New center tackles health care cybersecurity By Helen Robinson
C
olorado Springs’ fledgling Center for Health Information Cybersecurity will start tackling some of the field’s biggest hurdles in 2017, with the aim of becoming the nation’s key center for health information security expertise. “The city as a whole is making an effort towards becoming more knowledgeable about security risks and how to meld [security] into the workflow in a way that maintains patient safety and allows the health care workers to do their jobs,” said Lynne VanArsdale, innovation program manager for the
Colorado Regional Health Information Organization. “That effort is spearheaded by the establishment of the Center for Health Information Cybersecurity in partnership with the National Cybersecurity Center.” Established a year ago, CHIC has a governing board of 11 members, including VanArsdale, NCC CEO Ed Rios and representatives from clinical practice, military and the software industry. It is chaired by James Dodd, CEO of Loop Communications. Governance and operations are still in formation. CHIC was chartered by COShealth, a partnership of local
health care and workforce organizations. VanArsdale said CHIC is seeking project-based funding on a town hall session in June, a Voice of the Customer requirements-gathering study this summer, and a tabletop event on Sept. 27. The NCC currently provides space and services; a location for CHIC will be decided later. CHIC aims to tap into Colorado Springs’ “wealth of security experts” to create the center for health information cybersecurity, VanArsdale said. “We are advisers; we provide information and education; we go out and get requirements from the health care arena,” she said. “We’re that conduit
between the security world and the health care world.” CHIC will help cybersecurity experts collaborate with the health care industry to build affordable, painless information security measures and create incentives for workers to follow policies. Cybersecurity is a relatively new consideration in medicine, and health care professionals “really see risk in modifying their workflow to use electronic information and [to make] sure that information stays secure and private,” VanArsdale said. “It’s not that the health care workers See Cyber page 23

ollowing 30 years of false starts and hopeful speculation, the United States Olympic Museum and Hall of Fame has a shovel-ready site and enough funding to start, finish, equip, open and operate the long-awaited facility. But what impact will the museum have on surrounding businesses? “I believe that it will be a catalytic project,” said Tom Binnings, a principal at Summit Economics. “The magnitude of the project, its location a few blocks from the U.S. Olympic Committee building — we’re already feeling economic impacts along the [Interstate]-25 corridor. If you look at the limited service hotel [Hilton Garden Inn] under construction at Kiowa [Street] and Cascade [Avenue], at the large apartment building under construction [at Wahsatch and Colorado avenues], and even at the Great Wolf [Lodge] — those projects were likely influenced by the museum.”
Binnings also noted that the museum should stimulate off-season tourism and catalyze nearby development. “We have robust visitor numbers, about 5.2 million annually, but we need things to do when it’s cold,” he said. “ Small conferences are always looking for offsite locations, where they can have a little party, serve some drinks and appetizers and tour the museum. There’s potential for a new full-service hotel in southwest downtown.”
OVER THE THRESHOLD Downtown hotelier and restaurateur Perry Sanders also sees the potential for positive impact. “I think it’s public knowledge that John Goede and I have committed $100,000 to help fund the [Olympic Museum], although we have no vested interest it,” said Sanders, who owns the downtown Mining Exchange Hotel and, in partnership with Goede, The Antlers as well. “We helped fund the museum because Dick Celeste has worked tirelessly

to get the funds raised, and we applaud his vision and wanted to supplement his efforts.” The museum will be one of those rare projects that could change the face of the city, Binnings said. “In the world of economic development, things happen incrementally,” said Binnings. “But every once in a while you cross a big threshold that creates momentum, and helps take a city to a new level. Big projects like the museum, or a stadium or — am I allowed to say convention center? — can take you over that threshold.” Sanders agrees that a convention center should be on the city’s wish list. “A convention center must be the next project undertaken, or guaranteed, the city will bog down,” Sanders said. “Hotels and restaurants ... will languish, and city sales tax receipts will decline. This is the next and most obvious step to help Colorado Springs move to the next level.” See Museum page 24

IN OUR OPINION
Merritt’s exit leaves leadership void The issue: Andy Merritt plans to take on another position — leaving aerospace and defense companies without an advocate. What we think: The Chamber & EDC faces a difficult search for a worthy replacement to maintain relationships with both the defense contractors and military installations. Tell us what you think: Send us an email at editorial@csbj.com.
A
ndy Merritt’s decision to become Cory Gardner’s state director might be good news for the U.S. senator, but it’s sad news for economic development in Colorado Springs. In his four-year tenure with the Colorado Springs Chamber & EDC (previously known as the Regional Business Alliance), Merritt has been a steady fixture in the organization as it navigated a controversial merger, took on a new name with a combined mission and then changed the name again. He’s provided a voice for the city’s defense corporations and for its military bases, and worked tirelessly to bring both groups to the table to discuss joint concerns. He’s ably built and managed partnerships that the region relied on through uncertain economic times and occasionally negotiated contentious relationships between military entities and the greater community. He’s been a force in economic development for aerospace and defense, and an active participant in the city’s efforts to increase its profile on the national stage. He also has supported the region’s burgeoning cybersecurity industry efforts. In short, he proved to be an asset not only for the Chamber & EDC, but the city as a whole. His departure leaves an enormous gap in the group’s leadership, and his eventual replacement will have big shoes to fill.
It’s not the first departure of a major leader in the Chamber & EDC in the past six months. Al Wenstrand, former chief business development officer, left in December for a position at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Hannah Parsons has ably filled his position. It’s unclear who will replace Merritt. His experience as a U.S. Military Academy graduate and officer, as district director for Rep. Mike Coffman, state director for former Sen. Wayne Allard and field representative for former Sen. Hank Brown, will be hard to match. He has contacts in local, state and federal governments and at the Pentagon, countless relationships with defense corporations, aerospace companies and installation civilian leaders. The chief defense industry officer is no small role here. With five military bases — Fort Carson, Peterson and Schriever Air Force bases, Cheyenne Mountain Air Station and the U.S. Air Force Academy — the role of aerospace and defense companies in the regional economy cannot be overstated. Replacing Merritt quickly is vital — and replacing him with someone the defense industry can trust is even more important. Still, Merritt’s role as state director on Gardner’s team could elevate the Springs’ role in both state and federal government policy. He’s keenly aware of the city’s efforts to maintain its military installations, grow its defense bases and leverage their combined economic impact. He knows plenty about the Air Force Academy’s CyberWorx programs and the fledgling National Cybersecurity Center in Colorado Springs. Perhaps Merritt can increase awareness of those efforts at the state and federal levels, even as he continues to work hard on behalf of the entire state. That could be the silver lining the Chamber & EDC needs. While Merritt goes on to promote the state as part of Gardner’s team, let’s hope the Chamber & EDC can act quickly to fill the vacancy. And as a retooled leadership team finds its footing, the organization will need the support of the entire business community. CSBJ

Is your server Olympic Museum a beacon down again? for downtown development? OPINION: HAZLEHURST
I
n July 2013 the city of Colorado Springs submitted the official “City for Champions” proposal to the Colorado Economic Development Commission, requesting state tax increment financing for four HAZLEHURST ambitious projects. Two were to be located in the city’s long-derelict southwest downtown: the Downtown Stadium and Events Center and the U.S. Olympic Museum and Hall of Fame. Four years later, the stadium/events center has been abandoned, while the Olympic Museum will soon break ground. The original funding request was supported by highly optimistic financial projections and accompanied by detailed renderings of a rebuilt southwest downtown. In this halcyon imagined future, cracked sidewalks, potholed streets and vacant, tin-roofed warehouses were magically swept away and replaced by a gleaming new city. A super-sized illustration shows fireworks exploding in the night sky over the ballpark, illuminating the adjacent Olympic Museum. Twenty new buildings adorn the new “sports district,” home to thousands of residents and scores of businesses. Hotels, restaurants, bars, retail shops of all kinds — what a feast for the eye, what an economic boon for the city. As the museum draws ever closer to reality, project boosters still radiate optimism. The gleaming new city is even shinier than before, the buildings taller, the streets pedestrian- and bike-friendly. The Urban Renewal Authority has signed paperwork needed for infrastructure upgrades, but the sometimes-tightfisted lenders must leap aboard to support multistory residential/office/hotel towers. In the best of possible worlds, the Olympic Museum will by itself trigger hundreds of millions in new investment, and the hopeful projections of 2013 will seem overly modest. Austin, Denver, Omaha — move over. Here comes the Southwest Downtown Express. That’s an attractive scenario, just as winning the lottery is an attractive scenario. Obstacles? There are a few. With the ballpark out of the picture, the museum will be the area’s only anchor. Until other development is launched, the museum will stand in splendid isolation, perched at the
John
western terminus of Vermijo Avenue, far from any downtown shops, bars or restaurants. In anything but perfect weather, visitors to the museum might not venture elsewhere. And how many visitors can the museum expect? Project backers forecast a stabilized level of 350,000 annually, 82 percent from out-of-state. Those backers also expected that both the museum and the stadium/events center would open in 2016, and that the stadium/events center would attract 672,000 visitors annually, 92 percent in-state. Those numbers may be optimistic. Similar sports-oriented facilities such as the National Football Hall of Fame, the Baseball Hall of Fame and the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame draw around 200,000-250,000 annual visitors. Nonsports venues, such as the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (500,000 annual visitors) in Cleveland and the International Spy Museum (600,000) in Washington, D.C., seem to appeal to a wider public. Olympic Museum backers argue that the three sports halls are located in small cities without other visitor attractions, while the other two benefit by being in Cleveland and Washington. They also point out that the Olympic movement features dozens of different sports and hundreds of great athletes, past and present. Those are good points, and visitor numbers should spike if the 2024 Summer Olympics are awarded to Los Angeles. Still, as one skeptical friend said the other day, “If the Olympic Museum is such a great idea, why didn’t they build one 30 years ago?” Of course, Dick Celeste was busy building the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 30 years ago as governor of Ohio, so we had to wait our turn. In any case, the museum will certainly be built, and will open debt-free and with an endowment that will allow it to weather any unforeseen visitor shortfalls. And there’s always branding. Late last year, the NFL Hall of Fame made a $500 million, 20-year naming rights deal with Johnson Controls, vaulting it into the top ranks of such agreements. Dallas Cowboys owner/president Jerry Jones, no stranger to such deals, chaired the Hall of Fame Committee. The Tesla Olympic Museum? The Olympic Museum, presented by Facebook? One way or another, the museum will survive. Let’s hope that it becomes the centerpiece of a glittering new southwest downtown, not a forlorn architectural treasure whose infrequent visitors pause only to count the cars on the coal trains that chug slowly by. CSBJ
Unless other development is launched almost immediately, the museum will stand in splendid isolation...

ndy Merritt, the chief defense industry officer for the Colorado Springs Chamber of Commerce & EDC, is leaving his position at the organization to become state director for Sen. Cory Gardner, R-Colorado. Merritt’s first day in his new position — replacing Chuck Poplstein — will be April 26, according to a news release issued Monday by Gardner’s office. Poplstein has accepted a regional position with The Boeing Co. “I’m thankful for Chuck Poplstein’s years of service to Colorado as my State Director and am thrilled Andy Merritt has agreed to take his place,” Gardner said in the release. “Andy’s experience serving Coloradans will be a tremendous asset. I’m confident that he will be a tireless advocate for the people of Colorado, and I am looking forward to working with him to best serve my constituents.” Merritt, 50, has been chief defense industry officer for the Chamber & EDC (formerly the Colorado Springs Regional Business Alliance) since January 2013, according to his resumé. Prior to that, he served as district di-
rector for U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman (2009-2013, state director for U.S. Sen. Wayne Allard (1997-2008) and as a field representative for U.S. Sen. Hank MERRITT Brown (1995-1996). “Andy brought a unique skill set, combining military service and time on congressional staff,” said Dirk Draper, president and CEO of the Chamber & EDC. “He’s a great guy, a great team builder and a friend.” While working for the Chamber & EDC, Merritt also was in charge of the organization’s Defense Development Division. A native of Claverack, N.Y., he is also a U.S. Military Academy graduate (1989), and after West Point he served as a U.S. Army officer in South Korea and at Fort Carson. Draper said that, while he regrets Merritt’s departure, the Chamber & EDC has already started the process of searching for his replacement. A job listing is soon to follow, Draper said. “All of us at the Chamber & EDC, as well as our many volunteers, will miss Andy,” Draper said. “We wish him well with Sen. Gardner’s team.” CSBJ n

Investing in arts equals investing in development
W
hen Linda Weise moved the Colorado Springs Conservatory into its location in southwest downtown, she told then-Mayor Steve Bach: “Don’t leave me alone out here; make sure there are other businesses.” Five years later, Weise’s Conservatory — a nonprofit dedicated to providing performing arts S W E E T training to area schoolchildren — is still alone on the edge of downtown. But not for too much longer. Weise hopes the incipient U.S. Olympic Museum and Hall of Fame will bring economic development, restaurants and businesses to aid her efforts in creating a culturally vibrant, economically sound area on the southwest side of downtown. “I’m really looking forward to that,” she says. “And I’m hoping that the museum brings even more arts groups to downtown.” She points to the Conservatory not only as a place where young students learn something about the benefits of the arts, discipline, time management and a host of other skills, but also as an economic driver. “We bring kids in from a 100-mile radius,” she said. “And 25 percent of our faculty are alumni — they came back from places like Boston and Baltimore and New York City to be here. The city gets such a bad reputation about how it can’t retain Millennials — but we’re doing it here; they're doing it at Cottonwood and at the Fine Arts Center.” The arts are an important driver for the business community, Weise says, and she’s grateful to the business owners who “get it.” “Mike Jorgensen of Red Noland Cadillac, he gets it,” she said. “And there are many, many other people who
Amy G.
get it — people like Kevin O’Neil of Catalyst Campus. We couldn’t do what we do without their support. We’re not just creating more musicians or more actors. We’re giving kids a sense of accomplishment, and that is important throughout their lives.” Andy Vick, executive director of the Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region, says arts investments equal economic development opportunities. A 2012 survey sponsored by COPPeR shows that the arts have a $72 million impact on Colorado Springs and help generate 2,168 jobs. That’s old information, Vick said. “We conducted a new survey at the end of 2016, and we’ll announce those results in July,” he said. “I am anticipating it to be a much bigger number than the 2012 numbers.” Vick says they’ll use the 2017 figures to market arts and the Pikes Peak region for the next five years — and get the attention of local businesses whose support is needed to continue to create a blossoming arts community. — Linda That community is vital to attracting and retaining young professionals, to crafting a regional reputation as a place where people want to live, work and play. Colorado Springs doesn’t quite have that reputation — yet. It will take coaxing residents from enclaves in Briargate and near Powers Boulevard into downtown Colorado Springs, Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs to visit the galleries, attend the plays and listen to live music. The Olympic Museum could help there — as could more activities for families. It can be a hard sell — competing with social media, movie theaters and shopping. But for those parents who send their kids to the Conservatory and the school districts that bus students from 100 miles away, they get a rich, engaging experience that other
families miss by refusing to venture outside their neighborhoods. “I’ve always wanted a school downtown, ever since I opened the school,” Weise said. “We love it here.”
CHANGING THE DISCUSSION How does the city rise above negative conversation to elevate dialogue? The arts can do that. People come together to see an art show, watch a play, for a Jazz Night at the Conservatory. It’s a way to create community, and from there, to develop a productive, positive dialogue about the kind of city we all want. The arts community can help solve the perception issues. As the U.S. Olympic Museum breaks ground and eventually brings additional visitors to Colorado Springs, they’ll talk about the vibrant downtown, the exciting arts and culture, the restaurants and the natural beauty. Weise There’s work to be done to elevate and support arts and culture, and to recognize the business leaders who understand the importance of engaging young people in the arts at an early age. “There are those business leaders who know what we’re doing here is important for kids,” Weise said. “They get what we’re doing: We’re providing a positive impact for the rest of their lives.” And from a lonely corner in southwest downtown, Weise is making a business impact as well. She’s providing jobs, growth and economic activity. It’s why COPPeR and Vick advocate and educate on behalf of the city’s arts community. And it’s time the rest of us supported those efforts. CSBJ

ONE-ON-ONE
Aspenson makes sure clients are accounted for By Bryan Grossman
I
n December, Midwest accounting firms BKD and Kiesling Associates quietly completed a merger, creating an organization that has more than 150 years’ combined industry experience. David Aspenson was partner in charge of Kiesling’s Colorado Springs office, and is now a partner at BKD. Aspenson, who has been an accountant for more than 30 years, primarily within the rural telecom and utilities industries, spoke with the Business Journal about the benefits of joining forces, dealing with regulations and helping the little guys compete. Where are you from? I’m from Iowa. I grew up in a town called Mason City in the north-central part of the state.
How did you get here? I went to Luther College, a small Lutheran, Norwegian liberal arts college. They had an internship program, and I did an internship with Kiesling Associates. Kiesling was started in Madison, Wisc., in 1952 and they had offices in places like Springfield, Ill., and Des Moines and one in Colorado Springs. … Kiesling has a niche in telecommunications and regulated utilities. It was primarily operating in the Midwest, but a partner in Illinois wanted a change of pace and came to Colorado because of industry connections out here. Colorado Springs was picked over Denver because it had a cottage industry of consultants to small, rural telephone companies and they introduced us to clients. It was a natural move west. After about four years in Iowa, I was able to transfer here. What do you do at the firm? I became partner in charge at Kiesling in 1998, and I’m a partner now with BKD. These transitions can take some time, maybe two years to get fully integrated, especially since we merged in December and our busy season starts in January. My job is to maintain client relations and take care of the people who came over in the merger — making sure their career paths are defined and that they have the skills they need to do their job. The job hasn’t really changed, but one goal is to grow our presence in the community. I’ll be a part of that. What can you tell us about the merger? The merger was effective Dec. 4. We’re excited about it. The BKD folks have been terrific about welcoming us. Kiesling was looking for a better playbook to take our firm to the next level. By merging up we have access to some big-firm resources and training — better opportunities so that some of our people who work in telecom can work in other industries. From a quality-control standpoint we have an audit and accounting director who reviews work to be sure we meet
all the standards. It’s nice to have that capability on staff. Another reason for the merger is that Kiesling had about 250 phone companies and maybe 10 to 12 electric companies as clients. BKD does 300 electric companies and is getting into broadband. Resources and training were two of our biggest drivers and BKD was a good fit. It has a Midwest history like we did and originated in Springfield, Mo. They’ve been there around 90 years. How big was Kiesling before the merger? There were 11 of us in Colorado Springs, and company-wide, we were about 85 people. It was pretty small and spread out. In the Springs, BKD went to about 55 employees. Do you have local clients? [Kiesling] never had any clients in Colorado Springs, and that was by design. We’ve been here since 1978, but it’s always been about rural companies. … Our clients are like CenturyLink, but on a much, much smaller scale — Eastern Colorado, the Western Slope and nine other states — about 30 company-wide. Now that we’re with BKD, we’re looking to go nationwide. Is telecommunications accounting unique? It is. Lots of the rules are dictated by the Federal Communications Commission. So certain procedures differ from regular GAAP [generally accepted accounting principles] accounting. We are hired because we have expertise in that niche and we also consult on those sorts of things. We advise clients on policy and business planning. We’re busy not just on the auditing and tax side but on the consulting side and advising about FCC policy. What’s the mood surrounding telecommunications and utilities under President Trump’s administration? There’s some optimism in these rural areas [regarding] Trump. That was a lot of his base, and building infrastructure in rural areas is one way to continue to stimulate the economy. … When Trump talks about roads and bridges falling apart, telecommunications and utilities are trying to get lumped in with that potential funding. We’re trying to say, ‘We’re infrastructure too — broadband and fiber optic networks. If you’re going to spend more, keep us in mind.’ It’s early, but the FCC commissioners said if there is any more spending in telecommunications, the vehicle should be through the Universal Service Funding program because it’s already in place. Will broadband become a public utility? I think so. And I think it will help our business. If it becomes regulated, there are usually more rules, and that means more accounting to follow those rules. The FCC is talking about how to regulate all this. In the old days it was a phone, but now it’s the internet. CSBJ

Local hair stylist adds color downtown with NYC partnership By Hannah Caproon

rittany Jones has been on top of the Colorado Springs hair salon world for years. Now managing partner and a stylist at Fox & Jane, Jones opened B&Co. Hair and Design in 2014, taking bronze in the Colorado Springs Independent’s (also part of Colorado Publishing House) Best Hair Stylists category and the bronze award behind two corporate competitors in The Gazette’s Best of Hair Salons in 2016. The local stylist has been featured in American Salon, Behind the Chair and Beauty Insider. “I had opened B&Co. on my own, and the day the doors opened we had $7 to our name,” said Jones. “I felt there was a niche demand to meet in Colorado Springs. We opened seven weeks after I decided that opening a salon is what I wanted to do.” Since embracing her roots and partnering with her longtime friend, Lorean Cairns, Jones has achieved even loftier goals. In 2007, the duo worked together at Lemon Head Hair Salon in Durango, and then forged separate paths for a few years. Ultimately Cairns and Jones joined forces as business partners in Fox & Jane. In 2016, Jones completely remodeled B&Co. (in the same location Fox & Jane occupies now) with a $10,000 loan, and partnered with Cairns to open a Colorado Springs location of B&Co. Cairns originally started the now-high-profile salon as a three-chair studio on the Lower East Side of New York City in 2011. “We knew we had the same salon values, and the same business values, so it was a natural fit,” Jones said. “Fox & Jane is a movement, not just a salon. We’re continuing to see a great response in Colorado
Springs, and I think we’re changing the hair industry in Colorado.” Offering high-end hair services, with balayage, or gradiated, hair coloring and fashion-forward cuts and stylings as their most popular options, some of Fox & Jane’s stylists are booked up to eight weeks in advance. While many studios have independent contract stylists, or rentable booths, Fox & Jane prides itself on its full-time team environment. Locally, Fox & Jane employs 10 commission-based stylists bringing their talents from other states such as Tennessee, New York and South Carolina. “We’re truly a family,” Jones said. “We work together to make a positive, collaborative and supportive environment. That’s what I had been missing from Lemon Head.” As welcoming as it sounds, it’s no cakewalk to get in the door as a stylist. Prospective employees must have three to five years’ styling experience to get hired. Those who make the initial cut spend a day alongside the team showcasing their talents. Fox & Jane also hosts an annual hairstyle photo competition for its employees, sending three winners to international destinations as thanks for their hard work and to keep the spirit of fun alive, said Jones. Last year it was London; this year it’s Rome. Most exciting for Jones is the priority that education takes in the company. Stylists from New York City recently visited the Colorado Springs location to train and collaborate with Jones’ team. “The education center in New York City is open to any stylist, not just Fox & Jane stylists,” she said. “Training typically covers the latest hair salon trends, and it really encourages our team to push themselves, learn and support others in their career development.”
We’re truly a family. We work together to make a positive, collaborative and supportive environment.
ROOTING DOWN Growth is not a distant vision for Fox & Jane. It began in 2014 with Jones’ selection of the south downtown area. “This area has definitely taken off since we first started. We get a lot of foot traffic, and all the development is a big part of that,” she said. “I had some really great advice, which was to find the happening area [and] move around the corner, and that’s exactly what happened,” Jones said. The company is growing rapidly as well, she said. Fox & Jane currently has five New York City locations, one in Colorado Springs, and one in San Diego. “We’re planning to open four new locations in Colorado, targeting the LoHi neighborhood of Denver first. Then other spots around Denver and Boulder,” Jones said. Jones will be partner in all of the Colorado locations, floating between them and overseeing operations. Fox & Jane is also planning further expansion in California.
CALLED TO STYLE “We aim to make the salon experience really approachable, and part of that is the way our scheduling is handled,” she said, pointing out that the phone had not rung in an hour. All appointment calls go through their NYC call center, which is dedicated exclusively to Fox & Jane services. “Having appointments scheduled through the call center really allows us to focus on our clients,” she said, “and create a friendly, welcoming and individual experience while they’re here with us. It also means that scheduling is not rushed, since they’re only managing appointments.” Clients can still reach the salon if necessary. Online booking is also an option. CSBJ n

Money, mission: Balancing act for startups By Cameron Moix
F
ewer than 5 percent of startups will make it to their second year of business, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. For many Americans, such figures are daunting — but for some entrepreneurs, the risk makes the reward even sweeter. One such entrepreneur is Vance Brown, the co-founder and board chair of Colorado Springsbased tech firm Cherwell Software. The IT services management company has taken in $75 million in venture capital and now employs nearly 500 people at its three offices in Colorado and England, making it the region’s most successful tech firm. But that hasn’t always been the case.
HUMBLE BEGINNINGS Brown met his business partners, Arlen Feldman and Timothy Pfeifer, when the three worked together for FrontRange Solutions, which in the ’90s was one of the region’s most successful tech businesses and one of the first in the country to specialize in what was then known as “help desk” software. “I think Colorado Springs was the birthplace of the help desk industry,” Brown said. In 2004, after the three left FrontRange and the dot-com bubble had burst, the former co-workers reconvened at what they considered an opportune time for a joint venture. Brown said that when faced with the revolutionary advancements companies such as IBM and BMC were making in the field of information technology, the three partners looked at each other and said: “Well, if they can, so can we.” See Startups page 19

Home prices, new construction on the rise in Fountain
Photo by Cameron Moix
Colorado construction company Oakwood Homes is one of many homebuilders working heavily in the east and southeast portions of Fountain, including the Cumberland Green subdivision. By Cameron Moix
A
ll signs point toward a bullish housing market in Fountain. The city's Economic Development Manager Kimberly Bailey said that Fountain is seeing its strongest speculative housing development in nearly 15 years — resulting from a historic regional demand for affordable residential real estate. “Right now we have about 3,200 housing plan submissions in the funnel,” she said. “That’s a lot.” According to data from the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department, there were 30 new single-family home construction permits pulled for Fountain in March compared to just seven in
March 2016. That was the highest number since 43 permits for new home construction were pulled in April 2013. Comparatively, records from the El Paso County Assessor’s Office show that 155 of the 387 permits pulled for projects in Fountain throughout the past 12 months have been for new residential construction. Most new home construction in Fountain is occurring in the city’s southeast quadrant, which has a plethora of previously undeveloped land. Among the housing developments built in that area in recent years are Cumberland Green (along Jimmy Camp Road) and Ventana (along Old Pueblo Road), where a variety of homebuilders are working quickly to supply a growing demand.
Although the newer single-family homes in Fountain can sell for more than $300,000, Bailey said she thinks that buyers are more enticed by the city’s ambiance than its affordability. “I don’t know that people are really being priced out [of the Colorado Springs market], because I think that we’re fairly — Kimberly comparable,” Bailey said. “What we have that maybe isn’t as common in other areas is larger lots, more room and a quieter lifestyle.” Although Fort Carson has always
been a strong population base for the Fountain market to draw from, Bailey said she thinks recent commercial development in the area has also played a part in making Fountain a more enticing option for potential homebuyers. “Our Mesa Ridge corridor is busting at the seams with a lot of site plans coming Bailey in,” she said. “We’ve also seen a significant up-tick in commercial activity and development along Bandley Drive.” Bailey said further commercial growth along Mesa Ridge is expected to
“Right now we have about 3,200 housing plan submissions in the funnel.”

RETAIL continue supporting residential growth in the eastern portion of the city, while the development that is currently being seen along Bandley Drive promises to provide the city’s Old Town District with much-needed services. “That will also give us a prime interstate frontage of business placement and commercial activity for our community,” she said. Bailey said the growth in the region has been fairly organic, growing gradually in the years since the recession before booming in the past 12 months. “Our housing market has always kept a pretty steady pace, even through the recessionary years,” she said. “We weren’t quite as impacted as many other communities were in that time frame. Before, we were around 13 to 15 percent, and then we dropped down to around 10 percent — so we kept double-digit growth numbers.” New Generation Homes, Aspen View Homes, Oakwood Homes and Challenger Homes are all building in Fountain. These builders currently focused on speculative development in Fountain’s east and southeast are relying on a market that real estate experts expect will continue to climb. Harry Salzman, a real estate broker who owns Salzman Real Estate Service, said that he has been working in the Fountain market for decades and has never before seen the kind of growth builders are counting on— both residentially and commercially. “There are more builders in greater Fountain than there are out east or in any other part of the county in that price range,” Salzman said of the new homes, which start out at an average of $250,000. “There are more choices and more demand.” Salzman attributes much of the development to an increasingly tight housing market in Colorado Springs. He said the increase in prices in the larger city, combined with decreased availability and skyrocketing apartment rents, will continue to make Fountain an attractive market for those looking to buy affordable homes. “The cost to rent today is much more expensive than home ownership,” Salzman said. “That lower price range — $250,000 to $275,000 and below — represents an awful lot of Fountain. The market demand for that price range is at a record high.” El Paso County records also show that Fountain saw a total of 848 residential sales in 2016, up 35 percent from 627 in 2015. The median sales price in Fountain Valley (which includes Security-Widefield) was $230,000 in March compared to $218,500 the same time last year, according to data from the Pikes Peak REALTORS Services Corp. Salzman said that as long as people have fairly good credit and expect to live in the same place for at least three years, it’s a prime time to buy. He also said that the area’s recent water-contamination scandal, where potentially harmful chemicals were found in potable water, has done little to deter buyers looking for a cheaper alternative to
Colorado Springs. Wells providing water to systems serving 80,000 residents of Widefield, Security and Fountain were found to be contaminated in 2016, and those wells have been closed. Fountain is not using surface water from Colorado Springs Utilities’ Southern Delivery System. “They would not even be building homes there — they would not even be doing specs — if the water issue wasn’t solved,” Salzman said. “That was really solved last year.” According to Salzman, key demographics for Fountain include not only military families and those looking for a better bargain; some are families looking to upgrade from older homes located in nearby Security-Widefield. “Older homes in Security and in certain parts of Widefield are going to be even more affordable than new homes in Fountain,” he said. “Those newer homes are absolutely going to be in Fountain. … So a lot of people living in Security-Widefield who are looking to upgrade are looking at Fountain. That alone could create market demand.” Bailey said there is still much need for development in the market, especially for multi-family construction. “There are varying levels of multi-family housing that are missing from our market that we definitely need to have,” Bailey said. Salzman, who deals exclusively in single-family homes, said that he’s unsure of trends related to multi-family development in Fountain. But he did say the low price point in the southern part of El Paso County is likely a deterrent for developers who know they can’t ask for rent that would justify the kinds of projects that often come with much bigger price tags (although construction costs might be cheaper to the south). For now, Bailey and Salzman both said the area’s growth will be buoyed by commercial and residential investment — much of which comes from nearby military installations such as Fort Carson, which may soon see somewhat of a revival. “More money is going to the military than we’ve seen in years,” Salzman said. “And quality of life correlates to location. There’s no doubt about it.” According to the most recently available census data, 8.2 percent of Fountain’s population is composed of active-duty military personnel and their families. According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s online American FactFinder database, there were an estimated 4,692 veterans living in Fountain as of 2015. “That’s where their peers live and that’s where they’re comfortable,” Salzman said. “A lot of them still want to go shopping on Carson … because that’s how they think, that’s what they are used to and the price is right for them. That translates to a market demand in housing.” CSBJ n

Startups: Two companies on different paths product at a much more competitive price. “We just developed Version III of our algorithm, which is really big for us,” Hare said. “It improves our accuracy, it reduces the cost of our product and it reduces processing power — that essentially means that we can do the same thing with a much cheaper hardware setup. That is what differentiates us in price from our nearest competitor.” Lot Spot uses specialized processors to analyze video streams for traffic flow. Because of the newly developed algorithm, Hare and McCormick have been able to reduce the cost of the necessary processing hardware from $800 per unit to $70. “Cost is a big deal,” Hare said. Hare said that the company’s product would also do much to help institutions such as UCCS, given that it costs an average of $20,000 to build each additional parking space. So, rather than spend $80,000 for four new spaces, Hare said the university could install enough product to effectively monitor and utilize the spaces it has — which he said is enough to accommodate the campus’s on-campus student population. “By providing them with this data, we can help to offset costs significantly,” Hare said. “It’s just a matter of information.” CSBJ

I think the three of us are a force to be reckoned with together; otherwise I don’t think it would have happened.” The consequent formation of Cherwell was informed by a series of buyouts, name changes and restructuring the founders had witnessed while working for FrontRange.

YOUNG PROFESSIONAL
Kelley meets challenge for others every day By Bryan Grossman
R
yan Kelley, 28, is a Colorado Springs native who, upon moving north, never thought he’d return to live in his hometown. But following college at Colorado State University in Fort Collins and a couple years living and working in Denver, Kelley came back and now says he can’t imagine living anywhere else. Kelley works as a senior project consultant at Meeting the Challenge, an accessibility compliance consulting firm that helps organizations and individuals navigate and abide by federal disability rights laws, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act. This week, Kelley spoke with the Business Journal about his hometown and the growth of his industry, largely thanks to the Department of Justice and increased enforcement. Where are you from? I’m a Colorado native. I’ve lived in Colorado Springs almost my whole life. I was here for 19 years and went to high school at Pine Creek and then to UCCS for a year. I decided UCCS wasn’t for me and wanted to venture out. I went to [Colorado State University] in Fort Collins and got a construction management degree. I then moved back to the Springs for six months before I took a construction job in Denver. I worked there a couple years and came back here, where I’ve been for the past two years. Why construction? I grew up landscaping. It was backbreaking, and that’s why I wanted to go to college. I didn’t want to do that the rest of my life. While landscaping, it was often around new houses being built. I thought it looked fun and I wanted to be a part of it. But instead of the backbreaking work, I got my degree in construction management so I could run those jobs from start to finish. How did you end up with Meeting the Challenge? I did an internship here during college doing fieldwork. I collected measurements — restrooms, parking lots, hospitals — and we’d match them for compliance with the ADA. It was a three-month internship, but I really liked the values of this company. They take care of their employees. Talk about Meeting the Challenge. Meeting the Challenge has been in operation since 1990 when the ADA first became a law. [The law] really didn’t go into effect until 1992. After 1992 the Department of Justice expected public space to be in compliance. With the consulting side, we work with public and private entities to create what the DOJ calls a transition plan and self-evaluation. The transition plan has to do with physical access to and inside the building — parking lots, curb ramps, sidewalks, doors, restrooms. We make sure they’re in compliance, so a person in a wheelchair can

access the restroom. If it’s not accessible, we come up with a transition plan, which is a massive database that says what’s wrong with the building and what we recommend to comply, and then we give them a timeframe. Some of these buildings have more than 100 things wrong with them. No one expects them to reach compliance in the first month. It takes time to budget and renovate. Low-hanging fruit, like lowering a coat hook, can be done within six months. Parking lots and concrete might be four years. And what about your job? My position is senior project consultant. ... I travel all over the country and we collect data on location — parks, rec centers, community centers. We usually do two-week trips, then come back to the office, upload to our database and do everything that can’t be automatically computed. … We have to make sure the measurements are compliant or not and then we present our findings and recommendations to the client. Larger entities we’ve reviewed sometimes have hundreds of facilities and sometimes up to 20,000 violations — maybe a city or a county. It can be overwhelming for our clients, but just starting a transition plan will usually get the DOJ to back off a little. It shows the business is trying to be in compliance.
Colorado Springs Business Journal
know about it, including business owners and even architects. We do plan reviews, so architects and engineers can send us their plans and we’ll let them know what to fix. But vetting plans is not a requirement? No, but I think it should be. Sometimes the design is correct but mistakes are made during construction. We’ve saved architects hundreds of thousands of dollars before projects have even started. What are common infractions? Starting with the exterior: parking lots. They may be missing the required number of parking stalls or a van accessible space. Also, slopes in parking lots are often too steep. Inside, restrooms are usually the No. 1 thing that’s not right. Door pressure and closing speed [issues] are also common. … Elevators are grandfathered if installed prior to 1992, but new ones are often not in compliance.
In the last few months, we’ve had 60 drive-by lawsuits from citizens in Colorado alone.
Do you also enforce compliance? We do not enforce. The only enforcement is through the Department of Justice. And often that’s why entities come to us — because they’re under a settlement agreement with the Department of Justice and part of that is to hire an ADA consultant. We help with the entire process. Being told they’re not in compliance stirs up panic [for businesses]. The ADA has been around for 26 years, but a lot of people still don’t
Did you need additional training? They don’t really go over the ADA in construction management. You’d think it would be pretty important when you’re building a building, but it didn’t come up once. All the training was done inhouse. … And after you do 100 bathrooms, you pretty much have it down. How has the company grown? Last year our revenue grew 500 percent. Meeting the Challenge is a for-profit and the [nonprofit] ADA Center is a project of Meeting the Challenge under a grant from the Department of Health and Human Services. The ADA Center is responsible for training and awareness, a lot of times with human resource pro-

fessionals, and its services are free. Are your clients usually large entities? Big scope: We usually do two or three clients a year. One we’re working on right now has 600 facilities. We also do small entities [companies], and we’ve seen a huge influx this last year — I think because of an increase in drive-by lawsuits. Mom-and-pops are being sued more over small things. Some are being proactive and some are just waiting for a complaint to come in. I’d say 75 percent have already been called out. The other 25 percent are seeing all these lawsuits and want to be proactive. Within about the last seven years we’re seeing the DOJ take more and more businesses, cities and counties to court whereas before, they weren’t really enforcing [the ADA]. What’s the source for legal complaints? Your average citizen. In the last few months, we’ve had 60 drive-by lawsuits from citizens in Colorado alone. Sometimes it’s one citizen leading all the lawsuits. How much does it cost for businesses to comply? For some renovations, especially for those that maintain more than 100 facilities, you’re talking millions of dollars. Individuals are usually in the thousands — p robably under $20,000 for places with one restroom and small parking lots. Many young professionals who leave Colorado Springs don’t come back. Why did you? A lot of my friends didn’t come back, and when I moved away, I didn’t think I’d come back. I got to experience Denver and Fort Collins at the perfect age. Now I’m ready to settle down, focus on my career, start a family — Colorado Springs is a family-oriented city. I grew up here my whole life and it’s familiar. I love it here and couldn’t picture myself moving away again. CSBJ n

Special Communication from the Better Business Bureau of Southern Colorado
Celebrate Small Business Week Special Commentary by Jonathan Liebert
Small businesses create two out of every three new jobs for Americans and for more than 50 years, National Small Business Week has served as our nation’s salute to small business owners. Small Business Week also provides national recognition through awards that honor the United States’ top entrepreneurs each year. Many household names were previous National Small Business Week award winners, including Ben and Jerry’s, Calloway Golf, Chobani, Dogfish Head, Stoneyfield Farm, Pacifica and Tom’s of Main. National Small Business week will be celebrated April 30th – May 6th this year. Hosted by the Small Business Administration (SBA), this organization helps pull together Small Business Week at the national and statewide level. Locally, Small Business Week is brought to our community through a partnership between the Pikes Peak Small Business Development Center (SBDC) and the Better Business Bureau of Sothern Colorado. This year will mark the 5th consecutive year that these two organizations have partnered to bring the largest Small Business Week in the State to Colorado Springs! In 2016, Small Business Week presented by US Bank in Colorado Springs brought in nearly 700 participants, which was an increase of about 100 from the prior year. Last year also marked the first inaugural food truck cook-off which sold out in advance of the event due to the popularity! We also honored the following Small Businesses:
Young Entrepreneur of the Year Honors an entrepreneur under the age of 35. (2016 Winner: Clay Guillory, Titan Robotics) Family-Owned Small Business of the Year Honors a family-owned and operated business with multiple generations represented. (2016 Winner: John & Beth Hughes, O’Brien’s Carpet One) Veteran Small Business Owner of the Year Honors a veteran-owned and operated business. (2016 Winner: David Hollenbeck, Soft Technology Co) Small Business Champion of the Year Honors an individual committed to the advancement of small business opportunities. (2016 Winner: Dave Van Ness, Old Colorado City Associates) Small Business Person of the Year Honors a business owner/operator (or team) who meets multiple criteria defining a successful entrepreneur. (2016 Winner: Mike Tipton, Integrity Communications Solutions) 2017 will be bigger and better, as we have grown from a 4-day to a 5-day event, making the Food Truck Cook-Off its own day as a great way to kick off the week! Admission includes sampling from 12 food trucks – all locally based here in Colorado Springs and vying for the People’s Choice and Judges’ Choice Awards. This year the Food Truck cook-off is being presented by HomeAdvisor. In celebration of our 5th anniversary, our Awards Celebration will be held at The Antlers
on May 4 with keynote speaker Kevin Knebl and emceed by Steve Kaczmarek, owner of Borealis Fat Bikes. In addition, we have also these great sponsors who are committed to supporting Small Businesses in our Region: Colorado Springs Chamber & EDC, Kaiser Permanente, Colorado Springs Business Journal, 92.9 Peak FM, 740 AM KVOR, KRDO News Channel 13, Peak Radar, Mt.

don’t care — they really do care,” she said. “It’s just when push comes to shove on some medical device that’s hooked up to a patient, they’re going pay attention to that medical device rather than care about leaving a screen open.” Dr. Marc Ringel, a family physician and author of books on medicine and information technology, said successful information security systems must avoid adding to physicians’ workloads. “User-friendliness is absolutely the most important [element],” he said. “If it’s not usable, then it won’t be used.” Needing “a slew of passwords” to access different parts of the data system or hospital records is a roadblock to security, he said. More user-friendly solutions could include a biometric single sign-on based on the retina or thumbprint. “Whatever it takes, usability is the key,” Ringel said. The need for more effective cybersecurity in health care is growing. The past six months have seen 169 breaches of unsecured protected health information affecting 500 or more individuals nationwide, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. In total, several million people were affected. Those figures don’t include breaches that affected fewer than 500 individuals; HIPAA regulations only require breaches affecting 500 or more individuals to be reported to HHS.

The array of threats includes personal information being stolen for fraud or for sale on the dark web; unauthorized access; loss or accidental disclosure; the emerging threat of hacking and sabotage of medical systems and devices connected to the Internet of Things; and ransomware. “Ransomware is on the rise… it is something that’s happen— Dr. Marc ing in health care, and it is a threat and something people need to become more aware of and guard against. That is life and death,” VanArsdale said. The increasing role of information technology in health care has vastly increased the opportunity for largescale breaches, Ringel said.
“[In 1990] I argued I wasn’t too worried about the security of electronic systems because if you walked into any office … there were paper charts strewn everywhere and anybody could pick them up; and that actually electronic systems with passwords were much more secure,” he recalled. “The trouble is you can steal a whole hell of a lot more in Ringel one fell swoop than you can with a pickup load of paper charts. “The threat is huge. The risk may be less per individual, but in aggregate it’s enormous.” Technology has also dramatically increased the burden health care providers, making security measures look like barriers to patient care.
“Whatever it takes, usability is the key.”
“There are a couple of things I would say from the point of view of a physician,” Ringel said. “It’s the exception when I meet a physician over 50 who wouldn’t quit if he or she could — and a huge part of that has to do with this information revolution. "Studies are showing that we’re now spending 40 percent of our time making clicks on a computer rather than with patients. Nobody went to medical school for that.” Physicians and other health care professionals must be involved early in the planning of new systems, to make sure the workload is kept as light as possible. “You find out how their workflow is, what their values are, how usable what you’re proposing is,” he said. “Then the best thing to do is to design a system that least taxes them.” Ringel said the work being done by CHIC is “hugely important,” not only in terms of expert-to-expert collaboration, but in gathering information and requirements from professionals on the front lines of health care. VanArsdale said there are several initiatives underway in Colorado Springs that relate to CHIC’s goals, with “a number of security experts brainstorming and putting together events for ... designing systems that would be non-intrusive to the workflow.” CHIC will unveil a web page in May.

Museum: Developments will follow, officials say From page 1
A COMPLEX PACKAGE Earlier this week, the Urban Renewal Authority approved a complex financial package that will provide $39 million for southwest downtown and museum-related infrastructure via State Sales Tax Increment Funding receipts, a benefit for Colorado Springs since state TIF revenues would otherwise flow to Denver. Will any local tax revenue be used for the project, as City Councilor Bill Murray has suggested? Yes, but the funds will be used for southwest downtown infrastructure, not directly for the museum. According to URA member Toby Gannett, “$3.5 million will need to come from the PPRTA, which was budgeted years ago to connect downtown with America the Beautiful Park ... $4.5 million is coming from the city for streetscape improvements, subject to appropriation and council approval. All records of the work of the URA are public documents and available on the URA website [csurbanrenewal.org]. We are working diligently to make this process transparent and beyond reproach. There is no developers’ conspiracy, just hard-working people who care deeply for our community’s future.” The timeline for building the museum is as short as possible, said Dick Celeste, chairman of the Olympic Museum.
“Our aim is to get this completed in the next two years,” he said. “Weather permitting, we hope to open the museum in early 2019.” Will other buildings begin construction in southwest downtown before the museum opens? “I think so,” said Bob Cope, the city’s economic development manager who directed the city’s application for RTA funding. “We’ve seen that similar developments in other cities have brought new construction to the area, such as hotels and residential buildings, but I don’t know of anything definite yet.” It will happen, Celeste says, as the museum starts to take shape. “People want to see something,” he said. “Once we’re underway, there should be some [activity].”
A LONG, STRANGE TRIP The Olympic Museum has been in the city’s plans for decades. In 1986, Frank Aries, the flamboyant Arizona land developer who had acquired the 25,000-acre Banning-Lewis Ranch on the city’s eastern boundary, offered the U.S. Olympic Committee 150 acres of choice land in the nascent development at no cost. The only condition: that an Olympic Hall of Fame be located there. Credulous officials in the city and the USOC took Aries seriously — after all, he was the multimillionaire visionary who supposedly would transform the
ranch into a vast suburban community, raising project. Unaware of the project’s home to more than 100,000 residents. early history, he revived it in 2012. But Aries defaulted on his loans.

Trumponomics vs. Reaganomics: No repeating and no rhyming
M
ark Twain said, “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.” Will this be the case for our new administration? President Donald Trump has outlined his pro-growth initiatives to stimulate the economy, and he has clearly taken a page out of former President Ronald Reagan’s playbook. Reagan’s campaign focused MATHEWS on fiscal stimulus, lower taxes, less government interference (regulation), and a strong national defense — a platform termed Reaganomics. In November 2016, I heard this storyline again, only this time it was called Trumponomics. While these actions worked to stimulate the economy during Reagan’s administration, will they produce the same kind of results this time around? And if they don’t, what does that mean for our economy? While history may not repeat itself, as Twain said, we don’t think it will rhyme either in today’s very different economic environment.
KC
A LOOK BACK — FISCAL STIMULUS IN THE 1980S Several important acts passed by the Reagan administration in the 1980s worked quite effectively, beginning with the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, which lowered the top marginal tax bracket from 70 percent to 50 percent. The Job Training Partnership Act of 1982 was signed into law next, creating the first public-private partnerships in order to create jobs. In 1986, Reagan launched the Tax Reform Act, simplifying the tax code.
REAGANOMICS’ RESOLUTION— INTENDED AND UNINTENDED There’s no question there were some positive economic results during Reagan’s administration. Unemployment declined from a peak of 10.8 percent in 1982 to 5.4 percent when he left office. Real gross domestic product growth (GDP) averaged 3.5 percent during his presidency with a high of 9.4 percent in 1983. However, there was a byproduct of all this as well — the national debt. The U.S. debt nearly tripled from $997 billion to $2.85 trillion.
DÉJÀ VU? NOT QUITE—THE NEW PLOT THICKENS At this time we don’t know exactly how Trumponomics will play out, but I do have a sense of déjà vu. The material difference to their platforms is that we are not at the same stage of the economic cycle, so the results may be very different. Unlike the Reagan era, we are not coming out of a recession, just the opposite — we are late in the economic cycle. Key differences include: Unemployment rate • When Reagan took office, the unemployment rate was 7.5 percent. By 1982 it peaked at 10.8 percent. • Today the unemployment rate stands at 4.8 percent and appears to be headed lower, or at least stabilizing.
INTEREST RATES • Interest rates peaked in 1981, with long-term rates hitting 15.8 percent. And as inflation was breaking down, interest rates lowered quickly.

• Today, long-term interest rates are 2.5 percent and headed higher, with inflation virtually non-existent.
FREE TRADE AND IMMIGRATION • Reagan was for free trade and immigration. In the early 1980s, there was a surge in immigration, which helped support labor force growth. • Trump is for fair free trade and controlled immigration, which means we could see less immigration under the Trump program.
FACTUAL FORESHADOWING Let’s assume that some of Trump’s plans are executed in 2017. Will they translate into significantly faster economic growth? Probably not. The reality is, even with all the positive items that occurred with Reagan’s fiscal stimulus, Reaganomics did not produce an overwhelming boom for the economy.
ECONOMIC EPILOGUE All this being said, we do suggest that fiscal stimulus will be beneficial for the U.S. economy in 2017, and that economic growth will accelerate to 2.5 percent, up from 1.6 percent in 2016. The Fed’s forecast is slightly more conservative at 2.1 percent real GDP in 2017. One thing to remember is that it’s still early; we are not certain what Trump and his administration will accomplish. However, if he is successful in implementing many of his initiatives, we may have higher interest rates, an increase in inflation and continued strength in the dollar. We are confident we will also experience an improvement in economic activity. KC Mathews is chief investment officer for UMB Bank.
