Columbine Valley gets new leadership McCrumb takes over from Jennings at town hall By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews. com For the first time in 16 years, Columbine Valley has a new town administrator. JD McCrumb took the reins from Ann Jennings on July 1 after spending a month learning the ropes from her.

“One of the hard parts of following someone who’s been here for 16 years is losing that institutional knowledge,” he said. “There’s certainly a long learning curve. I’m poring through files and digging through drawers. I hired a parttime file clerk to help with that. Ann did not need to look it up, she just knew it. I don’t have that luxury.” McCrumb has recently worked as data analyst for FEMA and campaign manager for Montana Republican Wil-

He served as a steering committee co-chair for Leadership Douglas County, and spent nearly a year as the community

relations and program coordinator for Historic Denver Inc. He’s been on Town Hall Arts Center’s board since December, and is in the process of moving to Littleton with his wife, Briana, and baby daughter, McKenzie. He’s a native of the south-metro area, where his parents and two grandmothers still reside. A 1998 graduate of Arapahoe High School, he spent a lot of time on the drum line in marching band and a little time in theater. Then he

Things are looking up for the city’s financial situation, according to the 2014 proposed budget prepared by city staff. “The combination of tight fiscal policy and slightly better revenues over the last few years has resulted in the general fund having a healthy 2013 projected ending fund balance,” writes City Manager Michael Penny in the overview. “Even though recent revenue results are positive, the city is taking a temperate financial outlook for 2014.” According to the document, the city expects to take in about $52.5 million next year, a 4.2 percent increase over what it expects to take in this year. Sales and use taxes, the city’s major revenue source, are expected to near $28 million in 2014, up from a recent low of about $22 million in 2010. Most of the general fund goes to personnel expenses, which will be about $38 million in 2014. Penny has proposed a 3 percent increase for city employees, though a citizens’ committee is in the process of reviewing how it would be distributed to remain a competitive employer. “Salaries have been fairly anemic,” said Erich Won Savage, human resources director, as council reviewed the proposed budget Sept. 10. “I would say right now we’re barely keeping pace.” He pointed out that the city will see no increase in its health-care costs next year, as wellness programs and an employee-health clinic have helped rein in expenses. A proposal to give the new city attorney a $52,000 raise fell on ambivalent ears. Council just approved a contract

September 19, 2013

Have a seat and meet the neighbors Soon after Kelli and Mark Kolar moved into their two-story home on Hughes Place 18 years ago, The Bench became part of a purposeful plan: to make a gathering place. “Everybody was always outside,” Kelli remembers, “and it was a place where you could sit and relax and watch the kids and catch up with your neighbors.” They bought a bench made of teak, a sturdy but beautiful wood known for its ability to endure all kinds of weather. At the front of the yard, to the right of the driveway and next to the sidewalk, Mark attached it to cinder blocks buried in the ground, so pranksters couldn’t run away with it some night. They planted a pine tree behind it and bushes on each side. “One of the intentions of The Bench,” Kelli says, “was that anyone could go and use it.” And we did. For years, the children would play in the cul-de-sac and we parents would huddle around The Bench. And talk. And laugh. And share the kinds of stories that forged neighbors into friends and a street into a community. Then the children grew and lives became busier and divergent interests pulled us in different directions. The street became quieter. And so did camaraderie at The Bench. Over the years, several of the original families moved, including the Kolars. New families — some with younger children — replaced them. They became friends, chatting outside as their kids played.

But the magical draw of The Bench faded with the teak. In 2010, Rachel and Matt Keillor became the third family to live in the Kolar house. California transplants originally from the Midwest, they came with their daughter, Natalie, then 3, and their 2½-month-old son, Andrew. And then, as so often happens, an ordinary life event occurs that somehow starts a chain reaction that leads to something special. In this case: Andrew turned 2 and began to scooter. Natalie, now 6, wanted to ride her bike all the time. Rachel, a stay-at-home mom, knowing she’d be spending much of her time outside this past summer, looked to The Bench. She and Matt decided to refinish it. One weekend in May, Matt tried to move The Bench to the garage to sand it down and repaint it. That’s when he discovered the cinder blocks. And that’s when the neighbors rediscovered The Bench. Matt: “That weekend that we refinished it …” Rachel: “Every neighbor came over and talked to us.”

They said: “Oh, we used to sit out here all the time.” And shared such learned wisdom as: “Seize the day. Time goes by so quickly. Enjoy the moments with your kids; soon they’ll be going off to Boulder.” And a host of tips and tricks on landscaping and weeding. And the history of the street. “It did help us to get to know the stories of our neighbors,” Rachel says, smiling, “and the people who lived in our house.” When The Bench had its new coat, Rachel added two burnt orange cushions she’d bought for a couple of dollars at a garage sale. Adrienne Miner, who moved into the cul-de-sac with her family 10 years ago, was glad to see the fresh look. She’d often wondered about The Bench. “I’ve looked at it and contemplated it over the years,” says Adrienne, who has two young sons. “I was happy to see when Rachel and Matt painted it and put some pillows on it and made it look more inviting and not so lonely and desolate. … It made it look as important as it probably is.” Any afternoon or evening this summer, more often than not, would find Rachel — or Rachel and Matt — on The Bench watching Natalie and Andrew play. Little by little, as other children would filter into the cul-de-sac, their parents and some of us old-timers, too, would come, gravitating toward The Bench, sitting on the sidewalk or standing nearby.

“When it has one person out there,” Adrienne says of The Bench, “it tends to collect other people.” The conversations are busy — about the children and their challenges and successes. School. Home improvements. Work. Life. “Just catching up,” Adrienne says, “and connecting.” Even the children have bonded with The Bench. The neighborhood girls, lately into trading rocks, store their favorites in the nook under the seat. It’s become their trading post. Kelli recently drove down the old street and happily noticed the rejuvenated bench. “It’s kind of like handing down a favorite piece of furniture,” she says. “You never know what’s going to happen. But 18 years later, it’s still being used for what we put it out there for … It’s great.” Already, the hint of cooler weather is slowing down life at The Bench. Soon, Rachel will take in the pillows so they look good for next year. And I will glance out the window to see who’s there, to find it, sadly, empty. But this time, it will only be for a little while. The Bench and its magic, I think, will be back next year.

Car might pave way for blind drivers Center celebrates 25 years of operation By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Just like any businessman starting his workday, Mark Riccobono headed out the door Sept. 13 and hopped in his car. The he put on his sleep shades, started the engine and took off down the street. Riccobono, executive director of the Jernigan Institute at the National Federation of the Blind, was in town to help the Colorado Center for the Blind celebrate its 25th birthday by offering rides in a vehicle designed to give blind people the ability to drive. He stresses it’s a car blind people can drive, not a car that drives blind people. And to prove it, he completed an obstacle course at Daytona in 2011, reaching speeds of up to 27 mph. The 2010 Ford Escape is a hybrid, not so much for the environmental benefits but because it has the extra battery power required to keep all the bells and whistles running. GPS and sensors work together to send vibrations to Riccobono via gloves and the seat, telling him when it’s safe to go, when to turn left or right, and when to hit the brakes. The sighted Paul Ficarro, NFB facilities manager, sits in the back seat with a big red emergency stop button for those “just in case” moments, but he offers no verbal direction. And none was needed as Riccobono cruised the neighborhood around CCB over and over, hauling students, staff alumni, the press and local dignitaries. He compares his quest to create the vehicle, and ultimately to make it widely available, to the journey of life for the CCB students. “When we come in as students, we’re really passengers and Diane and Julie (Deden, executive director), they’re our drivers,” he said. “But they’re teaching us every day how to be drivers in our own lives. The rest of society is very content to have us be passengers, even in our own lives.”

Mark Riccobono, of the National Federation of the Blind, celebrated Colorado Center for the Blind’s 25th birthday by driving with sleep shades on. Photo by Jennifer Smith Mayor Debbie Brinkman got the first ride after the welcoming ceremony. “You guys are pretty low-maintenance, actually,” she told the dozens in attendance. “It’s the rest of the community we have to keep reminding of that. … You’re such a part of the fabric and the fiber of the community.” CCB founder Diane McGeorge recalled the early days in Denver before the center moved to Littleton 13 years ago. “The day we opened, we’d had a terrible blizzard a couple days before,” she said. “It was quite a walk in the snow and

ice and freezing temperatures, and they had to cross Broadway, a busy street, and the traffic lights were frozen. But in came those five students. And I said, ‘Welcome to reality. This is the real world.’ I do believe in reality therapy, because we want blind people to live in the world.” Fred Schroeder, NFB’s first vice president, said that before NFB existed, the prevailing theory was that blind people just needed to be taken care of. “But they were telling them all of the low expectations that you grew up with, they’re all true,” he said. “We’re not going to teach

you to just cook a hamburger, we’re going to teach you to believe in yourself. Mostly what you learn here is that what society believes about us is wrong.” “There were a lot of naysayers in ’88,” agreed Scott LaBarre, president of the National Association of Blind Lawyers. “They tried to kill us, they tried to make this center fail because they didn’t believe what we believe, that it is the blind themselves who need to take control of their own lives. … At first our centers were outcasts. They thought we were crazy. But the world is changing because of what we do.”

Council pushes back on firefighter overtime Expense tops $1 million in the last two years

‘I expect a whole lot more out of the fire department to solve this problem.’

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com

Councilor Bruce Beckman

Outgoing Littleton Fire Rescue Chief John Mullin took a bit of a beating from Littleton City Council during the Sept. 10 budget discussion, particularly in regard to skyrocketing overtime costs. “I expect a whole lot more out of the fire department to solve this problem,” said Councilor Bruce Beckman. Mullin is asking for $9.6 million for regular salaries and nearly $1.4 million on top of that for overtime in 2014. The actual 2013 overtime is expected to shake out at $1.3 million. It was $1.2 million in 2012, more than double the 2011 price tag of $555,000. Mullin said injuries are the major factor, but the big jump came after the 2010 decision to run Medic 16 full time. It was placed into service in 2009 at Station 16 in Highlands Ranch in an effort to reduce response times to Littleton’s Trailmark neighborhood, just north of Chatfield Reservoir on Wadsworth Boulevard. That plan wasn’t terribly successful, and the city began paying West Metro Fire Protection to serve Trailmark this year. That has reduced response times from

more than 12 minutes to less than 9 minutes, said Mullin. “I’m not happy that everybody has to pay $315,000 just because West Metro won’t do automatic aid into Trailmark,” said Councilor Jim Taylor. Response times did go down in the rest of Littleton’s coverage area after Medic 16’s arrival, so LFR decided to run it full time. It was entirely staffed by six employees on overtime until last year. Finance Director Doug Farmen explained that it was cheaper to pay the overtime than to hire new paramedics. But, says Mullin, it’s getting harder to get qualified staff to volunteer for extra hours because they are simply getting tired of working so much. Council approved adding three paramedics in last year’s budget cycle, but they weren’t hired until August. Mullin asked for three more this time around, at a cost of $342,000, to fully staff Medic 16. He said he’ll apply for a federal

grant to foot the bill. Several councilors want to decrease his overtime budget by the cost of the new paramedics. Councilor Phil Cernanec said he wants to get it closer to what they budgeted for in 2013, which was $450,000. “I just don’t want to make the assumption that hiring will reduce overtime,” said Beckman. Mayor Debbie Brinkman is concerned about Mullin’s plan to train the three new hires, plus others needed due to retirements or attrition, in-house at a cost of $67,000, rather than paying $7,000 apiece to send them to another agency. Mullin said there are no academies scheduled in the metro area soon enough to get the new paramedics up and running by the first of the year. “We don’t have a bottomless pit of money,” said Brinkman. “I feel very uncomfortable that it’s not more buttoned up.”

Everyone agreed to Mullin’s proposal to raise ambulance fees by 15 percent, but nobody liked his idea to create an enterprise fund to ensure the service pays for itself. “The city needs to absorb some part of the overall operations,” said Beckman. The new fees would be $755 for basic transport, and $855 for advanced life support. The last increases were in 2007 and 2000. Council grilled Mullin on his requests for new equipment, particularly scuba gear and a vehicle for a newly created position of fire cadet, who will make deliveries among stations. “We’ve had this discussion before, and I don’t want to have this discussion again,” said Councilor Jerry Valdes. “We don’t just go buy stuff because that’s what we like to do.” Mullin announced his retirement last month, four months after the firefighters’ association formally declared a lack of confidence in his leadership. His last day will be Dec. 31. At the end of Mullin’s presentation, Dave Oppenheim, president of the Littleton Fire Protection Board, and Terry Nolan, general manager of the Highlands Ranch Fire Protection District, commented that there’s been a marked improvement in relations among the three fire partners recently. “We’d like to thank council and Michael Penny for stepping up and becoming partners rather than owners,” said Oppenheim.

Ketring Lake finally gets a boost Denver Water lets canal run for two days By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The fish in Ketring Lake got a bit of reprieve Sept. 10 when Denver Water agreed to run water through the High Line Canal for two days. “This is huge,” said Charlie Blosten, director of public works. He expects it will be the last time for at least a couple of years. After Denver Water took over Littleton’s service in 1970, it agreed to keep Ketring Lake full, to the extent possible, with water channeled from the High Line Canal. But after several years of drought conditions, Denver Water decided to let the canal stay empty, and the lake is drying up. As part of a solution, the city paid $18,000 for a study on the feasibility of drilling to access underground aquifers. Blosten requested $500,000 in the 2014 budget to cover design, testing and construction of a well that would not only fill the lake but water up to 30 acres at Ketring Park, Littleton Museum, Bemis Library, Gallup Park and Gallup Gardens. Blosten expected to need at least that much more in the 2015 budget to complete design of pumping and irrigation systems.

Water cascades out of a channel from the High Line Canal headed for Ketring Lake for the first time in two years. Photo by Jennifer Smith Council was not generally supportive of the plan during its Sept. 10 study session. “I have a huge concern with the price tag,” said Mayor Debbie Brinkman. “I don’t want to just let it sit there and get messy and icky. … But I don’t think Ketring

Lake is sustainable, and I don’t think drilling a well for $1 million is a good idea right now.” She suggested using the money for a master plan of the area, which might include “repurposing” the lake.

hill aevium Expands Denver Office

Pati Martinez, Creative Director for hill aevium’s new Denver Office

Edwards, CO-based marketing and advertising firm hill aevium is expanding its Denver office under the leadership of Creative Director Pati Martinez. The agency’s award-winning brand strategist will split her time between the Edwards and Denver offices and

Hurricane Grill and Wings, 8520 W. Bowles Avenue, pulled out all the stops (including a real Colorado “hurricane”) during their Grand Opening and ribbon cutting celebration on August 22nd.

will oversee the firm’s group of designers and web developers in the Denver office. “With Pati overseeing our creative and branding efforts, we look forward to expanding our presence in the Denver market,” says hill aevium President Linda Hill. “We are thrilled that Pati will be able to offer her expertise in creating customized solutions for clients in both the Vail Valley and the Front Range,” adds Hill. Martinez joined hill aevium in 2010. Earlier this year, hill aevium received a Silver Adrian Award from the Hospitality Sales & Marketing Association International (HSMAI) for its redesign of the Glenwood Hot Springs website, striving to enhance the site’s design and architecture in an effort to increase website traffic and provide quicker access to meaningful website content. Since the new site launched a year ago, the number of unique visitors to the

website has increased by 21% and the number of people who clicked through to the reservation system increased by 19%. Last year, the agency won two W3 Awards from the International Academy of the Visual Arts for website design and was named a Bronze winner in the 33rd Annual Telly Awards for their Estes Park :30 TV spot titled “Take Flight.” The agency was also responsible for the design and implementation of the South Metro Denver Chamber’s new brand logo last year. “hill aevium did a fantastic job of incorporating our Chamber’s core values of collaboration, empowerment, transformation and celebration into an immediately recognizable logo and icon. They worked very closely with our branding committee to make sure we came out with a dynamic and graphically interesting logo,” said Chamber President and CEO John Brackney.

Councilor Bruce Beckman agreed, but said he’d like to hear more from the public. “Maybe that park ultimately will become something different,” he said. Councilor Phil Cernanec wondered if redirecting storm water to the area via the High Line Canal might be more cost-effective and include benefits to the canal itself. “I’d like to see that rather than jump into tapping into an aquifer that takes 100 years to replenish,” he said. A short-term solution to divert water from Englewood’s McClellan Reservoir in Douglas County has been proposed by former City Manager Larry Borger, who lives in the Ketring neighborhood. Englewood is legally obligated to let Littleton have 35 acre-feet of water a year to replace evaporated water in Cooley Lake, which is south of South Platte Park. But Littleton only uses about 19 acre-feet a year, so Borger feels the city has a right to do whatever it wants with the other 16. “I think the city’s getting a bad rap about this, and I’d like to see if we can get something going,” he told Littleton City Council on Aug. 6. Mayor Pro Tem Bruce Stahlman and Councilor Jim Taylor supported going forward with the drilling, noting that using it to water the whole area would save money in the long run. “I think spending $500,000 is a good investment for the future,” said Taylor.

all would do today, what we are all willing to do tomorrow. They served, they protected, they gave their lives.”

Fire Chief John Mullin led his last bell-ringing ceremony as a member of Littleton Fire Rescue, as he’s retiring next April.

He explained that bells have always been the symbol of the fire department, used to communicate before Twitter or even telephones, and to bring comfort to those awaiting help. “When they heard that bell, they knew help was on the way and they would soon be in comforting hands,” he said. When the fire was out and the firefighters were home, they rang three sets of five rings. Mullin chimed that signal in honor of the 9/11 victims and soldiers who have died fighting the wars since. “Your work is over, a job well done,” he said. “Welcome home.” Stephens ended his comments by looking to the future. “Today, Patriot’s Day, we remember,” he said. “We remember the 3,000 who died. We remember the 411. We remember the sorrow, the pain, the pride.” “But today, we also celebrate. We celebrate our resilience, our ability to take a hit and come back stronger, more determined than ever to stand up, to face any challenge, to defend, to protect, to serve.”

opinions / yours and ours

Planning, packing pivotal to preparedness Fire is far from our minds with last week’s rains. But we just left a summer with the worst fire in Colorado history. The Black Forest Fire took down nearly 500 homes, and the state required federal disaster aid. At the same time, the state was dotted with lesser blazes, including the Lime Gulch and Royal Gorge fires. The number of evacuations was dwarfed by the news of the number of homes lost, but it was a big hurt to many other people, their health, pets and livelihoods. And now — after what had been a relatively calm start to the month — we suddenly experience flooding and rainfall enough to have caused several deaths. So

our view it’s not difficult to be mindful of Emergency Preparedness Month in September — the FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) initiative started in 2004 that involves a few simple projects. First develop an emergency plan. It’s easy. • Decide a group meeting place in case of emergency or disaster. Choose one near home and one farther away. • Identify an emergency contact person

and assign responsibilities to each family or group member. • Make some decisions about where your family should go if forced to leave the area. And make plans for the pets. Second, assemble the supplies you will need. And group everything together in a kit. Here’s a recommended list from FEMA. • Battery powered or crank radio • Weather alert radio • Extra batteries • First aid kit • Sanitary napkins • Dust mask • Water for drinking and sanitation • Water purification tablets

• Waterproof matches and a butane lighter • Crank flashlight • Plastic sheeting • Non-perishable food for at least three days • Disinfectants and medications • Medical information for entire family, including instructions about medications and health history information. We never know when Mother Nature or a man-made disaster will make us all shake in our boots. So it’s not a bad idea to go through the steps of being prepared for disaster. We hope the exercise simply amounts to an educational experience. On to fall and winter.

Short-term thinking What’s your favorite blurs big-picture vision question of the week

thing about fall?

As summer officially ends and fall begins, we asked several people in the Highlands Ranch Town Center what they like best about the season.

“The weather, the clothes, the heartier, more savory food, Thanksgiving, rain and snow. And then of course, the leaves changing color.” — Kaitlin Clark, Denver

“Football and Thanksgiving.” — Thiago Harvey, Denver

“The leaves changing. But football first.” — Kenneth Harvey, Denver

“Cooler weather and the changing of the leaves. But the snow can stay in the mountains.” — Jackie Walsh, Highlands Ranch

letter to the editor respect the citizens’ choice

I have never used marijuana. I never liked the feel of loss of self-control that drugs cause. I do not like that the medical marijuana is such an attractive nuisance with all its cash and drugs for the bad guys. I do not like that it must be a cash business because federal banking laws prohibit credit cards and checks for its purchase. I do not like its apparent effects on regular users. I do not like its effects on drivers. I do

not like having to smell it in public places. I do not like it when dealers populate an area and turn it into a grow house or dealing center. But I will vote to allow it and tax it at a reasonable level since the citizens have spoken. I guess I like the idea of a constitutional republic responsible and respecting citizens better than my dislike for drug use. John Watson At-large city council candidate Littleton

How time flies … or slows, or runs totally backward I have attended football games all over the place. Lincoln, Norman, Ann Arbor, Pasadena, Berkeley, Palo Alto, Tempe. None of them ended in slow motion. I have attended Major League Baseball games in at least five states, and none of the games ended in slow motion. But every time I watch a football or baseball movie, it ends in slow motion. Is it a requisite? “Must end in slow motion.” Maybe the director has to stretch the movie out because it didn’t take up enough time. That must be it. He’s got 10 minutes to go, and he doesn’t have 10 minutes worth of action and dialogue. I know better about slow motion. It is used to add drama to drama. I don’t think I have ever seen a football or baseball movie end in real time. Or basketball. Have you seen “Hoosiers”? Jimmy Chitwood goes up ... up ... up. It takes 20 seconds and there are only three seconds left in the game.

The need for instant gratification has truly compromised our ability to see beyond what is immediately in front of us. I mean in some cases we can’t even see the next three hours that are directly in front of us let alone three weeks, three months, or three years down the road. We want something and we want it now. Short-term thinkers limit themselves to what they can have or achieve today instead of seeing the much bigger potential of tomorrow. And if we live only for the things we can have at our fingertips in this moment, we forgo the opportunity to enjoy the rewards that come by careful planning, temporary sacrifices, saving, being patient, and willing to earn and wait for the things that will provide enjoyment and security in the future. Near-term thinking or seeking is driven by an attitude of impatience. Big-picture visioning and pursuing is driven by a goalsoriented and results-focused attitude. The student will make a decision to blow off a homework assignment today in exchange for a good time tonight. The unemployed person will stop sending resumes and applying for the position they truly want because they were not offered a job today. The person seeking to lose weight or improve their physical fitness will avoid the gym because the pounds are coming off too slowly or their endurance or strength is not improving rapidly enough. There are countless scenarios where the shortcut and partial success are rationalized by the acceptance of fractional achievement of what we really desire. Of course there are activities and tasks that require short-term thinking and immediate

Mexi So what do we do about this instant Ame gratification epidemic? The first thing we So need to do is to adopt an attitude of patience and big-picture visioning. The second thing we need to do is to identify our goals. And as a best practice, categorize each goal into one of three buckets: near term, mid-range, and longterm. The next step is to go back and make sure that there is some level of distribution in all three buckets.

Directors can manipulate time all over the place. There are flashbacks and flashforwards. Some movies have both, so you have to pay attention. “Back to the Future” starts in 1985, goes back to 1955, and returns to 1985, after Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) tinkers with events. I like Fox.

An overview of world markets in motion s

Different economic factors drive different results in different countries. However, we are the same in that we share one globe. August market returns worldwide are a good example of how certain countries produced diverse results. However the global nature of current ree affairs was the common denominator producing significant volatility for investors. August marked the usual late summer mily, ons lull that often follows the more exiting July earnings season. Many investors vacation e or late in summer and the low trading volume hakeis often blamed for a downward drifting stock market this time of year. September is often a volatile month he and this year the fall outlook has cast an e ominous shadow over the markets. n The anticipation of dealing with the federal deficit, the new Affordable Health Care Act, another possible round of sequestration and a possible new Federal Reserve chairman would each be good reasons for uncertainty. On top of these issues we also must deal with China balancing between cooling down growth without stalling the economy; the conflict in Syria; and Europe coming out of recession.

While there is a lot going on that is country specific, the domino triggers are also in effect where news from halfway around the globe impacts our investments. Here is an overview of the world markets at the end of August: The United States became infatuated with when the Federal Reserve Board would begin to taper their bond buying program. This set the stage for rising bond yields which put pressure on both bond and stock prices pushing U.S. markets down 3 percent¹. The news of chemical weapons used in Syria created more uncertainty. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell below 15,000 again in August, which seems to be an emotional level for many domestic

investors. Europe announced the 17-nation euro zone has emerged from recession. However, this news was tempered with investor concerns about potential strikes on Syria, which pushed stocks down for Europe as well. Asia Pacific nations also had varying degrees of declines. Japan fell 2 percent on a lower-than-expected growth outlook and pending sales tax increase designed to help lower their massive fiscal deficit. This in turn could dampen economic growth. Australian stocks were up slightly despite the lower economic outlook largely due to high unemployment. Emerging markets as a whole also fell 2 percent last month despite variable economic data in specific countries. China had a slight increase as their manufacturing index expanded for the first time in four months. South Korea also showed an increase helped by rising exports. The rest of the emerging markets remain troubled with large deficits, high inflation and declining currencies. This includes India, Indonesia, Brazil, Turkey and Mexico. Russia reduced their growth forecast pushing stocks modestly lower.

This research indicates that investors may experience increased volatility stemming from foreign or domestic issues: Some specific to each country’s economic situation and some due to the global contagion. While foreign investing often provides good diversification, it may be impossible to determine where all the risks are. Therefore keep your strategy current with your advisor to monitor opportunities and the concerns that come with them. Now that we are on a global market, it will be difficult to see all the factors necessary to make investment decisions without qualified advice. 1. Capital Group August Commentary

are called period films. I am not crazy about period films, like “Pride and Prejudice.” Mr. Darcy doesn’t do much for me. Most period films are humorless. There has to be a little humor, doesn’t there? Not always. There weren’t a lot of oneliners in “Schlinder’s List.” A film came out in 1968 that was set in 2001, “A Space Odyssey,” and it seemed very futuristic. We hadn’t even been to the moon yet. Now 2001 has come and gone. Sometimes time plays tricks on us. It takes forever to wait 15 minutes in line at the pharmacy or on hold on the phone, but 15 minutes goes by much too fast when you are with the one you love. One of my favorite manipulations of

time happened in a cartoon series: “Peabody’s Improbable History,” which starred Mr. Peabody and a precocious boy named Sherman. It was featured on the “Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.” During every episode, Peabody and Sherman would get in the WABAC (pronounced “way-back”) machine and timetravel, to discover how an important event in history actually happened. You had to be a sharp cookie to watch “Rocky and Bullwinkle.” It was full of clever references and wordplay. Another one of my favorite time-travel films was based on a Mark Twain book, “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court.” The 1949 version that starred Bing Crosby is the best.

Hank Morgan (Crosby), a 19th-century resident of Hartford, Conn., suffers a blow to the head, and winds up in the sixth century, where he is perceived to be a magician because he has a book of matches. Suffering a blow to the head, dreaming, or fainting are the easiest ways for the scriptwriter to time-travel his characters. I time-travel just about every night. I dream about my father, and it is very vivid and real. But it never is. It’s time to wrap this up.

August 8

We’re inspired by classic Colorado architecture and passionate about craŌsmanship. Yet we geek out on the latest technology and building techniques. The thicker walls in our high performance homes allow for 60% more money-saving insulaƟon than in a convenƟonal home, and our roof is 6 inches higher than a typical home, so we get 2½ Ɵmes MORE insulaƟon in the aƫc. This reduces heat loss, and more importantly, reduces your energy bill!

City might pay to polish its image Penny lays out case for full-time event planner By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com City Manager Michael Penny is asking Littleton City Council to approve up to $100,000 to pay a full-time event planner and an additional $135,000 to carry out the events starting in 2014. “Increased funding to special events will increase the quality and quantity of messaging and events that strengthen the city’s image and bring in new visitors and revenue,” he wrote in the proposed budget that council began reviewing Sept. 9. It will hear the budget ordinance on first reading Oct 1. Penny notes that residents indicated strong support for Littleton to increase its

self-promotion in both the business and citizen surveys conducted last year. Eighty percent of residents said it’s essential or very important, and 97 percent of businesses said they support strengthening the community’s image. Penny anticipates spending $35,000 on a downtown branding and sign plan, and $17,500 on marketing. Although several councilors pointed out there is more to Littleton than just downtown, Penny said that’s where the focus would be. “It’s what sets us apart,” he said. The Historic Downtown Littleton Merchants — an independent board not affiliated with the city — has historically taken the lead on downtown events, hosting the Pumpkin Follies and Goat Show, the Littleton Block Party, the Turkey Leg and Wine Hoedown and more each year. Penny said he envisions working in partnership with HDLM going forward.

“This is not a government takeover of downtown,” he said. Greg Reinke, HDLM president, said the board is generally supportive of the concept. “As long as things don’t change, and as long as it doesn’t become a hindrance,” he said. Penny has already changed the tradition of Penny automatically providing inkind support for the block party, instead making HDLM apply for a $20,000 donation from the city, what he says is the actual value of services like police, paramedics and clean-up crews. “We want you guys to know what it actually costs, and you might think maybe it’s not worth us putting those dollars in,” he told council. Councilor Jim Taylor wondered why

Penny didn’t require the same process for Western Welcome Week’s Festival Day, perhaps the most recognizable downtown event. WWW is also its own entity, a nonprofit affiliated with neither the city nor the merchants’ association. “It’s taken two years for us to get HDLM to play in this sandbox,” said Penny. “We will work with (WWW) to get to that point.” Councilor Peggy Cole wondered if they should try working with a contractor to test the waters before hiring a full-time event planner. “I’d prefer we have somebody who is beholden to us, and to me, and to the council and the community,” said Penny. Mayor Debbie Brinkman, on the other hand, wanted to pay even more to attract high-quality candidates for the job. “People have said for years and years and years that we keep ourselves the bestkept secret,” she said.

NEWS IN A HURRY Bowles Avenue undergoes repairs

Road work on Bowles Avenue is expected to run through mid-October. Traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction on Bowles from Santa Fe Drive to Platte Canyon Road for the duration of the project, according to the city.

The cities of Englewood and Littleton will hold their annual Household Hazardous Waste Roundup on Sept. 21 from 8

a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Englewood ServiCenter, 2800 S. Platte River Drive. This event is open to Littleton, Englewood and Sheridan residents only. Residency will be verified at the event. There is a $20 co-pay for each family’s hazardous waste; checks or cash only. Accepted items include oil-based paint, paint thinner, herbicides, fertilizer, pesticides, motor oil, gasoline, antifreeze, batteries and CFL light bulbs.

Event aids those with epilepsy

Join Chelsea’s Epilepsy 5K Walk/Run on Sept. 22 at Clement Park, 7306 W. Bowles Ave. The walk begins at 9 a.m., and registration opens at 7:30 a.m. The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation was started by Julie and Doug Hutchison to provide help and support to individuals, particularly children and young adults, who have epilepsy. Their daughter lost her life to a seizure in 2009. CHF’s main goal is to raise funds to

provide grants for seizure-response dogs. These trained service dogs can detect an oncoming seizure and provide warnings and/or respond after the onset of a seizure. For more information, contact Kimberly Burk at 1-888-325-0420 or kburk@planaheadevents-denversouth.com.

Franklin Elementary turns 50

The evening begins with an open house at 6 p.m., followed at 7 p.m. by a musical performance with students and former principals sharing their memories. A reception will follow at 8 p.m. Contact Brooke Jacobsma-Wolf at Franklin for more information, 303-3474500.

Kids invited to city center

High-school students are invited to participate in the city of Littleton’s “Youth in Government Day,” on Sept. 26 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Littleton Center, 2255 W. Berry Ave. The day is designed to foster ties between youths and Littleton’s government, and kids can earn a chance to win college

scholarships of up to $2,000. The day begins with a keynote speech from Lisa White of the Colorado Municipal League, followed by a short lesson on how a city government functions. Next, staff members from several city departments will provide a broad overview what they do and speak specifically to the role the department plays in business start-ups. Students will then be assigned a specific business to “start” in the city. After lunch, students will meet individually with a representative from each department to gather information about their assigned business. For more information or to register, contact Teen/Outreach Librarian Mark Decker at 303-795-3961.

LOT OF WATER

Homeowners file second appeal against development By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcolorado news.com

While much of the surrounding area was under flash-flood warnings, Littleton largely escaped the hazardous conditions. Most places that traditionally fill up during rainstorms, such as Progress Park on Powers Avenue, were damp but not flooded, and the South Platte River was still just knee-high for the geese near Belleview Avenue and Santa Fe Drive. But just up the hill to the west, a shopping-center parking lot became a water park for drivers on Sept. 14. Photo by Jennifer Smith

After temporarily halting the Sterling Ranch development once already, the Chatfield Community Association has filed yet another legal challenge against the development’s approval, asking the district court in Douglas County to once again review the county commissioners’ July decision to approve the development. The homeowners’ group — filing the appeal under Rule 106, which allows for groups to challenge a governing body’s ruling on a development — has stated that the county commissioners demonstrated an “abuse of discretion” and “acted outside their jurisdiction and authority” by approving the development on July 10. The suit, similar to the 2011 challenge, argues that Sterling Ranch still does not have an adequate water supply to move forward with its development and also states that the commissioners acted on an application that was not pending, but closed, when they approved it earlier this summer. According to County Attorney Lance Ingalls, there is a difference in how the Chatfield group read Judge Paul King’s order and how the county interpreted it. “Judge King said specifically that it was within the discretion of the county what to do next,” Ingalls said. “The county feels it has been in compliance all along.” After King determined in 2012 that the development had not demonstrated an adequate water supply in its 2011 application, the county commissioners lobbied the state legislature to

S

pass SB-258, which clarified what they believed to be true already that a developer doesn’t have to show water adequacy for an entire development up front, but that the developer can demonstrate it in phases throughout the process. This irked the Chatfield group, which stated in its recent filing that the commissioners, by “engaging a paid lobbyist to enact legislative changes intended to aid the applicant,” have acted in a biased manner. “We pursued those changes because at the end of the day we have many applications in addition to Sterling Ranch and we simply need to know what our legal requirements are for making these determinations,” Ingalls said. “We did not do so at the request of Sterling Ranch and we stand by the clarifications we got. “It is mandatory that a local government determines an adequate water supply before the build-out of a project, but local governments have the discretion as to when to make that determination.” And while the county still has not ruled whether Sterling Ranch has an adequate water supply to proceed with the first phase of its development, that application is expected to be filed soon when Sterling Ranch submits its sketch plan to the county. The sketch plan, which will be followed by a preliminary plat filing and a final plat filing, is the first of three hoops Sterling Ranch needs to jump through before breaking ground, something the developer hopes to do later this year. “I don’t see there being any legitimacy to the complaint,” said Sterling Ranch attorney Wayne Foreman. “It challenges a process that was exhausted.” Numerous attempts to reach Chatfield attorney James Kreutz and homeowner’s association vice president Dennis Larratt were unsuccessful at press time.

County building inspector is jailed in burglary case Longtime Arapahoe employee arrested Staff report An Arapahoe County building inspector has been arrested on suspicion of burglary and theft. Lambert Leon Iringan, 65, is being held at the Arapahoe County jail on $200,000 bond. Iringan, a Centennial resident and a county employee since 1998, was taken into custody Sept. 13 in connection with an incident the previous day. He is suspected of unlawfully entering the home, then the bedroom, of an occupied residence in unincorporated Arapahoe County, according to a sheriff’s office news release. A woman told the sheriff’s office that a man en-

tered her bedroom, which was dark, while she was in bed at around 8:30 a.m. Sept. 12, walked to her dressers and began opening drawers. As the suspect removed an article of clothing from a drawer, the victim announced her presence, authorities were told. The suspect, later identified as Iringan, ran from the room. The victim told Arapahoe County sheriff’s investigators she was having her basement remodeled and that the contractor for the project was scheduled to meet with a county inspector the morning of Sept. 12. The county has placed Iringan on paid administrative leave, pending the result of the investigation. He faces a charge of seconddegree burglary, a felony, as well as a misdemeanor theft charge.

Everyone loves ‘Uncle John’

Appraiser Daniel Geary examines photos taken by Elizabeth Cooley’s grandmother in 1904. Below, This knife nearly killed Joyce Russell’s father in Germany during World War II, Russell said at an event at Bemis Public Library. Photos by Jennifer Smith

Pieces of past on parade Appraisals reveal artifacts’ real value is often sentimental By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The community room at Littleton’s Bemis Public Library looked more like an estate sale Sept. 13 as more than 200 people filed through with an assortment of family treasures. Appraisers were on hand to offer insight on everything from a Marilyn Monroe Barbie to a Russian samovar, including watches, jewelry, artwork, furniture, muskets, china and even what looked to be an American Indian peace pipe. Elizabeth Cooley arrived with her grandmother’s journal from 1904, along with photos depicting her life on a Wyoming ranch. The documents gave Cooley insight into the life of Mabel Emilia Underwood, the grandmother who died before she was born. “Agnes was telling me Gus took Daisy Trout to the dance,” wrote Underwood as a 25-year-old woman on Nov. 25, 1904. “I have my opinion of such a fellow. I’ll never speak to him again.” Then, on Nov. 29: “If I could, I’d shake Daisy Trout. She is so hateful.” Clearly, Underwood’s journal shows some things never change. But beyond that, said Daniel Geary, owner of Lone Tree Antiques and Fine Art in Eaton, Colo., it gives a real feel for what her life was like. “Women in the frontier, there’s not a lot of record of that,” he said. “It’s not always pretty, but they were tougher than nails.” Underwood’s written words depict a hard-working and windy life of churning butter, ironing and scrubbing laundry offset by near daily visits to or from lots of friends — real ones, not Facebook friends, in a world where “social media” was the dining-room table.

“I always thought life on the ranch would be so boring, but they had company every day,” said Cooley. “And our kids think they have it so tough when we ask them to empty the dishwasher.” Geary said there’s not a lot of value to such memorabilia beyond enlightenment, which Cooley said was the most important thing to her. “I think it’s a real eyeglass sense of the past,” said Geary. Joyce Russell brought an item that tells the story of her father’s near-death experience in World War II. “My dad, Arthur Russell, was a medic stationed in Germany,” she said. “He was tending to a soldier down on the ground when a German soldier came up behind him with this knife and was going to stab him and kill him. Dad didn’t see that, but one of our soldiers shot the German soldier. And this is the knife.” She also had with her a huge red banner bearing a swastika that her father said he took out of a meeting room in Germany. She plans to keep them in the family, but headed to Bemis out of curiosity as to their worth. Geary said it was hard to place a value on the artifacts without more research because they are fairly common, but details could reveal more. He placed a ballpark figure on the two together of $2,000, but to Russell, they symbolize her father’s very life. “He was a medic, so as he was saving lives, his life got saved,” she said.

Brief, shining moment comes to Arvada Familiar ‘Camelot’ gets extended run By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com One thinks of kings and castles, but Arvada’s remarkable set designer, Brian Malgrave, sets that castle at a dreamy distance and places the action in the surrounding landscape, with gnarly trees and rocks, where it may be a bit cold and damp. Myths about King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table have accumulated for a thousand years. In 1958, well-loved American writer T. H. White published his version, “The Once and Future King,” which a friend recommended to famous librettist Alan

If you Go “Camelot” plays at the Arvada Center through Oct. 6 (it was recently extended a week). Performances: 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays; 1 p.m. Wednesdays; 2 p.m. Saturdays, Sundays. Tickets: 720-898-7200, arvadacenter. org. Jay Lerner as a possible next show. Lerner connected with producer Moss Hart and they convinced composer Frederick Loewe to write a score. “Camelot” opened in 1960, running much too long, but was cut enough to succeed on Broadway and become associated with the Kennedy administration. At three hours, it is still too long in the beautifully staged Arvada Center production, but stellar voices, a lovely score, nice

choreography and a fine young cast carry the familiar story well. Arthur (David Bryant Johnson), Lancelot (Glenn Seven Allen) and Lady Guenevere (Melissa Mitchell) each carry a personal story into the scene, as do many other characters, such as nasty Scottish Mordred (Aaron M. Davidson) and genial Pellinore (William Thomas Evans, who also begins the legend as the wizard Merlin). Another magical personage is Megan Van De Hay’s Morgan Le Fey, who lives inside invisible walls in the forest. Costumes are colorful, but not overthe-top-detailed and elegant as they sometimes are designed for this musical. Director Rod A. Lansberry is quoted in the program as not wanting costumes and set to distract from these solid, interesting characters.

“Beverly Hills Cop” movie franchise actor and Fort Collins resident John Ashton is about as happy as it gets for someone who has chosen and endured a rather tortured profession. Ashton has ridden the Hollywood roller-coaster especially after finding fame in the Eddie Murphy vehicles “Beverly Hills Cop” and “Beverly Hills Cop II” playing the curmudgeonly Detective Sgt. John Taggart. Ashton, who retreated to a relatively quiet life in Fort Collins years ago because Hollywood felt like an ill-fitting suit, is back in the movie game with “Uncle John,” an independent film where he stars as the namesake character in this murder mystery set in Wisconsin and Chicago. The movie will likely travel to the Sundance Film Festival or, if luck is on their side, first to producer/director David Lynch, who worked with “Uncle John” writer and producer Erik Crary on the film “Inland Empire” in 1996. But Ashton, who earlier this week parted company with his agents, is most fired up about this movie, which he says has brought him back to his original journey to become an actor who does meaningful work. “It’s the best script I’ve read in years,” Ashton told me during a phone interview. “It’s something I’ve been begging my agents for me to do. I read the script and said, ‘Man, I’m on board.’ I don’t think I’m going to work for anybody over 40 anymore.” Like I said, Ashton plays the title character who is a level-headed guy who helps out his neighbors with fix-it jobs in rural Wisconsin. “He’s Uncle John,” Ashton said. “Everybody loves him. He fixes people’s water pipes and cabinet doors. The honesty of the character I loved.”

Fine arts faculty issues invitation Show at ACC brings in wide variety of works By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews. com The Arapahoe Community College fine arts faculty has again invited professional colleagues from the community and other colleges to share its space in the handsome Colorado Gallery of the Arts. The resulting exhibit, “Arapahoe Community Fine Arts Faculty and Friends,” offers an engaging blend of art in individual styles ranging from precise traditional photography to abstract three-dimensional works, beautifully crafted ceramics and finely wrought jewelry. Brightly colored mobiles by Jon Koenigsberg catch the light as they hang from the ceiling, drawing the eye to a strong collection of ceramics displayed on pedestals in the gallery center, while walls hold a variety of carefully installed works, arranged by gallery curator Trish Sangelo. Installing an exhibit like this is

potter, teacher and business owner, has injected humor into recent sculptural pieces such as “Still a Stiletto” and “Cradle to the Grave.” Her decorative “Tribal Pole” takes the viewer in another direction. Bob Baker, Jim Cooper and Peter and Susan Stark demonstrate

a few of the myriad ways potters glaze and finish their handcrafted work, from Baker’s earthy glazes to the Starks’ multi-colored patterned pieces. Cooper has two intriguing pitchers and a huge olla with subtle glazes.

A pair of graceful bronze sculptures, “Tango,” by Travis Ogden, lead the eye to the west wall where Marsh Wooley’s large oil on canvas landscape, “Gemini Bridges” dominates. To its left are a series of J.T. Urband’s interesting industrial graphite drawings. Centered on the east wall is Peter Illig’s pixelated portrait, “Blue Spark.” His website says: “My art works are all analogies for human evolutions and experiences — American psychological landscapes.” He has taught at Heritage and Chaparral High Schools and area colleges. Randy Burns, who teaches jewelry at ACC, has several beautifully crafted silver pieces, set with gemstones. Other displays would seem to be crafted by a jewelry maker, but are sculptural: Amy Bailey’s three small works and “Life Values” by Yuko Yagisawa. We wish there were information available in the gallery about these obviously accomplished artists. Sangelo said she had requested it, but had only three responses. Fine art is indeed a way of communicating, but a few words can truly enhance the viewer’s experience!

Family secrets surface at Curious ‘After the Revolution’ focuses on dynamics By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Strains of “Teach Your Children” play in the background as lights go up on a striking two-story set with old brick apartment walls, hundreds of books and a stairstep bookcase connecting the levels. Curious Theatre opened its 16th season with “After the Revolution” by up-andcoming young American playwright Amy Herzog, a play about generations of a New York Marxist family and a secret that comes to light. Ben Joseph (Gordon McConnell) is talking about the school where he teaches history and social justice, criticizing the principal. His audience is his brother Leo (Mark Collins), on sabbatical working on a book. Enter their assertive mother Vera (Anne Oberbroeckling), who is opinionated, hard of hearing and a wonderfully colorful character. There is talk of the departed Joe Joseph, famous Marxist, father and husband and of his granddaughter Emma, who has started a foundation in his name for social causes. It seems a new book is coming out from Yale

How will it affect her life and her foundation? Emma Joseph (Lauren Bahlman) and her boyfriend Miguel (Matthew Block) talk about the foundation where he also works and a campaign to help a black man in prison, accused of shooting a cop. She also meets with a wealthy donor, Morty (Jim Hunt). When Emma arrives at her parents’ home, her father tells her that her grandfather is named as an ideological Communist who gave secrets to Russia in the new book and that the family won’t contest it because it is true. She is shattered and angry and the story takes off from there, focusing on individual characters’ reactions and responses — and a compelling look at family dynamics as they process a significant period in recent history. Also in the strong cast: Dee Covington as Ben’s compassionate wife and Jessica Roblee as Emma’s sister Jess, who is afflicted

Lauren Bahlman as Emma Joseph and Jim Hunt as Morty discuss a possible foundation contribution in “After the Revolution” at Curious Theatre. Courtesy photo by addiction problems. The well-written script takes us through a few days in May and June 1999, with a troubled family of intellectuals, who are swamped by emotional stress, triggered because the family patriarch was blacklisted years earlier.

The acting is uniformly strong, thoughtfully directed by Chip Walton. Bahlman and Oberbroeckling particularly stand out. Background music is carefully chosen and lighting enhances the fine set. All in all, a very satisfying evening of theater as we meet a new writer.

Each pianist brings a distinct personal history and style to the joint concert, which is titled “The Global Piano Experience.” Downing, the great-granddaughter of a slave, who also boasts American Indian background, is a Colorado native who lives with her family in Ken Caryl. Her multi-ethnic history affects her own

worldview and personal spirituality, coloring her compositions and the stories they tell. She performs across the U.S. and internationally, has recorded three albums and has a fourth in production. She teaches in her home studio and has a talent agency called Vision Quest Entertainment. Julio Maziotti, a native of Mendoza, Argentina, brings a Latin influence, combining tango rhythms and traces of his Italian heritage. He too performs internationally — in Switzerland and Spain recently. Bob Baker, who comes from an Asian/ Irish background, is classically trained, and is influenced by many genres of American music: jazz, rock, gospel and more. He has performed with a wide variety of musicians and recorded at a various studios, including Northstar and Caribou in Colorado.

was off to Montana State University, where he started out majoring in architecture. “But I found that both my passion and my skill set went more toward politics and government,” he said, so he ended up with a bachelor’s degree in political science. He’s currently working on his master’s thesis, a study of community volunteerism through the ages, through the University of Colorado at Denver. “Bozeman wasn’t big enough, and it wasn’t active enough,” he said. “One Broadway show a year in the field house didn’t cut it for me, so I always knew I was coming home.” McCrumb’s first order of business upon arriving in Columbine Valley was to meet with the board of trustees to see how he could help them achieve their goals. Out of those conversations, he says, it became apparent that improved communication with the citizens was a priority. He’s says he’ll reinvent both the town newsletter and website for increased access to information. “My personal view is that I don’t really have a fear of giv-

with Ken Fellman in June, in which they agreed to pay him $200 an hour. “I’m not a big fan of this,” said Mayor Debbie Brinkman. “I understand it’s probably more reasonable, but I definitely don’t want to see this come back next year.” Residents are likely to see a jump in their sewer rates in 2014, as staff is proposing a 2 percent increase to offset future improvements that will be required by state and federal regulations. “We still need to make a public case for ramping up, with what we know is coming,” said Councilor Bruce Beckman. Councilors Jerry Valdes and Peggy Cole want to wait until the work starts to raise the fees, but Councilor Phil Cernanec and Mayor Pro Tem Bruce Stahlman contemplated raising them even more, by as much as 3 percent this year. The council chambers and city manager’s office will be slated for remodels should the budget pass as written, at a cost of about $194,000. Penny wants to remove the “pit” from chambers, the lowered area from which the public

They just need to be supported, and have those skills and goals aligned.” He says he’s ready to take on future challenges, such as the likely upcoming election driven by citizens who are fighting the Willowcroft redevelopment. The deadline for the group to turn in petitions is Sept. 23. If there are enough signatures, it will be on the town’s April ballot — the first election McCrumb will oversee in his career. Another issue looming is redevelopment of nearly a fourth of the town.

The 106-acre Tuck property is being scoped out by developers, and McCrumb expects a proposal to be on the table sometime next year. When they hired him, the trustees asked McCrumb to commit to staying on for three years, a promise he says won’t be hard to keep. “My goal is not to be a city manager,” he said. “My goal is helping the trustees grow and achieve their potential for whatever they want in life. And the other part is, I live in this area. I don’t intend to move around every two or three years. And as long as there are things to do and positive change, I hope to be here.” McCrumb looks forward to meeting all the residents and getting them involved. “Everybody has something to offer,” he said. “We need people with different skills to fulfill certain roles. Find a niche and get in there and do it.”

addresses the city council, saying it serves to intimidate. “We know it’s a substantial amount of money, but it’s time,” he said. Under the proposed budget, library late fees would go up from a dime to 20 cents a day, Little’s Creek Park’s lake would be dredged, the Littleton Community Trail would be extended to Littleton Boulevard and another $1 million would be allotted to South Platte River projects. New programs the budget would create include an expansion of business revitalization grants from $50,000 to $75,000 and a neighborhood partnership program in the community development department. “We really think this is going to help our community development staff, as well, especially the mediation piece,” said Glen VanNimwegen, community development director. “We spend a lot of time on mediation.” Not everyone was convinced. “I just don’t see the need to keep increasing stuff,” said Valdes. “I’d rather it go where I know we need it rather than to new things. Cole’s idea to place kinetic sculptures around the city idea was a flop. “I think we have got bigger fish to fry than this,” said Stahlman.

Fort Collins edges Arapahoe in ot Tough battle decided by 2-point conversion By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Arapahoe High School lost a tough, hard-fought non-league football contest in overtime Sept. 16 to Fort Collins, 41-40. The Warriors were seeking to return to their winning ways Sept. 19 when they traveled for a non-league game against Mountain Vista, in a game schedule after press time. Both teams headed into the Sept. 19 contest with 2-1 records and appear pretty evenly matched. However, in three games, Arapahoe appears to have the offensive advantage, as the Warriors averaged 34.7 points a game while the Golden Eagles have scored an average of 21.3 points per game. The Sept. 16 afternoon contest was originally scheduled to be played Sept. 13, but the game was rescheduled during heavy rains and flooding in the Fort Collins area.

Arapahoe defender Talon Jones (4) wraps up a Fort Collins runner as a Warrior teammate moves in to help make the tackle. Both teams had 33 points at the end of the fourth quarter, sending the game into overtime. Mother Nature presented a different picture Sept. 16 as the teams took the field in bright sunshine. The first half was a seesaw, low-scoring

battle. Neither team was able to generate a lot of offense and the first quarter was scoreless. Midway through the second quarter,

Fort Collins kicked a field goal and a few minutes later, Arapahoe quarterback Gabe Peterson connected with Ethan Brunhofer on a long pass that set up a Warriors touchdown with 2:11 left in the period. Arapahoe appeared to be poised to score again after intercepting a Lambkins pass and taking it to the 7-yard line. But the Warriors fumbled and Fort Collins defender Dawson Johnson scooped up the loose ball and took it 86 yards for the touchdown, giving the Lambkins a 10-7 advantage at halftime. Arapahoe was ahead 17-16 going into the final quarter. In that period, the Warriors scored 16 points and Fort Collins scored 17 points, so the teams had 33 points each at the end of the fourth quarter to send the game into overtime. The Warriors scored first in overtime and kicked the extra point to take the lead at 40-33. Then Fort Collins got the ball on the 20-yard line and drove in to score a touchdown. But, instead of kicking the ball to tie the score and force another overtime, Lambkins quarterback Kyle Sigsbee passed to Jacob Saracino for the two-point conversion to give Fort Collins the 41-40 victory.

Colorado’s wicked weather doesn’t silence Liberty Bell Floods keep many schools from attending invitational By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Heritage cross country coaches Lori Lee and Sheri Rossing spent a lot of time scrutinizing weather reports and watching reports of the devastating flooding in some parts of Colorado. Lee, director for the Liberty Bell Invitational cross country meet, and Rossing made the difficult decision to go ahead and

run the event as planned Sept. 13. Instead of the usual 92 teams, only 55 were able to make it. So instead of the usual 4,230 runners, there were 2,500 competing in Littleton. Most teams from Wyoming and Larimer, Boulder and Weld counties were unable to participate. Several Denver-area school districts canceled activities, and teams didn’t get notification that it was OK to take part until it was too late. “There was a lot of controversy of whether to hold the meet or not,” said Rossing, who was the assistant meet director and head Heritage boys coach. “We felt that the teams that had it on their schedule

that could make it, we owed it to them to go ahead and host the meet. “We feel sad there were several teams that couldn’t make it. There were some big powerhouses that couldn’t make it.” Several coaches and parents were miffed at the decision to run the Invitational as scheduled. “It was either do it for those teams that could make it or cancel it totally,” explained Rossing. “I wish there could have been another time for us to postpone. We couldn’t push it to Saturday because we have churches in our area that have weddings and everything else on Saturdays. “We couldn’t do that with the parking.

And there was no other weekend to do it because every other team had meets they were going to. You kind of have to go with the flow sometimes because of Mother Nature.” Weather conditions were good for the 18 races that were held in the half-strength meet, but it was stormy at the finish of the boys Division I race. Albuquerque Academy, which has won 12 New Mexico state boys championships in the past 17 years and seven Liberty Bell titles since 2002, had five runners finish in Liberty continues on Page 27

the top 12, but their actions at the finish line caused officials to disqualify the team. “That was the first time we’ve ever had a team DQ’d,” said Rossing. “It was for their unbelievable, unacceptable behavior after they crossed the finish line. They knocked down part of the chute and it wasn’t just one boy, it was several boys that were involved. With the other kids coming in behind them we were lucky we got times and places for the other kids because of what they did in the chute. Our games committee disqualified them. “Parents and other coaches that were standing there totally agreed with us with what we did. I understand on the MileSplit website there is some controversy and people chiming in and saying we shouldn’t have done all this, but they are dead wrong.” Albuquerque Academy coach Adam Kedge did not appeal the disqualification and the boys were allowed to keep their individual medals. “I felt bad about it but their coach didn’t appeal it,” continued Rossing. “He knew it was appropriate with what we did. He knew what they did was wrong. I feel so bad for him. You don’t come into the finish line like that and knock things over, curse like they did. “We let the kids keep their medals

but we didn’t give them the trophy. We are going to go ahead and order new medals. “This is costing us money. Losing 37 teams with their entry fees, we are going to refund their money. Now we are going to have to go buy new medals because of what happened and send those out to the other kids.” Arapahoe senior Louis Hood, who finished second in the boys Division 1 race with a time of 15:53, was listed as the champion after the disqualification of Albuquerque’s Kyle Carrozza. “This has been my best season so far,” said Hood. “I kind of like to race for time. I like to get as far up as I can in the standings and try to beat people. The conditions were beautiful, not too hot.” Douglas County’s Jake Lucero was credited with a second-place finish in 16:11, while Arapahoe’s Mason Brevig, Nick Petersen and Nick Moore came in sixth, seventh and 10th to give the Warriors the Division I team title. Arapahoe coach Chuck Lutz was surprised when he saw his team accepting the first-place trophy. “I was so focused on all the races that were going on that it wasn’t until I saw the boys on the risers and they handed us the first-place hardware,” said Lutz. “Then I started to get a little bit of information funneled in about a disqualification. “I think my guys ran super. They had a great race. They really had a great nice pack. Louis had an excellent race. It was the first time he ever gone sub-16. We ran a perfect score in both the JV races. In the open race, which is not scored, we had another

perfect score. Those two races were all Arapahoe.” Arapahoe’s Emily Wolf was third in the girls Division I race with a time of 18:23 and the Warriors were sixth in the team standings in the race won by the Albuquerque Academy girls. Jake Blackburn of Rock Canyon ran sixth in the boys Division 2 competition with a time of 16:22, and the Jaguars’ Phoebe Schneider was fourth in the girls race in 18:45. Heritage, paced by Zach Polonsky’s 12th-place finish, won the boys Division 2 race with Rock Canyon coming in second and ThunderRidge third. Pine Creek won the girls Division 2 race with ThunderRidge second, Rock Canyon fourth and Heritage sixth. “The boys are coming along and doing a great job,” said Rossing. “They are getting better and better each week which is exciting. Zach is a senior and he really stepped forward. He really took control of our pack. He had an exceptional race. The other kid that had an exceptional race was Lee Mahoney, who really stepped up as my fifth runner. It was because of him and Zach that we won.” Despite headaches involved with hosting the meet, Rossing praised the Cheyenne Mountain team for helping with the cleanup that also included the Heritage team. “It was so cool that the Cheyenne Mountain kids came over and helped us tear down the chutes at the end of the meet,” said Rossing. “That was a lot of work. Without even being asked, that team stepped forward. I’ve been coaching for 33 years now, I’ve never had a team pitch in and clean up at the Liberty Bell.”
