Paranormal group visits Windsor Hotel in Silver Plume for ghost hunt

BY CHRIS KOEBERL

CKOEBERL@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e Windsor Hotel in Silver Plume recently played host to historical and paranormal tours during which some participants said they made contact with something ethereal.

e Denver-based paranormal group Dead October agreed to bring their ghost hunting equipment and national experience of paranormal-based investigations to Silver Plume Oct. 12 to bene t the sophomore class at Clear Creek High School.

“I know there is a spirit world and I know (it) is around me. I think that different people can preserve it in di erent strengths — I felt it today,” said Barb Field of North Carolina, who attended the tour with her daughter ea Rei of Georgetown.

“ at was way more educational and intimate as an experience than I anticipated — the hotel and the history and the phenomenon of ghost hunting and paranormal investigations,” Rei said.

e Windsor Hotel was burned to the ground in 1884 and rebuilt in 1902 at its current location, 515 Woodward St. by the

Lampshire family of Cornwall, England, according to Silver Plume records.

e Lampshire family experienced several unexpected and unfortunate deaths during the time they owned what had become a “miners hotel” during the period, according to records.

Along the way, the hotel was apparently frequented by guests such as Nikola Tesla and omas Edison and his son, both experts in the new eld of electricity, a key in the paranormal, according to Dead October.

Clear Creek EMS launches free CPR training, lofty goal

Team hopes to train 15% of residents in life-saving skills

BY CHRIS KOEBERL CKOEBERL@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e common phrase “serious as a heart attack” is something Clear Creek Emergency Medical Service paramedics take to heart, and their goal is to prepare as many “citizen rescuers” in the county as possible.

In an e ort to train at least 15% of county residents in the techniques and repetition of CPR, EMS will hold a public and free training session at the Clear Creek County Metropolitan Recreation Center from 1-4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26.  e di erence between “trained” and “untrained” can mean a lifetime, according to Clear Creek EMS Clinical Captain Clark Church.

“ e quicker CPR is done e ectively, the higher the chances of survival are for that person,” Church said. “ e point of CPR is to circulate oxygen through the blood to the brain, which isn’t happening when your heart isn’t beating.”

Weather Observations for Georgetown, Colorado

Week of October 7, 2024

Each day at about 8 a.m. a local National Weather Service volunteer observer makes temperature and precipitation observations at the Georgetown Weather Station and wind observations at Georgetown Lake. “Max” and “Min” temperatures are from an NWS digital “Maximum/Minimum Temperature System.” “Mean daily” temperature is the calculated average of the max and min. “Total Precipitation” is inches of rainfall plus melted snow. “Snowfall” is inches of snow that accumulated. T = Trace of precipitation or snowfall. NR = Not Reported. “Peak wind gust at Georgetown Lake” is the velocity and the time of the maximum wind gust that occurred during the 24 hours preceding the observation time. Historic data are based on the period of record for which statistical data have been compiled (about 55 years within the period 1893-2023). Any weather records noted are based on a comparison of the observed value with the historical data set.

GHOSTS

“I believe this place is a hidden gem,” Dead October investigator Castle Cage said. “It’s off the beaten path and it’s one of those locations that not a lot of people know about, but it’s so rich in history, having Nikola Tesla stay here, Thomas Edison and his son frequently stayed here. That’s something for the paranormal community to embellish in because those are the Godfathers of paranormal.”

Lauren McCullers Robinson bought the hotel and its history about 10 years ago.

“It’s life-changing,” she said.

Robinson said initially she would see “streaks of light” passing by in the house that is now a bed and breakfast, however, the “previous residents” seemed to accept her as the new owner.

“They feel very protective of the place because it has been the same family,” Robison said.

That feeling Robison said was from the start.

“In my personal opinion, I feel the house chose me as the current owner… I fell in love with it the moment I walked through the doors,” she said.

The tour itself provided a few “unexplained” phenomena, including a “stick-like” figure that appeared on a Structured Light System, outlining an unseen figure, according to Cage.

When Cage approached the figure in the bathroom, the image instantly disappeared.

Cage agreed that whoever is still there is happy with the current ownership.

“The spirits that reside here, they lived their lives here and this is probably where they want to be in their afterlife. She (Robinson) has taken such good care of this place, and I think that makes them happy,” he said.

Clear Creek High School Career Connections Coordinator Dacia Kelly set the ghost hunt up as a fundraiser for the sophomore class this year and hoped to raise several thousand dollars.

It’s certainly not a bake sale, but as

a coordinator between students and businesses at the high school, Kelly said the step outside the norm made sense.

“We wanted to partner with businesses in the community to really highlight that school and community connection and The Windsor rapidly said ‘yes,’” Kelly said, in a black period era fashioned dress, with a broach to match.

“They wanted to do something differ-

ent for sophomores, and I have a sophomore currently and I was open to the idea of it,” Robinson said.

Tour participants repeated sightings, smells and the cold brush of a hand across the face during the tour.

What’s real is relative, but it’s “just a fuller understanding of how accessible the spirit world can be if you try and are open and deliberately trying to be in-tune with it,” Reiff said.

observations rather than heated, front-line engagement,” Smith said. “Most of all, remember this: Although social platforms give prominence to the most extreme views, most vehement arguments and most radical takedowns, that’s only because they are controversy aggregators and outrage is their business model.

“Such outlooks are not necessarily representative of most people’s actual beliefs,” Smith continued.

Cultivate perspective

Connect with your support system

“We should never underestimate the value and importance of social support. If you’re feeling stressed about the political process, nding others with similar viewpoints could be a real comfort,” Smith said.

Yet, be careful not to spend too much time in groups that reinforce our sense of angst.

Smith said the rst step in stopping the cycle of catastrophizing is to recognize that you’re doing it and that going down that rabbit hole will be awful and then to nd sources of comfort.

CORRECTIONS

Colorado Trust for Local News asks readers to make us aware of mistakes we may have made.

Email linda@cotln.org if you notice a possible error you would like us to take a look at.

While it may feel safer to avoid those who disagree with you or express opposing views, Smith said having conversations with others helps us see we have more in common than we think and that exaggerated hyperbolic rhetoric doesn’t re ect the views of most Americans across the aisle.

Also, give yourself the freedom to step away from political discussions and remember what connected you in the rst place. Spending time with family or friends while leaving politics o the table cultivates connection, which is important for our mental health.

“We need to recognize that just because somebody might vote di erently, it doesn’t mean that they’re bad people,” she said.

“We de nitely need the support of other people who are like-minded, especially when the world feels threatening,” Smith said. “But when we nd ourselves in conversations stuck on the threat of what could happen, it heightens our fear and uncertainty.”

Instead, she says to focus on ways to make a di erence in your home or community and nd ways to create a sense of agency in a world that can seem out of control. at could be nding a cause to support, building relationships with people who are both like and unlike you or taking action within your community.

Find sources of comfort and focus on what you can control

“For some, it might be spiritual or faithbased. For other people, it might be more cognitive, like mindfulness-based meditation. Certainly, social relationships for almost everybody are really good,” she said.

Smith also recommends nding sources of distraction, like reading a book, going for a hike or watching a movie. While physical activity is great for relieving anxiety and depression, she said it won’t have the same e ect if you’re on the treadmill with headphones on watching MSNB or Fox News. It’s also not healthy to spend all of our time focused on the results of an election that we can’t control.

Instead, Smith said, “We have to step away from the macro level of the election and think about your values and how you can contribute to sustaining them and improving the things that are important to us closer to home.”

Technology is also changing the way residents can learn the proper CPR techniques.

Church said it’s not a guessing game of pressure and timing of compressions.

“ ey’ll learn how to perform compressions,” he said. “We have live feedback mannequins, which will show folks that they’re doing it at an adequate depth and rate.”

e American Heart Association reports there are 2,552 deaths from cardiovascular disease each day, based on 2021 data. On average, someone dies of CVD every 34 seconds in the U.S.

e Clear Creek County EMS team said their goal is to skew those numbers by becoming a “Heart Safe Community” in the eyes of the AHA by training enough “citizen rescuers” to drastically improve survival rates.

If a person dropped in front of you in public of suspected cardiac arrest, what would you do?

Knowing what to do is the key, Church said.

“We will build con dence in performing CPR if it’s ever needed,” he said. “ ey won’t feel like they don’t know what to do or they’re scared because they have some hands-on experience beforehand,”

Friends, family or strangers could at some point be life-dependent on CPR skills and you never know when, Church said.

“It allows the most viability to stay alive,” he said.

As the State Senator for a large portion of the Western Slope, protecting Colorado’s water is one of my top priorities. We secured several landmark legislative and funding victories this year to ensure Colorado’s headwaters, rivers, streams, and wetlands are supported for years to come. I was proud to serve as a prime sponsor on several major pieces of bipartisan water legislation. Here is a recap of the year’s most important e orts in water.

VOICES

Victories for Colorado’s water future

FROM YOUR LEGISLATOR

Implementing the recommendations of the Colorado River Drought Task Force I worked closely with legislative and community partners in 2023 to create the Colorado River Drought Task Force, and after their hard work, Republican Senator Perry Will and I introduced a bill to implement their recommendations. SB24-197  creates new protections for water used by our agriculture producers, increases water funding and creates incentives for more river ows to protect the natural environment.

One other key section of the bill will be especially important for Northwest Colorado’s economic transition. is new law will protect Yampa River water from abandonment as Tri-State and Xcel pursue future energy development opportunities in the area. We want to keep energy generation jobs in Northwest Colorado and securing these water rights is a crucial part to do so. I worked

‘Dracula’

Bwith key stakeholders in Mo at and Routt Counties as well as water partners across our region to ensure that those water rights stay here on the Western Slope and bene t generations of Coloradans.

Protecting Colorado’s wetlands and rivers

Last year, the United States Supreme Court overturned federal wetlands protections in  Sackett v. EPA and kicked protection of these crucial waters to the states. We stepped up in Colorado this year to do just that. anks to the leadership of Speaker Julie McCluskie, also from the Western Slope, Colorado was the rst state to restore these needed protections. It was a privilege to carry HB24-1379 along with Republican Senator Barbara Kirkmeyer. is bill is the result of feedback from dozens of organizations and individuals across the state, and works to protect our wetlands, streams, and rivers while still allowing industry, agriculture, and development to function smoothly.

Funding Colorado water projects

Each year, the legislature passes a bill to fund water conservation board projects. is year, we fought to ensure that bill contained the investment our water future deserves. We directed unprece-

dented funding levels to meet our state’s water needs in HB24-1435. We funded several projects and programs, including increased funding for our successful turf replacement program, which helps individuals transition from water-sucking turf and Kentucky bluegrass to native, water-wise landscaping.

is bill also made a crucial state investment toward protecting the Shoshone water rights on the Colorado River. Led by the Colorado River District, the state, counties, and local governments in the region partnered to secure half the funding necessary to protect Shoshone water rights, which would permanently preserve crucial water ow that supports agriculture, outdoor recreation and the environment. I recently worked with colleagues at the state legislature to send a bipartisan letter to our federal delegation, calling on them to secure the additional support and funding necessary to protect this water. Just last week, Colorado’s US Senators and many of our US Representatives announced their support for federal funding.

Other common sense conservation measures SB24-005 builds on the turf replacement program by prohibiting the installation of new nonfunctional turf. is means that we will stop installing water-sucking grass that is never used or walked on except when mowed, in any new commercial, industrial, and gov-

ernment construction. It was a privilege to lead this commonsense conservation e ort with Republican Senator Cleave Simpson.

HB24-1362 works to encourage streamlined graywater use. Graywater, which is gently used water from sinks, showers, and washing machines, can be safe and bene cial when used for yard irrigation and it reconnects our households with the natural water cycle. Previous law required that the governing body of a municipality vote to authorize the use of graywater. Under HB24-1362, which I was honored to carry with Democratic Rep. Meghan Lukens and Republican Rep. Marc Catlin, graywater will be legal to use unless a local government chooses to opt out. is shift will dramatically simplify opportunities for graywater use, giving families and communities one more tool to use in conserving water and saving money.

I am proud to have worked on these new laws, all of which have bipartisan sponsorship and support from across the state. e state legislature is more committed than ever to protecting and conserving our precious water resources, and I look forward to continuing these e orts in the coming year. As always, you can contact me directly at SenatorDylanRoberts@gmail.com or 970-846-3054. Dylan Roberts is the State Senator for Clear Creek, Eagle, Gar eld, Gilpin, Grand, Jackson, Mo at, Rio Blanco, Routt and Summit Counties.

gets a feminist revision at Arvada Center

ram Stoker’s “Dracula” is easily one of the most well-known stories in the world, one that brought the idea of vampires to the masses. And culture has never been the same since.

Over the centuries, there have been numerous ri s on this classic tale, but not many have the sharpness — both in wit and societal commentary — that Kate Hamill’s “Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy, Really,” carries. And now that show is swooping into the Arvada Center, just in time for spooky season.

“ e show is very much rooted in Stoker’s book, but audiences will get really cool twists on who end up being the protagonists in the play,” said Lance Rasmussen, who plays Jonathan Harker. “In the play, this historically terrible monster of a person is met by strong-willed and determined women who work to stop him.”

Directed by Carolyn Howarth, “Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy, Really,” runs at the Arvada Center’s Black Box eatre, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., through Sunday, Nov. 3. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday through Saturday, 1 p.m. on Wednesday, and 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

e show is an over-the-top (in the best way), gory and hilarious retelling of the Dracula story, one that takes the Victorian tropes of women’s role in society and turns them on their head.

“We decided to really lean into the

COMING ATTRACTIONS

camp aspect of the show, especially because we found some of the darker moments hit harder when they’re paired with the camp style,” Rasmussen said. “I think this is the kind of show people aren’t used to seeing in the theater. It’s a lot more cinematic, and the humor and styling are much more of a pop horror approach.”

While staging the show, there were the typical challenges, but “Dracula” is unique in all the special e ects puzzles that needed solving, including how the sprays of blood would work. All the gore and humor are not simply present for entertainment’s sake, but to help underscore the play’s key point, which is the way societal systems can be harmful to everybody.

“It’s not men against women, but instead is everybody against these problematic systems that exploit everyone,” Rasmussen said. “We want people to be thinking by the play’s end and maybe wonder what they can do to change the systems they’re involved in.”

Osi Sladek shares story of Holocaust survival at the Arvada Center

As time goes on, we’re losing more and more eye-witness survivors of the Holocaust, which means it’s crucially important to amplify their voices while they’re still willing to share their stories. In that spirit, the Arvada Center is partnering with Chabad of NW Metro Denver to present An Evening Remembering the Holocaust featuring Osi Sladek. e event will be held at the center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., at 7 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 27. Attendees will experience

Sladek’s story of survival and hope on screen, followed by a live Q&A with the man himself. He’ll also be signing copies of his memoir, “Escape to the Tatras,” from 6 to 6:50 p.m. ere will also be a special presentation of music from the Holocaust by the Red Rock String Quartet musical ensemble.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Samara Joy at the Paramount Theatre

We don’t really get jazz singers making a big splash the way they used to these days, which is a shame, because a really great jazz singer can absolutely rock you back if you let them. New York City’s Samara Joy is a great jazz singer, one who is helping to lead the way for a new generation of young jazz vocalists. In 2023, she won the Grammy for Best New Artist, and she’s just released her lovely third album, “Portrait.”

In support of the record, Joy will be stopping by the Paramount eatre, 1621 Glenarm Place in Denver, at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 30. If you’ve listened to any of Joy’s music, you know that a venue like the Paramount is perfect for her. Get tickets at www.ticketmaster.com.

Regulators pass new rules on oil and gas drilling

BY MARK JAFFE THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado oil and gas regulators passed sweeping rules to deal with the cumulative impacts of drilling and hailed it as “a big step forward.”

But legislators, environmentalists and community groups criticized the regulations for failing to protect vulnerable communities.

After a year of hearings and drafts, the Colorado Energy and Carbon Management Commission adopted about 60 pages of rules to assess and mitigate the impacts of oil and gas drilling projects — an exercise the commission was mandated to do by the legislature.

“ is has been a herculean e ort,” ECMC Chairman Je Robbins said. “We have the most protective oil and gas regulations in the nation, and this builds on that foundation. It puts in place even stronger protections for Colorado families.”

Critics did not see it that way. “Doesn’t require any more than is required now and it creates a roadmap for how an operator can drill in disproportionately impacted communities,” said Michael Freeman, an attorney for the environmental group Earthjustice.

ese communities are low-income, of color, have vulnerable populations or face disproportionate environmental burdens.

“It’s time we prioritize health,” said Rachael Lehman, environmental justice coordinator for Black Parents United Foundation. “For too long economic impacts have been the only metric for success and been a guiding principle in permitting.”

One major point of contention was a requirement in a June draft that an operator seeking to drill within 2,000 feet of homes in a disproportionately impacted community, or DIC, obtain the consent of every resident.

e provision drew re from the industry, which argued it could make the development of oil and gas reserves near impossible. It was dropped in the August draft upon which the nal rules are based. at move drew a letter from 22 legislators saying the August draft o ered inadequate protections to disproportionately impact communities, failing to meet the goals set by state law.

In 2020, the commission adopted a rule requiring a 2,000-foot setback of drilling from homes and schools, unless an operator added measures that o ered “substantially equivalent” protections as provided by the setback.

In the past two years, however, nearly half of the 87 oil and gas development plans approved on the Front Range, primarily in the shale-rich DJ Basin, were within 2,000 feet of homes, according to the ECMC’s annual evaluation of cumulative impacts.

“ e commission adopted a setback in 2020 with great fanfare, but they haven’t been enforcing it,” said Freeman, the Earthjustice attorney.

Most drilling will be in disproportionately impacted communities

In testimony during the cumulative impacts hearings, Julia Rhine, an attorney representing Civitas Resources, said “just because of the nature of the DJ Basin and where mineral resources are located … lots of locations, perhaps the majority of locations we believe will be in DICs.”

State Rep. Elizabeth Velasco, a Glenwood Springs Democrat and sponsor of a cumulative impacts and environmental justice law and a signatory of the critical letter to the commission, said the rules fall short of protecting vulnerable communities.

“We did hear that a couple things were addressed around the bu er zones and environmental justice, but there are still things that concern us,” Velasco said. “We have to continue to work on legislation. If they can’t do this through rulemaking we are going to have to have more prescriptive legislation.”

e rules require operators to assess the impacts of their drill sites within a mile of their pads and for water resources up to 2½ miles away, 5 miles if it potentially impacts drinking water supplies.

e problem is that it leases the role of assessing cumulative impacts to oil and gas operators who have no environmental or health expertise but do have a bias, said Heidi Leathwood, a climate policy analyst with the environmental group 350 Colorado.

Leathwood also criticized the decision to limit the scope of the assessment to a mile “despite receiving evidence that fracking emissions are linked to health impacts well over one mile away from oil and gas facilities.”

To mitigate impacts, the rules call for best management practices and enhanced systems and practices — where applicable.

e ECMC will also help the Air Pollution Control Division enforce the division’s methane intensity rule, which puts a limit on emission per barrel of oil and gas equivalent produced.

e rules create the position of community liaison to aid communities with operators and with the commission, as well as stronger requirements for noti cations and meetings with the community.

“ e procedural measures for disproportionately impacted communities, and the air pollution intensity regulations are steps in the right direction,” said Andrew Forkes-Gudmundson, senior manager for state policy at Earthworks. “But without substantive protections and quotative limits, procedure protections do not mean a whole lot in practice.”

Goalposts “repeatedly moved” over five years of rulemaking

e response from industry was mixed.

“ e suite of rules adopted today is the result of a statutory directive to further protect disproportionately impacted communities and we are hopeful they will function as intended,” Kait Schwartz, director of API Colorado, a trade group, said in a statement.

But Schwartz added that the industry has faced ve years in constant rulemaking while “state lawmakers have repeatedly moved the goalposts on regulatory regime.”

e Colorado Oil and Gas Association, the state’s largest trade group, said in a statement that while the new rule is “a notable improvement from the original draft, the commission continues to make it increasingly di cult for smaller oil and gas companies in Colorado to operate by, once again, adding endless obstacles in the permitting process.”

Colorado’s byways o er views, history

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Some might say that what’s important is the journey, not the destination — and if you travel in Colorado, you might encounter roads that are considered “destinations unto themselves.”

ose include a couple of Colorado’s more than two dozen designated byways: signi cant roads that are, for many Coloradans, o the beaten path. Around the state, those roads are marked as byways because they hold archeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational or scenic qualities.

“We protect those intrinsic qualities,” said Lenore Bates, who manages Colorado’s byways program.

e routes drive economic activity, too. e roads attract travelers, said Bates, adding that they can be “like a bucket list” item.

“Just like the national parks,” Bates said. People “will arrive just to do that byway.” e routes mark the map around Colorado, with some falling close to Denver and others sitting a longer drive away. Here’s a look at the state’s byways system and information about the roads.

Decades of byways

Colorado’s Scenic and Historic Byways program works to protect and promote the byways, Bates said.

Nationally, in the 1960s, “there was a lot of interest in outdoor recreation, and then in the 70s, it got put on the back burner,” Bates said.

Colorado’s byways program started in 1989, Bates said.

At the federal level, the National Scenic Byways program was created in 1991. It’s an e ort to help recognize, preserve and enhance selected roads around the country, according to a federal news release.

ere are 13 of Colorado’s 26 byways designated at the federal level as America’s Byways, which gives Colorado more national designations than any other state, according to the state program’s webpage.

‘Grassroots’ involvement

Each of Colorado’s byways has its own local organization that helps take care of and oversee the roads.

ose groups can fall under other entities, such as a county, a national park or national heritage area, or they could be a nonpro t, Bates said.

“So they’re very grassroots,” Bates said, adding: “A lot of them are, of course, volunteers who have full-time jobs.”

Byway groups might be involved in making updates to outdated resources, a visitor center or a rest area, for example.

“We’re trying to get everything ADA accessible or accessible for people who need visual resources,” Bates said, referring to the Americans with Disabilities Act.

One challenge the byways community faces is updating the kiosks — boards with historical information that people can pull over and read, Bates said.

“Unfortunately, a lot of those stories are outdated, and the language is not always up to current view,” Bates said. “And they might be missing somebody’s story on that storyline — it might be one-sided. So we’re trying to get those stories updated slowly. It’s a huge endeavor.”

“We need to get tribal input and other organizations to give those stories,” she added.

Overall, Colorado’s byways program is managed by a governor-appointed commission of up to 15 members, including representatives from a variety of government bodies, Bates said.

Money for taking care of Colorado’s byways comes from a mix of federal and state government sources, as well as local fundraising, Bates said.

‘All-American’ travel

Some byways get a special designation as an “All-American Road.”

To be highlighted with that title, a byway must meet criteria for at least two of the “intrinsic” qualities that are nationally signi cant and have one-of-a-kind features that do not exist elsewhere, according to the federal byways webpage.

“ e road or highway must also be considered a ‘destination unto itself,’” the webpage says. “ at is, the road must provide an exceptional traveling experience so recognized by travelers that they would make a drive along the (road) a primary reason for their trip.”

Colorado has two All-American Roads: Trail Ridge Road, running between Estes Park and Grand Lake, and San Juan Skyway, which runs in the Durango and Telluride areas.

In general, the last time Colorado designated a new byway was in 2014, when Tracks Across Borders Byway was designated between Durango and Chama, New Mexico, Bates said.

Colorado’s byways include paved and unpaved roads. All of them have access to local recreation, such as trailheads, state parks or national parks, Bates said.

“Some of them have parallel paths on a portion of the corridor — for example, along the West Elk Loop is the Crystal Valley Trail” in the Carbondale area, Bates said.

Some of the byways host cycling events, such as Ride the Rockies, Bates added.

Colorado’s Naloxone Fund Is Drying Up, Even as Opioid Settlement Money Rolls In

On a bustling street corner one recent afternoon outside the o ces of the Harm Reduction Action Center, employees of the education and advocacy nonpro t handed out free naloxone kits to passersby.

Distributing the opioid reversal medication is essential to the center’s work to reduce fatal overdoses in the community. But how long the group can continue doing so is in question. e center depends on Colorado’s Opioid Antagonist Bulk Purchase Fund, also known as the Naloxone Bulk Purchase Fund, which now lacks a recurring source of money — despite hundreds of millions of dollars in national opioid lawsuit settlement cash owing into the state.

“Our concern is that we won’t have access to naloxone, and that means that more people will die of a very preventable overdose,” said Lisa Raville, executive director of the center.

e bulk fund was created in 2019 to provide free naloxone to organizations like the Harm Reduction Action Center.

e fund’s annual budget grew from just over $300,000 in scal year 2019 to more than $8.5 million in scal 2022, according to legislative reports by the state’s Overdose Prevention Unit.

e fund has boosted the availability of the medication throughout Colorado, which passed a law in 2013 that gives legal immunity to medical providers who prescribe the drug and to any person who administers it to someone su ering an overdose. e fund currently provides more than $550,000 worth of naloxone kits to various entities each month.

Despite the increased availability of naloxone, fatal opioid overdoses continued to rise. In 2023, 1,292 people in Colorado died of an opioid overdose, according to data from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. at was 132 more people than the year before.

And now, one of the fund’s major money sources, the American Rescue Plan passed by Congress in response to the covid-19 pandemic, is set to expire next year. As of September, the Colorado fund had $8.6 million left, according to Vanessa Bernal, a spokesperson for the state health department.

e fund got a boost in September when the state’s Behavioral Health Ad-

ministration provided it with $3 million from a one-time Substance Use Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery Services Block Grant and nearly $850,000 through a State Opioid Response Grant. Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser said his ofce will “ensure that the necessary budget remains in place for the next year.”

e amount of that funding and where it will come from has yet to be determined, and long-term solutions are still being

weighed, as well. One option to shore up the fund beyond the next year is to use Colorado’s share of settlement funds from the national opioid lawsuits, said Mary Sylla, former director of overdose prevention policy and strategy at the National Harm Reduction Coalition.

“It’s just completely ironic that something that addresses the opioid overdose crisis is underfunded at the very same time that these settlement funds are ow-

ing,” Sylla said. “ ere couldn’t be a better use for them.”

As of July, Colorado had received and distributed more than $110 million in opioid settlement money to regions, local governments, state entities, and infrastructure projects, according to the Colorado attorney general’s o ce, and the total is expected to reach more than $750

Doses of the opioid reversal medication naloxone are displayed for distribution by the Harm Reduction Action Center in August outside the nonprofit’s Denver o ces. Last year, the center received 7,284 doses from Colorado’s Naloxone Bulk Purchase Fund, which now lacks a recurring source of revenue. PHOTO BY CLAIRE CLEVELAND FOR KFF HEALTH NEWS

Millions of aging Americans are facing dementia by themselves

BY JUDITH GRAHAM KFF HEALTH NEWS

Sociologist Elena Portacolone was taken aback. Many of the older adults in San Francisco she visited at home for a research project were confused when she came to the door. ey’d forgotten the appointment or couldn’t remember speaking to her.

It seemed clear they had some type of cognitive impairment. Yet they were living alone.

Portacolone, an associate professor at the University of California-San Francisco, wondered how common this was. Had anyone examined this group? How were they managing?

When she reviewed the research literature more than a decade ago, there was little there. “I realized this is a largely invisible population,” she said.

Portacolone got to work and now leads the Living Alone With Cognitive Impairment Project at UCSF. e project estimates that that at least 4.3 million people 55 or older who have cognitive impairment or dementia live alone in the United States.

About half have trouble with daily activities such as bathing, eating, cooking, shopping, taking medications, and managing money, according to their research. But only 1 in 3 received help with at least one such activity.

Compared with other older adults who live by themselves, people living alone with cognitive impairment are older, more likely to be women, and disproportionately Black or Latino, with lower levels of education, wealth, and homeownership. Yet only 21% qualify for publicly funded programs such as Medicaid that pay for aides to provide services in the home.

In a health care system that assumes older adults have family caregivers to help them, “we realized this population is destined to fall through the cracks,” Portacolone said.

Imagine what this means. As memory and thinking problems accelerate, these seniors can lose track of bills, have their electricity shut o , or be threatened with eviction. ey might stop shopping (it’s too overwhelming) or cooking (it’s too hard to follow recipes). Or they might be unable to communicate clearly or navigate automated phone systems.

A variety of other problems can ensue, including social isolation, malnutrition, self-neglect, and susceptibility to scams. Without someone to watch over them, older adults on their own may experience worsening health without anyone noticing or struggle with dementia without ever being diagnosed.

Should vulnerable seniors live this way?

For years, Portacolone and her collaborators nationwide have followed nearly 100 older adults with cognitive impairment who live alone. She listed some concerns people told researchers they worried most about: “Who do I trust? When is the next time I’m going to forget? If I think I need more help, where do I nd it? How do I hide my forgetfulness?”

Jane Lowers, an assistant professor at the Emory University School of Medicine, has been studying “kinless” adults in the

early stages of dementia — those without a live-in partner or children nearby. eir top priority, she told me, is “remaining independent for as long as possible.”

Seeking to learn more about these seniors’ experiences, I contacted the National Council of Dementia Minds. e organization last year started a biweekly online group for people living alone with dementia. Its sta ers arranged a Zoom conversation with ve people, all with early-to-moderate dementia.

One was Kathleen Healy, 60, who has signi cant memory problems and lives alone in Fresno, California.

“One of the biggest challenges is that people don’t really see what’s going on with you,” she said. “Let’s say my house is a mess or I’m sick or I’m losing track of my bills. If I can get myself together, I can walk out the door and nobody knows what’s going on.”

An administrator with the city of Fresno for 28 years, Healy said she had to retire in 2019 “because my brain stopped working.” With her pension, she’s able to cover her expenses, but she doesn’t have significant savings or assets.

Healy said she can’t rely on family members who have troubles of their own. (Her 83-year-old mother has dementia and lives with Healy’s sister.) e person who checks on her most frequently is an ex-boyfriend.

“I don’t really have anybody,” she said, choking up.

David West, 62, is a divorced former social worker with Lewy body dementia, which can impair thinking and concentration and cause hallucinations. He lives alone in an apartment in downtown Fort Worth, Texas.

“I will not survive this in the end — I know that — but I’m going to meet this with resilience,” he said when I spoke with him by phone in June.

Since his diagnosis nearly three years ago, West has lled his life with exercise and joined three dementia support groups. He spends up to 20 hours a week volunteering, at a restaurant, a food bank, a museum, and Dementia Friendly Fort Worth.

Still, West knows that his illness will progress and that this period of relative independence is limited. What will he do then? Although he has three adult children, he said, he can’t expect them to take him in and become dementia caregivers — an extraordinarily stressful, timeintensive, nancially draining commitment.

“I don’t know how it’s going to work out,” he said.

Denise Baker, 80, a former CIA analyst, lives in a 100-year-old house in Asheville, North Carolina, with her dog, Yolo. She has cognitive problems related to a stroke 28 years ago, Alzheimer’s disease, and serious vision impairment that prevents her from driving. Her adult daughters live in Massachusetts and Colorado.

“I’m a very independent person, and I nd that I want to do everything I possibly can for myself,” Baker told me, months before Asheville was ravaged by severe ooding. “It makes me feel better about myself.”

A remembrance of Jim Green, who helped millions ‘hoooold on’ at DIA

Denver-based sound artist died in September

BY KATHRYN CHARLES SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Jim Green was a towering gure in the art world, known mostly for his public art sound sculptures in airports, city sidewalks, and museums.

On Sept. 11, Jim slipped away from Earth in the same manner he approached his art: subtly catching us all by surprise through his positive a rmations, greetings and unexpected sounds that brought joy to passersby.

Jim Green, a CU graduate with a masters in ne arts, was the “Mr. Rogers” of the art world.

Green was probably the rst to record creative messages for public transportation, including the greetings on the train at Denver International Airport, on rapid transit in Salt Lake City, and in Fort Collins.

Jim instructed us to “HOLD ON, the train is departing,” using the voices of Alan Roach, Reynelda Muse, Peyton Manning and Lindsay Vonn. His chimes between messages were homemade from various plumbing pipes and early synthesizers.

Green’s notable “Singing Sinks” at the Denver Art Museum revolutionized the public’s experience of hand washing when they unexpectedly triggered a trio of three sinks singing “Row, Row, Row Your Boat.”

Green recorded all the sounds connected to the Martin Luther King Memorial in Denver’s City Park, where people gather annually on King’s birthday for the an-

nual MLK ‘Marade’ down Colfax to Civic Center Park.

Jim loved working with the sound of water, and his “Talking Drinking Fountains” in Seattle’s Airport continues to amuse thirsty travelers.

“Sound Walk” along Curtis Street next

to Denver’s Federal Reserve building transported pedestrians from their heady thoughts through recordings of subway trains, yodeling, and cow mooing mysteriously seeping out of sidewalk grates.

Visitors attending a multitude of Colorado Convention Center gatherings en-

joyed the sound of laughter on a usually boring escalator ride up to the second oor.

e “Talking Trash Cans” in front of the Arvada Center welcomed visitors with greetings of positive a rmations including “I like your shoes,” or “You look great today!”

Perhaps one of the most complicated projects was Green’s “Talking Parking Meters” placed in the market place at Denver’s Central Park. Coins went toward Hickenlooper’s Road Home Project bene ting unhoused people.

“Unplugged,” installed in Denver’s Museum of Contemporary Art, consisted of pneumatic compressors activating the rich, various noises of Whoopie Cushions pressed automatically under plexiglass, again triggered by motion. It is one of the museum’s most successful long-running exhibitions.

“ e Red Phone” installed at Redline made a direct connection with Green, who was willing to talk to his audience one at a time, live.

Jim Green was listening.

Jim Green was a keen observer of human nature peculiarity. His early recordings and research led him to travel the country one summer to document the sounds of amusement parks and state fairs. He amassed a catalogue of people working at sideshows, recording their shticks and their stories.

Green’s positive spin on a dark world brought a little more humanity to our lives. His message to the world was clear, concise, positive and playful. He reminded us to be present, listen to the world around us, and most of all, not take ourselves too seriously.

Jim Green, who created sound designs in public spaces around the Denver metro area, died Sept. 11. COURTESY OF KATHRYN CHARLES

Colored Halloween trick-or-treat buckets send mixed messages

BY HALEY LENA HLENA@COLORADOCOMMUNTIYMEDIA.COM

A jack-o’-lantern candy bucket is an essential when it comes to trick-or-treating. And through the years, the di erent colored candy buckets have taken on speci c meanings with a goal to bring awareness to various medical conditions. However, some of the movements have gained criticism.

e idea of inclusion was the premise of the Blue Bucket for Autism , which stems from 2018 after a parent posted on Facebook that her autistic son would be trickor-treating with a blue bucket. It ignited a national movement.

Movements aimed at bringing awareness are wonderful, said Keri Sawyer, a child therapist and owner of Bloom Child erapists in Parker. But, parents shouldn’t feel like they have to take part, she added.

“I don’t think that at any point a child or their parents should feel like they need to have a speci c color bucket or disclose any speci c information about their child in order to receive empathy and acceptance,” said Sawyer.

While the movement was created to promote awareness for trick-or-treaters with autism and those who are nonspeaking, some say that children shouldn’t have to “advertise” their medical diagnosis just

loween.

National movement aims to create inclusion for all children, but some criticize it SEE BUCKETS, P18

to be included fairly.

“If our children could thrive on good intentions, then the blue ‘autism’ Halloween buckets would be a wild success,” said Brittany Yarbrough, a Littleton mom. “Unfortunately, that’s just not how it works.”

Yarbrough understands the challenges as her son has motor planning di culties and hypotonia, a condition that causes decreased muscle tone.

Autism is a bio-neurological developmental disability and impacts one’s social interaction, communication skills and cognitive function. It a ects one in 36 children, according to the National

Autism Association. While autism varies person to person, about 40% of children with autism do not speak.

Elizabeth Bennet, a psychologist at Children’s Hospital Colorado, said Halloween can be di cult for a lot of people for various reasons, including it being a change of routine or it creating social anxiety.

While she believes the idea of the colored buckets movement can be helpful to raise awareness for certain medical conditions or disabilities, she doesn’t think that trick-or-treaters should have to carry some sort of marker that identi es their diagnosis in order to have the same access that every other child does on Hal-

“In my imaginary ideal world, everybody has awareness that we don’t know each other’s whole story, and that people can behave di erently for a lot of di erent reasons, and that we don’t get to set expectations for other people,” said Bennet.

“We don’t live in that ideal world yet.”

Jessica Vestal, whose son is nonverbal and has trouble performing tasks, has watched as adults have told her son, “no candy until you say trick-or-treat!”

“Whether they are unable to say trickor-treat, have to use an AAC device, have no way to say it at all or are carrying a specially-colored pumpkin, each kid deserves to participate in something fun,” said Vestal.

Both Vestal and Yarbrough believe the movement was created with good intentions, but wonder why there needs to be a color-coded system to be accepting and inclusive of all abilities. Yarbrough added that displaying a child’s diagnosis has the potential to increase the risk that the child will be mistreated or bullied.

“I love when people choose to sit at the end of their driveway to hand out treats, since narrow walkways and steps to the front door are di cult to manage for those in wheelchairs or (those who have) mobility issues,” said Yarbrough.

Having worked with neurodivergent children, Sawyer has had parents ask her about the di erent colored buckets. She said it should be more about“if they would like to, not that they should have to — and let the child lead on that decision.

Similar to Bennet, Sawyer hopes that

BUCKETS

people answering doors will answer with empathy and a willingness to be accepting of all individuals and use Halloween as a time to show kindness to neighbors.

For three consecutive years, Sawyer participated in the Town of Parker’s Trunk or Treat event because she enjoys the opportunity to allow families to have a little more control of the environment. She appreciates the inclusivity that the rst hour of the event is sensory-friendly because it creates a safer and more accessible environment.

Whether a family chooses to carry a blue bucket to raise awareness of autism or if they feel uncomfortable with it, Sawyer encourages letting the child lead on how they want to do Halloween.

“ ere’s no wrong way of doing it,” said Sawyer. “So having a good time within your child’s capacity is really important.”

Other color meanings

Children may carry a di erent colored bucket because it’s their favorite color. But, these colors have taken on meanings. For example, pink for breast cancer awareness and red for driving under the in uence.

In 2012, after facing challenges due to having epilepsy, a young boy in Connecticut wanted to raise awareness for the medical condition. He decided to paint a pumpkin purple and his family shared it on Facebook. With more than 3.4 million people living with epilepsy in the country, the initiative soon gained national recognition and the Epilepsy Foundation launched the Purple Pumpkin Project.  Colored pumpkins can also be seen on people’s front porches to indicate to trickor-treaters and their families that it is an

inclusive home. Besides the traditional orange pumpkins, another common color to see is teal.

e Teal Pumpkin Project was created to promote food safety and inclusion of those who have food allergies.

According to the Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention, one in 13 children have a food allergy. erefore, having options other than candy helps children feel included. Non-edible treat ideas include Halloween erasers, novelty toys, vampire fangs, spider rings and bouncy balls.

e Food Allergy Research and Education nonpro t organization provides a map of houses that have non-food treats as well as free printable signs, ideas for non-food treats and facts about di erent types of candy. ese can be found at tinyurl.com/5eac8f4c.

She was lucky in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene: Baker lives on a hill in West Asheville that was untouched by oodwaters. In the week immediately after the storm, she lled water jugs every day at an old well near her house and brought them back in a wheelbarrow. ough her power was out, she had plenty of food and neighbors looked in on her.

“I’m absolutely ne,” she told me on the phone in early October after a member of Dementia Friendly Western North Carolina drove to Baker’s house to check in on her, upon my request. Baker is on the steering committee of that organization. Baker once found it hard to ask for assistance, but these days she relies routinely on friends and hired help. A few examples: Elaine takes her grocery shopping every Monday. Roberta comes once a month to help with her mail and nances. Jack mows her lawn. Helen o ers care management advice. Tom, a cab driver she connected with through Buncombe County’s transportation program for seniors, is her

go-to guy for errands.

Her daughter Karen in Boston has the authority to make legal and health care decisions when Baker can no longer do so. When that day comes — and Baker knows it will — she expects her long-term care insurance policy to pay for home aides or memory care. Until then, “I plan to do as much as I can in the state I’m in,” she said.

Much can be done to better assist older adults with dementia who are on their own, said Elizabeth Gould, co-director of the National Alzheimer’s and Dementia Resource Center at RTI International, a nonpro t research institute. “If health care providers would just ask ‘Who do you live with?’” she said, “that could open the door to identifying who might need more help.”

She has cognitive problems related to a stroke 28 years ago, Alzheimer’s disease, and serious vision impairment.

BUYER BEWARE TAX LIEN SALE

On May 13 2024, Governor Polis signed House Bill 24-1056 into law. This act is the legislature’s response to the unanimous U.S. Supreme Court decision in Tyler v. Hennepin County, a decision that the Colorado Attorney General suggested placed the constitutionality of Colorado’s Treasurer’s Deed process into question. While it’s important to note that the legislation did not change the tax lien process and the interest earned if/when redeemed, the changes to the Treasurer’s Deed process are substantial. This House Bill became effective July 01, 2024

million by 2038.

However, more than half of the settlement money Colorado has received thus far has already been disbursed to its 19 Regional Opioid Abatement Councils, which have created their own plans to distribute money to programs such as substance abuse treatment centers, public education campaigns, and training for emergency providers.

For example, Denver’s council, which has received more than $18 million since 2022, has disbursed money to organizations in two- and three-year contracts, the majority not including the purchase of naloxone.

“We thought we could all continue to get [naloxone] from the state health department and the Naloxone Bulk Purchase Fund,” Raville said.

e Denver council is working on a plan for the coming years, expected to come out in mid-2025, and is considering the bulk fund’s dwindling money, said Marie Curran, program coordinator for Denver’s opioid abatement funds.

Lawrence Pacheco, a spokesperson for the attorney general’s o ce, which man-

ages 10% of the state’s opioid settlement dollars, said the o ce “is working on options to ensure that this lifesaving medication can continue to be part of the state’s e ort to abate the opioid crisis.” ose options have not yet been made public. California, where Sylla works, has used settlement money for a distribution program that’s similar to Colorado’s. In Washington and Kentucky, as part of the states’ settlements with Teva Pharmaceuticals, tens of thousands of free naloxone kits will be available to residents. Each state uses its opioid settlement funds di erently, and while many provide naloxone to residents in some manner, including via vending machines, there is no central tracking of naloxone distribution programs.

Over the past ve years, Colorado’s fund has distributed more than half a million doses of the opioid reversal drug to hundreds of organizations and schools across the state. Last year, the Harm Reduction Action Center received 7,284 doses from the fund, which Raville estimates helped save more than 4,500 lives.

Unless additional money is found, the bulk fund runs the risk of having to further limit distribution, leaving the hundreds of organizations that rely on it with little or no access to free naloxone. While the medication became available over the

THEREFORE, Notice Is Hereby Given that I will at public auction, at 11:00 A.M. on Thursday, 11/21/2024, at The Clear Creek County Public Trustee’s Office, 405 Argentine Street, Georgetown, Colorado, sell to the highest and best bidder for cash, the said real property and all interest of the said Grantor(s), Grantor(s)’ heirs and assigns therein, for the purpose of paying the indebtedness provided in said Evidence of Debt secured by the Deed of Trust, plus attorneys’ fees, the expenses of sale and other items allowed by law, and will issue to

counter nationally last fall, the $45 price tag per two-dose package means it can remain out of reach for some who need it most.

In May, the state announced a plan for prioritizing which groups get the medication from the bulk fund, with four categories, from “essential” to “low need,” based on how frequently an entity directly encounters people who are most at risk of experiencing or witnessing an overdose.

e Harm Reduction Action Center has been classi ed in the “essential” category. School districts, as well as colleges and universities, are in the next-highest category.

Another organization, e Naloxone Project, said it was misclassi ed by not being put at the highest priority level. As a result, it said, it received just 1,200 naloxone doses from the fund this year, instead of the 6,000 it requested.

“We would argue that we would fall under ‘essential’ because many of our programs are public-facing and consistently provide naloxone for people who use drugs and who are at the highest risk of experiencing overdose,” said Rachael Duncan, associate director of e Naloxone Project.

e group, which has chapters in 12 states, provides nasal and injectable forms of naloxone to more than 90% of

Colorado’s hospitals, to give to patients before they are discharged from the emergency department or from labor and delivery units. More than half of the 12,000 naloxone kits the project has distributed to Colorado medical entities have come from the bulk fund.

Another organization, UCHealth’s Center for Dependency, Addiction and Rehabilitation, known as CeDAR, which o ers residential, outpatient, and telehealth treatment, is no longer eligible to receive free naloxone, because its patients typically are insured or can pay out-of-pocket.

Karli Yarnell, a CeDAR physician assistant, said that even when someone can pay for it, that doesn’t mean they can get to a pharmacy to pick up the medicine. And Duncan is concerned about what the loss of doses will mean for organizations like e Naloxone Project and CeDAR.

“What I fear will happen is a scarcity mindset of organizations competing for funding,” Duncan said. “But I also worry about places that are used to getting it so reliably running out.”

A Sign of the Times: Zillow Shows Climate Risk Data for

I was as shocked as anyone to hear that Asheville, North Carolina, had been devastated by flooding from Hurricane Helene. It is over 300 miles inland from the Atlantic coast and on the western slope of the Appalachian mountain range. It is 2,100 feet above sea level.

To those of us who comfort ourselves that we are in a haven from climate change, this should be a wake-up call.

Zillow heard that wake-up call and recently introduced a “Climate Risk” assessment for all active listings on its website. At right are charts you’ll find if you search on Zillow for my listing at 48 Lang Street in Twin Lakes, Colorado, at the eastern foot of Independence Pass. I’m only showing the Flood risk map, but there are comparable maps for Fire, Wind, Air Quality and Heat risks by clicking on the buttons you see at the top left of the map.

younger home shoppers, who are driving the market. The median age of today's home buyer is 39, and first-time buyers make up 50% of all buyers. Millennial and Gen Z shoppers who comprise 54% of all home buyers are most likely to consider a climate risk when determining where to shop for a home. Across generations, a majority of shoppers reported taking into account at least one climate risk when looking for their next home.”

Although 86% of Millennials are likely to consider climate risks when searching for a home, the average for all groups is 83%, with Baby Boomers the lowest at 70%. Bottom line: it’s a big concern for everyone, and we need to take notice.

All Active Listings

“Climate risks are now a critical factor in home-buying decisions,” said Skylar Olsen, chief economist at Zillow.

It was a year ago last month that Zillow released a report stating that “A clear majority of prospective buyers in each region of the United States consider at least one climate risk when shopping for a home.” In the Midwest the percentage was 77% and in the West it was 90%.

Such risks were of least concern, surprisingly, to prospective buyers in the South, including Florida, but I suspect that may change after recent hurricanes.

The Sept. 2023 report continued: “Climate risks are a major concern for

The data source for Zillow is First Street, which provides climate risk data across multiple industries, including government, banking, and insurance.

First Street’s analysis of the destruction caused by August’s Cat-1 hurricane Debby found that 78% of flooded properties were outside FEMA’s flood zones.

According to Zillow, “First Street is the standard for climate risk financial modeling (CRFM) working to connect climate change to financial risk. First Street uses transparent, peer-reviewed methodologies to calculate the past, present, and future climate risk for properties globally, and makes it available for citizens, industry and government.”

rently for sale. However, you could look for a nearby home that is for sale and find your home on the maps such as the one above.

Years ago, I learned couple important things about flood insurance. First, for water damage to be covered by regular homeowners insurance, the water can’t hit the ground before entering your house. If the water hits the ground first, it is considered flooding and is only covered by flood insurance.

However, even flood insurance does not cover a finished basement. It will cover anything in your basement, such as a furnace and water heater, that serves the above-grade floors, but it will not cover below-grade walls, floors or furnishings.

Climate risk information is currently available on Zillow’s iPhone app and on the Zillow website, with Android availability expected early next year.

Take Pictures of Your Home Before the Snow Falls

Even if you don’t expect to put your home on the market this winter, it’s a good idea to have exterior pictures of your home and yard which the grass is green and the leaves are on the trees. If you have trees which blossom in the spring, make a note to take a picture then too.

“Life happens,” and it’s good to be prepared to show your home at its best.

Golden Real Estate’s Broker Associates

Last week, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) had a newsletter item that caught my attention.

Covid had, of course, increased the importance of making listings more attractive to potential buyers who might not be able to visit the home in person.

The newsletter article pointed out that, just like work-at-home, buying without seeing a home in person is still a thing.

It quoted a 2022 survey of 1,000 homeowners by Lending Tree which showed that 47% of them bought without an in-person tour of the property.

We already know that the vast majority well over 90% of buyers begin their home search online and only call an agent when they want to see a home. During Covid, that meant in some cases a FaceTime tour of the home by a showing agent. (We were “essential workers.”)

Americans got so used to Zoom meetings and working virtually during Covid that many of them still prefer Zoom meetings, and that translates into wanting to see a home virtually before making an offer.

What the article failed to mention was

that most of those buyers probably did attend the professional inspection of the home after going under contract, but the fact remains that a good online presence is what got that home under contract.

The article mentioned some of the technological tools, in addition to FaceTime, which have allowed listing agents to dramatically improve the online presentation of their listings, thereby allowing buyers to feel comfortable with submitting an offer prior to seeing the listing in person.

Matterport’s interactive still photos linked to a floor plan was one of those technologies. It allows a person, with their computer mouse, to rotate each still photo 360 degrees and even look at the ceiling and floor.

What wasn’t mentioned, and shocked me by its absence, was the mention of narrated video tours, which my broker associates and I create for every residential listing! What could be more useful than being able to walk through a home with the listing agent describing all its features basically simulating an inperson showing?
