Two towering steel sculptures that also act as habitats for tiny pollinators will soon be introduced to ornton’s public park inventory.
e two art pieces, the creation of
two associated pollinator gardens, and other expenses cost $100,000.
e sculptures will be installed Eastlake #2 Open Space, E. 124th Ave., and Grange Hall Creek Park, E. 110th Avenue and Dahlia Drive, Erica Schmitt, ornton’s Public Art Coordinator, told the city council this week.
ose two parks were picked because they lack art pieces, Schmitt said.
“We are looking forward to adding something like this to those two locations,” she said.

J. Alderman – will create one sculpture that is a standing stag with small pollinator houses living at the tips of its antlers. e second sculpture is a lumbering bear with pollinator houses emerging from its back.
“ e ‘little villages’ of pollinator habitats on the larger mammals are a nod to the interconnectedness of pollinators and the rest of the ecosystem,” states a sta report to the city council.
Pollinators include birds, bats, butter ies, moths, ies, beetles, wasps, small mammals, and most
importantly, bees. ey visit owers to drink nectar or feed o of pollen and transport pollen grains as they move from spot to spot, according to Pollinator.org.
Without pollinators, the human race and all of Earth’s terrestrial ecosystems would die. Of the 1,400 crop plants grown around the world – those that produce all of our food and plant-based industrial products — almost 80% require pollination by animals, according to the United States Department of Agriculture.
For 15 years Golden Real Estate has been almost the only brokerage which does live-action video tours of its listings. Other brokerages make use of the “virtual tour” field in the MLS for videos that are nothing more than slideshows with music or Matterport tours which are interactive but miss the vital ingredient of a live action video tour — narration such as you’d get if you were walking through the house with the listing agent.
points of each room. To get a feel for this kind of video tour, go online to www.GRElistings.com and click on any one of our listings to watch the narrated video tour.
Our video tours are designed to simulate a live showing. As such, the video starts on the street, with me (or a broker associate) introducing the listing and perhaps showing the street scene. “Now let’s go inside and check out this home.”
Cut to the foyer and a walk through of the home, speaking as we go. “Notice the hardwood floors…. That’s a woodburning fireplace…. See the skylight in the vaulted ceiling…. These are Corian countertops…. The high efficiency washer and dryer are included…. Notice the mountain view out the kitchen window….” You get the idea.
No slideshow with music can compete with a narrated walk-through with the listing agent pointing out the selling
What makes this the right time for listing agents from other brokerages begin producing narrated video tours is the NAR settlement, which is likely to reduce the number of in-person showings at listed properties. If every listing had a narrated video tour, the number of showings would be reduced, because only those who watched the video tour and knew this listing might be a contender for them would go to the trouble of calling the listing agent or engaging a buyer agent to show them the listing.
By the way, narrated video tours are essential for attracting out-of-town buyers. More than once, an out-of-town buyer has gone under contract for one of our listings based solely on the narrated video tour, because they feel as if they have toured the home. The buyers still have the opportunity to terminate when they fly in for the inspection. None of those buyers terminated, however.
So, in this video age, what is keeping the majority — the vast majority — of
The primary outcome of the muchdiscussed NAR settlement announced in March is that buyers will now have to compensate agents representing them in the purchase of homes.
That change is scheduled to take effect on August 17th, so it makes sense that home buyers who have been “on the fence” are getting serious now about buying a home while they can still count on the seller, not them, paying their agent’s commission.
It doesn’t matter that their fear is unfounded. I fully expect sellers to keep offering to pay a “co-op” commission to the agents who bring them a buyer, even though that commission cannot be mentioned anywhere on the MLS.
Just this month, REcolorado, the Denver MLS, quietly introduced a new field for all listings. It’s a field to list another website, such as the websites we already create for every listing, and that website is allowed to mention the co-op commission for buyer agents since it does not derive its data from the MLS. If you want to see what that looks like, simply go to the website for my latest listing, www.ArvadaHome.info There on the home page of the website you will see the 2.8% co-op commission my seller is offering to buyer agents
under the headline, “Buyer Agent Commission Details.”
Nevertheless, the fear is very real among buyers that they will have to pony some serious money on top of their purchase price and loan expenses to pay for professional representation. Another development in this regard is the introduction of new mobile software called LivePad, which facilitates the process of showing homes to buyers when the showing agent doesn’t yet have a signed compensation agreement. In addition to some fine features for setting up a tour of listings, the tabletbased software allows the showing agent to create that requisite agreement on the tablet where the buyer can sign it digitally before entering the first listing. If the compensation agreement is for just that one day, the buyer can avoid paying the specified fee to their showing agent by waiting until the next day to make an offer under a new agreement. There may also be a surge in sellers putting their homes on the market prior to the August 17 deadline. Broker associate Chuck Brown had a seller get “off the fence” this month and sell his home, because he feared reduced buyer interest once buyers face the prospect of paying for their own agents.
listing agents from creating narrated video tours of their listings? I can only speculate, but here is my speculation. Listing agents like to farm out as many tasks as they can. They hire photographers (as we do) to shoot magazine quality photographs of their listings. Those vendors offer “videos” of the interior and drone videos of the exterior, and the listing agents think that’s sufficient. But there’s no narration of those videos, because the videographer would not know what to say. He only knows how to press “record” and “stop.”
The Matterport interactive tours are
very popular, and we include those on our listings too, but only because they are included in the enhanced package which we purchase that includes floor plans, which are done by the Matterport software. The Matterport tours are cool because they are shot with 360-degree lenses, allowing the viewer to rotate the view and even look up at the ceiling, then click on the next marker to go from room to room. But, again, no narration about what you are seeing. To call it a “video” is deceptive. It’s just a link that is inserted in one of the three “virtual tour” fields.
Reader Suggests the Pooling of Insured Homes as a Way to Reduce the Risks Causing Higher Insurance Premiums
One reader, Andrew Burt, recently responded to my request for creative solutions to the home insurance crisis caused primarily by the multiple natural and man-made disasters resulting in profit-crushing insurance claims.
His suggestion: the pooling of multiple homes so that the loss sustained by any one home is spread across the pool.
My first reaction was that this is how insurance works already. Insurance companies have thousands or millions of insured properties in the expectation that only a small percentage will file catastrophic claims.
Nevertheless, here is Andrew’s proposal, which he supported with some serious mathematical formulae not for publication in this lay publication.
“If I'm in a pool with, say, nine other properties, and one of them gets damaged, the insurer pays a claim but then distributes the cost of that claim over all 10 properties in next year's premium calculation — instead of raising just mine to cover all of it. (Or I cover all of it over an amortized number of years, which is what they seem to do rather than lumping their cost all into year one. It doesn't change the math of the idea. Spread the new premium costs over multiple people instead of just me.)”
Andrew compared his proposal to the Affordable Care Act, which insures everyone without regard to pre-existing
conditions, but requires everyone to be insured. (Wildfire risk is a “pre-existing condition.”) He suggested that widely separated properties within the state could be pooled to further spread the risk of multiple claims within the pool.
Mike Nelson was one of six featured speakers at the annual fundraiser for New Energy Colorado, held on June 20th at The Retreat at Solterra in Lakewood.
Viewers of Mike’s weather forecasts on Channel 7 know that he is passionate about climate change. In addition to addressing the topic, he gave away free copies of his 2020 booklet, “The World’s Littlest Book on Climate: 10 Facts in 10 Minutes About CO2.”
Also speaking at the well-attended event was U.S. Congresswoman Brittany Pettersen, State Sen. Lisa Cutter, Jeffco Commissioner Andy Kerr, State Rep. Brianna Titone, and Will Toor, director of the Colorado Energy Office. New Energy Colorado is best known for its annual Metro Denver Green Homes Tour on the first Saturday in October.

An environmental group that has opposed development projects on the Poudre River says it will sue to block Larimer County from allowing the river to feed into the longplanned City of ornton pipeline.
Save e Poudre says that the Larimer County Commissioners, who approved the pipeline proposal in May, should have required that ornton send the water down the Poudre River in Fort Collins instead of putting it in a pipeline. By not doing so, the commissioners have violated multiple sections of the county’s land use code, according to a Save e Poudre news release.
“It’s insane to divert the water out of the Poudre and put that water in a pipeline that crosses the river 12 miles downstream,” said Gary Wockner, who directs Save e Poudre, in the news release. “Using the river as the conveyance would increase the health of the river in Fort Collins, the riparian corridor along the river, and the recreational opportunity at the new Whitewater Park in downtown.”
City of ornton spokesman Todd Barnes declined to comment on the suit, which will be led in Larimer County District Court. “We don’t comment on potential litigation,” Barnes said.
e nal 10-mile section of the pipeline that will spur ornton’s growth for the next several years gained unanimous approval from the Larimer Commissioners in May. e granting of the 1041 permit for the pipeline project came after two lengthy public hearings along with
meetings with Larimer residents to ease fears about the impacts of the pipeline, say city o cials.
Most of the 70-mile pipeline will run through Weld and Adams counties before ending south of ornton.
Larimer County residents and environmentalists have long worried the pipeline would damage and drain the Poudre River. ornton bought the water rights to the river in 1986 and city o cials say the water they are conveying is already being diverted at a point at the Larimer County canal.
No additional diversions will be made once the pipeline is built, ofcials say.
ornton o cials say they have consistently reached out to critics of the pipeline to allay their fears about the project.
“Our approach has always been to not just meet but exceed regulatory and community outreach requirements, ensuring that our plans align with the broader goals of Larimer County and serve as a beacon for how communities can unite over signi cant projects, including water projects,” ornton Interim City Manager Brett Henry said in a prepared statement in May.
After talks with Larimer residents and county o cials, ornton produced a new route that is signicantly di erent than what was proposed in 2018 when Larimer County denied the plan, according to a city of ornton webpage.
e new alignment is 16.6 miles shorter than the previous one and includes a pump station located on private property owned by the Water Supply and Storage Company.
e location is just two miles north of the site proposed in 2018, according to the city.
Four smaller pollinator habitat public art projects were installed in four city locations in 2021: Grandview Pond Ponds Open Space, Heritage Trail Park, Park Village Park, and
is new location is located further away from residential development and recognizes the sentiment expressed by Larimer County residents for the pump station to be located on private, non-residential property, the city said.
e county’s approval of the 1041 permit application comes with 83 conditions. ey include requiring ornton to retain a soil scientist, agronomist or agricultural engineer to help property owners impacted by the construction to protect or reestablish soil health.
orton can also review the alignment of the pipeline by 100 feet on either side if it doesn’t cross a property line, is approved by the property owner, and meets the overall criteria, o cials say.
State law cited
Huron Green Park, according to the sta report. e Huron Green pieces were relocated to the ornton Arts and Culture annex garden location at 9211 Dorothy Boulevard after vandals damaged three butter y totem sculptures, according to the city sta report.
Alderman’s art pieces are scheduled to be installed by Dec. 31, Schmitt said.
Save e Poudre points out in its legal comment letter that the Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP) changed state law to speci cally allow using the Fort Collins Poudre River corridor as the conveyance for about 13,500 acre-feet of its water.
But the Larimer County Commissioners failed to require ornton to do the same thing for almost the same amount of ornton’s water (14,000 acre-feet), according to the Save e Poudre news release.
“If NISP can do it voluntarily, ornton must do it too,” said Wockner. “ e legal and policy precedent set by NISP must be applied to ornton, and we will seek court intervention to enforce it.”
During the 10-year battle over the ornton pipeline, and throughout the recent hearings in Larimer County, nearly every single public comment from people of Larimer County — over a thousand in the 10year process, and at least a hundred in the recent hearings — supported using the river as the conveyance for
Funding for the two sculptures comes through the Scienti c and Cultural Facilities District and Adams County Open Space Sales Tax proceeds, the sta report states.
City Council members this week praised the two pieces saying they are whimsical while also carrying a message about the importance of pollinators to Colorado’s environment.
water, Wockner said in the news release.
“ is decision not only violates the land use code, it violates the will of the people,” said Wockner. “Save e Poudre will stand up for the people of Larimer County and seek a better outcome for the Poudre River and the community.”
Save e Poudre is also involved in two lawsuits against the Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP) — in the state court of appeals and in federal district court, both in Denver. In part, Save the Poudre is arguing that NISP should use the river as the conveyance for all 40,000-acre feet of its water, the news release states.
“ e NISP battle has been playing out for 20 years and may continue for several more. NISP also needs a 1041 permit to run a pipeline across City of Fort Collins Natural Areas, a permit process that hasn’t begun yet,” it reads.
“I am excited to see this,” Mayor Jan Kulmann said.
Council members also asked why a Colorado artist was not picked for the project. Schmitt said that while 15 Colorado-based artists were looked at, Alderman was the clear choice. Still, ornton is “trying to connect more and more with Colorado artists,” Schmitt said.

e two candidates vying in the Democratic primary for Colorado’s Senate District 19 have each gathered several endorsements from prominent members of their own party.
For Westminster Councilor Obi Ezeadi they include Jade Kelly, presidents of CWA Local 7799, Vicky Lopez, community activist, and two
Adams County Commissioners –Eva Henry and Emma Pinter.
Ezeadi’s opponent - current State Rep. Lindsey Daugherty - has collected endorsements from Congress-
man Joe Neguse, former Congressman Ed Perlmutter and Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser.
Daugherty, however, can now list Gov. Jared Polis on her list of prominent backers after the state’s top Democrat gave her his endorsement last week.
Daugherty said this week that she sometimes di ered with Polis on some policy issues. But his endorsement shows that he respects her ability to work with people even though she disagreed with their positions.
“I think I work well with the governor’s o ce, and even though we were at odds sometimes I aways try
to listen to someone else’s perspective,” said Daugherty. “And I think he appreciates that.”
Ezeadi said in an email statement that he supported for Polis for governor. But Ezeadi was dismayed that Polis recently sided with big corporations by vetoing three key bills that were designed to protect working families: HB24-1307 (HVAC improvements for PK -12 schools), HB24-1008 (prevented wage theft), and HB24-1260 (protection from listening to political, religious, or anti-union propaganda from your employer).

While the county Environmental Health Team monitors for mosquitoborne illnesses, there are steps you can take right now to keep you and your loved ones safe. ose include ensuring pet dishes are removed from patios that can hold water, making sure roof gutters are cleaned and inspected yearly, removing debris piles from outdoor areas— including buckets, barrels, children’s toys, and tire swings— and removing or changing water in birdbaths frequently.
Homeowners should also maintain swimming pools and spas with proper ltration and chlorination levels, limit watering lawn and plants to avoid water pooling and limit your time outdoors during dusk and dawn to avoid mosquitoes. If you stay outdoors during this time, wear long-sleeved shirts and pants and use mosquito repellents that contain a high percentage of DEET.

Victims of domestic abuse or sexual assault in Adams County should not have to wait days and face travel to another hospital to get a forensic exam, Intermountain Health Platte Valley Hospital Registered Nurse April Vialpando said.
“ ey have gone through enough,” said Vialpando, coordinator for the Brighton hospital’s Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) program.
SANE specialists o er customized services for sexual assault and domestic violence victims and gather evidence against their alleged assailants.
“When a patient comes in here it’s our job to believe them and make them feel heard,” Vialpando said. “We want to empower them to move forward,” Vialpando added.
She said the hospital now has even more tools to aid victims through an expansion of the SANE program af-
Worrying about your uneven or cracked concrete can make owning a home very stressful. By investing in concrete repair, you can fix your driveway, walkways, patio, and more in one easy lift.
ter Adams County awarded Platte Valley a $438,000 grant to grow its forensic exam e orts.
Assault victims get treatment for physical injuries, but a forensic exam calls for the gathering of evidence by a specialized caregiver from a suspected assault victim, Vialpando said. e exam includes a detailed history of the assault, a swab for a DNA sample, photographs of any injury, possibly prescribing medication for the victim and working up a safe discharge plan for them, she said.
Sometimes hospitals don’t have a trained clinician available, and it could take hours for one to arrive, Vialpando said.
Victims are often sent to a hospital in Denver, Boulder or Aurora for the exam. e wait can be too long for some patients, and they simply skip the exam altogether, she said.
“Some patients simply cannot wait,” said Andrea Moore, emergency department director for Platte Valley Hospital. “ ey have gone through enough already.”
Nurses who become quali ed forensic examiners go through extensive on-the-ground training. eir expertise is often called upon by
police and prosecutors when they pursue cases against alleged assailants. ey also can be called expert witnesses in court, Vialpando said.
Platte Valley introduced its SANE program in January. e e ort includes six specially trained nurses, dedicated equipment, and rooms designed for the care of sexual assault victims, according to county o cials.
“By expanding the SANE program, we are ensuring that victims of these horri c crimes receive the care and support they need without unnecessary delays or obstacles,” said Adams County Commissioner and Chair Emma Pinter in a news release. “ is grant is a signi cant step in our commitment to improving public health and safety in our community.”
e program opened Vialpando’s eyes about the amount of violence against women. Since the program began, they have treated 55 patients by the end of May, she said. Only about a quarter stem from sexual assault with the rest stemming from domestic abuse.
“It’s more prevalent than anyone wants to think about,” Vialpando said. “It’s even more important that we help the victims when they come her looking for help.”
The contentious new water treatment plant - or “Drinking Water Facility” as the city sta likes to call it - has been quietly moving ahead.
I say contentious because some current council members continue to doubt or be suspect of facts and gures quoted by sta regarding the plant. In particular, Council member Kathrine Ireland was caustic and challenging. Was this from her close relationship and co-council candidate with former Councilmember Bruce Baker?
At a recent city council brie ng, sta informed the council that the 14.7 million gallon per day plant’s design was 60% complete, the raw water line design was 90% complete and the nished water and sanitary sewer design documents were 30% done. As you can guess, the magnitude and complexity of a water treatment plant design and speci cations encompass a mountain of detail and is time consuming.
With the design phase headed toward completion, it allows the opportunity to do a thorough cost estimate. is is essential in order to size the nancing of the construction work. Based on work done to date, sta is recommending a plan which calls for $190 million in Utility Enterprise Revenue Bonds and $50 million in cash reserves.
Why does Community Reach need so much?
Council gave the Community Reach organizations, at the June 10, 2024 meeting, all but free rent in City owned buildings. I am sure that most other organizations in Westminster would like to get free rent for their operations.
By the way, utility revenue bonds do not require a vote of the people per the Westminster City Charter - in case you were wondering. A total of $52 million has been spent thus far on the project consisting of $32 million for the land condemned and $20 million for consultant/engineering fees. e total projected cost is a whopping $292 million.
Sta analyzed 20, 30 and 40 year bond redemption scenarios. ey are recommending the 30-year option.
A major factor in deciding the length of paying o the debt ties back to an annual water rate increase of no more than 4.5%. A 20-year bond issue would require a 7.5% annual rate increase; a 30-year redemption would be 4.5% and the 40-year scenario would fall to 2.5%.
Total interest cost on the 20-year approach would be an estimated $84.8 million; 30-year at $149.5 million and $222.7 million for the 40year plan.
So, you can see sta ’s thinking is balancing interest costs with the necessary annual water rate to cover the annual debt cost. While I do not recall a city debt issuance of any type being spread over 30-years, I can appreciate the “pluses and minuses” to go with the 30-year plan.
It’s good to re ect back on the previous plan for a new water treatment plant under the previous city council’s and administration’s approach. You may recall the “Water 2025” project. eir plan called for a 30 million gallon per day plant. Can you imagine today’s cost if building the facility and appurtenances at such a capacity? Extrapolating from the $292 million cost for a 14.7 MGD plant, an estimated cost to construct a 30 million gallon per day plant would be in the neighborhood of $500,000,000. at is one-half billion (with a B) dollars.
Can you imagine the annual water rate which would be required to pay that annual principal and interest pay? While $292 million is an outlandish amount of money in itself for any city to pay, it is far better than having to pay approximately one half billion dollars!
What were then-City Manager Don Tripp and Mayors Herb Atchison and Anita Seitz and City Council thinking?
Student enrollment in some public school districts is trending downward. It’s a fact. A lower birth rate, the lack of a ordability in housing and bouncing back from COVID-19 are given as reasons for this trend.
Let’s start by looking at Denver Public Schools (DPS). ey are projecting a drop in enrollment by 6,338 students within the next ve years. DPS did see a one year “bump” in enrollment in the last school year due to 4,700 migrant students lling schools in their district.
Adams 12 Schools have seen a steady ve-year downward trend in their student count. Starting with the 2019-20 school year, their head count was 38,707. Ensuing years were 20202021 at 36,654, 2021-2022 at 36,078, 2022-2023 down to 35,747 and the most recent year at 34,998 students. at represents a 9.5% decline in enrollment for the ve-year period. For Westminster Public Schools (WPS) there is even a more severe drop in enrollment for the same period of time. Starting with 2019-2020, the total enrollment was 9,090. Subsequent years were 2020-2021 at 8,373, 2021-2022 at 8,320, 2022-2023 at 8,001 and this past school year at 7,631.
Councilor Ireland brought to Council’s attention the fact the Community Reach organizations are very successful and pro table. According the required IRS Form 990 lings the organizations have over $46 million dollars of assets (Form 990, Tax year 2021, Part 1 line 22) and several business locations. How a non-pro t attains such wealth I do not know.
is organization is so successful that they paid their leader, Richard Doucet, over $476,000 in compensation in 2021. Furthermore, Mr. Doucet has been paid nearly $400,000 or more for the last several years (IRS Form 990 lings).
Unfortunately, no other member of Council addressed Ms Ireland’s information. Why? Were they embarrassed to be caught giving away city money to their rich “friends”?
is lease was to be heard again by Council on June 24. ere is time for Council to do the right thing and be fair to all the other valuable, decent, worthy businesses in Westminster. Council could and should charge a fair rent for use of city property.

e Westminster City Council is under pressure to back out of its commitments to the Rocky Mountain Greenway connections to the Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge.
e Greenway will eventually link Denver with Rocky Mountain National Park. A “study session” of the City Council, scheduled for July 15 at 6 p.m. in the Westminster City Hall, already has a panel of six antinuclear, anti-refuge spokesmen.
e groups they represent wish not only to block completion of the Greenway but also to close the Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge to the public.
e session agenda, when available, will be at https://www.westminsterco.gov/agendas.
You can express your support for the Greenway and the science behind refuge safety. More at https:// rocky atsneighbors.org/events/ list/, which includes links to a review of what the anti-nuclear people will probably claim, rebuttal (quite easy), and some of the actual science about refuge safety. If you are a refuge user (and potential Greenway user) PLEASE ll out the brief survey at https:// forms.gle/v3QVw8jzEg73Afnf8. It is meant to represent people who actually live around and use the refuge.

WPS has experienced a 16% drop in students in the last five years. This does not take into account at least 2,500- 3,000 students who live within WPS boundaries, but choose to attend a different school district.
The loss of student head count has a consequence to it both financially and operationally. The state government provides the significant amount of funding to each district using a per student head count from October each year. With fewer students, the amount provided historically has been reduced.
Under the new school finance law, the financial need of each district plays a larger factor in the amount paid. Besides less state funding, there are operational considerations such as school building closures and reduction of needed teachers.
A good question for the public to ask their school board and superintendent is “what specifically are you doing to turn this trend around? Also, what is your plan to “stop the fiscal bleeding” for the next five years?
Colorado Aerotropolis promoted
The June 17 Denver Post article headline stated “Efforts to build `airport city’ underway.” At first glance, you might think this concept or effort is brand new. However, it has been around since 2016 when Denver, DIA, Adams County and some municipalities came together to work closer together in the economic and marketing effort to attract new development around Denver International Airport.
What exactly is an aerotropolis? According to Colorado Aerotropolis, it is “a hub of opportunities for high quality employers that will create jobs, invest in the community and strengthen the economy.” Initial visioning, mapping of the study area and identifying the governmental “players” were accomplished after the 2016 intergovernmental agreement was inked.
Early concepts touched on a regional government or some type of governance structure, but nothing has come forward in the intervening eight years. The term “aerotropolis” was introduced to the Denver metro public back in Denver Mayor Michael Hancock’s tenure, but it really didn’t take off.
This latest promo seems to be an attempt to re-light the fire to create
visibility and promote heavy development around DIA.
DIA is Colorado’s biggest economic engine
According to a 2023 study, DIA’s total economic contribution was approximately $36.4 billion. The airport property itself is 53 square miles in land area with Denver and Aurora best positioned to gain economically from additional development.
In particular, the governmental group sees such sectors as agriculture, biomedical, quantum computing, energy, advanced manufacturing and transportation as being prime to locate within the Aerotropolis boundaries. There are 16,000 acres available for development within the focus area. The group points out some key factors which should gain the attention of prospective companies interested in moving to the area.
Colorado is the third best educated state in the country, #3 best state economy in the US and #3 most connected airport in the country. DIA offers 28 non-stop international destinations.
Making the Aerotropolis stronger
Colorado Aerotropolis has a lot of positive things going for it as listed above. Currently, it functions as a marketing and promoter for the DIA development area.
Each city or county functions separately when it comes to infrastructure commitments with new development activity and land use decisions. Perhaps, some type of “overlay” via an intergovernmental agreement could provide a shared approach on infrastructure financing and collaborative land use. Having a shared master development plan would also be a step in the right direction.
The more the individual entities in the Aerotropolis could merge into a single cohesive unit, the more effective it would be. After all, Colorado Aerotropolis is competing with approximately 16 other airport-focused development entities such as Atlanta with its Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
The concept of cooperating together to promote and market the subject area was a good first step eight years ago, but it is time to take the next step forward.

Whether it’s dipping your toes in at the local pool or swimming at an open lake, a good way to beat the heat is getting in the water, and there are many water activities to choose from in the Denver metro area.
For some, summertime is a time to relax, but for others, it’s a time to be adventurous and create memories with family.
Here is a guide to some of the best places to swim in the metro area as well as enjoy fresh water.
The Splash at Fossil Trace
Monday-Sunday, Pool Hours: 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Monday-Sunday
Enjoy the twists and turns of the water slides at e Splash Aquatic Park while taking in the green scenery of the Front Range.
“It de nitely has the more foothills-feel as opposed to the urban feel of Elitches or Water World,” said Betsy Sweet, aquatic supervisor for the city. “It’s less crowded.”
Across the park, guests have views of Lookout Mountain and Mount Zion, which is the mountain decorated with the “M” for the Colorado School of Mines.
As part of Golden’s Parks and Recreation Department, e

Splash goes beyond the standard recreational swimming pool. From those learning how to walk to the community’s seniors, the waterpark has amenities for all ages and swimming abilities.
“Not only is it fun for kids, but the adults in the world have fun as well,” Sweet said.
Popular among children is the leisure beach-entry pool that includes a large play structure, small water slides, spray fountains and “Tipper,” the 500-gallon dump bucket. But for the little ones who want to be in the water but aren’t con dent in swimming just yet, there is a gentle splash pad.
One of the most popular attractions for those 48 inches and taller are the two water slides, the green
body slide and the blue tube slide. If those under the height requirement want to ride the blue slide, they must ride with an adult. e park also has a 25-meter lap pool with eight lanes for the more experienced swimmers as well as an open swim area and diving boards.
With interactive structures around the park, Sweet said e Splash is home to the biggest sandbox in Je erson County, which also has dinosaur fossils to dig up.
Admission fees for Golden residents range from $8-11 based on age, $9-12 for Je erson County residents and $10-13 for non-residents.
Paradice Island Pool
5951 Monaco St., Commerce City, Colorado 80022 | 303-289-3769 | c3gov.com/paradice | facebook.com/ paradiceisland/ | Open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. daily through Aug.11
Commerce City is a fast-growing and diverse community with over 1,000 businesses, a golf course and soccer complex, 25 miles of trials and a swimming pool.
Opened in 2015 on the east end of Pioneer Park, Paradice Island Pool was a rst-of-its-kind in Commerce City.
e park ranges from a toddler pool with interactive water features for young ones to a leisure pool to a lap pool for the more advanced swimmers. Guests can have a relaxing time on the lazy river or feel the adrenaline when going down one of three slides.
Other non-water features at the park include play structures, volleyball, shaded areas and cabanas for rent. It’s a place to gather with friends and family. Coolers, chairs, pop-up tents, party decorations and food are allowed, but not alcohol and glass.
Admission rates for residents with a valid city recreation play pass range from free to $4 based on age. For nonresidents who don’t have a play pass, the fee ranges from free to $10.
Adventure West
423 10th St. (rear), Golden, Colorado 80401 | 720-722-1645 | adventurewestco@gmail.com|adventurewestco. com/
2920 Brewery Lane, Littleton, Colorado, 80120
One of the most popular and thrilling activities in the City of Golden is Whitewater River Tubing on Clear Creek. Daily tube rentals are open every day and include commercialgrade river tubes with complimentary life jackets and helmets. Shoes, not ip- ops, are required.
Adventure West owner Beth Battilla said when the Golden location rst opens for the season, it’s for adults and strong swimmers only. It is then gradually opened to others as the ow rate drops.
“Golden is best for most people mid-to-late July onwards,” Battilla said. “Unless you are really comfortable swimming in swift water, then by all means, come earlier.”
Although online reservations aren’t required at this location, reservations guarantee a tube and speed up the check-in process. Battilla added that reservations are highly recommended on weekends as tubes tend to sell out.
ose under the age of 17 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
While the location in Golden is an “exciting” oat, Adventure West’s location in Littleton is more of a “mellow” and “picturesque” oat, and online reservations are required.
Here, guests can drift along the South Platte River for upwards of two hours and take in the sights of the Carson Nature Center.
Children must be ve years of age or older and parking is available at Breckenridge Brewery.
“( ey) are out tted with a commercial grade river tube, life jacket, given our tubing tips and a safety talk,” Battilla said.
Cherry Creek and Chatfield Reservoirs
4201 South Parker Road, Aurora, Colorado 80014 | 303.690.1166 | cpw. state.co.us
11500 N. Roxborough Park Road, Littleton, Colorado 80125 | 303.791.7275 | cpw.state.co.us
From swimming to jet skiing, local reservoirs o er a variety of water activities and programs.
Colorado is known for its mountain range, but there are sandy beaches families and friends can visit as well.
Cherry Creek Reservoir has a ropedo swimming area for people to cool o . It’s important to note that Colorado State Park swim beaches don’t have lifeguards on duty, so children must be supervised by an adult at all times.
In addition to sailboarding and boating, the reservoir also o ers a youth rowing program called Mile High Rowing Club and an adaptive sailing program called Community Sailing of Colorado.
Another sandy beach sits on the west side of the Chat eld Reservoir and is open from sunrise to sunset through Sept. 2. e beach is complete with showers, restrooms and picnic areas with small grills.
e reservoir is divided into multiple zones. One is the main body of the reservoir, known as the “Power Zone” and is for general boating, water skiing and sailing and moves in a counterclockwise direction.
ere are two large “No Wake
Zones” at the southwest and southeast ends of the reservoir, which are more ideal for shing and canoeing. Paddle Boarding is allowed in all bodies of water except for the swim area.
River Run Park
2101 W Oxford Ave., Englewood, CO, 80110 | endlesswaveco@gmail. com|endlesswaves.net/waves/riverrun-park/
It may not be a common sight in Colorado, but there are places to surf.
River Run Park on the South Platte River is one of many and has been expanding over the years to allow transplanted surfers from the ocean to hit the waves.
“ e waves get sort of more powerful and more challenging to ride as you go upstream,” said Jacob Vos, a director of the Colorado River Sur ng Association.
e most beginner-friendly wave in the park is “Chiclets” while the other two waves, “Benihanas” and “Six” are more high-speed and dynamic as they have hydraulic plates that are in the river to help shape the waves and attune them to the ow of the river.
“ at adjustability doesn’t mean the waves work for all conditions all the time, but it certainly widens the range of ows,” Vos said.
Since river sur ng di ers from ocean sur ng, Vos stresses that ankle leashes can be deadly in an “insidious” way because the force of the river makes it challenging to reach the ankle to release the leash.
Other features in the park are conducive for whitewater kayaking and
tubing, but Vos encourages users to check the South Platte River Union water gauges — which show how much water is in the river — and recommends wearing a helmet.
If the gauges show 100 CFS cubic feet per square, it’s more mellow, Vos said, but when it gets up to 1,000 cubic feet per square, the water is more violent.
“If people are just oating or just hanging out, they can have rude surprises if they don’t pay attention to those ows,” Vos said.
Parking is available at the Broken Tree Golf Course, however, the gates close in the evening. Parking is also available on the west side of the river. If there are additional questions, like where to get equipment, the Colorado Rivers Facebook group serves as a message board for the river sur ng community.

Colorado, with its dramatic mountain landscapes, deep winter snow and thriving ski industry, has been referred to as the “Switzerland of America.” Gov. Jared Polis even once used the phrase.
e similarities were are more than just a name. A delegation of experts from Switzerland visited Boulder in early June for a summit on melting snow and ice. Mountain guides, climate scientists, artists and policymakers shared notes on the impacts of climate change on high-mountain landscapes.
ose experts painted a fairly bleak picture as they described the role of warming trends in reshaping the snow and ice that de ne the Rockies and Alps.
Perhaps the most striking accounts of those changes came from mountain guides, who lead groups of climbers and adventurers on trips through the peaks. Angela Hawse, a Ridgway-based guide and vice president of the International Federation of Mountain Guides Association, shared videos of icefalls and rockfalls from around the world, showing how large pieces of mountains are falling apart as the ice and snow that holds them together disappears.
Hawse and Switzerland-based Urs Wellauer, the association’s president, both expressed optimism in nding xes to climate problems through collaboration. Hawse reected on a trip the binational group took to Boulder County’s Brainard Lake as part of the conference.
“It really brought us together as a bunch of individuals that have di erent perspectives on life,” she said, “ at have di erent professions, that have di erent ways of looking at the mountains and ways of understanding how we can work together to communicate our experiences for that shared experience of moving forward.”
Climate scientists from both countries presented data about a number of climate factors that are rapidly changing the behavior of high-altitude snow and ice. Temperature and precipitation patterns in the Rockies and Alps are changing, and the two regions share even more granular similarities.
Researchers explained how windblown dust in Colorado is landing on top of snow, making it darker, absorbing more radiation from the sun and melting faster. at phenomenon makes it harder to capture and share water from the Colorado River, which is used by 40 million people across the Southwest.

blown across the Mediterranean is a factor in the quickening melting of glaciers. e nation’s glaciers lost 10% of their total volume in 2022 and 2023, the same amount that melted in the three decades between 1960 and 1990.
Emily Zmak, a deputy chief at the Colorado Water Conservation Board who focuses on interstate water policies, remarked at the many similarities between the challenges facing both Colorado and Switzerland, and the potential solutions.
“ ere’s also a sense of optimism,” Zmak said. “We haven’t lost all of our snowpack, we still have time to adapt and be smart, to build community resilience to build resilience
at a state or federal government level.”
Ambassador Balz Abplanalp, the Swiss representative for the Western U.S., organized the conference and said international collaboration will be a key part of global climate change solutions going forward.

Injuries related to firearms in Colorado racked up at least $8.4 million in medical bills in 2022, according to a recently released analysis.
The report, produced by the Center for Improving Value in Health Care, or CIVHC, is the first of its kind to examine some of the economic impacts of firearm injuries. But it is in keeping with a growing effort in Colorado to think of gun-related harms as a health issue and to study them in the same way researchers might look at other public health challenges.
“It’s an important way to look at things,” said Dr. Emmy Betz, the director of the Firearm Injury Prevention Initiative at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, who was not involved in the new study.
“It helps people think about another aspect of this specifically beyond the deaths.”
To conduct this analysis, CIVHC relied on a powerful tool — the state’s all-payer claims database, which has amassed anonymized data from more than a billion Colorado medical claims drawn from more than 5.5 million unique people.
In addition to the dollar amount, CIVHC also found some concerning trends within the data.
Between 2016 and 2022, the rate of medical claims for firearm-related injuries increased 53%. But it increased even more for injuries to kids: 120%.
Men were three times more likely than women to suffer firearm injuries. And rural counties generally have higher rates of injury than urban ones.

and CEO, said in a statement that the analysis shows “the critical need for continued focus on comprehensive public health, education, and community-tailored initiatives aimed at addressing and preventing firearm violence.”
Many firearms injuries — particularly homicides and suicides — do not result in a medical claim for tragic reasons. So CIVHC’s analysis ended up weighted heavily toward an often less examined area: unintentional injuries. Of the more than 7,000 claims analyzed for 2022, 72% were coded for unintentional injuries. Next came assaults at 17%.
Betz said the analysis ultimately is a snapshot of just one slice of gunrelated harms. But even still Betz said medical claims data can provide valuable insight into the issues underlying gun injuries.
“It raises concerns for me about what is happening in those homes and why firearms are maybe not being locked up in those homes,” she said.
That question can help identify where public health campaigns — such as the state’s Let’s Talk Guns, Colorado campaign, which promotes gun safety and safe storage — could have an impact.
The idea of treating guns and the potential negative consequences associated with them as a public health issue is gaining momentum in Colorado. (Experts in the field prefer the term firearm-related harms to the term gun violence because they believe the latter creates an impression that most injuries or deaths are due to assaults. Contrary to public perception, the large majority of firearm-related deaths in Colorado are suicides.)
Lawmakers in 2021 created the state Office of Gun Violence Preven-
tion, which provides data on firearms issues in the state and gives grants to communities and organizations looking to tackle gun-related problems. CU’s Firearm Injury Prevention Initiative conducts research. And earlier this spring, a new program launched to try to better connect the pieces.
The Firearm-Related Harm and Violence Prevention Program Office, which is housed in the Trailhead Institute, hopes to work with organizations to help them examine gun-related issues in their communities and then apply for resources to address them.
“This is an opportunity to move past ideologies and rhetoric,” said Jonathan McMillan, the program office’s director.
McMillan, who formerly led the state’s Office of Gun Violence Prevention, was in Washington, D.C., last week for a meeting with the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention and other local violenceprevention programs — showing that interest in tackling the health aspects of gun issues is not just a Colorado phenomenon.
He said the goal of the public health work is not to take away guns or criticize those who own and value them. Rather, he said, it’s to help communities identify areas of concern — it may be suicides in one community or interpersonal violence in another — and then to work with those communities on specific strategies to address the issues.
“It’s about helping communities speak more to what their needs are,” McMillan said.

A dead bat that tested positive for rabies may have been in contact with a dog at a residential property in Weld County, according to a June 3 news release.
Kristeen Bevel, the environmental health specialist at the Weld County Public Health and Environment, said that since the rabies virus sporadically occurs in bat populations, officials do not suspect it was an infection from another source.
“It’s not common, but very few bats have rabies,” Bevel said. “But because of the severity of the disease, anytime bats are in contact with people or pets, we are concerned. It’s when we’re testing them,” Bevel said.
The property owner contacted
animal control and the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment (WCDPHE). According to officials, Colorado State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory received the bat for testing, confirmed it tested positive, and forwarded the result to the WCDPHE. According to officials, the dog who may have encountered the bat has been vaccinated against rabies and is being monitored by the owner and veterinarians.
Health officials indicated that summer is the peak season for rabies in Colorado, so to keep domestic animals such as cats, dogs, horses, and livestock safe, they must be vaccinated.
According to officials, rabies is spread through a bite from an infected bat or rabid animal; once bitten, it spreads quickly when the saliva
or tissues encounter cuts, scratches, eyes, nose, or mouth.
In Weld County, there have been no reports of human deaths related to rabies exposure, according to officials.
Bevel said that bats often hide during the day and come out right around dusk, moving around and trying to catch bugs and eat.
“During the day, they lay low and sleep. They often roost in areas where they can hide from the sun and the bright lights. Also, commonly hide in eaves and roofs, or sometimes right around the edges of siding,” Bevel said.
“Or they can hang from trees, which are very common places where they hang out. Occasionally, they find other spots to hang out that
are less convenient for people, like underneath a patio umbrella.”
Bevel said that some bats stay around during the summer, but some migrate from a warmer climate. Several different species of bats live in Colorado, and so some hide out and stay here year-round and migrate at different times of year.
“Summer is the time of year when bat form their maternity colonies and moms all get- together and they have their babies and take care of their babies,” Bevel said.
For more information, visit weld. gov/go/zoonosis or contact WCDPHE at (970) 400-2290 if anyone or their pet has had contact with a wild animal. For after-hours (outside of 8 a.m. - 5 p.m., Monday-Friday), contact Weld County Dispatch at (970) 350-9600 and select option 4.

“I supported his election to Governor, but I am extremely disappointed in these recent actions, including trying to influence our election by endorsing my opponent,” Ezeadi said. “My lack of endorsement combined with these attacks from wealthy special interest groups should be a signal to people that I am the working-class champion that will always prioritize people over profit, small business over big (corporations) and community over self-interest.”
Dark money claims
Ezeadi, who was elected to the Westminster City Council in 2021, has been targeted by a group called Progressives for Accountability and Real Change. The group’s mailers
claim Ezeadi has sided with corporate interests during his term on the council.
Ezeadi denies the assertions and says he is being singled out by a “dark money organization” for his stances backing paid leave for city employees and ensuring affordable housing in the city.
Daugherty denies any knowledge of the mailers.
Ezeadi and Daugherty are hoping to occupy the Senate seat currently occupied by Rachel Zenzinger who will be term-limited by November.
Daugherty has represented House District 24 since 2021. She said she is seeking a place in the Senate because it has a “greater reach” politically.
“I think I am ready for it,” said Daugherty, an attorney. She would be the only female attorney in the Colorado Senate if she is elected.
Daugherty represented the inter-
ests of children in court and said has sponsored legislation to support Colorado’s youth.
“I will always make sure the voices of youth are heard and will work to make sure they get the services they need at the right time,” Daugherty said.
She also said she will strive to protect women’s reproductive rights.
“I think voters really care about the reproductive rights for women and right now little girls have less rights than I did when I was growing up,” Daugherty said. “In Colorado, it is important to protect that right.”
Ezeadi is the son of Nigerian immigrants and only the second Black councilor elected in Westminster history.
His city of Westminster biography states he has professional certifications in strategic planning, project management and procurement/ supply management. He said he has
nearly two decades of professional experience in the fields of healthcare, transportation, real estate, technology, and hospitality.
Ezeadi is also a small business owner and entrepreneur and started an investment company focused on acquiring alternative assets and investing in small businesses, according to his biography.
If elected, Ezeadi said he would restore effective governance: collaboration, civility, and problem-solving, according to his statement to Colorado Politics.
“They (voters) should choose me to bring my working-class perspective to a government often detached from everyday struggles,” Ezeadi said. “With proven leadership in housing the poor, supporting seniors, and educating youth, plus extensive experience in housing healthcare, and technology, I am uniquely equipped to end government dysfunction.”

If you yearn to fly back to the sounds of yesteryear, you will love soaring to new heights with Boulder’s own Sun Jr, appearing at the MILE HIGH HOEDOWN later this month! The band’s sound is a blend of psychedelia, cosmic cowboy and Americana with indie-folk influences.
Friends Nod Norkus (drums), Jim Heekin (guitar/singer), Matt Kubis (banjo/singer), Jon Schimek (pedal steel guitar), and Jeremiah Streets (keys/ bass/organ) launched the band in 2013. They practiced in the evenings in Jim’s basement (“The Bottoms”), where they have become a “band of brothers.”
Sun Jr. hit the stage with a style all their own and immediately made an impression. From a spot on the “Gentleman of the Road” tour in Salida with Mumford & Sons, Dawes and the Flaming Lips in 2015, they’ve grinded their way into a stellar act that you cannot miss.
During the 2020 COVID pandemic, the band leaned heavily into long basement jams, taking notes from the likes of Pink Floyd and late ’60s bands that played for art’s sake. They branched into livestreaming to reach out to more folks and have continued to do so.
“In February 2024, (Heekin) posted a TikTok video of our song ‘Buttercorn’ from a live performance at Dharma Farm
— and it went viral,” Norkus said. “The post garnered 2.3 million views and about 40,000 new fans.”
The post was the mega break that has opened more doors to some of Colorado’s best venues and a “second media wave” of the post expanded their reach even farther, he said.
“We started receiving invitations to play in California, Texas, and points beyond the U.S.,” Norkus said.
The band’s current goal is
mostly to ignore national invites and build an ardent local fan base. To stay connected, they are partnering with Chris Wright of Violet Recording to capture their Colorado live shows to share more broadly. Wright will also engineer a series of in-studio live recordings, possibly capturing two albums from this dual recording process.
Visit sunjrband.com for the latest band information (recordings, play dates — and more)! Then, “go down” to the MILE HIGH HOEDOWN and enjoy Sun Jr.’s “Psych Mountain Rock” ex-
perience LIVE at the Stampede, 2431 S. Havana Street, in Aurora.
MILE HIGH HOEDOWN attendees can enjoy food truck food and beverages, learn new line dances with instructor/choreographer Laurie Burkardt, “creative cut” or screen print their own T-shirt with Ink & Drink, purchase a custom hat from hat shaper Parker Thomas, get a “flash” tattoo from Ace of MR. ACE Art & Tattoos; and visit Little People Face Painting for cool, but not permanent, body/ face/hair art — you’ll be sure to sparkle during Sun Jr.’s LIVE, never-to-be-duplicated hoedown performance!

State board approves $300,000 grant for Centennial Airport’s unleaded fuel e ort
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Centennial Airport will get a $300,000 grant to support an ongoing program to provide more environmentally friendly unleaded fuel for the facility’s piston-powered aircraft. Neighbors and other critics have targeted both Centennial Airport in Arapahoe County and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in Broomeld for using lead fuel in their small aircraft. Lead fuel is a leading cause of air pollution and contributes to health problems for those who live near the airports, say activists.
Both airports are ranked among the busiest general aviation airports in the country, according to the Pilot Institute.
e grant to Centennial from the Colorado Aeronautical Board will support a price subsidy program at the airport aimed at making the transition from lead to unleaded fuel aviation fuels more economical, according to a news release from the Colorado Aeronautical Board.
Centennial Airport in May 2023 became the rst airport in Colorado to o er unleaded aviation fuel at their JetCenters of Colorado Fixed Base Operator (FBO), the news release states.
e move marked a critical step towards eliminating lead fuels for piston aircraft in Colorado. To help address the higher cost of transitioning to unleaded aviation fuel, in 2023, the
airport developed and executed an agreement with JetCenters of Colorado to implement a subsidy program, states the news release.
is program allows the FBO to provide unleaded aviation fuel at nearly the same price as its low-lead counterpart and then be reimbursed by the airport for the price di erence. To date, the subsidy program has shown promise, as over 80% of the training aircraft operating at Centennial have been certi ed to safely use the currently available 94-octane unleaded aviation fuel. To broaden the program’s success, Centennial Airport has allocated $380,000 to support this innovative aviation fuel price subsidy program, the news release states.
e grant from the aeronautical board comes almost a month after Gov. Jared Polis signed HB24-1235, which focuses on reducing the negative impacts of aviation on Colorado’s communities and smoothing the transition to a safe, eetwide 100 octane unleaded fuel, the news release states.
e bill provides that the lesser of $1.5 million or 10% of the annual Colorado Discretionary Aviation Grant (CDAG) Program be allocated to support Colorado public-use airport transition to unleaded aviation fuel, according to the news release.
As the only Colorado airport currently o ering unleaded aviation fuel, this year’s price subsidy funding grant to Centennial Airport will set the precedent for potential future funding of unleaded aviation fuel subsidy programs at other Colorado airports beginning with the next grant cycle in early 2025, the news release states.
Colorado Aeronautical Board (CAB) Chair Kent Holsinger said in the news release that “the CAB and the Division of Aeronautics are excited to help facilitate our industry’s transition to a safe, a ordable eetwide unleaded aviation fuel, as those fuels continue to be developed. We are committed to assisting airports with this transition through innovative programs like this, and future Division funding for unleaded fuel infrastructure,” he said.
“We are committed to protecting our clean air and keeping Coloradans healthy no matter where they live,” said Polis in the news release. “ is session we took action to keep Coloradans who live near airports
safe, and this grant will help Centennial Airport continue its work to transition to unleaded fuel, protecting our clean air and environment. I look forward to seeing more airports follow Centennial’s lead,” Polis said. “ ere is no safe level of lead, and HB24-1235 makes transitioning away from lead aviation fuel a top priority,” said Rep. Kyle Brown, who was a co-sponsor of the bill, in the news release.
“I applaud the Department of Transportation and the Division of Aeronautics for working to immediately implement this new law,” said Brown. “With this grant, Centennial Airport and Arapahoe County will continue to lead the way in transitioning towards unleaded fuel. I encourage airports across Colorado to follow Centennial’s lead in applying for this new funding.”
Centennial Airport Executive Director Mike Fronapfel said in the news release that “Centennial Airport is committed to being a global leader in sustainability and the transition to unleaded aviation fuel. We were the rst airport in Colorado to o er an FAA-approved alternate unleaded fuel to our customers. is happened by listening to our communities’ concerns, having a responsive airport board and elected leaders, and leveraging our strong partnerships with jetCenters of Colorado and based ight schools,” Fronapfel said.
“With the support of the Colorado Aeronautical Board, we can continue to facilitate the transition to unleaded aviation fuel not just at Centennial Airport, but across the state,” he said.

Colorado-born Parker Thomas Orms always envisioned himself growing up and tackling life head-on as an athlete on a sports field. So, how did he wind up being a hat shaper and owner of Hats By Parker Thomas? The answer is… fate! Parker’s father Glenn has been a hat shaper all his life following the tradition set by his own father. Parker’s grandpa Dewey started shaping hats 65 years ago in Texas —and did so until his death in 2022.
Parker inherited his passion for playing sports from his mom and her family. His mother Katherine lettered in softball at Northern Colorado in the 1970s.
Parker Thomas Orms attended Colorado University Boulder (2010-2013) on a football scholarship and played defensive back for the Colorado Buffaloes football team. He was an engaging presence on the field and a fan favorite. Parker was on the path to joining the NFL although football-related injuries (shoulder and hamstring injuries and a torn ACL for which he had to undergo surgery) likely ended that pursuit.
In 2015, Parker traveled to Milan to play semi-pro football as a Free Safety Punt Return Man for the Milano Rhinos, Italy’s professional league. But after playing his last football season in Europe, Parker Thomas came home to his family and the family traditions that are tightly woven into the fabric of his being. So, it wasn’t just a “hat” trick that led him to become a hat shaper and Parker’s success is proving to be far more rewarding than he could ever have imagined.
can shape any type hat he especially enjoys creating cowboy style hats, which are so very popular throughout Colorado.
“Most hats can be done in around 30 minutes and I will make your hat to order right there at the Mile High Hoedown,” said Parker who mentioned that his custom wool or beaver-blend hats range from $200 to $450. For additional fees he also offers cleaning, reshaping and branding services.
“I worked with my father and grandfather for eight years. Traveling around different rodeos and western-themed events, I shaped and designed cowboy and fedora hats,” said Parker who has been adding his own sense of style and creativity to traditional hats while shaping his own destiny in the process.

Then he opened Hats By Parker Thomas (https://www.hatsbyparkerthomas.com/) two years ago at 257 Fillmore St., Unit 110, in the Cherry Creek area of Denver where he meets with his clientele by appointment. Parker and his small team of hat craftsmen also shape and sell his hats nationwide at private home parties (with 5-25 people), weddings, corporate gatherings, and community events. Likewise, sports figures and celebrities like Reba McEntire are now a part of his overall customer base. Most of Parker’s bookings are
The store and private events keep Parker busy these days but he still enjoys opportunities to be part of community events like the June 29 Mile High Hoedown at the Stampede in Aurora.
“I am really looking forward to meeting people at the Mile High Hoedown,” said Parker who explained that he welcomes every opportunity to support Colorado’s lifestyles and interact with athletes/artists, and all others within its many communities.
“Each hat and design depends on the needs of the customer and the customizations they choose,” said Parker. He stated that although he

A bill creating the Black Coloradan Racial Equity Commission was signed into law June 4.
But supporters must raise $785,000 to prove there is strong community support for what the law directs History Colorado to do — assess and quantify the nancial impact of slavery, racism and discrimination on
Black Coloradans and make recommendations for corrective measures. e group is about $30,000 short of reaching that goal by a self-imposed deadline of July 1.
“ is is not us using public dollars for something other folks didn’t think we needed a study on,” said state Sen. James Coleman, a Black Denver Democrat and lead sponsor of the law. “We had a big fundraising e ort this year, and at this point,
we’re short about $30,000. I feel strongly we’ll be able to raise the rest of that money to begin implementing the bill.”
A similar bill, House Bill 1327, which passed in 2022, included $618,611 in state funding for History Colorado to investigate abuses at a federal Native American boarding school at Fort Lewis, in southern Colorado, and others like it statewide.
is year, the governor signed House Bill 1444, which provided $1 million to fund the Federal Indian Boarding School Research Program until the end of 2027.
State lawmakers did not ask for funding when they drafted the new racial equity study measure, Senate Bill 53, for Black Coloradans because “we knew it wouldn’t have passed,” said Sade Cooper, co-founder and chief executive o cer at CHIC Denver. e group is helping fundraise for Senate Bill 53, and helps families break free of intergenerational poverty and violence.
“We have similar studies that have passed,” Cooper said. “ ere was just one about the Indian boarding schools — that came with funding. But when it comes to really, truly, wanting to study this, in a partnership, we knew that if we went in there asking for money for something as contentious as this was, this wouldn’t have seen the light of day.
at’s sad and it says a lot about our political environment.”
Senate Bill 53 establishes a commission to direct History Colorado to conduct historical research across areas such as economic mobility, housing, education, health care and the criminal justice system. Racial equity studies can be used as tools to qualify and quantify past discrimination and develop ways to make corrections.
Slavery, systemic racism and discrimination continue to harm Black Coloradans, who still disproportionately struggle to gain wealth and access other basic necessities such as health care, higher education, nancial stability and housing.
Black people who were enslaved and unpaid for their work decades ago helped other Americans become wealthy and powerful and they’re now owed those same opportunities and resources, the preamble to Senate Bill 53 says. eir lost wages and
assets not only a ect them but also detract from Colorado’s labor force, tax base and the overall health of the state’s economy.
e results of the racial equity study will hopefully show that communities came together to do, Cooper said, “what’s right for all.”
We can now be the architects for the next generation,” she said. “ at is what I want to know, as a Black Coloradan — that we are taking care of those that I might never know.”
While lawmakers and other organizations are working to raise the money needed to begin the analysis required by Senate Bill 53, many Black Coloradans are commemorating Juneteenth, which marks the date when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865, to take control of the state and ensure enslaved Black people were freed — more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed on Jan. 1, 1863.
“We may not be shackled at the wrists and ankles literally, and working as indentured servants, but we are still unfortunately shackled by a lack of access to good education and a lack of access to the nancial wealth needed to buy a home,” Coleman said. “ ese are the kinds of things that still a ect our communities.”
Senate Bill 53 describes a 14-member commission, to be convened by Sept. 1, that will help shape a threeyear study that aims to determine how Black Coloradans have experienced and continue to experience racial discrimination because of harmful state systems, policies and practices.
e study group must include people with legal expertise in constitutional law and racial justice; a historian who has studied Black history, slavery and racism; a person with experience quantifying the economic impact of those harms on Black people; and other public servants who have worked with Black Coloradans. e members of the study committee will be appointed by the governor, the speaker of the House of Representatives and the president of the Senate.

With winter in the rearview, it’s time to ditch the snowboards and break out the wheels again. Coloradans are spoiled with over 70 skate parks in and around the Denver metro area, according to SpeakEasy Skate, a Colorado skate park directory run by local Damian Dixon. e directory boasts more than 200 in the state.
at many parks can be the best kind of overwhelming, whether you’re a seasoned skater or want to try skateboarding for the rst time (or biking, scootering, rollerblading and whatever else people do at skate parks, rules per park depending). But everyone has to start somewhere.
e choices seem endless with new parks opening every year, like the new Sloan’s Lake Pumptrack in Denver that opened in 2023. But here are ve to get you started around the Front Range.
Don Anema Memorial Skate Park
Location: Northglenn
Strength: Flow park
Lights: User-activated; the last activation can occur at 9:45 p.m.
Opened in 2011, the sea of desertred waves known as Don Anema Memorial Skate Park is one of the best ow parks (speci cally made for continuous riding without pushing) in the metro area. ere are multiple unusual features, like arches next to gaps, so skaters can jump the gaps or simply roll over them. A spiral roll-in bowl sits tucked into the corner for a quick whip-around, and several manual boxes, stairs, ledges and snake-like ramps allow for an even ow throughout. e larger bowl in the back of the park is the cherry on top of this skate park sundae, making Don Anema perfect for both practice and fun.
William McKinley Carson Park & Skate Park
Location: Greenwood Village
Strength: Two-for-one
Lights: No
Tucked away in William McKinley
Carson Park, the 15,000-square-foot arena is hidden by trees away from the main road, which obscures the fact that it’s actually two parks in one. e rst section is an intricate bowl system, with roll-ins from each side so it’s accessible to skaters of di erent levels. On the other side of the park, you have an Olympiclevel ow/street-style section. e slightly slanted run is connected by two quarter-pipes on either end, with multiple boxes, ramps and rails. Just get there before the sun goes down.
Arvada Skate Park
Location: Arvada
Strength: A bit of everything Lights: On until 10 p.m. It can be a bit di cult to decide what to do at this 40,000-squarefoot oasis for skaters. From the parking lot, turn left into the park and hit a valley of roll-in ramps, which lead to a at-trick area at the base of a small bowl section. On the north side of the park is a long, snake-like bowl system of small hills and roll-
overs. Head to the northeast corner for a skateable brick wall. Two circular platforms overlap each other for easy kick-turns near the entrance. e ‘bullpen’ of the skatepark has a half-bowl system, several stairs and ledges, and an unusual, large ramp on an island to ollie on, roll up and down and then hop back o .
Researchers on the committee may examine Black Coloradans’ ability to build nancial wealth by studying residential and commercial loan trends and tax policy, the law states.
e committee will also likely determine Black Coloradans’ ability to access higher education and workforce training programs and may study health disparities, police brutality and incarceration, among many other trends, to help estimate thenancial toll on African Americans in the state, the law says.
History Colorado must conduct at least two public engagement sessions in di erent parts of the state that allow community members to o er comments virtually or in-person about how state government has inuenced policies that have resulted in systemic racism and discriminations against Black Coloradans.
e dates for those community engagement sessions will likely be published in news media advisories and at leg.colorado.gov, when they are scheduled, Coleman said.
By September 2027, the study commission must submit a report outlining its ndings and recommendations to the governor, the Colorado General Assembly, the State Board of Education, the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, the Colorado Attorney General and the Health Equity Commission.
e study commission must also make the report publicly available on the Colorado General Assembly website.
Ulysses Skate Park
Location: Golden
Strength: Mountain and city views Lights: On until 10 p.m.
Nestled against the foothills in Golden, this ve-year-old, 27,000-square-foot park ows in a big loop and boasts the best views of any locale on this list. ere’s a attrick-designated area with a manual box (a at platform best used for practicing wheelie combinations) connected to the rest of the park by a tunnel with ‘GOLDEN’ carved in the roof, spelling the city’s name on
e commission must present the ndings in the report to the Colorado General Assembly and the governor.
After that, the commission must work with lawmakers and anyone else necessary to implement the recommendations outlined in the report, the law says.
If the study determines the nancial toll of racism and discrimination on Black Coloradans, the sum will be used to help inform future policy decisions, Coleman said.
“We will begin the rst year of the work upon receiving the funds — hopefully by July 1,” Coleman said.
“After funds are secured, we’d love to kick o the task force in August and begin doing preliminary work with History Colorado and the task force to talk about Black history in Colorado. en, the goal would be to continue looking at the data we have in the second year, as we’re moving into 2025.”
Job descriptions are being drafted
History Colorado expects to begin hiring researchers this summer.
“As the research outcomes of this project are quite expansive, History Colorado is already in the process of drafting job descriptions, so we can move forward with hiring a team of researchers who can accomplish this serious and signi cant project,” Luke Perkins, a spokesperson for History Colorado, wrote in an email to e Colorado Sun.
“ is team will consist of four Black history scholars as well as a project manager who will help coordinate the team’s e orts,” he wrote in the email. “It is History Colorado’s goal to have these postings up before the end of summer and to have this team

Colorado was not a state that enslaved Black people, but the state bene ted economically from labor done by them, Perkins wrote.
“Many early prospectors brought enslaved persons to the Colorado territory to do labor,” he wrote. “Colorado wasn’t considered a state when emancipation was proclaimed but enslaved people worked here prior to statehood and the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.”
e Ku Klux Klan also wielded great power and in uence in Denver and in state politics in the 1920s. Major Colorado towns, including Denver, Grand Junction, Pueblo, and Cañon City were hotbeds for Klan activity, and by 1925, the racist organization had in ltrated all levels of state government, controlling many members of the legislature and people in the state supreme court, and on some town councils, according to the new law.
Some of the most notable KKK members at that time included the mayor of Denver, the Denver police chief and the governor. e group’s presence in those higher levels of government has in uenced state policies and systems and created inequalities that still negatively affect Black Coloradans, Senate Bill 53 says.

Statistics consistently demonstrate the disparities that Black people still face show there’s no better time for states to pass similar legislation, Cooper said.
In 2020, the homeownership gap between Black and white Coloradans was 32%. Black people in Colorado are incarcerated at a rate that is more than seven times higher than white people in the state, according to the Prison Policy Initiative. Black people face a higher unemployment rate compared with any other racial group in the state. Black Coloradans also face many poor health outcomes at rates much higher than white Coloradans such as food insecurity, infant and maternal mortality, asthma, diabetes and HIV and AIDS. Despite the falling poverty rates, in 2021, Black Coloradans were still about twice as likely to live in poverty when compared with white Coloradans, according to a U.S. Census Bureau data analysis by the Colorado News Collaborative. e average Black American has a life expectancy of nearly ve years fewer than the average white American, according to e Kaiser Family Foundation.
“We collect this data but it hasn’t been organized,” Coleman said. “We will use this information to help determine what policies we can run in the future.

Brownhill, Esq., Nazarenus Stack & Wombacher LLC, 5105 DTC Parkway, Suite 200, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111. 2. Overview. Applicant seeks to adjudicate the Denver Basin Aquifers underlying approximately 500 acres owned by Applicant in Adams County, Colorado (“Property”), depicted on Exhibit A. This includes not-nontributary water in the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers and nontributary water in the Denver, Upper Arapahoe, Lower Arapahoe, and Laramie-Fox Hills Aquifers.

The Water Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this application pursuant to C.R.S. §§ 37-92-302(2) and 37-90-137(6). 4. Underground Water Rights Claimed. A. Wells. Wells that will withdraw the groundwater sought to be decreed by this Application have not yet been constructed, nor have applications for well permits been filed. Prior to constructing any additional wells to withdraw the subject groundwater, Applicant will apply to the State Engineer for a permit to construct that well, and the Applicant requests that the Court require, as a condition of the decree entered in this case, that well permits be issued upon application for any such wells in accordance with said decree.

3. Proposed Terms and Conditions for Deletion. ¶11.1.3 of the Decree requires that “WAS shall continue to replace all out-of-priority depletions caused by pre-deletion pumping of the well that occurred while the well was covered under the WAS plan or associated substitute supply plan.” White Sands Water Engineers Inc., (“WSWE”) has computed the total amount of the future depletions from past pumping from the Deleted Well while it was included in the Augmentation Plan. That amount is a total of 74.93 acre-feet as shown in the WSWE report dated January 25, 2024, and attached hereto as Exhibit 2. Applicant proposes to replace all the depletions shown in Exhibit 2 at any time such depletions are out of priority pursuant to the terms of the WAS Decree. Applicant requests the Court approve Exhibit 2, Attachment 1 which is a revised Exhibit 1 to the WAS Decree and which reflects the proposed deletion requested by this Application. 4. Distribution of Future Well Depletions. The WAS Decree requires WAS to distribute well depletions between river reaches. ¶22.2 of the WAS Decree states: “In the event of the addition or deletion of a well under this plan pursuant to ¶¶11.1.2

spacing rule as described in C.R.S. § 37-90-137(2)(b)(I)(B) for wells located on the Property. The estimated average annual amounts of withdrawal available from the subject aquifers as indicated below are based upon the Denver Basin Rules, 2 C.C.R. § 402-6. Applicant, based on the Colorado Division of Water Resources online aquifer determination tool, estimates the following annual amounts of nontributary and not-nontributary underlie the Property:
Water Supply Availability (af/yr)
Upper Arapahoe Lower Arapahoe LaramieFox Hills Totals
The water supply availability listed in the table above is based on a 100-year aquifer life in accordance with C.R.S. § 37-90-137(4)(b)(I). Applicant claims the right to withdraw more than the average annual amounts listed above pursuant to Rule 8A of the Statewide Rules, 2 C.C.R. § 402-7. F. Wellfield. Applicant requests that this Court determine that Applicant has the right to withdraw all of the legally available groundwater lying below the Property through wells which may be located anywhere on the Property and any additional wells which may be completed in the future as Applicant’s wellfields. As additional wells are constructed, well permit applications will be filed in accordance with C.R.S. § 37-90-137(10). G. Proposed Uses. Municipal, domestic, commercial, industrial, irrigation, livestock watering, fire protection, recharge, storage, recreation, exchange, augmentation, and replacement. Applicant also claims the right to reuse and successive uses of the water to extinction, and the right to lease, convey, or otherwise dispose of the water. H. Places of Use. Applicant seeks the right to use the legally available groundwater lying below the Property both on the Property and off the Property. Uses off the Property include, but are not limited to, other lands contiguous to the Property and owned by the Applicant. 5. Description of Plan for Augmentation. A. Groundwater to be Augmented. All withdrawals of not-nontributary Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers groundwater underlying the Property that do not occur through exempt wells, as requested herein. B. Water Rights to be Used for Augmentation: i. Not-nontributary groundwater from the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers underlying the Property as decreed herein; and ii. Nontributary groundwater from the Denver, Upper Arapahoe, Lower Arapahoe, and Laramie-Fox Hills Aquifers underlying the Property as decreed herein. C. Statement of Plan for Augmentation. During pumping, Applicant will replace depletions associated with the withdrawal of the not-nontributary groundwater decreed herein pursuant to C.R.S. § 37-90137(9)(c.5) (i.e., 4% of not-nontributary withdrawals from the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers where such withdrawals are farther than one mile from any point of contact be-

tween any natural stream and the aquifer, and actual depletions of not-nontributrary withdrawals from the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers where such withdrawals are closer than one mile from any point of contact between any natural stream and the aquifer). To ensure such replacements are made, Applicant will develop accounting to document replacements that accrue by (i) return flows from irrigation; and (ii) treated wastewater discharges. Further, direct releases of not-nontributary and nontributary groundwater may be used for augmentation. To meet post-pumping depletion requirements for not-nontributary withdrawals of groundwater underlying the Property, Applicant will reserve an amount of nontributary groundwater equal to the post-pumping depletions. D. Augmentation Plan Assumptions. Applicant will develop augmentation plan assumptions and measuring devices to account for replacement water. Consumptive use is expected to be approximately 10% for all groundwater pumped for indoor use to account for any treatment and inhouse loss. For irrigation, sprinkler irrigation is expected to be approximately 85% consumptive and drip irrigation is expected to be approximately 95% consumptive. Applicant reserves the right to use reclaimed water or gray water for irrigation and will separately measure and account for such uses. WHEREFORE, Applicant respectfully requests the Court enter a ruling that: (1) grants the determination of groundwater rights requested herein for the nontributary Denver, Upper Arapahoe, Lower Arapahoe, and Laramie-Fox Hills Aquifers and the not-nontributary Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers; (2) grants the plan for augmentation described in Paragraph 5; and (3) grants such other and further relief as the Court deems appropriate.

Grasmick, #35055, David L. Strait, #52659, Nicholas P. Espenan, #59333, Lawrence Custer Grasmick Jones & Donovan, LLP, brad@lcwaterlaw.com, dstrait@lcwaterlaw. com, nick@lcwaterlaw.com. APPLICATION TO ADD WELLS TO AUGMENTATION PLAN IN ADAMS, MORGAN AND WELD COUNTIES. 2. Summary of Application. WAS desires to adjudicate the addition of the Added Well described herein to its augmentation plan decreed in Water Court, Division No. 1, Case No. 03CW099 (the “WAS Decree”). The Added Well was previously included in the WAS Decree as a Member Well and was subsequently removed by Case No. 11CW106 in January 2013. The Subject Well has not been pumped since 2006 or earlier and there are no remaining net depletions due to prior pumping of the Added Well. 3. Structure to be Added and Augmented (“Added Well”): 3.1. Names and address of Well Owners: Scott Cline and Donna Jean Vonderlage, 1422 South Teller St. Lakewood, CO 80232. 3.2. Decree: W-4223.
A decree was entered in Water Court Division 1, on April 4, 1974, adjudicating the Added Well for irrigation of approximately 115 acres in the SW 1/4 of Section 31, Township 3 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. See Exhibit 1 hereto. 3.3. WAS Contract number 1344. Contract 1344 was approved April 16, 2024, irrigating 100 acres located on the SW 1/4 Section 31, Township 3 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M (the “The Vonderlage & Cline Property”). The General Location Map for the Vonderlage & Cline Property is attached as Exhibit 2. 3.4. Permit: 3.4.1. Permit 13155; WDID 0205616. 3.4.1.1. Location: SE1/4 of the SW1/4 of Section 31, Township 3 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado at a point 30 feet North and 21 feet West of the SW 1/4 of the SE 1/4 Corner. 3.4.1.2. Appropriation Date: July 6, 1957. 3.4.1.3. Decreed Amount: 2.30 cfs. 4. Proposed Terms and Conditions. 4.1. The terms and conditions for the Added Well will be the same as for the other Covered Wells in the WAS Decree. The consumptive use factor will be 60% for flood irrigated acres and 80% for sprinkler irrigated acres. The method for determining future well depletions will be those set out in the WAS Decree at ¶¶ 16-19. The Added Well will be subject to all the terms and conditions for operation as for other Covered Wells in the WAS Decree. 4.2. Net Stream Depletions: Depletions resulting from the consumptive use of groundwater and accretions resulting from deep percolation of groundwater applied for irrigation will be lagged back to the South Platte River using the Glover alluvial aquifer method and the following parameters: 4.2.1. WDID 0205616. Harmonic Mean Transmissivity (Gal-
lons/day/foot) T = 90,000. Specific Yield = 0.2. Total distance of alluvial aquifer boundary from river W = 7,483 feet. Distance of Well from river X = 3,593 feet. See WSWE Report, Exhibit 3. 5. Distribution of Future Well Depletions. The WAS Decree requires WAS to distribute well depletions between river reaches. ¶22.2 of the WAS Decree states: “In the event of the addition or deletion of a well under this plan pursuant to ¶¶ 11.1.2 and 11.1.3, the Court shall approve and order such adjustments to the percentages set forth in ¶¶ 22.2.1, 22.2.2, and 22.2.4 as necessary to ensure that depletions continue to be replaced at locations necessary to prevent injury.” The distribution of well depletions has been amended by the decrees entered subsequent to the WAS Decree. The addition of the Added Well to the WAS Decree will not change the total volume of replacement allocations for WAS Member Wells. As previously determined in Case No. 03CW099, pumping of the Added Well will result in depletions to the South Platte River in WAS Administrative Reach F3. WAS will replace out-of-priority depletions to the South Platte River from the sources listed in Attachment 3 within the WSWE Report attached hereto as Exhibit 3. Adding the Added Well does not adjust the distribution of well depletions in Reach F. The decreed site-specific aquifer parameters within in (Table 2-1) of Exhibit 3 will be used to calculate the delayed timing of depletions from pumping. Upon entry of a decree, the WAS projection will be amended to include the depletions attributable to the Added Well. This document consists of 4 pages.
THE WATER RIGHTS CLAIMED BY THESE APPLICATIONS MAY AFFECT IN PRIORITY ANY WATER RIGHTS CLAIMED OR HERETOFORE ADJUDICATED WITHIN THIS DIVISION AND OWNERS OF AFFECTED RIGHTS MUST APPEAR TO OBJECT WITHIN THE TIME PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR BE FOREVER BARRED.

Distance of Well from river X = 8,250 feet. See Exhibit 3. 5. Distribution of Future Well Depletions.

A stag elk and lumbering bear will also house butterflies, bees and small birds
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Two towering steel sculptures that also act as habitats for tiny pollinators will soon be introduced to ornton’s public park inventory.
e two art pieces, the creation of
two associated pollinator gardens, and other expenses cost $100,000.
e sculptures will be installed Eastlake #2 Open Space, E. 124th Ave., and Grange Hall Creek Park, E. 110th Avenue and Dahlia Drive, Erica Schmitt, ornton’s Public Art Coordinator, told the city council this week.
ose two parks were picked because they lack art pieces, Schmitt said.
“We are looking forward to adding something like this to those two locations,” she said.
e artist – North Carolina’s Aaron
Artist J. Aaron Alderman has been selected to include two pollinator friendly sculptures for Thornton parks. Each will contain places for bees, bugs, birds and other pollinators. A version of the stag shown in this hand drawing will be created specifically for Eastlake open space. COURTESY PHOTO
J. Alderman – will create one sculpture that is a standing stag with small pollinator houses living at the tips of its antlers. e second sculpture is a lumbering bear with pollinator houses emerging from its back.
“ e ‘little villages’ of pollinator habitats on the larger mammals are a nod to the interconnectedness of pollinators and the rest of the ecosystem,” states a sta report to the city council.
Pollinators include birds, bats, butter ies, moths, ies, beetles, wasps, small mammals, and most
importantly, bees. ey visit owers to drink nectar or feed o of pollen and transport pollen grains as they move from spot to spot, according to Pollinator.org.
Without pollinators, the human race and all of Earth’s terrestrial ecosystems would die. Of the 1,400 crop plants grown around the world – those that produce all of our food and plant-based industrial products — almost 80% require pollination by animals, according to the United States Department of Agriculture.
For 15 years Golden Real Estate has been almost the only brokerage which does live-action video tours of its listings. Other brokerages make use of the “virtual tour” field in the MLS for videos that are nothing more than slideshows with music or Matterport tours which are interactive but miss the vital ingredient of a live action video tour — narration such as you’d get if you were walking through the house with the listing agent.
points of each room. To get a feel for this kind of video tour, go online to www.GRElistings.com and click on any one of our listings to watch the narrated video tour.
Our video tours are designed to simulate a live showing. As such, the video starts on the street, with me (or a broker associate) introducing the listing and perhaps showing the street scene. “Now let’s go inside and check out this home.”
Cut to the foyer and a walk through of the home, speaking as we go. “Notice the hardwood floors…. That’s a woodburning fireplace…. See the skylight in the vaulted ceiling…. These are Corian countertops…. The high efficiency washer and dryer are included…. Notice the mountain view out the kitchen window….” You get the idea.
No slideshow with music can compete with a narrated walk-through with the listing agent pointing out the selling
What makes this the right time for listing agents from other brokerages begin producing narrated video tours is the NAR settlement, which is likely to reduce the number of in-person showings at listed properties. If every listing had a narrated video tour, the number of showings would be reduced, because only those who watched the video tour and knew this listing might be a contender for them would go to the trouble of calling the listing agent or engaging a buyer agent to show them the listing.
By the way, narrated video tours are essential for attracting out-of-town buyers. More than once, an out-of-town buyer has gone under contract for one of our listings based solely on the narrated video tour, because they feel as if they have toured the home. The buyers still have the opportunity to terminate when they fly in for the inspection. None of those buyers terminated, however.
So, in this video age, what is keeping the majority — the vast majority — of
The primary outcome of the muchdiscussed NAR settlement announced in March is that buyers will now have to compensate agents representing them in the purchase of homes.
That change is scheduled to take effect on August 17th, so it makes sense that home buyers who have been “on the fence” are getting serious now about buying a home while they can still count on the seller, not them, paying their agent’s commission.
It doesn’t matter that their fear is unfounded. I fully expect sellers to keep offering to pay a “co-op” commission to the agents who bring them a buyer, even though that commission cannot be mentioned anywhere on the MLS.
Just this month, REcolorado, the Denver MLS, quietly introduced a new field for all listings. It’s a field to list another website, such as the websites we already create for every listing, and that website is allowed to mention the co-op commission for buyer agents since it does not derive its data from the MLS. If you want to see what that looks like, simply go to the website for my latest listing, www.ArvadaHome.info There on the home page of the website you will see the 2.8% co-op commission my seller is offering to buyer agents
under the headline, “Buyer Agent Commission Details.”
Nevertheless, the fear is very real among buyers that they will have to pony some serious money on top of their purchase price and loan expenses to pay for professional representation. Another development in this regard is the introduction of new mobile software called LivePad, which facilitates the process of showing homes to buyers when the showing agent doesn’t yet have a signed compensation agreement. In addition to some fine features for setting up a tour of listings, the tabletbased software allows the showing agent to create that requisite agreement on the tablet where the buyer can sign it digitally before entering the first listing. If the compensation agreement is for just that one day, the buyer can avoid paying the specified fee to their showing agent by waiting until the next day to make an offer under a new agreement. There may also be a surge in sellers putting their homes on the market prior to the August 17 deadline. Broker associate Chuck Brown had a seller get “off the fence” this month and sell his home, because he feared reduced buyer interest once buyers face the prospect of paying for their own agents.
listing agents from creating narrated video tours of their listings? I can only speculate, but here is my speculation. Listing agents like to farm out as many tasks as they can. They hire photographers (as we do) to shoot magazine quality photographs of their listings. Those vendors offer “videos” of the interior and drone videos of the exterior, and the listing agents think that’s sufficient. But there’s no narration of those videos, because the videographer would not know what to say. He only knows how to press “record” and “stop.”
The Matterport interactive tours are
very popular, and we include those on our listings too, but only because they are included in the enhanced package which we purchase that includes floor plans, which are done by the Matterport software. The Matterport tours are cool because they are shot with 360-degree lenses, allowing the viewer to rotate the view and even look up at the ceiling, then click on the next marker to go from room to room. But, again, no narration about what you are seeing. To call it a “video” is deceptive. It’s just a link that is inserted in one of the three “virtual tour” fields.
Reader Suggests the Pooling of Insured Homes as a Way to Reduce the Risks Causing Higher Insurance Premiums
One reader, Andrew Burt, recently responded to my request for creative solutions to the home insurance crisis caused primarily by the multiple natural and man-made disasters resulting in profit-crushing insurance claims.
His suggestion: the pooling of multiple homes so that the loss sustained by any one home is spread across the pool.
My first reaction was that this is how insurance works already. Insurance companies have thousands or millions of insured properties in the expectation that only a small percentage will file catastrophic claims.
Nevertheless, here is Andrew’s proposal, which he supported with some serious mathematical formulae not for publication in this lay publication.
“If I'm in a pool with, say, nine other properties, and one of them gets damaged, the insurer pays a claim but then distributes the cost of that claim over all 10 properties in next year's premium calculation — instead of raising just mine to cover all of it. (Or I cover all of it over an amortized number of years, which is what they seem to do rather than lumping their cost all into year one. It doesn't change the math of the idea. Spread the new premium costs over multiple people instead of just me.)”
Andrew compared his proposal to the Affordable Care Act, which insures everyone without regard to pre-existing
conditions, but requires everyone to be insured. (Wildfire risk is a “pre-existing condition.”) He suggested that widely separated properties within the state could be pooled to further spread the risk of multiple claims within the pool.
Mike Nelson was one of six featured speakers at the annual fundraiser for New Energy Colorado, held on June 20th at The Retreat at Solterra in Lakewood.
Viewers of Mike’s weather forecasts on Channel 7 know that he is passionate about climate change. In addition to addressing the topic, he gave away free copies of his 2020 booklet, “The World’s Littlest Book on Climate: 10 Facts in 10 Minutes About CO2.”
Also speaking at the well-attended event was U.S. Congresswoman Brittany Pettersen, State Sen. Lisa Cutter, Jeffco Commissioner Andy Kerr, State Rep. Brianna Titone, and Will Toor, director of the Colorado Energy Office. New Energy Colorado is best known for its annual Metro Denver Green Homes Tour on the first Saturday in October.

An environmental group that has opposed development projects on the Poudre River says it will sue to block Larimer County from allowing the river to feed into the longplanned City of ornton pipeline.
Save e Poudre says that the Larimer County Commissioners, who approved the pipeline proposal in May, should have required that ornton send the water down the Poudre River in Fort Collins instead of putting it in a pipeline. By not doing so, the commissioners have violated multiple sections of the county’s land use code, according to a Save e Poudre news release.
“It’s insane to divert the water out of the Poudre and put that water in a pipeline that crosses the river 12 miles downstream,” said Gary Wockner, who directs Save e Poudre, in the news release. “Using the river as the conveyance would increase the health of the river in Fort Collins, the riparian corridor along the river, and the recreational opportunity at the new Whitewater Park in downtown.”
City of ornton spokesman Todd Barnes declined to comment on the suit, which will be led in Larimer County District Court. “We don’t comment on potential litigation,” Barnes said.
e nal 10-mile section of the pipeline that will spur ornton’s growth for the next several years gained unanimous approval from the Larimer Commissioners in May. e granting of the 1041 permit for the pipeline project came after two lengthy public hearings along with
meetings with Larimer residents to ease fears about the impacts of the pipeline, say city o cials.
Most of the 70-mile pipeline will run through Weld and Adams counties before ending south of ornton.
Larimer County residents and environmentalists have long worried the pipeline would damage and drain the Poudre River. ornton bought the water rights to the river in 1986 and city o cials say the water they are conveying is already being diverted at a point at the Larimer County canal.
No additional diversions will be made once the pipeline is built, ofcials say.
ornton o cials say they have consistently reached out to critics of the pipeline to allay their fears about the project.
“Our approach has always been to not just meet but exceed regulatory and community outreach requirements, ensuring that our plans align with the broader goals of Larimer County and serve as a beacon for how communities can unite over signi cant projects, including water projects,” ornton Interim City Manager Brett Henry said in a prepared statement in May.
After talks with Larimer residents and county o cials, ornton produced a new route that is signicantly di erent than what was proposed in 2018 when Larimer County denied the plan, according to a city of ornton webpage.
e new alignment is 16.6 miles shorter than the previous one and includes a pump station located on private property owned by the Water Supply and Storage Company.
e location is just two miles north of the site proposed in 2018, according to the city.
Four smaller pollinator habitat public art projects were installed in four city locations in 2021: Grandview Pond Ponds Open Space, Heritage Trail Park, Park Village Park, and
is new location is located further away from residential development and recognizes the sentiment expressed by Larimer County residents for the pump station to be located on private, non-residential property, the city said.
e county’s approval of the 1041 permit application comes with 83 conditions. ey include requiring ornton to retain a soil scientist, agronomist or agricultural engineer to help property owners impacted by the construction to protect or reestablish soil health.
orton can also review the alignment of the pipeline by 100 feet on either side if it doesn’t cross a property line, is approved by the property owner, and meets the overall criteria, o cials say.
State law cited
Huron Green Park, according to the sta report. e Huron Green pieces were relocated to the ornton Arts and Culture annex garden location at 9211 Dorothy Boulevard after vandals damaged three butter y totem sculptures, according to the city sta report.
Alderman’s art pieces are scheduled to be installed by Dec. 31, Schmitt said.
Save e Poudre points out in its legal comment letter that the Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP) changed state law to speci cally allow using the Fort Collins Poudre River corridor as the conveyance for about 13,500 acre-feet of its water.
But the Larimer County Commissioners failed to require ornton to do the same thing for almost the same amount of ornton’s water (14,000 acre-feet), according to the Save e Poudre news release.
“If NISP can do it voluntarily, ornton must do it too,” said Wockner. “ e legal and policy precedent set by NISP must be applied to ornton, and we will seek court intervention to enforce it.”
During the 10-year battle over the ornton pipeline, and throughout the recent hearings in Larimer County, nearly every single public comment from people of Larimer County — over a thousand in the 10year process, and at least a hundred in the recent hearings — supported using the river as the conveyance for
Funding for the two sculptures comes through the Scienti c and Cultural Facilities District and Adams County Open Space Sales Tax proceeds, the sta report states.
City Council members this week praised the two pieces saying they are whimsical while also carrying a message about the importance of pollinators to Colorado’s environment.
water, Wockner said in the news release.
“ is decision not only violates the land use code, it violates the will of the people,” said Wockner. “Save e Poudre will stand up for the people of Larimer County and seek a better outcome for the Poudre River and the community.”
Save e Poudre is also involved in two lawsuits against the Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP) — in the state court of appeals and in federal district court, both in Denver. In part, Save the Poudre is arguing that NISP should use the river as the conveyance for all 40,000-acre feet of its water, the news release states.
“ e NISP battle has been playing out for 20 years and may continue for several more. NISP also needs a 1041 permit to run a pipeline across City of Fort Collins Natural Areas, a permit process that hasn’t begun yet,” it reads.
“I am excited to see this,” Mayor Jan Kulmann said.
Council members also asked why a Colorado artist was not picked for the project. Schmitt said that while 15 Colorado-based artists were looked at, Alderman was the clear choice. Still, ornton is “trying to connect more and more with Colorado artists,” Schmitt said.

e two candidates vying in the Democratic primary for Colorado’s Senate District 19 have each gathered several endorsements from prominent members of their own party.
For Westminster Councilor Obi Ezeadi they include Jade Kelly, presidents of CWA Local 7799, Vicky Lopez, community activist, and two
Adams County Commissioners –Eva Henry and Emma Pinter.
Ezeadi’s opponent - current State Rep. Lindsey Daugherty - has collected endorsements from Congress-
man Joe Neguse, former Congressman Ed Perlmutter and Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser.
Daugherty, however, can now list Gov. Jared Polis on her list of prominent backers after the state’s top Democrat gave her his endorsement last week.
Daugherty said this week that she sometimes di ered with Polis on some policy issues. But his endorsement shows that he respects her ability to work with people even though she disagreed with their positions.
“I think I work well with the governor’s o ce, and even though we were at odds sometimes I aways try
to listen to someone else’s perspective,” said Daugherty. “And I think he appreciates that.”
Ezeadi said in an email statement that he supported for Polis for governor. But Ezeadi was dismayed that Polis recently sided with big corporations by vetoing three key bills that were designed to protect working families: HB24-1307 (HVAC improvements for PK -12 schools), HB24-1008 (prevented wage theft), and HB24-1260 (protection from listening to political, religious, or anti-union propaganda from your employer).

While the county Environmental Health Team monitors for mosquitoborne illnesses, there are steps you can take right now to keep you and your loved ones safe. ose include ensuring pet dishes are removed from patios that can hold water, making sure roof gutters are cleaned and inspected yearly, removing debris piles from outdoor areas— including buckets, barrels, children’s toys, and tire swings— and removing or changing water in birdbaths frequently.
Homeowners should also maintain swimming pools and spas with proper ltration and chlorination levels, limit watering lawn and plants to avoid water pooling and limit your time outdoors during dusk and dawn to avoid mosquitoes. If you stay outdoors during this time, wear long-sleeved shirts and pants and use mosquito repellents that contain a high percentage of DEET.

Platte Valley grows its SANE program
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Victims of domestic abuse or sexual assault in Adams County should not have to wait days and face travel to another hospital to get a forensic exam, Intermountain Health Platte Valley Hospital Registered Nurse April Vialpando said.
“ ey have gone through enough,” said Vialpando, coordinator for the Brighton hospital’s Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) program.
SANE specialists o er customized services for sexual assault and domestic violence victims and gather evidence against their alleged assailants.
“When a patient comes in here it’s our job to believe them and make them feel heard,” Vialpando said. “We want to empower them to move forward,” Vialpando added.
She said the hospital now has even more tools to aid victims through an expansion of the SANE program af-
Worrying about your uneven or cracked concrete can make owning a home very stressful. By investing in concrete repair, you can fix your driveway, walkways, patio, and more in one easy lift.
ter Adams County awarded Platte Valley a $438,000 grant to grow its forensic exam e orts.
Assault victims get treatment for physical injuries, but a forensic exam calls for the gathering of evidence by a specialized caregiver from a suspected assault victim, Vialpando said. e exam includes a detailed history of the assault, a swab for a DNA sample, photographs of any injury, possibly prescribing medication for the victim and working up a safe discharge plan for them, she said.
Sometimes hospitals don’t have a trained clinician available, and it could take hours for one to arrive, Vialpando said.
Victims are often sent to a hospital in Denver, Boulder or Aurora for the exam. e wait can be too long for some patients, and they simply skip the exam altogether, she said.
“Some patients simply cannot wait,” said Andrea Moore, emergency department director for Platte Valley Hospital. “ ey have gone through enough already.”
Nurses who become quali ed forensic examiners go through extensive on-the-ground training. eir expertise is often called upon by
police and prosecutors when they pursue cases against alleged assailants. ey also can be called expert witnesses in court, Vialpando said.
Platte Valley introduced its SANE program in January. e e ort includes six specially trained nurses, dedicated equipment, and rooms designed for the care of sexual assault victims, according to county o cials.
“By expanding the SANE program, we are ensuring that victims of these horri c crimes receive the care and support they need without unnecessary delays or obstacles,” said Adams County Commissioner and Chair Emma Pinter in a news release. “ is grant is a signi cant step in our commitment to improving public health and safety in our community.”
e program opened Vialpando’s eyes about the amount of violence against women. Since the program began, they have treated 55 patients by the end of May, she said. Only about a quarter stem from sexual assault with the rest stemming from domestic abuse.
“It’s more prevalent than anyone wants to think about,” Vialpando said. “It’s even more important that we help the victims when they come her looking for help.”
The contentious new water treatment plant - or “Drinking Water Facility” as the city sta likes to call it - has been quietly moving ahead.
I say contentious because some current council members continue to doubt or be suspect of facts and gures quoted by sta regarding the plant. In particular, Council member Kathrine Ireland was caustic and challenging. Was this from her close relationship and co-council candidate with former Councilmember Bruce Baker?
At a recent city council brie ng, sta informed the council that the 14.7 million gallon per day plant’s design was 60% complete, the raw water line design was 90% complete and the nished water and sanitary sewer design documents were 30% done. As you can guess, the magnitude and complexity of a water treatment plant design and speci cations encompass a mountain of detail and is time consuming.
With the design phase headed toward completion, it allows the opportunity to do a thorough cost estimate. is is essential in order to size the nancing of the construction work. Based on work done to date, sta is recommending a plan which calls for $190 million in Utility Enterprise Revenue Bonds and $50 million in cash reserves.
Why does Community Reach need so much?
Council gave the Community Reach organizations, at the June 10, 2024 meeting, all but free rent in City owned buildings. I am sure that most other organizations in Westminster would like to get free rent for their operations.
By the way, utility revenue bonds do not require a vote of the people per the Westminster City Charter - in case you were wondering. A total of $52 million has been spent thus far on the project consisting of $32 million for the land condemned and $20 million for consultant/engineering fees. e total projected cost is a whopping $292 million.
Sta analyzed 20, 30 and 40 year bond redemption scenarios. ey are recommending the 30-year option.
A major factor in deciding the length of paying o the debt ties back to an annual water rate increase of no more than 4.5%. A 20-year bond issue would require a 7.5% annual rate increase; a 30-year redemption would be 4.5% and the 40-year scenario would fall to 2.5%.
Total interest cost on the 20-year approach would be an estimated $84.8 million; 30-year at $149.5 million and $222.7 million for the 40year plan.
So, you can see sta ’s thinking is balancing interest costs with the necessary annual water rate to cover the annual debt cost. While I do not recall a city debt issuance of any type being spread over 30-years, I can appreciate the “pluses and minuses” to go with the 30-year plan.
It’s good to re ect back on the previous plan for a new water treatment plant under the previous city council’s and administration’s approach. You may recall the “Water 2025” project. eir plan called for a 30 million gallon per day plant. Can you imagine today’s cost if building the facility and appurtenances at such a capacity? Extrapolating from the $292 million cost for a 14.7 MGD plant, an estimated cost to construct a 30 million gallon per day plant would be in the neighborhood of $500,000,000. at is one-half billion (with a B) dollars.
Can you imagine the annual water rate which would be required to pay that annual principal and interest pay? While $292 million is an outlandish amount of money in itself for any city to pay, it is far better than having to pay approximately one half billion dollars!
What were then-City Manager Don Tripp and Mayors Herb Atchison and Anita Seitz and City Council thinking?
Student enrollment in some public school districts is trending downward. It’s a fact. A lower birth rate, the lack of a ordability in housing and bouncing back from COVID-19 are given as reasons for this trend.
Let’s start by looking at Denver Public Schools (DPS). ey are projecting a drop in enrollment by 6,338 students within the next ve years. DPS did see a one year “bump” in enrollment in the last school year due to 4,700 migrant students lling schools in their district.
Adams 12 Schools have seen a steady ve-year downward trend in their student count. Starting with the 2019-20 school year, their head count was 38,707. Ensuing years were 20202021 at 36,654, 2021-2022 at 36,078, 2022-2023 down to 35,747 and the most recent year at 34,998 students. at represents a 9.5% decline in enrollment for the ve-year period. For Westminster Public Schools (WPS) there is even a more severe drop in enrollment for the same period of time. Starting with 2019-2020, the total enrollment was 9,090. Subsequent years were 2020-2021 at 8,373, 2021-2022 at 8,320, 2022-2023 at 8,001 and this past school year at 7,631.
Councilor Ireland brought to Council’s attention the fact the Community Reach organizations are very successful and pro table. According the required IRS Form 990 lings the organizations have over $46 million dollars of assets (Form 990, Tax year 2021, Part 1 line 22) and several business locations. How a non-pro t attains such wealth I do not know.
is organization is so successful that they paid their leader, Richard Doucet, over $476,000 in compensation in 2021. Furthermore, Mr. Doucet has been paid nearly $400,000 or more for the last several years (IRS Form 990 lings).
Unfortunately, no other member of Council addressed Ms Ireland’s information. Why? Were they embarrassed to be caught giving away city money to their rich “friends”?
is lease was to be heard again by Council on June 24. ere is time for Council to do the right thing and be fair to all the other valuable, decent, worthy businesses in Westminster. Council could and should charge a fair rent for use of city property.

e Westminster City Council is under pressure to back out of its commitments to the Rocky Mountain Greenway connections to the Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge.
e Greenway will eventually link Denver with Rocky Mountain National Park. A “study session” of the City Council, scheduled for July 15 at 6 p.m. in the Westminster City Hall, already has a panel of six antinuclear, anti-refuge spokesmen.
e groups they represent wish not only to block completion of the Greenway but also to close the Rocky Flats National Wildlife Refuge to the public.
e session agenda, when available, will be at https://www.westminsterco.gov/agendas.
You can express your support for the Greenway and the science behind refuge safety. More at https:// rocky atsneighbors.org/events/ list/, which includes links to a review of what the anti-nuclear people will probably claim, rebuttal (quite easy), and some of the actual science about refuge safety.

WPS has experienced a 16% drop in students in the last ve years. is does not take into account at least 2,500- 3,000 students who live within WPS boundaries, but choose to attend a di erent school district. e loss of student head count has a consequence to it both nancially and operationally. e state government provides the signi cant amount of funding to each district using a per student head count from October each year. With fewer students, the amount provided historically has been reduced.
Under the new school nance law, the nancial need of each district plays a larger factor in the amount paid. Besides less state funding, there are operational considerations such as school building closures and reduction of needed teachers.
A good question for the public to ask their school board and superintendent is “what speci cally are you doing to turn this trend around? Also, what is your plan to “stop the scal bleeding” for the next ve years?
Colorado Aerotropolis promoted e June 17 Denver Post article headline stated “E orts to build `airport city’ underway.” At rst glance, you might think this concept or effort is brand new. However, it has been around since 2016 when Denver, DIA, Adams County and some municipalities came together to work closer together in the economic and marketing e ort to attract new development around Denver International Airport.
What exactly is an aerotropolis? According to Colorado Aerotropolis, it is “a hub of opportunities for high quality employers that will create jobs, invest in the community and strengthen the economy.” Initial visioning, mapping of the study area and identifying the governmental “players” were accomplished after the 2016 intergovernmental agreement was inked.
Early concepts touched on a regional government or some type of governance structure, but nothing has come forward in the intervening eight years. e term “aerotropolis” was introduced to the Denver metro public back in Denver Mayor Michael Hancock’s tenure, but it really didn’t take o . is latest promo seems to be an attempt to re-light the re to create
visibility and promote heavy development around DIA.
DIA is Colorado’s biggest economic engine
According to a 2023 study, DIA’s total economic contribution was approximately $36.4 billion. e airport property itself is 53 square miles in land area with Denver and Aurora best positioned to gain economically from additional development.
In particular, the governmental group sees such sectors as agriculture, biomedical, quantum computing, energy, advanced manufacturing and transportation as being prime to locate within the Aerotropolis boundaries. ere are 16,000 acres available for development within the focus area.
e group points out some key factors which should gain the attention of prospective companies interested in moving to the area.
Colorado is the third best educated state in the country, #3 best state economy in the US and #3 most connected airport in the country. DIA o ers 28 non-stop international destinations.
Making the Aerotropolis stronger
Colorado Aerotropolis has a lot of positive things going for it as listed above. Currently, it functions as a marketing and promoter for the DIA development area.
Each city or county functions separately when it comes to infrastructure commitments with new development activity and land use decisions. Perhaps, some type of “overlay” via an intergovernmental agreement could provide a shared approach on infrastructure nancing and collaborative land use. Having a shared master development plan would also be a step in the right direction.
e more the individual entities in the Aerotropolis could merge into a single cohesive unit, the more e ective it would be. After all, Colorado Aerotropolis is competing with approximately 16 other airport-focused development entities such as Atlanta with its Harts eld-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
e concept of cooperating together to promote and market the subject area was a good rst step eight years ago, but it is time to take the next step forward.

Whether it’s dipping your toes in at the local pool or swimming at an open lake, a good way to beat the heat is getting in the water, and there are many water activities to choose from in the Denver metro area.
For some, summertime is a time to relax, but for others, it’s a time to be adventurous and create memories with family.
Here is a guide to some of the best places to swim in the metro area as well as enjoy fresh water.
The Splash at Fossil Trace
Monday-Sunday, Pool Hours: 10 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Monday-Sunday
Enjoy the twists and turns of the water slides at e Splash Aquatic Park while taking in the green scenery of the Front Range.
“It de nitely has the more foothills-feel as opposed to the urban feel of Elitches or Water World,” said Betsy Sweet, aquatic supervisor for the city. “It’s less crowded.”
Across the park, guests have views of Lookout Mountain and Mount Zion, which is the mountain decorated with the “M” for the Colorado School of Mines.
As part of Golden’s Parks and Recreation Department, e

Splash goes beyond the standard recreational swimming pool. From those learning how to walk to the community’s seniors, the waterpark has amenities for all ages and swimming abilities.
“Not only is it fun for kids, but the adults in the world have fun as well,” Sweet said.
Popular among children is the leisure beach-entry pool that includes a large play structure, small water slides, spray fountains and “Tipper,” the 500-gallon dump bucket. But for the little ones who want to be in the water but aren’t con dent in swimming just yet, there is a gentle splash pad.
One of the most popular attractions for those 48 inches and taller are the two water slides, the green
body slide and the blue tube slide. If those under the height requirement want to ride the blue slide, they must ride with an adult. e park also has a 25-meter lap pool with eight lanes for the more experienced swimmers as well as an open swim area and diving boards.
With interactive structures around the park, Sweet said e Splash is home to the biggest sandbox in Je erson County, which also has dinosaur fossils to dig up.
Admission fees for Golden residents range from $8-11 based on age, $9-12 for Je erson County residents and $10-13 for non-residents.
Paradice Island Pool
5951 Monaco St., Commerce City, Colorado 80022 | 303-289-3769 | c3gov.com/paradice | facebook.com/ paradiceisland/ | Open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. daily through Aug.11
Commerce City is a fast-growing and diverse community with over 1,000 businesses, a golf course and soccer complex, 25 miles of trials and a swimming pool.
Opened in 2015 on the east end of Pioneer Park, Paradice Island Pool was a rst-of-its-kind in Commerce City.
e park ranges from a toddler pool with interactive water features for young ones to a leisure pool to a lap pool for the more advanced swimmers. Guests can have a relaxing time on the lazy river or feel the adrenaline when going down one of three slides.
Other non-water features at the park include play structures, volleyball, shaded areas and cabanas for rent. It’s a place to gather with friends and family. Coolers, chairs, pop-up tents, party decorations and food are allowed, but not alcohol and glass.
Admission rates for residents with a valid city recreation play pass range from free to $4 based on age. For nonresidents who don’t have a play pass, the fee ranges from free to $10.
Adventure West
423 10th St. (rear), Golden, Colorado 80401 | 720-722-1645 | adventurewestco@gmail.com|adventurewestco. com/
2920 Brewery Lane, Littleton, Colorado, 80120
One of the most popular and thrilling activities in the City of Golden is Whitewater River Tubing on Clear Creek. Daily tube rentals are open every day and include commercialgrade river tubes with complimentary life jackets and helmets. Shoes, not ip- ops, are required.
Adventure West owner Beth Battilla said when the Golden location rst opens for the season, it’s for adults and strong swimmers only. It is then gradually opened to others as the ow rate drops.
“Golden is best for most people mid-to-late July onwards,” Battilla said. “Unless you are really comfortable swimming in swift water, then by all means, come earlier.”
Although online reservations aren’t required at this location, reservations guarantee a tube and speed up the check-in process. Battilla added that reservations are highly recommended on weekends as tubes tend to sell out.
ose under the age of 17 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
While the location in Golden is an “exciting” oat, Adventure West’s location in Littleton is more of a “mellow” and “picturesque” oat, and online reservations are required.
Here, guests can drift along the South Platte River for upwards of two hours and take in the sights of the Carson Nature Center.
Children must be ve years of age or older and parking is available at Breckenridge Brewery.
“( ey) are out tted with a commercial grade river tube, life jacket, given our tubing tips and a safety talk,” Battilla said.
Cherry Creek and Chatfield Reservoirs
4201 South Parker Road, Aurora, Colorado 80014 | 303.690.1166 | cpw. state.co.us
11500 N. Roxborough Park Road, Littleton, Colorado 80125 | 303.791.7275 | cpw.state.co.us
From swimming to jet skiing, local reservoirs o er a variety of water activities and programs.
Colorado is known for its mountain range, but there are sandy beaches families and friends can visit as well.
Cherry Creek Reservoir has a ropedo swimming area for people to cool o . It’s important to note that Colorado State Park swim beaches don’t have lifeguards on duty, so children must be supervised by an adult at all times.
In addition to sailboarding and boating, the reservoir also o ers a youth rowing program called Mile High Rowing Club and an adaptive sailing program called Community Sailing of Colorado.
Another sandy beach sits on the west side of the Chat eld Reservoir and is open from sunrise to sunset through Sept. 2. e beach is complete with showers, restrooms and picnic areas with small grills.
e reservoir is divided into multiple zones. One is the main body of the reservoir, known as the “Power Zone” and is for general boating, water skiing and sailing and moves in a counterclockwise direction.
ere are two large “No Wake
Zones” at the southwest and southeast ends of the reservoir, which are more ideal for shing and canoeing. Paddle Boarding is allowed in all bodies of water except for the swim area.
River Run Park
2101 W Oxford Ave., Englewood, CO, 80110 | endlesswaveco@gmail. com|endlesswaves.net/waves/riverrun-park/
It may not be a common sight in Colorado, but there are places to surf.
River Run Park on the South Platte River is one of many and has been expanding over the years to allow transplanted surfers from the ocean to hit the waves.
“ e waves get sort of more powerful and more challenging to ride as you go upstream,” said Jacob Vos, a director of the Colorado River Sur ng Association.
e most beginner-friendly wave in the park is “Chiclets” while the other two waves, “Benihanas” and “Six” are more high-speed and dynamic as they have hydraulic plates that are in the river to help shape the waves and attune them to the ow of the river.
“ at adjustability doesn’t mean the waves work for all conditions all the time, but it certainly widens the range of ows,” Vos said.
Since river sur ng di ers from ocean sur ng, Vos stresses that ankle leashes can be deadly in an “insidious” way because the force of the river makes it challenging to reach the ankle to release the leash.
Other features in the park are conducive for whitewater kayaking and
tubing, but Vos encourages users to check the South Platte River Union water gauges — which show how much water is in the river — and recommends wearing a helmet.
If the gauges show 100 CFS cubic feet per square, it’s more mellow, Vos said, but when it gets up to 1,000 cubic feet per square, the water is more violent.
“If people are just oating or just hanging out, they can have rude surprises if they don’t pay attention to those ows,” Vos said.
Parking is available at the Broken Tree Golf Course, however, the gates close in the evening. Parking is also available on the west side of the river. If there are additional questions, like where to get equipment, the Colorado Rivers Facebook group serves as a message board for the river sur ng community.

Colorado, with its dramatic mountain landscapes, deep winter snow and thriving ski industry, has been referred to as the “Switzerland of America.” Gov. Jared Polis even once used the phrase.
e similarities were are more than just a name. A delegation of experts from Switzerland visited Boulder in early June for a summit on melting snow and ice. Mountain guides, climate scientists, artists and policymakers shared notes on the impacts of climate change on high-mountain landscapes.
ose experts painted a fairly bleak picture as they described the role of warming trends in reshaping the snow and ice that de ne the Rockies and Alps.
Perhaps the most striking accounts of those changes came from mountain guides, who lead groups of climbers and adventurers on trips through the peaks. Angela Hawse, a Ridgway-based guide and vice president of the International Federation of Mountain Guides Association, shared videos of icefalls and rockfalls from around the world, showing how large pieces of mountains are falling apart as the ice and snow that holds them together disappears.
Hawse and Switzerland-based Urs Wellauer, the association’s president, both expressed optimism in nding xes to climate problems through collaboration. Hawse reected on a trip the binational group took to Boulder County’s Brainard Lake as part of the conference.
“It really brought us together as a bunch of individuals that have di erent perspectives on life,” she said, “ at have di erent professions, that have di erent ways of looking at the mountains and ways of understanding how we can work together to communicate our experiences for that shared experience of moving forward.”
Climate scientists from both countries presented data about a number of climate factors that are rapidly changing the behavior of high-altitude snow and ice. Temperature and precipitation patterns in the Rockies and Alps are changing, and the two regions share even more granular similarities.
Researchers explained how windblown dust in Colorado is landing on top of snow, making it darker, absorbing more radiation from the sun and melting faster. at phenomenon makes it harder to capture and share water from the Colorado River, which is used by 40 million people across the Southwest.

blown across the Mediterranean is a factor in the quickening melting of glaciers. e nation’s glaciers lost 10% of their total volume in 2022 and 2023, the same amount that melted in the three decades between 1960 and 1990.
Emily Zmak, a deputy chief at the Colorado Water Conservation Board who focuses on interstate water policies, remarked at the many similarities between the challenges facing both Colorado and Switzerland, and the potential solutions.
“ ere’s also a sense of optimism,” Zmak said. “We haven’t lost all of our snowpack, we still have time to adapt and be smart, to build community resilience to build resilience
at a state or federal government level.”
Ambassador Balz Abplanalp, the Swiss representative for the Western U.S., organized the conference and said international collaboration will be a key part of global climate change solutions going forward.

Injuries related to rearms in Colorado racked up at least $8.4 million in medical bills in 2022, according to a recently released analysis.
e report, produced by the Center for Improving Value in Health Care, or CIVHC, is the rst of its kind to examine some of the economic impacts of rearm injuries. But it is in keeping with a growing e ort in Colorado to think of gun-related harms as a health issue and to study them in the same way researchers might look at other public health challenges.
“It’s an important way to look at things,” said Dr. Emmy Betz, the director of the Firearm Injury Prevention Initiative at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, who was not involved in the new study.
“It helps people think about another aspect of this speci cally beyond the deaths.”
To conduct this analysis, CIVHC relied on a powerful tool — the state’s all-payer claims database, which has amassed anonymized data from more than a billion Colorado medical claims drawn from more than 5.5 million unique people.
In addition to the dollar amount, CIVHC also found some concerning trends within the data.
Between 2016 and 2022, the rate of medical claims for rearm-related injuries increased 53%. But it increased even more for injuries to kids: 120%.
Men were three times more likely than women to su er rearm injuries. And rural counties generally have higher rates of injury than urban ones.

and CEO, said in a statement that the analysis shows “the critical need for continued focus on comprehensive public health, education, and community-tailored initiatives aimed at addressing and preventing rearm violence.”
Many rearms injuries — particularly homicides and suicides — do not result in a medical claim for tragic reasons. So CIVHC’s analysis ended up weighted heavily toward an often less examined area: unintentional injuries. Of the more than 7,000 claims analyzed for 2022, 72% were coded for unintentional injuries. Next came assaults at 17%.
Betz said the analysis ultimately is a snapshot of just one slice of gunrelated harms. But even still Betz said medical claims data can provide valuable insight into the issues underlying gun injuries.
“It raises concerns for me about what is happening in those homes and why rearms are maybe not being locked up in those homes,” she said.
at question can help identify where public health campaigns — such as the state’s Let’s Talk Guns, Colorado campaign, which promotes gun safety and safe storage — could have an impact.
e idea of treating guns and the potential negative consequences associated with them as a public health issue is gaining momentum in Colorado. (Experts in the eld prefer the term rearm-related harms to the term gun violence because they believe the latter creates an impression that most injuries or deaths are due to assaults. Contrary to public perception, the large majority of rearm-related deaths in Colorado are suicides.)
Lawmakers in 2021 created the state O ce of Gun Violence Preven-
tion, which provides data on rearms issues in the state and gives grants to communities and organizations looking to tackle gun-related problems. CU’s Firearm Injury Prevention Initiative conducts research. And earlier this spring, a new program launched to try to better connect the pieces.
e Firearm-Related Harm and Violence Prevention Program O ce, which is housed in the Trailhead Institute, hopes to work with organizations to help them examine gun-related issues in their communities and then apply for resources to address them.
“ is is an opportunity to move past ideologies and rhetoric,” said Jonathan McMillan, the program ofce’s director.
McMillan, who formerly led the state’s O ce of Gun Violence Prevention, was in Washington, D.C., last week for a meeting with the White House O ce of Gun Violence Prevention and other local violenceprevention programs — showing that interest in tackling the health aspects of gun issues is not just a Colorado phenomenon.
He said the goal of the public health work is not to take away guns or criticize those who own and value them. Rather, he said, it’s to help communities identify areas of concern — it may be suicides in one community or interpersonal violence in another — and then to work with those communities on speci c strategies to address the issues.
“It’s about helping communities speak more to what their needs are,” McMillan said.

A dead bat that tested positive for rabies may have been in contact with a dog at a residential property in Weld County, according to a June 3 news release.
Kristeen Bevel, the environmental health specialist at the Weld County Public Health and Environment, said that since the rabies virus sporadically occurs in bat populations, o cials do not suspect it was an infection from another source.
“It’s not common, but very few bats have rabies,” Bevel said. “But because of the severity of the disease, anytime bats are in contact with people or pets, we are concerned. It’s when we’re testing them,” Bevel said.
e property owner contacted
animal control and the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment (WCDPHE). According to o cials, Colorado State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory received the bat for testing, con rmed it tested positive, and forwarded the result to the WCDPHE.
According to o cials, the dog who may have encountered the bat has been vaccinated against rabies and is being monitored by the owner and veterinarians.
Health o cials indicated that summer is the peak season for rabies in Colorado, so to keep domestic animals such as cats, dogs, horses, and livestock safe, they must be vaccinated.
According to o cials, rabies is spread through a bite from an infected bat or rabid animal; once bitten, it spreads quickly when the saliva
or tissues encounter cuts, scratches, eyes, nose, or mouth.
In Weld County, there have been no reports of human deaths related to rabies exposure, according to ofcials.
Bevel said that bats often hide during the day and come out right around dusk, moving around and trying to catch bugs and eat.
“During the day, they lay low and sleep. ey often roost in areas where they can hide from the sun and the bright lights. Also, commonly hide in eaves and roofs, or sometimes right around the edges of siding,” Bevel said.
“Or they can hang from trees, which are very common places where they hang out. Occasionally, they nd other spots to hang out that
are less convenient for people, like underneath a patio umbrella.”
Bevel said that some bats stay around during the summer, but some migrate from a warmer climate. Several di erent species of bats live in Colorado, and so some hide out and stay here year-round and migrate at di erent times of year.
“Summer is the time of year when bat form their maternity colonies and moms all get- together and they have their babies and take care of their babies,” Bevel said.
For more information, visit weld. gov/go/zoonosis or contact WCDPHE at (970) 400-2290 if anyone or their pet has had contact with a wild animal. For after-hours (outside of 8 a.m. - 5 p.m., Monday-Friday), contact Weld County Dispatch at (970) 350-9600 and select option 4.

“I supported his election to Governor, but I am extremely disappointed in these recent actions, including trying to in uence our election by endorsing my opponent,” Ezeadi said. “My lack of endorsement combined with these attacks from wealthy special interest groups should be a signal to people that I am the working-class champion that will always prioritize people over pro t, small business over big (corporations) and community over self-interest.”
Dark money claims
Ezeadi, who was elected to the Westminster City Council in 2021, has been targeted by a group called Progressives for Accountability and Real Change. e group’s mailers
claim Ezeadi has sided with corporate interests during his term on the council.
Ezeadi denies the assertions and says he is being singled out by a “dark money organization” for his stances backing paid leave for city employees and ensuring a ordable housing in the city.
Daugherty denies any knowledge of the mailers.
Ezeadi and Daugherty are hoping to occupy the Senate seat currently occupied by Rachel Zenzinger who will be term-limited by November.
Daugherty has represented House District 24 since 2021. She said she is seeking a place in the Senate because it has a “greater reach” politically.
“I think I am ready for it,” said Daugherty, an attorney. She would be the only female attorney in the Colorado Senate if she is elected.
Daugherty represented the inter-
ests of children in court and said has sponsored legislation to support Colorado’s youth.
“I will always make sure the voices of youth are heard and will work to make sure they get the services they need at the right time,” Daugherty said.
She also said she will strive to protect women’s reproductive rights.
“I think voters really care about the reproductive rights for women and right now little girls have less rights than I did when I was growing up,” Daugherty said. “In Colorado, it is important to protect that right.”
Ezeadi is the son of Nigerian immigrants and only the second Black councilor elected in Westminster history.
His city of Westminster biography states he has professional certi cations in strategic planning, project management and procurement/ supply management. He said he has
nearly two decades of professional experience in the elds of healthcare, transportation, real estate, technology, and hospitality.
Ezeadi is also a small business owner and entrepreneur and started an investment company focused on acquiring alternative assets and investing in small businesses, according to his biography.
If elected, Ezeadi said he would restore e ective governance: collaboration, civility, and problem-solving, according to his statement to Colorado Politics.
“ ey (voters) should choose me to bring my working-class perspective to a government often detached from everyday struggles,” Ezeadi said. “With proven leadership in housing the poor, supporting seniors, and educating youth, plus extensive experience in housing healthcare, and technology, I am uniquely equipped to end government dysfunction.”

If you yearn to fly back to the sounds of yesteryear, you will love soaring to new heights with Boulder’s own Sun Jr, appearing at the MILE HIGH HOEDOWN later this month! The band’s sound is a blend of psychedelia, cosmic cowboy and Americana with indie-folk influences.
Friends Nod Norkus (drums), Jim Heekin (guitar/singer), Matt Kubis (banjo/singer), Jon Schimek (pedal steel guitar), and Jeremiah Streets (keys/ bass/organ) launched the band in 2013. They practiced in the evenings in Jim’s basement (“The Bottoms”), where they have become a “band of brothers.”
Sun Jr. hit the stage with a style all their own and immediately made an impression. From a spot on the “Gentleman of the Road” tour in Salida with Mumford & Sons, Dawes and the Flaming Lips in 2015, they’ve grinded their way into a stellar act that you cannot miss.
During the 2020 COVID pandemic, the band leaned heavily into long basement jams, taking notes from the likes of Pink Floyd and late ’60s bands that played for art’s sake. They branched into livestreaming to reach out to more folks and have continued to do so.
“In February 2024, (Heekin) posted a TikTok video of our song ‘Buttercorn’ from a live performance at Dharma Farm
— and it went viral,” Norkus said. “The post garnered 2.3 million views and about 40,000 new fans.”
The post was the mega break that has opened more doors to some of Colorado’s best venues and a “second media wave” of the post expanded their reach even farther, he said.
“We started receiving invitations to play in California, Texas, and points beyond the U.S.,” Norkus said.
The band’s current goal is
mostly to ignore national invites and build an ardent local fan base. To stay connected, they are partnering with Chris Wright of Violet Recording to capture their Colorado live shows to share more broadly. Wright will also engineer a series of in-studio live recordings, possibly capturing two albums from this dual recording process.
Visit sunjrband.com for the latest band information (recordings, play dates — and more)! Then, “go down” to the MILE HIGH HOEDOWN and enjoy Sun Jr.’s “Psych Mountain Rock” ex-
perience LIVE at the Stampede, 2431 S. Havana Street, in Aurora.
MILE HIGH HOEDOWN attendees can enjoy food truck food and beverages, learn new line dances with instructor/choreographer Laurie Burkardt, “creative cut” or screen print their own T-shirt with Ink & Drink, purchase a custom hat from hat shaper Parker Thomas, get a “flash” tattoo from Ace of MR. ACE Art & Tattoos; and visit Little People Face Painting for cool, but not permanent, body/ face/hair art — you’ll be sure to sparkle during Sun Jr.’s LIVE, never-to-be-duplicated hoedown performance!

State board approves $300,000 grant for Centennial Airport’s unleaded fuel e ort
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Centennial Airport will get a $300,000 grant to support an ongoing program to provide more environmentally friendly unleaded fuel for the facility’s piston-powered aircraft. Neighbors and other critics have targeted both Centennial Airport in Arapahoe County and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in Broomeld for using lead fuel in their small aircraft. Lead fuel is a leading cause of air pollution and contributes to health problems for those who live near the airports, say activists.
Both airports are ranked among the busiest general aviation airports in the country, according to the Pilot Institute.
e grant to Centennial from the Colorado Aeronautical Board will support a price subsidy program at the airport aimed at making the transition from lead to unleaded fuel aviation fuels more economical, according to a news release from the Colorado Aeronautical Board.
Centennial Airport in May 2023 became the rst airport in Colorado to o er unleaded aviation fuel at their JetCenters of Colorado Fixed Base Operator (FBO), the news release states.
e move marked a critical step towards eliminating lead fuels for piston aircraft in Colorado. To help address the higher cost of transitioning to unleaded aviation fuel, in 2023, the
airport developed and executed an agreement with JetCenters of Colorado to implement a subsidy program, states the news release.
is program allows the FBO to provide unleaded aviation fuel at nearly the same price as its low-lead counterpart and then be reimbursed by the airport for the price di erence. To date, the subsidy program has shown promise, as over 80% of the training aircraft operating at Centennial have been certi ed to safely use the currently available 94-octane unleaded aviation fuel. To broaden the program’s success, Centennial Airport has allocated $380,000 to support this innovative aviation fuel price subsidy program, the news release states.
e grant from the aeronautical board comes almost a month after Gov. Jared Polis signed HB24-1235, which focuses on reducing the negative impacts of aviation on Colorado’s communities and smoothing the transition to a safe, eetwide 100 octane unleaded fuel, the news release states.
e bill provides that the lesser of $1.5 million or 10% of the annual Colorado Discretionary Aviation Grant (CDAG) Program be allocated to support Colorado public-use airport transition to unleaded aviation fuel, according to the news release.
As the only Colorado airport currently o ering unleaded aviation fuel, this year’s price subsidy funding grant to Centennial Airport will set the precedent for potential future funding of unleaded aviation fuel subsidy programs at other Colorado airports beginning with the next grant cycle in early 2025, the news release states.
Colorado Aeronautical Board (CAB) Chair Kent Holsinger said in the news release that “the CAB and the Division of Aeronautics are excited to help facilitate our industry’s transition to a safe, a ordable eetwide unleaded aviation fuel, as those fuels continue to be developed. We are committed to assisting airports with this transition through innovative programs like this, and future Division funding for unleaded fuel infrastructure,” he said.
“We are committed to protecting our clean air and keeping Coloradans healthy no matter where they live,” said Polis in the news release. “ is session we took action to keep Coloradans who live near airports
safe, and this grant will help Centennial Airport continue its work to transition to unleaded fuel, protecting our clean air and environment. I look forward to seeing more airports follow Centennial’s lead,” Polis said. “ ere is no safe level of lead, and HB24-1235 makes transitioning away from lead aviation fuel a top priority,” said Rep. Kyle Brown, who was a co-sponsor of the bill, in the news release.
“I applaud the Department of Transportation and the Division of Aeronautics for working to immediately implement this new law,” said Brown. “With this grant, Centennial Airport and Arapahoe County will continue to lead the way in transitioning towards unleaded fuel. I encourage airports across Colorado to follow Centennial’s lead in applying for this new funding.”
Centennial Airport Executive Director Mike Fronapfel said in the news release that “Centennial Airport is committed to being a global leader in sustainability and the transition to unleaded aviation fuel. We were the rst airport in Colorado to o er an FAA-approved alternate unleaded fuel to our customers. is happened by listening to our communities’ concerns, having a responsive airport board and elected leaders, and leveraging our strong partnerships with jetCenters of Colorado and based ight schools,” Fronapfel said.
“With the support of the Colorado Aeronautical Board, we can continue to facilitate the transition to unleaded aviation fuel not just at Centennial Airport, but across the state,” he said.

Colorado-born Parker Thomas Orms always envisioned himself growing up and tackling life head-on as an athlete on a sports field. So, how did he wind up being a hat shaper and owner of Hats By Parker Thomas? The answer is… fate! Parker’s father Glenn has been a hat shaper all his life following the tradition set by his own father. Parker’s grandpa Dewey started shaping hats 65 years ago in Texas —and did so until his death in 2022.
Parker inherited his passion for playing sports from his mom and her family. His mother Katherine lettered in softball at Northern Colorado in the 1970s.
Parker Thomas Orms attended Colorado University Boulder (2010-2013) on a football scholarship and played defensive back for the Colorado Buffaloes football team. He was an engaging presence on the field and a fan favorite. Parker was on the path to joining the NFL although football-related injuries (shoulder and hamstring injuries and a torn ACL for which he had to undergo surgery) likely ended that pursuit.
In 2015, Parker traveled to Milan to play semi-pro football as a Free Safety Punt Return Man for the Milano Rhinos, Italy’s professional league. But after playing his last football season in Europe, Parker Thomas came home to his family and the family traditions that are tightly woven into the fabric of his being. So, it wasn’t just a “hat” trick that led him to become a hat shaper and Parker’s success is proving to be far more rewarding than he could ever have imagined.
can shape any type hat he especially enjoys creating cowboy style hats, which are so very popular throughout Colorado.
“Most hats can be done in around 30 minutes and I will make your hat to order right there at the Mile High Hoedown,” said Parker who mentioned that his custom wool or beaver-blend hats range from $200 to $450. For additional fees he also offers cleaning, reshaping and branding services.
“I worked with my father and grandfather for eight years. Traveling around different rodeos and western-themed events, I shaped and designed cowboy and fedora hats,” said Parker who has been adding his own sense of style and creativity to traditional hats while shaping his own destiny in the process.

Then he opened Hats By Parker Thomas (https://www.hatsbyparkerthomas.com/) two years ago at 257 Fillmore St., Unit 110, in the Cherry Creek area of Denver where he meets with his clientele by appointment. Parker and his small team of hat craftsmen also shape and sell his hats nationwide at private home parties (with 5-25 people), weddings, corporate gatherings, and community events. Likewise, sports figures and celebrities like Reba McEntire are now a part of his overall customer base. Most of Parker’s bookings are
The store and private events keep Parker busy these days but he still enjoys opportunities to be part of community events like the June 29 Mile High Hoedown at the Stampede in Aurora.
“I am really looking forward to meeting people at the Mile High Hoedown,” said Parker who explained that he welcomes every opportunity to support Colorado’s lifestyles and interact with athletes/artists, and all others within its many communities.
“Each hat and design depends on the needs of the customer and the customizations they choose,” said Parker. He stated that although he

A bill creating the Black Coloradan Racial Equity Commission was signed into law June 4.
But supporters must raise $785,000 to prove there is strong community support for what the law directs History Colorado to do — assess and quantify the nancial impact of slavery, racism and discrimination on
Black Coloradans and make recommendations for corrective measures. e group is about $30,000 short of reaching that goal by a self-imposed deadline of July 1.
“ is is not us using public dollars for something other folks didn’t think we needed a study on,” said state Sen. James Coleman, a Black Denver Democrat and lead sponsor of the law. “We had a big fundraising e ort this year, and at this point,
we’re short about $30,000. I feel strongly we’ll be able to raise the rest of that money to begin implementing the bill.”
A similar bill, House Bill 1327, which passed in 2022, included $618,611 in state funding for History Colorado to investigate abuses at a federal Native American boarding school at Fort Lewis, in southern Colorado, and others like it statewide.
is year, the governor signed House Bill 1444, which provided $1 million to fund the Federal Indian Boarding School Research Program until the end of 2027.
State lawmakers did not ask for funding when they drafted the new racial equity study measure, Senate Bill 53, for Black Coloradans because “we knew it wouldn’t have passed,” said Sade Cooper, co-founder and chief executive o cer at CHIC Denver. e group is helping fundraise for Senate Bill 53, and helps families break free of intergenerational poverty and violence.
“We have similar studies that have passed,” Cooper said. “ ere was just one about the Indian boarding schools — that came with funding. But when it comes to really, truly, wanting to study this, in a partnership, we knew that if we went in there asking for money for something as contentious as this was, this wouldn’t have seen the light of day.
at’s sad and it says a lot about our political environment.”
Senate Bill 53 establishes a commission to direct History Colorado to conduct historical research across areas such as economic mobility, housing, education, health care and the criminal justice system. Racial equity studies can be used as tools to qualify and quantify past discrimination and develop ways to make corrections.
Slavery, systemic racism and discrimination continue to harm Black Coloradans, who still disproportionately struggle to gain wealth and access other basic necessities such as health care, higher education, nancial stability and housing.
Black people who were enslaved and unpaid for their work decades ago helped other Americans become wealthy and powerful and they’re now owed those same opportunities and resources, the preamble to Senate Bill 53 says. eir lost wages and
assets not only a ect them but also detract from Colorado’s labor force, tax base and the overall health of the state’s economy.
e results of the racial equity study will hopefully show that communities came together to do, Cooper said, “what’s right for all.”
We can now be the architects for the next generation,” she said. “ at is what I want to know, as a Black Coloradan — that we are taking care of those that I might never know.”
While lawmakers and other organizations are working to raise the money needed to begin the analysis required by Senate Bill 53, many Black Coloradans are commemorating Juneteenth, which marks the date when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865, to take control of the state and ensure enslaved Black people were freed — more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed on Jan. 1, 1863.
“We may not be shackled at the wrists and ankles literally, and working as indentured servants, but we are still unfortunately shackled by a lack of access to good education and a lack of access to the nancial wealth needed to buy a home,” Coleman said. “ ese are the kinds of things that still a ect our communities.”
Senate Bill 53 describes a 14-member commission, to be convened by Sept. 1, that will help shape a threeyear study that aims to determine how Black Coloradans have experienced and continue to experience racial discrimination because of harmful state systems, policies and practices.
e study group must include people with legal expertise in constitutional law and racial justice; a historian who has studied Black history, slavery and racism; a person with experience quantifying the economic impact of those harms on Black people; and other public servants who have worked with Black Coloradans. e members of the study committee will be appointed by the governor, the speaker of the House of Representatives and the president of the Senate.

With winter in the rearview, it’s time to ditch the snowboards and break out the wheels again. Coloradans are spoiled with over 70 skate parks in and around the Denver metro area, according to SpeakEasy Skate, a Colorado skate park directory run by local Damian Dixon. e directory boasts more than 200 in the state.
at many parks can be the best kind of overwhelming, whether you’re a seasoned skater or want to try skateboarding for the rst time (or biking, scootering, rollerblading and whatever else people do at skate parks, rules per park depending). But everyone has to start somewhere.
e choices seem endless with new parks opening every year, like the new Sloan’s Lake Pumptrack in Denver that opened in 2023. But here are ve to get you started around the Front Range.
Don Anema Memorial Skate Park
Location: Northglenn
Strength: Flow park
Lights: User-activated; the last activation can occur at 9:45 p.m.
Opened in 2011, the sea of desertred waves known as Don Anema Memorial Skate Park is one of the best ow parks (speci cally made for continuous riding without pushing) in the metro area. ere are multiple unusual features, like arches next to gaps, so skaters can jump the gaps or simply roll over them. A spiral roll-in bowl sits tucked into the corner for a quick whip-around, and several manual boxes, stairs, ledges and snake-like ramps allow for an even ow throughout. e larger bowl in the back of the park is the cherry on top of this skate park sundae, making Don Anema perfect for both practice and fun.
William McKinley Carson Park & Skate Park
Location: Greenwood Village
Strength: Two-for-one
Lights: No
Tucked away in William McKinley
Carson Park, the 15,000-square-foot arena is hidden by trees away from the main road, which obscures the fact that it’s actually two parks in one. e rst section is an intricate bowl system, with roll-ins from each side so it’s accessible to skaters of di erent levels. On the other side of the park, you have an Olympiclevel ow/street-style section. e slightly slanted run is connected by two quarter-pipes on either end, with multiple boxes, ramps and rails. Just get there before the sun goes down.
Arvada Skate Park
Location: Arvada
Strength: A bit of everything Lights: On until 10 p.m. It can be a bit di cult to decide what to do at this 40,000-squarefoot oasis for skaters. From the parking lot, turn left into the park and hit a valley of roll-in ramps, which lead to a at-trick area at the base of a small bowl section. On the north side of the park is a long, snake-like bowl system of small hills and roll-
overs. Head to the northeast corner for a skateable brick wall. Two circular platforms overlap each other for easy kick-turns near the entrance. e ‘bullpen’ of the skatepark has a half-bowl system, several stairs and ledges, and an unusual, large ramp on an island to ollie on, roll up and down and then hop back o .
Researchers on the committee may examine Black Coloradans’ ability to build nancial wealth by studying residential and commercial loan trends and tax policy, the law states.
e committee will also likely determine Black Coloradans’ ability to access higher education and workforce training programs and may study health disparities, police brutality and incarceration, among many other trends, to help estimate thenancial toll on African Americans in the state, the law says.
History Colorado must conduct at least two public engagement sessions in di erent parts of the state that allow community members to o er comments virtually or in-person about how state government has inuenced policies that have resulted in systemic racism and discriminations against Black Coloradans.
e dates for those community engagement sessions will likely be published in news media advisories and at leg.colorado.gov, when they are scheduled, Coleman said.
By September 2027, the study commission must submit a report outlining its ndings and recommendations to the governor, the Colorado General Assembly, the State Board of Education, the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, the Colorado Attorney General and the Health Equity Commission.
e study commission must also make the report publicly available on the Colorado General Assembly website.
Ulysses Skate Park
Location: Golden
Strength: Mountain and city views Lights: On until 10 p.m.
Nestled against the foothills in Golden, this ve-year-old, 27,000-square-foot park ows in a big loop and boasts the best views of any locale on this list. ere’s a attrick-designated area with a manual box (a at platform best used for practicing wheelie combinations) connected to the rest of the park by a tunnel with ‘GOLDEN’ carved in the roof, spelling the city’s name on
e commission must present the ndings in the report to the Colorado General Assembly and the governor.
After that, the commission must work with lawmakers and anyone else necessary to implement the recommendations outlined in the report, the law says.
If the study determines the nancial toll of racism and discrimination on Black Coloradans, the sum will be used to help inform future policy decisions, Coleman said.
“We will begin the rst year of the work upon receiving the funds — hopefully by July 1,” Coleman said.
“After funds are secured, we’d love to kick o the task force in August and begin doing preliminary work with History Colorado and the task force to talk about Black history in Colorado. en, the goal would be to continue looking at the data we have in the second year, as we’re moving into 2025.”
Job descriptions are being drafted
History Colorado expects to begin hiring researchers this summer.
“As the research outcomes of this project are quite expansive, History Colorado is already in the process of drafting job descriptions, so we can move forward with hiring a team of researchers who can accomplish this serious and signi cant project,” Luke Perkins, a spokesperson for History Colorado, wrote in an email to e Colorado Sun.
“ is team will consist of four Black history scholars as well as a project manager who will help coordinate the team’s e orts,” he wrote in the email. “It is History Colorado’s goal to have these postings up before the end of summer and to have this team

e research team will use historical documents such as those already archived by History Colorado and Denver Public Library, and will work with community members to nd information excluded from those records, Perkins wrote in the email.
Colorado was not a state that enslaved Black people, but the state bene ted economically from labor done by them, Perkins wrote.
“Many early prospectors brought enslaved persons to the Colorado territory to do labor,” he wrote. “Colorado wasn’t considered a state when emancipation was proclaimed but enslaved people worked here prior to statehood and the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.”
e Ku Klux Klan also wielded great power and in uence in Denver and in state politics in the 1920s. Major Colorado towns, including Denver, Grand Junction, Pueblo, and Cañon City were hotbeds for Klan activity, and by 1925, the racist organization had in ltrated all levels of state government, controlling many members of the legislature and people in the state supreme court, and on some town councils, according to the new law.
Some of the most notable KKK members at that time included the mayor of Denver, the Denver police chief and the governor. e group’s presence in those higher levels of government has in uenced state policies and systems and created inequalities that still negatively affect Black Coloradans, Senate Bill 53 says.

Statistics consistently demonstrate the disparities that Black people still face show there’s no better time for states to pass similar legislation, Cooper said.
In 2020, the homeownership gap between Black and white Coloradans was 32%. Black people in Colorado are incarcerated at a rate that is more than seven times higher than white people in the state, according to the Prison Policy Initiative. Black people face a higher unemployment rate compared with any other racial group in the state. Black Coloradans also face many poor health outcomes at rates much higher than white Coloradans such as food insecurity, infant and maternal mortality, asthma, diabetes and HIV and AIDS. Despite the falling poverty rates, in 2021, Black Coloradans were still about twice as likely to live in poverty when compared with white Coloradans, according to a U.S. Census Bureau data analysis by the Colorado News Collaborative. e average Black American has a life expectancy of nearly ve years fewer than the average white American, according to e Kaiser Family Foundation.
“We collect this data but it hasn’t been organized,” Coleman said. “We will use this information to help determine what policies we can run in the future. We want policies that are data-driven and data-informed. e goal is to also share this information broadly for any other projects,” he said of the study’s potential ndings. is story was printed through a news sharing agreement with e Colorado Sun, a journalist-owned nonpro t based in Denver that covers the state.

Brownhill, Esq., Nazarenus Stack & Wombacher LLC, 5105 DTC Parkway, Suite 200, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111. 2. Overview. Applicant seeks to adjudicate the Denver Basin Aquifers underlying approximately 500 acres owned by Applicant in Adams County, Colorado (“Property”), depicted on Exhibit A. This includes not-nontributary water in the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers and nontributary water in the Denver, Upper Arapahoe, Lower Arapahoe, and Laramie-Fox Hills Aquifers.

The Water Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this application pursuant to C.R.S. §§ 37-92-302(2) and 37-90-137(6). 4. Underground Water Rights Claimed. A. Wells. Wells that will withdraw the groundwater sought to be decreed by this Application have not yet been constructed, nor have applications for well permits been filed. Prior to constructing any additional wells to withdraw the subject groundwater, Applicant will apply to the State Engineer for a permit to construct that well, and the Applicant requests that the Court require, as a condition of the decree entered in this case, that well permits be issued upon application for any such wells in accordance with said decree.

3. Proposed Terms and Conditions for Deletion. ¶11.1.3 of the Decree requires that “WAS shall continue to replace all out-of-priority depletions caused by pre-deletion pumping of the well that occurred while the well was covered under the WAS plan or associated substitute supply plan.” White Sands Water Engineers Inc., (“WSWE”) has computed the total amount of the future depletions from past pumping from the Deleted Well while it was included in the Augmentation Plan. That amount is a total of 74.93 acre-feet as shown in the WSWE report dated January 25, 2024, and attached hereto as Exhibit 2. Applicant proposes to replace all the depletions shown in Exhibit 2 at any time such depletions are out of priority pursuant to the terms of the WAS Decree. Applicant requests the Court approve Exhibit 2, Attachment 1 which is a revised Exhibit 1 to the WAS Decree and which reflects the proposed deletion requested by this Application. 4. Distribution of Future Well Depletions. The WAS Decree requires WAS to distribute well depletions between river reaches. ¶22.2 of the WAS Decree states: “In the event of the addition or deletion of a well under this plan pursuant to ¶¶11.1.2

spacing rule as described in C.R.S. § 37-90-137(2)(b)(I)(B) for wells located on the Property. The estimated average annual amounts of withdrawal available from the subject aquifers as indicated below are based upon the Denver Basin Rules, 2 C.C.R. § 402-6. Applicant, based on the Colorado Division of Water Resources online aquifer determination tool, estimates the following annual amounts of nontributary and not-nontributary underlie the Property:
Water Supply Availability (af/yr)
Upper Arapahoe Lower Arapahoe LaramieFox Hills Totals
The water supply availability listed in the table above is based on a 100-year aquifer life in accordance with C.R.S. § 37-90-137(4)(b)(I). Applicant claims the right to withdraw more than the average annual amounts listed above pursuant to Rule 8A of the Statewide Rules, 2 C.C.R. § 402-7. F. Wellfield. Applicant requests that this Court determine that Applicant has the right to withdraw all of the legally available groundwater lying below the Property through wells which may be located anywhere on the Property and any additional wells which may be completed in the future as Applicant’s wellfields. As additional wells are constructed, well permit applications will be filed in accordance with C.R.S. § 37-90-137(10). G. Proposed Uses. Municipal, domestic, commercial, industrial, irrigation, livestock watering, fire protection, recharge, storage, recreation, exchange, augmentation, and replacement. Applicant also claims the right to reuse and successive uses of the water to extinction, and the right to lease, convey, or otherwise dispose of the water. H. Places of Use. Applicant seeks the right to use the legally available groundwater lying below the Property both on the Property and off the Property. Uses off the Property include, but are not limited to, other lands contiguous to the Property and owned by the Applicant. 5. Description of Plan for Augmentation. A. Groundwater to be Augmented. All withdrawals of not-nontributary Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers groundwater underlying the Property that do not occur through exempt wells, as requested herein. B. Water Rights to be Used for Augmentation: i. Not-nontributary groundwater from the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers underlying the Property as decreed herein; and ii. Nontributary groundwater from the Denver, Upper Arapahoe, Lower Arapahoe, and Laramie-Fox Hills Aquifers underlying the Property as decreed herein. C. Statement of Plan for Augmentation. During pumping, Applicant will replace depletions associated with the withdrawal of the not-nontributary groundwater decreed herein pursuant to C.R.S. § 37-90137(9)(c.5) (i.e., 4% of not-nontributary withdrawals from the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers where such withdrawals are farther than one mile from any point of contact be-

tween any natural stream and the aquifer, and actual depletions of not-nontributrary withdrawals from the Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers where such withdrawals are closer than one mile from any point of contact between any natural stream and the aquifer). To ensure such replacements are made, Applicant will develop accounting to document replacements that accrue by (i) return flows from irrigation; and (ii) treated wastewater discharges. Further, direct releases of not-nontributary and nontributary groundwater may be used for augmentation. To meet post-pumping depletion requirements for not-nontributary withdrawals of groundwater underlying the Property, Applicant will reserve an amount of nontributary groundwater equal to the post-pumping depletions. D. Augmentation Plan Assumptions. Applicant will develop augmentation plan assumptions and measuring devices to account for replacement water. Consumptive use is expected to be approximately 10% for all groundwater pumped for indoor use to account for any treatment and inhouse loss. For irrigation, sprinkler irrigation is expected to be approximately 85% consumptive and drip irrigation is expected to be approximately 95% consumptive. Applicant reserves the right to use reclaimed water or gray water for irrigation and will separately measure and account for such uses. WHEREFORE, Applicant respectfully requests the Court enter a ruling that: (1) grants the determination of groundwater rights requested herein for the nontributary Denver, Upper Arapahoe, Lower Arapahoe, and Laramie-Fox Hills Aquifers and the not-nontributary Denver and Upper Arapahoe Aquifers; (2) grants the plan for augmentation described in Paragraph 5; and (3) grants such other and further relief as the Court deems appropriate.

Grasmick, #35055, David L. Strait, #52659, Nicholas P. Espenan, #59333, Lawrence Custer Grasmick Jones & Donovan, LLP, brad@lcwaterlaw.com, dstrait@lcwaterlaw. com, nick@lcwaterlaw.com. APPLICATION TO ADD WELLS TO AUGMENTATION PLAN IN ADAMS, MORGAN AND WELD COUNTIES. 2. Summary of Application. WAS desires to adjudicate the addition of the Added Well described herein to its augmentation plan decreed in Water Court, Division No. 1, Case No. 03CW099 (the “WAS Decree”). The Added Well was previously included in the WAS Decree as a Member Well and was subsequently removed by Case No. 11CW106 in January 2013. The Subject Well has not been pumped since 2006 or earlier and there are no remaining net depletions due to prior pumping of the Added Well. 3. Structure to be Added and Augmented (“Added Well”): 3.1. Names and address of Well Owners: Scott Cline and Donna Jean Vonderlage, 1422 South Teller St. Lakewood, CO 80232. 3.2. Decree: W-4223.
A decree was entered in Water Court Division 1, on April 4, 1974, adjudicating the Added Well for irrigation of approximately 115 acres in the SW 1/4 of Section 31, Township 3 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. See Exhibit 1 hereto. 3.3. WAS Contract number 1344. Contract 1344 was approved April 16, 2024, irrigating 100 acres located on the SW 1/4 Section 31, Township 3 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M (the “The Vonderlage & Cline Property”). The General Location Map for the Vonderlage & Cline Property is attached as Exhibit 2. 3.4. Permit: 3.4.1. Permit 13155; WDID 0205616. 3.4.1.1. Location: SE1/4 of the SW1/4 of Section 31, Township 3 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado at a point 30 feet North and 21 feet West of the SW 1/4 of the SE 1/4 Corner. 3.4.1.2. Appropriation Date: July 6, 1957. 3.4.1.3. Decreed Amount: 2.30 cfs. 4. Proposed Terms and Conditions. 4.1. The terms and conditions for the Added Well will be the same as for the other Covered Wells in the WAS Decree. The consumptive use factor will be 60% for flood irrigated acres and 80% for sprinkler irrigated acres. The method for determining future well depletions will be those set out in the WAS Decree at ¶¶ 16-19. The Added Well will be subject to all the terms and conditions for operation as for other Covered Wells in the WAS Decree. 4.2. Net Stream Depletions: Depletions resulting from the consumptive use of groundwater and accretions resulting from deep percolation of groundwater applied for irrigation will be lagged back to the South Platte River using the Glover alluvial aquifer method and the following parameters: 4.2.1. WDID 0205616. Harmonic Mean Transmissivity (Gal-
lons/day/foot) T = 90,000. Specific Yield = 0.2. Total distance of alluvial aquifer boundary from river W = 7,483 feet. Distance of Well from river X = 3,593 feet. See WSWE Report, Exhibit 3. 5. Distribution of Future Well Depletions. The WAS Decree requires WAS to distribute well depletions between river reaches. ¶22.2 of the WAS Decree states: “In the event of the addition or deletion of a well under this plan pursuant to ¶¶ 11.1.2 and 11.1.3, the Court shall approve and order such adjustments to the percentages set forth in ¶¶ 22.2.1, 22.2.2, and 22.2.4 as necessary to ensure that depletions continue to be replaced at locations necessary to prevent injury.” The distribution of well depletions has been amended by the decrees entered subsequent to the WAS Decree. The addition of the Added Well to the WAS Decree will not change the total volume of replacement allocations for WAS Member Wells. As previously determined in Case No. 03CW099, pumping of the Added Well will result in depletions to the South Platte River in WAS Administrative Reach F3. WAS will replace out-of-priority depletions to the South Platte River from the sources listed in Attachment 3 within the WSWE Report attached hereto as Exhibit 3. Adding the Added Well does not adjust the distribution of well depletions in Reach F. The decreed site-specific aquifer parameters within in (Table 2-1) of Exhibit 3 will be used to calculate the delayed timing of depletions from pumping. Upon entry of a decree, the WAS projection will be amended to include the depletions attributable to the Added Well. This document consists of 4 pages.
THE WATER RIGHTS CLAIMED BY THESE APPLICATIONS MAY AFFECT IN PRIORITY ANY WATER RIGHTS CLAIMED OR HERETOFORE ADJUDICATED WITHIN THIS DIVISION AND OWNERS OF AFFECTED RIGHTS MUST APPEAR TO OBJECT WITHIN THE TIME PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR BE FOREVER BARRED.

Net Stream Depletions: Depletions resulting from the consumptive use of groundwater and accretions resulting from deep percolation of groundwater applied for irrigation will be lagged back to the South Platte River using the Glover alluvial aquifer method and the following parameters: 4.2.1. WDID 0208052. Harmonic Mean Transmissivity (Gallons/day/foot) T = 175,600. Specific Yield = 0.2. Total distance of alluvial aquifer boundary from river W = 16,422 feet. Distance of Well from river X = 8,250 feet. See Exhibit 3. 5. Distribution of Future Well Depletions. The WAS Decree requires WAS to distribute well depletions between river reaches. ¶ 22.2 of the WAS Decree states: “In the event of the addition or deletion of a well under this plan pursuant to ¶¶ 11.1.2 and 11.1.3, the Court shall approve and order such adjustments to the percentages set forth in ¶¶ 22.2.1, 22.2.2, and 22.2.4 as necessary to ensure that depletions continue to be replaced at locations necessary to prevent injury.” Pumping from the Added Well in this Application will deplete the South Platte River in WAS administrative Reach C and will require adjustment to the distribution well depletions which are replaced within Reach C. The updated distribution of well depletions within Reach C will be 48.0% to Reach C1 and 52.0% to Reach C2. This application consists of 3 pages and 3 exhibits.
