

“Having a criminal record because you’re trying to survive doesn’t create an easy path to the things that you

County other than for those eeing domestic violence, according to county sta .

An earlier resource, the Winter Shelter Network of churches, “made the di cult decision” to end its shelter program after the 2022-2023 season, the county said in a statement. at move came “following two winters with very low attendance in the network and challenges maintaining volunteers,” the statement said.

e Winter Shelter Network “is donating $7,155 in gift cards” to the Homeless Engagement, Assistance and Resource Team, or HEART, which is the county’s homelessness outreach team, to help the clients they encounter, the statement said.

But the county works with shelter providers in other areas.

need to get out of that cycle of homelessness,” Alderman said.

What’s in the law

e draft of the new camping ban ordinance, or law, says no person can camp on public property without written permission.

“Camp means to reside or dwell temporarily in a place, with shelter, and conduct activities of daily living, such as eating or sleeping,” the draft text says.

Under that law, “shelter” includes any cover or protection from the elements other than clothing.

Written permission includes a documented reservation, permit, park pass or contract, the text says.

People who violate the camping ban may face a ne of up to $1,000 for each separate violation of the ordinance, plus a surcharge of $10, according to the text.

e ordinance takes e ect Oct. 25, according to county sta .

Before, Douglas only banned unauthorized camping on county property in areas outside of cities and towns, rather than on public property in general. Change spurred by Supreme Court case

Je Garcia, cited the recent Supreme Court decision in the City of Grants Pass v. Johnson.

“ ey made a clari cation that it is not an Eighth Amendment violation to ticket or create a penalty for camping on public property where there is no shelter available,” Garcia said at a Sept. 24 county commissioners meeting. “Prior to that decision, in compliance with the law, the county had required that shelter be available and that it was documented before we could issue a citation.”

Alderman, the public policy o cer for Colorado Coalition for the Homeless, which advocates for services for the unhoused, was disappointed in the Grants Pass ruling.

ere was “a very reasonable approach to say if you o er somebody services, if you o er somebody shelter, if you o er somebody housing, and they continue to choose to live outside, which is not what most people experiencing homelessness are doing, that could be considered a criminal penalty,” Alderman said.

But the court “upended” that balance, and now “you can kind of criminalize homelessness at will,” she added.

Shelter and services in Douglas County ere are no shelters in Douglas

“We are utilizing the shelters on the Front Range — metro region and (Colorado) Springs if they have prior connection to El Paso County — if someone wants to go to shelter,” another statement said. “We also have a limited number of hotel vouchers (in) Douglas County that we can use to temporarily house someone until we can get them to a safe place — family reuni cation, friends who are willing to house them, etc.”

Douglas has also contributed about $1.1 million to the upcoming Aurora regional navigation campus — a place that will serve the homeless — that is expected to guarantee Douglas ve beds with which to shelter unhoused people the county encounters, according to the county.

Along with shelter, the campus will o er “wraparound services,” such as mental health counseling, help nding jobs and help for those with substance use disorders, according to the county.

Pointing to HEART

Laydon, the commissioner, highlighted HEART, the outreach group that makes contact with people who are unhoused and provides them resources.

“We are reclaiming our public spaces and also providing services to those who need it,” Laydon said at the meeting before voting to approve the ban.

HEART team members work with law enforcement, and the team began operations in September 2022.

Castle Rock council candidate engages in conspiracies, misinformation

BY MCKENNA HARFORD MHARFORD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A candidate for Castle Rock Town Council is sharing numerous conspiracy theories and misinformation on his campaign website, including ones about vaccines, the LGBTQ community, COVID-19 and immigration.

William Tubbs, a Castle Rock resident since 2009, is a parole o cer for the Colorado Department of Corrections and Army veteran running for the town council to represent District 2, which covers northeast Castle Rock. Tubbs is running against incumbent Laura Cavey in the nonpartisan race.

In response to an interview request from the Castle Rock NewsPress, Tubbs said in an email that his statement is the truth. Tubbs said the News-Press is censoring him, and he chose to pull his candidate questionnaire rather than have his responses go through the same vetting process as all others.

“If elected, I will also call out your publication,” he said. “Castle Rock has the local version of the NY Times. is is the nonsense I am ghting against.”

In a statement on his campaign website, Tubbs shares his views on a wide range of political issues, with heavy focus on his opposition to vaccines, pandemic-related mandates, Douglas County Pride and the LGBTQ community.

Tubbs does not cite any evidence or link to any sources throughout his statement.

“Many of the issues may not come up in the City Council Meetings. However, some will, and I will

be prepared,” Tubbs’ website said. “If elected, you will at least know your City Council Member is aware of the issues and how he stands regarding them.”

Tubbs highlights his protest of the Douglas County PrideFest in Parker this year, an event that he falsely claims was used to “groom children.” He also attacks the LGBTQ community with baseless accusations that they are pedophiles or are trying to normalize pedophilia.

Tubbs said the council’s lack of action against last year’s PrideFest was unacceptable.

“We need lions on the council,” he said. “What happens when we face a mask or vaccine mandate, or illegals are pouring into Castle Rock, or whatever else they come up with? e time to be sweet and tolerant is over.”

e statement includes a number of anti-vaccine sentiments, including Tubbs calling the COVID vaccine “not even a vaccine” and questioning its safety. He shared the widely debunked conspiracy that vaccines cause autism.

e Food and Drug Administration has approved ve vaccines for COVID. According to a report from the Centers for Disease Control, there’s no evidence that the vaccines cause signi cant health issues.

e myth that vaccines cause autism was based on a single study that has since been retracted and the author of the study lost their medical license for falsifying information, according to the Mayo Clinic. Repeated studies have shown there’s no link between the measles, mumps and rubella vac-

cine and autism.

e statement questions election integrity, but doesn’t point to speci c examples.

Tubbs claims that immigration and diversity, equity and inclusion ideology are destroying cities all over the world, such as London. He also asserts that a few international organizations control most politicians, echoing conspiracy theories such as the Great Replacement theory.

According to the Anti-Defamation League, the Great Replacement is an antisemitic and White supremacist theory that immigration will lead to the end of the White race.

Tubbs said he plans to ght tyranny, despite whether he is elected.

“I will be ghting for what is right, no matter the result of this election,” he said. “In my humble opinion, I am the person that should be elected.”

If elected, Tubbs would serve a four-year term on the Castle Rock Town Council.

To contact a member of HEART, the public can call 303-660-7301.

‘O cially ended homelessness’ e county doubled down on its claim of having e ectively ended homelessness, with Laydon saying: “We were really pleased and honored to announce just a few weeks ago that Douglas County has ocially ended homelessness. And that

sounds like hyperbole, but the reality is, based upon our o cial pointin-time, we currently have zero encampments, zero panhandling, and only six unsheltered homeless in a county of (about) 400,000.”

e commissioner was referring to numbers from what’s known as a point-in-time count of homelessness, carried out on one night this summer. at data comes from July 29. For a look at the county’s data and regional numbers in the Denver metro area, see the Douglas County News-Press’ earlier story at tinyurl. com/DouglasHomelessNumbers.

Colorado lacks tracking for foster care runaways

within 24 hours. Foster parents and sta who run residential centers also are required to tell local law enforcement when they realize a child is gone.

BY JENNIFER BROWN THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado should keep track of basic information about foster children who run away, including their age and race, how they were able to run, and why, according to a state task force set up to help protect them. e task force that met for two years said the state lacks such basic, extractable data about runaways that it’s hard to conduct “any meaningful analysis.” e creation of such a database was among one of several recommendations released Tuesday as the task force came out with itsnal report.

When a child in foster care goes missing, the county child welfare division is required to report it to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children immediately, or

But Colorado has no “standard, statewide system that e ectively collects information and data regarding instances of children and youth running away from care, nor is there a current system that allows for the extrapolation of data in a way that would allow for meaningful analysis,” said the nal report from task force, organized by the O ce of the Colorado Child Protection Ombudsman.

Without more data, Colorado will struggle to get at the root causes of why children run away and how to stop it. e task force is named after Timothy Montoya, a 12-year-old boy who ran away from Tennyson Center for Children in Denver and was struck by a vehicle and killed. He was one of two boys who died after leaving Denver-area centers and being hit by cars. e other was 15-year-old Andrew Potter.

A Colorado Sun/9 News investiga-

tion into their deaths found police were summoned to residential centers hundreds of times each month to deal with runaways.

e data captured for a future database should include: how long a child was missing, how many times they have run away, the reasons they say they ed, the services they were provided when they were found and whether any physical restraints were used to try to prevent them from running, the report said.

By looking at data collected in other states, the task force found that children who are removed from their homes at an older age are more likely to run away and that children of color, and especially Black children, are more likely to run.

rough interviews with foster youth who have run away, the task force found that many referred to a “triggering event” that included a phone call from home or news that they were missing out on events at home. ey said they ed while they were in a “state of emergency” that interfered with their ability to consider the consequences of running.

Sta are confused about when they can prevent kids from leaving

Colorado has about 3,500 children living in foster families, residential treatment centers and other placements. In the past year, 34 children ran away from these placements and were not returned, according to Colorado Department of Human Services data. e state does not track how many foster youth are missing on a daily basis.

e task force’s report also called on Colorado to create a runaway prevention curriculum that would be required for all foster parents and residential centers. And the group said Colorado needs to consider adding safety measures at residential treatment centers that would prevent children and teens from leaving the property. While some facilities have locks, fencing and alarms, others do not because they do not think it’s allowed.

“ is has led to a situation where youth are often able to simply walk away from care without any barriers,” the report said.

Colorado law is too ambiguous about a facility’s ability to prevent a child or teen from walking away, the task force found. “Youth are often al-

lowed to leave the premises without any intervention by facility sta ,” the report says.

Sta at the facilities reported in one study that they’re regularly confused and paralyzed by what’s known as the Colorado “Restraint and Seclusion Act,” which says they cannot physically prevent a child from leaving a residential treatment center unless the child is in imminent danger. In one case, a worker watched as a 13-year-old boy ran from a center in the middle of a blizzard wearing only sweats and ipops. Instead of trying to catch him, she kept an eye on the boy from her car until the child returned to the facility on his own.

e task force also recommended that after runaways are returned, they should have access to a shortterm stabilization center to deal with the trauma that occurred while they were on the run.

Lawmakers created and funded the task force, including research assistance from the Colorado Evaluation and Action Lab at the University of Denver. e panel’s report now goes to lawmakers, who can decide whether to propose changes in law based on the recommendations. is story was printed through a news sharing agreement with e Colorado Sun, a journalist-owned nonpro t based in Denver that covers the state.

Vote to end trophy hunting of big cats

am a lifelong Coloradan operating a small organic farm raising goats, chickens, and produce in mountain lion territory. My land encompasses an elk calving ground and has been placed in a conservation easement. I have lled my freezer with elk meat for decades and I source most of my food locally.

Mountain lions and bobcats depend on this land for their safety and nourishment. I take the necessary precautions to protect my goats and chickens and the apex predators who live here by utilizing guard dogs and a protective shelter at night. Con icts between my domestic livestock and the wildlife who live here are rare, and if they do happen, I learn how to use more effective non-lethal deterrents.

I rst learned about the brutal techniques of mountain lion

and bobcat hunting in Colorado when I began seeing hound dogs with large collars equipped with extended antennas captured on trail cameras on my private land. Around this same time, someone at our local bar found a hound wandering the streets adorned with a GPS collar with a phone number listed. ey called that number and the person who answered asked them to release the dog explaining that he was letting it run loose in this area to seek out any mountain lions or bobcats for a trophy kill. I was shocked and called Colorado Parks and Wildlife and they told me that this was permitted under the law.

A year later, on Christmas Day, I heard hounds baying on my land. I followed the sounds and witnessed

a trapped bobcat in a tree. I confronted the hunters when theynally arrived about this trespass and harassment of wildlife, and when I called CPW I was told, once again, that this was legal as long as they came to retrieve the dogs.

As I researched this cruel, inhumane, and unnecessary form of hunting, I discovered that out tters in our state are permitted up to eight dogs to chase mountain lions from a distance while hunters track them with a GPS device in order to charge out-of-state hunters upwards of $8,000 to corner and shoot these animals for a trophy. I am an ethical hunter, and I knew this was not ethical nor fair chase. If my dog is oleash and chases wildlife, I could be heavily ned for this infraction of the law. So why does Colorado allow packs of hounds to brutally chase lions to exhaustion so that a

hunter can shoot them down?

Bobcats are also hounded, but the most common method of killing is to bait them into a live trap where they are held in the deep cold for up to 24 hours (if these trappers are following the law) until they are bludgeoned, strangled, or poisoned to death so their fur can be sold to overseas markets. I was shocked to learn that the commercialization of wildlife was sanctioned in our state. I have devoted my life to protecting our dwindling habitat and wildlife, and I know that it is my responsibility to work to end these atrocities. Wildlife scientists agree that recreational hunting of these animals for their heads and their beautiful coats does nothing to reduce con icts between our species or to improve the stability of wildlife communities.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Church’s legal win is win for compassion

e recent legal victory of e Rock Church in Castle Rock, CO, over the Town of Castle Rock is a triumph for justice, compassion, and religious freedom. e dispute centered on the church’s commitment to shelter homeless individuals on its property, a mission rooted in its religious duty to aid those in need. Despite the town’s repeated attempts to block these e orts using zoning laws, the church’s determination and legal win emphasize a key moral truth: obedience to God can, and sometimes must, take precedence over adherence to government rules, especially when compassion is at stake.

Zoning laws exist to maintain order and safety in a community, but rigid application of these laws, as seen here, can distort their original purpose. In this case, the town used zoning regulations to prevent a church from ful lling its deeply held religious obligation to help the homeless, undermining the very essence of justice and compassion these laws should support. e law should serve the common good, not obstruct acts of charity aligned with faith.

e Rock Church’s e orts are not a mere convenience — they are an expression of their religious conviction. e spirit of the law should acknowledge and respect the church’s right to exercise its faith through service to others. While town o cials might have been legally justi ed, they ignored the broader humanitarian and ethical imperatives that compel the church to act. Upholding the spirit of the law in this case means supporting the church’s mission to care for the most vulnerable in society.

Church’s mission, we uphold values of compassion, justice, and religious liberty, ensuring that the law serves humanity, not hinders it.

County’s homeless claim dicey

On Aug. 16, Douglas County commissioners issued the following: “Douglas County has e ectively ended homelessness in its communities,” with subtitle, “number of homeless sleeping outside in DougCo reduced from 43 to 6 in two years.”

During the associated presser, o cials Laydon and Weekly proclaimed the success of HEART, the local agency e ort to directly interact with the homeless, to make referrals to appropriate community services. e story garnered wide coverage across Front Range media.

To his credit, CCM’s Ellis Arnold noted: “A fuller picture of homelessness data tells a more complicated story for a variety of reasons.” Arnold’s valid “call-out” deserves a deeper look. As he hinted, there’s more to the story.

In fact, the county’s homeless proclamation might be reasonably construed as a convenient political play on de nitions and numbers by county o cials. And it’s certainly not the rst time the county has tweaked numbers to enhance their self-congratulatory pressers.

roughout history, people have faced the dilemma of choosing between moral imperatives and government rules. Religious traditions, including Christianity, teach that acts of charity and love for others, especially the marginalized, are sacred duties. When the government enforces laws that hinder these religiously motivated acts, it challenges the essence of religious freedom. e church’s victory under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA) reafrms the need to protect religious institutions from unnecessary interference. By supporting e Rock

As background, in addition to the standalone annual summer homelessness survey, Douglas County participates in the annual Denver Metro January survey. is nationwide survey, sponsored by HUD, provides the gold standard de nition of homelessness: “people regularly sleeping in place not t for human habitation” (e.g. in tents, in vehicles, in emergency shelters, among others).

Applying HUD’s industry standard de nitions to DougCo’s summer survey would enable a clean trend line, apples-to-apples measurements of available data.

But it appears county o cials would rather avoid apples-to-apples comparisons ... they prefer in-house de nitions because their numbers conveniently create the right story. Notably, commissioners discount residing/sleeping in a vehicle, in an emergency shelter or transitional housing from homelessness.

Going through the home to declutter every few months can feel good.

Sometimes, the act of decluttering is spurred on by a large life change, like a move. Other times, it’s just nice to get a fresh start.

Deciding what to keep and what to let go can certainly be challenging, but sometimes the hardest part comes once the piles have been made. What should you do with the stroller your kids have grown out of, or the pantsuit you no longer need since you switched jobs?

Luckily, several organizations in Colorado exist to ensure your loved items will nd a second life. From

mattresses to cribs, your items can be recycled or reused — and can help change people’s lives in the process.

Cribs and car seats for young families

In Aurora, an organization called WeeCycle connects families raising infants and toddlers with essential baby gear and supplies.

“We do this by collecting new and gently used items from other community members that are done with their items, but they still have a lot of usable life left in them,” said Executive Director Morgan Seibel. “All of our programming works through that lens of sustainability.”

WeeCycle accepts items including cribs, car seats, strollers, diapers and “pack ‘n plays,” which are portable play and sleeping area units. e

group also accepts baby gates, baby monitors, humidi ers, bassinets and more.

e organization hosts collection events multiple times a week at its warehouse in Aurora and has other partner locations throughout the metro area that accept new diapers, wipes and formula. Pickup services are also available in some cases.

After receiving, cleaning and organizing donations, the team works with about 60 partner organizations to connect usable items to families that need them.

“We try to have a very wide range of di erent organizations … with the common thread that they are supporting families with infants and toddlers, and those families are struggling to provide all the items that they

need,” Seibel said.

ese organizations help immigrant and refugee families, families experiencing homelessness, foster families, families in the court system and more.

Seibel said WeeCycle tries to partner with organizations that provide additional wraparound support services for families, such as housing support, job training, English language classes and more.

“We understand that giving a family a stroller doesn’t solve all the other challenges that they’re facing,” she said.

In the rst two half of this year, WeeCycle distributed over 367,000 items to families in need, totaling an

that you no longer need, it can be used to help support women as they embark on their professional journeys.

Dress for Success Denver aims to empower women and all who gender-identify as women to achieve economic independence by providing professional attire, career development tools and a network of support, said Executive Director Amara Martin.

e local branch of the international nonpro t accepts women’s business casual to business professional clothing, shoes, jewelry and accessories, Martin said. e organization asks that all clothing donated be clean, in season and current.

“ ose clothes are going to immediately go into my clothing boutique, where women are coming down during the week when they have a job interview, as well as when they are starting work,” she said.

“We all know that the better you look, the more con dent you feel,” she said. “ is is an excellent way to kind of spread that con dence and to help a woman on her journey toward self-de ned success.”

Martin said the organization is often in need of plus-sized clothing, which it receives less often in donations. People who want to help ll this need can donate funds to support Dress for Success Denver in purchasing clothing that matches the sizing needs of their clients.

Mattresses for a better life

One of the most notoriously challenging items to get rid of is a mattress. ey can be hard to sell. Many donation centers don’t take them and they rarely t in a dumpster. Plus, simply throwing away such a large and important item can feel like a waste.

ally largely made of foam, wood and steel, Conway said. e workers separate the materials and compress them into bales, which they then send to recycling partners.

Steel makes its way to mills where it is recycled into new steel products. Foam goes to a plant where it’s made into carpet padding, automobile insulation and more. Wood is turned into landscaping mulch or biofuel.

“Historically, we have been able to recycle anywhere from 85% to about 92% of a mattress,” Conway said. e team recycles about 6,000 to 7,000 mattresses each month, Conway said. at means they diverted about 3.4 million mattresses from land lls in 2023.

“ e worst thing for a land ll is a mattress,” he said. “If you have a nite amount of space in the in the ground, the last thing you want going in there is big, bulky items that don’t break down, that are really hard on equipment and machinery.”

DONATIONS

estimated value of over $1.6 million.

WeeCycle recycles car seats that cannot be reused. ey also try to be creative with other items that cannot be given to families, which has led to donating recalled pillows to animal shelters and donating crib pieces to the local children’s museum maker lab.

Seibel said donating items to WeeCycle can be a great way for families to help others with items that they have grown out of, or perhaps items that they never even used.

“It allows them to really support other members of their community that aren’t able to access the items that they had when raising their children,” she said.

Clothing and confidence for professionals

“ ey, together, shop to nd the best items that are going to t the best, that are going to look the best, that are going to help her feel as condent as possible in her job search,” Martin said.

In 2023, over 1,300 women used the boutique space, Martin said. Some people are referred by partner organizations, and others refer themselves.

In addition to getting free professional clothing, women who use Dress for Success Denver’s services can receive career coaching, take job readiness classes, participate in a job retention program and more.

Martin said if a person is unsure whether their clothes are in season or in style, they should bring it to donate anyway. Anything that doesn’t meet Dress for Success Denver’s requirements will be donated to other organizations that serve women in the community, she said.

e organization accept donations from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the second Saturday of every month at 2594 S. Colorado Blvd. in Denver. ey ask that all donations are delivered on hangers, not in garbage bags or boxes.

e organization also accepts donations of unopened, mini-size toiletries such as shampoo, conditioner, deodorant and hand sanitizer.

Spring Back Colorado gives people an alternative for mattress recycling, while also providing employment opportunities for people who have had challenges entering the workforce due to criminal history, addiction or other challenges.

President Peter Conway said his father started Spring Back Colorado after spending years volunteering at Denver Rescue Mission, a homeless shelter. While working there, he met a lot of people who struggled to nd and keep jobs.

“ e company was created as a way to help those folks get stable employment, get back on their feet, become tax-paying members of the community, and also to help reduce recidivism,” Conway said. “We use mattress recycling as a vehicle to do all of that.”

e company partners with drug and alcohol recovery centers to offer job opportunities to individuals in the programs. One of their main partners is the Stout Street Foundation, a recovery program based in Commerce City, where Spring Back Colorado is also located.

“As their members are going through their treatment program, they basically introduce them into di erent workforces throughout the community,” Conway said. “Once they graduate from that program, they’re able to come on in a more full-time capacity with us.”

At the mattress recycling warehouse, employees break down mattresses that have been picked up or dropped o . Mattresses are usu-

Spring Back Colorado has partnerships with land lls to bring mattresses to the recycling plant. In many cases, recycling a mattress with Spring Back Colorado — which costs a $40 recycling fee if you drop it o at the warehouse — costs less than throwing it away at a land ll, Conway said.

Spring Back Colorado also o ers mattress pickup, which costs an additional $60 to $90 transportation fee, depending on distance.

Conway said recycling mattresses is the environmentally responsible thing to do.

“Bringing them to us, you are helping create that land ll waste diversion,” he said. “Shifting the awareness and the consumer to do the right thing, I think is only going to continue to become more and more impactful on an environmental level.”

But perhaps even more importantly, Conway said, bringing mattresses to Spring Back Colorado helps make a di erence in people’s lives.

Bobby Dainko, who works as the community development director at Spring Back Colorado, is a graduate of Stout Street Foundation. When he started working at the mattress recycling facility, he was experiencing homelessness and had 11 warrants.

Five years later, he is a homeowner, is employed and says he loves his life. He credits Spring Back Colorado for the transformation.

“If it wasn’t for them, I don’t know where I’d be,” he said. “I might even be dead. It allowed me to get my life back … You can’t put a price on what I’ve gotten back.”

Arvada Center explores the possibilities of ceramics

One of the simple joys of autumn is wrapping your hands around a warm mug of your favorite hot beverage. e Arvada Center is channeling that pleasure in one of its three new fall exhibitions, all of which celebrate and examine the many uses of ceramics.

MUGSHOT, Wright Place, Wrong Time: Triumphs & Flops for MidCentury Modern Table and Bebe Alexander: Impact & In uence are all on display at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., through Sunday, Nov. 10.

“All three of these shows are a testament to how versatile ceramics are and how special the ceramics studio we have here is,” said Collin Parson, director of galleries and curator. “We hope people who see them discover a ceramics passion of their own.”

For the Main Gallery’s MUGSHOT, Parson asked artists to submit any-

COMING ATTRACTIONS

thing that was inuenced by a mug. It didn’t have to be functional or even ceramic, and as a result, he received around 310 mugs, made out of everything from wood and glass to acrylic.

In the eatre Gallery, the idea was an exhibit that was the opposite of the individually crafted mugs: industrially-produced items. For Wright Place, Wrong Time, the center partnered with the Kirkland Museum of Fine & Decorative Art to showcase Russel Wright’s American Modern dinnerware line, which is the bestselling ceramic service of all time.

But according to the provided information, not every pattern Wright

produced was a hit with consumers, so Parson and his team turned the exhibit into an interactive game. Visitors can see Wright’s designers — as well as works by his famous contemporaries Eva Zeisel, Ben Seibel and Charles Murphy — and try to guess which designs were successful and which weren’t.

“ ere’s a ip panel where visitors can turn it over and it will reveal if the pattern sold well or not,” Parson explained. “It’s a fun way to explore these high-production pottery items.”

e nal exhibit is a very personal one for Parson and everyone at the Arvada Center. Bebe Alexander was the center’s ceramics coordinator for more than 30 years, but she retired this August. So, the Upper Gallery’s Bebe Alexander: Impact & In uence is a chance to celebrate all her work. Visitors can see Alexander’s creations, which render architectural

forms and manmade objects in clay, as well as the work of past students and colleagues who were in uenced by Alexander.

“Her retirement was a big loss for the Arvada Center, but she set up a wonderful ceramics program here, one of the best in the region,” Parson said. “A show to celebrate her impact was important and I’m glad we did it, because she is very deserving.”

Catching up with Clark: Wyndham talks Olympics, Presidents Cup

BY ED KLAJMAN

SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Last year, Wyndham Clark became a U.S. Open champion, won a prestigious PGA Tour event, qualied for the elite 12-member United States Ryder Cup squad and ended the year among the world’s top 10 golfers.

is season, his list of stunning career achievements got even longer.

In February, the Valor Christian High School alum shot a courserecord and career-low round of 60 at iconic Pebble Beach in winning another prominent tournament.

In July, he became an Olympian – one of just four Americans to represent the country in the men’s golf tournament in Paris.

And last week, to nish o the year, he appeared in his rst Presidents Cup as a key member of a Team USA side that dominated the International team – another perk that comes with being ranked as high as number three in the world in 2024.

And yet, even with all that, right up there with all of those highlights – and maybe even exceeding them in some ways – is what happened in late August for the 30-year-old Highlands Ranch native.

For the rst time in his life, he was nally able to compete in a professional golf tournament held on Colorado soil, when the BMW Championship – an event for only the tour’s top 50 players – came to Castle Pines Golf Club.

Speaking at the Presidents Cup, as he re ected back on his season, the former Valor Christian basketball star described how much the BMW Championship meant to him, considering how there used to be a regular PGA Tour stop at Castle Pines he attended regularly as a child. at was a huge inspiration for him pursuing a career in professional golf.

“It was awesome,” Clark said, noting how special it was to have so many family members and friends from home watch him compete, and to have local golf fans come out in large numbers to cheer on one of their own. “ e fans in Colorado really embraced me. It felt amazing,” he said, noting that the only disappointment was ending in a tie for 13th place.

“I was really bummed how I nished,” said the former collegiate star at the University of Oregon. “I would’ve loved to have won, or at least had a chance, you know, just maybe had a little better last few holes. But when I look back at it, I felt like I made my city and state proud.”

He was also a little melancholy knowing that it was one-o , and there are no current plans to bring a regular tour event back to Colorado.

“You know, I’m bummed that it might not happen for another ve, ten years, who knows,” said Clark, who grew up playing at Cherry Hills Golf Club, a membership his father Randall got at great nancial sacri ce for the family of ve so that Wyndham could pursue his gol ng dreams.

Clark admitted that it was a bit

surprising – but extremely touching – for him to discover that there are countless people from his hometown and home state who have been following all his accomplishments quite closely.

“Any time you’re on these big stages like the Presidents Cup or a Ryder Cup or Olympics, you gain fans, you grow as maybe a hometown favorite in Colorado, or sometimes for your country,” said Clark, who credits his mother Lise – who passed away when he was in college after a battle with breast cancer – with instilling the drive and self-belief he needed to succeed. “You know, I noticed when I was there (Castle Pines) that people were bringing up the Olympics, and bringing up Team USA stu , which was really neat. So yeah, I just feel like I’ve been very blessed in the things I’ve been able to do.”

With the o -season now upon him, he’ll head to his home in Scottsdale, where many PGA players reside. He’ll recharge his batteries and start working on his game in preparation to get even better in 2025.

He’s philosophical about the bar being so high after a phenomenal two years.

“It all depends on how I handle the expectations,” he said. “Everyone else puts a lot of expectations on players as you start having success. I put a lot on myself as well. But one thing I will say is playing and competing in majors and winning majors and tournaments and playing on these (Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup) teams makes you want to do it more and more and be part of it all the time. It’s the best motivator for getting to the top. You know, the biggest thing is you want to stay up there and climb higher.”

He added that he’s “really looking forward to the challenge” of achieving that.

“I get a great o -season after this event where I get to work and go: ‘OK, how can I improve?’” Clark said. “I don’t really try to do results goals. I try to get better in certain areas of my game, like certain stats I want to get better at, certain things mentally I have to get better at. It’s really a fun part of the year when you forecast what you want the next year to be like, set all the goals, and then if you go and accomplish them, it’s kind of the most rewarding thing in what we do.”

LETTERS

Using all of the county’s data, from all surveys, shows that the number of sheltered homeless people in 2024 is about the same as it was in January 2020 (42 vs. 40); the number of people living in vehicles is about the same number as two years ago (21 vs. 20).

So … when Douglas County ofcials said “Douglas County has effectively ended homelessness in its communities,” pay attention to the details. Because the county’s stated count of “6” is actually “42”, using the county’s own data.

Laydon’s homelessness remarks are eerily reminiscent of his April 2021 COVID proclamation, “Douglas County [is the] rst county in the state to say that this pandemic is over.” e commissioners’ 2021 data, also based on in-house de nitions, contradicted what state health ocials are seeing, that the state was in a fourth wave of the pandemic. Subsequently, Douglas County within a year, experienced the highest weekly counts of COVID cases, hospitalizations and deaths.

Tell truth about border bill

I am so tired of Democrat politicians (Harris and Caraveo specically) misrepresenting the bipartisan border bill that failed earlier this year. Both above-mentioned politicians claim their support of the bill shows they are strong on the border and able to cross party lines. VP Harris further alleges that it failed because former President Trump wants to use it as a campaign issue.

Let’s peel back the onion on this garbage bill, sponsored by RINOs. is bill allows up to 5,000 immigrants a day. Do the math that is just under 1.9 million a year. Sounds secure to me. e bill also provides a fast track asylum program. One of the best features of this border bill, supposedly to secure the border of the United States, is it provides $60 billion in aid to Ukraine. at last nugget does wonders to secure our border.

Neither Harris or Caraveo fail to even mentioned HR2, which sits on Schumer’s desk, which he refuses to bring to the oor for a vote. HR 2 is an immigration bill that truly would help secure the border. at shows how much the democrat party really wants to secure the border.

I understand many people are not fond of Donald Trump personally. How many really think VP Harris is better on foreign and domestic policies than Trump?

My dad was a major league bookmaker. I always remember him telling me “bet with your head, not your heart.” at still holds true. Bet on the direction of the country with your head, not because of how you feel about someone.

One more point on VP Harris. One of two things have to be true about her. Either she lied to the American people about Biden’s cognitive decline, or she was too incompetent to see it.

Respecting Colorado’s animals

I am a native Coloradan, I cherish our state and our natural resources. Isn’t the reason we live here is to enjoy these incredible mountains, lakes, rivers, forests … we live in a wonderland.

If someone or some company came into our state to pollute our lakes or rivers, clear-cut our trees, lay waste to our mountains, we would rise up as Coloradans do and stop them. But what about our beautiful wild animals?

Unfortunately, there are those that don’t value our wildlife as much as the rest of us. Let’s call them trophy hunters and trappers who are decimating some our most valued animals. Big cats … mountain lions, bobcats, cougars are being slaughtered to make fur coats or destroyed for someone’s “trophy.” I hate to think what kind of person nds joy killing these beautiful creatures. ese big cats are nature’s rst defense in keeping elk, deer, bighorn sheep and other herds healthy by culling the sick. Without them, elk, deer and sheep overpopulate and often die of starvation, they become over time unhealthy and more susceptible to diseases.

I’m calling on you, my incredible fellow Coloradans to make a stand and stop the slaughter … vote yes on Prop 127, November 5th! Stand up to those few who are doing some much damage to our animals.

Don’t be fooled by the rhetoric. Mountain lions are certainly majes-

ABOUT LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Colorado Community Media welcomes letters to the editor. Please note the following rules:

tic, but they can also be extremely dangerous. Of all the big game hunting in Colorado, mountain lion hunting is the most closely regulated. Hunting under the supervision of the wildlife division of CPW is the scienti c way to manage the mountain lion population. Not all mountain lion hunters are looking for trophies or hunt with dogs. Most people don’t know that mountain lions are hunted for their meat. By law, the meat from every mountain lion killed must be consumed.

If Proposition 127 passes, it will take away CPW’s ability to properly and safely manage the mountain lion population. is will result in an explosion of mountain lions in Colorado. ere will be a rapid increase in human mountain lion interaction. An adult mountain lion is a formidable adversary for an adult let alone a youth. Hiking in the mountains will become much more dangerous. e increase in mountain lions will naturally lead to the expansion of their territories, which will include moving into residential areas. is will put pets, children and even adults at risk.

Let’s be smart about this. Let the professionals, who have been doing an excellent job at scienti cally managing the mountain lion population, do their job!

LEGAL NOTICE OF OPPORTUNITY TO COMMENT USDA FOREST SERVICE

PIKE-SAN ISABEL NATIONAL FORESTS & CIMARRON AND COMANCHE NATIONAL GRASSLANDS SOUTH PLATTE RANGER DISTRICT

BUFFALO CREEK 543-5.3 BRIDGE REPLACEMENT PROJECT

The USDA Forest Service is conducting an analysis of the Buffalo Creek #543-5.3 Bridge Replacement project. The proposed action is to be located approx. 8.5 miles southwest of Buffalo Creek, Colorado, at a bridge located on NFSR 543 on the South Platte Ranger District of the PikeSan Isabel National Forests. The project is being conducted to replace the existing ageing bridge. The Responsible Official for this decision is South Platte District Ranger Brian Banks.

The existing 18’ long, single-lane bridge is comprised of a timber superstructure with timber abutments, and is structurally deficient due to failed abutment elements. The replacement bridge will be a 37-foot long, 3-sided concrete bridge. Excavation and dewatering within the creek limits will be required for the bridge foundations and riprap bank armoring placement. The anticipated disturbance area for the bridge replacement is approximately 0.35 to 0.5 acres, extending approximately 150’ to 200’ to the north and south of the bridge along the existing roadway. Existing vegetation along the road consists mainly of grasses and shrubs/willows. Two trees adjacent to the road will be impacted. Construction staging areas are anticipated to be located within the road prism, and potentially in clearing areas adjacent to the road to the southeast and northwest of the bridge. Up to 0.4 miles of reconditioning of existing NFSR 543 south of the bridge to NFSR 550 may be included if funding allows. Additional information regarding this proposed action can also be obtained from Corey Lewenkamp, Civil Engineer, at (719) 744-7196 or via email at corey. lewenkamp@usda.gov.

A scoping period provides those parties interested in or affected by this action an opportunity to make their concerns known and raise any substantive issues for the environmental analysis. To be considered in the analysis, comments should be submitted by October 24, 2024. All written comments received by the responsible official become a matter of public record (218.25(b)(2)). Comments, including attachments, may be sent electronically via the project website: https://www. fs.usda.gov/project/?project=63010. Alternatively, comments may be filed via mail, express delivery, or messenger to: Brian Banks, District Ranger, USDA Forest Service, 30403 Kings Valley Drive, Suite 2-115, Conifer, CO 80433; Faxed to: 303-275-5642; or by hand delivery to the above address during normal business hours (Mon - Fri, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., excluding holidays).

The Responsible Official will consider all written comments received. However, in order for your comments to be most useful to the agency’s analysis, it’s important that you provide your comments prior to the close of the scoping comment period and that you clearly articulate your concerns and contentions. Comments submitted anonymously will be accepted and considered; however, anonymous comments will not provide the Agency with the ability to provide the respondent with subsequent environmental documents. For additional information, contact Corey Lewenkamp, Civil Engineer, at (719) 7447196 or via email at corey.lewenkamp@usda.gov.

Notice: Colorado Revised Statutes §14-10-123, provides that upon the filing of a Petition for Allocation of Parental Responsibilities by the Petitioner and Co-Petitioner, or upon personal service of the Petition and Summons on the Respondent, or upon waiver and acceptance of service by the Respondent, an automatic temporary injunction shall be in effect against both parties until the Final Order is entered, or the Petition is dismissed, or until further Order of the Court.

1. Are enjoined from molesting or disturbing the peace of the other party; and

2. Are restrained from removing the minor child(ren) from the state without the consent of all parties or an Order of the Court modifying the injunction; and

3. Are restrained, without at least 14 days advance notification and the written consent of all other parties or an Order of the Court, from cancelling, modifying, terminating, or allowing to lapse for nonpayment of premiums, any policy of health insurance or life insurance that provides coverage to the minor child(ren) as a beneficiary of a policy.

If you fail to file a Response in this case, any or all of the matters above, or any related matters which come before this Court, may be decided without further notice to you.

Brauchler, a longtime politician who has appeared on ballots in several elections, served eight years as DA for the 18th district, wrapping up his term in 2021. He lives in Douglas County.

Breslin, who lives in Elbert County, teaches political science at the University of Colorado Denver. She is a practicing attorney with a focus on land use and environmental law, she said.

Here’s what the candidates had to say on the DA’s role for good government, their experience and other issues.

On democracy and good governance

In Colorado Community Media’s recent survey sent to readers, many chose democracy and good government as an issue they think candidates should focus on. CCM asked candidates how they would promote those ideals if elected.

For Brauchler, it’s important to protect the election process.

“If there are threats to voters or to election workers or to the system in general,” he said, a DA has “to be aggressive in pursuing those.”

He pointed to how another DA

“And I thought that was the right answer,” Brauchler said.

Brauchler also touted what he said was a high level of transparency during his time with the 18th DA’s o ce.

e o ce published information about the checks that it signed — the taxpayer dollars it spent — for the public to scrutinize, Brauchler said.

His o ce also put out the names and demographics of everyone that got sent to prison from his jurisdiction, he said.

“I want to continue those things as the DA in the 23rd, and I think I’m uniquely positioned because I’ve done it before,” Brauchler said.

Breslin also emphasized transparency in how the DA’s o ce functions. at could include inviting the public to participate in a community and stakeholder advisory board and holding regular town halls, she said.

“Just kind of a constant stream of communication that runs both ways,” Breslin said.

She pointed to her experience as a longtime employee of the National

Deputies “immediately rendered aid” and called for an ambulance, Weekly said.

“Deputies continued to render aid, to include CPR,” Weekly said.

“ e subject was transported to an area hospital, where he died of his injuries.”

Park Service, where she served as senior policy advisor to the regional director.

“When we got crosswise with the communities, it was often because we weren’t alert to the need to communicate, and I think when there’s a lack of communication, there’s a lack of trust,” Breslin said.

Talking experience

Brauchler framed the election as about experience, saying Breslin has never been a prosecutor.

If someone allegedly commits mass murder and the case goes to trial, “it won’t be my rst one,” Brauchler said.

Brauchler’s time as DA for the 18th district was essentially bookended by shootings that horri ed the Denver suburbs: the 2012 Aurora theater shooting and the STEM School Highlands Ranch shooting in 2019.

Brauchler’s successor, John Kellner, asked him to stay on as special prosecutor for the STEM School shooting trial.

Breslin said the conversation about experience depends on how a person de nes the job of DA. She doesn’t see it as the “super prosecutor” or as a trial attorney position.

“I see the job as one of leadership — I see the job as setting policy. And that, I think, is where my credentials do shine,” Breslin said, pointing to

She mentioned mental health, domestic violence, substance use, child abuse and elder abuse as issues that a ect the DA’s o ce.

“ ose are things that show up in the criminal justice system, but they don’t start there. And so using the criminal justice system in a way that addresses those issues (is important),” she said.

It’s expensive to keep someone incarcerated, said Breslin, who wants to focus on recidivism, or the repetition of criminal behavior.

“What can we do to use that money more wisely if we know we’re kind of just cycling people through the system? ey come in, they go out and they reo end far too often,” Breslin said.

She felt that people’s mental health issues need to be addressed.

“ at doesn’t mean that the bad guys and the violent people shouldn’t go to jail. ey absolutely should. I have no tolerance for violent crime,” Breslin said, adding: “I’m talking about other kinds of crime that could be (addressed) in other ways.”
