Northglenn’s Fusion Swim Club gets back in the pool
Coaching legend Jim Sharp will now the lead the swim club
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Northglenn’s Fusion Swim Club is resurfacing after a six-month hiatus to provide competitive aquatics training to ages 5-18 and post-grads.
e return of the USA Swim Club is being led by the recently hired Jim Sharp, who has more than 50 years of experience in coaching and teaching young swimmers, said Justin Perdue, recreation manager for the City of Northglenn.
“He is a true pro at what he does,” Perdue said. “Jim comes here after a nine-month search, and we are lucking to have him.”
e swim club was put on hold in February because of dwindling participation, Perdue said. e decline in young swimmers was due mostly because part-time coaches headed the program. “We really needed someone to be here full-time to give swimmers fulltime attention, “Perdue said. “Jim will now be able to ll that gap.”
Sharp, a retired high school swim coach from Lafayette, Indiana, is a distinguished member of the American Swimming Coaches Association Level 4, USA Swimming and the National Interscholastic Swim Coaches Association, according to a news release.

New name for Legacy Foundation, new purpose
Westminster Community Foundation develops plan with the city to be self-sustaining
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
e Westminster Community Foundation is rebranding itself and digging in as a key resource for residents and organizations in need, say o cials.
In a bid to be more self-sustaining, the foundation recently entered a
Memorandum of Understanding with the City of Westminster which outlines a three-year plan for decreasing the city’s contribution to the salary and bene ts for the foundation’s executive director, Natalie Martinez.
e goal is for the foundation to achieve full nancial sustainability by the end of the term.
e foundation has “deep roots in our community,” Tomas HerreraMishler, the city’s parks, recreation and libraries director told the city council last month. e foundation was founded in 2001 by former West-

minster Mayor Nancy Heil and is a steadfast supporter of the city’s residents, Herrera-Mishler said.
“WCF goes beyond traditional charity by empowering individuals and organizations to create lasting positive change within the community,” he said.
After rebuilding after the COVID-19 pandemic, the foundation is entering a new phase of development focused on achieving long-term nancial sustainability over the next three years, Herrera-Misher told the city council.
e MOU – approved by the city council – calls for the city to help fund an executive director for the foundation and supervise her as well, according to the sta report.
Theatre Education at the DCPA
e city’s nancial contribution to the foundation is calculated as a percentage of the executive director’s salary and bene ts, which is about $115,329 annually, the sta report states.
Under the revised MOU, the city’s contribution would increase from 6075% in 2024; increase from 30 to 50 % in 2025 and increase from 20 to 25% in 2026, according to the city.
e executive director will remain a full-time employee of the city until the conclusion of the MOU at the end of 2026.
Name change, new look
In June, the Westminster Legacy Foundation became the Westminster Community Foundation and introduced a new logo.
“We changed the Foundation’s name to the Westminster Community Foundation to underscore our role as a catalyst for community giving that contributes to a thriving, dynamic, and prosperous city,” said Mike Lazar, the President of the Foundation’s Board of Directors, said in a news release.
e new, colorful logo features the bell tower at Westminster’s City Hall, a community landmark.
Lazar said that the Foundation’s success is dependent on bringing together key stakeholders, community leaders, and residents who believe in the strength of unity and the power of collaboration. “Together,” Lazar said, “we foster a sense of belonging in our community and inspire positive change, the very apt new tag line for
our organization.”
During the COVID pandemic, the Foundation pivoted its giving priorities to meet the basic needs of city residents, said foundation ofcials. Donors made it possible for people to feed their families and stay housed and warm and to provide help to worthwhile groups, o cials said. e Foundation funded a grant for the Westminster High School’s Mariachi Band when it was struggling to get enough quality instruments and uniforms.
It has also supported city projects that keep Westminster safe, fun, beautiful, and its students and residents active, according to a news release. It contributed to the creation of the very moving Armed Forces Memorial Garden at City Park and the Jessica Ridgeway Memorial Park and raised $200,000 for the innovative and award-winning Nature Playground at Westminster Station Park.
Lazar noted in the news release that the Foundation’s website is being updated and emphasizes that philanthropy plays a crucial role in inspiring positive change.
“We hope our new name and logo drives Westminster residents to our website and promotes giving,” he said. “Philanthropy has the power to inspire hope and optimism. Each one of us can make a di erence.”

Less Than 3% of Homeowners Took Advantage of Clean Energy Tax Credits in 2023
The Biden Administration’s Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) included generous incentives to homeowners who invest in clean energy (such as solar panels) or in energy improvements (such as improved insulation, windows or doors).
Only 3.4 million households took advantage of those tax credits nationwide on their 2023 tax returns. That was just under 2.5% of filed tax returns. In Colorado, the number was 65,810 households, or 2.9% of tax returns filed. The states with the largest participation were California, Florida and Texas, but only Florida saw over 3% of tax returns that included the tax credit (3.26%), and the other two states had rates lower than Colorado’s.
seems to be the case since 15 percent of the 3.4 million nationwide returns which took advantage of the tax credit had Adjusted Gross Incomes under $50,000. Just under half of the returns had AGIs under $100,000. The largest bracket was AGIs of $100-200,000 that numbered 1.2 million returns or 35% of all filed returns.
the installation of geothermal heat pump systems. The average tax credit taken for those systems was $12,078.
A total of $8.4 billion in tax credits was taken by taxpayers. The program is still active, and any taxpayer who wants to reduce his/her home’s operating costs should seriously consider taking advantage of the tax credits, which remain in place through 2032. I have posted a link for its provisions at http:// RealEstateToday.substack.com
One of the smallest amounts, $55.4 million in tax credits, were claimed by 36,820 households nationwide for my favorite investment, energy audits.
The average tax credit for home energy improvement such as solar panels, solar water heating and home battery installations was $5,084. The average credit for improvement in energy efficiency, such as better windows, air sealing and heat pumps, was $882.
Questions to Ask When Buying a Solar-Powered Home
I have always said that the most affordable way to “go solar” is to buy a home that’s already solar-powered. The reason is that the price differential on a solar-powered home versus a home that is not solar-powered is minimal. (Don’t invest in solar if you’re not keeping your home at least 5-10 years, because you won’t recover the cost of your investment when you sell your home.)
So, let’s say you’re buying a solar-
powered home. Most of what you need to know should be on the MLS. Is the system owned or leased, or is it owned by a 3rd party which sells the electricity to the home owner under a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)? The MLS says when it was installed and how big it is (in kilowatts), but you’ll need to find out if it still performs efficiently. You might want to hire an agent like me to represent you in your purchase.
The intention of the program is to benefit working families and small businesses to lower their utility expenses by improving their homes and offices. That
Your Best Deal on an EV Is a Used One From a Dealer
I learned the hard way that you can’t get a good deal on a used EV unless you buy it from a dealer. The reason is that there’s a 30% Clean Vehicle tax credit up to $4,000 on used EVs, but only if they are under $25,000 and purchased from a dealer. I have posted on http://RealEstateToday.substack.com a link to the IRS web page with the details on qualifying for the tax credit.
I tried selling my 2015 Model S, but no one wanted it at a reasonable price, so I ended up selling it to CarMax.
Google “Used EVs Under $25,000” and you’ll see there are lots to choose from.
Although the credits vary from one improvement to another, it is generally a 30% on the cost of the improvement, including labor. The most popular improvement is solar photovoltaic installations, claimed by 752,300 households nationwide. The second most popular improvement was insulation, followed by exterior windows and skylights and central air conditioners.
Heat pump HVAC systems and heat pump water heaters were also a popular improvement, claimed by 267,780 and 104,180 households respectively.
Just under $1 billion in tax credits were claimed by 80,730 taxpayers for

Today’s the Day—Buyer Commissions Off the MLS
August 15th is the day which Denver’s MLS, REcolorado, set for removing buyer agent compensation from all MLS listings in compliance with the March 15th settlement between the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and a class of home sellers in Missouri. NAR had set the deadline for Aug. 17th. August 15th is also the date that new state-approved contracts consistent with the NAR settlement become mandatory in Colorado. I wrote about that on Aug. 1st. (see www.JimSmithColumns.com.)
Theoretically, home buyers will start paying the brokers who represent them in the purchase of real estate, but I will be surprised if a single home buyer pays anything at all for professional representation. That’s because most sellers will agree to offer compensation, leaving any seller who does not offer compensa-
tion in an untenable position — no buyer will want to make an offer on homes that require them to pay their agent.
Keep in mind that most buyers are already heavily burdened in the transaction to buy a home, especially when they are having to finance their purchase with a mortgage at 6% or higher interest rates. They have to pay for inspection, for appraisal, for loan origination, first-year’s home insurance premium, and for escrow deposits to cover next year’s property taxes and insurance renewal. Only cash buyers are spared those heavy upfront costs.
If sellers wants to attract buyers, they will need to offer compensation. It’s just that they can’t advertise it on the MLS. They’ll still let buyers know, either on a home-specific website (like we provide), on a sign rider, or in a brochure.
We Need to Level-Up Sustainability & Recycling
Have you heard of toilet paper made from bamboo? I hadn’t either, but when I read the pitch for it, I was sold. Regular toilet paper is made, like other paper, from trees. But trees grow back slowly, whereas bamboo is famous for growing quickly. It would be a lot better for the planet if everyone switched to bamboo toilet paper. Rita and I received our first order last week, and we are sold on it. It’s the only toilet paper we’ll buy now, online from both Amazon and Costco.com. I made another discovery recently. Those plastic jars you buy for everything from yogurt to milk and milk substitutes are wrapped in plastic that must be removed in order to recycle the bottle. At left is a picture of two quart bottles, plus a third in the middle with its label removed. The back of the milk bottle contains the notice shown at right:
It’s common practice in our home now to cut those plastic wrappers off and trash them before putting the bottles in the recycling bin. Some bottles, such as Activia’s Probiotic Dailies, have a marked “zipper” on them, making it easy. Others don’t even tell you that the wrapper must be removed, and you need a pointed knife to remove the wrap.
When we were in New Zealand in February, I saw a bicycle in the window of a Nespresso storefront. Looking closer, there was a sign on it saying that the bike’s aluminum frame was made of recycled Nespresso pods. We have one of Nespresso’s coffee makers, and now we keep one of their free postage paid recycling bags under the counter in our kitchen. Call Nespresso at 855-325-5781, and they’ll mail you some. K-cups can be recycled curbside after you remove the lid and contents. Do you want to help reduce the amount of single-use plastic? It’s becoming popular for restaurant-goers to bring Tupperware containers with them for leftovers. Rita does that. Also, there’s increasing popularity of “refill shops” where you buy bulk dry and liquid groceries to refill your own bottles or containers. Here’s a map from Googling it.
Divers make a splash at Adams County Fair
BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Not all the thrills at this year’s Adams County Fair were on the dirt of the rodeo arena but in the air above the fairgrounds, thanks to some nimble Canadians.
e Adams County Fair ran from July 31 through August 4 at Riverdale Regional Park. It featured several 4-H competitions and contests, midway rides, a kids’ zone, a petting zoo, ground attractions, grandstand events with a demo derby, a truck pull, and the Charreada and Professional Bull Riders.
is year, the fair featured a unique water diving show by Montreal-based Milord Entertainment. A team of up to four divers at a time jumped from an 80-foot tower platform into a pool that was 10 feet deep.
“It’s a 20-minute family-friendly show that makes everybody laugh, from kids to adults, and has you on the edge of your seat while we have fun and jump into the pool. It’s what we do best,” said Simon Sarabura, one of the divers on the team.
“Our performers take turns every show so if you come back multiple times over the course of the day, you’ll see a di erent high divers climb the tower for every show,” Sarabura said.
e company has been in business for over 30 years and performs worldwide.
Sarabura said the high diving act requires special training. He has been training in gymnastics since he was two years old.
“All of us were athletes or acrobats from when we could walk, all of our team were also gymnasts. A few divers who are competing at the college level are getting a good summer job with us,” Sarabura said.
Rabbits, Guinea Pigs and Cavys e fair 4-H livestock competition made room for some little animals to help new fair contestants get used to showing at competitions. e 4-H kids showed a unique mammal called the Cavy. It’s not a rabbit, but it looks like a guinea pig. It’s considered livestock in South America.
Cavies are considered livestock, so kids can show their animals at the fair. e kids are judged on showmanship and their ability to articulate the features of their speci c breed, which the American Cavy Breeders Association established. ey also have to dress their Cavies in a costume contest.
Five divers jumped at once from di erent high positions from the 80-foot tower during Milford Entertainment’s performance Aug. 2 at the Adams County Fair.

A LETTER TO OUR READERS
To our loyal supporters,
ere’s a saying in journalism that newspaper production is a daily or a weekly miracle. A er the last few weeks, we’ve performed a few such miracles to make sure you can continue to receive your local newspaper.
I’m writing to update you about some short-term (potential) delivery delays, to provide information about the reasons, and to thank you for your continued support of your community newspaper.
As you may know, Colorado Community Media’s parent company, the National Trust for Local News, has been busy building a new, local commercial printing facility to serve Front Range newspapers. is move sets up our newspapers for more economic sustainability and the potential for future editorial investments – in other words, a stronger, more vibrant community news source.
Along the way, we’ve learned that launching a printing press from scratch is not for the faint of heart. During the initial project work, we discovered that the electrical capacity needed to run all of our equipment required additional (and unexpected) enhancements to our facility. We’re making great progress and are working with our partners to complete the nal electrical services. We hope to begin printing Colorado Community Media’s newspapers there in early September.
Given the unexpected closure of the Berthoud press facility this month, we have been scrambling to nd alternatives to print our mailed newspapers during the 3-4 week timeframe expected before our own press launches. Fortunately, we’ve found a temporary out-of-state alternative that will allow us to continue providing you the print newspaper you’ve come to expect from us while we work to get our own press operational. What that means, however, is that you could experience delays of one to four days in receiving your printed paper.
Know this: We’re dedicated to ensuring you get your newspaper throughout this interim period. If you have questions, please feel free to reach out to hello@coloradocommunitymedia.com, or visit our website, which is always up-to-date with the latest news and information in your community.
We’re hopeful the disruptions to our readers and customers will be minimal and deeply appreciate your support of local journalism.

Professional Bull Riding electrifies Adams County Fair
Local bull riders enjoy Colorado camaraderie
BY JIMMIE SEARFOSS
SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
Anyone can buy a ticket for a ride at the Adams County Fair, but when it comes to bulls, their ticket is better o three steel fences away.
On Aug. 1, 19 Professional Bull Riding representatives stood within those cages for the pleasure of sitting atop a 1,500-pound animal that doesn’t want them there for the chance at thousands of dollars.
Like horse racing, these animals’ names range from laughable to intimidating. Charlie Hayes, a rider from South Fork, sat atop Hairy Warts for his run. One second after nodding his head to start, Hayes no longer sat upon Mr. Warts.
Short runs are not unusual, but leaving completely healthy is.
“It was de nitely tough,” Hayes said. “It’s always good when you get out of the arena on your own two feet. Sometimes it’s not easy to have a smile on your face, it’s just the blessing of being able to do it every day and go to the next spot.
In rodeo culture, there is usually a strong camaraderie among the competitors. Risking a horn to the gut on a daily basis doesn’t leave much emotional room for beef backstage, but there is a special relationship amongst the small group that hails from Colorado.
“Keeping everybody supported is the one thing that I see with regards to Colorado and bull riders is the support is always there,” Hayes said. “It’s like that best friend that you had in high school where you don’t see him for four or ve years, but as soon as you see him, you pick up right where you left o .” at support goes a long way, especially in a sport as physically taxing as bull riding. Shortly after getting bucked o at the Adams County Fair, Hayes and several other riders packed into a truck to go do it again the next day in North Dakota. e athletes are forced to prioritize their time between attending to injuries and sleeping between their driving shifts. e bond among the riders plays a large role in keeping spirits high in the bullpen.
Hayes is one of ve riders hailing from the Centennial State that competed, another out-of-the-ordinary part of the event. Hayes trav-
els across the country to compete in near-daily rodeos often sparsely populated with Coloradans.
“With regards to Colorado and bull riders, there’s not a lot of us,” Hayes
said. “You’re going to go down to Texas and everybody in their brother has either been on a bull or knows somebody that rides bulls so it’s a little bit interesting.”
“ e camaraderie of just being able to pick up right where you left o and have a smiling face wherever you are at the next one,” Hayes said. “ at’s what’s pretty big for me.”

ose who competed at the Adams County Fair are most of the same Coloradans Hayes sees while in season, but he rarely gets to see a home crowd.
e PBR tour normally stops in the
Rocky Mountain state twice a year, but this season only has one event in Colorado. e opportunity to be less than an hour from home made the one-stop a special one. “ at was amazing, man. Being able to have a whole head of sleep on you and wake up in your own bed and be able to go to the bull ride,” Hayes said. “It was de nitely nice coming back to Colorado and being home.”

New suit targets Suncor
Earthjustice is suing Suncor on behalf of community groups
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Commerce City has been pummeled so long by toxins spewed by local energy companies — including Suncor Energy — that some residents have almost grown used to the bad water and air that surround them every day, City Councilor Renee M. Chacon said this week.
Chacon hopes a lawsuit led in
U.S. District Court this week will make Suncor answer for its environmental abuses. e suit asks a federal judge to force the Suncor re nery to comply with the Clean Air Act, mitigate and o set harm done to the public for violating the federal law and assess nes for each violation of the Clean Air Act up to $121,275 per day. e lawsuit lists 28 speci c claims against Suncor and claims that “Suncor consistently and continuously violates the air pollution limits imposed by regulations and conditions of its air permits.”
Chacon said in a news release that nes may not be a big enough punishment for Suncor.
“Commerce City has been the sacri ce zone for corporations like Suncor for so long, the abuse to my community has been normalized and even expected to happen for Colorado’s economy,” said Chacon, who is also a member of the activist group GreenLatinos. “No more normalizing this level of cumulative pollution for any community, Suncor should be prosecuted for more than just nes, especially in a state that has acknowledged environmental justice should be a human right to access clean air, land, water, and a better quality of life for all.”

e complaint claims that Suncor has repeatedly violated the Clean Air Act by failing to control hazardous emissions from its Commerce City renery, resulting in long-lasting harm to surrounding communities in north Denver. Earthjustice led the lawsuit on behalf of GreenLatinos, the Sierra Club, and 350 Colorado. Before ling the lawsuit, Earthjustice and its clients documented over 9,000 instances of Clean Air Act violations, according to the lawsuit. at includes exceeding federal limits of airborne particulate matter, toxic emissions like benzene and
formaldehyde, and other dangerous pollutants, according to an Earthjustice news release.
In 2020 alone, the Suncor re nery emitted approximately 20 tons of hazardous air pollutants, 500 tons of carbon monoxide, 50 tons of nitrogen oxides, 125 tons of particulate matter, 450 tons of volatile organic compounds, and 230 tons of sulfur dioxide, the news release states.
Suncor’s pollutants pose an ongoing health threat to the re nery’s neighbors, predominantly communities of color who are more likely to be economically disadvantaged. Residents of neighboring zip codes su er disproportionately from high rates of asthma, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes, according to the news release.

Earthjustice clients and those impacted by the Suncor re nery sought meaningful enforcement action against the re nery from the state of Colorado and the Environmental Protection Agency before taking legal action. e EPA recently issued a Notice of Violation to Suncor about some of the same violations in the groups’ suit, the news release states.
e groups seek to require remediation for Suncor’s extensive violations and to deter the re nery from continued Clean Air Act violations going forward with the lawsuit, the news release states.
“Our members have been very concerned about the pollution from Suncor for years,” said Heidi Leathwood with 350 Colorado. “ eir health concerns have been ignored for too long. No matter how many times Suncor is sanctioned they continue the same pattern of exceeding their permit limits without regard for the community. It’s time for that to end.”
“We are exercising our right to challenge Suncor, who has been embold-
ened by a regulatory enforcement system that has not been successful in bringing it into compliance,” said Ean omas Tafoya, Colorado State Director with GreenLatinos in the news release.
“Our members and my mother in North Denver are impacted. We have made a commitment to continue to use more sophisticated legal strategies in self-defense for the community,” omas Tafoya said.
A Suncor spokesman could not be reached for comment.
EPA spokeswoman Marisa Lubeck said in a statement that federal and state governments recently issued a joint 140-page Notice of Violation to Suncor for extensive, alleged air violations. “ is notice is the most signi cant step that EPA has taken against Suncor for repeated alleged air violations and more information is available in the EPA/Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment July press release. We are also reviewing a copy of the complaint led by Earthjustice yesterday,” Lubeck said.
VOICES
It’s not Westminster’s first rodeo at downtown building
Some might say “same song; second verse” as the Westminster City Council approved a lease with Barquentine to develop the former Rodeo Market into a tap room with “unique food offerings and limited wine and spirits.”
Based on a previous neighborhood area survey, people still would like to see a restaurant in the former grocery store. So, city council had directed sta to recruit a reputable business to address the neighborhood’s desires. It’s a tall ask given the cost to rehab the building and attract a viable restaurant to locate on 73rd Avenue.
After extensive outreach and marketing e orts, the prospects were culled to three choices with Barquentine deemed by sta and council to be the best choice.
Barquentine is a neighborhood brewery located in Edgewater which leases less than 5,000 square feet for its tap room and a 15-barrel brewing system. According to sta , “ ey brew a wide variety of hand-crafted beers with a specialization in authentic Belgian inspired beers, all served in a friendly and relaxed setting that invites community and spirited conversation. Barquentine does not currently o er food at the Edgewater
It mysti es me, this perfervid belief in nuclear energy that I see in parts of Colorado.
Just weeks ago, the commissioners in one Western Slope county added their support for nuclear. ey noted that 65% of residents of northwest Colorado support nuclear. Conferences in Montrose and Pueblo devoted ample time to nuclear cheerleaders. ey promise high-paying jobs and an ample tax base.
Well, heck, I believe it would be nice to have a Lamborghini when I replace my used Toyota Prius in a few years. But can I a ord a $300,000 car?
When extolling the technology, nuclear proponents rarely discuss cost, and then mostly in response to ques-
location as they are surrounded by a food hall housed within the market.”
e lease calls for the preparation and sale of food at the Westminster site without any brewing operations. All beer would come from the Edgewater facility and all food for the Edgewater tap room would come from the Westminster location. is will allow the operator to leverage the brewing and kitchen assets at both locations.
Cost benefit remains an issue for the city e cost to rehabilitate the Rodeo Supermarket building continues to be the 800-pound gorilla in the room for any lease on this historic building. e most recent cost estimate is $3.5 million.
Under the lease, the city would be responsible for certain core and shell renovations. ese are primary structural and building components such as walls, windows, roof and mechanical systems.
e tenant will be responsible for all tenant nish costs which are interior improvements a tenant makes to a commercial rental property. All operating costs including utilities and maintenance will be paid by the tenant.
e lease is for a ten-year initial term with two, ve-year options. Rent for the renewal options will have annual rent escalations. Monthly base rent starting in the second year would be $1,790.83 per month. By the 10th year, it would be $5,372.50 per month.
Residents in the “Heart of Westminster” have consistently told city council that they want a restaurant as a spark plug to help bring renewed economic vitality back to the area. e rst attempt with the pub was quashed by the pandemic. Now, a few years later the risk is still there, but the two parties are willing to embark upon an e ort to give new life to the area. It’s a major investment for both parties with the cost estimate at $3.5 million. Let’s hope this investment will pay dividends for all concerned.
Westminster’s historic markers
Here’s a fun question for our readers. How many historical markers are
there in Westminster? What do you think - 10, 15, 20 or maybe more? ere were 22 markers installed with two additional markers that were to be installed. As you might expect, most of them are located in the original part of the city. e purpose of the markers was and still is to call attention to a historic site in the community. It could entail a building, a person or a place.
e Westminster Historical Society did extensive work on the program and the speci c sites that were marked. e historic markers were created by Denver graphic artist David Clune. “A tour of them will take you on a journey of Westminster’s vibrant past.”
I bet you will know a lot of them, but there are a few “sleepers” that could be challenging. I am going to sprinkle the di erent markers among several future columns as the narrative on each one can get a little long for this column. I hope you enjoy learning about these historical markers as history plays such an important role in our communities and people’s lives.
Nuclear cheerleading is fine – but what about the cost?
tions. Nuclear has a horrible track record.
Two units in Georgia recently were completed at a cost of $35 billion, more than double the original projections. Construction of two reactors in South Carolina was halted in 2017 after repeated cost overruns. Much hope was pinned on small modular reactors, but then Utah utilities in 2023 pulled the plug on NuScale.
Bill Gates was in Wyoming recently to ing a shovel of dirt at Kemmerer. ere, TerraPower hopes to deliver
a nuclear reactor by 2030. Gates has committed $1 billion and plans to invest another $1 billion but told a TV interview that he expects the project to ultimately cost $10 billion.
Could Xcel Energy justify investing $10 billion in a reactor after it closes its two coal-burning units at Hayden or its two in Pueblo? How about TriState Generation and Transmission, when the last coal unit closes at Craig in 2028?
Chief executives of both Xcel and Tri-State say they can conceive of nuclear power being part of Colorado’s energy future – but not until costs come down. Duane Highley, chief executive of Tri-State, Colorado’s second-largest electrical generator,
said recently he sees nuclear becoming competitive somewhere between 2035 and 2040.
“We need to see a couple of these built and prove that they can be built cost-e ectively, then everyone will be lined up. Everyone wants to be the rst in line to be serial No. 2 – including us. But we’re a co-op. We can’t take that kind of nancial risk with our members’ money,” Highley said. Robert Kenney, the chief executive of Xcel Colorado, told me he does not see nuclear as an option for at least several years. e federal government may need to backstop it, he said, limiting risk to individual utilities.

Here is the “unveiling” of one of my favorite markers to get us started.
Two-bit racetrack to Boulder
Located on the west side of Lowell Boulevard, just south of Turnpike Drive in the plaza, this marker discusses the construction of a toll road to Boulder, rst proposed in 1949, which stirred controversy in Westminster.
e “Westminster Journal” newspaper called it a “two-bit racetrack to Boulder” that no one would pay to travel on but “football fans and drunks.” e road divided Westminster in half and would have stopped the City’s growth if an underpass at Lowell had not been built.
Tolls were removed from the DenverBoulder Turnpike in the late 1960s because high tra c enabled bonds to be paid o earlier than expected.” So, now you know that U.S. 36 was known as the “two-bit raceway to Boulder.”
I remember reading that then-Mayor Francis Day said “the toll road would be the death knell of Westminster.”
Council reviews possible fee increases for 2025 budget
It’s budget season for Colorado municipalities which includes both revenues and expenditures. Westminster Council members reviewed possible fee adjustments for next year’s budget at last week’s study session.
e city’s street paving is currently rated at 57 which is “Fair” or acceptable. e current fee generates $8.6 million annually which falls way short of supporting an optimal street system.
Option #1 would be the status quo of $6 per month.
Option #2 would increase the fee to $7 per month and increase the nonresidential fee to $20 per account per month generating $9.4 million per year.
Option #3 would go to $7. on residential and establish a non-residential fee rate of $10 per 1,000 square feet per month. is option would generate approximately $10.2 million annually.
Sta estimates that $16 million is needed to hold the current score due to in ationary costs. is amount is an impossible leap to maintain the status quo.
e city su ers from too much deferred maintenance with in ation and catching up is not nancially or politically realistic. Two other fees will be re-
ported later.
City Council will need to make decisions when they are reviewing the whole budget. Remember, there could be a tax question on the November ballot regarding re stations.
Trump skips September debate with Harris
My, my it is amazing how quickly things can change in the political world. Not too long ago, Trump had his eye on an agreed upon televised debate with President Biden for September 10.
Trump and his campaign team thought it was going to be a blood bath and perhaps nish o the incumbent. And then the world turned upside down and Biden withdrew from the race.
Now, Trump’s team’s strategy was out the window and what would they do with this new opponent? A BlackIndian female who is much younger, energized and has a lot of debating experience while serving as a prosecuting attorney and then Attorney General for the state of California. e ball game had changed.
No longer could Trump insult “Sleepy Joe” and his verbal errors. Vice President Kamala Harris was now in the boxing ring with the “older” Donald Trump who has been known to make his own verbal errors let alone his practice of verbal slurs.
e stage was set for a serious debate. However, Trump has backed out of the scheduled debate. Instead, he wants to debate Harris on Fox News. is is likely to be a stando with no debate at all. Trump contends that the agreed upon September 10 was “terminated” when Biden dropped out of the race.
American voters deserve an opportunity to take stock of both candidates
If there are not to be any televised debates before the November 5th election, it’s a slap in the face to the American public. Voters should have the opportunity to see both in action in a debate to size up their mental strength, alertness, knowledge of the facts, being under stress and a lot more.
Trump is running scared and is attempting to set the rules and place to suit his fancy. By his own actions, he is admitting that he doesn’t want to take the risk of confronting Harris! is says a lot.

Kenneth Andrew Ehli September 5, 1949 - July 24, 2024
BY AUDREY BRICE AND LOURDES CAMARILLO SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
On a hospital bed, surrounded by sterile equipment and isolated, the anxious await a surgery that will alter their lives.
In pursuit of motherhood, many women have turned to In-Vitro-Fertilization (IVF).
Samantha Bronson, a children’s youth minister at a church near Littleton, has dealt with negative thoughts and emotions regarding her infertility.
“A lot of questions came to me about my spirituality as well,” Bronson said. “Like, ‘Is this God saying something to me?’ And, in my darkest moments, ‘Is God punishing me?’ I don’t believe that’s how God works at all, but those were the feelings that were coming up for me.”
Samantha Sullivan of Fort Collins wanted a child, and her mom had called a center to talk about taking steps toward fertility treatment.
“She knew that my dream has always been to have kids, and so I was grateful,” Sullivan said. “But I also didn’t really know what I was getting myself into.”
Emily Heizer-Kochman, from Sacramento, California, is on her ninth round of IVF.
“ e whole thing’s been brutal. e emotional ups and downs are just exhausting, and any time there’s a sliver of hope, it just seems like it’s a trick,” Heizer-Kochman said. “Something worse happens when you’re expecting the good news.”
For Tanya Knepp of Florence, the costs “impacted us in a lot of ways emotionally, mentally.”
Knepp and her husband paid for IVF without the help of insurance. While Colorado law mandates IVF coverage, Knepp’s insurance skipped around this law because her company’s insurance is self-funded.
“It was 100% out of pocket,” said Knepp. e World Health Organization says one in six women globally experience infertility.
A single IVF cycle can cost $15,000 to $30,000, creating another challenge for many.
Bronson, Sullivan, Heizer-Kochman and Knepp shared their experiences with the University of Colorado’s News Corps in hopes that their stories would help other women and their partners as they navigate the di cult path of IVF in hopes of having a baby.
Samantha Bronson, God and science
In 2020, Bronson and her husband, Luke, decided to start trying to conceive. By the end of 2021, the couple still wasn’t expecting, so Samantha went to her OBGYN for answers.
Bronson, of Aurora, was diagnosed with unexplained infertility, meaning that despite appearing capable of conceiving, she has been unable to do so. e only test Samantha could not undergo was an egg health test, which requires an egg retrieval.
“I wanted there to be a reason,” said Bronson.
Bronson started trying to conceive through intrauterine insemination (IUI), a type of arti cial
insemination where a long tube is used to put the semen directly into the uterus. Bronson tried this method of conception four times.
“We were paying out of pocket for those each month, which was racking up a lot. So our fertility doctor recommended we switch over to IVF,” said Bronson.
e switch would cost around $30,000.
Bronson felt like they wouldn’t be able to pursue that path at anytime soon, and after going through multiple rounds of IUI, she needed a break.
SEE THE SILENCE, P17

THE SILENCE
However, this changed when Luke switched careers, as his new job’s insurance would be able to cover the cost of IVF.
“We were ready to be parents,” said Bronson. “And because of (Luke’s) job and the fact that (his) insurance does cover it, that’s when we were able to pull the trigger on (IVF) without having to stress about going into more debt.”
roughout her struggle with infertility, Bronson has felt a strain on some of her relationships. She has had friends hesitant to tell her they are expecting because they don’t want to upset her, along with people just saying the wrong things.
“A lot of people don’t really know how to talk about infertility, so they’ll say some really stupid things. I am in a Christian community, and sometimes people will ask me if I’ve prayed about it,” said Bronson.
Bronson has chosen to keep her infertility journey largely private. While she believes she may share her experience once she has dealt with it, she exercises caution, particularly within her congregation, mindful of her position and the potential impact.
“As pastors, we’re taught to share vulnerably with people, and at the same time, the people that we are serving and helping, we don’t want them to feel bad for us,” said Bronson. “So, I don’t want it to be that somebody who is expecting gets worried or weird about sharing that with me because they
are worried I would feel upset about it. Whereas this is my job and calling to walk through that with people.”
Leading up to her rst egg retrieval, Bronson was feeling a variety of emotions.
“I feel excited and nervous and worried and happy, and quite literally what feels like every emotion I could feel,” said Bronson. “ ere’s still grief in there, too. is isn’t what I planned, I wish it would have been di erent.”
On April 2, Bronson underwent her egg retrieval, and 17 eggs were retrieved, but no answers about her unexplained infertility diagnosis were discovered. e couple would get nine embryos, but upon further genetic testing for abnormalities only seven were viable for transfer.
“I had a lot of feelings. One of those feelings was that I did not want nine or seven children. at’s a lot,” said Bronson. “I was also excited about how successful it was and that this means that theoretically, I will never have to do an egg retrieval again.”
Bronson was ordained as a minister in June and her embryo transfer was set for mid July.
Samantha Sullivan, cancer survivor
When Sullivan’s journey with IVF began, her mind was far from fertility preservation, as she waited to nd out if she had breast cancer.
“I didn’t even think about that prior because I was so focused on: am I getting diagnosed with breast cancer?” said Sullivan.
She was devastated. She was unable to think about the trajectory of her life, but her mother’s call to a fertility treatment center put her on track.
It was on Valentine’s Day of 2020 that Sullivan received her diagnosis: stage two, grade three, triplenegative breast cancer. e nancial burden of IVF also quickly revealed itself.
“I remember we had to pay in full up-front, and I think it was something like $15,000 or $20,000 and I was like, ‘Well, I don’t have that so I can’t do this,’ and my mom was like, ‘We’ll talk about it. We’re doing it. Let’s go,’” Sullivan said.
“I didn’t know if I was going to survive, I didn’t know if my husband was going to become my husband,” said Sullivan. “We were engaged at the time. I gave him an out, and he stayed with me.”
Sullivan and Patrick would later marry on the rst anniversary of Sullivan being cancer-free on Oct. 9, 2021.
Before chemotherapy, Sullivan underwent two egg retrievals which gave them eight embryos viable for transfer. Only three were free of the BRCA 1 gene, which can increase a person’s chance of developing breast cancer.
Two years after her double mastectomy, Sullivan was able to undergo her rst embryo transfer. She went through three embryo transfers. One ended in a miscarriage and two didn’t implant.
Sullivan would have to come to terms with her only remaining embryos having the BRCA 1 gene.
After all those losses, Sullivan decided to take some time away from trying to become pregnant and also decided to switch from her previous clinic to the Conceptions Reproductive Associates of Colorado.
Tanya and Leslie Knepp walk in their neighborhood in Florence. “IVF was the only thing remaining for us to try,” Tanya Knepp said.

THE SILENCE
Instead of spending a couple thousand dollars to transport the embryos there, Sullivan rented a tank and transferred them herself.
“My mom and I drove down, dropped the tank o at CCRM in Lone Tree. ey loaded the embryos up and I bucked them into the car and drove them over,” said Sullivan.
At this new clinic, Sullivan went through her fourth embryo transfer, which ended in a miscarriage.
“Every single failed transfer has been absolutely devastating, and of course, every pregnancy I have lost a child. So, it’s been very di cult,” said Sullivan.
Later on, Sullivan went in for a fth embryo transfer. e procedure itself went well, but a home pregnancy test she took came back negative. e clinic con rmed the result.
e couple still has two embryos that their current clinic could transfer. However, they have begun looking into using an egg donor to make an embryo.
“I don’t know if I can keep going through loss,” said Sullivan.
Sullivan works as a postpartum nurse, a di cult position to have while going through infertility.
“It is really hard to take care of patients that don’t want the baby, or are upset that they’re pregnant, or are abusing their bodies – intentionally or unintentionally – which then a ects the baby, when I’m trying to do everything that I can and everything right to have a child,” Sullivan said.
Tanya Knepp, one little chance
Knepp and her husband, Leslie, have been trying to conceive for ve years, and recently started their rst round of IVF.
“We were very con dent that – aside from something miraculous and out of the ordinary – we weren’t just gonna get pregnant with less invasive means, and our doctors are pretty con dent of that too,” said Knepp.
e couple had to make a lot of sacri ces – living in a less-than-desirable neighborhood and driving older cars – to a ord IVF. And, after selling their last house, they were able to a ord their rst cycle of IVF.
When Knepp started, she got the news that she had low ovarian reserve. is diagnosis means a woman has fewer eggs in her ovaries compared to others her age, making conceiving more di cult.
During her egg retrieval, Knepp’s emotions were mixed, partly due to the cost of the procedure.
“I was de nitely feeling hopeful, but at the same time, just scared,” said Knepp, adding that part of her fear came from the nancial aspect because they were spending $5,000 for one cycle of IVF with no guaranteed success.
e retrieval returned seven eggs, but only one ended up being viable for transfer.
“We have one embryo. We’ve got one little chance waiting for us,” said Knepp. “So that’s how I feel about that embryo now, just glad we had that chance.”
As the couple wants more than one child, they have decided that with Knepp’s diagnosis of low ovarian reserve, they should attempt another egg retrieval now before attempting an embryo transfer.
“You’re not crazy for wanting to do this. e hope of bringing a child into this world is so valid,” said Knepp.
Emily Heizer-Kochman, the ninth try
“I had worries that we would have trouble conceiving another baby – or that we were on a short timeline – just because of my age,” said Heizer-Kochman.
Unfortunately, Heizer-Kochman was right to worry, as she would begin struggling with secondary infertility, a condition in which someone is unable to conceive or carry to term after already giving birth to a child without any fertility treatments.
Heizer-Kochman had ve miscarriages.
“I don’t know that you ever forget that pain. I don’t know,” said Heizer-Kochman. “You gure out how to live with it. I didn’t really do anything to deal with it, I just tried to move on.”
e couple ended up going to CNY, a fertility clinic in Colorado Springs. e cheapest option they could nd in the United States, which costed roughly $3,700 per cycle.
Out of eight rounds of IVF, none of the three embryos retrieved were deemed viable due to chromosomal abnormalities.
On Feb. 16, Heizer-Kochman went in for an egg retrieval for her ninth and nal round of IVF.
e procedure only returned a single egg. e couple wanted to try one last time to ensure they had done all they could, but Heizer-Kochman wasn’t putting much hope into their single egg.
ree weeks later, the couple received the results that their latest embryo would not be viable.
ey continue to work towards having another child with the help of a friend who has agreed to be their egg donor.
“We got nothing out of it, other than the courage to move on,” said Heizer-Kochman. “If we hadn’t done IVF and spent that much and tried all those times, I don’t know that we would be emotionally ready to move on.”
e couple has spent around $50,000 on medical expenses.
“My biggest takeaway is that it doesn’t always work,” said Heizer-Kochman. “It’s not necessarily a faster track to a baby. ere are some people who do one cycle and get everything they need. at’s not everybody.”
A threat to IVF
Navigating IVF is already challenging, but the recent Alabama ruling has added another layer of di culty. It’s evident that many people lack understanding of the complexities involved with IVF. Although none of the women interviewed were from Alabama, some still express concerns about the misconceptions regarding IVF highlighted by the ruling.

12 Tablecloths Art Installation Honors Women
Most people don’t spend much time thinking about the dining room table unless it’s a holiday or special event. But for many women who were enslaved throughout the US, the dining room table of their enslavers was the focus of their day.
Artist and historian Chloé Duplessis was introduced to ve of these women during a tour of e Whitney Institute, a plantation museum in her home state of Louisiana. eir names are Lucy Clark, Francoise, Julienne, Sally and Marie and they were enslaved at the plantation in the late 1800’s.
eir stories and living conditions inspired Duplessis to think about the many tablecloths these women had to clean every day, and how she could reclaim the tablecloths in a way that honored them.
“ e average meal required 12 tablecloths. e people in the main house had three meals a day and those meals had to be served on crisp, white linen,” she said. “I had to face the fact that these women’s whole existence was minimized and regulated to present a measure of quality of life to the people in the main house, at the expense of their own.”
As Duplessis started working on the installation that would become 12 Ta-
COMING ATTRACTIONS
blecloths, which is on display at the Center for Colorado Women’s History Museum at the Byers-Evans House, 1310 Bannock St. in Denver, through Monday, Sept. 30, she heard the story of another woman, named Myrtle Grant, who worked at the house in the 1940s and 1950s.
And she knew the installation needed a sixth table setting.
“Myrtle did the only job a woman of color could do at that house, and it was a source of pride at the time to be a laundress there,” Duplessis said. “ ere’s a tendency with people who were servants to only focus on their service, but these were people who had lives and experiences of their own, so I wanted to make sure I included Mrytle’s life outside of her work in the piece.”
e resulting installation is set up in the house’s dining room and includes original art pieces by Duplessis and noted visual artist and ceramicist Katie McWeeney, narrative panels and an online audio tour.
e table settings carve out a place of rest and welcome for these six women, and honor their service and sacri ce, Duplessis explained. Burlap is used to represent people of color through the fabric’s resiliency and versatility. e handcrafted plates around the table feature ebony ecks representative of the African Diaspora, and are made from clay from North Carolina, a hub of the Transatlantic Slave Trade.
Everyone will come away from the exhibit with their own meaning, but the intention was to invite contemplation of the luxuries so many take for granted and to celebrate the labor of women from every generation.
e exhibit pairs beautifully with a tribute to underrated musical keystone Sister Rosetta arpe that Duplessis has on display at the Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library, 2401 Welton St. at exhibit runs until Saturday, Aug. 31, and there will be a special public closing ceremony from 2 to 4 p.m. that day.
“I want the feminine to be honored and exalted in both installations,” Duplessis said. “I hope visitors will come away with a deeper understanding of what women have had to endure throughout history.”
Denver Film’s annual Summer Scream event at Lakeside Amusement Park is one of the best seasonal traditions. e event is held from 6 to 11 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 22, at the park, 4601 Sheridan Blvd. and this year’s theme is Winona Forever, in celebration of actress Winona Ryder. e fundraiser will feature Ryder cosplay, art, trivia and games, and even a scavenger hunt.

Fall sports: Key takeaways from CHSAA Media Day in Denver
Flag football and more metro-area prep sports news
BY JOHN RENFROW JRENFROW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A day after boys golf teams o cially were allowed to practice, marking the start of the 2024 fall sports season, dozens of high school athletes from around the state descended on Empower Field in Denver for the Colorado High School Activities Association’s fall sports Media Day.
Headlining fall sports this season is ag football, which will be introduced with two classi cations in 2024-25. Previously, there was a two-year pilot program with Colorado high schools. But in April, Colorado became the 11th state to sanction the sport. It is the inaugural season for the sport in Colorado.
Girls ag football becomes the 14th fall activity and 21st activity for girls recognized by CHSAA. Defending champions Arvada West and Chateld, Cherry Creek, Mountain View, Valor Christian and Vista Ridge high schools sent teams to speak to the media.
“Flag football is the fastest-growing sport nationally, especially for girls,” said CHSAA Commissioner Mike Krueger. “So, we’re excited to be part of that with a number of states that have now sanctioned it.”
Flag football
Arvada West defeated Cherry Creek 34-14 in the nal of the 16-team state championship tournament last October. e Wildcats nished the season with a perfect 25-0 record. ey were the rst team to speak.
e team addressed several changes coming to the sport in its inaugural season as a fully sanctioned sport. What was a noncontact sport the past two pilot years now brings more physical changes, including punting, screen blocking, a one-yard rush line for defenses and a major change in eld size. Instead of a 60-by-30-yard eld, it’ll now be 80-by-40 yards. e game will
be more physical this upcoming season as blocking will be a big emphasis on o ense.
“Luckily a bunch of our players were able to play summer ball with those new rules,” Chat eld coach Alexis Rosholt said. “I think the two main differences are going to be the one-yard rush, the unlimited rushers as well as blocking. Your quarterback is going to basically have a second to get the ball o . Our receivers are going to have to do some blocking before getting into routes.”
Football
Broom eld, Columbine, Delta, Erie, Haxtun, Holy Family, Limon, Ralston Valley and Stratton high schools sent representatives from their football teams to speak with the media.
For Ralston Valley, the team is tired of seeing teams that beat them in the championship game.
“Really, the past two years, both teams that we lost to went to the state championship,” Ralston Valley Head Coach Jared Yannacito said. “So, you just continue to be consistent. You continue to show up. You continue to
uni ed bowling, softball, girls volleyball, cross country, spirit and student leadership representatives all spoke to the media.
Evergreen golf’s Liam Houlihan is excited to have everybody back this fall to try and win another team title. Houlihan and his teammate Tyler Long nished tied for second in 4A individual nishes last season.
Valor Christian volleyball has gone 58-0 in the past two seasons and won back-to-back 5A titles in Colorado.
But the Eagles know competition gets stronger each year and they aren’t ready to overlook anyone.
“I would say every time out there is going to be our competition. We just need to get in the gym and work,” Chloe Elarton, a senior and University of Georgia commit said. “I just to savor every moment, every win, every loss, every practice. It’s going to be a really special season for us seniors and I just want to cherish that.”
focus on one game at a time, one week at a time. We don’t overlook any of our opponents.”
e Mustangs will have to replace former quarterback Logan Madden, who is now a freshman player at Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas. Yannacito said he can’t replace Madden other than having his team come together to make up for his production.
Last year, Columbine dethroned Cherry Creek as the 5A champion. It was the Rebels’ sixth 5A state championship since 1999 and the rst since 2011. All six of the Rebels’ state football titles have been coached by Andy Lowry, who wasn’t in attendance.
But his players showed up as champs and are ready to repeat if they can.
“Every senior group at Columbine steps up,” said Brennan Goodwin, the starting quarterback at Columbine. “We’re excited to do that.”
Other sports
Other fall sports teams were in attendance also ready to kick o the 2024 season.
Field hockey, gymnastics, boys golf,
Lutheran has won three straight 4A softball titles in Colorado. Meredith Barnhart said this year, preparation is more emotional this year.
“We need to make up a lot of that momentum and success that we’re used to,” Barnhart said. Rallying as a team will be huge. ere’s always the hitting in the cages and taking ground balls, so we’ll get that going here pretty soon and hopefully hit the road quick.”
Kinley Wolfe of Cherry Creek cross country just wants to improve.
“I’m just hoping to do the best I can and try to be better than I did last season,” Wolfe said. “I’m just trying to be a strong competitor this year that people are looking at.”
But no matter the sport, the athletes said they’re all inspired by the recent uptick in the popularity of women’s sports.
“I think, for me, sports have allowed me to nd who I am,” said Colorado Academy eld hockey player Addie Chandler. “So, having these big stars like Caitlin Clark, Simone Biles, having these really cool role models to look after has been really cool.”

Fair enough. Federal subsidies have helped wind and solar get on their feet. Renewables are starting to catch up to the subsidies for fossil fuels. Nuclear has also received help. Renewables will take us much of the way to 100% emission-free energy, but nobody thinks they will take us all the way. A study commissioned by the Colorado Energy O ce last year sees natural gas plants delivering a small but vital component of a ordable, reliable and near-100% emissions-free electricity by 2040. We know the technology. It’s not cheap, with new plants costing roughly $500 million. But neither is it a $10 billion experiment. New ways to store excess renewable energy could help. Xcel is likely to be participating in a test of iron-air tech-

nology at Pueblo that could store energy for 100 hours. Both Colorado and Xcel are very interested in green hydrogen. Companies hope to produce new pumped-storage hydropower projects near Steamboat and Craig in the 2030s.
Or consider geothermal. Conventional ground-source geothermal employs coils eight to 10 feet below ground or relatively shallow wells to tap the constant approximately 55-degree heat for heating and cooling of buildings.
Colorado Mesa University heats and cools 800,000 square feet with the technology. It reduces emissions and saves money. e only question in Colorado is how fast this technology will scale up to displace natural gas.
Enhanced geothermal, the type used to produce electricity, is another matter. California gets 10.1% of its electricity from enhanced geothermal. It also has had volcanic eruptions
ere’s really no two ways about it. Since the band’s formation in 2003 they’ve cemented a reputation as one of the best live shows around and that designation is well-earned. e blend of singer/songwriter Craig Finn’s sharply drawn stories and the band’s rocking music is irresistible.
e Hold Steady is stopping by Denver as part of their Constructive Summer tour, and are playing at the Bluebird eater, 3317 E. Colfax Ave., at 8 p.m. on ursday, Aug. 22, Friday, Aug. 23, and Saturday, Aug. 24. Everyone should experience this band live at least once, so get tickets at www. axs.com.

as recently as 1917 (Lassen). Colorado’s most recent volcanic eruption (Dotsero) occurred 4,000 years ago.
Colorado has no electricity from geothermal, although Gov. Jared Polis contends Colorado could get 4% to 8% of its electricity from geothermal by 2040. Drillers have shown great ingenuity at unlocking oil and gas deposits in Colorado and elsewhere. Can they instead tap the heat deep underground to a ordably produce electricity when we need it, to complement wind and solar?
Who knows whether enhanced geothermal will be part of Colorado’s emissions-free electricity, whether it can compete. Deep geothermal drilling may be too expensive but it won’t be a $10 billion gamble. Cheerleaders for nuclear need to acknowledge that risk. And then we can talk about the problem of waste disposal.
