The width of Washington Street and more landscaping and fence improvements are all part of the city’s plan

A $14 million facelift for south Washington Street in ornton is sorely needed, say city o cials.
But they admit such a huge outlay is not immediately possible, meaning any improvement for the wellworn corridor will have to be piecemeal.
“We need about $14 million over the next several years, but we can’t a ord that,” Interim City Manager Brett Henry told city council members this week. “But we will see what we can a ord.”
e city is hoping a makeover w encourage more commercial investment and allow residents better access to business along south Washington, Henry said.
“We want to make it more attractive for all residents,” he said. “In the end, the city will attract more sales tax.”
e targeted area is primarily from 84th Avenue to Eppinger Boulevard. It’s home to about 80 businesses and almost 1,000 jobs, according to the city.
e plan presented to council members calls for the city and local

Seniors Over 70 Should Consider Downsizing Into a Rental, Not a Smaller Home
Regular readers know that I’ve written about this topic before, but it bears repeating. Just last week a reader called me about listing their home and helping them to buy a smaller, easier to maintain home.
Most agents would welcome this opportunity to have two paydays from a single client, but I’m different, because Rita and I were in a similar situation two years ago and chose another path, and we’re glad we did.
your “golden years” and travel, there’s the added stress of securing your home and handling yard maintenance and snow removal in your absence, so your home doesn’t look like you are on vacation.
We sold our 4,000-squarefoot home and moved into a 1,200-square-foot apartment. A recent study showed that this is a trend among us Baby Boomers.
Homeownership has a lot of costs, responsibility and tasks. The costs include rising property taxes which you will want to appeal every two years, plus rising insurance costs which can’t be appealed. For many, HOA dues and special assessments are an added burden.
Also, just as you might want to enjoy
Condo ownership at least offers a lock-and-leave situation, but still entails those other expenses. Rental relieves you of all the above.
I still recommend home ownership for non-seniors, because it is a proven strategy for wealth accumulation. Indeed it is the appreciation from our owned real estate which set Rita and me up for retirement far more than our earned income.
As one of my fellow Realtors is fond of saying, “If you have too little real estate or not enough, I’m here to help you!”
Fortunately, most seniors over 70 probably own their home free and clear, which means that selling their home can produce a lot of cash to invest in annui-
Kudos to Wendy Renee, Loan Officer Extraordinaire
Last week, I had a double closing that was only made possible by the diligent work of our in-house lender, Wendy Renee of Fairway Independent Mortgage. I can’t go to press this week without describing her work to you!
As happens now and then, I “doubleended” a listing, selling it to an out-ofstate buyer who was unrepresented. This was an investor who has purchased 18 homes and had her own lender, but that lender couldn’t perform and two subsequent lenders failed her, until the last one said we’d have to move the closing to August 15th instead of July 31st. The problem was that my seller was under contract to buy her replace-
ment home on July 31st, and the seller of that home couldn’t postpone the closing because of the contract they had on their replacement home.
So I introduced the out-of-state buyer by phone to Wendy, who said she could meet the deadline — and she did!
Making that possible was the fact that Fairway has every lending function inhouse. She issued disclosures on day 1, got underwriting approval on day 2, sent the Initial Closing Disclosure on day 3, and got the appraisal transferred and a Clear-to-Close on day 7. The loan proceeds were wired on day 7 so we had them for closing at 8 a.m. on day 8.
Thanks, Wendy. You’re amazing!
List With Me & Get Totally Free Local Moving
It has long been my practice — and that of some of my broker associates — that if you hire me to list your current home and to purchase your replacement home, I will not only reduce my commission for selling your current home but provide totally free local moving using our company moving truck (similar to a large U-Haul) and our own moving personnel. We also provide free moving boxes and packing paper/bubble wrap.
using traditional moving companies, you know that our totally free moving can save you thousands of dollars, even for a move within the metro area.
ties or CDs which could well provide enough monthly income to compensate for paying rent. A quick calculation can tell you whether your money will in fact outlive you, when that invested income is added to your Social Security and other income. That was the calculation that Rita and I made.
The question then arises, where can I rent an apartment that suits my needs? Should I go into a 55+ “independent living” complex or a regular rental?
A 55+ community may suit you, especially if you’re a widow or widower or otherwise single, because it can provide much-wanted companionship with its many activities. Some such communities offer “continuous care,” meaning that if you suffer a health setback, you can switch to assisted living, nursing home care and or even memory care without having to move to another com-
munity. I recommend Jenn Gomer from CarePatrol, 720-675-8308, who will interview you about your needs and wants and help you find the right 55+ community for you. She found the complex that Rita and I selected, although we have since moved to a regular rental closer to my office. You pay nothing for her services. She is compensated by the community which you end up choosing,
Are Real Estate Agents Overpaid?
Here’s some data cited by Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman at a conference last week:
Seventy-seven percent of agents haven’t made a sale this year, slightly worse than the 70 percent average seen in previous years. Of the agents who do make a sale, more than half earn less than $50,000 a year, and nearly a fourth make $100,000. More than a third of agents have to work a second job just to be able to stay in real estate. (from Inman News)
Trusts Are Another Tool for Leaving Home to Heirs
On July 25th, I wrote about title issues, especially when it relates to leaving a home to your heirs. With input from attorney Dan McKenzie, I wrote about the use of beneficiary deeds and life estates.
A reader asked, “what about trusts?” So I asked Dan to address that topic, and he sent me the following:
Trusts offer several advantages over beneficiary deeds and life estates. Like those two options, a properly funded trust avoids probate. Unlike those two options, however, it also allows your chosen trustee to step in and manage the property during an incapacity event, which is a more significant risk than death at any point in your life. Also, trusts allow you to control things over a few steps and can include instructions on handling things during the various phases of occupancy.
For example, if I want to leave a house to my two kids at my death, I could do that with a beneficiary deed, and that would avoid probate. However, the two kids would become equal co-owners, with no obligation to
each other or any way to resolve disputes about the property. If the property is passed to them through a trust, you can specify as many details as you want in the trust agreement about who is in charge: how costs will be split, decisions will be made, disputes will be resolved, etc.
Similarly, a trust can allow someone to live in the house for some time but ultimately direct where that house goes after a particular event. This is very common when one spouse brings a house into a second marriage. The spouse who does not have an ownership interest often wants assurance that they can stay in the house if they survive the house's owner. But the house's owner wants assurance that, ultimately, this significant asset will pass to their kids, not their step-kids.
A trust can include all the instructions about handling that, such as who is responsible for the maintenance, upkeep, insurance, and taxes during the surviving spouse's occupancy. A life estate doesn't give you a way to provide so much instruction.
Just pack and unpack. We will even pick up your flattened boxes and packing materials after you unpack!
If you have ever priced moving costs
I bought our first moving truck in 2004. We replaced it with a newer truck (above) in 2016. I calculate that we’ve saved clients hundreds of thousands of dollars in moving costs over the years.
RTD extends free fare for youth program
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Kids ages 19 and under can continue to ride Regional Transportation District buses and trains for free after a one-year trial program that was supposed to end Aug. 31 is now a regular feature in the district.
Positive reviews of the Zero Fare for Youth e ort – especially from schools and youth groups – prompted the RTD Board of Directors Tuesday to let the program continue beyond the one-year pilot, with no disruptions to youth customers. e zero-fare initiative allows youth ages 19 and under to use all RTD services at no cost.
“Since Zero Fare for Youth began last year, my team and I have heard directly from the public that the program has proven to be a gamechanger, enabling youth to have access to schools, work and extra-
curricular activities without the concern of how they will pay their fares,” General Manager and CEO Debra A. Johnson said in a news release.
“Zero Fare for Youth is helping RTD’s youngest customers understand how their new habits are aiding air quality in their communities and supporting their freedom to explore and gain independence. RTD is also developing transit customers for life,” Johnson said.
Extending the pilot
e one-year pilot program initially launched on Sept. 1, 2023, to provide a ordable, equitable and simple transit options for youth, the news release states.
e pilot was based on a key recommendation from the agency’s fare study and equity analysis, the news release states. Youth ages 19 and under can now continue to
present a valid student or government-issued ID and use all of RTD’s services at no cost. A full list of acceptable ID options can be found on the Zero Fare for Youth webpage.
RTD received positive feedback from many schools about the program’s impact in reducing truancy, and it garnered support from school districts, youth organizations and customers across the entire Denver metro area, according to the news release.
e Colorado legislature passed a bill in May 2024 to appropriate up to $5 million to RTD to continue a zero-fare program for youth. SB24032 Methods to Increase the Use of Transit outlines RTD’s eligibility to apply for and receive grant money to provide year-round, zero-fare transit services for youth.
RTD o cials say the Zero Fare for Youth program provides many bene ts for youth and their families, in-
cluding cost and time savings. Using RTD’s buses and trains increases independence by reducing dependence on others for transportation, and it provides young people with the freedom and exibility to travel where they need to go, the news release states.
RTD needs help with copper wire thieves
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Regional Transportation District o cials are asking transit riders that if they see something suspicious near the agency’s track, report it. Especially if they see someone hauling away copper wiring.
RTD says multiple cases of copper wire theft has been reported near track signals, switches and rail crossings. e agency has reported
FINALISTS
Jones is committed to the same standards that he expects from his team, whether it is punctuality, diligence, or maintaining a positive attitude. is approach fosters respect and motivates his team to perform at their best. As the city’s project manager for the John O’Donnell Baseball Stadium (now renamed Modern Woodman Park) renovation project in Downtown Davenport, IA, Jones had responsibility for coordinating the nancing, engineering (includ-
ve instances of copper wire being stolen along light rail alignments over the last week alone, according to an RTD news release.
Most of the theft has taken place along the R Line, which runs between Peoria Station in Aurora and Lincoln Station in Lone Tree, the agency states.
e incidents have led to signicant impacts on light rail service, including train delays, crossing arms staying active in the down position,
ing pre-design, and design), and construction aspects of the project. e situation was particularly tricky because the stadium lies on the banks of the Mississippi River. While a beautiful location, it is prone to ooding in the spring and summer. Following his pledge not to allow this project to go over budget, he obtained a $1,250,000 Community Attraction and Tourism grant from the Iowa Department of Economic Development (something few thought was achievable).
Todd Leopold Leopold has been the Central Regional Manager for the State of Colo-
prompting the need for bus shuttles to carry stranded passengers to their destinations, RTD states.
RTD is also investigating multiple cases of thieves targeting copper wire along the A and G commuter rail lines. A wire theft on July 29 along the A Line, resulted in signal issues and the need for bus shuttles between Denver Union Station and Central Park Station, the news release states.
RTD’s copper wires provide con-
rado since 2022. Previously, he was the County Executive O cer for Placer County, CA (population 417,772) for four years, and he was with Adams County, CO (population 511,485) for ve years, with the last four as the County Manager. He also worked for Je erson County, CO (population 546,736) for twelve years.
Leopold’s management style is best described as rmly grounded in local government best practices while also emphasizing being adaptive. He is skilled at identifying common interests among individuals and groups with competing priorities. He does so by facilitating dialogue that leads to strengthened
nections to a low-voltage system that powers signals at rail crossing, as well as high-voltage circuits that energize trains through the overhead wires. Most of the recent thefts have happened overnight, and the thieves are striking at di erent locations across the system’s 120 miles of track, the news release states.
Copper wire thefts disrupted RTD’s rail services in 2022. In response, RTD implemented new ways to thwart thieves, including
relationships and shared goals. is skill set has been and is instrumental in navigating complex organizational dynamics and fostering a culture of cooperation and mutual respect. One of his more notable achievements was spearheading the construction of a new health and human services facility on the Placer County government campus. is project had been stagnating for over two decades until he stepped in and led a comprehensive e ort to analyze the existing infrastructure challenges, escalating maintenance costs, space constraints for employees, and anticipated increased staing demands.
Youths 19 and under can now ride RTD buses and trains for free. MONTE WHALEY
This summer, take simple steps for better air
It’s another hot, sunny, bluesky day in Denver. The air is still and looks clear! Despite the beautiful day, you may feel irritation in your throat or a tightness in your chest while out walking the dog, at the park, riding your bike, or on an afternoon run. Your asthma may also be acting up.
This is likely the impact of ground-level ozone: the Front Range’s most pressing air quality problem each summer. We can’t see or smell it, but this pollutant accumulates the most on hot and sunny blue-sky days, reaching its highest levels in the afternoons and evenings.
While ozone serves an important purpose high up in the atmosphere — protecting us from the sun’s ultraviolet radiation — at ground level, high concentrations of ozone are unhealthy. Ozone makes it difficult to breathe, increases our susceptibility to respiratory infections, and exacerbates respiratory ailments such as asthma.
High ozone levels affect all of us. Even if you are healthy, ozone can impact the cells in your lungs during and after exposure, like
sunburn, and repeated exposure over time can lead to reduced lung function. The people at higher risk of exposure or more sensitive to this air pollution include the elderly, those with respiratory conditions, outdoor workers, outdoor athletes, and especially children, whose lungs are still developing.
Where does this air pollution come from? Ground-level ozone is not directly emitted from any source. It forms in the air when two chemicals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), react in the sunshine and heat of summer days. These chemicals are called ozone precursors, and they are released into the air from emissions made by our gaspowered vehicles, gas-powered lawn equipment, and oil and gas production across the Front Range.
Both colorless and odorless, ozone is different than wildfire smoke, tiny particulate matter called PM2.5 or PM10, and the visible Denver “brown cloud” of years past. However, ozone can combine with other air quality issues, and is sometimes referred to as “smog.”
errands, or taking the bus or the light rail to get where you need to go. Don’t forget: youth ride for free on RTD! For shorter distances, leave the car at home and walk, ride a scooter, or your bike or e-bike.
Fuel up your car after 5 p.m. to avoid releasing emissions during the heat of the day. Skip idling your car: instead, roll down the windows and turn off the engine while waiting in parking lots or lines. Consider a low- or zeroemissions vehicle, like an electric vehicle (EV), when it’s time to purchase a new vehicle.
While air quality in the region has greatly improved in the past half century, ozone remains a pressing issue to our health and environment. But as our gas-powered vehicles and gas-powered lawn equipment contribute to its formation, we all have the power to reduce ground-level ozone in the Front Range each summer!
First, sign up for ozone alerts. Visit SimpleStepsBetterAir.org to sign up for emails or text “BetterAirCO” to 21000 to receive air quality alerts on your phone. When the Colorado Department of Health and Environment (CDPHE) forecasts a high ozone day, the Regional Air Quality Council (RAQC) will send you a timely text or email to let you know.
On high ozone days, protect your health by avoiding outdoor exercise or heavy exertion between noon and 8 p.m. Still want to get outside? Plan ahead and spend time outside in the morning, or later in the evening, when ozone levels will be lower.
Second, reduce your emissions! Take some Simple Steps for Better Air: Skip two car trips per week by carpooling, combining
Mow the lawn after 5 p.m. if you still use gas-powered equipment. Even better, upgrade your old gas lawn mower, trimmer, or leaf blower to a new electric one with a 30% state discount at participating retailers this year!
And if your job can be done remotely, work from home at least one day a week and eliminate your commute altogether.
Taking these timely, simple steps in the summer improves our Front Range air quality, our health, and our ability to enjoy the outdoors! Visit SimpleStepsBetterAir.org for more information about how to reduce your ozone impact this summer and help your community breathe easier.

Next steps
Plans are already underway to redevelop the old ornton Shopping Center and improve the area around ornton High School, said Adam Krueger, ornton’s economic development director.
Planners are looking at recon guring south Washington Street including narrowing the corridor in key sections, reducing lane widths and removing speci c right turn lanes. e city could widen existing sidewalks to eight feet where possible and detach sidewalks in key areas, as well. Relocating an RTD bus stop to help reduce mid-block crossings and upgrading ADA ramps are also a priority, according to the city’s plan. Improving the corridor’s aesthetics will also mean more uniform sidewalks and pavement and installing land-
scaping to act as bu ers from tra c, according to the city.
e city is also working with the Adams 12 FutureForward program to fabricate artworks that can placed throughout ornton’s medians.
ornton’s public grant program can also be leveraged to encourage private investment for landscaping, façade improvements and signs in commercial corridors, Krueger told the council. e recommended cap for each grant would be $50,000 and that would require a match to encourage a business to invest in the improvements, the city said.
e goal is to assist 10 to 15 shopping centers and commercial buildings with aesthetic improvement over the next three to four years, according to the city’s plan.
Planners want to develop consistent landscaping standards for the corridor and plant low water plants and limit grass to reduce water and simplify maintenance.
e city also wants to start a resi-
dential fence repair program to shore up the corridor’s most dilapidated fences. ornton could partner with a local supply store to engage volunteers to do speci c projects.
Council members said they generally liked the city’s proposals for south Washington with some exceptions.
Councilmember Justin Martinez said he wants more attention paid to bi-

Councilmember Kathy Henson –who represents that area of ornton along with Martinez – said the city seemed to favor one side of Washington for improvements over another.

Northglenn Ambulance now part of AirLife Denver
The
partnership is the first of its kind in HCA
Healthcare history
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
AirLife Denver and Northglenn Ambulance are now partners in providing prehospital care and transport for stricken residents.
AirLife Denver – the HealthONE emergency and critical care transport service – said ursday that Northglenn Ambulance is now part
of HealthONE’s healthcare network. is investment in prehospital care and transport is the rst of its kind in HCA Healthcare, HealthONE’s parent company, according to a news release.
It also demonstrates the health system’s commitment to caring for more lives across the communities it serves, said Brian Leonard, regional assistant vice present of HCA Healthcare’s Western Region Medical Transport, in a news release.
“Northglenn Ambulance has been a tremendous partner to HealthONE and AirLife for many years, serving the prehospital communities of metro Denver and beyond,” said Leonard, regional assistant vice presi-
dent for HCA Healthcare’s Western Region Medical Transport.
“Between our teams, we collectively have over a century of experience serving patients, hospitals and emergency medical service agencies across Colorado and the surrounding states. We are beyond excited about what this acquisition means for our patients and the communities we mutually serve,” Leonard said.
Northglenn Ambulance has served patients, hospitals and emergency medical service agencies for more than 61 years, the news release states.
Now, with 19 ambulances located in three stations, AirLife EMS
will continue this legacy of caring throughout the Denver metro region, expanding and enhancing the company’s transport network across the market, Leonard said.
“ e founders of Northglenn Ambulance sought to provide and enhance emergency care and medical transport where the services were not available,” said Rick Lindsey, CEO of Northglenn Ambulance, in the news release.
“We have continued this objective for more than six decades, and this new partnership will provide access to resources increasing the reach of our program far into the future.,” Lindsey said.
Charmed future for a Fort Lupton company
Carbon capture company hopes to bury climate change
BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNTIYMEDIA.COM
As global temperatures rise, a new Fort Lupton company seeks to nd new ways to repair the climate by removing carbon and securing it underground.
“With the high levels to keep the earth below one and a half degrees of warming. We need to reduce emissions by switching to electric vehicles and other things,” said Charm Industrial CEO Peter Reinhardt July 23 at his company’s grand opening and ribbon cutting in Fort Lupton. “But we also need to remove CO-2 from the atmosphere. In other words, we’ve over lled the bathtub. So, we need to go back and remove historical emissions to keep the balance and checks.”
Reinhardt said Charm is a seminalist for the Department of Energy Carbon Removal Purchase Pilot Prize, the rst initiative by the U.S. Federal Government to purchase carbon dioxide removal directly from domestic providers.
Charm Industrial started building its facility in 2022 and opened its doors at 2360 South Rollie Avenue on July 23, celebrating with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
“We’re excited about the future; we hope it will transition to more of a public good service. We need
to do something with atmosphere,” said Peter Reinhardt, CEO of Charm Industrial.
e Colorado Energy O ce roadmap is starting to incorporate carbon capture and removal in the statewide plan, due in the fall of 2024.
“We are so happy to support those e orts and to be in Colorado. Over 65 people are working at the Fort Lupton site, and we’re continuing to grow,” said company spokesperson Alison Kelman.
“We are dedicated to being part of the Colorado community here in Fort Lupton. It’s been a welcoming
community, and we’re excited that you can all come out to our facilities to learn more about what we do.”
Beyond o sets
Reinhardt started his career in aerospace engineering but then moved to San Francisco to start a software company. Reinhardt built his company “Segment” up to 600 people with $250 million in annual revenues before selling it o in 2020.
“Along the way, I became interested in buying carbon o sets for our emissions at Segment. Unfortunately, most of those carbon o sets we were buying weren’t doing any-
thing,” Reinhardt said.
Carbon o sets e ectively allow polluters to pay some other group to use less carbon, either paying them not to develop or remove some amount of carbon from the atmosphere.
“ en, I became very interested in building something of higher quality and more permanent, which ultimately led me to start Charm as a carbon removal company in February 2018,” he said.
Reinhardt said they settled on using Bio-oil sequestration pathway in March 2020, at the beginning of the COVID-19 shutdown. eir method takes plant residues from agricultural waste and potential fuel from wild re, converting them into a biomass liquid called Bio-oil.
“ en, we inject that liquid into orphan oil and gas wells. Today, we do that in Kansas, and hopefully soon in some other states,” he said.
Reinhardt said that the process permanently removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, very measurably puts it underground, and permanently sequesters it.
“ is took o for us in 2020. Our rst customers were software companies based in San Francisco and Seattle. We started delivering the rst carbon removal in January 2021. A few years later, we’re excited to be here in Fort Lupton and start to scale up our operations,” Reinhardt said.
CEO Peter Reinhardt and his son cut the ribbon on Charm Industrial’s Fort Lupton operation on July 26. BELEN WARD
FUTURE
Green transition
Reinhardt noted that the nations’ transition to green energy is underway, with wind turbine maker Vesta located down the street. But good methods for removing carbon are still considered an unsolved problem.
“It became clear in 2018, when the (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) released a report where they said, it looks like we’re going to need around ve to 10 billion tons a year of removal CO-2 by 2050,” he said.
Reinhardt said there was zero carbon removal in 2018 at the start of the whole new industry.
“ ere are 100 Carbon removal companies out there, and Charm is one of the leaders. ere are a variety
of di erent approaches, from direct air capture to enhance rock ocean alkalinity enhancement to biomass, carbon removal, storage, and weathering, which is what we do,” Reinhardt said.
Reinhardt said all these approaches are supported by voluntary purchases from companies that want a positive impact. It started with payment software companies such as Stripe and Shopify, an e-commerce company. But it has since spread to Microsoft and other companies and types of industries.
“It has now spread into nancial services companies JP Morgan, who are now paying for carbon removal against their own emissions,” Reinhardt said.
Overflowing
Reinhardt describes the process with a bathtub analogy. e amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere today is about 420 parts per million,
up from about 280 parts per million before we started burning fossil fuels in the 1800s.
“ ere’s a safe level, around 350ish parts per million CO-2, but we’ve over lled it right now,” Reinhardt said. “ e removal process involves returning and lowering the bathtub’s level to what they think is safe and stable.”
Carbon dioxide cycles in and out of the atmosphere yearly as plants grow – removing carbon from the atmosphere – die and then rot, releasing that carbon back.
Aside from an engineered type of carbon removal, there is no way to do that, and there’s a lot of talk about planting more trees. Unfortunately, planting enough trees will not make this happen. It can help, but it can’t solve the problem anymore, he said.
Market for biomass
Reinhardt said his company buys biomass from folks who have it as
residue from a forestry operation southwest of Denver, a part of forest fuel load reduction, wild re prevention and work to prevent the worst outcomes of wild res along the Front Range.
He’s hoping to expand those resources to include agricultural residues such corn stover – the husks, leaves and cobbs normally left in the eld after corn is harvested. at debris would otherwise rot in the eld, he said.

“We hope to shorten that transport distance, and what’s cool is that we’re using old orphan wells,” Reinhardt said.

STEAD School gets grant to bulid “Founders Field”
BY STAFF REPORT
Commerce City’s STEAD School received a $550,000 grant from Adams County that will allow the public charter high school will proceed with building a 29,900 square foot natural grass play eld – to be known as the “Founders Field”.
e eld will be built at the northeast end of its 10-acre L.C. Fulenwider campus. As a next step, the STEAD School will begin to issue construction bids to landscape rms over the next several weeks.
STEAD is a science-based, studentled, and agriculturally-focused, project driven school serving Reunion, a master-planned community managed by Oakwood Homes in Commerce City.
e school has been developed through a series of public-private partnerships, including a range of funding sources. It currently features three instructional buildings, a oneacre farm, general store, livestock, greenhouse lab, soils and seeds lab, a Cultivate Center which slated to open later this year and more.
e school is continuing to fundraise for the nal campus features, including the play eld, as well as ani-
mal stables and the “Barn”, which will be the school’s gymnasium and public assembly space.
e Adams County Board of Commissioners awarded more than $21 million in open space grants for 24 projects thanks to the voter-approved Open Space Sales Tax. Funding for the spring 2024 grant cycle came from revenues from the second half of the 2023 Adams County Open Space Sales Tax, which was passed by Adams County voters in 1999, and in perpetuity in 2020.
When the Open Space Sales Tax was presented to voters in 1999, the ballot question called for the creation of an Open Space Advisory Board. is board recommends open space projects to the county for funding. Grants are funded from 68% of the tax proceeds and are awarded twice a year.
A portion of all proceeds will be donated to the American Red Cross and volunteer

Colorado’s new tax credit for college students
BY JASON GONZALES CHALKBEAT COLORADO
Students who live in a household that makes $90,000 or less a year are now eligible for a Colorado tax credit that will help pay for the rst two years of college.
State leaders say accessing that credit for the rst time should be an easy process for students attending school this year. Colleges or universities will track which students are eligible and then notify them. But students will still have to le their own tax return to get the money.
e new credit works as a rebate and was approved during this year’s legislative session. e program received wide support from lawmakers, in part because it will cost the state less than paying for tuition and fees upfront.
Many Colorado public universities and colleges have their own programs to pay upfront costs for students, often called Promise programs. Each school’s program has its own eligibility rules. ere is no statewide program.
Leaders say the new tax credit will help even more students than the existing school-speci c Promise programs. is is especially important, as in-state students face some of the highest tuition rates and fees in the country.
“Just under 50% of our high school graduates are going to postsecondary in Colorado,” said Angie Paccione, Colorado Department of Higher Education executive director. “We want to change that, and we’re hoping that this creates an incentive and some motivation for students to say, ‘It is truly a ordable. I could actually do this.’”
Paccione said studies showed the state would have needed $40 million to $140 million a year to cover tuition and fees for eligible students if it paid them upfront. e new tax credit is expected to cost about $39 million a year in refunds.
With the eligibility threshold at $90,000 in household income — higher than many of the collegerun programs — more middleincome students will be eligible for aid. Paccione hopes the state can eventually raise that income threshold even higher, possibly to $120,000 a year.
“Imagine the relief for families who are really trying to make it in our economy and contend with the rising cost of college,” she said.
Which Colorado students are eligible for the tax credit?
e credit, called Colorado Promise: Two Free Years of College Expanded, will equal the tuition and fees paid by the student after any
scholarships or grants. e credit will be in place for students starting this fall into the 2032 school year for those attending public community, technical, and regional colleges, as well as four-year universities. e state doesn’t know how many students will qualify for the tax credit this upcoming school year, but it has made some guesses based on past data. About 28,000 students statewide would have been eligible for the tax credit last year, accord-
ing to a scal analysis. Eligible students have to meet certain requirements, such as having graduated high school in Colorado within the last two years, being enrolled in at least six credit hours at a Colorado public college, and maintaining a 2.5 GPA or higher. ey must also have lled out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid.

New motorcycle law allows for riding between lanes
But only when tra c is stopped
BY JUSTIN GEORGE THE COLORADO SUN
A Colorado law that went into effect Aug. 7 will allow motorcycles to ride between lanes past cars —
TAX CREDIT
Students who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents have to have lled out the CASFA, or the Colorado Application for State Financial Aid, to qualify for the tax credit. ose students will also get the tax form from schools if they qualify.
e tax credit functions as a rebate. Families and students will have to pay their tuition and fees up front or borrow money to pay those bills. ey should expect a refund after ling a tax return for the year that the school year ends. For example, credits for the academic year 2024-25 would be claimed on a student’s 2025 tax return — due by April 2026 — and paid out in 2026. Four-year college students can expect an average of $2,700 in tax credits each year, technical college students can expect an average of $2,000, and two-year college students should get back an average of $1,000.
How will students apply?
Colorado public colleges and universities will notify students by email whether they’ve quali ed, Paccione said.
Colleges and universities will have
but only if tra c has stopped. Riders must make sure lanes are wide enough to allow them to pass safely, and they are limited to 15 mph when overtaking stopped cars.
Motorcycles cannot pass using the right shoulder, and they cannot move in the opposite direction of tra c in the lanes.
e new rule aims to reduce congestion by allowing riders to move
students’ household income on record through either the federal or state aid application. Based on that, schools will be able to calculate which students qualify. Students not meeting the GPA requirements will also be noti ed that they’re not eligible, she said.
Students will then get a tax form that they will use when they le their state taxes.
Although the eligibility will be based on a student’s family or household income as reported on the FAFSA or CASFA, students will have to apply for the tax credit themselves. ey’ll need to le a state tax return to get the credit, even if they did not work and would not have otherwise led a return.
How can students spend the credit?
Students will be reimbursed only for tuition and fees, so living expenses or supplies such as textbooks aren’t covered.
However, students can use the tax rebate any way they want, Paccione said. For instance, they can save the tax money for future college expenses. But Paccione recommends that students apply that money toward tuition and fees they’ve already paid or borrowed money to pay. at will reduce long-term debt, she said.
“It’s going to require discipline from the student and family when
up at stop lights and during tra c jams, while decreasing the chance for motorcycles to get rear-ended. California and Utah are among states that allow motorcycles to ride between lanes under some circumstances. e American Motorcyclist Association endorses the practice, saying it gives motorcyclists an “escape route” from being rear-ended.

Second property tax relief proposal likely to be on ballot
PCROSS CURRENTS
VOICES
Bill Christopher
etitions with approximately 200,000 signatures were submitted to the Secretary of State’s O ce last week which will likely put Initiative 108 (also known as the Citizens’ Tax Cut) on the November ballot. is petition drive produced more than 75,000 signatures in excess of what was required to get on the ballot. It would be the second property tax relief proposal to make its way to the voters this fall.
e rst one which is Proposition 50 (a Constitutional Amendment) would cap property taxes at a maximum of 4% each year without voter approval. is proposal is in response to the huge jump in property values which we have experienced which in turn produce much higher property taxes. It is noted that 39 different states across the country have caps on property tax increases. Initiative 108 attacks the property tax issue from a di erent approach. If approved by voters, it would cut the assessment rates for residential properties to 5.7% and and 24% on business/commercial properties. Both ballot propositions are backed by Advance Colorado and Colorado Concern.
State Legislators and the Governor failed to get the job done
According to data obtained from the Department of Local A airs (DOLA), Colorado’s tax revenue rose by approximately $2.5 billion in 2023 which represents a 20% increase. is created a huge windfall to property taxing agencies from school dis-
tricts, city and county governments to special districts such as re protection districts.
Over the past decade, DOLA indicates that tax revenues in the state have more than doubled. With the state decision-makers only putting a dent in these runaway tax increases, outside interests have crafted measures giving voters the option of cutting back property taxes. us, the “Citizens’ Tax Cut” name.
According to Dave Davia, CEO of Colorado Concern and a former Westminster City Council member, “Soaring property taxes are crushing homeowners and small businesses while wage growth has barely budged. It’s time for voters to take matters into their own hands.”
You may recall, Senate Bill 233 which was the Legislature’s and Governor Polis’ highly touted solution to the property tax problem. e measure mandates a 6.7% residential property assessment rate with a $55,000 value reduction and a commercial rate of 27.9% with a $30,000 value reduction for taxes due in 2025. en in 2025, the residential rate drops to 6.4% for local governments,
but goes up to 7.15% for school districts and remains in perpetuity unless local property tax revenues make up 60% of K-12 funding.
Additionally, a 5.5% cap on only local government property tax revenues would kick-in and remain in perpetuity (which can be overridden by local referendum while this cap would not apply to schools.)
For the 2026 tax year, the residential assessment rate for local governments only would be 6.95%. Homeowners would also receive a 10% exemption from taxation on their property’s value up to $70,000. e new commercial rate would decrease to 25% and stay there in perpetuity.
Flip side of the coin if propositions are approved
Voters need to understand that if these two proposals (50 and 108) are approved, they would have negative consequences. Opponents say that a reduction in property tax revenues would have a severe negative impact on local governmental units (see above who they are) in their ability to retain service levels.
State Representative Lisa Frizell stated it would be “catastrophic.” If the two proposals were to pass, it is estimated that school districts/special districts would see a shortfall of $3 billion in the rst year. However, under the law, the state government would back ll this shortfall to make the school districts whole.
But the back ll, in turn, would reduce the state’s budget for all other expenditures i.e. a forced budget reduction.
So, it comes down to what you the voter prefers - less property taxes on your residential property with less state government money for everything but school funding OR higher property taxes with more revenues for school districts/special districts and state government services and programs.
What is your choice?
Big news for Westminster area shoppers
You probably saw the good news that Trader Joe’s will be coming to the City Center Marketplace near 92nd Avenue on Sheridan Boulevard.
CHRISTOPHER
is popular niche grocery chain has been a longtime goal for Westminster as it is with other suburban communities. While not a mega-grocery sales retailer, they do bring different food choices you won’t nd in most other stores.
Plus, they have “Two Buck Chuck” wine aka Charles Shaw wines. Well, it isn’t $2 anymore, but it still is a steal at $4.49.
ey will be opening next year utilizing 25,000 square feet. eir presence will de nitely boost tra c to the Marketplace Center and add a degree of “status” to the center. Kudos goes to Westminster’s Economic Development Sta on garnering this prize. Let’s hope the parking is adequate!!
Federal court knocks down Castle Rock’s homeless parking ban
e Rock Church in Castle Rock was extending assistance to homeless people by letting them live in a parked camping trailer and RV located on their parking lot. It was their way of helping people in need and exercising its religious beliefs.
is practice exists in some locations in the greater metro Denver area as well. e Town of Castle Rock then entered the picture and cited the church for violating land use laws. Next, the church sued the Town, claiming the town was violating the Religious Land Use and Institutional Persons Act. is federal law protects “individuals, houses of worship and other religious institutions from discrimination in zoning and land marking laws” as described by the U.S. Department of Justice.
U.S. District Court Judge Daniel Domenico had issued a preliminary injunction recently preventing the town from enforcing its zoning code. Now, the Judge has issued a ruling declaring Castle Rock’s attempt to stop the church from housing homeless people in vehicles on their parking lot is a violation of the church’s practice of religious freedom.
Positive and detrimental aspects to consider
I’m guessing the Town of Castle Rock will appeal the decision. In the meantime, it opens up both positive and negative possibilities.
Homelessness is not going away any time soon. Not every community can a ord to build more housing or even
modify existing dwelling units. e idea of using vehicles, camper trailers and RV’s in a safe place for homeless folks is an e cient way to help.
e problem I see has to do with the volume of vehicles and campers. Allowing, say ten vehicles/campers on a church parking lot is one thing, but allowing one hundred is another. e visual impact is a factor to be reckoned with. Bathing and using bathroom facilities raises public health questions.
So, it doesn’t lend itself to a single all-encompassing solution. Judge Domenico did not address details of how many vehicles/campers or the sanitary conditions. ese need to be addressed before this idea gets out of hand.
Northglenn brings home the Gold
Oops, I got carried away from watching so much of the Olympic Games. I meant to say “Northglenn brings home the money.”
e City Council recently accepted three Adams County Open Space grant agreements with the Board of Adams County Commissioners. Together, the grants total $1,537,722 which is a big nancial boost for any eligible municipality for these county funds.
Two of the projects consist of a $233,000 grant and $100,000 local match for the Greenway Trails Project and a $385,000 grant and $165,000 local match for Audio, Lighting and Video Enhancements at E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial Park and the I-25 pedestrian underpass. An audible alert system is for the park and video cameras and additional lighting will be added for the underpass.
e third grant involves the second of two grants made over time involving restoration of Kiwanis Park Swimming Pool. e most current grant is for replacement of the pool deck at $919,722. Grant #1 was for $1,000,000 for concrete pool deck, underground plumbing, modernizing the ltration system, upgrading the electrical system, resurfacing the pools and providing added shade and amenities.
Such grants from the county’s Open Space tax provide valuable parks, open space and recreation facilities which in some cases could not be realized without the county funding.
Congrats City of Northglenn on your “medals.”

A CLEAR MESSAGE
Denver deaf and hearing interpreters explain importance of communication
BY ELISABETH SLAY ESLAY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Using uid hand gestures, expressive facial expressions and precise body language, sign language interpreters in the Denver metro area facilitate clear communication for individuals uent in American Sign Language.
eir skillful use of visual communication bridges linguistic gaps and enhances accessibility across a wide range of contexts and environments.
“Basically anywhere that a deaf person goes where communication needs to happen and where the ADA protects them from discrimination, I am there,” said Rae Rose, local interpreter and owner of Rose Sign Language Interpreting.
‘An instrument of fairness’
When Rose was a child she had a conversation with a member of the deaf community that changed her life.
“We were playing and there was a bit of a communication breakdown where she had a great idea but none of us were getting it and this woman, who was studying to be an interpreter came over and…she just interpreted our conversation
and left,” Rose said. “I was like ‘I want to do that.”’
So, Rose became an American Sign Language Interpreter.
It was in college that she interpreted for the rst time and felt she had chosen the right path.
“It was probably two sentences (but) I was like ‘Oh man, oh man,”’ Rose said. “I had put all the pieces together and they had their conversation and I did it and it was nothing to anybody but I was over the moon.”
Rose founded Rose Sign Language in 2009 and it “facilitates communication between people who sign and people who don’t sign.”
Whether at a doctor’s o ce or while riding a pool noodle during a swim lesson, Rose signs in a myriad of environments including medical, education, behavioral and kids sports.
“It takes a lot of creativity and a lot of di erent strategies to make those lessons visually successful but also working with deaf kids I have a lot more options,” Rose said. “I love seeing any of my consumers start at one place and end in a di erent place having achieved a lot. at’s one of the best parts of my job.”
Rose runs the day-to-day operations of her business and helps connect other interpreters with those who need the services.
Colorado native and deaf sign language interpreter Jennifer Salaz with her sister, Victoria Ulibarri, whom she said encouraged her to become an interpreter.
ing excited to have a conversation with each other without…paper,” Salaz said.
In her capacity as a deaf interpreter Salaz said she works directly with deaf students who’ve immigrated from other countries and her work allows “for better access to communication and understanding for these students.”
“It’s my language (and) being able to teach others that have moved from other countries is amazing,” she said. “Watching them nally able to communicate with a language they can use and call their own is very inspiring.”
The right register
Similar to Rose, Salaz also provides interpreting services in medical settings.
“ is is important because sometimes the hearing interpreter uses the wrong register, not serious or too serious depending on the situation, or uses words that the deaf consumer doesn’t understand,” Salaz said.
MESSAGE
“I am a very big-picture person,” Rose said. “So I love seeing all the pieces t together and I love doing it better. I saw some great things as a new member of the eld but I wanted to reproduce and put my own sparkle on it.”
Along with providing interpreting services, Rose said her company is also big on advocacy and education. “We’re able to provide members of the hearing company a chance to learn ASL from a deaf person,” Rose said. “ is is a deaf person sharing their culture, their birthright.”
For Rose, the aspect of interpreting that intrigued her was “the fairness of it.”
“As a white woman with my allotted amount of privilege, to be able to be an instrument of fairness is worthwhile and to make it easy for as many people and as many organizations as possible to create fairness and create
equity…that’s important,” Rose said.
Filling in the gaps
For Colorado native and deaf sign language interpreter Jennifer Salaz, one of her favorite and most impactful times signing was when she interpreted for a deaf high school student.
Salaz explained as a deaf interpreter she is able to ll in the gaps and expand on things for those whose native language is American Sign Language.
“ e student was having an indepth conversation about a serious (topic),” Salaz said. “ ey were writing back and forth in the previous class with a di erent interpreter because the student didn’t feel comfortable. at wasn’t successful.”
However, after she began interpreting for the two students, Salaz said the conversation was successful for both parties as they could better communicate.
“ ey were able to have a genuine peer-to-peer conversation with the con dence that their information was safe and both walked away feel-
Rose said the way she interprets ASL depends on her consumer. It’s important to ensure they understand what is being said.
“English has its own variations, its own dialects, its own accents. Everybody’s got their own level of uency with English,” Rose said. “Same with ASL or any sign communication.”
As a deaf woman, Salaz said, she herself relies on interpreting services and has experienced misrepresentation “time and time again” including an experience when her daughter was taken away from her because she was “misrepresented by a ‘skilled’ hearing interpreter.”
“All because the interpreter didn’t understand me or their ego was too big to ask for clari cation,” Salaz said. “Because of this, I want to support the deaf community as they do have to experience the same injustices.”
Salaz said her sister encouraged her to become a deaf interpreter and become involved with the community to help prevent similar issues from happening to others.
The future
Salaz said interpreting in general is important for both hearing and deaf people and she describes the deaf community in Colorado as large.
However, Salaz said many members of the deaf community grow up in hearing families and it can be
isolating because of the communication barrier.
“I am one of six kids, and if my sister, who can uently sign, doesn’t attend a family event, I’m lost,” Salaz said. “I feel like most of my deaf friends have the same experience…I explain this because having the community is like having an additional family that shares the same experiences. Being able to share experiences, talk about life and communicate that is key.” is is something she thinks interpreters need to carry with them as they venture into the world.
“I hope that interpreters would put their egos aside and realize this is about their work and not them,” she said. “ ey are amazing people and the deaf community welcomes them. We just want a clear message to be produced for all of us.”
Rose said she hopes for increased equity and recognition that everyday people can do something to make a di erence.
She encourages hearing people to see interpreters as an awareness that there are deaf people in the same space as them who need to or enjoy frequenting the same environments as them.
“Everywhere that you see an interpreter there maybe just think ‘I didn’t know there were deaf people in my town. Cool. Maybe I should learn a little ASL,”’ Rose said.

CinemaQ celebrates its sweet 16
For Keith Garcia, artistic director of Denver Film’s Sie FilmCenter and founder of the CinemaQ LGBTQ+ lm festival, the most rewarding thing about hosting the annual event is every time he thinks the festival might be unnecessary, he’s reminded of its importance to the community.
“People still need to come together, see a lm and talk about it,” he said. “It’s a crucial respite from the daily world to tell stories and have a good time together.”
e “sweet 16” of the CinemaQ Film Festival, presented by William LaBahn, runs at the Sie FilmCenter, 2510 E. Colfax Ave., from ursday, Aug. 8 through Sunday, Aug. 11. is year’s festival features 14 lms, running the gamut from hilarious comedies like opener “My Old Ass” to incisive documentaries such as “Any Other Way: e Jackie Shane Story.”
“Some of the larger festivals can be really overwhelming, so we like the idea of keeping it light with 14 options,” Garcia said. “ is allows audience members to nd what speaks to them from di erent stories. Not every lm is for everybody, but we make sure there’s a lm for everybody.”
A new feature of the festival this year is the BLQ (Black Lives Queerly) program, a result of a partnership
COMING ATTRACTIONS
with Black Pride Colorado that aims to produce more screenings of lms that focus on Black queer stories. As part of this programming track, the festival will include an Aug. 10 panel that will feature a discussion and Q&A by creatives from multiple disciplines as they share their experiences navigating a creative world as a Black queer creator, according to provided information. ere will also be a BLQ mixer event following the panel.
No matter what lms audiences decide to explore, they’re certain to leave with new perspectives on the world and a renewed appreciation for the importance of celebrating the LGBTQ+ community.
“For all the lms we consider, we look at vision, visibility and voices.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — SiR at Summit Music Hall
Modern R&B is such a great genre because it’s so malleable. ere are so many subgenres within it that you can celebrate both traditionalists and those willing to push the envelope. SiR, who hails from Inglewood, California, is de nitely one of the latter artists, and his progressive, warmly nebulous take on R&B has been earning him fans for nearly a decade. In support of the album, SiR is bringing his Bad Karma Tour to the Summit Music Hall, 1902 Blake St. in Denver, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 13. He’ll be joined by Top Dawg Entertainment label-mate Zacari for a night of great modern R&B. Get tickets at www.livenation.com.

MotoAmerica’s Mini Cup Regional ignites Dacono
Rocky Mountain Mini Moto hosts thrilling qualifiers for MotoAmerica’s Mini Cup
BY HESTON MOSHER
SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
It was a regional championship race day on July 28 at the IMI Motorsports complex in Dacono. e electrifying event was hosted by MotoAmerica and organized by Rocky Mountain Mini Moto.
e races are part of MotoAmerica’s Mini Cup series, which serves as the rst step toward the premier MotoAmerica Championship.
All of the races on Sunday, from junior to F5 classes, competed to qualify for the Mission Mini Cup by Motul National Final, scheduled for August 9–11 at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin.
If you know the IMI Motorsports complex, you know it’s tucked away a couple of miles east of the I-25 and the Erie Parkway exit. e complex maintains three tracks (dirt, quarter midget and a road course) and has a repair shop, clean portable toilets, a PA system, plenty of parking and a solid crew facilitating the races.
begins their 10th lap, the checkered ag begins to wave to signal the end of the race.
Each race begins with the rst, second and nal call for racers to line up outside of the track over the PA system.
After each racer les into a line outside of the track, they complete a warm-up lap around the track to reach their destination at the start line. Once set at the start line, the agger will wave the green ag for everyone to start “gassing it” because the race is on.
While the racers move around the track at average speeds of 55 to 65 mph, the corner marshals make sure that the track remains safe and assists any rider in need. Halfway through the race, the agger raises rolled-up white and green ags and crosses them like an “X” over their head telling the riders that they are halfway through the 10lap race.
e nal lap ag is all white and will start to wave as the rst-place rider completes their ninth lap. As soon as the last-place rider goes through and
Riders cross that ag and do one more lap around with an arm raised slightly to indicate their nished status before they exit the track and back to their trailer.
At his trailer after winning the Junior Race 2, clocking a 01:16.352 on his second lap, Blaise Underhill, 8, said this was his second race on the IMI Motorsports road course.
All he thinks about is “lapping people who are way behind me.”
Sunday’s race for Underhill was his sixth race of the year. He said he is looking forward to more racing as the year continues. Supporting this racing journey with Blaise is his father, Matt Underhill. Matt and Blaise drove down from Vail to attend these regional championships, and he spoke on his inspiration for having his child take up motorcycle racing.

Colorado’s top-paying and lowest-paying jobs
The state’s annual wage data report is out
BY TAMARA CHUANG THE COLORADO SUN
Fast food cooks kept the top spot as Colorado’s lowest-paid occupation by averaging an annual wage of $33,251 last year. On the opposite end, neurologists retained their top rank as the highest, averaging $409,685, according to the latest wage report from the state’s labor department.
e annual report, based on Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics data, o ers one of the most comprehensive looks at how much workers in Colorado earn. State labor department analysts just released their take on it, providing a plethora of charts for additional context. One insight? ey looked at how hourly wages changed between 2013 and 2023.
For food preparation and servingrelated jobs, those average wages soared 78.1% in 10 years, and had
DACONO
“We’re big into ski racing and motorcycles are a really good cross-training tool,” Matt Underhill said. “We took an old dirt bike and put some rubbers (tires) on it that work for the track and tried it out.”
In the F3 class race, the bikes are more powerful. e riders have more experience under their belt.
One rider is Zane Mas, a 30-yearold organizer with Rocky Mountain Mini Moto and winner of the day’s F3 Race 2, clocking a 01:05.150 on his second lap.
Mas started racing with RMMM when he was 18.
“Rocky Mountain Mini Moto hosts seven to eight events throughout the year, sometimes adding an endurance race,” Mas said. “Rocky Mountain Mini Moto was established in 2002 and has grown in the last twenty years, adding younger riders.”
He went on to illustrate how Mo-
the highest growth rate of all major occupations for wage growth. When adjusted for employer costs, the historic increase dropped to 18.58%, which was still one of the highest pay bumps for all occupations, said Barb Wills, lead technical analyst for the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment OEWS program.
“You kind of expect high wage occupational groups to (be) increasing so this was encouraging,” she said.
“It was nice to see them catching up.”
e most obvious contributor is the state’s higher minimum wage, which is pegged to in ation. In that same 10-year period, the state’s minimum wage has shot up 75.4%, while in Denver, where the majority of food workers are, the minimum wage is up 122.2%.
ere’s more to it, said Ryan Gedney, a Denver economist known as “ e Stat Guy.” Colorado’s tight labor market before the pandemic was a big contributor as demand for workers pushed salaries higher.
In Gedney’s calculations of wage data, Colorado’s overall median annual income rose 21.9% between 2015 and 2019, ranking the

He said RMMM is hosting this quali er for MotoAmerica was “for local kids to participate in what can lead to their national series.” Each event had over 10 riders participating, and folks around the track were pleased to see that all races were getting more racers, especially in the junior class. ere was one accident on the track in the F4 class race. e rider was okay; he walked away, only a bit frustrated. e corner marshall was quick to assist the rider, and the agger began waving a red ag, notifying the other riders still racing of the occurrence of an accident on the track.

state third highest nationwide. But between 2019 and 2023, income growth of 20.8% “was outpaced by 32 other states,” he noted online.
“I think Colorado’s fall in ranking between 2019 and 2023 could be a re ection of other states increasing their minimum wages and having tighter labor markets than Colorado post-pandemic,” Gedney said in an email. “While Colorado’s minimum wage continued to increase through 2023 (and onward due to indexing), that gain was only 23% between 2019 and 2023. Additionally, Colorado’s openings-to-unemployed ratio bounced around signi cantly in 2022 and 2023, with rankings as low as sixth but as high as 36th. at said, I don’t see Colorado’s relatively low rank between 2019-2023 as discouraging.”
Other highlights from the state’s
OEWS report:
• e Boulder metro area had the highest annual average and median wages in the state, at $87,221 and $64,753, respectively. Eastern and southern Colorado areas had the lowest average wage at $54,205 and median wage of $45,220.
• e majority of the state’s labor force is in the Denver metro area, at 56.7%, or nearly 1.6 million workers. e Colorado Springs metro is second with 11.1%, or 310,390 workers.
• Colorado has 10 times more astronomers than the rest of the nation, thanks to the federal labs and universities located in the state. 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.

“ at was the idea behind pyrolysis and Bio-oil for many decades,” he said. “ e problem is that bio-oil is not very rich in energy. It’s very rich in carbon, but it has one third the energy content of crude oil. So, it’s great as a way to sequester carbon. But unfortunately, it’s not very good as an energy production or transport tool.”
Size matters
Reinhardt said one thing that stands out when comparing technologies is Charm Industrial’s tiny footprint. eir machines do the conversion, which is small and uses little water and energy from the biomass being converted in the rst place.
“So, the conversion pyrolysis process involves heating up the biomass and e ectively boiling it, which comes from the biomass itself. So, we burn a little bit of the biomass and a little bit of the char for heat to do the conversion,” he said. e machines will be located at the Fort Lupton location, but the next steps will make them smaller and portable, he said.
“It’s denser than the brine, so post-injection, it sinks even better; it reacts with itself and solidi es. So, from a permanence perspective, it is guaranteed that it will stay down there, high-quality removal.”
Biomass sourcing
Kelman said one of Charm’s rst Colorado projects uses piles of logs from a forest thinning project in McArthur Gulch on the Upper South Platte.
“It reduces the impact of post- re sediment into the river, enhances wildlife habitat for species, elk, mule deer, and wild turkey, and makes the landscape more resilient,” said Kelman.
Kelman said they have 23 listings on the company’s job page.
“We’re excited to be in Colorado, and there are many opportunities for workforce development. We can contribute signi cantly and increase the economic impact in the area.”
“ e key feature of what we’re doing is that the machines at our company are stationary. In the long run, we intend to move towards machines that are mobile and can go on the site of the biomass production, whether that’s a eld or a forest, and have a smaller footprint,” Reinhardt said.
Reinhardt said an injection site, which is less than half an acre, can story 100,000s of tons of carbon dioxide equivalent underground stored in abandoned oil and gas infrastructure. Injection sites are chosen based on the surrounding rock and soil, quality status of the wellbore, and other factors.
“ e density of the bio-mass is also important, and the bio-oil his company produces is more dense than some alternatives that seek to se-

quester gaseous Co2 underground, he said.”
“ e problem is that when you compress gaseous Co2, it’s a very buoyant light-density uid, so when they pump it underground, it’s less dense than the brine that’s down there. So it wants to come back to the surface, which means you need extraordinary geological formations to make sure it never leaks back up. What’s cool about Bio- oil is that it’s very dense.”
