ith the sun shining bright and children laughing, the community of Westminster and the Ridgeway family celebrated the dedication of the Jessica Ridgeway Memorial Park on Saturday, Oct. 5, the oneyear anniversary of Jessica’s disappearance. Hundreds of people wearing purple, Jessica’s favorite color, came together to honor the life of Jessica and her legacy, which will be remembered by a park created and built in the 10-year-old’s name and memory. On Oct. 5, 2012, Jessica was kidnapped and later killed by Austin Sigg, 18, who recently pleaded guilty to charges including first-degree murder and kidnapping. Her disappearance sparked a massive search with hundreds of community volunteers and 75 law enforcement agencies working around the clock to bring Jessica home. Days later her remains were found in an open space area
and in the crawl space of Sigg’s home. One member of law enforcement particularly invested in the case was Westminster Police Chief Lee Birk, who dedicated many hours for the past year to achieve justice for Jessica. During the dedication ceremony he held back tears describing how Jessica’s life has taught the community to love and care more, and although he had never met Jessica, himself and several other law enforcement would agree that they were profoundly touched by Jessica and came to feel as though she was their own daughter. “Jessica brought out what is good and right in people in our community. This park is part of Jessica’s legacy, but what it really signifies is the lessons Jessica taught us,” he said. “She taught us that family is important, we all should be better neighbors and community members and we all should care and love more because life is short and these things are what are most important.” Ridgeway continues on Page 7
A devastating fire destroyed the Lao Buddhist Temple of Colorado in Westminster in December 2011. And now, the Lao community is beginning the process of rebuilding their temple, a place that not only serves as a gathering building for their Theravada Buddhist religion practices, but also a place to sustain their culture. Since then, the Laotian community has been gathering in a large tent on the property at 10685 Dover St. and on Oct. 2, the Laotian community hosted a community meeting inviting neighbors to view the proposed plans for the redevelopment of the Lao Buddhist Temple. Westminster city planner Patty McCartney said the meeting is just the beginning stage of planning process to construct a new temple. She said the plan is still in review process and eventually will move forward to the planning commission and then city council. The plans include two buildings, a small 30-foot by 30-foot building to be used by the monks and a second larger building, 90-foot by 90-foot, which will be the temple. The property is about 4.5 acres total and according to Tom Pong, project director of the rebuilding team, the new temple will have a capacity of about 300-350 people. “This site and temple means so much to our entire Lao community and has been the center point for us to continue with our peaceful Theravada Buddhist religion practices, shelter for our entire community to gather and sustain our culture and a place for refuge for those in need of help,” Pong said. “It is open to all who are interested in learning more about our rich culture and peaceful religious meditation practice.” Pong said securing all of the financing for the redevelopment will be challenging, but seeing the white tent every day and knowing some elderly members of the Lao Buddhist community are waiting to see the redevelopment come to life are great sources of motivation. “We have terminally ill members who want to see this erected,” he said. “That is very motivating for our community. And we have faith and trust in each other that it will happen.” For more information or to donate to the Lao Buddhist Temple in Westminster, visit www.watlaodenver.net.

Learn to ride the tides of change How many of you remember the Broncos two Super Bowls? Do you remember how they won those two games? John Elway, plus a dominating running game. My, how times have changed. This year, as Peyton Manning is so adeptly highlighting, a good running game is almost an afterthought to a winning NFL team. Still, a few teams and coaches cling to their power games — old habits die hard. Which is another way of saying that paradigms are difficult things to change. And often, the recognition of a changed paradigm comes only on the other side of a painful experience (enter the New York Giants). About 48 percent of us received just such a lesson 11 months ago. The presidential campaign of Mitt Romney firmly believed that they were going to win the election, or, at the very least, that they were going to have a very interesting night. They thought that way because that’s what their polling told them. Unfortunately for them, the “science”
of polling involves a little bit of art: the pollster manipulates the raw numbers based on what he or she believes the overall electorate is going to look like on election day. They make conclusions by straining data through a filter of their own (educated) assumptions. The Romney pollster and the Obama pollster probably got similar raw numbers, but the assumptions of the Obama campaign, it turns out, were more in tune with the changed electorate than the assumptions of the Romney pollster. Mitt Romney got slapped upside the head by a shifting paradigm.
Actually, several paradigms, but that’s a topic for another day. The ability to function successfully in the world, it would seem, is deeply tied to one’s ability to foresee and manage shifting paradigms. For example, public schools are just now coming to grips with the idea that students have hundreds of sources of information at their fingertips, and the schools are not even in the top ten. So, when a school like Oberon Middle begins encouraging their students to bring and use their networking devices for schoolwork, it is a foresighted reflection of an understanding of the shifting paradigm, and an attempt to manage and use it. The pastor at my church has lately been pointing out that every bit of research points to a massive cultural shift in America that says people, in general, no longer look to churches and the clergy for understanding of truth. Whereas, fifty years ago, discussions of morals and right and wrong were founded in the teachings of religion, today, the sources of right and wrong are as broad as
Hollywood or as isolated as Twitter. In other words, the new paradigm is that institutions are no longer trusted sources of morality, and, as Pastor John says, for the Church to thrive, it’s going to need to start thinking of itself as missionaries in its own country. Paradigm shifts are strange things, but they seem to be piling up in this fastchanging world. So I would leave you with this thought: per capita, more millionaires made their fortunes during the Great Depression than at any other time in American history. Why? Because they understood how the world was changing in tumultuous times. So learn to ride the waves as they shift underneath you. If you catch the right one, it may take you on to far, green country and a swift sunrise!

Federal Center hit by shutdown Center goes into ‘weekend mode’
By Clarke Reader and Amy Woodward creader@ourcoloradonews. com, awoodward@ourcoloradonews.com
The Federal Center in Lakewood is one place in Colorado that is feeling the full force of the federal government shutdown. The campus, which is normally full of vehicles and has about 6,200 employees, has the feeling of a ghost town. Only minimal staff have been retained, and that is in keeping with the plan for the agency when there is a lack of funds. According to information posted on the U.S. General Services Administration’s website, the GSA provides a minimal level of staffing to support federal agency functions that must continue during the lapse period. “In the absence of appropriations, GSA owned and leased buildings will remain open. In many cases, because of the impact on the number of personnel

Photo by Clarke Reader managing these buildings, the services will be limited and will be similar to weekend operations. Maintenance and janitorial services, telephone service, lighting, and power will continue so that tenant agencies can continue to
provide vital services and perform essential missions.” The information also states that parking spaces associated with GSA facilities will remain open. The Federal Protective Service will also continue to provide
building security. GSA will have limited personnel that will be available to assist federal agencies in GSA owned and leased buildings to provide support for life safety, property protection, contracting, commu-
nications, and IT services. The USGS Water Science Center, which is located at the Federal Center, is closed, along with some websites. The USGS website still offers updated maps, deemed “necessary to protect citizens and land property” including: • Ecosystems • Disease Maps • National Wildlife Health Center • Natural Hazards • USGS coastal erosion hazards information • USGS earthquake information • USGS emergency operations portal • USGS information on geomagnetic activity • USGS landslide information • USGS volcano information • Water NREL is still open with staff working as usual but if the government shutdown continues, they will have to close. “We hope that it won’t go that long,” George Douglas, spokesperson for NREL said. “We can continue to operate for a month or more the way we are now,” he said.

Mill levy override earns support By Ashley Reimers
areimers@ourcoloradonews.com A proposed mill levy override for the Adams County School District 50 is now backed by two major entities: the city of Westminster and the Hyland Hills Park and Recreation District. Both the Westminster city council and the Hyland Hills board of directors passed resolutions supporting the mill levy override. If approved on Nov. 5, the mill levy override would raise $5.25 million, which equates to an increase of $6.63 per month and $86 per year on a home valued at $100,000. Bill Christopher, co-chair of the Invest in Success Committee supporting the mill levy override, said the money will basically take the place of the cash reserves used this year to balance the budget and does not provide anything major in the way of new programs or capital expenditures. “The mill levy override will basically maintain what the district is doing now and keep the momentum the district has achieved in the last couple of years,” he said. “If the $5.25 million isn’t there, then the school district will be faced with some challenging decisions as far as balancing the budget in subsequent years.” Christopher said some of the money will go heating and cooling improvements in existing schools, but no new schools will be built with the funding. “These improvements will happen over the years,” he said. “It won’t all get done in one year for sure.” Steve Saunders, communications director for the district, said this is the first mill levy override put before the voters since 2002, and if approved,
Tennyson Knolls Elementary in Adams County School District 50 received a new heating and cooling system over the summer. If the mill levy override passes this November, more schools in the district will see heating and cooling improvements. Photo by Ashley Reimers will make up for a dramatic reduction in funding from the state. The district currently receives about $6900 from the state per student, which dropped from $7,500 four years ago, he added. “To make up the difference and maintain educational programming over the past several years, the Board of Education dipped into its fund balance,” he said. With Election Day just weeks away, the Invest in Success Committee is focusing on getting information on the mill levy override to district residents. Deb Haviland, committee co-chair, said she is pleased with the fundraising done so far, and now the push is getting informative documents into the mail to residents. “We need to get the message out to the community,” she said. “This mill levy override is extremely important for the district because it will allow the momentum that the district has made
over the last couple years. We have to keep that momentum going.” Haviland said the committee will also be conducting phone trees in the future to spread the word to explain to district residents the importance of a local charge to benefit the students, rather than at the state level. “We can’t count on the state for everything,” she said. “Sometimes we have to come right in our community and our community needs to take care of our students who deserve our support.” The ballot language focuses on our key objectives: providing student with instruction and basic skills for success in college, and the work place, keeping highly qualified teachers and staff in the classroom, providing each child access to comprehensive education and providing funds necessary for the health and well-being of students.
Jeffco School Board candidates make pitch School board candidates come together for forum By Vic Vela
vvela@ourcoloradonews.com Jefferson County school board candidates made their pitches to voters at a Wheat Ridge forum last week. Five of the six candidates who are seeking positions on the Jeffco Board of Education gave short speeches touting their attributes, during an Oct. 2 event at city hall. The six hopefuls are vying to fill three open seats on the five-member board. The board seats are broken up into individual districts, but Jeffco voters will vote for all three races, regardless of where they live in the county. Gordon “Spud” Van de Water and Ken Witt will square off in a race to fill a District 5 seat, one that represents their home city of Littleton and parts of south Lakewood. Van De Water told audience members that his nickname of “Spud” came from “Spud” Chandler, a former New York Yankees pitcher who Van de Water said used to have trouble finding the strike zone. But this Spud — who worked in education policy and research areas for three decades — believes that he is making a strong pitch to voters who want to see more children in Jeffco succeed, such as those who may be struggling in areas of academic performance. “We need to work very hard to make student
achievement our number one goal and work to close the achievement gap in this county,” he said. Witt touted his data security business background, one where he “set policy for multi-billion dollar corporations” as a leadership strength that he hopes to bring to the school board. Like Van de Water, he talked about the district’s need to close student performance gaps and his desire to address parents’ frustrations Witt over school waiting lists. “I would like to make certain that we are able to deliver access to a high quality education to every Jeffco student,” Witt said. Also addressing Wheat Ridge voters on Oct. 2 were two Westminster mothers who are competing for a District 1 seat, one that represents their home city Van de Water and much of Arvada. Tonya Aultman-Bettridge talked about her 20-year career in research and evaluation work in the areas of juvenile justice and mental health. “If I’ve learned anything in 20 years of research, I have learned that a solid public education is absolutely the best investment that we can make as a community for our children,” she said. Aultman-Bettridge’s opponent, Julie Williams, is the self-proclaimed “conservative choice” in
the District 1 race. In her speech, she blasted “educrats” and vowed to bring “common sense and simple solutions” to the school board. “I can think of no higher calling on earth than being a mom,” she said. “I want to be the mom’s voice on our school board.” The District 2 match-up features John Newkirk of Conifer and Jeff LaMontagne of Lakewood. The district includes the candidates’ home cities, as well as Evergreen and parts of Golden. Newkirk, who has worked in the medical technology field, touted his 20 years of youth volunteer work and his own Jeffco schooling. He also talked about the challenges that the district faces. “We’ve got our challenges,” he said. “We have budget challenges; we have classroom challenges; we have curriculum challenges. But as we’ve learned, in America we do not run from our challenges, we run toward them.” LaMontagne did not attend the event. In his stead, Sue Windels, a LaMontagne supporter, gave a speech where she talked about LaMontagne’s role in co-founding the Second Wind Foundation, an organization that provides counseling services for children who are at-risk for suicide. “I know that Jeff has really positively impacted the lives of many students and probably has saved a lot of lives as well,” she said. The forum, which was sponsored by Wheat Ridge United Neighborhoods, did not include a question-and-answer segment for the school board candidates.

Ralston House expands services Abused children from Adams, Broomfield to have a new safe haven By Ashley Reimers
areimers@ourcoloradonews.com
The Ralston House, with locations in Arvada and Lakewood, is expanding its services to the 17th Judicial District. The nonprofit organization provides a friendly and safe environment for children and teenagers who have been sexually abused, physically abused or have witnessed a violent crime an opportunity to share their stories and begin the healing journey. Don Moseley, executive director, said for over a year, children in the 17th Judicial District, which serves Adams and Broomfield counties, were being brought to the Ralston house by police, social services, the sheriff’s department and the district attorney’s office for services. He said in May a memorandum of understanding was signed by all entities as well as the Ralston House to begin official service in the 17th Judicial District. Now, to provide the extended service, a site in Northglenn will eventually be opened. “The Ralston House is now the official advocacy center for the 17th Judicial District,” he said. “With such a large district, another site with a lot of capacity is needed.” Moseley said the Ralston House receives referrals from law enforcement, social services and the district attorney’s office and works with these agencies to provide specialized forensic interviews and medical examinations for children. and Instead of children who have been sexusolu-ally abused being transported to the police station for an interview, Moseley said they thanare taken to the Ralston House to give their om’sinterview.

“Sexual perpetrators tell kids it’s their fault, and the kids feel they are to blame and they feel like they will be arrested,” he said. “So taking these kids to the police station can often be the worst place to take them. Being able to come to Ralston House reminds them that they are not the ones in trouble.” District Attorney Dave Young said having a site in Northglenn will be a great benefit to the district and officers and deputies will no longer have to travel to Arvada to transport children in need of service. He said the Ralston House is a great organization providing a safe environment for children in traumatic situations. “Knowing the children are able to be interviewed in a comfortable environment
that feels more like a home than a police station would, means a lot,” he said. “Plus when it comes to handling these types of cases, it will be easier for us because we will already be working closely with the forensic interviewers who interviewed the child at the beginning.” Moseley has been with the Ralston House for seven years. When he was hired, it was his job to grow the organization, and not too long after that, numbers began to increase. When he started, Ralston House was serving just 250 kids a year, now for 2013, Moseley said he’s expecting the number to be at 950 kids for the year. Ralston House is also expanding their services by now providing free trainings to churches, schools, sports organizations and
other organizations involved with children on how to identify a perpetrator and how to put rules in place to keep perpetrators out of the organization. Moseley said the training helps people to catch certain patterns that perpetrators have as well as help teach people what to do if a perpetrator does make it into the organization. To set up an appointment for a training session, call 720-898-6741. “What people don’t understand is that perpetrators seek out professions involving children, they are looking to find children and gain their trust,” he said. The Ralston House operates solely on donations and grants and does not receive any federal funding. To donate, visit www. ralstonhouse.net.

At least 10 deputies from the Jeffco Sheriff’s office have filed a complaint in federal district court against Sheriff Ted Mink and the Board of County Commissioners. The county attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss the case in response. The deputies’ complaint was filed in December 2012. They claim that under the Fair Labor Standards Act,
they are entitled to unpaid wages from the county for overtime work. The Fair Labor Standards Act passed by Congress in 1938 set the standards and regulations of operations between employer and worker including minimum wage, overtime compensation and other additional provisions. State law dictates the sheriff is responsible for setting salaries and wages for employees subject to the approval of the commissioners according to state statute. According to the complaint, the sheriff allegedly published set salaries and wages in a posted docu-

ment titled “Salary Schedule.” Plaintiffs argue the salaries listed on the schedules posted for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012 are not the amount they received for those years. Attorneys for the plaintiffs argue that both the salary schedule, and the policy and procedures manual constituted a promise made by the county to the plaintiffs. In a brief interview with Sheriff Ted Mink he stated the “Salary Schedule” was not a document reflecting promised salary rates, but an internal document based on the results of a countywide salary survey conducted by a consulting
firm hired by the commissioners. The results were used as a basis for what their stepin-grade program should be, and was never publicly posted or published by Sheriff Mink. “It was only a recommendation that we put together internally,” Sheriff Mink said and those recommendations were never funded by the commissioners. Pat Gilbert, county attorney, argues in the latest motion that “any alleged promises to pay is unenforceable because the commissioners did not approve the salary schedule as required,” and plaintiffs have not provid-
ed sufficient facts to show their rates of pay were salary scheduled rates. “We don’t believe they stated a federal claim for an
overtime violation,” Gilbert said. Counsel for the plaintiff’s did not comment by press time.

opinions / yours and ours
A week to tout value of newspapers Where was it that you heard about the so-called demise of the newspaper? Probably, you read about it in your daily newspaper; because, as Mark Twain, a journalist himself, was able to write to a friend: “The report of my death was an exaggeration.” And a good newspaper will go on to explain the source of the rumor, and if false, will present the facts that debunk it. Well into the 21st century, American newspapers are as relevant as ever, because like other vital segments of their community, they are always at work and always looking to reinvent themselves. We’ve seen this in high-profile deals such as Jeff Bezos’ acquisition of The Washington Post; but we’ve also seen dramatic changes nationally at newspapers large and small, as their news, advertising, marketing and circulation staffs have embraced a variety of digital and social media platforms to reach new and existing readers, while continuing to present the news in the traditional print format. But the modes of communication are not the most important change: That is in the way that the newspaper has greatly expanded its role as watchdog for the community. Trust in our public institutions is on a steady decline, and sturdy journalism is going to be the only reliable way for average Americans to glean the truth from a
guest editorial stream of conflicting information disseminated by political partisans and vested interests. In the past year, newspapers were the leading source of information on these stories of vital importance in their communities and nationwide: • The Denver Post conveyed news via text, social media and video of James Holmes, who killed 12 moviegoers in Aurora, while the tragic events still were occurring. • The Tennessean in Nashville called attention to Tennessee’s Department of Children’s Services’ inability to account for the deaths or near-deaths over a threeyear period of approximately 200 children who were in custody or whose welfare was being monitored by the state. The reports led to the department head’s resignation and a restructure of the department. • An investigation by The Sun Sentinel of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., uncovered widespread cases of off-duty police officers’ reckless driving. In each case, the newspaper looked at
question of the week
Do you want to go to Mars?
A Dutch organization, Mars One, has announced plans to establish a human settlement on Mars by 2023 and has received thousands of applications, even though it might be a one-way trip. Colorado Community Media asked visitors to the Outlets at Castle Rock if they would be interested in going.
“Probably. It’s something different. I’m a futuristic thinker … (But if it were a one-way trip) “it would depend on if they have a beach or a lake and if I could convince my family to go.” — Chase McCall, Castle Rock
“No. I’m a picky eater. I don’t think I could eat astronaut food. And I like to be outdoors.” — Brittany Dunn, Centennial
“Yes. ... The Earth is getting overpopulated. It’s getting too polluted. I totally know my friends would go with me. They totally agree.” — Lauren M., Parker
“No. ... We’re outdoors people. I don’t know how you could be ‘outdoorsy’ there. I like all four seasons. And it’s a really big risk.” — Brian Bergeman, Aurora

its role as a voice for the entire community it serves. Despite all the obituaries being written about newspapers, we look at these examples and many more and find that newspapers are amazingly spry and alert
— and always at work. (Guest opinion written by Ted R. Rayburn, editorial page editor at The Tennessean, provided by the National Newspaper Association in conjunction with National Newspaper Week, Oct. 6-12).
Living in a world just gone crazy Remember some years ago when we watched on television, O.J. Simpson racing down the Los Angeles highway in a white Bronco with the police in hot pursuit. The other day we witnessed such craziness again on two fronts, New York and Washington D.C. It was surreal watching a group of motorcyclists surrounding a passenger car and beating up the driver on the streets in New York City. Then came the really crazy chase as Washington D.C. police attempted to stop a black car with a woman driver. We watched in horror as she’s driving over 80 mph on busy streets. Only after they got her stopped did they find there was a “baby on board.” The baby was quickly dispatched to a nearby hospital while her mother was being shot at and killed. Then the questioning began as to why they (the police) couldn’t have shot out the car tires and slowed the car. I’m sure if the police had known a baby was in the back seat they would not have shot and killed the mother. Once again we learn the mother had mental health problems. When searching her Stamford, Connecticut home, medication for bi-polar and depression was found. What a terrible ending to a chase that from this woman’s mission was to get to President Obama who she thought was communicating with her. The police found no guns in her car. They blatantly shot at her with their guns blazing. The whole crime scene was surreal. Meanwhile, “at the O.K. Corral” as the song goes, our pathetic group of lawmakers were playing little games, whispering and smirking as they made up their little reasons for “not negotiating”.

Collectively they are a bunch of spoiled brats and that’s the best we can say about them. If I hear one more legislator speak “for the American people” I think I’ll throw up. They aren’t speaking for us, they are speaking for their re-election bid. They really only want to say enough to get reelected and not make any big blunders.
Close to home
Then we learn about a big blunder right here in Westminster. It’s my understanding city counselor Bob Briggs (and candidate for Mayor) is forming incorporation papers to create a new Westminster Chamber of Commerce. Folks, we need that like a hole in the head.

In-between is really middle of nowhere Some of you may remember the Gerry Rafferty song, “Stuck in the Middle,” and then again, since it was written and first performed in 1972 by Stealers Wheel, maybe there are more of you who don’t have a clue about what I am referring to. That’s OK. The point is this: Are you stuck in the middle? Are you in the middle of a project, the middle of a decision, the middle of a quarrel, or just stuck in the middle of anything? You see, it’s the middle that gets us. It’s not the “yeses” or the “noes” that derail us, it is the “maybes” that bring us the greatest frustration. It’s when we get paralyzed by indecision or suffer paralysis by analysis as we overthink each and every single thing we do. You know what I mean, right? It’s that in-between stuff that really muddles the
middle. Those “tweener” situations where we do not know if we are in or out, or on which side, or whose side we will fall. The real questions are why and how we find ourselves in this position. Is it because we are over-accommodating and work so hard at pleasing everyone that we find ourselves in the middle so that we do not offend anyone? And you know
what happens when we are in a relationship, friendship, or partnership and both people strive to accommodate the other person, it’s like ending up in a reverse arm wrestling match. Instead of strenuously trying to “push” our opponent’s hand to the table, both sides try and let the other person win and end up in an extreme game of tug of war as we “pull” our own hands toward our side of the table. What are we afraid of? Are we fearful that we may make the wrong decision? Here’s the deal, we can make and will make a million wrong decisions in our life. But there is nothing we can ever do, within reason, that will torpedo our lives or our relationships or any business venture that we are pursuing that cannot be overcome as long as our decisions are in alignment with our values. And as Roy Disney said, “It’s not hard to
make decisions when you know what your values are.” It’s when we don’t put our stake in the ground and waffle about everything we need to do that places us in a perpetual state of limbo and unable to move forward. And we usually choose not to take a stand or make a decision because we are operating out of a mode of fear or scarcity rather than a mode of growth or abundance. What are you waiting for? What’s the big or even little decision that is holding you back? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we resolve to leave the “tweener” in us behind, it really will be a better than good week.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Support Briggs
My name is Christy (Briggs) Price, I’m the daughter of Bob Briggs, candidate for Westminster’s 30th Mayor. (I am also a longtime Westminster and surrounding area resident.) I feel my father is not only the most qualified candidate, but in addition he’s not just your usual politician, he has always simply ‘loved people!’ During his 30-plus years of experience, he has been both a volunteer and an elected official to over 60 boards and committees on the local, county and state levels. I’d have to say I’m the proudest of my father’s service as a charter member on the Open Space Board. His legacy of obtaining land for use as parks and trails, will continue on to our grandchildren and greatgrandchildren.
Many politicians have their own political agendas — I can honestly say that my father just wants the BEST for everyone! He will make an outstanding “goodwill ambassador” for the City of Westminster. Christy Price Westminster
Defeat Amendment 66
Amendment 66 (a billion dollar tax increase to “improve” education) costs a lot of money, yet it doesn’t address the systemic problems of public education. If Amendment 66 passes: • Public schools will still defy common sense and pay great teachers the same as average and awful ones. • Public schools will still have the cockamamie policy of paying teachers based on years of service and their college
degrees instead of paying for results. • Public schools will still have the loony policy of protecting teachers with tenure — regardless of how they perform. • Public school districts will have more money to waste on the salaries of union bosses, they’ll have more money to blow on paying teachers to do union work, and they’ll have more money to waste on lavish school board conferences held at luxurious places (like the Broadmoor and Brown Palace hotels). • Public schools will still use the crazy idea of assigning children to schools based on arbitrary political boundaries (Nearly everyone recognizes that it would be crazy if we were assigned a government-run grocery store based on arbitrary political boundaries. We would never tolerate it. Why do we tolerate such craziness for schools?)
• Poorly run lousy public schools will still not have to worry about going out of business or about the competition, and still nobody will have to worry about being fired for rotten results Amendment 66 keeps the money rolling in regardless of the results. If Amendment 66 fails to improve academic results, the tax will not expire in five, 10, or even 20 years. It’s a forever tax increase with no accountability for results. By voting no on Amendment 66, you will send a loud and clear message to the public school establishment and the legislature that you’re NOT willing to spend a dime more without reforms that address these public school systemic problems.

Photo by Ashley Reimers
Ridgeway Continued from Page 1
Westminster Mayor Nancy McNally spoke about the strength of the Ridgeway family and how through them, the community is able to mend. She said the Ridgeway family has been a rock for the community, but also reminded the family that the community can also be their supporting rock. “To Sarah, Rebecca and the rest of the Ridgeway family, as you have moments if you question if you are alone, I hope you look out right now out and take a snapshot that can come to you just by shutting your eyes and remember that this community stands behind you and made possible the Jessica Ridgeway Memorial Park,” McNally said. For months work has been done on the park, which was formerly known as Chelsea Park, at 10765 Moore St., by many volunteers and city staff and is now open to the public. Its design is a reflection of Jessica, including the color purple and a teetertotter resembling a giant green dragonfly, an insect she was studying for a project at school before she died. There is also a large
butterfly sculpture at the front of the park, which according to former classmate Layla Iverson it’s a perfect fit because Jessica was fascinated by butterflies. Although Jessica’s mother Sarah Ridgeway didn’t speak during the ceremony, Jessica’s grandmother, Christine Ridgeway did. She encouraged all of Jessica’s classmates in the crowd to run along, and play in the beautiful new park because “Jessica would not want you here mourning her.” She thanked the community for their support, even though many didn’t even know the Ridgeway family. “I see people who helped create a park full of Jessica’s smiles and love,” she said. “What I don’t see is a place that is a reminder of what happened to Jessica, but a place of fun. My heart is filled with joy because Jessica’s laughter will be echoing here forever, so thank you.” The official ceremony ended with the release of 10 balloons by the Ridgeway family in honor of Jessica’s 10 years of life, but the celebration of her was just beginning. As balloons floated up to the sky, youngsters ran to the playground with smiles on their faces and energy in their shoes, jumping, swinging and climbing, enjoying a park that will always be a reminder of a little girl who loved her family, the color purple, butterflies and animals.

1) Collaborative, experienced, strategic.
1) Informed, friendly, encouraging.
2) My entrepreneurial spirit, determination, attention for detail and friendly nature as a co-worker has made me successful. Being semi-retired affords me the flexible schedule to meet the needs in representing Westminster. I understand and follow the city’s strategic plan that’s made Westminster what it is today and sustainable for the future. The last eight years as your councilor under the exemplary leadership of Mayor Nancy McNally has trained me well.
2) From my decades in retail pharmacy and property management, I have used persuasion, backed up with knowledge and reminding people of consequences, to find ways to benefit all parties in nearly every situation
Candidate for Mayor
QUESTIONS 1) Please use three words to describe your leadership style. 2) Describe the skills that make you the best candidate for the job 3) Please list your top three priorities if elected. 4) What are your strategies in terms of bringing more commuter options to Westminster, including the FasTracks project? 5) What are your goals for Westminster in terms of economic development?
Terms: Mayors are elected to a four-year term. There are three candidates running for the position of mayor. City Council members are elected to a four-year term. There are eight candidates running for three positions on the council.
1) Collaborative, listener, doer. 2) I have an MBA in project management, and over 30 years of experience in the field. I have managed projects and programs with budgets in excess of $400 million. I served on the Special Permits and License Board, Westminster Planning Commission, and two previous terms on City Council, before leaving due to term limits. I returned to the City Council in 2011. I currently serve on the Board of Directors of the Westminster Legacy Foundation, am a member of the Westminster 710 Rotary Club. 3) Continue to work with RTD and others to bring commuter rail to the Northwest corridor. Develop the remaining land in the city as well as re-development of existing commercial centers. Retain current businesses and attract new business.
Candidate for Mayor
1) Effective, visionary, friendly. 2) Business and government experience with the vision for the future. 3) Commuter rail to the other two Westminster stations; The New Westminster Downtown Development; and 70th Avenue and Julian becomes the home of a new Westminster RTD Station with a long needed major city park on the Little Dry Creek. 4) A Northwest Commuter Rail solution exists outside the RTD boundaries and we have to get RTD to consider and use it. I have the ability to advocate for that solution. 5) Economic development can do two things for Westminster, bring jobs to Westminster citizens and can provide a market for homes for those employees. Both are important.
4) Commuter rail service is the only viable option for additional commuter services. Bus transportation is already in place and adequately services the current needs of the city. Highway projects must come with state and federal funds and will be done on a regional basis.
Candidate for Mayor
City Council Candidate
3) Be Westminster’s voice with our regional partners to protect our citizens’ investments. Be a mentor and lead our new council in working with our strategic plan and assure that our citizen’s input is reflected in the development of our new town center. 4) Our federal Tiger Grant provides new HOA/HOT lanes on U.S. 36. Our first commuter rail station opens January 2016. I’ll partner with RTD to offer solutions and help towards obtaining two more stations for Westminster to remain economically prosperous.
5) Change the current perceptions that Westminster is not a “business friendly” place to do business. Work with investors, developers, builders and businesses to better understand their needs; re-evaluate some current city processes/procedures and revise/ streamline where possible.
5) Attracting new retail that’s unique to the Denver Metro area, while preserving the mountain views, welcoming small business owners, a variety of restaurants, an office complex and a train station all at 88th and Sheridan will keep us economically prosperous.
3) Take Westminster off the treadmill of phony Economic Development, this includes getting the city out of the development game it is playing with our tax money, mitigate the harm we have caused to the schools and meaningfully acknowledge/reward our citizens as partners in Westminster’s success. 4) Unless mass transit has points of origin and points of destination on the transit lines, it will always fail. Current lines have filled parking lots and still only serve a tiny fraction of the public and make no impact on traffic problems. We need hardnosed officials that use this reality as the foundation for our plans. 5) What are your goals for Westminster in terms of economic development? Return financial integrity, common sense and ethics to economic development. We must stop cutting the throats of our neighboring cities. Westminster’s power to tax is being used to benefit connected developers and businesses. This is wrong. This must stop.

Bergamo Contact: Email bergamo4westminster@comcast.net 1) Fair, compassionate, adaptive. 2) What makes me the best candidate is I am not a politician, I do not have political skills but I have life skills and I can bring to the table a fresh new prospective. 3) Top 3 priorities; try to make Westminster more attractive to business, work on making sure that Westminster is a place where families want to live and keeping the open spaces and trails accessible to bike riding, running or just out for a walk. 4) There are several different types of commuter transportation and I would have to do a lot of research to see what is best for Westminster. As well as to find out what the benefits and the disadvantages are to bringing in something like FasTracks 5) One goal I have for economic development is to find ways to fill up all the empty shopping centers that are around Westminster.

City Council Candidate
1) Strategic, inclusive, proactive.
1) Ethical, humble and accountable. 2) My business experience has developed me into a critical thinker who works with others to produce the best results. In my 12 years in IT I have worn the hat of project manager in charge of many large projects. All of these projects required me to work with many different departments and people to complete projects. I know what it takes to bring people with different needs from a single product and work together to complete the project and meet everyone’s needs. 3) Mall redevelopment, FasTracks and South Westminster revitalization. 4) Work as a partner with RTD and surrounding communities to see value and need to continue to develop and deliver FasTracks and commuter options. 5) I plan to work on policies that encourage business to develop in Westminster. I would like to evaluate the 40 percent water tap fee increase that was passed in council. I want to know why they did not go with original recommended 21 percent increase. This kind of policy change shows business we want to be their partner and allow them to flourish in Westminster. Bringing business to Westminster by being a good partner to it, we bring jobs, prosperity and make a stronger Westminster.

2) My experience working with the city and county for the past two years on various boards and commissions gives me exposure to city practices and operations. My educational background in business and policy making coupled with my work experience in the construction industry gives me a uniquely comprehensive perspective to help lead our city. 3) Retail and commercial development in the area around Westminster Station on 71st and Irving. I envision this being a vibrant location to represent our people, art, history, and culture; Extend commuter rail through Westminster; Develop downtown Westminster Center. 4) Developing a desirable destination around Westminster Station to attract residents, consumers, and commuters from around the northwestern Front Range to eat, drink, work, and play will create the traffic patterns needed to extend commuter rail further northwest through the city. 5) Retail and commercial development along with labeling/branding the Historic Westminster district around Westminster Station builds a foundation to help revitalize the city, increase property values, create additional revenue for the city, create jobs, and improve the local economy. This foundation will create the economic conditions we need to reach our long term goals of completing Westminster Center, and extending commuter rail through the city.

1) Prepared, inclusive, passionate.
2) Spent six years on Planning Commission, provided strong understanding of the development process. Fifteen years on an economic development association board afforded the opportunity to learn economic development principles. Almost three decades of experience on various boards taught the dynamics of working with diverse points of view and personalities.

2) I’ve been active in the public policy arena, working at the state capitol during the Colorado General Assembly and previously serving as a Congressional Aide. From my time working in the public policy arena, to my legal background, I have the experience needed to step in on day one and address the tough challenges facing our city. 3) Keep our communities safe — I will fight to give those who protect us the resources they need to keep Westminster safe, fight for our fair share of commuter rail — we pay every single day for the FasTracks program, we need to ensure Westminster’s interests are protected and responsible economic development — the current development projects in Westminster, most notably the Westminster mall area, have the ability to shape our city for decades to come. 4) Promises were made about commuter rail, those promises need to be kept. We need strong, vocal advocates who will continue to fight for Westminster’s interests. 5) Westminster has already invested millions of dollars to prepare the former Westminster Mall site for redevelopment. We need to work towards the goal of creating a mixed-use, transitoriented development. We also must continue to strive towards responsible economic development.

1) Collaborative, thoughtful, forward-thinking.
3) City council will need to oversee redevelopment of the former mall into a vibrant hub of retail, office and commercial businesses — and an area residents want to call home. Another priority will be to maintain focus on commuter rail to assure its completion through the city. Since the demand for commercial, retail and residential development will exceed the land available for development, creative approaches to redevelopment will be required. 4) RTD and stakeholders are participating in the Northwest Area Mobility Study. My strategy would be to assure that Westminster’s interest are represented during the study and that final recommendation are implemented to provide improved commuter options for Westminster citizens. 5) My goal would be to retain the 3,000 businesses already in the city. Future economic development will focus on the city center. However, work toward filling empty retail and commercial space in some pockets of the city must continue.

This edition completes our 3-part series sharing relevant information and helpful hints for those of you in our community who are caring for a loved one. Please feel free to share this with others in your family and neighborhood who may benefit.
c. Will he continue to decline or has his condition stabilized? If his condition will eventually require placement in a care facility, start doing your research now. Will he qualify for Medicaid coverage for long-term care? Don’t assume anything! Find an advocate or care manager who is knowledgeable or call your county’s social services department for information. d. If possible, visit local facilities and ask questions.
More than 50 million family caregivers in the U.S. provide services to loved ones, and often suffer from physical, emotional, and financial problems that impeded their ability to provide care in the present and to support their own care needs in the future. Are you one of them? 6. Be realistic: a. Are you able to care for your loved one? Does he need skilled care or more care than you can physically deliver? b. How long will your loved one be able to remain at home?
7. Give yourself credit: a. You have taken on the role of caregiver. You are the one person who is responsible

Disaster Preparedness By Tom Rapp Director of Adams/ E. Arapahoe RSVP The Senior Hub, Inc. RSVP is proud to announce that Slater Simon has joined RSVP as our Lead Volunteer for the Disaster Preparedness Speaks Team. Slater, who was an Administrator for Adams County Red Cross prior to his retirement, knows that preparing makes sense for older Americans. In the aftermath of all the most recent crisis events here in Colorado, Slater wants everyone to know that the time to GET READY is NOW! The likelihood that you and your family will recover from an emergency tomorrow often
depends on the planning and preparation done today. While each person’s abilities and needs are unique, every individual can take steps to prepare for all kinds of emergencies from fires and floods to potential terrorist attacks. By evaluating your own personal needs, you and your loved ones can be better prepared. Preparing makes sense for older Americans. GET A KIT , MAKE A PLAN, BE INFORMED. Better yet, schedule a presentation for your neighborhood or organization about disaster preparedness. Contact our Disaster Preparedness Speaking Team today. Call Tom Rapp, RSVP Department at 303-426-4408 to schedule a presentation.
The “power people” behind Excel Energy Thanks to Excel Energy funding and their people power, one senior in Commerce City was able to walk out of his home after being indoors for a year and unable to navigate his front steps. The Senior Hub was one of 41 non-profits through-
out Colorado chosen by Excel for their Day of Service honoring victims and first responders of 9/11. A team of Excel energy employees braved the sweltering weather and tirelessly and meticulously built a ramp which almost
looks like a piece of art. Other volunteers in the team mowed the lawn, cleaned out bushes, washed windows, moved pieces of old furniture, and beautified both front and back yards. Our thanks go to a job well done!
VOLUNTEER NEEDED!
For The Senior Hub front desk Fridays from 1-5p.m. Call 303-426-4408 ASAP if you are interested.

Theater offers stray of hope Several years ago Mr. On The Town — the No. 1 dog lover in our house — and I attended the play “Sylvia” at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. The A.R. Gurney play is about an empty-nest couple who take in a stray dog. I won’t give away the ending but this comedy will tug at your heartstrings. I guarantee you’ll love this play! “Sylvia” plays Nov. 7-17 at the LTAC. Tickets are available at www. LoneTreeArtsCenter.org or by calling 720-509-1000. Kim Staunton, a winner of a Denver Post Ovation Award, Henry Award, and Westword’s Best of Denver among her many local theater performances, stars as Kate. Two Tony Award nominees, director Randal Myler and Jonathan C. Kaplan (as Greg), also are part of the cast and crew. Denver favorites Jamie Ann Romero (Sylvia) and Randy Moore (Tom, Phyllis and Leslie) round out a stellar cast.
The “Earth Moves” show at the Arvada Center highlights new techniques and materials that ceramic artists are using. Eight invited artists and 42 juried artists from all over the country are represented in the show. Piece pictured is by Derek Reeverts. Piece pictured lower left is by Katherine Taylor.

Boys and Girls Club opens
The opening of the new Nancy P. Anschutz Center Boys and Girls Club on Tuesday, Oct. 1 was a celebration, despite a horrific shooting just 11 days earlier that left club advocate Terrance Roberts accused of attempted murder. Boldfaced names like Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, Phil and Nancy Anschutz, John and Paige Elway and Jack A. Vickers celebrated the opening of the new center at the Jack A. Vickers Boys & Girls Club. Denver politicos and movers and shakers joined the celebration of a new Park Hill community center that replaced a shopping area torched by a gang in 2008. Boys and Girls Club President and CEO John Aragoni held the sentiments of many in attendance when he said: “The community here had gone through its ups and downs. But we want to recognize its past with an eye on its future.”
`Girl’ power for CRA
Sonia Riggs, formerly the executive director of the American Institute of Architects Colorado, is the heir apparent to eventually take over Pete Meersman’s chief cheese job with the Colorado Restaurant Association as Meersman prepares for his departure. CRA chairman of the board Rich Yoke appointed a search committee to advertise, screen, interview and select someone to serve as the new CRA chief operating officer, a position that will transition into the president and chief executive officer when Meersman, who has led the CRA for 30-plus years, leaves the association Nov. 1, 2014. As of that date, Meersman will become the CRA’s chief strategy officer by serving on various affiliated boards and working on special projects until November 2019. Parker continues on Page 27

Two exhibits at Arvada Center examine changes in forms, methods By Clarke Reader
creader@ourcoloradonews.com
O
ld traditions and new technologies come together in the fall gallery exhibitions at the Arvada Center. “Earth Moves: Shifts in Ceramic Art and Design” takes a look at the changing world of ceramics, and how fine arts, industry and design are blending into that world. The show is on display in the Main Gallery. “Continuing Legacies: Evolving Ceramic Traditions” examines some of the oldest forms of ceramics, and brings artists who have been working in the form for generations to the fore. The show is on display in the Upper Gallery. Both shows will be on display at the center’s galleries, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., through Nov. 10. The galleries are open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday 1-5 p.m. “I think they’re really interesting shows — there are so many different things in both of them,” said curatorial assistant Kristin Bueb. “A lot of what’s on display is so much different from what people are used to, and shows how people can push the boundaries.” The shows were put together by the center’s ceramic coordinator Bebe Alexander, who said they were
extremely challenging because of the nature of the works. “With Earth Moves, the shifts in technology and design were the focus, and we wanted to display artists who are using new tools,” she said. The call for artists was put out in March, and jurors whittled the submissions down to eight invited artists and 42 juried artists from all over the country. Many of these artists are using computer-aided design and 3-D printing and renderings to add new diIF YOU GO mensions to their work. Some particularly striking installations on WHAT: “Earth display include a “Glyph” series from David Moves” and “ConKaufmann, who created porcelain models tinuing Legacies” of iPads and uses the finger swipes from the exhibitions screen to create modern hieroglyphics. WHERE: Arvada There is also a re-creation of a SynapCenter tic Lab by Donna Webb, that has maps, lab 6901 Wadsworth equipment and bottles and vials, which sugBlvd., Arvada gests the mixing of science and art in groundwater landscape. WHEN: Through Alexander said the “Continuing Legacies” Nov. 10 exhibit serves as a nice counterpoint to the Monday through main gallery, showing ancient forms of potFriday - 9 a.m. to tery and ceramics that have been practiced 6 p.m. for generations. “We have Takashi Nakazato, 13th generaSaturday - 10 a.m. to tion Japanese potter,” she said. “Also on dis5 p.m. play are the works of Kazu Oba, who studied Sunday - 1-5 p.m. with Nakazato and is on staff at the Center.” The pottery of Adam Field, studied under COST: Free seventh generation Korean potter, Kim llINFORMATION: Maan, was the germ of the exhibit idea, Al720-898-7200 or exander said. www.arvadacenter.

Legacy football falls to pomona Lightning unable to complete second half comeback By Kate Ferraro
kferraro@ourcoloradonews.com It seemed that nothing could go right for Legacy against the No. 8 Pomona during a late rally in the fourth quarter. On its homecoming night Oct. 4 at North Stadium, the Lightning was missing its leading running back Jared Camerlo and a few of its key linemen who could have been valuable in a 35-21 loss to the Panthers. “It was frustrating because we knew we were going to come out and play pretty well,” Legacy head coach Wayne Voorhees said. “They’re big and strong up front, and we just weren’t able to match up very well.” Legacy’s night began on the wrong foot when kicker Hunter Rainwater missed a 20-yard field goal three minutes into the first quarter. After Pomona fumbled the ball 30 seconds later, the Lightning recovered and marched down field that ended in a five-yard touchdown run by quarterback Matt Lynch, guiding his team a 7-0 lead. Legacy didn’t lead for very long since Pomona running back Chris Marquez ran for 36 yards to tie the score at seven at the end of the first. “The biggest thing is we just couldn’t see him,” Voorhees said of Marquez. “They have a big strong offensive line, he finds a seam in there and he’s quick, and obviously we didn’t stop him very well.” The Panthers scored twice more in the second quarter; one touchdown happening after defensive back Jack Sale intercepted one of Lynch’s passes. Pomona eventually scored with 42.7 seconds left in the half, leading 21-7 at halftime. Marquez opened up the second half with a four-yard touchdown run, increasing the score to 28-7. Legacy senior Trent Johnson answered back quickly when he caught a two-yard pass from Lynch, making the score 28-14. Things started looking up for the Lightning when linebacker Kaleb Martin caught an interception three min-

The late rally continued when wide receiver Michael Straface caught a 15-yard touchdown pass from Lynch, tightening the score to 28-21. “I thought he played pretty well,” Voorhees said of Lynch’s performance. “He played very poise and he found his receivers, trusted his protection and he ran the ball hard when he could pull it. I’m proud of his effort today.” Legacy’s attempted comeback came to a halt when Panthers’ running back Lukas Russell scored the final touchdown of the match with 54 seconds left. The Lightning were unable to muster up any more
points the rest of the night. Marquez ended the night with 32 carries for 269 yards. Lynch carried the ball 16 times for 64 yards. The loss worsened Legacy’s record to 2-4 overall, 0-2 in league. The school will play an undefeated Fairview team Oct. 10 at North Stadium. “We know what our game plan is going to be, and we just have to come out and execute it,” Voorhees said. “Our defense is going to have to change a few things to stop the pass, because we know they’re going to throw it a little bit. Offensively, we have to play keep away. Hopefully, we can match what we did offensively and keep them off the field.”
