The wheels on the bus go round with electricity in Aurora this year as the city pushes toward accommodating EVs on the road
Greg, Joyce and Tim all agree that by buying stock in the Green Bay Packers, they each got a worthless piece of paper.
The three of them are among the 537,460 who’ve peeled off anywhere from $5 to $300 dollars during one of six times the Packers have had offerings for stock shares. They’re shares that can’t be sold or traded and pay no dividends — in cash.
The Green Bay Packers are the only community-owned football team in the NFL.
It’s the combined force of the community and “The Pack” that makes things happen for the Green Bay community.
“It’s ‘we,’” said Tim Clark of nearby DePere, Wisconsin, who bought his $200 share in 1997. “When ‘we’ do something, and when the team does something, it really is ‘we.’”
And that brings me to The Sentinel
Almost two months ago, the years-long owner of this century-old newspaper donated what is now a digital daily and print weekly Colorado staple to a bold experiment in keeping The Sentinel, and so many papers like it, alive.
Courtney Oakes offered unparalleled insight and detail into dozens of local prep athletes, tabbed All-City best in a bevy of sports.
And just before I left for the Green Bay Packers annual shareholder meeting, The Sentinel took readers on a gripping 10-year tour of the community since the 2012 Aurora theater massacre.
Tomorrow, reporter Carina Julig will tell you how an Arkansas artist created and moved an 8,500-pound, 38-foot abstract sculpture to a growing Aurora outdoor museum.
PERRY EditorWhile these three stockholders, and others whom I queried July 25 during the team’s annual shareholder meeting inside Lambeau Field, lampooned their unique certificates, they each went on to detail how critical the football organization was to each of them and the entire Green Bay community.
“We wouldn’t have any of this without the Pack,” Greg, my Uber driver, said as he pointed out a school, a winery and a factory that makes napkins for probably half the country. “I wouldn’t have this job.”
We drove away from Green Bay’s Titletown, an amazing city center, courtesy of the Packers and the community. It’s filled with places to eat, drink and play. It’s also a hub to startup businesses among fellow entrepreneurs at TitletownTech, arguably the best working space in Wisconsin.
Joyce’s share reaches back to 1950. The “just a worthless piece of paper” has been parlayed time and again, she said, into a community prize offering something for everyone — jobs, road repairs and a future.
It seemed to be a citywide consensus that — love, hate or be unable to care less about the Packers — investment in the team paid everyone near, and far, dividends that can’t be measured in margins, points or splits.
A group of passionate journalists and others who just as passionately understand the critical mission of the media, The Colorado News Collaborative, joined with news industry consultant Joaquin Alvarado to orchestrate a holding company.
That’s where The Sentinel is now. Holding.
We’re in a holding pattern while Alvarado’s Colorado Journalism Investment Group and others explore a unique idea: Green Bay Pack-ing The Sentinel for Aurora.
Like the Packers, you either love, hate or couldn’t care-less about what The Sentinel offers up several times a day, every day.
Yesterday, Sentinel Reporter Max Levy brought Aurora keen insights into a proposal that could drastically change the balance of power on the Aurora City Council by combining city elections with general elections.
Last week, The Sentinel offered readers critical details and context about Aurora Police Department’s mandated reform progress. It’s a story that directly affects every resident and business in the shadow of useof-force abuses scrupulously documented by The Sentinel
Also last week, The Sentinel brought readers a close look at how schools in the Aurora region are handling security just after the Uvalde, Texas, school massacre.
Over the past few weeks, Sports Editor
We did all that, we do so much more, and we will continue to offer Aurora even more, every day, because of our commitment and yours.
The Sentinel and you, our readers, supporters, detractors, advertisers, subscribers and donors make all this unique and crucial journalism happen, every day.
This is a “we” proposition.
Although The Sentinel is in a holding pattern right now, we’re not sitting still. While we’re explaining how state, national and local elections will affect you and how this astounding diverse community is finding its way through myriad challenges, we’re experimenting.
The Sentinel is exploring how “we” can emulate what the community of Green Bay did in 1923, when they offered stock in a venture that has become critical every day there, whether they win or lose.
We’re working through the details to find out how we can parlay community investment in The Sentinel, so it can grow and thrive on its own.
“We” are looking for a way to ensure a bigger Sentinel can provide all of us with the benefits of trusted journalism, so that generations to come can be assured that “we” have their backs, win or lose.

Besides the inarguable fact that too many Aurora police officers used abusive, sometimes deadly force against residents here during the past several years, the very core of Aurora’s police problem has long been transparency and accountability.
Had those two critical failures been addressed years ago, as they became apparent, the police department would likely not be in the alarming place it is now.
Now, the city and its police department are under a court agreement to cooperate with the state attorney general’s office to implement a host of reforms across the sector. The so-called “consent decree” is the result of years of repeated and systemic problems surrounding racism and the abuse of force by some officers, and the department.
Aurora’s police and fire departments find themselves in the position of being internationally notorious for the death of Elijah McClain, as well as the abuse of black girls and women who were forced to lie face down on hot pavement during an erroneous arrest.
The list of atrocities committed by some members of the department, re-hired after being caught on video referring to people of color as “porch monkeys” or passing out drunk in a squad car have for years met with a system and department eager and committed to keeping its iniquities quiet and behind closed doors.
The most dangerous problem for Aurora police and the community is that, by all known accounts, the 600-700 members of the Aurora police department have not only never abused the use of force or behaved in any way other than diligently and professionally. Yet they’ve been saddled with the gruesome acts committed by a few and then hidden or rebuffed by the department.
Despite years of demands by members of the community, rank and file officers and The SentinelEditorial Board to create a permanent structure of independent review, transparency
and accountability, past police chiefs insisted police alone can and should handle their own problems.
Nothing has been more damaging to the police department and the community than that flawed policy.
Despite a world of accountability crashing down on the Aurora police department now, it’s apparently yet to learn that lesson.
In the first report made by the independent monitor to work among the city, the police, the fire department and the state attorney general’s office, a clear picture emerged that Aurora police aren’t getting the message.
To the police department’s credit, the monitor lauded police and city officials for being eager to work on issues like training, messaging and searching for ways to change a culture of secrecy and disregard.
It’s encouraging and expected that, in light of recent state laws, prompted in part by Aurora police malfeasances and abuses, that it would understand that police must report and even intervene in abuses made by fellow officers.
It’s good news that Aurora police are teaching officers that they no longer have vast immunity from prosecution and responsibility for committing cruelties and offenses “in the line of duty.”
It’s absolutely a relief for residents, especially people of color, to hear that Aurora police are focusing on teaching officers the best ways to defuse confrontational interaction with the public, reducing the likelihood of anyone being injured or the public being abused.
What the independent monitor raised alarm over is the department’s recent handling of an abuse-of-force incident that clearly was mishandled by existing department oversight.
The criticism comes after the recent worrisome dismissal of Police Chief Vanessa Wilson, who’d made huge strides in repairing the department’s lack of trust by visibly holding the department accountable for change.
IntegrAssure, the risk management firm appointed as the independent monitor, fo-
cused on a May 2021 traffic stop. During the incident, Aurora police Officer Gabriel Nestor pulled his gun on a motorist, Preston Nunn III, who had reached into his clothing after being told to hand over his driver’s license and registration.
Nunn, who is Black, was pulled over after Nestor said Nunn drove dangerously close to him while Nestor was conducting another traffic stop, Sentinel reporter Max Levy wrote recently.
In police bodycam video, Nunn clearly does not immediately comply with Nestor’s demands.
“At gunpoint, Nunn was ordered to put his hands on his face, “which he failed to do to the officer’s satisfaction,” the report said. The monitor notes that Nestor “became extremely agitated” during the incident, “using expletives to issue various orders.”
The video speaks for itself, with Nestor clearly becoming unhinged, terrifying Nunn.
“The police department’s Force Review Board evaluated the incident the following month, determining that Nestor made a legal traffic stop and used his body-worn camera appropriately but “could have been more professional” and “more in control of himself.”
That’s pretty much how Aurora police have handled these incidents in the past. Be more “professional” next time.
IntegrAssure balked at the review board’s failure to consider Nestor’s involvement in another use-of-force incident a month prior. Then, he shot a burglary suspect with “less-lethal” ammunition, which the department deemed “unsatisfactory performance,” according to TheSentinelstory.
Nestor also reportedly caused a “serious traffic crash” in October 2020, for which he was reprimanded, an incident that was also apparently not considered by the board.
Pointing out that it was clear the incident nearly spun out of control into an officer-involved shooting, “The Board’s review should have been much more critical, in the nature of a deep-diving after-action report, with every
aspect of how that which occurred could have been avoided and probed for lessons which could be taught both to the involved officer and to the Department at large.”
The monitor identified a host of alarming problems with the arrest not even considered by the force review board.
It’s unacceptable and bodes ill for Aurora, and especially people of color who live and work here.
It’s no secret that many Black and Latino residents live in constant dread of being confronted by an Aurora police officer for any reason.
The same critical report of the monitor also pointed out a recent poll of residents showing that a majority of residents do not trust or have faith in Aurora police because of its past mistakes, and even fewer people of color have faith that they can trust a local cop.
People across the nation are afraid for their lives of being confronted by a police officer, and this recent grievous error only makes that reality worse.
City council should push for immediate changes in the reform process to make every action of the force review board, as well as the police internal affairs panel, public by report of the independent monitor, at least on a weekly basis.
The credibility of the department, the reputation of the vast number of officers who diligently and admirably carry out their duties, and the wellbeing of the public is at stake.
City lawmakers should push back against some members of city council who act as shills for police who are critical of the reform process and holding officers and the department rightfully accountable for mistakes just like this. The vile episodes that have drawn international scorn and shame on Aurora police are only a symptom of the problem this department is a long ways from solving. Solve the problem.
Editor: In the 1980s, I served on the Judicial Nominating Commission for the 18th Judicial District, as part of Colorado’s nonpartisan and nonpolitical judge selection process.
The commission interviewed applicants and gave our nominations to the governor for appointment as judge.
We were very impressed by one applicant but were concerned that his only legal experience was as a prosecutor, giving him a limited view of the law. He got a job with a law firm which practiced in other areas of the law. The next time he applied, he enthusiastically said his experience had widened his viewpoint. He became an excellent judge.
Tuesday evening, I attended the Attorney General Candidate Forum between current-AG Phil Weiser and District Attorney
John Kellner. Weiser has a very broad background in a number of areas of the law, including water law, civil rights, consumer protection, etc., many of which he has had to apply in representing the state.
Kellner has only been a prosecutor and his single-focused issue in this campaign is fighting crime, prosecuting criminals. He may be doing a good job of that, but he has no other legal experience and has been District Attorney for the 18th Judicial District for less than 2 years. He is woefully unqualified to serve Colorado as Attorney General. The state Attorney General is not just a higher level of prosecutor; he is the attorney for the state in many areas. We need to re-elect AG Phil Weiser.

Every other year, a new crop of city lawmakers are elected by the fraction of Aurorans who turn out to vote — less than 31% of registered voters in 2021.
Odd-year local elections can be where the direction of policing, education, road maintenance and more are decided by city councils and school boards. But unlike evenyear elections, which install congresspeople and presidents, local contests tend to draw a much smaller sample of the population, which tends to be older and wealthier than the jurisdiction as a whole.
It’s a situation that may tilt elections in favor of conservatives — a fact that one progressive council member didn’t dwell on while sharing proposals to increase voter turnout with lawmakers last week, including shifting council elections to even years and noting candidates’ party affiliation on ballots.
Councilmember Juan Marcano did focus on how other cities that don’t practice official nonpartisanship and those which shifted their elections to coincide with even-year races saw greater participation.
“We’re not alone in that problem,” Marcano said of year-to-year dips in voter turnout. “A lot of other cities have actually taken steps to correct that problem, and what they
did is they ended up moving their elections to even years to coincide with state and federal elections.”
Conservative Francoise Bergan and Angela Lawson, fellow members of the city council committee where Marcano presented his proposals, were skeptical. Both said they were worried that changing the timing of elections would lead to fewer people researching the local candidates and issues up for consideration, leading the public to make uninformed decisions.
Marcano said he believed the proposed changes could also help address the polarization and partisan conflict that has become ubiquitous on the council.
Aurora’s City Council is nonpartisan in the sense that a candidate’s party affiliation isn’t included on the municipal election ballot. But Aurora council members tend to decide controversial issues along party lines, and the current council is no stranger to open partisan conflict.
Progressives achieved a functional majority on council in the final year of the Trump presidency. But when Councilmember Nicole Johnston stepped down in June 2021, the liberal and conservative factions found themselves at a deadlock and failed to fill her vacant seat because they could not agree on
a replacement.
Then, in November, voters elected a new crop of mostly conservative council members. A new majority of seven has guaranteed the success of conservative proposals such as Mayor Mike Coffman’s once-torpedoed homeless camping ban but hasn’t stopped hostility from erupting on and off the dais.
Council members have given one another nicknames like “the minister of propaganda” and walked out of meetings. In March, one member sponsored a resolution to ban “attacks of a personal nature” on the dais. A month and a half later, the same council member used Twitter to accuse two colleagues of misusing public funds.
“I think that one of the best cures that we have (for) some of the polarization that we’re experiencing in our country and really improving trust in our institutions is improving the participation in our local elections,” Marcano said.
He cited academic research focusing on changes in election timing in California cities, which reportedly led to a larger group that was more representative of the total population in terms of age, race and party affiliation casting votes in local contests.
Three houses were severely damaged by fire and smoke in southeast Aurora, creating huge plumes of smoke and displacing residents from all homes, according to Aurora Fire and Rescue officials.
There were no injuries reported.
“There are no early indications of the cause of this fire,” firefighter officials said in a statement. “Investigators are on scene to conduct their work.”
Firefighters were called to the fire on the 17400 block of East Whitaker Drive at about 2:30 p.m.
Soon after, reinforcements were called in, summoning seven engines, four ladder trucks and a variety of supervisors and staff.
Officials said residents displaced because of the fires were referred to the Colorado Wyoming Red Cross for assistance.
— SENTINEL STAFFIt’s that time of year again. After an all-too-fast summer, the 20222023 school year is just around the corner for Aurora students.
Aurora Public Schools’ first day of school is August 9 for students in first through 12 grade, and Aug. 15 for students in kindergarten and preschool. The Cherry Creek School District will have a phased-in start August 15 through 17.
APS is asking families to check their returning students in online before the school year starts, which can be done at the district’s website. Families with students in grades 3 through 8 who are interested in the district’s online learning program can also apply online.
The district will have an in-per-
son back to school kickoff on Saturday, Aug. 6 at the Town Center at Aurora from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The kickoff will have free food, games and entertainment. Free backpacks and school supplies will be distributed while supplies last. Families will also have the opportunity to register their students for school, meet school staff, get the COVID-19 vaccine and other immunizations and get connected to other community resources.
The COVID-19 vaccine is now available for everyone over six months of age. Information about where to get a COVID-19 vaccine or test locally is available on the Tri-County Health Department website at www.tchd.org/818/ Coronavirus-COVID-19 and from the Colorado Department of Health and Environment online at covid19. colorado.gov/ or by calling 1-877268-2926.
APS is hosting a number of vaccine clinics for families and community members. The next one is scheduled for Friday from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Clyde Miller P-8, 1701 Espana Street.
COVID-19 health policies will remain largely the same at APS as they were at the end of the last school year. Students are encouraged but not required to be vaccinated, while it will continue to be required for district employees.
Students and staff who test positive for COVID-19 will be required to stay home for five days and wear a mask inside for the five days following, as per current guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
In Cherry Creek, the district will report data to data to the Tri-County Health Department until it officially ends at the end of the year and the state when required to, according to spokesperson Abbe Smith. Starting in 2023, the district will report to the newly-established Arapahoe County health department.
“We will continue to offer rapid tests through our school clinics to families and staff as supplies exist, and we will also strongly encourage everyone to stay home when sick, Smith said. “This is a huge piece to our success in preventing the spread of COVID-19 and all other communicable diseases.
Masks won’t be required of students or teachers, but they may wear them if they choose to.
Tri-County executive director Dr. John Douglas told The Sentinel that he did not anticipate future public health orders to limit the spread of the coronavirus unless a new variant that is much more effective at infecting and sickening vaccinated people emerges.
“I wouldn’t see us reintroducing that unless things get substantially worse,” he said of mask mandates.
Unlike the past several years, families will once again need to apply for free and reduced lunch. At the beginning of the pandemic, the U.S. Department of Agriculture expanded its school lunch programs, and through the end of the past school year all students were allowed to receive free school meals without families having to fill out paperwork to qualify. That expansion has now expired. Applications opened July 1 and can be completed at any point during the school year.
In Cherry Creek, families can apply online or ask for a paper copy of the application form at the student nutrition center or their student’s school.
APS families can apply online at payschoolscentral.com or get a paper application at the Nutrition Services Department office at 15771 East 1st Avenue.
APS had its first board of education meeting on Tuesday night, and will have its second meeting of the month on Tuesday, Aug. 16. Starting this school year the board has switched to a twice-monthly schedule, with the first meeting of
the month designated as a standing work session without public comment or any votes.
Meetings will continue to be held at the district’s Professional Learning and Conference Center at 15771 East 1st Avenue at 6 p.m., and will also be broadcast live on YouTube and Zoom.
The Cherry Creek board of education will have its first meeting of the school year on Monday, Aug. 8 at 7 p.m. at Fox Ridge Middle School in Aurora. The board meets in person the second Monday of each month at 7 p.m. at a different district school.
— CARINA JULIG, Sentinel Staff WriterThe Aurora Public Schools board of education will vote later this month on whether to approve compensation for future board members, a shift that members said they hope will make serving on the board accessible to a wider swath of the community.
The board discussed the future vote at its meeting Tuesday, the first of the upcoming school year. It also marked the start of a new twice-monthly meeting format for the school board, which the board voted to approve at its June meeting. Under the new schedule, the first meeting of each month will be a standing special meeting where the board will not hear public comment or take votes.
The change is an attempt to curb the length of the board’s meetings, which during the past school year regularly ended after midnight due to the number of items on each agenda and the volume of people who spoke at public comment. The long hours on a school night were a strain on district employees who were required to stay to present to the board and run the meetings, as well as for board members, the majority of whom have day jobs or school aged children.
The shift was effective at least for the first meeting, which ran for about two and a half hours. During the meeting the board discussed the policy for compensating board members, which board member Michael Carter spearheaded.
The idea had initially been discussed last fall but was put aside before the school board election. The discussion followed legislation in the 2020-2021 session that allowed for school board members to receive financial compensation instead of serving on a purely voluntary basis.
So far, school boards in Denver and Sheridan have voted to approve compensation, and it has been discussed in Adams 14, according to Chalkbeat Colorado.
Carter said that giving future board members a stipend would allow for more district parents who are low income to consider running for school board.
“I never want a financial restraint to be a reason someone can’t be on this board,” he said.
According to information on the district’s website, 74.2% of APS
families qualify for free or reduced lunch.
The changes to the board’s policy being considered would allow board members to receive a stipend of $150 per board meeting or other official board duties, with a cap of $450 total per month, according to board documents. Board members may waive compensation if they do not personally feel like they need it.
Debbie Gerkin said that she supported the measure, saying that she was lucky that she hasn’t had to worry about money being a constraint during her time on the board but that others are in a different situation.
“I think we need as much participation as possible on the board,” she said.
Nichelle Ortiz said she was in support of the measure as well. Though the board is racially diverse, she said that it does not represent the socioeconomic makeup of the district, which includes wealthy families as well as families living below the poverty line.
“Drive from one end of Colfax to the other and you will see this play out,” she said.
Carter said that the change would not be a magic bullet, but that it would allow potential board members to be able to pay for childcare or other expenses that might serve as a barrier.
“The easy part is putting this on paper, the hard part is going out and getting people to be on the board,” he said.
Board members cannot vote to compensate themselves, so if approved the vote will go into effect in July 2025, after the terms of all the current sitting board members have expired.
The item will be placed on the consent agenda for the board’s next meeting, which is scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 16 at 6 p.m. It will take place at the district’s Professional Learning and Conference Center at 15771 East 1st Avenue, and will also be broadcast live on YouTube and Zoom.
— CARINA JULIG, Sentinel Staff WriterFriends and family of a 41-yearold man struck and killed while walking his two dogs have created a funding page to benefit his widow and three children.
Family members say it was Jason Lyman and his two dogs that were hit by a car and killed early Friday, and police are searching for the driver, who fled the scene on foot.
“The suspect is on the run...,” APD Agent Matthew Longshore said in a statement.
Police said the hit-and-run pedestrian collision happened at about 2:30 a.m. in the area of Reservoir Road and East Hampden Avenue, near the Cherry Creek State Park in Aurora.

According to an essay by University of California San Diego professor Zoltan Hajnal, which Marcano included in the committee’s agenda packet, off-cycle city elections in California may grant an outsized amount of power to an “extraordinarily unrepresentative set of residents” — politically active labor unions in some places and wealthy, white conservatives in others.
Under Marcano’s proposal, shifting local elections to even-numbered years would require council candidates elected in 2023 and 2025 to accept threeyear terms rather than the typical four-year term, with on-cycle local elections beginning in 2026.
Bergan said the move would work against candidates trying to reach voters.
“We have a special election for City Council, and the attention is only on City Council. I feel like it gives us a better platform when you’re running for office to get your messages out to the voters,” Bergan said. “I think you might get greater participation, but I don’t think it’s going to be thoughtful participation.”
Marcano disagreed.
“I take offense, actually, to that characterization of our electorate,” Marcano replied. “It actually creates more cohesion around issues and candidates who are already basically building working relationships with folks who are running for other levels of government.”
He also suggested that the city start requiring candidates to declare their party affiliation or identify as unaffiliated on local ballots, which he said the city is permitted to do as a home-rule city.
Marcano argued, citing a statement from NYU Law’s Brennan Center for Justice and an article by Rice University and University of Notre Dame professors, that the change could make it easier for voters to identify candidates who share their views and could also boost participation.
The documents also indicate that officially nonpartisan elections may favor Republicans. In Aurora’s 2021 election, turnout
among registered Democrats was lower than both Republicans and unaffiliated voters.
Bergan and Lawson both said they thought the change would turn people off to local politics by associating candidates with the country’s two dominant and frequently divisive political parties.
“One of the things that’s so interesting and makes municipal government unique is because it is nonpartisan,” said Lawson, who currently tends to vote with the council’s conservative bloc but identifies as unaffiliated. “Internally, let’s just be real, it is partisan. But … if you have people who are not trying to be in any of this and want to just run to do good for the people of the city and the community, then I think that’s attractive.”
Marcano said the lack of partisanship, at least in Aurora, is a myth.
“I don’t like the hyperpartisan, vitriolic environment that we have,” Marcano said. “The first step to addressing a problem is acknowledging that you have it… I feel that it’s incumbent on us to be transparent with our residents.”
Related to the issue, Marcano and Lawson said they would work on a proposal for state lawmakers to prevent people from being barred by their employers for running for office in partisan races, which was another concern raised by Lawson.
Lawson and Bergan also said they did not support an idea of Marcano’s to fill some council vacancies by having the group who filled out a departing candidate’s nominating petition vote on their replacement, saying those signatories may not be representative of the group that ultimately elected the candidate.
A proposal by Councilmember Alison Coombs to create a citizen committee to evaluate the city’s current charter was not heard because the related materials weren’t included in the committee’s agenda packet.
The Charter Review Ad Hoc Policy Committee is scheduled to meet next at 2:30 p.m. Aug. 23, when Coombs’ proposal may be considered. A public hearing will be scheduled after that.

Jeff Derry, executive director of the Center for Snow and Avalanche Studies, collects samples of snow on Loveland Pass on July 18, 2022, outside Georgetown, Colo. Hugh Carey/ The Colorado Sun via AP
As the focus on the electron microscope resolved, Richard Reynolds found himself feeling more resigned than surprised.
The slide before him was a snowpack sample collected from pristine Colorado high country. The sample revealed, at intense magnification, the snowpack’s expected sprinkling of rock fragments and spikey grains of sand.
BY MICHAEL BOOTH, The Colorado SunIt also revealed what shouldn’t have been there at all: long, straight, human-made fibers of plastic.
The sight confirmed what Reynolds, a retired U.S. Geological Survey researcher, and his colleagues had suspected after seeing snowpack studies from far away places: An invisible layer of microplastic blankets the Rocky Mountains, polluting our snowpack and our water in yet undefined ways.
“It seems to be everywhere,” said Reynolds, coauthor of a new study of the microplastics detected throughout the Upper Colorado River Basin.
“And there’s a lot of it.”
Fragments of shredded truck tires blown in from nearby highways. Pieces of plastic bottles lifted from a Utah landfill by siroccos and dropped onto Loveland Pass. Detritus from the Pacific garbage patch catapulted by El Nino in-
to the San Juan mountains. The microplastics on the slides are too tiny to offer identities like brand names or shapes. But those distant sources are the initial suspicions of the research team as they plan followup studies on more samples.
A host of wildlife and water quality researchers are likely to descend on the study results to gauge impacts of invisible plastic fibers riding snowmelt into every crevice of the high country. They’ll also be looking for any dangers for the cities downhill that rely on that water.
“Microplastics are very persistent. So where are they going to end up?” said Steven Fassnacht, professor of snow hydrology and a senior research scientist at Colorado State University. Fassnacht was not involved in the USGS microplastics study, but is familiar with the team’s work.
“I think we’re going to start seeing more and more microplastics in fish, and in our drinking water,” he said.
For now, the immediate news is bad enough: Much like the dark red dust that blows onto the snowpack from Colorado Plateau and Great Basin storms and creates rust-colored layer cakes above treeline, the microplastics may absorb sunshine and speed up snowmelt.
The previously known impurities in Colorado snow had already piled on the current 22-year drought and long-term climate change to threat-
en state water resources and outdoor recreation that rely on deep winters. Darker dust layers are an “accelerant” to early snow loss, researchers say. Drought in turn worsens the dust storms by stripping the moisture that binds soil together across the West.
“Climate change is showing its ugly head now,” said Jeff Derry, a coauthor of the microplastics study and executive director for the Center for Snow and Avalanche Studies which has sensors across the San Juan Mountains. “This year in southern Colorado we saw the snow melt essentially a month early.”
Reynolds and USGS researchers Harland Goldstein and Raymond Kokaly had been working with Derry’s center for years to investigate the samples he brought back from high country sites.
Until recently, they focused on identifying where the dust in the snow layers blew in from, and analyzed mineral content and the physical properties that speed up snowmelt by absorbing more solar energy than pure white snow. This is the “albedo,” with a scale that starts at 0 for so dark it absorbs everything, up to 1, a perfect reflection of the energy.
But the whole crew was also seeing more and
Democrat incumbent Phil Weiser and Republican attorney general candidate John Kellner went head to head on everything from police reform to abortion access at a sprawling forum this week.
Sen. Rhonda Fields billed the Tuesday night event at the Community College of Aurora, which was sponsored in part by Sentinel Colorado and 9News, not as a debate but as an opportunity for each candidate to answer questions posed by journalists and the public.
That didn’t stop Kellner from repeatedly challenging Weiser’s commitment to justice for crime victims, and the two candidates jabbed at each other throughout the night.
Weiser framed his understanding of justice in the context of his grandparents’ decision to immigrate to America after they were freed from a Nazi concentration camp, and named as an inspiration former U.S. Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who he once clerked for.
Priorities for Weiser in what would be his second term include defending the state’s gun control laws against legal challenges and promoting stricter regulations, specifically around gun storage, along with protecting children from social media companies and the vaping industry, and standing up for voting rights.
While Kellner accused Weiser of taking a “lax approach to crime and public safety,” Weiser bragged about recent courtroom victories, such as the successful prosecution of a burglary ring that targeted Asian-American business owners and a $1.85 billion concession from student loan company Navient to borrowers in dozens of states for alleged predatory lending.
“Our democracy is not a spectator sport. It’s a team sport,” Weiser said. “The reason I want to continue is because we’ve got more work to do. We’ve made extraordinary progress. We’ve built a great team I’m proud of, and I want to see that work through.”
Kellner grew up in a military family but said the Sept. 11 attacks were ultimately what steered him toward a career serving his country — for five years, he served active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps, including a deployment to Afghanistan as a deputy judge advocate, before returning to Colorado to work as a prosecutor.
Voters narrowly picked Kellner for the job of 18th Judicial District attorney in 2020. The district encompasses most of Aurora. He said he was motivated to run for state office by what he described as Weiser’s office’s failure to address a statewide spike in crime.
Data maintained by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Census Bureau indicate that, between 2018 and 2021, the state’s murder rate increased from about 0.39 for every 10,000 residents to 0.63, while the motor vehicle theft rate climbed from 40.25 to 72.35.
Kellner specifically denounced Weiser’s support of certain general assembly bills,
including proposals on bail reform and car theft, which he said impacted the state’s ability to control crime.
“Crime is crushing Coloradans,” Kellner said. “It is soft-on-crime policies and laws that have been signed into law by Gov. (Jared) Polis and many times championed by people like Phil Weiser that have led us to where we are when it comes to crime.”
Kellner and other Colorado Republicans have on several occasions made the charge against recent reforms. Democratic opponents repeatedly push back, saying Republicans have not provided any vetted data showing that sentencing changes and bail reform are fueling the spike in crime.
Colorado’s top attorney is largely removed from the prosecution of street crime but is empowered to pursue a handful of more complex and white-collar crimes, including fraud, human trafficking, multi-jurisdictional organized crime and homicides related to the drug trade.
The attorney’s office also litigates consumer protection cases, oversees the certification of police officers in the state and represents state agencies in court, among other duties.
When asked what he would do as attorney
general to tackle the state’s auto theft problem, Kellner said he wanted to create an auto task force and advocate for harsher penalties for thefts regardless of vehicle value — right now, state law defines theft of a car worth less than $2,000 as a misdemeanor, while stealing more expensive cars is a felony.
Weiser spoke about his office’s work to tackle organized crime through Operation Vicious Cycle and other efforts, and support district attorneys in local prosecutions. He also said he worked with legislators on proposals to curb catalytic converter theft.
“The bottom line is we’re going to need collaboration — learning from what works, seeing what doesn’t work and working together to hold people accountable who are stealing these cars,” Weiser said.
“In fact, last week, someone tried to steal our car, and so, this is clearly a widespread challenge that we have to work on together, and we’re going to solve it by looking at data, not by baseless attacks.”
Locally, Aurora’s City Council has tried to address the problem of motor vehicle thefts with a mandatory minimum sentencing ordinance advanced by the conservative majority.
Some of the questions asked Tuesday had to do with police reform and how aggressive Weiser and Kellner were willing to be in their pursuit of accountability for law enforcement.
The attorney general’s office has a unique relationship with the Aurora Police Department in particular because of the consent decree agreement reached between Aurora police, firefighters and the state last year.
The consent decree establishes mandatory police and fire reforms for Aurora to implement, based on the results of an investigation by Weiser’s office which found that, prior to and after the death of Elijah McClain, police were using force disproportionately against people of color and paramedics administered sedatives inappropriately.
Weiser mentioned the decree as a specific example of how representatives of the criminal justice system were being held accountable for misbehavior.
He also pointed to his office’s recent investigation into victims’ rights violations

While a real estate developer said last week that local regulations are setting reasonable expectations for metro district-funded projects, an attorney warned Aurora’s City Council that they had “rubber-stamped” potential billions in dubious debt.
Metropolitan districts are local government boards that have the power to levy taxes on property within their boundaries, often housing developments, to fund the construction and upkeep of roads, parks and other public infrastructure.
Aurora’s council discussed the pros and cons of such districts in Aurora during an Aug. 1 study session that included Brian Matise, a lawyer with experience litigating metro district issues and a director on the governing board of Tollgate Crossing Metropolitan District No. 2 in Aurora. The information-only review also included Christopher Fellows, master developer of the Painted Prairie neighborhood near the Gaylord Rockies hotel.
Districts are frequently established by developers, which use them as a mechanism for funding infrastructure in new neighborhoods by borrowing against their projected property tax base.
But the entities are controversial because of well-documented abuses. In some cases, developers have saddled residents with untenable amounts of debt while establishing multi-district structures that deny homebuyers a say in taxation. In others, developers have sold high-interest bonds to themselves, allowing them to profit as district debt balloons.
When sponsors want to establish a district, they first have to get the approval of the jurisdiction where the district would be located — the City of Aurora, for example, when a district is within city limits. That means city councils such as Aurora’s have the power and responsibility to provide oversight and protect future taxpayers.
Matise raised the alarm on some specific developments approved by council, such as Aurora Highlands, served by six metro districts that have each been authorized to issue up to $4 billion in debt.
He suggested homes in a development should have no more than $40,000 or so of infrastructure costs associated with them — in the case of the 23,000 homes that Aurora Highlands developers said in 2017 would be built, that would work out to around $920 million. More than four times that amount was borrowed by developers.
“This is an excessive amount of debt, (and) I think the City Council needs to ask, ‘Why are we approv-
ing $4 billion of debt for a district where this is going to total perhaps millions of dollars or hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt per home?’” Matise said.
Aurora Highlands developers have for years stood behind their financing plans, approved after customary review by the city’s planning departments, planning commission and city council.
Matise also described a “dangerous trend” of special districts not paying down bond interest until the total amount of compounded interest eclipses the principal by millions of dollars.
Matise specifically mentioned that the South Aurora Regional Improvement Authority, a cooperative of metro districts that partner on transportation projects, is slated to pay around $17.1 million in interest on the approximately $11.2 million principal of its Series 2018 Special Revenue Bonds by the time the bonds reach maturity in 2041.
“That’s an excessive interest cost. That is not economically practical, and I submit that these kinds of models are setting the districts up for failure. They’re setting taxpayers up for an outrageous cost,” he said.
Matise advised the council of several indicators local governments can use when determining whether the debt being requested by a district is reasonable.
In addition to evaluating the infrastructure cost per housing unit, he said cities should ensure that the district’s debt is equal to no more than half its estimated assessed value at buildout and that the boundaries of all proposed districts are well-defined to preserve the integrity of tax base estimates.
Mayor Mike Coffman asked Matise and Fellows whether the city’s model service plan — which notably caps the levy for debt repayment at 50 mills, with a maximum debt term of 40 years — was doing an effective job of promoting accountability.
Matise was doubtful, saying he believed developers were getting away with satisfying the bare minimums of the model service plan while withholding the information needed for the council to determine whether a district is truly viable for residents.
“I think the model service plan has led to complacency and rubber-stamping by City Council, without careful regard for the metrics I cite,” Matise said. “In other words, if you dot the i’s, cross the t’s, fill in the model service plan, and you don’t even include a detailed financial plan, (and) you don’t even include a detailed infrastructure plan, it gets approved by council.”
Fellows differed from Matise, saying he thought the city’s model service plan had a positive impact because of the fact that it establishes a clear set of ground rules for developers.
“It’s made it very easy for developers, and applicants, and those trying to create a district in Aurora. It’s made it very easy for them to know what the rules are going to be,
and what the expectations are, and it made it very simple to write a service plan,” Fellows said.
The developer spoke more warmly of metro district financing than Matise, describing the funding model as “incredibly efficient (and) incredibly safe.”
In a slide citing data from data firm Refinitiv, Bloomberg and the State of Colorado, Fellows reported that special district debt has a default rate of less than 1% and said the rate of default where lenders lost money was “in the hundredths of 1% range.”
Fellows described regional transportation projects undertaken with the help of metro district funding, including work on Aerotropolis Parkway, 64th Avenue from E-470 to Jackson Gap Street and interchanges along Interstate 70 and E-470.
“I think there are a lot of regional benefits with districts that come with the ability to finance things in a positive and cost-effective manner,” he said.
“I think districts are very important,” said Fellows. “I think they can increase the quality of amenities and improvements in a community. I think they can help finance regional improvements and regional projects which are otherwise not financeable. I think they can help finance projects that need financing or maintenance over a long period of time.”
Dave Gruber, a council alumnus who also previously served on the governing board of the metro district that covers his southeast Aurora neighborhood, later said he believes that metro district financing offers an effective path to reducing housing costs.
“I think that there are risks involved, but they do significantly lower the prices of houses in Aurora,” Gruber said, mentioning as one risk the fact that a district is obligated to pay back its debt in a certain timeframe.
He also said he believed the city’s model service plan has had a “tremendous” positive impact in terms of promoting transparency and accountability, calling it “one of the best in Colorado.”
When Councilmember Juan Marcano asked Matise if he thought it would be useful to set a hard limit on the amount of debt allowed based on the number of housing units planned in Aurora metro districts pending approval, Matise said he did not and that he believed the council should have the final say on whether a district is worthy of approval.
“I believe it is the responsibility of City Council to make that determination as to whether or not the debt can be discharged,” Matise said, but suggested that developers be required to include a breakdown of the average amount of infrastructure debt owed by each property.
Because the discussion was information-only, no vote was taken or planned.
— MAX LEVY, Sentinel Staff Writerby the DA’s office serving the San Luis Valley, which led to that DA’s resignation last month. Weiser also said his office is also redesigning police training to prioritize de-escalation.
Kellner said he, too, believed it is incumbent on the state’s POST board to develop clear training standards for police. He said he was already holding police accountable as district attorney, mentioning the case of John Haubert, a former Aurora cop charged with felony assault and menacing for pistol-whipping and choking a man last year.
The DA said he is prosecuting Haubert’s case “to the fullest extent of the law.” While after the forum Kellner said he recognized the ongoing need for reform at APD, he told the audience at the forum that “writ large, I think police in Colorado do a dangerous and difficult job, and they do it to the best of their abilities.”
The consent decree leaves open the possibility that it can be modified if both the city and the state attorney general’s office sign off on the changes, but Kellner also said after the forum that he did not have plans to change the terms of the agreement.
On the topic of opioids and addiction, virtually plaguing Colorado currently, Weiser described his efforts along with other attorneys general across the country to finalize settlements that could net Colorado more than $500 million from companies involved in the sale of prescription painkillers.
Weiser said the settlement dollars are being used to open up the San Luis Valley’s first opioid treatment center. He also described his office’s involvement in enforcement actions against drug traffickers and said he would advocate for more resources for interdiction.
“But that’s not going to be enough. We can’t arrest our way out of this crisis. We also need to give people pathways to recovery, to treatment, and I’ve done that,” Weiser said.
Weiser and Kellner had a brief back-and-forth after Kellner said the settlement money was insufficient and accused Weiser of settling for less due to the influence of pharmaceutical industry lobbyists, which Weiser called a “baseless attack.”
Kellner also described indictments and other efforts to curb drug trafficking in the 18th Judicial District, which led to the seizure of hundreds of thousands of illegal opioid pills along with firearms and explosives.
He said he would use “every tool in my toolbox as a prosecutor and as a crimefighter” to punish traffickers, including the state’s grand jury system. He also mentioned that his office opened a new diversion office in Aurora last year that in part serves adults dealing with drug addiction.
“We’ve got folks who are struggling with addiction that need
help … but then we also need to be realistic about where this poison is coming from, and how it’s getting here, and then we need a crimefighter, somebody like me, to actually tackle it on a statewide basis,” he said.
When asked whether they supported the state’s so-called “red flag law” — which allows family members, roommates and law enforcement to petition a court to order a person who they believe poses a threat to turn over their firearms — Weiser and Kellner both said they did.
Kellner said he has told other Republicans that declaring a county to be a “Second Amendment sanctuary” where the red flag law will not be enforced is contrary to the rule of law.
“We just passed 10 years since the Aurora theater massacre. I’m often asked that question, ‘What would you do?’ And I have to say this truthfully: Look, if I knew that there was a man with orange hair who was threatening to kill a crowd full of people in my community, and I had some way to prevent that from happening, you’re darn right I’d use that tool,” Kellner said, adding that the law was an effective public safety tool, even though he thought it could be “improved.”
The two also fielded questions on abortion access in light of the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and the Colorado General Assembly’s passage of the Reproductive Health Equity Act earlier this year.
Weiser said he would uphold RHEA and sue any county trying to block abortion access, and would also defend any person sued by another state for providing or receiving an abortion in Colorado.
“I was trained by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and the concept of equal protection under the law and reproductive healthcare, whose decisions should be made by women, is something that is deeply in my commitment, and I will continue to fight hard to protect reproductive rights,” he said.
Kellner said he supported the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe and that he and his wife had decided they would not abort a child, but he said he was committed to upholding the legislature’s guarantee of abortion access.
“As somebody who supports the Dobbs decision returning this back to the states to make a decision, it’s also important to recognize that Colorado, through its legislature, has spoken on the issue,” he said. “And frankly the people have spoken on the issue multiple times at the ballot box, as well.”
Besides Kellner and Weiser, according to the Colorado Secretary of State’s website, Robert Barbrady of the American Constitution Party, libertarian William Robinson and independent Carter Rogers are also running for state attorney general. Colorado’s general election will take place Nov. 8.
The new prep athletic season is up and running with all sports allowed to practice officially Aug. 8, but there will be a little catching up to do in one area.
Legacy Stadium — one of the Cherry Creek School District’s two heavy-use district sites along with Stutler Bowl — will join the action a little later than usual.
BY COURTNEY OAKES Sports Editor
District athletic director Larry Bull said that work on the new track at the facility is continuing, which necessitates some changes in the early schedule. Over the summer, the track and turf were replaced, two jumping pits were added (and another moved) and some minor drainage issues were addressed.
Bull feels fortunate that he has a full group of returning athletic directors in Steve Carpenter at Cherokee Trail, Jason Wilkins at Cherry Creek, Vince Orlando at Eaglecrest along with Heather Nelsen (who has taken over the co-AD role with Orlando which was previously filled by Tanya Bond), Karl Buck at Overland and John Thompson at Smoky Hill.
That’s not the case for Aurora Public Schools Athletic Director Casey Powell, who has new ADs in place at Rangeview (Erick Swanson) and Vista PEAK (David Benedict), while Aurora Central (Ryan Widemon), Gateway (Paul Jefferson, who came on late last year) and Hinkley (Rodney Padilla) remain in place.
League, which is now up to 15 total schools in multiple classifications.
“I feel like it’s going to be a beneficial change for us,” Powell said.
Regis Jesuit’s athletic department is under the new leadership of Todd Schuler, who began as athletic director for the Boys and Girls divisions on July 1 after arriving from North Carolina.
One major change for Regis Jesuit this year will be that no tennis matches will be held on site, as the tennis courts on the west side of the campus were razed to make way for the construction of the school’s new Science & Innovation Center. The boys and girls teams will play at the Colorado Athletic Club Inverness in the interim.

When it is done, Legacy Stadium (located on the Cherokee Trail High School campus) can get back to being one of the fulcrums of activity for Aurora area schools in the district, which is what Bull is looking forward to most.
“There is excitement to get kids to compete and get them out there to be engaged, build relationships and work hard every day,” he said. “We’re pretty glad to get back up and running.”
Bull said the district’s participation numbers last season increased significantly from previous year — one that was heavily impacted by the coronavirus pandemic — and could rise again.
Other facilities changes in the district include the resurfacing of the basketball courts at several schools as well as the continued replacement of scoreboards, which began last year.
Powell feels good about the changes, however, as Benedict (who took over when John Sullivan took a job with the Colorado High School Activities Association) is already heavily invested in Vista PEAK, while Swanson is motivated to make the most of the job.
“I think they are both going to be able to fill big shoes rather quickly and they are ready to do great things,” Powell said.
The biggest changes — aside from digital display boards coming to gymnasiums and the refurbishment of the training and officials rooms at Aurora Public Schools Stadium — come in the shifting of leagues.
The EMAC dissolved after last season, leaving APS schools in need of new homes. Aurora Central had already moved to the Colorado League and Gateway has followed. Hinkley, Rangeview and Vista PEAK have joined the Denver Prep
New tennis courts are planned for the land the school acquired to the east of the current campus, the same tract where two multi-use fields will be built in the next two years according to Schuler, who arrives as many of the school’s programs adapt to new coaches.
One thing the local athletic directors — and those around the state — face as a universal challenge this season is the continued shortage of officials in a variety of sports. Retirements among a longstanding group of officials have hurt numbers, while new officials have been harder to come by given the harsh treatment they often receive from spectators as well as coaches and players in some instances.
Football schedules have been extremely impacted by the shortage, necessitating afternoon kickoffs to allow crews to do two games in one day, while crews for Friday night games are stretched extremely thin. Powell, who has just one district stadium to use, has scheduled multiple Saturday games in that vein.
The opening day of practice for fall prep sports arrived on Aug. 8 as teams in football, girls volleyball, boys soccer, softball, cross country, boys tennis, field hockey, gymnastics and Unified Bowling began to work towards the start of their respective regular seasons.

The fall prep sports season got into full swing Aug. 8, when the Colorado High School Activities Association allowed teams to begin practice.
A week after boys golfers began, the remainder of the fall sports — football, girls volleyball, boys soccer, softball, cross country, boys tennis, field hockey, gymnastics and Unified Bowling — kick off with tryouts and practices as they build towards the start of the regular season. Spirit teams also began practice on the same day.
For softball and boys tennis, it is a short wait, as they can begin contests Aug. 11. Others can begin to scrimmage Aug. 10 and all can open play on Aug. 18 save for football, which begins a week later.
The last fall season yielded a pair of state championships for Aurora programs, as the Grandview boys soccer and Regis Jesuit field hockey teams enter the 2022 campaign with the goal to defend titles. The Raiders have won the past two state titles, while the Wolves took the program’s first all-time Class 5A boys state crown in 2021.
The Grandview girls volleyball team finished as the 5A runner-up in 2021, marking a second straight second place finish, while the Cherokee Trail boys cross country team finished in third place in the 5A standings.
The Continental League boys golf season got underway Aug. 4 at sun-drenched Broken Tee Golf Course, where Regis Jesuit got off to a strong start.
Coach Craig Rogers’ Raiders — featuring two players who appeared in last season’s Class 5A state tournament — tied for second among 11 scoring teams with a team total of 302, the same as Highlands Ranch. Both teams finished seven strokes behind Rock Canyon, which also had the meet medalist in Nathan Kim, the only player to shoot under par with a 3-under 69.
One of those returning qualifiers for Regis Jesuit, senior Cole Dewey, got to 2-under after 10 holes and finished with a 1-over 73 that put him in a tie for fifth place individually. Fellow senior Colson Morley — who had a four-birdie round — was just a stroke behind that with a 74 that placed him ninth.
Seniors Eli Handler and Jake Irvine shot 76 and 79, respectively, to round out Regis Jesuit’s scoring, while sophomore Ryland Doolittle carded an 81.
The next Continental League tournament is scheduled for Aug. 10 at King’s Deer Golf Club.
For the fourth time, the Denver Broncos will team with the Colorado High School Activities Association to host a football and fall sports media day at Empower Field.
The event will take place Aug. 15 in the home venue of the Denver Broncos and will include the pres-
ence of 20 of Colorado’s top returning football teams (which have yet to be named). The football teams — as well as a variety of other invitees in fall sports and activities — will run through a press conference with questions asked by local media. Additionally, they will take a tour of Empower Field, have professional photos taken while in uniform and go through a social media training session with the Broncos.

Batteries are included in a new herd of school buses as the Aurora region rolls toward driving an EV more practical
BY SENTINEL STAFF WRITERS
Tuesday marked the first day back in school for Aurora Public Schools students, who after a summer away were ferried from their homes back to campus on the district’s many school buses. For some, it was also their first day riding an electric vehicle — APS purchased seven electric school buses this spring that are being rolled out for the current school year.
Elsewhere in Aurora, the city itself is working to help residents and visitors get a charge out of an EV commute in the region.
The buses were purchased with the help of grant money, and are the first steps in the district’s larger plan to improve its carbon footprint. The district also hopes to build a solar panel canopy at its transportation center and to install electric vehicle charging stations at some of its schools to help improve EV infrastructure throughout the city.
The district purchased the electric buses with the help of a grant program from the state designed to help get older diesel buses off the streets. APS qualified and received funding for seven buses and three chargers in seven receptacles.
Without the grant funding the buses would be hard, if not impossible to afford — each costs $369,789, compared to about $125,000 for a diesel bus and $145,000 for a diesel bus equipped with a wheelchair lift. Omar Espinal, the district’s fleet manager, said that with the grant the district paid about 20% of the total cost, making it possible for them to get a fleet of seven.
Aside from the fuel, the electric buses are largely the same as the rest of the district’s 146 buses, Espinal said, and transportation
staff are ready to drive them after a three-hour course over the summer.
The bus battery has an eight year warranty, and Espinal said it will depend on whether it’s more expensive to replace the battery or to get a new bus for what the replacement plan will be like. Diesel buses are replaced every 15 years or 150,000 miles. Luckily, clean energy technology is continuing to improve, so he hopes that the price of replacing the battery will decrease in the future.
The three front rows have three-point harnesses for transporting pre-K students, an added perk. And because they run on electricity, the vehicles are much quieter than normal school buses, which makes it easier for drivers to hear what’s going on.
“If you’re sitting in a traditional diesel bus, you can’t hear anybody past that second seat,” said Espinal.
The decrease in noise makes student management easier and keeps kids more relaxed.
“They tend to be more mellow,” he said.
The buses can charge fully in about an hour, Espinal said, and also have regenerative braking — once the battery is below a certain level, every time the driver hits the brake pedal it pumps juice back into the charging system.
Ultimately, APS’ goal is to charge the buses through clean energy as well. The district is exploring plans to build a solar panel canopy at its transportation center, which would provide enough power to charge all the district’s vehicles and hopefully some of the surrounding district buildings as well, which include Aurora Quest K-8 and Mosley P-8.
Marcus Harper, the district’s energy and building optimization coordinator, said the canopy is part of the district’s overall goal to reduce its carbon emissions.
“The end goal is to have zero emissions within part of the fleet and eventually the whole fleet,” he said.
Supply chain issues and rising costs due to inflation have slowed down the district’s plans, and the team is currently exploring what is most fiscally responsible, Harper said. A design should be finalized in about three to four months, at which point it would be presented to the school board for consideration.
Along with the canopy, Harper said the district hopes to install EV charging stations at schools that can be used by district employees, students and parents.
“The more affluent areas of town are more densely populated (with chargers) and when you get to Aurora and some other parts of Denver, it’s more sparsely populated,” he said. By installing public chargers, “we’re trying to be good community stewards.”
—CarinaJulig,SentinelStaffWriterCity of Aurora spokesman Michael Brannen wrote in an email that the city currently has 23 electric and hybrid cars, including three available for city business and 20 in use by the police and fire departments.
The city also partnered with Tynan’s Nissan Aurora between 2016 and 2018 to offer discounts on electric vehicles to the public, though the details of that partnership were not readily available, according to city spokesman Ryan Luby.
Statewide, Colorado has better EV infrastructure than many other states, according to Bonnie Trowbridge, executive director of Drive Clean Colorado. But the number of charging stations varies across the Denver metro area and Aurora is on the lower end of the spectrum.
“We have identified Aurora as having fewer chargers than other areas in the metro Denver area,” Trowbridge said.
According to Charge Hub, which
provides a map of EV charging locations across the nation, Aurora has 141 charging stations compared to 436 in Denver and 274 in Boulder.
Brannen said that the city itself operates 36 public charging stations, located at the Iliff Station Light Rail Parking Garage, City of Aurora Public Safety Training Center, Aurora Hyatt Regency and Conference Center Parking Garage and the Central Recreation Center.
Drive Clean Colorado works to identify gaps in EV infrastructure and to identify apartment buildings, shopping centers and other locations where an EV charging
station might be a good fit. If the site is interested, the organization provides coaching to help find grant funding and other resources to get a charging station installed. Trowbridge said this method has been successful in getting more stations installed in Aurora and across the region, particularly since so much grant funding is currently available.
“I hate the term ‘no-brainer’ but it really does make it easy for these companies to see the benefits,” she said.
Electric vehicles still make up a small percentage of cars on the road, with about 61,000 currently in use in Colo-
rado, according to Atlas Public Policy. However, Trowbridge said she is starting to see an increase in interest in EVs.
“We’re at this inflection point where we’re starting to see the adoption accelerate,” she said.
The spike in gas prices over the past several months was a draw for many, and Trowbridge said there is a “direct correlation” between the price of gas and people’s interest in EVs. The price of electricity is relatively stable, and she said that people pay the equivalent of about $1 a gallon for their fuel.
Along with their benefits to the con-
sumer, electric vehicles are touted as a more environmentally conscious mode of transportation since they don’t use gas. Dave Sabados, a spokesperson for the Regional Air Quality Council, said that vehicles and other small engines like lawnmowers are some of the biggest contributors to ozone pollution, which is heaviest in the summer.
“If it’s hot, not rainy and a bright beautiful day it’s probably not a good day for ozone,” Sabados said.
The Front Range has made improvements on ozone pollution over the past several years, Sabados said, in part due to the enforcement of stronger pollution standards and an increase in alternative transportation. Sabados said that biking, taking public transportation and switching to public transportation all play a part.
“Ultimately, we need a mix of all those things,” he said.
The Council is involved in a number of initiatives to promote clean energy, including encouraging people to switch to electric lawnmowers — movers are even worse for the environment than car engines, Sabados said — and to take more public transit. He touted RTD’s “zero fare for better air” campaign where all rides are free during the month of August as a great step towards reducing pollution. But he acknowledged that many people, especially in Colorado, still need to rely on private vehicles to get around.
Most people who have an electric vehicle won’t need to charge it during the day unless they’re driving a long distance, he said, and can just charge it in their home overnight. However, he said that putting in more charging stations helps people when making a decision.
“That’s always people’s hesitancy when talking about EVs, is there going to be a charging station where I’m going?” he said.
Along with putting in more charging stations in municipalities, he said that making sure they’re available at destination sites such as state parks and mountain communities.
“It’s that peace of mind for folks,” he said.
—Max Levy, Sentinel Staff WriterA tax credit of up to $7,500 could be used to defray the cost of an electric vehicle under the Inflation Reduction Act now moving toward final approval in Congress.
But the auto industry is warning that the vast majority of EV purchases won’t qualify for a tax credit that large.
That’s mainly because of the bill’s requirement that, to qualify for the credit, an electric vehicle must contain a battery built in North America with minerals mined or recycled on the continent.
And those rules become more stringent over time — to the point where, in a few years, it’s possible that no EVs would qualify for the tax credit, says John Bozzella, CEO of the Alliance of Automotive Innovation, a key industry trade group.
As of now, the alliance estimates that about 50 of the 72 electric, hydrogen or plug-in hybrid models that are sold in the United States wouldn’t meet the requirements.
“The $7,500 credit might exist on paper,” Bozzella said in a statement, “but no vehicles will qualify for this purchase over the next few years.”
The idea behind the requirement is to incentivize domestic manufacturing and mining, build a robust battery supply chain in North America and lessen the industry’s dependence on overseas supply chains that could be subject to disruptions.
Production of lithium and other minerals that are used to produce EV batteries is now dominated by China. And the world’s leading producer of cobalt, another component of the EV batteries, is the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Though electric vehicles are part of a global effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, they require metallic elements known as rare earths, found in places like Myanmar, where an Associated Press investigation has found that the push for green energy has led to environmental destruction.
Under the $740 billion economic package, which passed the Senate over the weekend and is nearing approval in the House, the tax credits would take effect next year. For an EV buyer to qualify for the full credit, 40% of the metals used in a vehicle’s battery must come from North America. By 2027, that required threshold would reach 80%.
If the metals requirement isn’t met, the automaker and its buyers would be eligible for half the tax credit, $3,750.
A separate rule would require that half the batteries’ value must be manufactured or assembled in the North America.
If not, the rest of the tax credit would be lost. Those requirements also grow stricter each year, eventually reaching 100% in 2029. Still another rule would require that the EV itself be manufactured in North America, thereby excluding from the tax credit any vehicles made overseas.
Automakers generally don’t release where their components come from or how much they cost. But it’s likely that some versions of Tesla’s Model Y SUV and Model 3 car, the Chevrolet Bolt car and SUV and the Ford Mustang Mach E would be eligible for at least part of the credit. All those vehicles are assembled in North America.
The tax credit would be available only to couples with incomes of $300,000 or less or single people with income of $150,000 or less. And any trucks or SUVs with sticker prices above $80,000 or cars above $55,000 wouldn’t be eligible.
There’s also a new $4,000 credit for buyers of used EVs, a provision that could help modest-income households go electric. — The Associated Press
more disturbing journal articles about human-made impurities showing up in samples around the world. So much plastic is produced each year, for everything from water bottles to clothing to industrial goods to packaging, and so little is recycled, that it bumps and shreds and chips and blows and drifts everywhere.
Plastics are fragmented, but never degraded, at least not in a timespan relevant to life on this planet.
“The world produced 348 million metric tons of plastic in 2017, and this number grows every year by about 5%,” begins a study by Utah researchers published in the journal Science in 2020. “A large proportion of this production accumulates as waste in the environment, and progressive fragmentation” sends the microplastics abroad on the wind, the study said.
The abstract title of their report is “Here, there, and everywhere.”
“Eleven billion metric tons of plastic are projected to accumulate in the environment by 2025,” they add.
The Colorado report’s authors point out that before they retrained more powerful microscopes on their past samples, researchers had found airborne microplastics elsewhere in the western United States, on Arctic ice floes, and high in the Pyrenees and Alps.
“Recently, microplastics have been identified in human blood and lung tissue,” the Colorado study adds, in scientific deadpan.
Standing atop Loveland Pass in mid-July, Reynolds said he had noticed straight lines and unnatural filament shapes on some slides in his first pass through some of Derry’s dust samples, but had dismissed them as microbes that can assume similar shapes. After reading enough microplastics studies from other continents, he
realized he and others had missed something.
Derry at first wondered if they had accidentally contaminated the samples. Maybe the straight lines were stray, infinitesimal threads from one of his countless shell jackets or skiing gaiters.
But as the Colorado researchers went back through with more powerful tools, the plastics were unmistakable. And yet still shocking, at least to Derry, who lives for work-related backcountry ski runs around Silverton.
“There’s no place that’s safe from our influence and contamination of the Earth,” Derry said.
Possible contributors to the microplastics seem endless once you start thinking about how they got to 11,000 feet, Derry said. The snow and avalanche center has a Colorado Dust-on-Snow Program with sampling sites that sit on passes like Berthoud, Rabbit Ears, Hoosier, McClure and Wolf Creek.
He suspects tires wearing away constantly on mountain highways, and even drifting clouds of industrial and consumer microplastics swept into the atmosphere from municipal wastewater biosolids spread on Eastern Plains farms.
The samples in the new Colorado study went through 2016, and the researchers are now seeking samples from more recent snow surveys and new regions. Perhaps the only really useful function of work conferences, Reynolds said, is that after presenting a new paper, everybody in the audience sends you samples.
The Colorado researchers said they saw samples over enough years to make them suspect the microplastics problem is getting worse, though they can’t be conclusive yet on this point.
Dozens of samples from water years 2015 and 2016 — water years begin in October to better track one winter’s snowpack and melt — found the frequency of mi-
river basins. How much of the microplastic ends up at the intake valves for a city water supply? And does water treatment take it all out?
“We rely on that water, and these are impurities that we don’t really know much about,” Fassnacht said. “We are just starting to evaluate and measure how much is there.”
There are likely to be a series of long-term studies coming out of the microplastics revelations, he said. A model could be the decadeslong measuring of atmospheric pollution at Loch Vale, in the heart of Rocky Mountain National Park, where researchers have measured excess nitrogen deposited from industrial, automobile and agricultural pollution on the Front Range.
River basin.
Denver Water said it is closely following what it calls an “emerging issue” with microplastics in runoff. Agency officials said they would add monitoring, watershed management and treatment if needed to ensure “Denver’s tap water always meets or goes above and beyond” strict federal water quality standards.
— Try not to think about what’s underfoot
Geologists live to learn what they are stepping on.
croplastics at the 11 Upper Colorado River Basin sites were greater than in 2013 and 2014. That doesn’t mean the researchers are ready to conclude the tiny plastic fragments are torching snow banks like a hot black battery pack. They know impurities are bad, but they need to study more about plastics’ absorption or reflection of light, they said.
“Whether or not our observations indicate an increasing influence of microplastics on snow-surface albedo remains an open question,” they conclude.
But it all has to go somewhere, right? The snow melts. Faster than ever, according to the original research that led to the microplastics discoveries. So what happens to all those microscopic shreds of petroleum-based fibers? And of course they’re not just getting deposited up high during winter snow and wind storms. Any spring or summer storm is dropping more microplastic straight onto the plants and dirt.
Scientists from any number of fields are now sorting through microplastics studies from the high country and plotting followup research, CSU’s Fassnacht said.
The microplastics wash downhill and end up in mountain streams for wildlife to drink, or swim and breed in. What happens inside animal bodies, if anything? Is more microplastic worse?
Upstream in the food chain, do tundra plants and streamside plants take up the microplastics through their roots? How does it impact their growth? What happens when animals eat them?
And then, of course, there’s the downstream questions. Front Range cities pride themselves on basing their drinking water supplies on snowmelt from the Colorado, Arkansas and South Platte
“We need to look at this as a system, and how does it move through the system,” Fassnacht said. “Because we may be taking most of it out of the drinking water. But if we’re eating the fish in the rivers …”
Research on the potential toxicity of microplastics in water appears to be in its infancy. A 2019 World Health Organization metastudy found the tiny shards and fibers everywhere in water supplies and wastewater effluent. But the report also said “routine monitoring of microplastics in drinking-water is not recommended at this time, as there is no evidence to indicate a human health concern.” Water treatment agencies should never take their eye off the ball of the constant and quantifiable dangers of dangerous microbes, the WHO said.
Besides, the WHO concluded, “it is likely humans have ingested plastic particles for decades as a result of widespread contact with plastics in household objects including cutting boards, food packaging and direct contamination in air and food.” The WHO recommended far more research into both the quantity and the potential impacts of microplastics in the water supply.
“Even if you aren’t surprised to hear it, it’s still depressing,” Derry said, of reading through international reports.
California, as it is wont to do, is regulating first, and asking questions later.
High Country News detailed California’s 2021 moves to require drinking water measurements, but noted the microplastics field “is still in its infancy. No one knows how widespread microplastics in California’s drinking water really are. There isn’t even a standardized method to test for them. And no one knows what dose may be ‘safe’ to consume, since the human health effects are largely unknown.”
Count Aurora Water in the tooearly-to-say category. Spokesman
Greg Baker said Aurora is not testing for microplastics in its high country water sources around Leadville and in the Arkansas
On hikes and other outings, Reynolds brings a magnetic susceptibility meter the size of a wallet, to hover over snow dust layers or trailside rocks. With a click, Reynolds sees the level of iron oxide arrayed before him, and can make an educated guess on how deep into Utah a given dusty layer came from.
After Reynolds and Derry met on Loveland Pass in mid-July to talk microplastics, Reynolds put the meter in his pocket, slung on a backpack, and hiked straight up the ridge toward Mount Sniktau. He spent most of the hike thinking about oxygen, or lack thereof, at 11,990 feet. But the persistent microplastics questions returned when he was back in his car.
How much of the potentially toxic shred is out there? Will Derry find much more in the samples he’s taken since 2017?
Will scientists zero in on where all the plastic is coming from, and will that lead to ways to stop it?
How toxic might the fibers and shards prove to plants, to wildlife, to humans?
In microplastics, as in all of science, Reynolds said, “I am continuously humbled by what I don’t know.”
Drive down E-470 and you might catch a glimpse of the newest — and one of the largest — pieces of public art in the city of Aurora.
The statue “Life Blood” by Arkansas-based artist Hunter Brown was installed last week, and is part of a series of more than two dozen planned public art installations throughout the new development that will be installed over the next several years.
BY CARINAThe abstract sculpture was installed by crane on Aug. 1, at the roundabout on Aurora Highlands Parkway just past the planned community’s signature clocktower. The Parkway follows the floodplain that runs through the development, which will be transformed into Highlands Creek Park, a two-mile long parkway following the creek with a cycling/walking trail, picnic areas, playgrounds and other features throughout.
The park will also include 25 pieces of public art along the two-mile trail, with Life Blood being the first that residents and visitors will see upon entering the development.
The 8,500-pound statue stands 28 feet tall (34 feet with the base) and contains two football fields worth of welded metal, according to artist Hunter Brown. Brown created the sculpture over the course of five months at his Little Rock, Ark. studio, Innovative Sculpture Design.
He and his team drove it more than 1,100 miles to Aurora. The sculpture was attached to a
flatbed truck that had to be specifically measured to fit through underpasses on the trip.
“It’s like playing chess,” Brown said of the logistics that went into moving the sculpture.
He said he specifically created Life Blood to look interesting from all angles, since it is located in a roundabout. While as a piece of abstract art its meaning is open to interpretation, he said he was inspired by a sense of community while creating it.
“I wanted to push that idea of togetherness,” he said.
Brown has site-based sculptures in over 25 other states, but this is his first work of art in Colorado. Along with creating Life Blood, Brown will have several other pieces installed in Highlands and is the art coordinator for the entire development.
Carla Ferreira, director of on-site development and principal for the Highlands, said that the artists work in different styles but were selected to complement each other.
“All the artists are finding something in common that makes it symbiotic, but their mediums are different,” Ferreira said.
Earlier this summer several works of art by Olivia Steele were put in place at the start of the development and along the path. Steele creates signs that look like road signs but have positive messages and other types of word art on that.
Steele’s signs in Highlands include the sayings, “happiness is only real when shared,” “em-
brace the mystery” and a bilingual sign that says “If not now, when?” in English on one side and in Spanish on the other.
The next pieces of art to be installed will be several totem-like sculptures from artist Lisa Solberg, which will be put in place this fall. Solberg’s sculptures will be placed right next to the creek, and are designed out of materials that can be submerged in water in case of flood.
The path will have several pedestrian tunnels, which will feature sayings including “the only way out is through” in neon lights and other art on the walls and ceilings.
Solberg is based in New York City, and Steele is based in Berlin. The Highlands will also install art from Daniel Popper, a South African artist. Ferreira said that she wanted the art at the Highlands to represent a global community and to feature artists who are younger.
Ferreira said that public art has always been a part of the vision for the Highlands. Initially the art was going to be in separate locations throughout the 4,000-acre development, but later planners decided to put the art along the park trail.
The park was modeled after the Highline in New York City and will also be similar to the Cherry Creek Bike Path. Ferreira hopes that the park will be a source of enjoyment for people who live in the community and serve as a draw for people who live elsewhere in the area.
“This is really a permanent art gallery that’s free to the public,” she said.

Long before Aurora was a city, before Colorado was a state and before pioneers ventured across the West, 20 million to 30 million bison roamed the land. Then came the settlers, and extinction for the native grazers neared. The Lakota people called bison “tatanka,” which were an important symbol to the indigenous peoples’ culture. As a part of the Aurora History Museum’s “Mosaic of Cultures: Aurora’s Mexican Community” Artist Arturo Garcia, who was born in Jalisco, Mexico, and now owns a studio in Denver, captures the relationship between the bison and the people who first called this land home through a series of paintings. “This exhibition tells the visual story of a significant event in our nation’s history, and I am grateful to have Mr. Garcia’s work on display to share with our museum visitors,” museum director T. Scott Williams says of the exhibition.
This is the last week to view the exhibition, so be sure to make a visit if this has been on your list.

AVISO DE HALLAZGO SIN IMPACTO
SIGNIFICATIVO Y AVISO DE INTENTO DE SOLICITAR LIBERACIÓN DE FONDOS
03 de agosto de 2022
División de Desarrollo Comunitario de la Ciudad de Aurora 15151 E. Alameda Pkwy Aurora, CO 80017 303-739-7921
Este aviso deberá satisfacer dos requisitos de procedimiento separados pero relacionados para las actividades que llevará a cabo la División de Desarrollo Comunitario de la Ciudad de Aurora.
SOLICITUD DE LIBERACIÓN DE FONDOS
El 29 de agosto de 2022 o alrededor de esa fecha, la Ciudad de Aurora presentará una solicitud a HUD para la liberación de los fondos de HOME en virtud de la Ley de Inversiones HOME, enmendada. Este compromiso será para la Autoridad de Vivienda del desarrollo de viviendas multifamiliares Peoria Crossing II de la Ciudad de Aurora y ha solicitado hasta $1,000,000 en fondos HOME para Peoria Crossing II, que se ubicará en la mitad vacante de la esquina noreste de 3002 Peoria St., Aurora, CO. 80010. El Proyecto Peoria Crossing II de la Autoridad de Vivienda de la Ciudad de Aurora será la fase II de Peoria Crossing y agregará 72 unidades adicionales a las 82 unidades existentes que se completaron en la primera fase. El costo total del proyecto será de aproximadamente $35,000,000 y las unidades adicionales ayudarán a abordar las necesidades de vivienda asequible de la ciudad de Aurora como se aborda en el Plan Consolidado de la Ciudad.
Las actividades propuestas han requerido una Evaluación Ambiental bajo las regulaciones de HUD en 24 CFR Parte 58 de los requisitos de la Ley Nacional de Política Ambiental (NEPA). Un Registro de Revisión Ambiental (ERR) que documenta las determinaciones ambientales para este proyecto está archivado en la División de Desarrollo Comunitario de la Ciudad de Aurora, 15151 E. Alameda Pkwy, Aurora, Colorado, y puede examinarse o copiarse los días de semana de 8 a. m. a 5 p. m.
HALLAZGO SIN IMPACTO SIGNIFICA-
TIVO
La Ciudad de Aurora ha determinado que el proyecto no tendrá un impacto significativo en el entorno humano. Por lo tanto, no se requiere una Declaración de Impacto Ambiental bajo la Ley Nacional de Política Ambiental de 1969 (NEPA). La información adicional del proyecto se encuentra en el Registro de revisión ambiental (ERR) archivado en la Ciudad de Aurora, División de Desarrollo Comunitario, 15151 E. Alameda Pkwy, Aurora, CO. y se puede examinar o copiar los días de semana de 8 a. m. a 5 p. m.
COMENTARIOS PÚBLICOS
Cualquier individuo, grupo o agencia puede enviar comentarios por escrito sobre la ERR a Alicia Montoya, City of Aurora, Community Development Division, 15151 E. Alameda, Aurora, Colorado, 80012; o amontoya@auroragov.org. Si tiene preguntas e información adicional, comuníquese con Alicia Montoya a la direc-
ción anterior o llame al 303-739-7900. Todos los comentarios recibidos antes del 28 de agosto de 2022 serán considerados por la Ciudad de Aurora antes de autorizar la presentación de una solicitud de liberación de fondos. Los comentarios deben especificar a qué Aviso se dirigen.
CERTIFICACIÓN AMBIENTAL
La Ciudad de Aurora certifica a HUD que Alicia Montoya, en su calidad de Gerente de la División de Desarrollo Comunitario, consiente en aceptar la jurisdicción de los Tribunales Federales si se inicia una acción para hacer cumplir las responsabilidades en relación con el proceso de revisión ambiental y que estas responsabilidades han sido satisfechas. La aprobación de la certificación por parte del estado de HUD cumple con sus responsabilidades conforme a la NEPA y las leyes y autoridades relacionadas, y permite que el nombre del beneficiario de la subvención utilice los fondos del Programa.

REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS
On or about August 29, 2022 the City of Aurora will submit a request to HUD for the release of HOME funds under the HOME Investment Act, as amended. This undertaking will be for the Elevation Community Land Trust for the acquisition of 12 completed modular homes Emporia Duplex located at Emporia Street and 25th Avenue, Aurora, CO 80010, in which will then be sold to income-qualified households under the community land trust model and will be funded with up to a $1,000,000 of the City of Aurora’s HOME funding. Total funding for this project will be approximately $5,000,000 and the additional units will help address the city of Aurora’s affordable housing needs as addressed in the City’s Consolidated Plan.
The activities proposed have required an Environmental Assessment under HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58 from National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requirements. An Environmental Review Record (ERR) that documents the environmental determinations for this project is on file at City of Aurora, Community Development Division, 15151 E.

Comments should specify which Notice they are addressing.
The City of Aurora certifies to HUD that Alicia Montoya in her capacity as Community Development Division Manager consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. HUD’s State’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows the name of grant recipient to use Program funds.
OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS
HUD will accept objections to its release of fund and the City of Aurora certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of the City of Aurora; (b) the City of Aurora has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the development process have committed funds, incurred costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by HUD; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted via email in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to Noemi Ghirghi, Acting CPD Region VIII Director, at CPD_ COVID-19OEE-DEN@hud.gov.

Note: The fifteen or eighteen-day public comment periods are the minimum time periods required by regulation prior to submission of a Request for Release of Funds and Certification (form HUD-7015.15) to HUD. The Responsible Entity may choose to allow a longer comment period. 24 CFR Part 58 requires, at Section 58.46, “Time delays for exceptional circumstances,” a 30-day comment period for controversial or unique projects or those similar to projects normally requiring preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement. The fifteen-day objection period is a statutory requirement. The objection period follows the submission date specified in the Notice or the actual date of receipt by HUD, whichever is later.
