Amazed by the colors of Colorado Running the distance — in Egypt I live in Cairo — I’m an hour-and-a-half away from the Pyramids of Giza. I’m in a program called the YES Program. This (is an exchange) program between the U.S. State Department and countries that have a majority of Muslim population. I applied to the program in 2014, but I didn’t make it. Every year, there are 2,500 applicants, and they pick only 50. I applied again in 2015, and I made it. I went to Mountain Range High School (in Westminster). I go home (Egypt) in two weeks. After finishing high school in Egypt, I’ll either stay and go to college there, or I’ll come back to Colorado for college. I want to go to UCCS or CSU. I want to be a college athlete. I just feel myself when I’m running. When I’m in a bad mood, I go for a run, my mood totally changes. The competitive life of running is really enjoyable. It teaches you to

Westminster police seeking public reviews Results of staﬃng, eﬃciency study expected in the fall BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A review of Westminster Police Department operations is looking for residents’ opinions about how the department operates and how it can improve. “I’m excited about it because I think it’s the right thing to do — not because we have huge problems,” said Chief Tim Carlson, a 30-year veteran of the police department who is nearing his first anniversary as chief. “I think we have strong support from the community and our city council and city manager. But this is kind of a once-in-a-career opportunity for a new chief to get a look at the organization from top to bottom, what do we do well and what do we need to tweak.”

WESTMINSTER POLICE SURVEY To participate in the Westminster Police Department survey, visit https://www.surveymonkey. com/r/LNTKZXT. An assessment team from the International Association of Chiefs of Police visited Westminster in midMay, meeting with Carlson’s staff, other city employees, managers and the mayor. The team also met with community groups, including local hospitals, schools and businesses, to talk about their expectations. “The assessors wanted that meeting to give them an idea of how our systems work and how it all fits in with a broader perspective of the whole city,” he said. The assessors also downloaded data and statistics about emergency calls, the duration of emergency calls and the amount of time it takes dispatchers to SEE POLICE, P4

Art on Parade tour offered June 15 Northglenn staging guided visit of public art project

This butterfly sculpture, located along the east side of E.B. Rains Park at 117th and Community Center Drive, will be one of the stops June 15 on the city-hosted tour of Northglenn’s public art.

BY CINDY J. BUECHLER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

With a growing collection of public art sculptures scattered around the city, Northglenn officials figure it makes sense to show residents what they have. “In recent years the program had grown enough that we felt like our citizens needed a special invitation,” said Michael Stricker, Cultural Programs & Senior Center supervisor. The city has offered an Art on Parade tour for seniors every year since 2010, consistently selling it out. This year’s first tour is scheduled to step off at 9 a.m. June 15 at the E.B Rains Memorial Park. The tour has room for 14 people, so organizers encourage people to sign up early at the city’s website, www. northglenn.org/playnorthglenn. They can also register by calling 303-4508800. Two more tours are scheduled later this summer, on July 20 and Aug. 17, and registration for both is open now. The City of Northglenn began acquiring sculptures in 2001, with the bulk of the funding coming from the Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation.

CINDY J. BUECHLER

The first year the city offered the tour, there was space for 50 residents. It has reduced the scale since then, Stricker said. “It’s a more intimate tour with only 10 to 15 people,” he said. The tour begins with the city’s Veterans Memorial, located on the park’s west side between city hall and the recreation center. “Everyone loves the Veterans Memorial,” Stricker said. “It’s a very impactful sculpture because of the size and the message. It honors most of the 20th century military conflicts the U.S.

was engaged in.” From there the van visits art sites around the city. Northglenn has 23 permanent public art sculptures spread around the city now, Stricker said. “It’s a substantial number for a small city like ours,” Stricker said. “The program has added a lot of community pride to the city and its neighborhoods.” The tour wraps up at the newly dedicated sculpture garden in Eleanor M. Wyatt Centennial Park. The city has already approved four sculptures there, Stricker said, with plans to install 16 more. The city will add six temporary sculptures for the tour this year, with residents voting for their favorites. The two with the most votes will become a permanent part of the city’s collection, purchased by the foundation. Some other sculptures have been donated by the artists and many of the

Stricker said the tour began as a service for seniors and they remain the bulk of the patrons. “This year, though, we are advertising more outside of the Northglenn senior organization and are starting to get more groups that maybe don’t normally attend events at the Northglenn Senior Center,” he said. It’s an interesting time, both culturally and civically. “It’s a great way to get to spend time directly with patrons and citizens and have cultural discussions,” Stricker said. “Not only do you have great discussions about the artwork and the importance of publicly accessible art, but you get to see every neighborhood in Northglenn. A lot of folks that go on the tour will comment on how they hadn’t been to certain neighborhoods even though they’ve lived in Northglenn for decades.”

respond, police responses and case reports. The last step is a one-question resident survey at www.surveymonkey.com/r/LNTKZXT — just a single box where residents can type in their opinions about the police department. “What do you think of the Westminster Police, as a member of the community? That’s what we want to know,” Carlson said. “People may be expecting a variety of questions, but we wanted to leave it really openended. We just want their input based on their experiences — good, bad or indifferent. What can we do better?” All that data will be compared to the association’s records from around the world. “We won’t be bound to do anything, but whether it’s staffing or systems or processes,” Carlson said, “I expect them to take a good look at our department and our community

and give us some recommendations that can help guide us for the next three to five years.” City Manager Don Tripp said he thinks it’s a good idea for the department to re-evaluate itself since the city is changing so much. “We know things will be changing in our community over the next 10 years particularly,” Tripp said. “I’m proud of the fact that we are looking ahead. Westminster has a reputation for really good planning, and this is another example of that.” Carlson hopes to have a preliminary report back in September, with the final draft wrapped up in November. He said he’s open to new ideas. “It’s interesting being a part of this organization for 30 years and then you get to this chair and wonder, ‘Why do we do things this way?’“ Carlson said. “You don’t realize until you sit here and look at it. Maybe we do things one way because it works. But that’s why it’s good to get an outside perspective to either reaffirm what we do or give us some ideas about how to work more efficiently.”

New Crisis Center in Westminster aims to be welcoming Facility becomes more spacious for those needing services BY MEGAN M. CRUMLEY SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

After 2 1/2 years of operating from within 84th Avenue Neighborhood Health Center, Community Reach Center’s Walk-In Crisis Center and Crisis Stabilization Unit moved to a larger, more functional facility adjacent to the health-care complex Community Reach Center provides crisis services and suicide intervention counseling 24/7, 365 days a year. The Walk-In Crisis Center in Westminster is open to people of all ages with any type of crisis. “We have an open-door policy,” Jaime Webster, the Crisis Stabilization Unit’s program manager, explained. “Whatever people need, we’re here.” The center has three different departments: the Walk-In Clinic (WIC), Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) and the Mobile Crisis Team. “Anybody of any age can walk into the clinic at any time,” said Webster. “They can get case management resources, they can talk to a therapist and they can talk to a peer specialist (someone who has experienced a behavioral or substance health issue and are in recovery). We’re there for support and crisis evaluation.” The center helps consumers with coping skills and gets them connected with the support they need. If there are safety issues, the clinic recommends staying in CSU. CSU has 16 beds for consumers who want to stay overnight. Consumers can stay for up to five days. At

this point, they will have either moved through the immediate crisis and have the support and appointments they need for their return home or, if they need further help, CSU will help them transfer to a different facility. The Mobile Crisis Team responds to calls made by consumers, family members and emergency response officers.

the move except for a brief period on on the morning of the opening. “The transition was really smooth,” said Webster. “The team really worked together to make the move happen.” The new location has many improved features and a more open and pleasing atmosphere. “The old rooms were just hospital white,” Webster said. “Now we have this nice blue and this lovely artwork.” Some of the most noticeable improvements are a dedicated outside access so consumers don’t have to go

Improved location The new center opened May 24. The facility was operational the entire time during

through the health-care complex, a much larger waiting room and windows, which the previous center didn’t have. “Both our staff and our consumers really appreciate being able to see the outside,” emphasized Webster. Other improvements include the addition of a dedicated staff lounge, a nicer kitchen area and a larger lounge space for consumers. The previous lounge space was segregated into rooms, and “there wasn’t a general space where everyone could be. Here the consumers have a really nice space with couches and chairs where they’ve all been interacting and hanging out,” said Webster. “We’ve noticed a decrease in consumers just wanting to stay in their rooms all day.” CSU and the community “There are many benefits

to having the Crisis Center in Westminster,” said Sgt. Edna Hendershot, of the Westminster Police Department. “One of the most important benefit is that residents have close, direct access to all the services that the center offers. Previously this would have been sought elsewhere.” The Westminster Police Department has been an avid supporter of CSU since it opened. “Police officers have interaction there for many different reasons,” explained Hendershot. “Officers may request the assistance of the Mobile Crisis Team who can respond ‘in the field’ alongside them, and officers routinely make Crisis Center referrals to individuals or family members for support and guidance.” Westminster Police Chief Tim Carlson said: “The Crisis Center and Community Reach are invaluable partners with the Westminster Police Department in providing holistic services to our community, particularly to those experiencing a crisis point in their lives.” “Many times police officers are the ones who are called to assist in times of crisis even though it is not a criminal event but a mental health event. To have a professional resource in close proximity is a tremendous asset to both our officers and our community members,” added Carlson. “I really see the benefit in having a place where people can come to talk to somebody and get connected with resources,” Webster pointed out. “The volume we’ve seen coming in shows that there was a need in the community for a space where people could come and do that. Our staff and consumers are really grateful this space exists, and everyone is really excited to continue to utilize it.”

Water World unveils cabanas, drinks, new mascot Wally the Walrus was getting long in the tusk

WATER WORLD PRICES General Admission (48 inches tall or taller): $41.99

BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

New cabanas, new sun-shading bungalows, adult beverage options and a new take on Water World’s mascot will greet water park patrons this summer. Joann Cortez, communications director for the Hyland Hills Recreation District, said the district opened for the 2017 season on Sunday, May 28, a day later than officials had hoped. Blame rain for the delay, she said. “We were disappointed, but we’ve done well since,” Cortez said. Little has changed compared to last season. Many of the attractions got some updated features over the winter but prices for a day at the water park remain the same as last season. The park did add more opportunities for patrons to get out of the sun, construction of 10 more wood cabanas and 24 more bungalows, or fabric sunshades. “It’s one of the things that makes us unique in the world of water parks,” Cortez said. “If you’ve been to to water parks around the country, they really are like concrete jungles. But we have so much grass, it really is a park atmosphere.” Cabanas are wooden structures available for groups of up to 15 patrons, complete with dining tables and chairs,

lounges, limited wi-fi access, a personal beverage cooler with ice and the ability to bring in food. A deluxe version includes a fan, tube rentals, meals for four and ice cream. Water World now has 42 rentable cabanas in four locations around the park. “They are really popular features of the park,” Cortez said. “It’s a three-sided wooden structure ranging from pretty basic to full service.” The park also rents fabric sunshades, with two lounges, a table and electrical outlets. Cortez said the park is also offering beer and frozen cocktails for the

first time in the new Watering Hole restaurant. Wally’s replacement Hyland Hills is also debuting a new mascot, a younger version of the venerable Wally the Walrus that has greeted guests for decades. “Some people have grown up with Wally, and he’s been around for 38 years,” she said. “It’s a big deal to get a new mascot. He’s a teenage walrus — he’s really adorable.”

The district is asking patrons to help name the new mascot. Water World is taking suggestions on the park’s Facebook page, @waterworldco, through June 15. The old mascot will be retired this summer. “Wally as people know him is going away,” Cortez said. “People have been so connected to him, we can’t see just bringing in a new Wally. People have grown up with him and his beard has gotten whiter and his tusks have gotten longer. We just wanted everyone to have a bit of ownership in the new mascot. And who knows? He might be around the next 38 years.”

Summer tourism heats up in local communities Outdoor recreation a big draw across the metro area

Lifeguard Samuel Soverign, 17, of Broomfield, watches over the Thunder Bay Wave Pool at Water World in Federal Heights on June 1. The stateof-the art attraction draws people from throughout Colorado and as far away as Japan and Germany. “We have gotten a lot of national coverage from the Travel Channel and USA Today, so people know about us,” communications director Joann Cortez said. “They come from every state, and especially every contiguous state.”

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Tourism is a major industry in Colorado, with nearly 78 million visitors spending $19.1 billion in 2015, according to the Colorado Tourism Office. In the summer, outdoor recreation opportunities draw tourists by the thousands to locations throughout the metro area. This helps generate money for the economies of local cities and counties, as these visitors often patronize restaurants and retail locations near their primary destination. Consider these major draws, just to name a handful: In the west metro area, there are Red Rocks, Clear Creek, Green Mountain and Bear Creek Lake. The north metro area has the outdoor water recreation park Water World. And the south metro area boasts a trio of popular state parks: Castlewood Canyon, Chatfield and Roxborough. “It makes sense that people visiting our state want to be outside,” said Katie Matthews, communications supervisor with Jeffco Open Space. Jeffco Open Space covers more than 54,000 acres in Jefferson County and includes 29 regional parks and 236 miles of trail systems. In 2016, an estimated 2.4 million people visited Jeffco Open Space areas. “We call Jeffco the gateway to the Rockies,” Matthews said. “It’s really easy for people to get outdoors and have a great experience.” Summer swelter One of the biggest summertime destinations along the Front Range, Hyland Hills Water World absolutely depends on sweltering temperatures. Now in its 38th year, the park and its series of slides, wave pools and attractions have long been a Denver metroarea hot weather draw. “We know we get people coming from all over Colorado – Fort Collins, Grand Junction, the eastern slope,” said District Communications Director Joann Cortez. “We know that because we do license plate surveys. We check to see where people are coming from.” But Cortez said the park also draws from outside of Colorado – well outside of Colorado. “We have guests from as far away as Japan and Germany,” she said. “We have gotten a lot of national coverage from the Travel Channel and USA Today, so people know about us. They come from every state, and especially every contiguous state.” The park is open for about 100 days each summer, Memorial Day to Labor Day, and will have about 500,000 visitors during that time, Cortez said.

STEFAN BRODSKY

Daily visits can vary from 3,000 visitors to 10,000 visitors, depending on the weather. “We’re completely weather-dependent,” she said. “We can get surprise super days where the weather is great and it all falls into place. And we can end up with 11,000 people in the park.” From open spaces to acclaimed music venue With activities like hiking, biking, climbing, fishing, bird watching, horseback riding and camping available in Jeffco parks, Sam Bailey, president and CEO of the Jefferson County Economic Development Corporation, said it’s easy to see the outdoor recreation community in full swing. “The density you’ll feel definitely goes up in the summertime with people utilizing outdoor recreation and cultural amenities,” Bailey said. The world-renowned concert venue Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, just outside Golden, is also a big draw for tourism in Jeffco, Bailey said. “Red Rocks and the concert series that goes on there arguably pull a lot of activity and spending into the county for people coming in to see a concert.” The amphitheater not only hosts large concerts, but in the summer it is also home to several specialty events, including Yoga on the Rocks and Film on the Rocks. The music venue is also surrounded by 738 acres of Red Rocks Mountain Park, which includes hiking and biking trails along with geological wonders. The park is one of more than 10 mountain parks run by the City of Denver. With visitors from both in state and out of state, Bailey said that Jefferson County sees tourism dollars in a myriad of ways, including lodging, foods and gas. Tourist dollars not only help the local economy, Matthews said, it also helps maintain the open space parks because a half-cent sales tax goes back to Jeffco Open Space. “Anybody spending money in the

Those taking advantage of the Castle Rock Zipline Tours fly overhead at Philip S. Miller Park. JESSICA GIBBS county is contributing to conserve land for generations to come,” Matthews said. The great outdoors Outdoor recreation companies also see a spike in business in the summer months. One company that does all its business during summer is Colorado Watersports, a water sport rental company located on the shore of Roxbourough Bay on Chatfield Reservoir inside the state park just southwest of Littleton. Boating is among the park’s most popular activities and the reservoir can be quite busy during the summer season, which runs May to September. Getting people on the water is Colorado Watersports sole purpose. “Our clientele is anybody who wants to get outside,” said Audra Tromly, summer camp director at Colorado Watersports, which is run by its parent company Victoria Sailing School. Colorado Watersports opened last year with rentals of stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, canoes, sailboats and corcls — a popular new round boat for kids. This year, the company hopes to quadruple last year’s rentals, Tromly siad. “The ultimate goal is that all our

equipment is out on the water.” In Castle Rock, Philip S. Miller Park is becoming a draw for not only Castle Rock residents but also out-of-towners. The 320-acre park boasts 7.4 miles of native-surface trail networks and a 200-step challenge hill. The park, which is run by the city, is also home to privately operated Castle Rock Zip Line Tours — a zip line course with 10 lines stretched throughout the park’s ridgelines — and the privately operated Epic Adventure Tower, which allows users to scale a 40-foot climbing wall, zip and jump from a 40-foot platform or choose to free fall from a 70-foot platform. The addition of the 2,000-seat amphitheater last year is starting to attract bigger national acts in its second season of summer concerts. For example, multi-platinum country duo Thompson Square will perform at the amphitheater on June 10. For Jean Gordon, director of the Arvada Visitors Center, celebrating classic outdoor recreation activities is a great way to bring vibrancy to a city. “Residents patronize the business, but when you’re a tourist, you need to be busy all day long,” Gordon said. “That is valuable revenue for any city.”

Clinic brings medical staff, services to high school halls Work on Thornton High health center gets underway BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A new health clinic in the center of Thornton High School won’t just make students healthier, according to Principal Jennifer Skrobela, it will improve their academic performance as well. “We are now going to have health professionals on-site just to talk to our young adults and to answer their questions and help them in their own choices,” Skrobela said. “As a result, I think we’ll see improvements in our attendance rates. As a result, I think we’ll see healthier, happier and more confident young adults at Thornton High School.” Skrobela and other Adams 12 Five Star officials and representatives from Kids First Health Care kicked off renovation work May 31 on the new high school clinic, the first for the school district. “Ultimately, we will see students who achieve at higher levels,” Skrobela said. “As we all know, the more time you spend in school, engaged in learning and feeling at your best, the higher you perform.” When it opens this fall, the clinic will feature three examination rooms,

FAST FACTS The Thornton High School clinic will have 10 rooms — a reception area, two counseling rooms, three exam rooms, an office, break room, lab and physician’s study. It will have at least three full-time staffers — a floating physician, a nurse practitioner and medical assistant. Services offered include:

• Preventative health visits • Vaccinations • Sports physicals • Treatment for illness, infections and injuries • Reproductive health services • Counseling for chronic conditions, like asthma and obesity • Mental health counseling

two counseling offices and a lab for a physician, a nurse practitioner and medical assistant. It will serve the 1,700 students at Thornton High as well as 1,085 other students from around the district attending Bollman Technical

Education Center. “Students will get top-notch health services here, right at school,” Skrobela said. “If you are not feeling well you can come right in and get helped.” It’s not the first of its kind. There are

more than 2,000 such clinics around the country and Kids First Health Care Executive Director Norma Portnoy said her company currently runs clinics around the state, including at Westminster High School. The clinic is the first in Adams 12, and district Student Engagement Initiatives Director Johnny Terrell thanked Portnoy’s group for helping it happen in Thornton. “We were at the table, wondering how this would happen, and didn’t expect anyone as altruistic as Kids First to come along and say they’d help build this thing, get the money and make it happen,” Terrell said. “We said ‘What’s the catch?’ But there was no catch but taking care of kids.” Portnoy said plans call for opening a similar clinic in Brighton in the fall of 2018. The clinic will offer a range of services targeted to teens — vaccinations, physicals for high school sports and counseling. It is scheduled to open in August or September, Skrobela said. The clinic replaces two social studies rooms in a busy central hallway on the high school’s bottom floor, Portnoy said. “It’s in the perfect location, in a highly trafficked hallway,” Portnoy said. “It’s not stuck in an endless hallway where the kids won’t ever walk by.”

Downtown garage a sign of things to come BY KEVIN M. SMITH SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Westminster’s newest parking garage may be ready to open June 7, but it’s just the beginning for the development of the area. John Burke, Downtown Westminster development and construction manager, said the temporary certificate of occupancy would be ready by June 2. “We’ve got just a couple punch list items to knock out,” Burke said. The new garage — with the main entrance on the south side accessible from 88th and Eaton streets — will be six stories tall with 888 parking spaces, according to Burke. Minneapolis-based construction and design

company The Opus Group managed the project. There are eight electric vehicle charging stations and the garage will be the first publicly owned Parksmart Silver “Green Garage” in the nation, according to Burke. Parksmart offers certification based on a point system from the construction process through amenities offered once opened. “Developed by industry experts, the Parksmart framework guides projects toward innovative, solutions-oriented strategies,” the organization’s website — http://parksmart.gbci.org — states. Points are awarded in three categories: management, programs and technology structure design. A skybridge on level three of the garage will connect directly to the secThe proposed layout of Westminster Downtown, north of 88th Avenue, which includes the city’s new parking garage. The garage is due to open June 7. COURTESY GRAPHIC

Law Enforcement runs for Special Olympics Colorado The Summer Games begin June 9 BY BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Fifteen agencies from across Colorado participated in the 2017 Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics June 1. Members of the Arvada Police Department and surrounding agencies including Westminster, Jefferson County, Wheat Ridge and Lakewood, run the 13.1 miles from 88th and Wadsworth to the Colorado State Capitol, where they were joined by members of the Douglas County Sheriffs Office, the Denver Police Department, Colorado State Patrol, the 18th Judicial District Attorneys Office and Special Olympics athletes and supporters, among others. Each year, local law enforcement agencies gather as a community to raise awareness and money for Colorado Special Olympics with the Law Enforcement Torch Run.

THE FATE OF OUR LADY OF VISITATION

Parishioners of ‘little church’ strive to keep doors open Archdiocese ends Masses at Our Lady of Visitation, which drew about 100 people from across Front Range

m M a G O 3 c t

i s m m d t c t T p n a

BY TABATHA DEANS SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

For more than 70 years, parishioners of Our Lady of Visitation, a mission church at 2531 W. 65th Place in Westminster, have gathered from across the Front Range every Sunday for a one-hour Mass in the small, pink building where generations of families have worshipped. But that tradition ended on the last Sunday in April following the Archdiocese of Denver’s decision, parishioners said, to close the building to services and use it instead as an event center. Upset parishioners — who want the archdiocese to reinstate at least one Sunday Mass a month — say the archdiocese gave them ambiguous and inconsistent reasons for shuttering the church doors. “They said there was a shortage of priests,” said Federico Peña, a former Denver mayor who has attended the weekly Mass since marrying his wife in the church 13 years ago. “Then they said it was in our best spiritual interest to attend churches in our own neighborhoods. I believe a Catholic church that is losing parishioners would be happy that people are willing to make the sacrifice to make the drive to go to a little mission church.” The Archdiocese of Denver declined to comment on the closing of Our Lady of Visitation. “We’re not really answering any more questions about this matter,” said Karna Swanson, executive director of communications for the archdiocese. “We prefer to defer all questions to the Bishop’s letter and Fact Sheet.” A May 5 letter to Our Lady council members from Archbishop Samuel Aquila describes a difficult decision based on changing demographics and the challenge of how to best meet the needs of the Catholic population. “Across the territory of the Archdiocese I am responsible for 148 different locations that serve over 550,000 Catholics,” Aquila said in the letter. “The city is greatly expanding, all of us recognize the dramatic change in demographics, and it is challenging to accommodate the Catholics in the areas of growth. At the same time, it makes more sense to integrate a small mission community into nearby established parishes.” Notification of last Mass Our Lady of Visitation is a simple flat-roofed, pink brick building on a dead-end portion of 65th Place

Established in the 1940s in donated street cars, it was served initially by traveling priests. Parishioners donated land and built the church in 1952, according to archives from the Denver Catholic Register, the state’s largest Catholic newspaper. In recent times, other than Sunday Masses, the church also celebrated other sacraments, such as baptisms, confirmations and funerals, and held an annual bazaar that was its primary fundraiser.

members that the April 30 Mass would be the last held at the church, said Sandi Garcia, who has attended Our Lady for more than 30 years and was on the church’s financial committee. Peña and several parishioners say the archdiocese subsequently refused to meet with church council members or parishioners to discuss options for keeping the Sunday Mass, which was celebrated weekly by one of three priests sent by Holy Trinity Catholic Church, a parish with 3,000 parishioners about two miles away, also in Westminster. “It wasn’t until months later, when we scheduled a press conference and a protest outside the new residence of Archbishop Aquila,” Peña said, “that they finally started returning our calls.” That protest took place April 26. A petition with 1,250 signatures also was submitted to Aquila, who noted in his May letter that since attendance at Our

Our Lady of Visitation, a Catholic mission west of Federal Boulevard, began its life as two train cars that church members turned into a church. SCOTT TAYLOR Lady Masses has averaged 108 people for the past 10 years, the petition included signatures from individuals not regularly affiliated with the church. Chancellor David Uebbing of the Denver Archdiocese, on a voicemail message in response to questions for comment from Colorado

Community Media, said the archdiocese would only speak “about the history of the mission.” Is it a parish or a mission? That word — mission — is a sticking point between Our Lady parishioners and the archdiocese. A mission is defined as

a designated space where some of the sacraments, such as Mass, can be celebrated, according to the website Catholic Answers. A parish covers a larger geographical area and may include other facilities, such as a rectory or parochial school. It also provides programs and organizations

in which congregants can participate. The fact sheet that Swanson from the archdiocese referred to, which can be found on the archdiocese’s website, states that Our Lady of Visitation “is a mission of Holy Trinity Parish. It is not a standalone parish” and it “will remain a property of Holy Trinity Parish.” Garcia, however, contends those statements are misleading. “OLV (Our Lady of Visitation) was received as a parish by Archbishop Urban Vehr in 1952, when our current building was constructed,” Garcia said. Articles submitted by the church to the Colorado Historical Society detail that occasion, she said. “OLV was built on donated land, using donated labor. We have always paid taxes to the archdiocese as a parish,” Garcia said. “We were placed administratively under Holy Trinity in 1958, but we have never received money from the archdiocese, (and) have continued to pay into the archdiocese.” SEE CHURCH, P24

VOICES Heartfelt congratulations to all graduates

he familiar musical notes to “Pomp and Circumstance” have gotten a workout the past two to three weeks as high school and college graduating seniors entered the gymnasium, football stadium or auditorium for their commencements. It was a proud time for graduates, their families and friends as years of studying, testing and growing up along with many other aspects of their respective lives flashed before them and family members. It is a milestone event in every graduate’s life! Grandparents’ pride My wife Ann (Grammie) and I (Grandpa)

experienced that same pride, emotion and life’s flashback recently at our oldest grandson’s graduation from Erie High School. Ian Christopher Meadows distinguished himself academically with a high gradepoint average for four years and was a member in the National Honor Society. We have been blessed to live close to our middle daughter Nicole, our son-in-law Scott and our two grandsons, Ian and Derek, since the birth of the two boys. It has allowed us to enjoy our grandsons each step of the way, observe their growth and development and be a part of their lives. When we stopped to reflect on Ian’s life,

we asked ourselves — how did the past 18 years go by so fast? And here we are attending his high school graduation? Such is life! As we grow older, time marches on at a faster pace. At the same time, our four grandchildren (two granddaughters live in Katy, Texas) keep us young and on our toes! Congratulations to Ian and all of the graduates.

Colorado lawmakers showed true leadership this year

ommunities thrive when their leaders come together to support the crucial entities that make them strong—things like education, healthcare and transportation, among others. We place great trust in our elected officials to make decisions that strengthen and improve these key elements and, in turn, our communities. This legislative session, despite long hours, heated debates and numerous negotiations, we are incredibly pleased that our state leaders honored their commitment to community. This year, a state budget crisis threatened key community institutions, especially in rural areas. And on the last day of the state legislative session, the Colorado General Assembly gave final ap-

candidates for Westminster mayor and city council seats. Also, I had mentioned that Councilmember Bruce Baker had not yet filed to seek re-election. Well, now we know what Mr. Baker’s plan is. To the surprise of some, he has filed to challenge incumbent mayor Herb Atchison along with contender Rick Seymour. Baker could have sought a second term as a councilmember. With three mayoral candidates, the dynamics change and it’s no longer a case of “winner takes all.” Under Westminster City Code provisions, a candidate for mayor must achieve at least 40 percent of the vote cast among mayoral candidates to win the race. If none of the candidates achieves this requirement, a runoff election must be held between

failed, the Hospital Provider Fee would have continued to disrupt the state General Fund and hospitals would have continued to be slashed to balance the budget, impacting hospitals across the state, causing some rural hospitals to close and patients to lose access to care. That’s not to say it was easy. Both political parties made major compromises to ultimately reach an agreement, demonstrating their resolve to put constituents first. We recognize the bill isn’t perfect. At Children’s Colorado, there are parts of SB-267 that wouldn’t be our preference, but we knew it was the answer to greater issues, and we appreciate that legislators on both sides of the aisle also recognized the greater good within the bill. The bill sponsors—Senators Jerry

the two top vote-getters. Finally, there is talk on the street that the Democratic Party may bring a female candidate to the race to offset the three Republican Party male candidates. (Yes, I know that city council and mayoral candidates are required to run on a nonpartisan basis, but it is reality that most of them run with a political party backing them). If a runoff election were to come to pass, it would be an extra cost to the city. I asked the city staff for a current estimate, but they have not finalized their calculation. Four years ago, when there were three mayoral candidates, the city clerk had estimated a cost in excess of $100,000. It wasn’t necessary, as Herb Atchison received over 41 percent of the mayoral vote. Some change on city council is a ‘given’ While it might seem early to voters that candidates have already declared their intentions, it really is not early. Fundraising and door-to-door cam-

Sonnenberg and Lucia Guzman and Representatives KC Becker and Jon Becker—showed what leadership looks like, refusing to quit because they knew how high the stakes were for their constituents. We also want to thank the Adams and Arapahoe County legislators who did right by Colorado in supporting SB-267: Senators Kevin Priola, Jack Tate, Nancy Todd and Rhonda Fields, and Representatives Dafna MichaelsonJenet, Dominique Jackson and Mike Weissman. The collaboration it took to pass SB-267 should serve as a model of what can happen when leaders come together to support the communities they represent. As Colorado’s largest safety net healthcare provider for children, we thank these lawmakers for doing what’s right for kids and what’s right for Colorado. Heidi Baskfield is the executive director of advocacy for Children’s Hospital Colorado.

paigning are two key elements in any campaign for public office. Both are time-consuming, so hitting it early is important to be successful. With Councilmember Baker’s announcement and the previous decision by Councilmember Alberto Garcia to not seek re-election, two new faces on the Westminster City Council are assured. Only one incumbent council candidate, Emma Pinter, is seeking re-election. This is very unusual for Westminster’s city council races. Incumbents usually have a clear edge in being victorious and most times they run for a second four-year term. So, the makeup of the city council will be different to some degree and perhaps the political persuasion will be modified depending on the successful candidates. The same would hold true for the successful mayoral candidate. Issues to be addressed Clearly, there are issues for both mayoral and city council candi-

dates to address. For example, the firefighters’ collective bargaining effort-election and subsequent collective bargaining agreement are still on the minds of some Westminster voters. Councimember Garcia was their number one advocate, but will not be on city council after the November election. The whole trash-hauling issue, which ended in failure by those members of city council pushing it, is definitely still on the minds of many of us. The progress and the amount of incentives to developers involving the New Downtown development are often mentioned in conversation among Westy voters. Stay tuned for more over the summer and into the fall. Bill Christopher is a former Westminster city manager and RTD board member. His opinions are not necessarily those of Colorado Community Media.

is the season — for grill scraping and sirloin marinating on patios throughout the state. But not for vegetarians, who often end up buying the same frozen veggie burger, not eating or not showing up at all to these meat-centralized social events. Andy Floyd, executive chef at Kitchen Table Cooking School in Greenwood Village, believes that an entire category of food is being ignored: vegetables. “When you start to put different vegetables on the grill, you have a whole new category to experiment with,” Floyd said. “Anything you pick up in the produce section can have a place on the grill.” Floyd has taught culinary arts for 18 years. He started teaching after working in the industry for 10 years, in three-star Michelin restaurants in France and Washington, D.C. Anything that can be cooked on the stove can be cooked on a grill, Floyd said. Grilling any food, Floyd said, gives it a distinguishable char from high-heat searing and generates a taste not found in any other cooking method. “You get this whole different flavor profile that you don’t get on the stove,” Floyd said. “You start to think of combining other vegetables as the main event.” Throughout his cooking career, Floyd’s experiments on the grill have led to some delicious discoveries. Here, he shares his favorite ways to grill veggies. Potatoes Cutting a potato in half, season it with oils and spices, then grill it on each side. If you lightly mash the potato into the grill, Floyd said, there will be more charred flavoring.

Portobello mushrooms These are a “no brainer” when it comes to grilling veggies, Floyd said. These mushrooms absorb liquids well, allowing them to hold endless flavors. Eggplants After salting slices of eggplant, Floyd adds olive oil and grills until the slices are charred on each side. This is one of his favorite vegetables to grill. Carrots, sweet potatoes, yams, beets When these veggies are grilled, their natural sugars create a caramelized char on the vegetable. Cut them into chunks. Sweet onions After peeling off the outer skin, cut the onion in half along the outer equator. Put powdered bouillon, vinegar, salt and pepper on the inside. Close up the onion and grill inside aluminum foil. For an extra kick, Floyd recommends sprinkling some miso paste in the onion.

Saying goodbye to a maker of musical memories

ometimes it can be difficult to explain why the death of a musician, actor or writer affects us as much as it does. Nine times out of 10, the artist is a person we’ve never met, never shook hands with, or heard LINER directly address us. NOTES But we still feel like we know them, —or better, they know us — because of how their art seemed to capture something uniquely true about who we are. Maybe it’s a feeling we’ve always had, but never put into words, or Clarke Reader something we wanted to say, but never had the courage. When Gregg Allman, the voice and driving force behind the Allman Brothers for decades, died on May 27 at age 69, it felt like the death of someone I knew. Perhaps the biggest reason Allman’s death made me so sad is that he and his music remind me so much of my dad, who at 61 is one of Allman’s biggest fans. Like many people my age, I was introduced to the Allman Brothers because they were one of those musicians that seemed to be constantly blaring out of

speakers wherever my dad happened to be. Could’ve been the car stereo as my brother and I rode around as he ran errands, our home system as he’d do work around the house, or his headphones when he’d be reading on vacation. As much as we may not want to admit it, the music our parents played while we were growing up gets intermingled with our DNA, and it affects our taste. That’s just how it goes. No matter how cool we try to seem, like we discovered Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin or the Allman Brothers in our own way, somewhere back there our parents hit play on an album, cassette or CD and got us started. Of course, I came to appreciate Allman for my own reasons. There was something quintessentially southern about his voice — how it always sounded warm, even when Allman was growling or howling. His career as a keys player is vastly underrated, mostly because he surrounded himself by some of the best guitar players around, and that musical generosity said a lot about who he was as a man. As THE southern rock group, I always appreciated how the Allman Brothers embraced the best parts of their surroundings and rebelled against the worst. As writer Drew Millard wrote in his tribute to Allman

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK

for Noisey, “Unlike Lynyrd Skynyrd, the band to which they are most often compared, the Allmans — a proudly multiracial group from the start — never flirted with Confederate imagery as a misguided symbol of southern rebellion against a wider world. Instead, they were southerners rebelling against the society that raised them.” But it was the personal connections to Allman’s music that made me a lifelong fan. Like the way that “Revival” is one of the all-time great road mixtape kickoff songs, or how few songs sound better than “Whipping Post” when you’ve just had a bad experience with a girlfriend. And if I had a crush on you, at some point you were going to get a mixtape with “Melissa” on it. It’s that perfect a love song. My favorite memories with Allman all involve seeing him live, sometimes with the whole family, but always with my dad. I remember one concert, years ago at Red Rocks, late in the season, and freezing rain started falling. Soaked and shivering, we eventually bailed early, but there were times during the performance when Allman and his band were really cooking, that you forgot all about the misery. That’s the power of truly great music.

Selection: Dan Auerbach’s “Waiting on a Song,” released on Nonesuch Records. Review: It might surprise longtime listeners of The Black Keys to hear that Auerbach’s (the duo’s front man) second solo release is light on the blues and heavy on the 70’s alt-country vibes. What’s even more surprising is how well he takes country and soft rock sounds, and adds a shimmer that only a master craftsman is capable of. Add the fact that John Prine is a co-writer on the title track, and guitar legend Duane Eddy lends a lick or two, and you have an album that feels both contemporary and timeless. Favorite song: “Never in My Wildest Dreams” Best song for a sunny morning: “Shine On Me”

Gregg Allman made truly great music. And for myself, my dad and many other fathers and sons, the Midnight Rider will be missed. Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colorado Community Media, he wonders if crossroads will ever let him go.

Exhibition on Western movies examines American mythology Denver Art Museum hosts show through next three months BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

They’re coming at you before you enter the glass gallery doors! A movie screen shows mounted horsemen rushing to the forefront — either chasing or evading someone else … These are clips from six different films, from historic black-and-white to contemporary, cycling continuously. And all are possibly inspired by a classic American image mounted to the left of the screen: Charles Remington’s large 1889 oil on canvas painting called “A Dash for the Timber,” loaned by the Amon Carter Museum in Fort Worth, Texas. The Denver Art Museum focuses on America’s special mythology in a new exhibit running through Sept. 10 called “The Western: An Epic in Art and Film.” This is the first such blend of still and moving images that emphasizes the artistic legacy and evolution contributing to the development of the Western genre. “It’s been a wonderful ride,” said DAM Director Christoph Heinrich, who also made a point of the support by the National Endowment for the Arts, which offers federal indemnity in addition to the usual high insurance coverage for art that is a national treasure.

Frederick Remington’s large oil painting “A Dash for the Timber” (1889) has served as inspiration for more than one film director for a galloping-mounted-riders scene. It is exhibited in “The Western: An Epic in Art and Film” at the Denver Art Museum. COURTESY PHOTOS

The exhibit was co-curated by Thomas Brent Smith, director of the Petrie Institute at the Denver Art Museum, and Mary Dailey Desmarais, Ph.D., curator of International Modern Art at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, where the exhibit will appear next. “There are many touch points,” Smith said. Many directors referred to painting as they created films,

both for subject matter and blocking the characters in a story. “This is a visual construct of the West … How we understand — or misunderstand — the West comes from movies,” Smith said. This is the first time the DAM has used film to this extent. A visitor has examples of the set, the cast and the artists/directors mingled through the exhibit, with related art and objects interspersed with a number of small spaces featuring film clips. “From Bierstadt to Tarantino, it’s digestible … maybe memories from a long time ago — or yesterday,” Smith commented. Directors John Ford, who covered five decades and more than 150 films (starting with “Iron Horse” in 1924) and Sergio Leone, known for his “Spaghetti Westerns,” bookend the history, now picked up by many contemporary directors—some with tongue in cheek. A section looking at the counterculture features artists Andy Warhol, Ed Ruscha and Kent Monkman, as well as recent film such as “Brokeback Mountain” and “Django Unchained.” We find changes from stories of the Old West to issues of our time, with more sympathetic images of Native Americans. Some recent films take the focus from agriculture to oil. Major shifts in culture included the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights movement. “We go to the Western to work it out,” Smith said. Mary Demarais commented: “Really, at this point the Western itself is an agent of change,” the major artistic export from America — with Abstract Expressionism. That export started with Buffalo Bill Cody and his Wild West Shows, which brought the myth of the American West to Europe, beginning in 1887, and continues today. Note: This show requires some “backing and forthing” to pick up on interrelated themes, if the visitor can manage it. And … don’t miss Kent Monkman’s “Boudoir de Berdashe” (2007), with its brocade tipi, crystal chandelier, buffalo skin rug, red brocade Victorian divan, birch bark “Louis Vuitton” luggage

“Cowboy on Bronco” (1953) by Roy Lichtenstein, shows the continued influence of the western genre in contemporary art.

IF YOU GO “THE WESTERN: AN EPIC IN ART AND MYTH” runs through Sept. 10 at the Denver Art Museum and occurs to us as an ideal outing for visiting family members. Denver is a logical place to hold this exhibit as a crossroads of the Old and New West. The DAM is open daily except Mondays and this show requires special ticketing. For information, see denverartmuseum.org or call 720-865-5000. and Miss Chief ’s high-heeled, beaded moccasins and versions of the silent film, “Shooting Geronimo.” It’s near the end and manages to make fun of a good deal you’ve just absorbed. (It’s from the National Gallery of Canada.) A catalog had not yet arrived from the publisher when we visited, but should be available in the gift shop soon.

The art and possibility of paper Arvada Center’s three summer exhibits explore how paper is used to make art BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Paper is not just a canvas on which art can be created. In its myriad incarnations — tissue, cast, folded and countless others — it can also be used as the medium and form of creative expression. And that’s just what the artists in the Arvada Center’s three summer exhibitions — Stan Meyer: Poetic Presence, Paper on Paper: The Art of Chine-Collé, and Paper.Works — did. “We’ve been wanting to do a paper show here for a while,” said Kristin Bueb, exhibition coordinator at the center. “In the exhibits, we tried to find a mix of representational and abstract works. Some of these artists have shown here before, but for others, this is their first time.” The three exhibits run at the center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., through Aug. 6. Galleries are open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, and 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday. The galleries also remain open until 7:30 p.m. on eve-

nings with theater performances. In the Main Gallery, Paper.Works exhibits the work of 20 artists who work in paper. The works on display range from miniature, extraordinarily detailed creations to huge sculptures and wall installations. “This is the first time I’ve seen this work installed at full size,” said Peter Yumi, whose massive work, “The Mark of the Beast SOS,” hangs in the gallery. “The piece is about the 2016 election, how people reacted to it and acted toward each other on social media.” Yumi’s creation blends classical images from Greek and biblical myths with distortions and images from modern society. “It was a tremendous challenge doing it in the time span I had, but I get teary-eyed seeing it now,” he said. “I hope people who see it ask some questions and take a look at online behavior and how we communicate.” The Theatre Gallery is home to Paper on Paper: The Art of ChineCollé, which features the work of Mark Lunning, Ken Elliott, Jane Braley, Lynn Heitler and Amy Metier — printmakers who utilize the technique of chine-collé in creative ways. Chine-collé is a printmaking process that transfers a print onto a support surface and thinner, more delicate papers that become a part of the printed image, according to information provided by the center.

The end result is a piece that appears both simple and of great depth. In the Upper Gallery, visitors will see the works of Stan Meyer in his exhibit, Poetic Presence. Meyer creates flat-woven pieces out of roofing paper, taking inspiration from the designs of ancient cultures like the Celts and Maori, nature and architecture. “I like the idea of language and calligraphy,” Meyer explained. “I want the pieces to be something positive, and that means different things to different people.” Creating his large-scale works requires a lot of time and attention to detail, especially during the weaving portion of their creation. “For me, it’s all about the language

s part of the 2017 CU Succeed International Relations class at Mountain Range High School in Thornton, lecturer Simon Maghakyan directed his students, high school juniors and members of the DECA program, to draft letters to the editor about local news topics.

Colorado Community Media is pleased to print the rest of those letters in this week’s edition. Others were published in the June 1 papers. We welcome everyone’s opinion. Email letters to editor@coloradocommunitymedia.com with your full name, address and telephone number before 5 p.m. Friday.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Happiness is available to all While reading an article called “Time to Increase Your Happiness Intelligence” (May 5, 2017) I have a few thoughts on this theory about emotional intelligence. First off, I agree with the statement that happiness is available to each and everyone of us. I also agree with the fact that so few make the decision to be happy because of the unwillingness to reprogram one’s self to do so. As a soon-to-be college student, I would like to suggest that a positive psychology course be taught at more colleges across the nation to spread awareness of this ideology. Sienna Tanner Mountain Range High School All ages can be scam targets I have read through your article (“When people get up there in age, others go low to take advantage,” May 10, 2017) about how scammers target seniors, and how it is best to not trust anyone. Though I don’t necessarily disagree with the opinion presented, I disagree with the statement that being a senior automatically makes someone a target. People of all ages can be targets, especially young people just coming out of high school or college. If I’m being honest, it seems that a person with 60 years or more of life experience should be able to tell if something is a scam or not. We should be more preoccupied with the frat boys who are just itching to spend their money. Furthermore, there’s a difference between being assertive and aware, and just being plain paranoid. Seems to me like Mr. Smith is toeing the line. Alexia DiCino Thornton More underground bands, please While I appreciated the article “Spending The Summer With Live Music,” (April 27, 2017) I felt that it lacked diversity. I am a student at Mountain Range High School and I love music and going to concerts. I

loved that the article was focusing on smaller venues with not-as-popular bands, because I think that less-known bands deserve publicity so that their fan base can grow. However, I would have liked the article more if you could have focused on some local bands that are from different genres. In the article, the focus was on mainly three genres — classic rock, jazz and pop. But I am a fan of alternative rock and I wish you could have included some of those bands, as well as the Underground Music Showcase, which has lots of underground bands performing at the end of July. Marilyn Rangel Mountain Range High School Strength training matters As someone who is an active runner, I find rest days to be essential to proper training and recovery (“Going the distance: How to train for a 5K,” May 8, 2017). Strength training is an important part as mentioned, but it is necessary to find a balance that prevents injury and avoids completely degrading your body. It is often recommended for new runners to only run 3-4 times a week in order to prevent injury and taking at least two rest days a week. Less intensive activities such as walking or yoga are smart activities to do on off days to help recover sore muscles. Aubrey Jegier Thornton Entrepreneurship classes needed As a student studying business, I agree that entrepreneurship is something that should be promoted and leads to great opportunities (“Creating their own path,” May 9, 2017). To be an entrepreneur requires knowledge in all fields of business which I feel is not being supported in high schools. Most schools have one or two selective business classes. I believe we need to expand our business classes to not only create more entrepreneurs but satisfy the growing business market. Additionally, since there is an increased interest in entrepreneur-

ship, students need to be fostered and educated in business in high school to be successful later on. Entrepreneurship is growing in Denver and education in this area needs to grow at the same rate. Anna Brady Thornton Block grant program important As an advocate for public works and an in opposition of President Trump, I agree (“Trump’s budget ax poised over block grants, and other thoughts,” April 12, 2017) that he probably can’t succeed in getting all of these budget changes. The domino effect of a dropping of the CDBG program is very real and would affect more than just local government. I also am in agreement that Congress will hopefully stand its ground and continue to provide these assisting funds. I think we should prepare for when Trump does pass partial budget changes, as stated in the article. Each city and county in Colorado should receive these funds because they all face the challenges necessary to be funded. Bradley Gore Mountain Range High School Happiness is not easy I definitely agree that happiness is a big key in personal success (“Time to Increase Your Happiness Intelligence,” May 5, 2017). However, being a student, I can relate to times when it is hard to be happy, especially with grades and exams. In school these days, almost everything you do determines what you will do in the future. Like most, what I want to do in the future will make me happy and if one test prevents that from happening, I’m not going to be happy. Or, if there is a death in the family, or someone loses their job, it can be very hard to be happy because of that traumatic impact. The new question should be about what can people do to see the good things that will come out of a hard or stressful time in order to become happy. I don’t think that many choose to be unhappy, they just need help and encouragement to look for the brighter things. Caitlyn Hoffman Thornton Happiness tactics can aid success As a student, I find emotional intelligence to be incredibly important to an individual’s academic success (“Time to Increase Your Happiness Intelligence,” May 5, 2017). However, the access to gain a better awareness of one’s path to pursue happiness can become a little crowded in the hustle and bustle of high school life. As stated, “75 percent of of success comes from your sense of optimism,” which can be quite the task when buried under hours of homework. I believe that these tactics to improve emotional well-being should be taught and enforced within school environments due to the fact that teenagers

spend up to 10 hours in their high schools every day. Amber Gustason Thornton How can we fix the environment? I support the usage of recyclable materials in order to preserve the environment for future generations (“Earth Day is every day,” April 26). I am personally frustrated by the plastic floating in the ocean that affects marine life, as I have traveled to Brazil and have been exposed to the polluted water firsthand. While I am frustrated by the pollution, there is not much that can be done by a single person to leave a positive impact on the environment. I like the personal anecdotes added on how Andrea Doray is trying to place a positive impact on the environment. However, while I understand that she is talking about the impact people leave on the world from pollution, it is unclear what she is suggesting people to do. She suggests people “Make their voices heard” but does not imply how we can do so. Overall, the article made me want more restrictions put in place for the environment, but means of how to move this decision along need to be provided, not just being told to do something about it. Joana Olsen Thornton Inspectors need good credentials As a person concerned about the county’s safety and overall well-being, I agree that the county should hold oil and gas inspections (“Adams County hires oil and gas inspector,” Feb. 20) but have a concern on who does the inspections. I believe that small companies will be able to get the job done quite well but I feel more secure with having a well-known oil and gas company. The stigma of having not well-known companies checking our county’s oil and gas lines is quite negative. People view unknown companies as “not good enough” or even “incompetent” to other large oil and gas maintenance service companies. To keep stigma at bay, I would recommend Adams County to hire well-known service companies. I believe that the city should always have maintenance oil and gas lines — that way, we can avoid accidents, much like the one in Firestone. We have no room for unnecessary accidents. Ben Chaisin Thornton More officers a good thing It is good to see that the Thornton Police Department is increasing the number of officers on the streets (“First group of Thornton recruits ready for field training,” May 15.). My only real concern is why has it taken this long to increase this number? The Thornton Police DepartSEE LETTERS, P21

ment has 232 commissioned officers that should have spent their shift outside making sure the streets were safe. Knowing that there are going to be more officers looking out for the public is reassuring. I hope that as time goes on, there can be more officers helping around and making sure the streets are safe. Preston Kaplan Thornton Does recycling really help? Allowing fracking operations near residential areas is indeed a very concerning issue, especially after the past incident at a Firestone residence (“Need for oil and gas reform is clear as day,” May 16). At the same time, environmental concerns are rising which are contributing to an interest in recycling. However, I would like to suggest that it should be made known statistically whether these issues actually play a part in the safety and economic stability of the community. I am particularly interested as a potential homeowner near and around Westminster and it would help to bring awareness if perhaps, for the issue of recycling, for similar cases in other cities besides Westminster to be examined so as to develop a concise argument against encouraging widespread recycling. This is primarily due to the surprising fact that it had been stated that

more recycling was not important for an “environmentally responsible community,” a belief I personally disagree upon. Christian Cerezo Northglenn Tragedy inspires gas line safety As a hard-working student who challenges herself in a plethora of tough courses such as honors physics, I believe that the title of this article rings true: Need for oil and gas reform is clear as day (May 16). Erin Martinez, one of the owners of the home in Firestone, Colorado, that recently underwent a tragic explosion, is my physics teacher at Mountain Range High School. Mrs. Martinez has two young children, and her husband died in this devastating incident. She genuinely cares about her students, teaching five classes of general chemistry and my honors physics class. She only has one off hour for her lunch, and as always, she devotes every spare minute she has to helping her students. A forceful stand on this issue is necessary. Christopher is correct in his standings that ongoing oil and gas operations need to take this tragedy into consideration. The abandoned pipeline was only “six feet from the corner of the house.” Therefore, new neighborhoods that are sprouting up throughout Colorado need to give special attention to new residences being built for the new population influx.

Five things to know about Chatfield Storage Reallocation Project Project will allow reservoir to hold more water BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

To meet the Front Range’s growing water demand, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers determined Chatfield Reservoir can accommodate an additional 20,600 acre-feet of water storage, increasing reservoir water levels up to 12 feet. The $130 million project, called the Chatfield Storage Reallocation Project, approved in 2014, will allow water storage for eight municipal water providers and agricultural organizations across the Denver metro area and northeast Colorado. Construction is expected to begin late this year and will take up to two years to complete. “The ability to store in that much space gives Highlands Ranch new surface water supplies,” said Rick McCloud, water resources manager of Centennial Water and Sanitation District in Highlands Ranch, one of eight participants. “We can use that water instead of non-tributary (nonrenewable) groundwater.” Chatfield Reservoir Mitigation Co., formed in 2015 to implement the project, hosted a May 30 open house at ThunderRidge High School in Highlands Ranch for the public to learn

about upcoming changes at Chatfield Reservoir and the surrounding state park, which is a major recreational draw for Front Range residents. The following are five things to know about the reallocation project. History In 1975, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built Chatfield Reservoir at the confluence of the South Platte River and Plum Creek to control flooding following the disastrous 1965 flood. The main purpose of the reservoir, which currently has the ability to store more than 350,000 acre-feet of water, is flood control, but it also provides space for multiuse water and maintains fisheries and wildlife habitat. In response to a growing demand for water — the Statewide Water Supply Initiative, commissioned by the state Legislature, estimates by 2030 Front Range water demand will exceed supply by 22 percent — the corps determined Chatfield Reservoir could accommodate additional storage space. “We are taking advantage of an existing federal structure,” said Colleen Horihan, the corps’ project manager. Who will benefit The project is a partnership among eight water providers and environmental organizations: Colorado

Dozens of people gather at ThunderRidge High School on May 30 to learn about the future of Chatfield Reservoir and the surrounding state park. ALEX DEWIND Water Conservation Board, Centennial Water and Sanitation District, Central Colorado Water Conservancy District, Castle Pines North Metro District, Colorado Parks and Wildlife, Castle Rock, Center of Colorado Water Conservancy District and Castle Pines Metro District. Participants will fund upward of $130 million over the next two years for construction of the project. Each provider will receive a varying amount of the additional 20,600 acre-feet of storage space for surface water in Chatfield Reservoir once the

reallocation is complete. The project allows participants to have access to renewable water supplies at an existing water storage reservoir, according to Chatfield Reservoir Mitigation Co. It also provides renewable water supplies for paying customers in several communities, such as Highlands Ranch, Castle Pines and Castle Rock.

will be modified in phases starting this fall. Most modifications include moving and elevating public areas for increased flood protection and updating existing structures, including picnic structures and bathrooms. A list of detailed designs is available at chatfieldreallocation.org/ recreation. Chatfield Reservoir Mitigation Co. encourages park users to follow the project on Facebook and Twitter and to ask questions and receive updates on closures and construction schedules. “Social media channels are critical platforms,” said Ben Waymire, social media consultant of the project. “These are channels for residents to engage.” Environment On-site and off-site environmental mitigation will be done at Chatfield State Park to address impacts of storing more water in the reservoir, according to Chatfield Reservoir Mitigation Co. Mitigation will include an adaptive tree-management plan for the reservoir to remove dead trees and debris along the shoreline and to

identify a long-term tree-monitoring program. A $424,000 budget is set aside for preconstruction weed control. Off-site mitigation is being explored for bird and Preble’s meadow jumping mouse habitats. Depleted water channels and wetlands will be restored using vegetation and structures. “We are creating more wetland habitat than we are impacting with the project,” said Barbara Biggs, project manager. Timeline The reallocation project will begin in fall of this year and is expected to be complete by 2020, after which the reservoir will be able to store up to 20,600 acre feet of additional water. Construction will be done in 12 phases, starting with the north boat ramp of the reservoir, to minimize impact on Chatfield State Park — the most visited state park in Colorado with more than 1.6 million visitors per year, according to the mitigation company. The final phase will be wetland and bird habitat mitigation of Mary Gulch, an eastern tributary of the South Platte River. “Our goal is to save as much as possible,” said Scott Roush, park manager.

‘Move Over for Cody’ bill signed into law Measure increases penalty for not moving over for emergency vehicles BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A bill named in honor of fallen Colorado State Trooper Cody Donahue, who was struck and killed on Interstate 25 near Castle Rock in 2016, was signed into law by Gov. John Hickenlooper on June 1. The “Move Over for Cody” bill increases the penalty for failing to follow Colorado’s “Move Over” law, which requires drivers to slow down or change lanes when passing a stationary emergency vehicle or towing carrier. It was sponsored by state Rep. Polly Lawrence, R-Roxborough Park, state Sen. Chris

The penalty was increased from a class A traffic offense to a class 1 misdemeanor — with fines ranging from $500 to $5,000 — if a driver causes bodily injury, and to a class 6 felony — which could include prison time and a fine of up to $100,000 — if a driver causes the death of another person. “Drivers, when you see law enforcement or emergency vehicles on the sides of roadways, please slow down, move over and give them room to do their job and get home safely to their family,” Lawrence said in a news release. “We have seen the tragic result of drivers who failed to pay attention, and I hope the stiffer penalties in this new law serve as a potent reminder to move over for our law enforcement and first responders.” Senate Bill 229 will go into effect Sept. 1.

CHURCH FROM PAGE 13

‘Intent was for a church’ The church’s 2016 Annual Financial Report to the Archbishop of Denver identifies Our Lady as Parish 027 and shows it paid an annual parish service fee and assessment computation. Peña, Garcia and other parishioners say they believe the archdiocese is trying to fold Our Lady’s property and assets into Holy Trinity for financial rather than faith-based reasons. Peña said he has engaged the help of attorneys to dispute the archdiocese’s right to take the land. Four property deeds show that the land was donated for the purpose of building a church, said Peña, adding that two of them “state the land is being transferred to the archdiocese on behalf of ” the church. Benito Garcia and his wife Eliosa, parents of eight children, donated the original parcel of land adjacent to their home on which the street cars could be permanently placed. Church member fundraising efforts later purchased two additional parcels of land, Peña said. “The argument we’re making is that the intent was for a church, which includes Mass,” Peña said. “We believe the intention of Mr. Garcia has been broken, and the land should be returned to the donors.” Sandi Garcia, who is not related to Benito Garcia, also points out the church was built through donations.

Our Lady of Visitation was built in 1952 on donated land. In recent years, it drew about 100 parishioners who came from across the Front Range. The last Mass was in April. SCOTT TAYLOR “We ... have never taken a dime from the archdiocese,” Garcia said. “We have been denied authorization to make repairs to the church, even though we have the money to do it … The archdiocese has made no commitment to keep the land available as a church.” Our Lady has $242,000 in reserves, accumulated over the years through fundraisers such as the annual ba-

zaar, which in the past has generated more than $25,000, Garcia said. With the church’s closing, Holy Trinity receives all land and cash reserves, according to Garcia. Efforts to reach Father John Paul Leyba at Holy Trinity for comment were unsuccessful. Parishioners devoted to church As for the shortage of priests being a reason for closing, Peña and Garcia said they have found retired priests who are willing to say Mass each Sunday. Brief negotiations in April between Our Lady and the Archdiocese of Denver included a proposal for one monthly Mass to be celebrated at Our Lady, with members attending their neighborhood churches on the other Sundays, Peña said. But when Peña and council members requested more information, such as who would control the church’s money and whether they could make some repairs, Peña said the archdiocese pulled that option from the table. Bishop Jorge Rodríguez, who assists Archbishop Aquila, wrote about the situation in a May 12 ar-

ticle in the Denver Catholic Register. “Our Lady of Visitation Mission has had a regular attendance of about 100 people each Sunday for the past 10 years,” he wrote. “The majority of those who attend Mass at the mission do not live in the area: coming from many corners of the Archdiocese, the community gathers at the mission because it is there that they reconnect with their roots, with their history and family. But obviously, attending Mass on Sunday is not enough to experience a full parish life …” He goes on to say: “Some people from Our Lady of Visitation have organized events to pressure public opinion, such as press conferences, protests and petition. Personally, I think that fostering division is never good, but I can understand the pain that those brothers and sisters of ours are going through.” Those statements frustrate Peña, Garcia and the other parishioners. “He accuses us of division?” Garcia said. “We purposely attend OLV out of love and devotion to the little church. And out of devotion to our faith. How can he say scattering our congregation is not division?”

The clinic doesn’t replace the typical high school nurses’ office, Skrobela said, but complements it. Students with headaches, sore throats and stomachaches will still go to the school nurse, just down the hall from the clinic. “They can really go to either one,” Skrobela said. “We’ll have multiple medical practitioners right on the site.” The clinic will be open to all of Thornton High’s students and to students at nearby Bollman Technical Education Center. The tech center serves students from all of the Adams 12 Five Star schools. All construction costs are being covered by grants — $250,000 from the City of Thornton, $300,000 from the Colorado Health Foundation and $50,000 from the Caring for Colorado Foundation. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment will pay to operate the center once it’s open, Portnoy said. That means all services are free to the students for the first year, Skrobela said. “We thought that was important, for the first year at least,” she said. “Typically, there is a nominal fee, but we thought it was very important for all students to have the opportunity to access high-quality health care.”

Elephant Rock riders find a wheel fun time

A look in the rear-view reveals exciting moments

Riders in the 30th annual Subaru Elephant Rock Cycling Festival head out on Sunday morning for one of the courses. The cycling event was held in Castle Rock over the June 3-4 weekend and was based at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. PAUL DISALVO

Annual cycling festival draws thousands to Castle Rock BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

On a beautiful Sunday morning, nearly 6,000 people went for a ride during the 30th annual Subaru Elephant Rock Cycling Festival at the Douglas County Fairgrounds in Castle Rock. There were riders of all abilities and ages on different types of bikes at the June 4 event. The ﬁnish-line area sometimes became congested with riders taking pictures. One of the familiar refrains heard was “we did it.” Cyclists chose from among ﬁve courses to ride: the 100mile, 62-mile, 42-mile, 27-mile gravel and 8-mile family routes. Joe Smith, of Lone Tree, rode the 62-mile course in four hours, 31 minutes and 26 seconds, with an average speed of 13.4 mph. “It went really well,” he said. “I cut my time from last year and the reason I did that is I trained more. I rode a 100 miles just last week. “I like to ride. I have a stationary kinetic bike in the basement. I get on that and

turn on the television. I ride for the exercise and health and to get ready for the MS150, which is the last weekend of June.” Sean Hanley, of Denver, put aside his mountain bike for a road cycle and also finished the 62-mile ride in less than five hours. “It was a beautiful ride,” Hanley said. “I’ve been around Castle Rock for 20 years and never had ridden it. I just started road biking. I’ve been mountain biking my whole life.” Challenging was a word that several riders used to describe their ride. Randy Gleason, of Parker, crossed the finish line seven hours after starting the century course. “I’ve been doing this for about 15 years and this is the third year with the new course,” he said. “It’s always fun just to push yourself and challenge yourself a little bit. And it’s a nice warmup for a lot of other rides I’m going to do this summer.” It was also challenging for Manisha Hira, of Commerce City, with her son Shivan in a child trailer during the family ride in which the Castle Rock Police Department escorted cyclists through construction downtown. Susan Gobbo, of Morrison, was accompanied by her young grandson Damien on a bike beside her.

“I’ve done this one other time but this is my grandson’s first time,” she said. “I hope we are ready for this. We are trying to get him excited about biking and see what he can do as a youngster.” Everybody seemed excited to see and ask Everod Samuel, of Centennial, about his bike called the Ordinary, a highwheeler. He rode it over the 62-mile course. One rider saw the bike after Samuel went inside for some lunch and said, “I passed it a couple times on the ride and wanted to get a picture of it but couldn’t.” Samuel spent a lot of time talking to people about his bike and how it can be difficult to get on and off and to stop. “Oh, yeah, a lot of people look at it and I get some interesting comments, too,” Samuel said. “It’s a lot harder to ride than a regular bicycle. It was tough for me to learn to ride it, but you learn very quickly. “I did this last year for the first time. Oh man, that first hill today was tough. If I would of had 10 more yards to go I would not have made it.” Scot Harris, Elephant Rock event director, said the 6,000 riders matched last year’s estimated total. “The weather couldn’t have been better,” he said. “No wind, and all the riders were happy.”

e don’t like to live in the past. But it’s time to take a look back on the 2016-17 school year for area sports teams. • Two highlights were the back-to-back dramatic state playoffs games of the Rock Canyon boys basketball team. Rock Canyon scored four points in the final five seconds to beat Grandview 42-40 in a quarterfinal game. A steal and an ensuing follow tip-in of a missed layup in the final second sent the Jaguars into the semifinals, where the team lost on a free throw with 0.8 second remaining to eventual OVERTIME state champion Eaglecrest. • The Jefferson County 4A regular season basketball finale was remarkable and went two overtimes with D’Evelyn escaping with a 71-69 triumph over Golden. • Just watching Mountain Vista attempt to win the Class 5A title on the final day of the volleyball championships was tiring. Vista played eight sets in its final two pool matches and then the Golden Eagles had to Jim Benton win two, one-set playoffs before advancing to the semifinals. Mountain Vista beat Rock Canyon, 3-2, in the semifinals and led 3-1 in the finals against Fossil Ridge before fatigue took its toll. Vista lost the fifth-set tiebreaker to Fossil Ridge to end as state runner-up after playing 15 sets in one afternoon and evening. • It was hard to ignore the rare Continental League baseball chase. Going into the final day of the regular season, six teams were tied for first place. • Valor Christian captured five state titles. It appeared that last fall might be the season for payback as the Eagles football team started with a 1-3 record. However, after a narrow 10-7 semifinal win over Cherry Creek, the Eagles whipped Pomona 30-14 to win their seventh title in eight years. Ali Kilponen pitched Valor to its third straight 4A softball title and the boys lacrosse team captured its second straight state crown. The baseball team defended its 4A state title and the boys basketball took home the championship hardware after being the runner-up last year. • Cherry Creek won state titles in boys and girls tennis and boys lacrosse to give the Bruins 200 overall state titles in its history. • Pomona’s girls gymnastics and wrestling teams secured piggyback state championships. • Green Mountain was the 4A gymnastics winners. • The Lutheran boys won their fourth consecutive 3A track crown. • Mountain Vista’s girls soccer team didn’t look like champions early in the season but won two shootouts in the playoffs and went on to defeat Arapahoe in the state title match. • Ralston Valley’s girls golf team came from five shots off the pace after the first round to win the 5A state title by nine shots as the three scoring golfers in the final round averaged 76.3. There were plenty of area individual state champions, especially in wrestling and tennis. However, there are too many to mention to give them justice. It is hard, however, not to mention a couple. • Kyle Pearson of Highlands Ranch carded rounds of 66 and 67 to finish 9-under-par to capture the boys state golf championship at Bookcliff County Club in Grand Junction. • And, Jefferson 132-pound senior Kyle Cisneros won his second state crown and wrapped up his wrestling career with an all-time Colorado best of 177 wins. McCaffrey honored Valor Christian football and basketball player Dylan McCaffrey was honored by the Denver Athletic Club as its Colorado Male High School Athlete of the Year during a banquet May 31. Grandview cross country and track athlete Bri Oakley was the Female Athlete of the Year and Denver Broncos Chris Harris Jr. was the Professional Colorado Athlete of the Year.

For too many young people, school days become cruel days

was in sixth grade the first time I heard about bullying. One of my classmates at Acacia Elementary in Fullerton, California, had a brother at the junior high school I would be attending the following year. “Chris” told me about “pantsing.” I had nightmares. However, he never mentioned slaps or punches. Mostly just humorous pranks. I think the humor in pranking is one-sided, and imbecilic. It turns out that nothing happened in junior high school. When I was a freshman in high school, the varsity quarterback knuckled my sternum for no apparent reason. There were others around when he did it. Maybe that was the point: Let others know that you are the BMOC. It never occurred to me to bully a freshman when I became a senior. I left it for the dummies. There are always a few, aren’t there? I read an Associate Press article headlined “Sex crimes increase in schools; bullying persists.” I am not

QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

surprised. “One in five middle and high school students has complained of being bullied at school; and the number of reports of sexual assaults on college campuses has more than tripled over the past decade, according to a federal study. “The picture was bleaker for gay, lesbian, and bisexual

students.” I haven’t done the research, but my guess is that a lot of this starts at home, and is abetted by television and movies. As a college student, I was naïve enough to think that things in America could change and be overcome, someday. But here I sit decades later, and things haven’t improved. There’s a good chance that your overweight daughter will be picked

on. There’s a good chance that your effeminate son will be picked on. “Gabriel Taye, 8, took his own life two days after being kicked and struck by his classmates at his public school in Cincinnati, according to the surveillance footage obtained by attorneys” (The Cincinnati Enquirer). Maybe you have seen the video. It’s heartbreaking. But it’s not a complete anomaly. Google: “bullied, commits suicide.” We pick on each other, and always have. Maybe there is a “survival of the fittest” explanation in there somewhere. And it’s not only boys being boys. It’s girls being girls too. Typically, I don’t have any answers. I have noticed that respect for others has taken a back seat to self-absorption, however. Have you ever observed a customer on the phone at the register? That’s an increment of bullying. The employee is being “bullied” with disrespect. I have seen parents bullying their children in public.

“Behave or I’ll slap you,” is a contrary message. It doesn’t look like all of the harassment and discrimination seminars that schools and other institutions provide have accomplished very much. If little Johnny follows the news and has read about Michigan State doctor Larry Nassar, Bill Cosby, Bill O’Reilly, the Marines photo scandal and others, what might little Johnny think? “And crown thy good with brotherhood,” with occasional exceptions for harassment, homophobia and sexism. And then there is the internet. I’ll leave the role the internet plays in all of this to sociologists. I just know it’s there, and that I am a fingertip away from regret, and an inevitable retraction or apology. I wasn’t there, Gabriel, but I’ll say it anyhow. I’m sorry.

City and County

Chapter 34: COLLECTIVE BARGAINING FOR FIREFIGHTERS 1-34-1: Statement of Policy: (A) It is the intent of the City to protect the integrity of the City Charter and preserve the City’s Home Rule Authority under Colorado law, while maintaining competitive market-based wages and benefits for City employees, providing for Fire Department employee input, protecting management and employee rights, protecting the safety of employees and citizens, maintaining equity to all employees, facilitating employee engagement and opportunities for positive change, building respectful relationships between labor and management, keeping communication open, approaching bargaining in an interest-based manner whenever possible, all in a manner that is financially sustainable and fiscally responsible. Further, it is the public policy of the City to promote the public health, safety and welfare by assuring at all times the orderly and uninterrupted operations and services of City government. To carry out these policies and promote labor relations between the City and the commissioned members of the Fire Department, the City hereby recognizes the rights of qualified members of the Fire Department to join organizations of their own choosing for the purpose of representation in matters affecting employee relations; establishes a framework for collective bargaining and employee input; and provides that all bargaining impasses be submitted to non-binding arbitration and, if necessary, to a vote of the registered electors of the City. 1-34-2: Definitions: The following words, terms, and phrases, when used in this Chapter, shall have the following meaning: “American Arbitration Association” shall mean the American Arbitration Association or its successor organization. “Bargaining unit” shall mean all full-time commissioned members of the Westminster Fire Department up to and including the rank of Captain. “Benefits” shall mean provision of: general leave, personal leave, leave for holidays, leave for illnesses, bereavement leave, pregnancy leave, birth of a child/adoption leave, family leave, injury leave (not to include workers’ compensation), leave for jury duty/witness service, union leave, compensatory time, tuition reimbursement, uniform allowances, military leave, and levels of contribution to health insurance plans selected by the City. “Certified employee organization” shall mean an organization or union elected by the bargaining unit and certified by the City pursuant to the provisions of this Chapter. “Collective bargaining” shall mean to meet at reasonable times to confer in good faith on subjects for collective bargaining and to reduce agreements on such subjects for collective bargaining to a written contract. “Collective bargaining agreement” shall mean any and all terms on subjects for collective bargaining: to which the corporate authorities and the certified employee organization have voluntarily agreed; accepted by the corporate authorities and the employee organization from the recommendations of an advisory fact-finder; or selected by the electorate pursuant to Section 134-10, W.M.C. “Corporate authorities” shall mean the City Manager, the City Council, or their officially designated representatives. “Final offer” shall mean the last written offer made by a party no less than seven (7) days prior to the commencement of the non-binding arbitration hearing. “Good faith” shall mean an honest and sincere attempt to reach a mutually acceptable resolution of all issues in dispute through the bargaining process; however, the obligation to bargain in good faith does not compel a party to agree to a proposal or require the making of a concession. “Impasse or bargaining impasse” shall mean that the City and certified employee organization have been unable to reach agreement and have become deadlocked on a specific subject for collective bargaining. “Items related to personal safety” shall mean allowances for the purchase of non-issued personal safety equipment, the establishment and composition of a safety committee and the establishment and composition of (a) committee(s) to meet and confer on specifications for the purchase of fire and ambulance apparatus, Department tools and equipment and personal protective equipment. “Non-binding arbitration” shall mean the use of a third-party neutral, an advisory fact-finder, who makes a determination on an issue-by-issue basis on any subjects for collective bargaining upon which the City and certified employee organization have reached a bargaining impasse. Such determination is non-binding upon the parties, and no enforceable arbitration award is issued. “Principals” shall mean: (i) with respect to the corporate authorities, the City Council; and (ii) with respect to the certified employee organization, its members who are not on the team it designates to engage in collective bargaining. “Subjects for collective bargaining” shall mean wages; benefits; items related to personal safety; representation in the disciplinary process, but not the decision to discipline; promotional procedure, but not the content/criteria for promotions nor the decision to promote; grievance procedures; dues deduction; and the payment of fair share fees. Subjects for collective bargaining shall not include those public and management rights set forth in Section 1-34-3, W.M.C. or matters that would conflict with federal or state constitutional, statutory, municipal ordinance, or Charter provisions. Upon mutual agreement, nothing prohibits the parties from negotiating over other matters, as long as such matters are not public and management rights as defined in Section 1-34-3. Such other matters shall not be subject to non-binding arbitration or submission to the electors of the City for final resolution unless both parties agree to submit the matter. “Wages” shall mean the pay plan structure for the annual salary (base wage) of each position title within the bargaining unit and shall also in-

agreement, nothing prohibits the parties from negotiating over other matters, as long as such matters are not public and management rights as defined in Section 1-34-3. Such other matters shall not be subject to non-binding arbitration or submission to the electors of the City for final resolution unless both parties agree to submit the matter. “Wages” shall mean the pay plan structure for the annual salary (base wage) of each position title within the bargaining unit and shall also include overtime, compensatory time, acting/provisional pay, call back pay, response pay and any other type of ancillary pay recognized by the City.

City and County

1-34-3: Public and Management Rights: (A) The following are the inherent and exclusive rights of the City, which shall not be the subjects of collective bargaining: (1) To direct and schedule the work of its employees, including but not limited to determining schedules, staffing, shifts, hours and the scheduling of leave; (2) To determine training needs, methods of training, and employees to be trained; (3) To determine or consolidate operations, offices, and work sites, including, but not limited to permanently or temporarily moving operations in whole or in part to other locations; (4) To hire, promote, demote, classify, evaluate, and retain employees in positions within the City; however, the certified employee organization may negotiate promotional procedure, but not the content/criteria for promotions nor the decision to promote; (5) To demote, suspend, discharge, or otherwise discipline employees; however, representation in the disciplinary process shall be a subject of collective bargaining; (6) To make, alter and enforce rules, regulations, orders and policies, and from time to time, to change such rules, regulations, orders and policies; (7) To establish, select, administer, alter, amend and control insurance, pension, and retirement plans for employees; (8) To lay-off employees because of lack of work, lack of funds, or for other legitimate reasons determined by the corporate authorities and to determine the method and criteria for recall; (9) To determine and implement the methods, equipment, facilities and other means and personnel by which municipal operations are to be conducted, and to take steps it deems necessary to maintain the efficiency and safety of said operations and of the personnel engaged therein; and (10) To determine its budget, organization, and the merits, necessity, and level of any activity or service provided by the City.

1-34-4: Strikes, Work Stoppages, Slowdowns, and Mass Absenteeism Prohibited: (A) In order for the City to discharge its Charter obligations to provide fire protection functions and protect the health, welfare, and safety of its citizens, it is essential that City services continue at all times without disruption. Acceptance of public employment carries with it an obligation and responsibility to act affirmatively at all times to ensure the continuation and promotion of the public’s health, safety, and welfare. Accordingly, all employees and employee organizations are hereby prohibited from engaging in strikes, work stoppages, slowdowns, concerted disruptions or mass absenteeism. Any person who violates this prohibition shall be subject to any of the following without limitation: reprimand; suspension or discharge; and, in the case of violation of this prohibition by the certified employee organization: withdrawal of recognition, cancellation of any collective bargaining agreement with said organization, injunctive relief, suit for damages, and any other reasonable penalty or remedy, including attorneys’ fees and costs in any such suit.

1-34-5: Employee Rights: (A) Members of the bargaining unit shall have the right to form, join, and participate in the activities of employee organizations of their choosing for the purpose of representation for collective bargaining, and they shall also have the right to refuse to join or participate in any activities of employee organizations and shall have the right to represent themselves individually and have individual grievances adjusted without resort to employee organizations; provided, however, that any resolution reached as a result of such individual representation or grievance may not be contrary to the terms of any collective bargaining agreement actually in effect and applicable to such bargaining unit members. (B) Neither the City, nor any member of the bargaining unit, nor any employee organization, nor any certified employee organization, shall interfere with, intimidate, restrain, coerce, or discriminate against any employee because of the exercise of the foregoing rights.

1-34-6: Selection, Recognition and Decertification of Certified Employee Organization: (A) The employee organization selected in a secret ballot vote by the majority of the bargaining unit members shall be the certified employee organization recognized by the City as the sole and exclusive agent for all members of the bargaining unit for purposes of collective bargaining unless and until such certified employee organization is decertified by a majority vote of the members of the bargaining unit as set forth herein. Only the certified employee organization shall be entitled to engage in collective bargaining for the bargaining unit. (B) Questions concerning the selection or decertification of a certified employee organization may be raised by a petition signed by at least thirty percent (30%) of the members of the bargaining unit. Such a petition may be submitted at any time to the corporate authorities provided that in the event there is then a certified employee organization, no petition may be filed within twelve (12) months of the certified employee organization’s certification by the American Arbitration Association; and provided further that no petition may be filed during the term of an existing collective bargaining agreement, except during the period from October 1 to October 31 before the final year of such agreement. (C) When a petition is filed concerning the selection or decertification of a certified employee organization, the corporate authorities shall determine whether it contains the requisite num-

(C) When a petition is filed concerning the selection or decertification of a certified employee organization, the corporate authorities shall determine whether it contains the requisite number of signatures and whether such signatures are authentic and notify the American Arbitration Association of its conclusion. If the petition has the requisite number of authenticated signatures, the American Arbitration Association shall determine the question of selection or decertification of any certified employee organization by taking a secret ballot of members of the bargaining unit and certifying in writing the results thereof to the corporate authorities and the employee organization(s) involved. The secret ballot election shall be conducted not less than fifteen (15) calendar days or more than thirty (30) calendar days from the date the corporate authorities notify the American Arbitration Association that the petition contains the requisite number of authenticated signatures. The American Arbitration Association shall certify the results of the abovedescribed election within three (3) business days of the close of the polls. The cost of running the election shall be borne equally by each employee organization on the ballot.

more than three (3) years. (B) Except as otherwise provided in this Chapter, the collective bargaining agreement shall not be binding upon the parties, either in whole or in part, until and unless the members of the certified employee organization have ratified said agreement by a majority vote in a secret ballot, and until and unless the City Council shall act by majority vote to formally approve said agreement.

Get Involved!

Patti Lowell, City Clerk

Without public notices, the government wouldn’t have to say anything else.

Notices are meant to be noticed. Read your public notices and get involved!

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

- Aldous Huxley

Every day, the government makes decisions that can affect your life. Whether they are decisions on zoning, taxes, new businesses or myriad other issues, governments play a big role in your life.

Governments have relied on newspapers like this one to publish public notices since the birth of the nation. Local newspapers remain the most trusted source of public notice information. This newspaper publishes the information you need to stay involved in your community.

Notices are meant to be noticed. Read your public notices and get involved! NTS WW * 8
