Town real estate purchase scrutinized Urban renewal authority buys Parker Water building By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ coloradocommunitymedia.com A decision by town leaders to purchase land in downtown Parker and resell it to a buyer of their choosing has raised questions about the appropriate use of taxpayer money. The Town of Parker announced March 27 that the Parker Authority for Reinvestment, an entity created by town council in 2006 to eliminate blight and revitalize the downtown area, approved a resolution to acquire the Parker Water and Sanitation District headquarters on the northeast corner of Mainstreet and Victorian Drive. The water district is consolidating administrative operations into its facility near E-470 and South Parker Road. The head-

quarters building was once used as the Parker Library. The resolution, which passed unanimously during a meeting March 17, enables PAR to buy the building and the acre of land on which it sits for $865,000, plus closing costs. But a handful of Parker residents see a potential conflict of interest because town council doubles as the Parker Authority for Reinvestment’s board of directors, and the majority of council members work in downtown Parker. “If you look at these people, where they’re located and where they’re buying property, it doesn’t pass the smell test,” said John Sutherland, who lives in Canterberry Crossing. “It appears that the town is getting into the land speculation and development business.” Sutherland pointed out that Mayor Mike Waid’s office is directly across the street Town continues on Page 9

Dance party targets 55-and-over crowd Former party planner wants to ‘spice things up’ By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Being single in Parker is no easy task. It can be even more difficult for the 55-and-up demographic. Many of the events that allow singles to mingle and get to know one another tend to be in Denver. That’s why Parker resident Marty Pickert is taking it upon herself to “spice things up.” She has scheduled two dance parties in April at Takoda Tavern, a popular watering

hole on the southeast corner of South Parker Road and Hess Road. “I decided that it’s really boring (in Parker) for dance people,” she said. “We need to do something to have some fun.” Pickert, who ran an eventplanning busiPickert ness called “Parties by Marty” up until three years ago, said there are no places for older people to dance, so she has built a music playlist that features everything from rock `n’ roll and country to disco and

slow ballads. Pickert and her group of girlfriends go to the Tailgate Tavern in downtown Parker to line dance to country bands on Thursday nights. But there is often one thing missing: a few good men. “There are tons of neat women who are widowed and divorced — tons,” she said. “We’re trying to find the guys.” Pickert, who turns 71 this month, is employing a clever tactic to spark conversations, particularly because “people are shy,” regardless of their age and level of experience. Each lady who attends will be given a tag bearing the name of a classic song; every gentleman will get a tag with the name of

a musical artist. The idea is to match the song name with the band that recorded it to bring people together. “They might think it’s corny, but it gets people in the spirit,” she said. It’s not the first time Pickert has tried to improve things for residents 55 and older. She is actively working on a plan to establish senior cohousing in Parker. The “Singles 55+ Networking and Dance” parties are from 4-8 p.m. April 13 and April 27 at Takoda Tavern, 12311 Pine Bluffs Way. Admission is free and there is no requirement to RSVP. Call 303-649-9125 for more information.

Douglas County Undersheriff Tony Spurlock doubled the number of votes garnered by both of his opponents at the Republican General Assembly and will now run uncontested for the office of sheriff on the party’s primary ballot come June. After that, Spurlock will face off against Libertarian Brock McCoy in November for the right to take over for term-limited Sheriff David Weaver. No Democrat has announced a candidacy for sheriff at this time. Receiving 233 votes from delegates, the undersheriff picked up 50.4 Spurlock percent of the vote at the March 22 assembly, while Coroner Lora Thomas earned 24.8 percent and Castle Rock Police Cmdr. John Anderson wound up with 24.6 percent. For candidates to make it on to the Republican primary ballot they must receive 30 percent of the vote at the general assembly. If they do not reach that amount, but finish with more than 10 percent, they had nine days to gather signatures equating to 20 percent of the total number of votes in the Republican primary during the last sheriff’s election — which in this case meant 5,040 valid signatures by registered Republican voters in Douglas County. Neither Thomas nor Anderson chose to go through with the petition process. “I think the message from the delegates is that the citizens of Douglas County are appreciative of the efforts of the sheriff’s Sheriff continues on Page 13

Douglas job growth ranks second nationally Federal report takes look at 334 populous counties By Hannah Garcia

hgarcia@ coloradocommunitymedia.com The number of jobs in Douglas County grew by 5.9 percent in the fiscal year ending in September 2013, second only to Fort Bend County in Texas, according to a study of populous counties reported by the U.S. Department of Labor. The county ranked No. 2 out of 334 large counties with 75,000 or more jobs across the nation. Fort Bend’s job numbers grew by 6 percent between September 2012 and September 2013, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics report. The national average increase came in at 1.7 percent, the bureau reported on March 19. Douglas County’s increase resulted in the county having 104,100 jobs in September 2013, the BLS reported. “Douglas County invests in and fosters the foundations that allow businesses to succeed: an exceptional transportation infrastructure, public safety and a businessfriendly regulatory environment,” Douglas County Commissioner Jill Repella said in a news release. At a March 24 land use meeting, Repella said the county’s incentives are “paying off” and she expects the statistics to climb next year. “There is a lot of stuff in the pipeline that’s not included (in the report),” Repella said. “Who knows? Maybe next year, we’ll be No. 1.” Seven other Colorado counties made the top 100 in the job growth rate: Weld County came in seventh with a 5 percent growth rate; Adams County ranked 16th with 4.3 percent; Arapahoe was 25th with 3.7 percent; Denver notched 28th place

with 3.6 percent; Boulder was 54th with 3.1 percent; Larimer ranked 85th with 2.5 percent; and El Paso was 97th with 2.3 percent. Jefferson County was i n 120th place with a growth rate of 2 percent. Job numbers declined in 44 of the counties studied over the one-year period, according to the BLS report. Average weekly wages increased by 1.9 percent nationwide to $922. Douglas County was among those with a decline in average wages, in a field where the worst performance was in Pinellas County, Fla., where wages fell 4.3 percent. T h e average weekly wage in Douglas county declined by 2.5 percent over the one-year period, dropping to $889, below the nationwide average of $922. The decrease in Douglas County’s average wage was “due to changes in the Management of Companies and Enterprises industry. The wages in this industry fluctuate wildly each quarter,” Nancy Gedeon, an

economic and demographic analyst for the county, wrote in an email. Wages in that industry increased 362 percent from 2011 to 2012, which caused a 48 percent increase in the average wages of all industries in the county, she said. “My guess is that these business executives receive annual bonuses,” Gedeon said in an email when asked why the wages for that industry fluctuate so wildly. “Also, the average wage for this industry is at least (four) times higher than the average for all industries combined.” “When the Ma n a g e m e n t of Companies and Enterprises industry is removed from the LOG ON & total, wagVOTE TODAY! es in Douglas County OR COMPLETE THE increased BALLOT ON PAGE 28 about 2 percent from the third quarter 2012 to the third quarter 2013,” Gedeon wrote. According to a recent report from the Colorado Department of labor, accounting for data through the end of February, Douglas County’s unemployment average checks in at 5.3 percent, lower than the state average of 6.1 percent and national average of 6.7 percent.

Denver’s Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing program invites the public to join American veterans and fly fishing enthusiasts at the organization’s annual fundraiser and Fly Fishing Film Tour at The Wildlife Experience from 6-9 p.m. April 5. A $20 admission fee benefits Project Healing Waters, a nonprofit organization that teams up with the fly fishing community to help rehabilitate disabled active military service personnel and veterans struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder and other physical and emotional challenges. Actor, comedian and fly fisherman Scott Thompson joins the event as host. He wrote and directed the film “Breaking Through,” a short film about a Vietnam veteran who finds peace through fly fishing. At the event, participants have an opportunity to win fishing gear and equipment, guide trips to some of the country’s more spectacular fishing venues, and to purchase even more trips and gear through a silent auction. The Fly Fishing Film, “F3T,” takes viewers to Alaska to witness breathtaking scenery surrounding rarely fished waters. The film begins promptly at 7 p.m. on the Extreme Screen at The Wildlife Experience, 10035 S. Peoria St. Tickets can be purchased online at www.projecthealingwatersdenver.org or at Anglers All, Charlie’s Flybox, Colorado Skies/Minturn Anglers, Discount Anglers

Join the Parker Area Historical Society for its April program, “Angel Of the Warsaw Ghetto,” at 6:45 p.m. April 8 at Ruth Memorial Chapel, 19650 E. Mainstreet. Teacher/actor Judy Winnick will give an inspiring portrayal of Sendler, who risked her life to save thousands of children’s lives. All ages and non-members are welcome. The event is free.

Horse park series earns honor The series, named by exhibitors as a United States Hunter Jumper Association Member’s Choice award-winning competition, has been chosen as a distinguished World Champion Hunter Rider host event during the third and fourth weeks of the Colorado Horse Park’s six-week premiere AA-rated Summer in the Rockies show circuit. The venue has increased the Summer in the Rockies cash and prizes to over $1 million for 2014. Only a handful of horse shows are chosen each year by USHJA for the distinction of being named a WCHR event host. Events are selected on an annual basis based on the evaluation of a submitted application, votes from WCHR members and selection criteria including exhibitor hospitality, event scheduling, awards presentations and the quality of the footing, courses, stabling, staff and more. During Summer in the Rockies, the Colorado Horse Park will offer a $5,000 National Hunter Derby and the $15,000 International Hunter Derby during week three and a $10,000 National Hunter Derby and the $40,000 International Hunter Derby during week five.

Coming Fall 2014 To Parker “Every student, regardless of background or skill level, will achieve mastery and will demonstrate that they can succeed in high school, in college, and in their chosen career.” No exceptions. No excuses.

Legislators hope bill soars Special to Colorado Community Media As wildfire season approaches, several Colorado state lawmakers are pushing the state to secure its own aerial firefighting fleet. Republican State Sen. Steve King, Senate President Morgan Carroll and Senate Minority leader Bill Cadman are behind SB 14-164, a bipartisan effort that would give Colorado its own firefighting fleet. King and others hosted an open house on March 26 at Centennial Airport that fea-

tured a live water drop demonstration of the Martin Marietta C-130 Hercules Next Generation Airtanker, built by Coulson Aviation USA. Last year, SB 13-245 created the Colorado Firefighting Air Corps, but the state currently has no such aircraft. Should the new bill pass, it would permit the state, for the 2014 fire season, to purchase, lease, or contract for the use of up to three firefighting helicopters. For the 2015 fire season and beyond, the state could use up to four large aircraft from the federal government or other sources.

County approves business fee waivers Two operations get breaks from commissioners By Hannah Garcia

hgarcia@ coloradocommunitymedia.com The Douglas County commissioners unanimously approved two fee waiver requests at their March 25 land use meeting. Fee waivers are one of the incentives offered by the county for businesses looking to move to the county or expand within its borders. The commissioners waived $39.854.29 in fees for Colorado Studios, a company specializing in manufacture and operation of mobile TV production units. The company is responsible for 4,000 live sporting events, including the Colorado Rockies and the Colorado Avalanche. The fee waivers apply to a planned move to the HighField Business Park in the Meridian area, where the company will build a 39,877-square-foot assembly and production facility. The company hopes to move in January, general manager Phillip Garvin said. The company is currently located in Denver and will employ 45 fulltime workers at the new site with an average salary of $72,762, according to Garvin. Commissioner Jill Repella said the company would add to Douglas County’s “diverse economy.”

“This is a very unique thing that you do,” she said. The company also applied for a complete waiver of personal property tax and construction fee waivers. The commission also approved $6,511.31 in building permit fee waivers for Vantiv Inc., a financial services business headquartered near Cincinnati. Vantiv employs about 2,700 nationally and 30 in Douglas County, according to planning documents. The company is considering an expansion by leasing a 32,000-square-foot building at 367 Inverness Drive, increasing its workforce with 120 full-time IT and financial support jobs with an average annual salary of $100,000. The company also plans to enter a three-year, $50 million consulting contract that will add 75 contractor jobs. “The project investment is estimated at $6 (million) at this time with an initial $1.8 million capital investment in personal property to facilitate this proposed expansion,” Victoria Horton, director of the SC&H Group, which is assisting in the transition, wrote in a letter to the county. Vantiv also is requesting other local incentives, including a $500,000 cash grant, personal property tax abatement, discounted utility rates, 100 percent relief from local sales taxes and a waiver of all associated permitting fees. Those issues have not been decided yet.

Board member drafting policy in wake of vote Questions, concerns revolve around school board vacancy process By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Concern about the process used to appoint the newest Douglas County School Board member has prompted board member Judi Reynolds to draft guidelines for future appointments. Reynolds was one of two board members who voted against Rich Robbins, who was picked to fill an empty board seat. Reynolds said her concern is with the process — not the person — and extends beyond the swift, silent March 25 vote for Robbins’ appointment. She hopes to introduce her proposed policy during the next general board meeting on April 15. “The whole process in my mind wasn’t as laid out as I thought it should be,” she said. “I’m working on what I hope will end up being board policy to standardize the entire process, not just that final part of the process, to make it more transparent.” Robbins, a UPS Freight supervisor who supports the board’s education reform pol-

icies, was among six finalists interviewed during a special March 25 meeting. He was the only candidate nominated and was chosen on a 4-2 vote, with Reynolds and Meghann Silverthorn in opposition. Board president Kevin Larsen did not open the motion to discussion, and the other board members offered no comment. Some of other board members, finalists and audience members were surprised, believing the nomination would be discussed and that other candidates might also be proposed before a final vote was taken. “It was abrupt,” Silverthorn said. “I thought we should have had more conversation around things like qualifications, just a discussion of any kind. I don’t know what other people’s opinions were on any of the nominees because we didn’t talk about it. I wasn’t ready to make a determination.” Silverthorn said the two-part interview process leading up to Robbins’ appointment was “great.” “I wish we would have followed that through to a more logical conclusion,” she said. When board member Carrie Mendoza was appointed in March 2013, then-president John Carson asked for discussion about her nomination three times. Five of the sitting board members commented before the unanimous vote for Mendoza was

Board vote bonds traditional opponents Concerns about changes to public comment cross lines By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia. com The Douglas County School Board’s recent decision to restrict public comment has had an unexpected impact, at least momentarily uniting many who traditionally have stood on opposite sides of the board’s decisions. Many Douglas County residents who disagree on the board-initiated voucher program, teacher evaluations, budgetary and other issues have come together to agree that the March 25 policy change goes too far. A member of DCSD’s District Accountability Committee and a district captain with the Douglas County Republicans resigned his DAC post after the 6-1 vote to limit general public comment to five minutes per meeting. Former DAC member David DiCarlo did not return calls to Colorado Community Media requesting comment, but said during a March 18 discussion about the proposed policy, “I don’t always like what my neighbors have to say … but I would die for their right to say it.” Board member Meghann Silverthorn was the lone director to vote against the public comment policy change. Though the board-approved motion allows board president Kevin Larsen discretion to expand the time for public comment, another Douglas County Republicans’ district captain decried the change as “an unreasonable restriction on public

participation.” “That the board president has not been able to preside efficiently over public meetings is insufficient justification to establish arbitrary and oppressive restrictions,” reads a post from Dave Gill on both the Douglas County Republicans’ and Doug Co Champions for Kids Facebook pages. “As inconvenient as the more autocratic elected officials among us may find it, we still live in a Republic.” Promoted as a way to expedite the board’s business, the change focuses the bulk of public comment on items listed on the agenda. Instead of the 30-minute period now reserved for public comment, much of which has been sharply critical of the board — public comment now will be allowed only at the meeting’s end during a five-minute, one-minute-per-speaker period. The Douglas County Republicans actively campaigned for and supported the reform-minded board members in the last three elections, but Gill said he’s far from alone in his position. “I think you could safely say many of the Republicans who support and have supported the board are not at all pleased with this decision and certainly will be urging them to correct it,” Gill said. “I think the board has to learn to be more open and to appear more open.” Larsen did not return calls from Colorado Community Media requesting comment. Gill is among many who hope the discovery of common ground in the longdivided DCSD school board community could spark some unity. “Maybe that is something good that will come out of this,” he said.

taken. Mendoza also was the second candidate considered; a nomination for Reynolds did not receive enough “aye” votes to move forward. Board member Jim Geddes agreed the recent vote was quick, but said he saw no need for discussion. “I voted for the guy I thought would be most in line with my philosophy on things,” he said. “If somebody was not in favor it, it would have been their responsibility to begin the discussion. “Some folks have suggested there might be some collusion going on. That’s just not the case. It’s unfortunate it made it look like we were maybe treating it lightly. But I think all of us were very serious about evaluating each candidate and making our choice very carefully.” Robbins’ appointment was particularly sensitive for some, given the close nature of the 2013 school board race. Several community members had lobbied the board to select someone with different viewpoints. Finalist David Ray, a former Douglas County School District principal, said he could have filled that role. “I think that’s what’s desperately needed,” he said. “I’ve never seen our district, community or even our staff in such a depressed state in terms of what’s happening. I really was yearning for a signal they wanted to move beyond that divisiveness

and really add a different perspective. I felt like this was an opportunity they really missed.” Finalist Dilpreet Jammu, a member of DCSD’s Long Range Planning Committee, said the appointment process was not well-defined, and the end result unsurprising. “I wasn’t surprised, given how things have evolved in terms of politics and our board,” he said. “I believe they picked the candidate who’s best for what their needs are, whatever those are. I certainly hope the gentleman makes good, solid decisions.” Retired teacher Gary Colley, another finalist, said the quick action was “unfortunate.” “There was no explanation why he was the best candidate,” he said. “Unfortunately, it creates the wrong impression. It’s no big loss if I didn’t get selected, but surely you wouldn’t bring on a pro-board supporter when you’re trying to get the confidence of the community back.” Robbins said he had no say-so in the process. “Whether it’s the right process or the wrong process, or whether the process needs to be tweaked or not, that’ll be something we need to hear from the public, and probably sit down and look at as a board,” he said.

opinions / yours and ours

Blaming is obstacle on road to accountability “It wasn’t me!” “It’s not my fault!” “I can’t believe they did that!” To me, personal accountability is right up there with character, integrity, and honesty on the value scale. When we make mistakes, and we will, it is our responsibility to own them, fix the issue if possible, move on and learn from each one. As for me, I am doing a lot of learning these days … if you know what I mean. What we have to avoid is the “Blame Game” when it comes to blaming ourselves or others. Whether we try and hide from our errors out of shame, or we have developed a coping mechanism over time that allows us to point the finger of blame at others, it’s time to step up and take ownership of everything we do. And by the way, some of you may have heard or seen this before, but when we point the finger of blame at someone else, there are still three

fingers pointing back in our direction. Do others need to be held accountable? Absolutely. We all make mistakes and err from time to time. And in each case the level of conversation or appropriateness of a discussion around the event will be driven or dictated by the depth of the relationship between the people involved. When we have the strength and confidence to hold ourselves accountable for our own actions, it becomes so much easier to talk

letter to the editor Parents’ feedback matters most

I am writing in response to Dave Usecheck’s letter to the editor published March 27, titled “Survey needs to reach parents, non-parents.” There is a reason that businesses require a user code from a sales receipt in order to complete a customer satisfaction survey. Someone who doesn’t have direct shopping experience at Walgreen’s (for example), cannot provide useful feedback to the store, no matter how many times they drive by. Likewise, parents have direct experience with and knowledge of their children’s schools and, if they are involved enough, district policies that the rest of the community does not, no matter how many children knock on their doors selling magazines. If our school district wants to see how paid advertising can affect the public’s perception of the district, they

got that in the last election. If they want to see how their policies and actions are truly affecting students, they must ask the parents, and the parents alone. That said, Mr. Usecheck should be glad to hear that parents who have found the district “reforms” harmful to their children, HAVE recently found some common ground with BoE supporters. After the School Board voted 6-1 to drastically reduce public comments at board meetings, some of their most outspoken supporters are agreeing that this silencing of the public is wrong. I hope that this small piece of common ground can help end the heated rhetoric and name-calling, and provide a foundation upon which to discuss differences of opinion respectfully.

You build them up, they let you down Who and what can you count on? Who and what can you rely upon, each and every day? (Let’s leave God out of this.) It’s a good question. Even the best of friends flake out now and then. The best appliances go on the blink. Technology is always vulnerable. Your car can’t be trusted 100 percent of the time. Your cookies are broken. There are bones in your burrito. Meteorologists? They’re good, but they’re not perfect. I have never complained. Most of the time they are right on it. I always keep in mind that they are not predicting the weather on my street. I can’t count on my favorite actor to always, always be brilliant. The same goes for my favorite musicians. When I was a teenager, if a group had two hits, they would record an album. There would be a hit on each side, and the rest of the songs would be fillers. Most of the time the fillers were duds. Sometimes my favorite group — like Peter, Paul, and Mary — would record a song from the drecky settlings of a songwriter who missed the boat, missed the bus, missed the velocipede. Please don’t make me listen to “I Dig Rock and Roll Music.” My theory is that they thought their day had come and gone, that folk music’s day had come and gone, and that they wanted to look like they were still valid. Instead of singing a rock and roll song, they elected to be rock and roll sycophants. That’s unforgivable. On top of that, they sing the word “dig.” The song came out in 1968. “Dig” had come and gone years before. It made me sad. Unfortunately the damn thing was a hit. I freeze when I hear it,

and leap to change it. One time I changed the station, and the second worse song ever was on. Jefferson Airplane may have taken its name from a slang term for “a paper match splint that holds a marijuana joint that has been smoked too short to hold without burning the fingers.” One disc jockey said they were named after an airplane that was displayed in front of Jefferson High School. Either way, it was a good name. Was. Then someone decided to befriend “Star Wars” and renamed the group “Starship.” That still irritates me. Their first single was awful. Unfortunately it was a hit too. Elton John’s pal Bernie Taupin was involved. Please. Please do not play “We Built This City (on Rock and Roll”). It was all wrong, arrogant, a presumption, badly timed, a once great band’s resignation to the slide back down the hill. It reminded of Academy Awardwinning actor Ray Milland appearing in “The Man With Two Heads.” If it had been at the start of his career, OK. It wasn’t. The other head belonged to black football star Roosevelt Grier. What was it like on the set? Was it non-stop laughing? I’ll tell you what I can count on every Smith continues on Page 9

with others about their accountability and responsibility. It’s when we act one way and think that it would be OK to absolve ourselves from being held accountable, yet we feel like we can point out the erroneous ways of others, is where we get ourselves in trouble. Accountability sometimes carries a negative connotation, but it doesn’t always have to. People just don’t like being held accountable; it is a strong word for sure and does carry a heavy weight or even burden for some people. Accountability should be a positive word and used to motivate, inspire, and encourage ourselves and others. When used negatively, accountability can become a weapon. When it is used positively it can serve as a tool and launching pad for greatness. The next time you consider pointing your finger somewhere, point it in the

direction of where you want to go instead of pointing it at where you have been or at someone else. Now when you do this, point your finger towards your destination, you will still have three fingers pointing back at yourself. This will remind you that you are the one responsible and accountable for reaching and exceeding your goals. So are you playing the “Blame Game” or are you using accountability as a tool to help drive you toward the achievement of your goals and dreams? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we leverage accountability as a tool and not a weapon, it really will be a better than good week.

Today’s snow is tomorrow’s water Nothing beats a week of gray skies and stuffy suits in Washington like a sunny day in Colorado’s high country. A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to strap on some snowshoes for a short hike on Berthoud Pass with local water managers and staff from the Natural Resources Conservation Service. They were taking a manual reading of the state’s snowpack and checking the automatic SNOTEL measurement device. Undersecretary Robert Bonnie, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s top environmental and natural resource official, and the man who oversees NRCS, also came along. These snowpack measurement systems, some that date back to the 1900s, are a critical part of the Snow Survey and Water Supply Forecasting program that Colorado water officials rely on to anticipate river flows in the spring when the snow melts and calculate how much water will run off into rivers and reservoirs. Our state’s farmers and ranchers depend on these forecasts to decide how much and what type of crops to plant, while metropolitan leaders use the data to decide how best to meet their needs in the coming years and to prepare for potential flooding. Beyond Colorado, these measurements are important for states downstream that depend on our watersheds. Colorado contains nine major watersheds, each with its own snowfall patterns and obligations to other states. While some of these water sources may be at 100 percent, in other regions the levels may be less

than half of the normal supply. Many of the state’s water rights agreements are predicated on the level of snowpack making the accuracy of these measurements particularly important. Recently, however, funding for the Snow Survey and Water Supply Forecasting Program was threatened by budget cuts and sequestration. Colorado communities from across the state shared their strong concerns that cutting funding to this program would damage the accuracy of the measurements and reduce the effectiveness of this vital planning tool. In response to these concerns, we joined forces with Colorado’s water community, Sen. Mark Udall, and Congressman Scott Tipton to urge the NRCS to reconsider the cuts. After working with local communities, water managers, and the NRCS, we secured funding for the program for this winter. In addition, we secured funding in congress for the next fiscal year.

Town Continued from Page 1

from the site and Councilmember Joshua Rivero owns a coffee shop two blocks away. Because town council appointed itself as the urban renewal board, it’s like the “fox watching the henhouse,” he said. Urban renewal districts use tax-increment financing to address dilapidation and deterioration and make improvements to business facades and infrastructure. The value of property within the district is documented. That base value is then compared to future property assessments, and the urban renewal district collects a portion of property tax revenues generated by the incremental increases in valuation. The mission of PAR is to “encourage investment and reinvestment within targeted areas of the community in an effort to enhance and preserve the town’s vitality.” The town’s news release, issued after PAR’s approval of the deal, characterized the Parker Water property as a “prime” site. “A primary purpose in the creation of the Parker Central Area Urban renewal district was to facilitate redevelopment of underutilized sites,” it said. “PAR can facilitate private sector redevelopment of the property consistent with community vision and current East Mainstreet development trends.”

Purchase within the guidelines

Waid, who serves as chairman of the PAR board, said the acquisition does not violate any laws or deviate from the guidelines that govern authority actions. He dismissed assertions that members of council stand to gain financially or otherwise from the deal. Parker resident Dave Usechek, who served in public office for six years prior to moving to town, said he opposes having town council serve in two capacities and said there is “enough talent in Parker” to avoid overlapping interests. “I feel the council has tunnel vision on their goals and having a separate board may provide newer ideas to sustain the downtown concept,” Usechek said. Usechek is not against the purchase of the PWSD building and land, but said PAR should have an interested buyer before spending taxpayer money. Other residents are applauding the move as a step in the right direction. “I am for it,” said Todd Hendreks, an active member of the community. “If they can help bridge the gaps to (the) PACE (Center)… all the better. We need more hang-out spots in Parker.” While PAR markets the property for redevelopment, the building will be leased on an interim basis to provide offices for the town’s economic development department and associated functions to “create a one-stop business assistance office,” the town’s news release says.

Waid said the purchase is viewed as an “opportunity to potentially add more value to the downtown district by helping to cultivate development.” When asked why government intervention in real estate is preferred to the whims of the free market, Waid said there is concern that the land could be developed in a manner inconsistent with the vision for downtown. Sutherland said town council already has final say on what is built because it determines zoning, but Councilmember Josh Martin said development of the property is a “use by right,” meaning if a submitted project is within the zoning guidelines, elected officials cannot deny the application. Buying the land — much like the town did with Pine Curve, 24 acres of vacant land across from town hall — gives leaders more decision-making power. “We don’t view it as picking winners and losers. We view it as looking out for the best interest of the town as a whole,” Waid said. The site, which Martin said is “underutilized,” is ideal for vertical mixed-use development, similar to the Parker Station building across the street.

No announcement prior to approval Aside from the legal requirement to post the PAR meeting agenda on the Town of Parker website and outside the front entrance of town hall, there was no announcement about the purchase prior to approval. Waid said the town did not give more notice because “this wasn’t viewed by anyone as something that would potentially be controversial.” But any large financial transaction should be open to public scrutiny, said Sutherland, who opposed Parker’s decision last year to add a $2 million expenditure to the 2013 budget to buy land across from town hall. It was later announced that a new Parker Library would be built on the land. “If they’re going to start buying up property, they need to have a plan and tell everybody they’re going to do it,” he said. “It needs to be well-publicized.” While he appreciates the mayor’s enthusiasm in building up the downtown district, Parker resident Steve Gruenler said “spending tax dollars on purchasing or building non-core essential projects is a waste of resources.” In the past, South Metro Fire Rescue Authority Chief Dan Qualman has vehemently opposed the districts because he says taxpayer money is diverted away from emergency services and into the pockets of developers and business owners. He was not available for comment. The Parker Water deal is the first purchase of property by PAR, which previously spent funds on upgrades to businesses and infrastructure. Martin said the closing is scheduled for August. It is likely that the existing 6,700-square-foot building will be demolished after the economic development department moves out.

levels of flooding on the Front Range and significant population growth, the accuracy of these measurements is increasingly critical. Today’s snowpack is tomorrow’s water, and it is vital to our state’s future that we work together to ensure that our farmers, city leaders, and water managers have the tools they need to accurately forecast how much of this precious resource they’ll have each and every season. Democrat Michael Bennet has represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate since 2009.

Former school board president takes aim at CU-Regents seat Carson would take 6th District seat held by recently elected DougCo board member By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Former Douglas County School Board president John Carson is running for a spot on the University of Colorado-Boulder board of regents during the November 2014 election. Carson would essentially trade seats in 2015 with sitting District 6 CU-Regent Jim Geddes, recently elected to the Douglas County School board. Geddes does not intend to seek another term on the CU board. The Highlands Ranch Republican served on the school board for eight years, the last four as its president. He left his term-limited seat in November. Kevin Larsen has since been appointed president. Carson also is a graduate of CU, with degrees in law and political science. “The University of Colorado has always been a great love of mine,” he said, “and I want to work to continue to prove it.” Aurora Democrat Naquetta Ricks and Fort Lupton Republican Paul Schauer also have filed their intent to seek the District 6 seat with the Colorado Secretary of State. Carson cited rising tuition as his top concern. The CU-Regents voted March 21 to raise tuition 3.3 percent for the coming academic year. “The cost for an in-state student at CU is close to $30,000 a year, if you count room and board and tuition,” he said. “It’s gone

up 50 percent in the last six years. Middleclass kids are faced with having a tremendous debt burden if they go to college and don’t come from a wealthy household. “I think we need to take a look at the budget situation at the university, and make sure we get the university on a budget that reflects middle class families and their priorities.” Carson and Geddes, a surgeon and Sedalia resident, both want to ensure students at the traditionCarson ally liberal college are exposed to a variety of political viewpoints. “I want to make sure the university offers a good, balanced education, and a lot of intellectual diversity,” he said. Geddes, elected to the DCSD board in November 2013, said Carson has his support. “He is a strong conservative,” he said. “He shares my concerns about the cost of higher education, and that the quality of education at CU and similar universities would be greatly enhanced if we could have more intellectual diversity of our faculty.” While on the DSCD board, Carson participated in and oversaw the introduction of many of the district’s education-reform policies, including the voucher, or Choice Scholarship, program, teacher pay-for-performance and the end of the long-standing agreement with the teachers’ union. He also helped implement budget changes designed to build up the district’s financial reserves.

Gun lawsuit trial begins Judge’s ruling could impact recently-enacted laws] By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado’s new gun laws are “burdensome” and “a symbolic gesture that does not improve public safety,” a lawyer said on the first day of testimony of a trial that takes on the legislation passed in 2013. But a state’s attorney said that the laws do nothing to take away guns from lawabiding citizens and that the motivation behind the legislation is to curb mass shootings like the ones that occurred at Columbine High School and from inside an Aurora movie theater. “In response to these events, Colorado’s elected representatives made a policy decision to pass two pieces of legislation that appropriately balances the state’s public safety concerns with the respect of the Second Amendment rights of citizens,” said



  

Deputy Attorney General Matthew Grove. The lawyers’ arguments opened a twoweek trial over a lawsuit filed against the state and Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper that alleges that two recently enacted gun laws violate gun owners’ Second Amendment right to bear arms. At question are laws that expand background checks on gun sales in Colorado and limit the number of rounds that an ammunition magazine can hold to 15. The lawsuit is being brought by gun rights groups and is being heard in a Denver U.S. District Court by Judge Marcia Kreiger. A successful effort by the plaintiffs could put the new laws — which were signed by Hickenlooper last year — in jeopardy. Debate on the bills last year caused highly-charged partisan rancor at the Capitol between Democrats who backed the efforts and Republicans who uniformly voted against them. The bills also led to last year’s recall elections, where three Democratic lawmakers either lost or resigned their seats.

The new background checks law expands a previous statute that requires gun shops to conduct a criminal history prior to the sale of any firearm. The updated law expands that to all sales and transfers, regardless of where or how they occur. Plaintiffs’ attorney Richard Westfall argued that the new background checks law is unreasonable and unenforceable. He took particular issue with a part of the law that prohibits the transfer of guns among friends and family members, without having background checks conducted. “There is no justification for such a burden, particularly because this statute doesn’t even work,” Westfall said. Westfall also took on the magazine limit ban, which bans new sales and transfers of high-capacity ammunition magazines. The law does not apply to existing magazines that may already be in a person’s possession. Westfall argued that the law is unenforceable because “tens of millions of magazines over 15 rounds exist.” He also said the Legislature was “moved by high-profile

mass shootings” and that the laws are “a symbolic gesture that do not improve public safety.” “The question is whether the magazine ban will have any positive impact on public safety at any level,” he said. But Grove pushed back against those arguments. He contends that expanding background checks to all potential gun buyers “makes it more difficult for a prohibited person from acquiring firearms.” In defending the new magazine limit, Grove said that restricting the number of rounds that a killer can hold limits the damage that he or she can inflict. “Reloading creates a crucial window of opportunity for a victim to escape or to disarm a gunman,” Grove said. And Grove said that the laws are not aimed at limiting the possession of guns by a law-abiding citizen. “It does not take these items away from people who already own them. It does not restrict their lawful use. It does not limit the choices of firearms Coloradans can carry,” Grove said.

In addition to the sheriff’s race, there were three other contested races at this year’s Douglas County Republican General Assembly. In all three races — to replace state Rep. Carole Murray in House District 45, Jack Hilbert as District 1 commissioner, and Lora Thomas as coroner — all prospective candidates received the minimum 30 percent support at the March 22 assembly to make the June primary ballot. Running to replace Murray in the state House, political newcomer Patrick Neville, a retired Army captain who resides in Franktown, defeated Douglas County Clerk and Recorder Jack Arrowsmith by a margin of 64 percent to 36 percent at the assembly. Neville said his main takeaway from the experience was “that Douglas County is ready for bold, conservative leadership.” He said he’ll “bring a new energy and a passion for what (he) believes in,” putting an emphasis on fiscally conservative values. Arrowsmith, who has served the last seven years as clerk and recorder, touted his experience, a background that also includes

There were 473 delegates present at the general assembly, representing 100,905 registered Republicans in the county. For those who earn more than 10 percent support at the assembly but less than 30 percent, they were given nine days to collect 5,040 signatures (20 percent of the total number of votes at the 2010 Republican primary) if they chose to attempt to petition on to the primary ballot. four years as a legislative co-chair for the Colorado County Treasurers’ and Public Trustees Association, five years on the county’s planning commission working with land use and water rights, and three years on the Douglas County Open Space Advisory Committee. The Castle Rock resident said he “understands the value in protecting rural Douglas County.” While Arrowsmith said his level of experience is “something his opponent doesn’t have,” Neville called

the clerk and recorder “a career politician” and said he believes “everyone has a unique set of experience they can bring to the table.” “I understand what it means to raise my hand right hand and defend the constitution. I have seen people sacrifice everything to fight for that,” he said. “Unfortunately, I think the war for our freedom and liberty and our constitution is no longer overseas, but here at home.”

Commissioner race

To replace Hilbert as county commissioner — which represents the northeastern portion of the county — Sheriff David Weaver defeated businessman Stevan Strain, 61.3 percent to 38.6 percent. Weaver is term-limited in his current elected office. Strain, pleased to be on the primary ballot, was far from discouraged by the assembly vote, which heard the voices of 473 delegates, a small portion of the county’s 100,905 registered Republican voters. “It is about the party right now, to see if I am a qualified candidate,” Strain said. “I worked for 30 years to get the experience for the platform I’m running on … doing what is great for the citizens of Douglas County, holding down taxes, providing goods and services.” Strain, who recently sold the Warhorse Inn after 30 years of running the popular Parker restaurant, currently serves on the county’s planning commission and

open space advisory board. He has also served as president of the Parker Chamber of Commerce and Parker Economic Development Council, been involved with the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District and sat on the library board of directors. Weaver, on the other hand, pointed to being a longtime resident, who in his role as sheriff, has really gotten to “know the people and know the issues” as well as gain valuable experience in balancing a budget upward of $50 million. “At the end of the day, I care tremendously about this county and its future,” he said. “It all comes down to providing governance. My concerns are plentiful with balanced growth, water solutions, and I bring experience in leadership and management, and have a lot of knowledge and experience in serving people as we continue to grow at a rapid speed with the goal of continuing to have a thriving economy. “I appreciate the time and effort the delegates put forth in understanding all of the candidates and the issues that face us here as a community. I appreciate the overwhelming support and I look forward to serving them in the future.”

office, they are happy with my vision and mission for the future, and they are happy with what I have been doing as the undersheriff,” Spurlock said. “I am very happy, humbled and proud to be representing the Republican Party. It is a daunting and humbling task to run for office. I really appreciate everything the delegates and alternates did and I’m very pleased for the way it turned out.” Thomas and Anderson both expressed disappointment with the caucus process, and the fact that Colorado is among the minority of states that still adheres to it. Both also agreed the process is not necessarily a representative one as intended. “The caucus system is designed to work for the political machines and I am not a political machine,” said Anderson, lamenting that there was neither time nor money to pull together enough signatures before the deadline. “Twenty votes kept me off the ballot.

I’m just disappointed that 460 people can decide how hundreds of thousands of people would vote. I don’t think it’s right. “You go in believing in the system, and there are people that give you thousands of dollars to support you and knowing what I know now, I feel they were ripped off.” Thomas pointed to the fact that in 2010, she narrowly lost to Carter Lord in the race for coroner at the assembly, losing 50.8 percent to 49.2 percent with 417 delegates voting. She then went on to carry 94 percent of the precincts at the Republican primary, winning by a margin of 21.6 percent with more than 26,000 votes cast. She said those same delegates that gave “Tony Spurlock a free ride” are “out of step with most Republican voters” and what happened in 2010 demonstrates that. “Why did 50 percent of the Republican party bosses at the assembly vote for someone other than Tony Spurlock? They recognized the need for new leadership and fresh ideas,” she said. “The calls that I’ve received this week indicate that Douglas County Republican voters aren’t pleased with this

arrangement.” Anderson said he doesn’t know how to change it, but that he plans to educate more people about the process and that change needs to come at the state level, and he hopes it will. “There are a lot of people that are unhappy that they were denied the ability to vote,” he said. “Their voices don’t get to be heard.” Douglas County Republican chairman Craig Steiner said that he personally likes the process and that it is “open to any Republican who decides to show up and caucus,” and that they alone have the ability to “determine the outcome.” At the same time Steiner said, while candidates can choose to forego the caucus and assembly and begin petitioning Feb. 1 with the same March 31 deadline, he doesn’t feel like there is enough time after the assembly for candidates to petition on to the ballot if they don’t get the 30 percent, as all petitions must be filed 85 days in advance of the party’s primary election. “I hope that is something that is fixed in Colorado election law,” he said.

in the general election. In November, Snodgrass will face Democrat William Buntrock, who was defeated by Hamilton in 2010. Also of note, HD-39 incumbent Polly Lawrence, who lives in Roxborough, is the only Republican that has filed to run for that seat. As that district represents both Douglas and Teller County, the assembly to place her on the ballot will be held April 11 with delegates from both counties. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Lawrence stands to face Larkspur Democrat Carla Turner in the general election for a second consecutive time.

Gone West

Wonderbound troupe offers new creation at PACE Center By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Wonderbound is a dance company under the direction of Garrett Ammon and Dawn Fay — 11 dancers who are known for unusual movement and collaboration with other artists in the community, as new works are created. The most recent creation is “Gone West,” with 11 new poems by Michael J. Henry, director of the Lighthouse Writers Workshop, and 10 new songs written by Denver musician Ian Cooke, a cellist

IF YOU GO

“Gone West” will be performed April 4-6 at the Performing Arts Complex at Pinnacle Charter School, 1001 W. 84th Ave., Federal Heights. Performances: 7:30 p.m. April 4, 5; 2 p.m. April 6. Tickets: 303-292-4700. On April 12 at 7:30 p.m. and April 13 at 2 p.m., “Gone West” will be presented at the PACE Center, 20000 Pikes Peak Ave., Parker. Tickets: $22-$47, 303-8056800, wonderbound.com. with a popular band, which will accompany the dancers. Ammon writes of the “collection of beautifully flawed humans” brought to life in Henry’s poetry, while Cooke said, “My inspiration for `Gone West’ comes

from the relationships humans have with each other and the earth. I think periodic exposure to raw unfiltered nature gives us clarity and helps us sort out our issues … Nature can be harsh, but even when it causes traumatic events, it helps us evolve … telling this story together through dance, poetry and music is one of the best, most human ways to do so.” The performance is described as a Western journey that is a cross between Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” and a KOA Campground. Contemporary ballet draws on many sources, both new and traditional, to offer yet another way of telling stories to an audience. These are exceptional dancers.

Students’ excitement invigorates classroom Bye-bye boredom, says winner of Apple Award By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Highlands Ranch fifth-grade teacher Jenny Henry has turned the reins of education over to her students. “I’m no longer the expert,” said Henry, a Copper Mesa Elementary School teacher whose teaching style recently was recognized with a Douglas County School District Apple Award. “We know kids are capable of wonderful things. But you have no idea, when you hand that power over to them, just how they take off.” Henry, a 12-year DCSD teacher, said she embraced a shift in teaching that encourages more student collaboration and less teacher-focused instruction. “It made sense to me,” she said. “It just spoke to the core of who I am and what I believe about what we give to kids, our role as teachers, how important what we’re doing is. I plowed ahead with the idea of kids being more empowered in the classroom, myself taking on the role of a facilitator instead of just delivering the information to kids.” Henry describes the change as a “power shift” that excited both the students and her. “There’s not a single kid who’s bored anymore; they’re practically sprinting to get in the door,” she said. “Three of my kids were practically in tears because they said, `We don’t want

spring break.’ That tells me we’re doing something right.” Henry lit that spark at the beginning of the 2013-14 academic year by asking all her students to answer a single, profound question: Why does the world need me? The responses she got delighted and amazed her. One student said she would start her own business, and donate the proceeds to a hospital. Another wanted to create and sell a miniature solar-powered water purifier on a buy-one, get-one-free Henry basis, so the second purifier could be donated to a country in need. Another wanted to explore the merits of cross-breeding a salamander and a newt. “I never told him that wasn’t possible,” Henry said. “I just allowed him to explore that. “I’ve set up a room where it’s safe to explore and take those chances. It’s OK to fail.” Henry, the 37-year-old single mom of a toddler, said her love of teaching has reached a new level. “I think this has definitely brought back that passion and excitement for teaching,” she said. Reinvigorated as she is about teaching, Henry never thought it would lead to an award. “It’s an honor to be a teacher,” she said, “and to be in a district that supports innovative, world-class education. “I do believe it’s what’s best for kids. They guide everything I do every day.”

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Depending on a promise made becoming a promise kept could be more than a mite unwise at this time. It’s best to proceed on your own rather than wait for aid that might never arrive. LEO (Jul 23 to aug 22) a recently revitalized relationship might not be quite what the Big Cat expected. But give yourself more time to deal with the changes. a little flexibility can go a long way. Good luck. VIRGO (aug 23 to Sept 22) a major change could prompt more adjustments. Some of them might be difficult to deal with at first. But hang in there, and before you know it, you’ll be coasting to your next goal. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Your sense of justice prompts you to speak out against an unfair situation, even if you seem to be the only one who feels that way. But you soon learn that many others agree with you. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Creating a fuss is not usually your style. But that doesn’t mean you should tolerate an ill-mannered attitude. Speak up for yourself, and you’ll earn the respect of others. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) You might have a few loose ends to tie up before you can stamp your project as complete. But once that’s done, you might want to celebrate with someone special in your life. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Disappointment darkens the Goat’s mood. But close friends rally to pull you through with words of encouragement. Use their confidence in you to rebuild your own self-esteem. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) an upcoming decision might be more difficult with inaccurate information. Best to recheck the data you have at hand right now to be sure it won’t mislead you later. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) an offer you previously turned down might no longer be available. But if you do some checking around, you could find something else that would suit you just fine.

Ready to rock ‘n’ roll By Jim Benton

jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Part of the lore and culture of roller derby stems from the nicknames used by the skaters. Teammates seldom use given names when addressing each other and instead call each other by their derby names, which are earned after learning the sport and passing basic skills tests. Douglas County has its own women’s flat track roller derby team, the Castle Rock `n’ Rollers, which has bouts scheduled this year at the Douglas County Events Center and the Parker Fieldhouse. Some of the derby names of the Rock `n’ Rollers include Awesomesauce, Anesta TizHer, DebT Collector, Evie Rider, Fran-Tik, Boozy McBruisy, Stolie Roller, Skatie Golucky, Lickety Splat, Freudian Slipknot and Wicked Bliss. No two derby names in the world are the same but some might be similar. There is an international registry of names. Skating officials, non-skating officials, announcers and even derby volunteers participate in the roller derby name custom. Skaters often name themselves

Some derby names can be somewhat controversial. In the 1950s and 1960s the National Roller Derby League was popular and several networks would telecast bouts. However the sport became tarnished and regarded as an entertainment vehicle with theatrical elements. Roller derby, with hopes of becoming a professional or Olympic sport, has started to regain its popularity, and there is a move to legitimize the sport. “A lot of our roller derby names are pretty tame,” said Awesomesauce (Mandy Erwin). “There are some that have curse words or a play on words that are not appropriate for family TV. The people that really want this to become

So a lot of people are on the fence. It is highly debated in the derby community. I respect the right for people to use whatever names they want but they also have to respect the fact that not everybody is going to want to hear their names. Some of the best teams in the country didn’t wait for discussion, they came out at the nationals with their own names.” Evie Rider (Eve Crenshaw) and Fran-Tik (Francey Garbett) are the team captains for the Castle Rock `n’ Rollers. “Names are earned and girls work hard to earn those names,”

name.” Most of the team’s skaters live in Castle Rock, Parker, and Highlands Ranch with a few coming from Colorado Springs, Kiowa and Littleton. There is an assortment of day-time occupations for the skaters on the team that includes homemakers, a fitness instructor and others who work in counseling, school districts, police departments, debt collections and human resources. “We do have a good mix,” said Awesomesauce. “The media used to play the news angle of roller derby by night and CEO by day. But we feel like we’ve kind of got past that because we’re athletes. One thing we all have in common is the love for the sport.” The Castle Rock `n’ Rollers practice twice a week and have nine bouts on the schedule with a possible 10th, if a makeup date can be arranged. Skaters pay $40 monthly dues to help cover the cost for the practice facility plus

standard equipment like a medical kit and tape to set up the track. Rental cost of the venues for bouts is covered by ticket sales. “It takes a serious commitment from the women,” pointed out Awesomesauce. “It’s hard when this is your part-time hobby. It’s something that smaller teams like ours sometimes struggle with. We practice twice a week but some teams practice four or five times a week. “It’s a huge commitment when you have a day job that pays your bills. So far nobody is paid to do roller derby. All of us are volunteers, including the referees and officials. It is a year-round sport.” Roller derby is also a physical sport aside from the usual bumps and bruises received in practice and bouts. “It can be a rough sport,” said Awesomesauce. “It is a contact sport… The equipment has stepped up to be concussion proof. We take safety seriously. “We go by doctors’ orders. We have a training committee and a board of directors on our team and most teams do have set policies. We have a process for coming back. You have to have notes from your doctor that you have been cleared to skate.”
