ornton o cials are piecing together a Vision Zero Action Plan aimed at reducing or eliminating all tra c fatalities and severe injuries on all local roads.

ornton’s Vision Zero Action

BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Plan is mirrored after national efforts to increase safe, healthy, equitable mobility for all, according to the Vision Zero Network website.

“First implemented in Sweden in the 1990s, Vision Zero has proved successful across Europe- and now it’s gaining momentum in major American cities,” the website states.

Each year, more than 42,000 people – the population of a small city – are killed on American streets and thousands more are injured, according to Vision Zero Network.

ornton’s Action Plan is geared toward creating a safe transportation system for all roadway users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users and vehicle users, said ornton Tra c Engineer Darrell Alston in a written statement.

“ is is a proactive approach in identifying and prioritizing local infrastructure that will bene t fame safety improvements,” Alston said.

“By developing a Vision Zero Action Plan, we will be able to help reduce the number of crashes that result in

a fatality or serious injury in ornton.”

ornton identi ed a need for a Vision Zero Action Plan in its 2022 Transportation and Mobility Master Plan, the news release states. ornton residents and community members can share tra c safety concerns through a survey on the ornton Vision Zero webpage. is rst-round survey will be assessed and followed up with two more surveys and community meetings.

Injured Adams 12 student sues district

e Adams 12 Five Star School District is not talking, at least publicly, about a lawsuit alleging the district allowed a severely disabled 12-yearold student to break both of his legs when he lost control of his wheelchair on a ramp three years ago.

e suit was led in U.S. District Court on behalf of the boy’s mother, Patricia Portillo Estrada. e lawsuit alleges Adams 12 violated the federal Americans with Disabilities Act by failing to provide accommodations for the boy’s disability “manifested deliberate indi erence to the plainti ’s safety and to his federally protected rights,” according to a report

by Colorado Public Radio.

e lawsuit alleges that the child continues to su er mentally, physically, and emotionally, with feelings of humiliation, frustration, hopelessness, and isolation, CPR states.

Adams 12 Tuesday issued a statement saying the district’s practice is not to share information on pending or ongoing litigation.

“ is child already has immense challenges in his life and now has the greater challenges and now is going to su er the e ects of these injuries for the rest of his life,” said Igor Raykin, the lawyer representing Estrada and her son. “And there is a cost associated with that that the school district should have to bear.”

Navigating a ramp

e boy, who was not named in the suit, has intellectual and physical disabilities that impair his walking, standing, working, learning, reading, concentrating and communicating, according to CPR.

e news outlet states that the boy uses a wheelchair, walker and a trike independently but requires supervision and assistance navigating ramps and uneven terrain, according to his Individualized Education Plan.

School security camera footage shows that on May 10, 2022, the boy tried to navigate a ramp between two classrooms at Rocky Mountain Elementary School but slid and crashed into a wall at the bottom, injuring himself, CPR states.

A school sta member discovered the boy at the bottom of the ramp but didn’t assist him, CPR states. e lawsuit says the boy gathered him-

self up and wheeled himself to class.

e lawsuit states that multiple sta members, according to an internal school report, noticed that the boy, who had fractured legs, was “on the verge of tears throughout the day” but nobody tried to investigate what was wrong. No school sta reported the boy’s injury, CPR states.

e lawsuit alleges the boy spent seven hours in severe pain before seeing his mother when she picked him up from the bus stop that afternoon.

Two days later, while at the hospital, the boy was diagnosed with bilateral fractures with severe swelling in his knees. He spent a month bedridden due to his injuries, and his mother had to quit her job to care for her son, according to the CPR report.

Adams 12 Five Star Schools is the focus of a lawsuit filed on behalf of a disabled student. MONTE WHALEY

Here Are My Thoughts About the Media Coverage of the Recent NAR Settlement

It has been interesting to observe how the mainstream media has covered the recent $418-million settlement involving the National Association of Realtors (NAR). In addition to the monetary settlement (which can be paid out over a four-year period), NAR agreed to end its rule requiring the inclusion in the MLS of compensation for brokers representing buyers.

It should be obvious by now that there is little understanding of why that rule existed and how it benefitted sellers to incentivize brokers outside the listing agent’s office to show and sell their homes.

ing or showing agents on clients who never sell or never buy.

It’s not a unique concept. Cruise lines and resorts, among others, offer a commission to travel agents to get them to promote their cruises and resorts, etc. Car dealers pay auto brokers who produce a buyer who otherwise wouldn’t visit their showrooms. (That’s how I bought my 2012 Chevy Volt back when I needed help finding that brand new model. I couldn't have found the one dealer who had one in transit to Aurora without my broker’s help.)

Similarly, offering a commission to other members of the MLS is how listing agents maximize the exposure of their sellers’ homes to the buying public. That exposure is compounded by the fact that every brokerage and consumer-facing website gets its listings from the MLS.

The public and the media have long quoted 6% as the “standard” real estate commission — as have some brokerages offering 1% listing commissions, with small print saying “plus co-op commission to buyer’s agent.”

That error continues and is compounded now with the media stating that 3% is the “standard” co-op commission paid by sellers to the agents representing buyers.

Worse, some media have been reporting that NAR mandates the infamous 6% commission, which is not at all true. Neither was a 3% co-op commission ever mandated, merely that some offer (as low as zero) had to be included in every MLS listing.

A reader sent me an analysis ordered by one of the Federal Reserve branches, which really got me laughing. A page from that analysis is reproduced at right. The purpose of the study was to calculate the reduction in agent earnings and the gain in social benefit if the “standard” 6%/3% system were modified. Not factored in at all was the time spent by list-

Archive of Past Columns Is Online

My July 20, 2023, “Real Estate Today” column carried the headline, “Unlike Most Professionals, Real Estate Agents Work for Free Most of the Time.” In it I made the following observation: “As it is, the average member of the National Association of Realtors earns less than $50,000 in gross commission income per year — before accounting for car, phone, MLS fees, Realtor dues, computer hardware & software, E&O insurance, and more.”

Business doesn’t come to most agents sitting in their office. They have to make themselves known, publish community newsletters in their “geographic farm,” hold open houses that may generate no sale or new clients. Myself, instead of prospecting, I spend an equivalent percentage of my time writing this column, which I then pay to have published in 23 weekly newspapers and the Denver Post. As my favorite quote at the bottom of each ad says, I “concentrate on giving and let the getting take care of itself.”

Successful real estate agents find other ways to give to their communities and thereby earn their patronage.

Yes, on occasion I will get an easy payday — a buyer who comes to me with a specific home to buy, we make an offer and close the transaction. Bingo! But that only compensates for the great amount of work done serving other buyers and other sellers plus those members of the public who ask for advice or a home valuation and never give me the opportunity to earn a pay check. I don’t resent that at all — it’s part of my giving, knowing I will be compensated in other ways. It actually makes me happy. (Call me anytime!)

Too many people enter our profession under the same misconception that I have described above, that real estate is an easy career to earn lots of money. They watch TV shows about million-dollar

listings or they see me driving my Tesla and other agents driving their BMWs and Mercedes. But we are the exception.

The public’s general impression is that real estate is a high-paying career. Keep in mind that NAR membership is optional, so agents who are willing to pay roughly $500 every year to be a NAR member are most likely the ones who take the business seriously, although many members work part-time in real estate because they can’t make ends meet solely from their commission income.

The most recent survey of NAR members included the following facts regarding median gross compensation and expenses (emphasis in original:

Realtors with 16 years or more experience had a median gross income of $80,700 — down from $85,000 in 2021 — compared to Realtors with 2 years or less experience that had a median gross income of $9,600 — an increase from $8,800 in 2021.

The largest expense category for most Realtors was vehicle expenses, which [averaged] $1,710.

I have estimated that the 80/20 rule applies as much to real estate agents as it does to other professions, although I think it’s closer to 90/10. Namely, 10% of us earn 90% of the money.

(Golden Real Estate’s broker associates and I are in the 10% because we work hard and smart.)

Too often, new agents spend a year

spinning their wheels, making cold calls and spending $10,000 or more on tools of the trade only to end the year with one or no transaction, so they give up, having lost that investment and wasted a year of their professional life. It’s really sad to watch.

It takes time to get established in the real estate profession. My broker associates and I have passed that tipping point and will renew our licenses when they expire, unlike the majority of new agents.

Some real estate agents are quite upset about the part of the settlement which removes buyer agent compensation from MLS listings beginning in mid-July, assuming the court approves the settlement.

A Wall Street Journal article posted on March 20th describes how buyers are getting off the fence before the new rules take effect in July requiring them to pay their own agent. That makes sense to me; it also means that now is a good time for potential sellers to get off the fence and list their homes for sale.

How Will This Affect Buyers & Sellers?

Not having co-op commissions on the MLS will require agents to talk to each other before submitting offers, to clarify whether the seller is offering compensation to the buyer’s agent. I discuss that and the other effects of the NRA settlement in the posting of this article at http://RealEstateToday.substack.com, where you can also ask me questions.

Federal dollars are siphoned to infrastructure projects in north metro cities

BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A new water treatment plant in Westminster is one the bene ciaries of nearly $6.9 million in infrastructure projects in the north metro area secured recently by U.S. Senator Michael Bennet.

In all, Bennet helped lock down $91.5 million for 78 projects across that state that passed as part of the rst round of federal appropriation bills last week, according to a news release from Bennet’s o ce.

e U.S. Senate is currently working to pass a second round which could include additional funding for other Colorado projects.

e bill includes $959,751 for the water treatment facility being built on Westminster Boulevard just north of 98th Avenue. Crews began working at the site in fall 2023.

A water rate structure the Westminster City Council approved in 2022 underwrites the plant’s construction, according to city ocials.

e new plant, which rests on 40 acres, will reliably provide 15 million gallons of water per day and will allow Westminster to retire portions of the aging Semper Water Treatment facility located o 90th Avenue and Pierce Street, according to the city of Westminster.

e new plant is estimated to cost

$196 million, plus an additional $15 million for ozonation, though it may cost more with in ation, according to the city. Ozonation is a process that injects pure oxygen into the water to kill a wide range of biological contaminants to oxidize metals.

e nearly $1 million in federal funding will allow Westminster’s water plant to implement “critical upgrades (to) ensure safe, clean, and a ordable drinking water for generations to come,” according to Bennet’s news release.

Other projects

e $6.9 million also included funding for:

$1 million for ornton’s Community Center Reconstruction Project.  is project will help fund the demolition and reconstruction of a new community center. Funds will support facility improvements to the walking track and makerspace as well as the outdoor amphitheater.

$850,000 for CDOT’s Quebec Street — 136th Avenue to north of 138th Avenue Widening Design in ornton . is project will fund the design necessary for widening Quebec Street. e design will take into account new bike lanes, a new sidewalk, and new street lighting to create a multimodal corridor that connects to existing infrastructure.

Thornton council wants to stick with tried and true

Thornton’s revamped community center likely to get familiar name

BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When it comes to renaming the revamped ornton Community Center, city council members appear to be opting for what has worked for 40 years.

Most of the council members who spoke up this week during a work session, said they wanted the old name of the ornton Community Center to be its new name when it is unveiled in October 2024.

“I just know the people in that area have a lot of pride in original ornton,” said Justin Martinez, who represents Ward 1 on the city council. “It represents a huge investment in the community.” No o cial vote was taken.

e old ornton Community Center was demolished in 2022 to make way for a “larger and nicer facility” at 2211 Eppinger Boulevard in partnership with Anythink Libraries, according to a sta memo to the city council. e old building was constructed in 1974.

e ornton Community Center moniker came in second in popularity among the three names that ornton and Anythink Library sta members ranked to rebrand the new center, according to a sta report to the city council.

Eleven name options were presented to a review team of city and Anythink sta and then ranked.

e favorite name was ornton 2211 – which incorporates the facility’s address into the name with a “forward-thinking futuristic functionality element,” according to the sta report.

e third most popular name out of a possible 11 was “ e Centre” or “El Centro”. According to the sta report, that name represents… “the point from which an activity is directed; a point, area, person, or thing that is most important or pivotal in relation to an indicated activity, interest or condition,” said the sta report.

ornton Communication’s Department sent three Next Door direct messages to Ward 1 and Ward

2 residents asking for their suggestions for names and contacted the communication directors at Adams 12 and Mapleton school districts for their opinions, according to the sta memo.

e renaming was also promoted at events hosted at the ornton Arts and Cultural Center. e Parks, Recreation and Community Programs Department took advantage of a mailing going out to 480 residents in original ornton. It included a bilingual ier in English and Spanish attached in the mailings, according to the sta report. But council members said the original name is likely the best. “It’s been here 40 years,” Councilmember Roberta Ayala said. “ ornton Community Center is the best option.”

Downtown Center Park plans get a review

City Councilors weigh the cost of the new Downtown Center Park

BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Westminster’s planned Downtown Center Park is getting good reviews on paper, but city councilors warned city planners about the stark reality of cost.

e total construction cost of Center Park, located on the site of the former Westminster Mall, is $10.7 million with a completion date in the fall of 2025, according to a city sta report to the city council.

e city has worked hard to pare the cost of the park, which was budgeted for $13 million in 2014, said Tomas Herrera-Mishler, the city’s parks, recreation, and libraries director, told councilors this week.

“We have really threaded the needle on this one,” Herrera-Mishler said. “We have really worked hard

with the project engineer on this.”

Mayor Nancy McNally said she was wary of the park needing expensive upgrades as time and visitors take its toll on the park.

“I worry about scal sustainability,” McNally said. “I don’t want us to be … creating something where councilors down the road will be saying ‘What the heck were they thinking.’”

She added voters are unlikely to approve more funding to maintain the park’s upkeep.

Councilor Kristine Ireland said the city should consider making parking free for visitors to the park.

“We’d get more people there and more people spending money,” Ireland said.

e city will pay for the park through its General Capital Improvement Fund and its Parks, Open Space and Trails Fund, the sta report states.

e three-acre Center Park was originally conceived in 2014. e city hired DTJ Design in the fall of 2021 to begin the design development process including the overall

site layout and the architecture of any buildings within the park, according to a city sta report presented to the city council.

e park is seen as a place that could host a diverse menu of recreational activities and events including art shows, markets, civic events, concerts and recreational and cultural happenings, sta members say.

“ is park is seen as an important central hub for our downtown,” Herrera-Mishler told the council this week. “It will be the place where people can get out and enjoy the setting and each other’s company.”

Features and amenities

Streetscape enhancements for the

park have been placed along sections of Eaton Street, 89th Ave., Fenton Street, Westminster Boulevard, and Central Avenue. e improvements are phased to coincide with the completion of adjacent developments, sta members said.

e city sta report states that features of the Center Park include family features such as a splash park, a playground tower emulating a large balloon, climbing features, a slide, a family activity court and a re pit area. It also includes a large arti cial turf area that will be home to special events, art shows, food markets, and popup activities. A large, natural turf area will be located near the center of the park to host concerts, free plays and events.

Apprentice of Peace opens new youth center in Denver

BY JO DAVIS JDAVIS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e Apprentice of Peace Youth Organization Center recently opened the doors of a brand-new youth center and headquarters at 2245 Curtis St., Suite 200, in Denver. e youth leadership and wellness organization has been serving the Denver Metro area for the last 10 years.

About 100 people attended the recent grand opening of the center in Denver. e celebration included wellness demonstrations, Tai Chi, Zumba, nunchuck demonstrations, live music from Los Mo-

cochetes and several food trucks to feed the crowd.

“We are excited to open the doors of our new youth center, which represents the culmination of 10 years of dedication and support from our community,” said D.L. Pos Ryant, the executive director of AOPYO. “ is space will provide a safe and welcoming environment for young people to learn, grow and thrive, and will also serve as a behavioral health hub for families in Denver and surrounding areas.”

Ryant was joined by co-founder Ronnie Qi and community organizer Andre Carbonell in cutting the ribbon on the new center. Ac-

cording to Ryant, the partnership with the City of Denver will allow the center to extend space and services to the youth in Aurora, Denver, Je co and surrounding areas.

“As AOPYO celebrates its 10th year of empowering youth and families, the opening of this center marks a signi cant milestone in the organization’s mission to engage the community through a holistic approach, centering mental health and youth leadership development,” Ryant said.

According to the announcement, the new headquarters and youth center will include:

• e “home” base of AOPYO’S

youth programs, community classes and events;

• Multipurpose rooms for workshops, classes, career resources, arts and cultural events; and

• A dedicated wellness area.

According to the announcement, the center will o er youth and families in the Denver metro area, “access to behavioral and mental health counseling and therapeutic services through a partnership with Center for Trauma Resilience and Paragon Behavioral Health. AOPYO plans to o er enrichment programs, language immersion classes and somatic healing workshops.”

Butterfly Pavilion to provide habitats in Boulder

Group inks deal with Biomed Realty for business campuses

BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A new partnership with a Boulder rm with life science connections across the globe will allow Westminster’s Butter y Pavilion to do what it does best – preserve habitats for butter ies, bees, and other critical pollinators, one of the Pavilion’s top scientists said this week.

e new venture is with BioMed Realty, a Blackstone portfolio company that owns and operates high-quality life science real estate comprising 16.8 million square feet, according

to a news release. e partnership calls for the Butter y Pavilion to develop and enhance pollinator habitat in BioMed Realty’s Flatiron Park in Boulder.

BioMed includes properties throughout the United States and the United Kingdom.

BioMed’s partnership with the Butter y Pavilion involves a multi-year project that o cially began with a baseline fall assessment. Pollinatorfriendly habitats will be designed this year and built in four buildings in Flatiron Park, with other buildings planned for 2025 and 2026, the news release states.

e work at the BioMed campus mirrors what the Pavilion’s Environmental and Ecological Services group has been doing for years to develop good, healthy habitats for critical pollinators, said Jamie Schmidt, director

to be pioneers,” Schmidt said.

cultivation of native plants that cater to the speci c needs of local buttery species, bees, and other invertebrates, thereby enhancing biodiversity and build a greater appreciation for these critical species and their habitats,” said Hannah Brown, Environmental and Ecological Services Manager in the news release.

BioMed o cials said it made sense to reach out to the Butter y Pavilion because of its stature in the conservation community. e Pavilion, which attracted 310,000 visitors in 2023, is the rst Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA)-accredited, standalone, non-pro t invertebrate zoo in the world.

Mike Ruhl, Vice President of BioMed Realty said in the news release, “We are leveraging Butter y Pavilion’s scienti c expertise to ensure the protection and conservation of pollinators while supporting greater biodiversity.”

Pollinators, such as honeybees, native bees and butter ies, play a critical role in ecosystem function and are vital to the human production of food and reproduction of native plants, the news release states.

Yet global pollinators are increasingly in peril, mainly from habitat destruction, chemical pollution, parasites, and pathogens which have signi cantly decreased their numbers. Flower-rich pollinator landscapes support greater biodiversity and climate resilience, supporting pollinators and other bene cial animals. By providing a habitat conducive to local pollinators, Flatiron Park contributes to the overall enhance-

ment of biodiversity in the region, the news release states.

Heightened awareness

Flatiron Park’s outdoor areas o er a unique and interactive experience for tenants, fostering a sense of connection with nature. As occupants interact with the pollinator habitats and participate in optional onsite educational classes presented by Butter y Pavilion, they gain a deeper understanding of the signi cance of local biodiversity conservation, the news release states.

is heightened awareness often typically leads to a growing interest in sustainable practices and a strong inclination to engage in community initiatives aimed at environmental preservation, the news release states.

Most residents see only the workings of the inside of the Pavilion while research and conservation work are being conducted all over the world by the facility’s scientists, Schmidt said.

“We bring in so many children through the years and they love looking at the owers and even touching Rosie (the tarantula mascot),” Schmidt said. “We are just working to preserve a world for their children and grandchildren.”

Taxpayer refunds could squeeze state budget

Forecasts leave legislators short of what they expected

BY BRIAN EASON THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado budget writers may be headed back to the drawing board.

Slower population growth and rising fee revenue could trigger upwards of $300 million more state taxpayer refunds than expected in the current budget year, under economic forecasts presented to the Joint Budget Committee in midMarch.

e latest forecasts leave top lawmakers well short of what they expected to be able to spend in next

year’s budget, with less than a week left to nalize the 2024-25 spending plan before it has to be submitted to the General Assembly for consideration.

Under Colorado Legislative Council Sta estimates, the budget committee could need to cut as much as $267 million in spending requests to balance the budget for next scal year. Even under a scenario presented by the governor’s O ce of State Planning and Budgeting, lawmakers could face $150 million gap without major budgetbalancing maneuvers.

State economists present revenue forecasts to the legislature every three months. But the March update takes on special importance, because the estimates determine how much the legislature has to work with when it adopts the an-

nual budget, known as the long bill. A return to normal could be even more challenging than expected — but not because of any economic turbulence.

Instead, the budget will be squeezed primarily by two seemingly minor factors.

One, U.S. Census estimates now say the state’s population grew by less than the state’s demographer had anticipated. at means the state revenue cap under the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights, which tracks in ation and population growth, can only increase by 5.8% this budget year rather than the 6.1% legislative forecasters were expecting.

Two, the state is now expected to collect $185 million more in road usage fees and retail delivery charges this year than last, under the legislative sta estimates.

Taken together, the two forecast changes mean state lawmakers could have to issue larger than expected TABOR refunds to Coloradans next year, leaving the state with fewer General Fund tax dollars to spend on public services.Under the legislative sta forecast, Colorado would have a $1.8 billion TABOR surplus this budget year, while the governor’s o ce expects $2 billion in excess revenue. at would translate to a nearly $400 refund for the average single- ler in 2025 under the current refund formula, which is tiered based on income. is year, all single- lers received $800.

CU, CSU applicants get more time

Universities push enrollment deadlines amid FAFSA delays

BY JASON GONZALES CHALKBEAT COLORADO

Colorado’s two largest universities will push the deadline for students to con rm their enrollment by a month to June 1.

e announcements by the University of Colorado Boulder and Colorado State University Fort Collins follow a di cult Free Applica-

tion for Federal Student Aid season marred by glitches. e problems delayed when families could apply, and colleges haven’t received the information they use to help families determine if a school’snancially right for them.

“We are here to support our students,” said Amy Hutton, CU Boulder associate vice chancellor for enrollment management. “We really want to make sure that they have the support and the time they need to make the right decision.”

e U.S. Department of Education switched to a new FAFSA form this year, but the rollout has been slow and problematic. Families

and students typically can start lling out the FAFSA in October.

But the federal government delayed the application period this year until Dec. 31 to create a new form. e federal government then announced a delay of student records that schools use to send out aid awards to families.

e Better FAFSA, as it is now known, has been easier and faster to complete. Nonetheless, some students, such as those whose parents don’t have Social Security numbers, have had issues nishing the form. e federal government has created a workaround for those families.

Pushing the deadline by a month also will impact students. e tighter schedule gives them less time to complete pre-enrollment tasks, Daniel said.

“It might mean a quicker turnaround for students to be able to complete next steps, like signing up for orientation, registering for classes, and getting their housing,” Daniel said. “It’s just a matter of adjusting and, most importantly, accommodating students and families through the process. at’s our primary focus.”

Statewide, other schools have tried to nd ways to help families navigate this year.

Typically, about 17 million students nationwide ll out the FAFSA; so far, about ve million have completed the form.

Colleges across the state and U.S. began to shift numerous deadlines as FAFSA issues persisted.

Hutton said moving the deadline will give students, especially those who are the rst in their families to go to college or who have higher nancial need, more time to consider their nancial options.

e state’s two premier public universities aren’t alone in announcing more exibility for students amid FAFSA delays. Other Colorado public higher education institutions have already announced changes.

For example, Fort Lewis College already pushed its enrollment deadline to June 1. Other schools, especially regional institutions, traditionally are more exible in admissions, but also have changed other deadlines this year, such as registration or when students need to submit housing applications.

Pushing the con rmation deadline is more consequential for larger schools such as CU Boulder and CSU Fort Collins because they compete for a more selective pool of students.

Heather Daniel, CSU Fort Collins director of admissions, said the May 1 enrollment deadline has been like a “national holiday” when students announce where they planned to attend college. Schools use the enrollment con rmation deadline as a way to understand the size of the next year’s incoming freshmen, which helps them plan.

Metropolitan State University of Denver, which o ers more exible enrollment, has told students it will work with them through FAFSA challenges.

Vaughn Toland, MSU Denver chief enrollment o cer, said many of the school’s students apply well into the summer. e school has extended nancial aid eligibility deadlines.

“We’re gonna get this gured out and we’re here to support you,” Toland said.

e school, which is the most diverse Colorado institution and has a high number of students who are the rst to go to college, has tried to communicate it will be exible if students run into individual issues.

Kerline Eglaus, MSU Denver executive director of nancial aid and scholarships, said she wants students to know they won’t get left behind because many deadlines are uid.

“And that’s given them some peace of mind,” she said.

But students should attempt to ll out the FAFSA, school leaders said.

e form is the only way students can truly understand their nancial options for school, Hutton said.

“I always recommend students ll out the FAFSA and see what aid is available to them so they can make an informed decision about where they want to attend and their ability to succeed when they do,” Hutton said.

Westminster o -leash dog park deserves a compromise VOICES

There are at least three things which are sacred with the public when you start nagling with change - how to handle their trash, anything pertaining to their dogs and closing your child’s public schools.

Well, Westminster o cials hit an active bee hive when they announced plans to dramatically reduce the o -leash acreage at the Westminster Hills Dog Park located at 100th Avenue and Simms Street. A recent public information meeting drew 300 people, an on-line petition to keep the property “completely” o -leash generated more than 5,400 signatures and over 1,000 emails to city o cials about the issue at hand are clear indicators of the degree of concern and emotion from an interested public.

Basically, you have people with their dogs versus ecological concerns about the future of the land in question. With one million dog visits per year and 350,000 pounds of dog poop to haul out annually, there are legitimate concerns about the degradation of the short grass prairie which once was there.

Advisory group to guide dog park recommendations

ere is no easy solution to this issue that will serve all parties concerned. You can see and agree with arguments from both sides.

e city was correct to initiate action to address the problems, which includes parking at the site. e consultant had recommended reducing the 420 acre o -leash section to under 40 acres. is simply is not realistic.

City sta announced that an advisory group is being formed to evaluate the consultant’s report that initiated the whole brouhaha and to develop options to preserve the open space.

A “diverse group” of residents representing various community interests and professional backgrounds, plus technical experts and representatives from the city’s Parks, Recreation, Libraries and Open Space Advisory Board” will recommend to city council the best alternative(s) by this summer. March 11th was

CROSS CURRENTS

the deadline to apply for the advisory group.

e only way this issue will e ectively get settled is a good old fashion compromise.

While I am not an ecological scientist, I would suggest carving out 200 acres divided into two 100-acre segments. ey would be rotated back and forth within the 200 acres on some logical sequence with the remaining 220 acres protected as city open space.

While the numbers are arbitrary, the basic idea is what should be given consideration. Like I said, it’s a battle between dogs and their owners and ecological concerns along with parking problems. It will be a real emotional battle all the way including city council’s decision.

Who has the popcorn concession?

Parking no concern for state housing bill

I have brie y mentioned a couple of times this legislative session that the “A ordable Housing” package includes an onerous bill (HB241304) which, if successful, would usurp local o -street parking requirements on new developments or re-developments and allow the developer to decide how much ostreet parking would be built.

While I would acknowledge that some local governments are excessive in their parking requirements, the legislature should not throw the baby out with the bath water.

Creating some general parking standards by the state would be workable as long as the nal decisions on parking are with the local governing body, after the a ected neighborhood has weighed in.

Of course, this whole “push” is to get more people using public transit to get to work, go shopping, and go to sporting and cultural events or go visit grandma. First, RTD is not adequately ramped up to ful ll such a demand and most likely will not be in the future. Financially, they can-

not even deliver on their remaining promises on FasTracks to get the Northwest Rail Line from Westminster to Boulder to Longmont built and operating. Plus, they have been nancially unable to keep up with the urban sprawl which suburban cities in all directions have allowed to take place.

What makes legislators and the governor think that RTD can deliver the level of service which they would be forcing people into?

Secondly, people love their vehicles and convenience especially here in the west. Enough said.

Leaving the number of parking stalls to the whim of developers would lead to shortages of o -street parking for apartment complexes, condo developments as well as commercial and retail developments. is bill is BAD public policy and should be defeated!

Is Downtown Center Park worth $10.17 million?

e design on the three-acre Center Park in the Downtown Westminster development has been touted as the “showcase” piece of the entire Downtown Plan- but do the math; this will cost more than $3.3 million per acre!

Now, it’s time to determine if the projected $10.17 million cost musters up, is really worth it and is the priority for this amount of taxpayers’ dollars. Here’s the lead-in written by sta —”Center Park will be the centerpiece of the Downtown, providing residents from across the city a place to go for entertainment, recreation and enjoyment. e concept of Center Park is simple: provide exible, multi-use spaces that support di ering functions and attractive amenities working in harmony to create a unique, public space.”

at is a mouth full.

Try to visualize center park

Here are most of the elements described in the council agenda memo to give you a avor of what all is included; again on only three acres.

“Park’s main entrance is on southwest corner directly across from the Plaza and future Market Hall. From here, is the major of family activ-

ity zones--splash park, playground tower emulating a large balloon, climbing features, re pit and more. A large arti cial turf area will accommodate special events, art shows, food markets etc. Arti cial ice can be produced in the winter for skating. At center edge of the park is a washroom facility with storage. A fenced dog amenity area is located along Eaton Street with shade and seating for social gatherings. roughout the park will be well designed lighting and sound system. Around the perimeter, are sitting and lounging areas catering to lunches, small groups and gatherings. At the center of the park is a large natural turf area that will host concerts, free play and events. ere will be swinging benches. e park is surrounded by lush landscape and trees contributing to this outdoor oasis.”

Let’s not forget there are neighborhood parks yet to be built, existing parks and facilities to update or replace, a recreation center to be built in the northern part of the city and the need to reduce the amount of Kentucky blue grass in too many existing parks.

Did city council weigh the priorities when considering spending $10.17 million at the New Downtown?

State legislators have pulled the shades

How disappointing it was that Governor Polis failed to veto the legislature’s own desire to “pull the shade down” on meetings and communications among legislators.

SB24-157 has been approved and will become law, exempting legislators from some parts of Colorado’s open-meeting law. Shame on them! How convenient for our lawmakers to simply pass a bill exempting them in how they can now communicate with each other or meet with each other without the public being aware.

Senate President Steve Fenberg and House Speaker Julie McCluskie explained this new law is “a way to update the open-meetings law and ensure its workability inside the

Plotting a Pueblo beyond coal

It may surprise many residents in Aspen and Vail and their respective valleys that they own a piece of a coal plant. Literally.

Customers of Holy Cross Energy also own the electrical cooperative. Holy Cross, in turn, owns 8% of Comanche 3, the coal plant in Pueblo that is to close by 2031. Holy Cross pays property taxes for the plant but consigns its share of the output to a third party.

What obligations do Holy Cross — or the rest of Coloradans, for that matter — have to leave Pueblo economically whole in this energy transition? When Colorado legislators adopted decarbonization goals in 2019, they also created the O ce of Just Transition. Coal workers and communities, they said, needed assistance in this energy transition.

Still unclear is what exactly just transition means. It does involve money, though.

Comanche 3 and two older coalunits, one of which is already closed, have delivered 16.1% of the property taxes for schools, re ghters and other governmental services in Pueblo County. Closing all three units reduces Colorado’s greenhouse gas emissions 20.5%.

Nuclear power could replace Comanche 3’s lost generation and actually add jobs and tax base. Xcel Energy, which owns two-thirds of Comanche 3, has paid Pueblo County and its various library, re and other jurisdictions about $25 million a year in property taxes. Holy

Groups including Colorado Freedom of Information Coalition are concerned that the law can go too far in tweaking transparency laws whereby groups can meet in informal groups and communicate electronically. e whole idea of this bill came from the litigation brought by House Representative Bob Marshall and Elisabeth Epps who sued the House and its leadership last year alleging repeated vio-

Cross pays $1.3 million and CORE Electrical Cooperative, the third owner, $4.6 million. e total, in 2021, was $31 million.

An advanced nuclear plant would deliver $95 million in property taxes, according to a task force appointed by Xcel Energy, plus 300 jobs, compared to the 77 that will be lost when Comanche 3 closes, and at wages of up to $200,000 a year.

e task force, relying primarily upon experts supplied by Xcel, concluded that a new natural gas plant combined with carbon capture and sequestration was the next best but much inferior option.

As for solar, Pueblo County already has oodles of it—and more will come. But the task force correctly noted the economic bene ts of solar to Pueblo can never replace those of a big coal- red power plant. Hydrogen and various energy storage technologies also come up short.

Xcel itself has not said what it wants to do. e company must submit what is called a Just Transition electric resource plan to state regulators by June 1. e plan is supposed to identify what new electric generation could be cost-e ectively placed in Pueblo County.

e new law does not serve the public’s interest. It further allows “hush hush” conversations and emails which the public has a right to know.

to eliminate any remnants of leavened bread, or chametz, to prepare for Passover. Ancient Catholic tradition dedicates the three days after Palm Sunday to a comprehensive home cleaning in preparation for Easter.

Deep cleaning the house is a tradition leading up to the Lunar New Year, sometimes known as the Spring Festival in China, to sweep out disease and bad luck before the new year.

And, in the weeks leading up to the Persian or Iranian New Year, Nowruz — which falls on the spring equinox — families practice a deep-cleaning tradition called kh ne-tak n . Translated to English, the practice is called “shaking the house” and involves more than just physical bene ts.

“Just as one cleans one’s place of residence from dirt and debris, one should also clean the inner self from all impurities to prepare for a better life in the New Year,” journalist Leila Imeni wrote in Iran Daily.

In the eyes of health and cleaning experts, spring can be a great time to cleanse and declutter your spaces — both physical and mental — and set yourself up for a great season ahead.

Clean space, happy mind

Local cleaning service provider Lindsay Buck said her team sees an increase in demand in the springtime. She owns Bucket & Shine, which provides one-time and recurring cleaning services to homes in the northwest Denver metro area.

“We de nitely see an uptick in the one-time deep cleanings” in the spring, she said.

Buck said she thinks people want their houses clean after they’ve been “cooped up” inside them all winter. She said having a clean home can also improve mental health, which people might desire as the new season begins.

“A clean space equals a happy mind,” she said. “When you walk into a room that’s all cluttered … it makes you feel a little bit overwhelmed, closedin, anxious.”

A writer from the 19th century, Susan Fenimore Cooper, agreed about this freshening bene t of “the great spring house cleaning.”

SPRING CLEANING YOUR HOME, HEALTH AND HEART

Local experts explain physical, mental and emotional benefits of cleaning as springtime arrives

BY NINA JOSS NJOSS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As the sun comes out and plants begin to bloom, springtime brings symbols of rebirth and a fresh start. For many, this means opening the windows

and getting to work dusting, scrubbing, wiping and vacuuming their homes.

With ties to several cultural and religious traditions, spring cleaning provides an opportunity for people to cleanse and declutter.

In Jewish custom, families clean their homes

In her 1850 novel “Rural Hours,” she described the spring cleaning process, which some researchers say was common in those days to rid homes of dust and grime from a long winter. Wood and coal-burning stoves were common, which left layers of lth to be cleaned come spring.

“Topsy-turvy is the order of the day,” Cooper wrote, describing curtains and carpets hanging out of doors, beds in the hallway, chairs upside down and the ceiling “in possession of the whitewash brush.”

But despite calling house cleaning one of “the necessary evils of life,” Cooper highlighted its mental reward.

“It must be confessed, however, that after the great turmoil is over — when the week, or fortnight, or three weeks of scrubbing, scouring, drenching are passed, there is a moment of delightful repose in a family,” she wrote. “ ere is a refreshing consciousness that all is sweet and clean from garret to cellar; there is a purity in the neighborhood.”

SPRING CLEANING

Cooper’s experience is backed by experts, like Dr. Jaya Kumar, the chief medical o cer at Swedish Medical Center, who says cleaning can have a positive impact on one’s mental health.

Kumar said some studies have shown that having a clean space can help reduce anxiety and stress, improve concentration and make people sleep better.

“For some people, the act of cleaning helps them destress,” she added. “It’s like a focused work — when doing something, it helps them destress and let go of other thoughts.”

Health and cleanliness

Kumar said cleaning also provides physical health bene ts, especially in the spring.

“Our take on cleaning is that it shouldn’t be bad for you, or for your house or for the planet,” she said. “All of our household cleansers and our laundry detergents, dish soaps and everything else you need to keep a tidy home fall into that.

ey don’t have nasty ingredients, they’re not going to cause you cancer, they’re not going to kill the sh.”

Grolbert sells many cleaners, including singleingredient cleaners like vinegar, baking soda and citric acid, in customizable quantities so people can re ll containers to reduce the use of plastic. She also sells reusable cleaning tools to replace single-use sponges and paper towels.

Cleaning the mind and heart

Beyond physical cleaning, some say springtime o ers an opportunity for re ection and self-care.

“You’ve accumulated dust, mold, mildew and dander all over your house because you haven’t ventilated much — everything is closed during winter,” she said. “All of that kind of piles up and causes allergies, asthma and respiratory problems, and that process of cleaning would help

Having a lot of clutter in the house can also create opportunities for accidents, Kumar said, so picking up and organizing one’s home can keep

“We, at the hospital, really see a lot of elderly falls,” she said. “I can’t tell you enough how important it is to have your house decluttered when you have elderly (individuals) around.”

Kumar said the trauma center at Swedish Medical Center receives many older patients su ering hip fractures from trip-induced falls. Reducing clutter also reduces opportunities for kids to ingest or choke on objects, she said.

Beyond eliminating dust and clutter, Kumar said cleaning is important to maintain a germfree environment.

JaLisa Williams, a social worker, clinician and Metro State University of Denver professor, said a lot of people notice that their homes get messier when there is a lot on their minds. is shows how our internal experience can be replicated in our external environments, she said.

e spring re ects the start of the new year in many cultures, Williams said, including communities that follow the astrological calendar. As the new year begins, it’s a good time to re ect on and cleanse mental and emotional spaces, she said.

“We’re going into this new year, but you still have a lot of old mental and emotional baggage,” she said. “So, how do you actually create a full balance, so you can come in actually clean and ready to enter the new year and to be lled with other things?”

Williams recommends rest as one way to “clean” the internal space.

“If our brains are always going, our bodies are always trying to go, we are unable to actually tap into what is happening in our internal space,” she said.

Mindfulness practices like yoga, meditation tai chi and walking are also great ways to empty the mind and cultivate inner peace to approach change and hardship, she said.

“Just having those high-touch surface areas clean by wiping away (germs) will be helpful,” she said, especially with the u, RSV and COVID going around.

e cleaning process also requires movement, which can be good exercise and boost endorphins, Kumar said.

“If you are doing rigorous cleaning, like mopping, vacuuming — even if you do it for 30 minutes, you’ve burnt around 100 calories,” she said.

When cleaning, Kumar said it is important to be careful about what products a person uses. Some cleaning agents can cause nose and throat irritation or respiratory problems, she said.

People can check the safety of products on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s “Safer Choice” website, she said. Also, it’s important to ventilate while cleaning.

Some shops, like Re llary in Parker, center their business around providing clean products that are non-carcinogenic and not bad for the planet. Adrienne Grolbert started the low-waste, re ll company in 2022, where she sells household and cosmetic cleaners.

“I think self-care has been a hot topic concept for the last few years, and I think (we’ve) wrapped it up into facials and vacation,” she said. “But in reality, that self-care is very deep work. When we are thinking about how can we integrate mindfulness, it’s because we’re trying to create this sense of peace or empowerment, so then we can actually navigate the things that are pressuring us.”

Cultivating a community you care about — and leaning on it — is another way to clean your inner self, Williams said.

“Are these people bringing out the best in me?

Am I bringing out the best in them?” she said.

In some cases, cultivating a “clean” community for a person could mean having hard conversations, letting relationships go or showing appreciation, Williams added.

For those who choose to clean their homes this spring, Williams said to take it space by space, room by room, be gentle with yourself and lean on community members for support if needed.

Ring makers, jewelry crafters have classes, supplies available

BY ELISABETH SLAY ESLAY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Learning a new hobby can be overwhelming, but many businesses around metro Denver make it fun and easy to dive into the world of metalsmithing.

Metalsmithing is an art form where creators can learn to shape silver, gold, copper or other metals into unique pieces of jewelry.

e trade requires an assortment of tools and stones, and local business Stryker Studio provides classes where people can select a treasured stone and transform it into a beloved piece of jewelry.

Stryker Studio: A beginner’s first step

Owned and operated by 21-yearold Lydia Stryker, the studio just opened at the beginning of February.

“As soon as you walk through the door, we’ll kind of show you our menu and show you the di erent options of things you can make,” Stryker said.

She said customers can then select what type of jewelry piece they want to make, including rings, pendants, bolo ties or bracelets.

“After that, you come to our gem table where you get to pick out one of the gems,” Stryker said. “I always

tell everyone that’s the most di cult part of the entire journey, is picking what type of stone you want to use as the center stone for your entire creation.”

Once people select their gems, then Stryker and her colleagues will walk everyone through what details will make their pieces custom and then help them construct the piece.

“We’ll show you the di erent bezel options, band and any details. We o er a bunch of things that will just make your creations 100% your own,” she said. “From there, we jump right into creating.”

Stryker said rings are the most popular pieces made in her classes.  e creation process of a ring includes wrapping the stone with bezel wire, soldering the wire closed, soldering the wire on to the back plate, ling and grinding excess metal, sizing the band, shaping the band, soldering the bezel to the band, polishing the piece and nally setting the stone.

Stryker said the instructors will help with all of these steps until people have “jewelry made for every adventure.”

“You get to make it from start to nish and watch your own creation come to life,” Stryker said.

Stryker began silversmithing in an after-school program and fell in love

with it.

She didn’t pursue it right away as she was heading to college, but she began creating permanent jewelry pieces in school.

“I always felt entrepreneurial in spirit, so I did that for about two years,” Stryker said. “At that point I was searching for what I wanted to do next, and the introduction back into jewelry was huge.”

On a family trip to ailand, Stryker said she stumbled upon a silversmithing workshop, which would become the inspiration for her business model.

“It kind of opened up this whole world of using jewelry as entertainment and providing an experience,” Stryker said.

Stryker Studio o ers daily classes and Stryker said since opening on Feb. 6, her business has been booked pretty solid.

“We’re already growing more than I could’ve ever imagined,” Stryker said.

Stryker is excited and proud of what she’s made, from the literal creations to the sta she’s put together.

Stryker there aren’t a lot of studios like hers in Denver but there are other places in Colorado with a similar business model.

“Our studio, we call it a maker space. It’s basically for people who have no experience at all in metalsmithing, or they’re professionals and they’re looking to learn a new technique,” Brown said.

Located at 8392 S. Continental Divide Road in Je erson County near Littleton, Unit 104, Brown said Denver Jewelry Studio is open daily, except on Wednesday, from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Brown said for those looking to venture into metalsmithing, the studio recommends that people take the 30-hour Metalsmithing 1 course and then go from there. She said information on classes can be found on the studio’s website.

She said people will learn the basics including sawing techniques, ling, hammering and setting stones.

“For us, teaching the beginning students all of these techniques, they don’t have to buy a lot of equipment to get started at home and they can really express their creativity,” Brown said.

Denver Jewelry Studio also o ers Open Studio, where artisans can pay a monthly fee and come to the studio whenever they need to utilize tools.

Stone Shop Jewelers Supply: A supplier

“I like that with having other types of this business model, so many people are getting exposed to silversmithing because it’s such a unique and fun art form,” Stryker said.

Going forward, Stryker said she hopes to expand and open other locations.

“I think in general in the world, people are looking for more ways to express and ways to get out of the house, and I think it’s a concept that can expand in a lot of di erent directions that I would love to explore in the future,” Stryker said.

e studio is located at 1513 Boulder St. in Denver.

Denver Jewelry Studio: A place to learn

e Denver Jewelry Studio offers beginner classes and more advanced classes in di erent techniques for those who wish to go beyond the basics of silversmithing.

e various levels of classes are taught by di erent instructors, and the studio is managed carefully by owner Judy Brown.

Stone Shop Jewelers Supply, a shop in Lakewood, is a local supplier of stones and silversmithing tools.

Owned by Lakewood local Courtney Koster, Stone Shop o ers a variety of gems and cabochons, or polished stones, for people to use in their jewelry designs.  ese stones include opal, variscite, tourmaline, amethyst and other colorful rocks.

Koster opened the store at 8539 W. Colfax Ave. about 14 years ago.

“We like to really service the jewelry industry and the little mom-andpop shops to even the out-of-town gem show clientele,” Koster said.

Additionally, Koster said the Stone Shop provides various vintage and current tools including hammers, mandrels, wires, sheet metal and more.

“We have the Mini Metalsmithing Museum and Library, and we’ve got a bunch of the old tools from the last 100-plus years,” Koster said.

Spring arrives with fun for all interests

Spring is an interesting season here in Colorado — you’re never entirely sure what you’re going to get. It could be the biggest blizzard of the year, days and days of rain, or nothing but blue skies smiling at me, as the song goes.

With that in mind, my recommendations for welcoming spring tend to lean towards the indoors, just to be safe, but it comes with a caveat — any time you have the opportunity to enjoy a beautiful spring day in Colorado, I suggest you take it.

Bill could help transfer students

Plan would aim for less loss of credit hours

BY JASON GONZALES CHALKBEAT COLORADO

Two years into college during the pandemic, Larry Blackshear wanted a little bit of normalcy.

Hoping a move closer to home would help, he decided to transfer in 2022 from Colorado State University Pueblo to the University of Colorado Denver — a 15-minute drive from where he grew up in Aurora.

But even though he wanted to pursue the same Spanish and political science degrees he studied in Pueblo, not all of his credits transferred with him. Of the 82 credits he had earned, only 64 were accepted at the Denver university.

“If CU Denver had accepted my credits,” Blackshear, 23, said, “I’d be preparing to graduate at the end of this (school) year.”

Instead, he’s likely a year and a half away from earning his degree. And, while he’s not sure of the exact amount, he estimates he’s spent thousands of dollars trying to catch up.

Colorado was a pioneer in working to remove such obstacles with transfers, but students statewide still run into problems when they try to switch between public colleges, pointing to the need to update rules to re ect changes in the way students earn credits and progress through college.

State leaders hope new legislation will provide that update, so that students like Blackshear don’t lose time, money and credits when they decide to change schools.

Senate Bill 164 includes three dif-

ferent parts to bolster the state’s transfer system. e bill is a priority of the Colorado Department of Higher Education and is sponsored by a bipartisan group of lawmakers.

e bill would update the state’s student bill of rights — a list that says what students can expect from colleges — for the rst time since 2008. e updates would include a requirement that schools tell students whether their credits transfer and what a transfer to another school entails. ey would also have to clarify that students have the right to appeal if an institution decides their credits won’t transfer, and the legislation lays out a process for an appeal.

e bill would require colleges to give students information about college costs, including fees and other expenses.

And the bill would require a state report on transfer outcomes, such as how many students transfer statewide and how transfer credits were applied by colleges toward a student’s transcript.

Colorado’s pioneering transfer policies falling short

Colorado was an early adopter of common course numbering, which standardizes certain class numbers across colleges and universities, so that they’re more easily recognized by the receiving college and the credits transfer seamlessly.

e state also has other policies for transfer students, such as agreements between two-year and fouryear colleges and universities that help students stay on track to earning a degree.

But not all Colorado colleges have such agreements, especially when students transfer between four-year universities. And the system hasn’t evolved fast enough to keep up with

changes over the past decade, said Kim Poast, the Colorado higher education department’s chief student success and academic a airs o cer.

More students are taking college courses in high school, and the state has more workforce training programs that teach college-level skills. State leaders have also recognized that students move between colleges and universities in ways not accounted for within the current system, which is built around the idea that most students would move from community college to a four-year university. Students take much more winding paths than that and can end up attending multiple universities before they graduate, Poast said.

Colorado planning aid for schools enrolling migrant students

Statewide groups have also taken notice of issues with the state’s transfer system, especially as national data has shown more than a third of all students transfer. Colorado’s e Attainment Network recently released policy suggestions for the state to update its transfer policies, such as ensuring certain credits transfer into programs and collecting data on how the system works.

Poast said the state worked with two national organizations to create recommendations for updates, some of which are re ected in the new legislation.

For Blackshear, the changes can’t come fast enough. He’s not sure when he will graduate. And nancial aid he once relied on has run dry, meaning he has to nd more money for college.

He plans to testify in support of the bill, because he doesn’t want other students to run into the same issues he has faced. He hopes his testimony can show that the transfer system needs updates to help students who are falling through the cracks, most of whom are students of color and the rst in their family to go to college, he said.

“I hope that my story is able to alert students about the challenges and perils of transferring from institution to institution without having all of the knowledge that they need to be successful,” he said. “And I hope it can show just how detrimental the transfer processes are.”

Colorado may cut back on free student meals

BY YESENIA ROBLES CHALKBEAT COLORADO

In the rst year that Colorado is paying districts to give students free meals at school, more kids are eating than expected.

at has left the program $56.1 million short this year. And lawmakers are working on how to close the funding gap.

Colorado voters in 2022 supported creating limits on tax deductions for the state’s highest earners to fund free school meals for all students. Advocates said that there were families in Colorado who were struggling nancially even though they didn’t qualify for subsidized meals under federal poverty guidelines.

In calculating the cost of the program, analysts expected that about 25% more children would eat a

school meal. Instead, schools this year have seen a more than 35% increase in breakfast participation, and a more than 31% increase for lunch compared with last year.

e higher-than-expected participation — and program cost — is due largely to students who previously had to pay for a school meal. In most cases, the federal government doesn’t reimburse the districts for any part of those children’s meals, leaving the state to cover those costs alone.

e state legislature’s Joint Budget Committee this week agreed to ll the $56.1 million gap this year. About $31.5 million can be covered with additional revenue that has come in from the new tax provision, but the rest will likely need to come from the state’s general fund.

Without any changes to the meal program, state analysts predict Colo-

rado will come up short by $27.8 million next year.

In addition to the universal free school meals, voters approved three grant programs that were supposed to be rolled out in the coming school years. e grants were meant to help districts with things like buying Colorado-grown food for meals, providing stipends for kitchen employees, and paying for training or equipment.

For now, those grant programs will be on hold.

Lawmakers on the Joint Budget Committee debated this week over whether they had a responsibility to keep the voter-approved program going, regardless of the additional cost to the state.

Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyer, a Brighton Republican, said that cost calculations have changed and the state has to deal with that.

“All of these warnings were given to us before, and we ignored them,” she said.

Reasons to have a premarital agreement

Did you know that the most popular month to propose, not only in the U.S. but worldwide, is December according to theknot.com (2019) followed by February and August? What is the most popular month to get married? October, followed by September in second place, according to theknot. com (2023). Now that December is over, these newly engaged couples are beginning to think of everything that needs to be done in order to plan a wedding: the location, the guest list, the reception, the invitations, the wedding dress and the honeymoon. But don’t forget the prenuptial agreement. It may not be the most sexy or glamorous topic to discuss, but it could be the most important conversation throughout the entire wedding planning process.

GUEST COLUMN

ments as well as marital agreements are controlled by the Uniform Premarital and Marital Agreements Act effective July 1, 2014, which sets forth the formation requirements, when the agreement is e ective, what are unenforceable terms, the right of each party to be represented by an attorney and who pays for the attorney, and the determination of adequate nancial disclosure.

• Either party has children from a previous relationship

• A party owns a business or is involved in a family-run business

• Either party has signi cant assets that they want to protect

• One party is concerned about the other party’s debt

• A party is giving up a lucrative career to get married

A premarital agreement is not necessary in all situations; however, if any of the following scenarios apply, you probably need a premarital agreement:

I don’t view premarital agreements as negative or that having one leads to divorce, rather I view a premarital agreement as a positive in which the parties discuss today while they are in love, not angry or driven by emotion to jointly make the rules that will control tomorrow if the marriage does come to an end.

e conversation may be uncomfortable or may be a delicate situation indicating lack of trust. However, the conversation should be

addressed earlier rather than later. Each party needs ample time to discuss the subject at length, review the other party’s nancial disclosures, and obtain legal counsel in order to reach an understanding together. It is never a good idea to take a lastminute approach in the preparation of a premarital agreement because that could give the appearance of one party trying to coerce the other to sign the agreement without adequate time thereby making the agreement null and void.

Having a premarital agreement can be a powerful tool not only in the divorce process if it comes to that but it can be a powerful tool in the estate planning strategy of each spouse. Having a formal agreement will allow each party to maintain control

e task force report warns against just transition being an “empty slogan.” Fair enough. But does just transition mean disregarding cost and safety considerations?

Nuclear has a reputation for costly overruns. Recent experiences in the United States have not helped. Two reactors in Georgia came in at $35 billion, double original estimates. In Idaho, the plug was pulled recently on another plant with a rising price tag. China is building lots of nuclear reactors, owing partly to lower labor costs and fewer regulations.

Lacking consensus

Pueblo lacks consensus about its future. at was clear during a recent town hall in Pueblo attended by more than 600 people. Included were about 100 people wearing yellow-green T-

shirts that identi ed the wearers as members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers — and supporters of nuclear energy!

Opponents included speakers who objected to storing radioactive wastes in Pueblo. One warned of impaired property values within 10 miles of the plant, including all of Pueblo.

Cost is the idea’s greatest vulnerability. An individual who reported 44 years experience in nuclear, rst in submarines and then a nuclear power plant, waved away safety concerns. Cost, though, was a problem.

Cost was also cited by a visitor from Boulder. She con dently predicted that state regulators charged with looking after the interests of Xcel customers would reject the idea. Pueblo itself is served by another utility, Black Hills Energy.

Her observation was not welcomed and her conclusion rejected by some because of where she’s from. But Xcel also delivers electricity to Alamosa and Sterling, Breckenridge and Ri e,

Greeley and Grand Junction. Cost matters in all those places.

Which leaves us with the question of what will Xcel propose in June? Informed speculation suggests another natural gas plant. e technology is proven. e carbon capture component still needs work, though.

Xcel has agreed to pay $15.9 million annually in property taxes on the idled coal plant through 2040, a decade after it closes. (Holy Cross has not been asked, a spokeswoman said).

What could work for Pueblo and its workers? I suspect it may somehow lie in Front Range passenger rail and continued investment by Pueblo in its own community amenities. It has water and it has land.

Nuclear energy may eventually solve its cost and waste problems. It has not yet.

SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

A well-known gure in the Colorado high school coaching and volunteer ranks has passed away after an illness. Virginia Lorbeer, who helped spirit become a sanctioned sport in the 1990s, was 82.

Lorbeer coached the rst 5A state championship squad at Montbello High School when the meet was for cheerleading only. e Colorado High School Activities Association said through her e orts, spirit became sanctioned in 1991, the same year that Standley Lake High School won the state poms title. She was the coach for the Gators at the time.

Peers took to social media with words of praise and thanks as news of Lorbeer’s passing on March 15 spread.

One said, “She was a coach who epitomized what it means to be a coach. Not just of her own team, but of everyone she met. She was so thoughtful, encouraging, and steadfast. She met everyone with kindness and that beaming smile.”

She was born May 31, 1941, in Denver, to Earl C. and Alice L. (Schlemeyer) Lorbeer. She earned a bachelor of science degree in education and English from Fort Hays State in Kansas in 1963 and a master of arts in secondary school administration from the University of Colorado in 1973. Lorbeer did post-grad work at the University of

Spirit coach and volunteer Virginia Lorbeer dies

Northern Colorado from 1977 to 1979.

Teaching, coaching in her DNA

Lorbeer was a teacher of business education and a sponsor of the school pep club and cheerleaders at Manual High School from 1964 to 1981. She moved over to Montbello High School, where she taught business education and was the director of student activities for the school. She also spent time as a passenger relations agent for Trans World Airways at the old Stapleton Airport.

According to the Canon City Record, Lorbeer’s name adorns a coaching scholarship handed out at the state spirit tournament each year. e scholarship honors a spirit coach “whose dedication to their program and support of school and community sets them apart from others in the sport,” the Record reported in 2022.

She was on the board of the Colorado High School Coaches Association, which inducted her into its hall of fame shortly before Lorbeer died. She received the organization’s Don DesCombes Award for distinguished service in 2022. e Colorado High School Activities Association inducted her into its hall of fame in 2000.

Helping where help was needed

Volunteering was part of Lorbeer’s history with CHSAA as well. She volunteered at the state basket-

ball tournament from 1973 until last year. She was in charge of the volunteers who ran the statistics program.

“She rotated games among the (stat) teams,” said veteran basketball and football o cial Mike Contreraz. “If you worked the semi nals one year, you worked the title game the next year. I enjoyed working for and working with her.”

Rick Hergenreder, a retired veteran basketball o cial in Colorado, worked with Lorbeer at the state high-school basketball tournament – “close to 30 years,” he said.

“She was always very organized and ready to go and one of the last to leave,” Hergenreder said. “I also worked with her at the state track meet. She worked the gate checking in athletics and always had a smile for all those who came through.”

For her volunteer e orts, CHSAA presented Lorbeer with its Distinguished Service Award in 1995.

“She was very concerned that the individual did the job right,” Contreraz said. He and Lorbeer worked the state tournament for close to 30 years. “She didn’t come down hard. She pointed out the concern and encouraged you not to make the same mistake.”

Not just a figure, but a friend

Outside the world of poms, volunteer work and cheerleading, she was a friend.

“From the rst day I met you, I

felt like I had been in your life as long as I can remember,” said Skyview High School girls basketball coach Chris Kemm. “Your support, your genuine being, and genuine love and support. I will miss all the cards and notes you leave behind every event, and your constant support that only a coach knows how to give.”

“She was a very kind, very caring person,” Contreraz said. “She was an easy person to talk to, and it was easy to get to like her. She had a soft voice. You had to strain your ears to hear her.”

Funeral services are pending through Keithley Funeral Homes and Crematory-Brock’s Chapel in Hays.

“You fought so valiantly to be there for everyone, and there is no telling how far your reach went,” Kemm said. “Heaven needed a new coach to coach the coaches. And boy, heaven got the best one.”

“She volunteered at CHSAA for many state championships,” Hergenreder said. “She seemed to have endless energy with everything she did. I will miss seeing her this year at track.”

“She was more concerned that you did everything right for your bene t,” Contreraz said. “If you did it right and worked hard, it was for you. It was the only way you were going to be successful. She had a big heart, and she cared about you. at’s what she wanted.”

Dalton Knecht, former Prairie View basketball star, named SEC Player of the Year

Ahead of March Madness, perhaps the best player in men’s college basketball this season, of course, is

from the Colorado Community Media area.

He’s Dalton Knecht, and before he was named the Player of the Year in the Southeastern Conference (SEC), he was dominating Colorado courts at Prairie View High School in Henderson.

Now at Tennessee, Knecht has his Volunteers sitting pretty as a No. 2 seed in the Midwest pool of the NCAA Tournament. Countless brackets have Tennessee primed for

a deep run in the tourney. Knect is the main reason.

e fth-year senior transferred to Tennessee after two seasons at the University of Northern Colorado. e move was a splash for the Volunteers, who now enjoy over 21 points per game at a 46.5% eld goal percentage from Knecht.

At Prairie View High School, Knecht averaged 21 points and 6.5 rebounds as a senior in 2018-19.

e 6-foot-6 guard has had mas-

sive games throughout the 2023-24 season, including:

Vail Resorts says skier visits down

Numbers fall at 37 ski areas in North America

BY JASON BLEVINS THE COLORADO SUN

Skier visits are down 9.7% at Vail Resorts’ 37 North American ski areas so far this winter, with snowfall 42% lower than the start of the previous 2022-23 winter, when the company reported a record 17.2 million visits.

Vail Resorts CEO Kirsten Lynch called the start of the season “incredibly challenging,” but said improved snowfall — and a higher-than-usual percentage of the 2.4 million skiers who have already bought Epic passes and lift tickets but not used them — indicates visitation will rebound.

Despite the challenges with snow and declining visitation, Vail Resorts reported an annual 7.7% increase in earnings for the three months that ended on Jan. 31. e company reported $1.1 billion in revenue for those three months, a slight decrease from the previous season.  e stability of earnings and a small drop in revenues after a slow start to the season and declining visits re ects Vail Resorts’ overarching strategy to harvest 75% of its lift-ticket revenue from skiers who buy long before the snow falls. Before the emergence and proliferation of advanced purchase season passes and lift tickets in the late 2000s, a poor snow year and downturn in skier numbers would have dealt blows to bottom lines.

e Vail Resorts second-quarter report showed fewer skiers spending more on lessons, dining and gear at the company’s retail and rental stores. ( e company does not break out visitation or spending by individual resorts or even by state or region.)

“ ere is no sign they are pulling back on spending, but they are pulling back on visitation,” Lynch told investors, noting that she was anticipating a strong spring as conditions improved at its resorts in all its regions — the Northeast, California, the Rockies and Paci c Northwest.

Vail Resorts told investors to expect earnings between $847 million and $889 million on close to $3 billion in revenue for the scal

2024 year that ends July 31, which gives Vail Resorts an earnings yield of about 30% on its revenue. In September the company told investors to expect earnings between $912 million and $968 million with a margin around 31%. In January, the company told investors that visits were down 16.2% compared to the previous season and estimated the year’s revenue would fall into the lower half of the September guidance.

e company reported access to $1.4 billion, with $812 million in cash on hand and $409 million in loan availability. e company reported $2.8 million in debt.

In November, Vail Resorts acquired a majority interest in the Crans Montana ski area in the Swiss Alps for $135 million. e company announced plans to invest $34 million in the resort in the next ve years and the resort is expected to deliver an additional $17 million in earnings a year. e purchase price was about eight times the resort’s expected cash ow, which is along the lines of traditional resort valuations over the years. (So Vail Resorts did not spend crazy money on its second European ski hill.)

We don’t know how much Vail Resorts’ competitor Alterra Mountain Co. paid for its most recent acquisition, Arapahoe Basin, because the company is privately owned. One investment representative asked if Vail Resorts looked at acquiring Arapahoe Basin.

Lynch reminded the investor that Vail Resorts sold Arapahoe Basin in the late 1990s due to federal antitrust concerns with its purchase of Breckenridge and Keystone. Vail Resorts had a 20-year partnership with Arapahoe Basin before the ski area in 2022 ended its partnership that allowed unlimited access for Epic Pass skiers.

“It makes a lot of sense to us that Alterra appears to be pursuing a strategy that might be more similar to our strategy of an owned and operated model,” Lynch said.

Alterra Mountain Co. and Vail Resorts last week released prices for the 2024-25 passes, with annual increases around 8%, which is similar to the rate of increase in previous seasons.

e Ikon Pass, with access to 58 ski destinations and April skiing for

early-purchasers at several resorts including Steamboat and Winter Park, starts at $1,249 and the more restrictive Ikon Base selling for $869.

Vail Resorts’ Epic Pass is selling for $982 for 2024-25, with unlimited access to all 42 of the company’s ski areas, plus seven days at Telluride ski area and access to partner resorts in Canada, Europe and Japan. e company’s Epic Local is o ered for $731 with holiday restrictions and unlimited access to 32 ski areas. e company’s Epic Day passes sell for as little as $52 for non-peak days at 22 resorts to $129 for unrestricted access to all 42 ski hills.  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.
