Steamboat Springs City Council will take its first look today at an ordinance regulating medical marijuana dispensaries. Under the draft ordinance, medical marijuana dispensaries would be allowed as a permitted use, with conditions, in some commercial and industrial zone districts, but they could not be located on the pedestrian level

on Lincoln Avenue or Yampa Street. Dispensaries are popping up in several Western Slope communities, and the ordinance being considered by council was spurred by several inquiries to the city by people hoping to open dispensaries in Steamboat. The city enacted a 90-day moratorium on such businesses last month, but not before two dispensaries opened their doors.

July sales tax dips by $300,000 Year-to-date decline passes $2M mark Brandon Gee

PILOT & TODAY STAFF

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

Year-to-date decreases in the city of Steamboat Springs’ sales tax revenues passed the $2 million mark in July, but the rate of decline was not as severe as June’s 20 percent drop. City sales tax fell $314,762, or 18.2 percent, in July compared with the same month last year. Year-to-date, the city has collected $10.2 million in sales tax, a 16.8 percent decrease from the $12.2 million collected through the first seven months of 2008. While the percentage decline in sales backed off a bit from June’s peak, July is a busier month and the dollar-amount decrease was nearly the same. “It’s somewhat encouraging that we’re not continuing to see the momentum shifting downward,” Steamboat Springs City Councilman Jon Quinn said. “I’ll take that as a glass halffull.” Sales tax is the city’s primary source of revenue. City Revenue Supervisor Kim Weber said the city still is within the range of massive budget cuts it made earlier this year to balance its budget. Those cuts allowed for an 18 to 19 percent decrease in general fund sales tax revenue this year. General fund sales tax revenue is down 14.1 percent through July. The city’s urban renewal authority at the

base of Steamboat Ski Area has absorbed the remainder of sales tax loss. “We’re hoping that June was the peak, but we’re just waiting to see what each month brings,” Weber said. With a sales decrease of just 9.1 percent, downtown fared much better than other areas of the city in July. The city collected $322,497 in sales tax downtown in July compared to $354,776 in 2008. “We’ve got a lot going on downtown, and there’s not a lot going on in other places, I guess,” said Tracy Barnett, of Mainstreet Steamboat Springs, who noted events such as the recently concluded Farmers Market on Saturdays and individual businesses’ specials. “I think the merchants are really reaching out. The restaurants are having amazing specials. … I think they’re doing everything they can to entice people to come eat, come shop, come do something.” Western Steamboat fared the worst by area, with a 35.4 percent decrease in sales activity. By category, liquor stores and restaurants fared better than other businesses with 6.5 percent and 8.8 percent decreases in

In Hayden, Superintendent Greg Rockhold said a middle school student stayed home Monday with a suspected case of swine flu. No cases were reported in the South Routt School District as of Monday, Superintendent Scott Mader said. Because it’s so early in the flu season, physicians are operating on the assumption that patients who test positive for Influenza A have the H1N1 strain, said Dot Haberlan, team leader for school health services for Routt County’s public schools. She said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends additional testing for H1N1, which is done at a state lab, only if the patient has been hospitalized or is severely ill. So JOHN F.

Riverside returns to normalcy

Mother always told you to eat a good breakfast.

Neighborhood residents can continue to self-maintain park STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

City officials have decided to step away from their scuffle with residents of the Riverside neighborhood in western Steamboat concerning a small piece of city-owned property. About 0.5 acres of the 4-acre parcel have been voluntarily mowed and maintained for years by the residents, who use the area as a community park. The dispute arose June 9, when the Steamboat Springs Police Department ticketed Riverside resident Dave Epstein for mowing down willow shrubs on the 4-acre parcel with a heavyduty bush mower. The willows were growing in an arc from the Yampa River into an area that residents say they have

maintained for decades. In addition to ticketing Epstein, the city reviewed the entire mowed area and recommended it be reduced in size. The city also removed a salvaged bench installed by Epstein near the river because it didn’t meet the city’s design standards and management practices. After further review of the situation, and a contentious meeting with neighborhood residents Aug. 26, the city’s Parks and Recreation Commission has settled on a return to the status quo. “Parks and Recreation Commission, based on the public meeting and all the input, has supported allowing the neighborhood, if they’re interested, to keep following the pattern they have been mowing,” Parks,

Open Space and Recreational Services Director Chris Wilson said. Riverside resident Marty Boomgarden, who said he has mowed the field voluntarily for about 28 years, has been offered a permit to mow the area. “I am continuing to mow, as I have in the past,” Boomgarden said. “Everything has been resolved. We will go back to what we were doing.” Additionally, City Manager Jon Roberts said he has made a recommendation to the city’s prosecutor that Epstein’s citation be dropped, which he expects to occur at Epstein’s next scheduled municipal court appearance. “I think the Parks and RecSee Riverside, page 12

School Board approves 700 agreement Members seeking clarification about transfer fee exemption Jack Weinstein

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

The Steamboat Springs School Board approved a “covenant” agreement Monday night with the developers of Steamboat 700 to share the $30 million costs of a new school and high school expansion needed to accommodate student growth as a result of the proposed development west of Steamboat city limits. Board members approved the binding legal document by a 30 vote — board member John DeVincentis was absent, and board President Robin Crossan showed up to the meeting after the vote — pending clarification from the district’s attor-

ney about one of the real-estate transfer fee exemptions. According to the agreement, Steamboat 700 will pay 47.2 percent of the costs, in today’s dollars, to construct the estimated $25 million K-8 school and $5 million to expand Steamboat Springs High School by 17,000 square feet. The development’s contributions will be funded by a half-percent real estate transfer fee that would be imposed until the developer’s share of the cost is met, regardless of how long it takes. Board member Laura Anderson asked that Superintendent Shalee Cunningham clarify whether the developers should be exempt from paying that fee on sales of large-tract subdivision parcels, which could be sold to

other developers. Anderson said she thought those parcels shouldn’t be exempt from the real estate transfer fee and the district should get a percentages of the fees associated with those sales. Also according to the agreement, the district would not be responsible for the costs associated with an off-site pedestrian underpass at Routt County Road 42. And it indicated that any future owner of the development would have to continue imposing the real-estate transfer fee. As part of its action Monday, the School Board agreed it wouldn’t oppose the Steamboat See Steamboat 700, page 12

At a time when demand is increasing but donations are faltering, local nonprofit organizations hope Steamboat Springs’ hosting of Northwest Colorado Rural Philanthropy Days will lead to an influx of sorely needed cash. The theme of this year’s threeday event — an annual gatherEgger ing of nonprofits, government officials and grant-makers — is “Trailblazing Through Changing Times.” Rural Philanthropy Days is held in two different rural regions of Colorado each year. The northwest region includes Grand, Jackson, Moffat, Rio Blanco and Routt counties. This year’s conference is Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at the Sheraton Steamboat Resort. “I just think it’s a great opportunity,” Yampa Valley Community Foundation Executive Director Betsey Jay said. “This is our moment in the sun, and we’re going to get to tell a lot about Steamboat to a lot of people from the Front Range

who have money to give out. That’s a good thing.” The event was created in 1991 after a Community Resource Center of Denver study found that only 3 percent of the money granted by Colorado private foundations was awarded outside the Front Range. That funding since has increased 300 percent, according to the organization. Jay said Routt County has seen a spike of grant awards in the years it has hosted Rural Philanthropy Days. “It’s a great opportunity for nonprofits to congregate together in one place and make new partnerships,” said Steamboat Springs City Councilman Jon Quinn, who will participate in the event and encouraged the city’s $10,000 sponsorship of it. “I thought this would be a good opportunity to get some more money in the pipeline for these folks.” Quinn noted that the city has reduced its contributions to

nonprofit agencies as part of citywide budget cuts. Event cochairwoman Lisa Brown, director of development with the Northwest Colorado Visiting Nurse Association, said keynote speaker Robert Egger will challenge nonprofit agencies to be more involved in such decisions. “Our client load is increasing and our support from government is decreasing,” said Brown, adding that affected agencies aren’t having a big enough say in such decisions. “It’s just encouraging nonprofits to participate more outside the nonprofit sector.” Robert Egger was named one of the “50 Most Powerful and Influential Nonprofit Leaders” by The NonProfit Times in 2006, 2007 and 2008. In addition to other endeavors, Egger is the founder of the V3 Campaign that seeks to raise awareness of the economic contributions of social service organizations. “I think he’ll be a speaker with some exciting challenges,” Jay said. Egger will speak during a luncheon at noon Thursday.

Sept. 26, 27 will be prime for fall colors

��

STEAMBOAT TODAY

Peak on a cloudless afternoon and admire the unimpeded views of fall colors on the surrounding hills. If I can squeeze it in, I’d like to head out of town on a road trip with no precise itinerary. I just want to head west. It’s not unreasonable to expect that we’ll be able to poach the first cross-country skiing outing of the new season on Bruce’s Trail on Rabbit Ears Pass. If the snow doesn’t come in September, I’ll hope to volunteer for the annual workday to clear fallen lodgepole, then take my rock skis to the pass in early October. I’m an early riser, and I expect to awake in the pre-dawn sometime this month to the sound of a distant elk sounding reveille. If you can’t hear the animals bugling from your bedroom, plan an evening trip out Routt County Road 53 south of Hayden toward the Williams Fork River. The animals should be thick later this month. Before the days get too short, I want to make a series of fitness hikes up Blackmer Drive, if it’s not too late for an old man to get in shape for ski season. The weekend of Sept. 26 and

27 should be prime time for fall colors. Sometime in the preceding week, I’ll leave the office after work for Buffalo Pass, where I have a standing date with Rainbow Ridge high on the switchbacks above town. Don’t look for a sign pointing out the ridge — you’ll know it when you see it. That weekend would be a good time to drive to South Routt, turn right just past PBurg and head into extreme western Rio Blanco County for the trip over Dunckley Pass. The real reward is up and over the next drainage to Ripple Creek Pass, where the White River Valley in its fall glory spreads out at the base of the Flat Tops. You might pack a picnic of German sausage, smoked cheddar and unpasteurized apple cider if you can find it. I’ve got to get over to Gardner Field some Friday night to see Austin Hinder and the Sailors light up the scoreboard. That may not happen until Oct. 2, when Steamboat hosts a big showdown with the perennially tough Palisade Bulldogs. In the meantime, I might just sneak out of work early on Sept. 28 to see the junior varsity football team take on Eagle Valley.

Junior varsity sports get overlooked, but there’s something cool about going to a JV game and listening to the coaches teach the athletes. So check your schedules and support a bunch of up-and-coming girls volleyball or boys soccer athletes. I’ll be surprised if you don’t get a kick out of watching the youngsters on their way up. Before the aspens give up their gold to winter, I want to drive to Columbine, wander into the mature stands of aspen and lay on my back staring straight up into the quaking heavens. And when the first winter storm blows the leaves away, I want to take a good dog back to the forest and watch it snuffling through the undergrowth while I savor that strange musky smell that only spent aspen leaves give off. Finally, I want to stand in the Colorado River waving a fly rod in the air while the sweeping current literally bends and stretches the passage of time. If I get lucky and net a big brown trout, I’m going to kiss it on the lips to ensure good fortune next season. And then, you can bring on Old Man Winter,’ cause I’ll be ready for him.

COMMENTARY

Do you have something to say about a story we’ve written?

The ghosts of 1994 Ross Douthat

THE NEW YORK TIMES

There are obvious parallels between President Barack Obama’s push for health care reform and former President Bill Clinton’s ill-fated attempt 16 years ago. In both cases, an apparent legislative juggernaut hit a wall of public skepticism. Both presidents saw their poll numbers wilt in the summertime heat. Both White Houses staged a September address to Congress in an effort to regain the political initiative. Douthat We know how the story turned out last time. Clinton’s popularity, temporarily boosted by his September speech, quickly sank again. Health care reform withered on the vine. Public anger with Washington boiled higher. And Newt Gingrich’s congressional Republicans swept into power the follow-

ing fall. The long shadow of that 1994 drubbing helps explain why Democrats probably will end up passing something called “health care reform” before the year is out, the better to avoid their party’s Clinton-era fate. But Frank Luntz, the pollster behind Gingrich’s Contract With America, thinks they may have the wrong early-1990s parallel in mind. When I asked him about the lessons of 1994, Luntz — whose latest book, “What Americans Really Want ... Really,” is pitched to a bipartisan audience — happily rattled off the parallels between that era and this one: anxiety about deficits, furious distrust of Washington, growing doubts about a Democratic president. But Luntz insisted that in the run-up to the ’94 election, “it wasn’t the health care debate that was driving the anger; it was the crime bill.” That piece of legislation, which mixed stricter sentencing laws with more money

for prison-building and more financing for police, was supposed to cement Clinton’s reputation as a tough-minded centrist. Instead, the crime bill became a lightning rod for populist outrage. The price tag made it seem fiscally irresponsible. (Back then, $30 billion was real money.) The billions it lavished on crime prevention — like the infamous funding of “midnight basketball” — looked liked ineffective welfare spending. The gun-control provisions felt like liberalism-as-usual. “Every day that the Republicans delayed the bill,” Luntz remembers, “the public learned more about it — and the more they learned, the angrier they got.” That’s exactly what’s been happening now. The health care push has opened up arguments about abortion, euthanasia and illegal immigration that the Democrats would rather avoid.

On Sept. 3, The New York Times published a very revealing front-page article from Iraq about a bizarre bank robbery that summed up the challenge of where we are in Baghdad and Kabul and how to think about what it will take to succeed in both places. The article began with an appalling tale: Bodyguards for one of Iraq’s most powerful men, Vice President Adel Abdul Friedman Mahdi, tied up eight security officers at a Baghdad bank, executed them point blank and then made off with $4.3 million in cash. It is the sort of story that leaves war supporters shaking their heads, asking what we have accomplished in six years of U.S. involvement there, and war opponents

saying, “I told you so.” But then, suddenly, the story took an interesting turn. It noted that the robbers were quickly identified by witnesses, and most were arrested. After a short trial, a court in Baghdad sentenced four out of the nine robbery suspects to death. One man was acquitted; the other four still are missing. Although the plotters still are on the loose, “the robbery also demonstrated in some rickety way that Iraq’s young institutions, the judiciary, the news media and its increasingly democratic politics, make it difficult for even the country’s most powerful people to snap their fingers and make an embarrassing case go away,” the article noted. “And, contrary to the state of affairs under Saddam Hussein, there was an open trial free for anyone to criticize — and they did — even if death sentences were handed down in only two and a half days.” All the money was reportedly recovered.

Why is this story revealing? First, Iraqis and Afghans have one big thing in common: They are like battered children. And battered children often grow up to be battering adults. That is, to survive under Saddam in Iraq or to survive the Russian occupation and the Taliban years in Kabul was to survive terrifying levels of brutality. And it made many people brutal and corrupt to get by. What you see in this bank robbery story is the struggle between Iraq’s old political culture of brutality and corruption and its incipient new one of democracy and the rule of law. Now that Saddam is gone, we have to hope “that a new generation will grow up with enough rule of law, freedom of speech, freedom of thought and democracy that it will be able to overcome the culture of brutality that Saddam instilled,” said Joseph Sassoon, the Baghdad-born See Friedman, page 9 Bruce Tinsley

Republicans not capitalizing on centrism year’s worth of anxieties about bailouts, deficits and Beltway incompetence. August’s town-hall fury wasn’t just about the details of health care. Neither were the antiObama protests that crowded Washington over the weekend. They were about the Wall Street bailout, the GM takeover, the AIG bonuses, and countless smaller examples of middleincome Americans’ “playing by the rules,” as Luntz puts it, “and having someone else benefit.” The bad news for Democrats is that actually passing a health care bill could further enflame these anxieties. Clinton’s crime bill passed Congress by substantial margins, when all was said and done. But the anger that the debate had summoned up didn’t go away — and Gingrich’s Republicans were there to reap the benefits. The good news for Demo-

crats, though, is that if they pass an unpopular health care bill soon, they’ll have plenty of time to change the subject. Clinton signed the crime bill in September 1994, just two months before the Republican landslide. If health care reform passes Congress this autumn, there still will be almost a year until voters head to the polls. The even better news for Democrats is that they aren’t up against Newt Gingrich this time. Gingrich was an ideological figure, but he was savvy enough to grasp the essentially nonideological character of the public’s anger in 1994. The Contract With America, remembered as a right-wing document by liberals and conservatives alike, actually was a model of center-right incrementalism, with every bullet point carefully crafted to appeal to the voters who went for Ross Perot in 1992 and 1996. Today’s anger has a similarly Perotista cast. It burns hottest,

obviously, on the Beck-watching, Limbaugh-listening right. But it’s disaffected independents, as much as doctrinaire conservatives, who have pushed Obama’s approval numbers steadily southward. “It isn’t a right-left thing,” Luntz says. “It’s not that people are pro- or anti-government.” They just feel the government has spent the last year giving them the shaft, and they’re worried it’s about to happen again. But as long as the Republican Party is defined by its most juvenile ideologues (think Joe Wilson) and its most transparent panderers (think Michael Steele), it’s hard to see the party capitalizing on this angry centrism the way the Gingrich revolutionaries did. As Luntz observes, “it’s not enough to set the stage — you have to maximize the revolt.” And this time, the Democrats may be luckier in their opponents.

Obama needs commitment to any surges Friedman continued from 8 author of “Iraqi Refugees” and an adjunct professor at Georgetown. “But we should have no illusions; the batterers may still win.” That is what we have accomplished in Iraq so far: At a huge cost, we have given a chance for a more democratic political culture to emerge in the heart of the Arab-Muslim world. That is not insignificant. But changing a political culture is hard. It will take a long time before one trend decisively wins — and more American help will be needed to keep it on track. In Afghanistan, the U.S. military is advocating a new strategy, designed to make the Afghan people feel safe in order to get their cooperation in defeating the Taliban. It, too, requires changing the political culture and state-building from bottom up, another long historical process. You can’t visit a Greg

Mortenson school for girls there without being touched by the necessity of such an effort. But you can’t walk through an Afghan town made of mud huts, or observe how our Afghan “allies” perverted the last election, without sensing how hard it will be. While visiting Afghanistan in July, I met a U.S. diplomat in Helmand province who told me this story: He had served in Anbar, in Iraq, and one day a Marine officer came to him, after carrying a wounded buddy off the battlefield on his back, and said to him, “The policy had better match the sacrifice.” In Iraq, for way too long, our policy did not match the sacrifice of our soldiers. It was badly planned and under-resourced. Before we proceed with this new strategy in Afghanistan, we have to give our generals a chance to make their case, we also have to insist that Congress debate it anew, hear other experts, and, if Congress decides to go ahead, to

formally authorize it. Like Iraq, it would involve a long struggle, and we can’t ask our soldiers to start something we have no stomach to finish. In short, President Barack Obama has to be as committed to any surge in Afghanistan as President George W. Bush was in Iraq, because Obama will have to endure a lot of bad news before things — might — get better. Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, recently told an American Legion convention about Afghanistan: “Let’s take a good hard look at this fight we’re in, what we’re doing and why we’re doing it. I’d rather see us as a nation argue about the war, struggling to get it right, than ignore it. Because each time I go to Dover to see the return of someone’s father, brother, mother or sister, I want to know that collectively, we’ve done all we can to make sure that sacrifice isn’t in vain.”

allowing the use of marijuana or the possession of weapons on premises. Dispensaries would be required to meet certain security requirements, operate on an appointment-only basis, operate between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., and follow certain advertising restrictions. Ryan Fisher is co-owner of Rocky Mountain Remedies, one of the two dispensaries that beat the moratorium. Assistant City Attorney Dan Foote said the ordinance was partially built on regulations voluntarily suggested by Fisher and his partner, but Fisher said some of the rules are too onerous. Fisher said he doesn’t think dispensaries should be treated any differently than a pharmacy. For example, Fisher said the restriction on hours is excessive because some people work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. “I think that’s unreasonable,” Fisher said. “We’re not looking to be open late, but you’ve got to have some hours to accommodate people.” Rocky Mountain Remedies and the other dispensary that beat the moratorium won’t be subject to the ordinance, Foote said, because its rules would be made part of a permit that neither was required to obtain before opening. Councilman Jon Quinn said the regulation prohibiting dispensaries within a mile of each other might be excessive. “It’s a small town, you know,” Quinn said. “In the case of Steamboat, I’m not sure the net effect of that is what we’re looking for.” Quinn said other provisions of the ordinance were appropriate, including one that would prevent dispensaries from using the word “marijuana” or depictions of the marijuana plant on signs or in other advertisements. “You shouldn’t be advertising to people walking down the street,” Quinn said. Also today, council will meet with residents of the West Acres Mobile Home Park who are fighting the planned construction of road through their dedicated greenbelts and are involved in a legal battle with the city to prevent it or receive $400,000 in compensation. Residents say the city’s condemnation of the property and construction of the road violates the public trust doctrine. City officials argue that they negotiated the road alignment with the mobile home park’s owner and that the residents have no legal standing in the matter.

700 project and would support its proposal to be annexed into the city of Steamboat Springs. By doing so, Cunningham said it showed “good faith” to the Steamboat Springs City Council and the Steamboat 700 developers and was a method of communication that the negotiations had been completed. But Cunningham said attorneys for the district and developers still were working to tweak the agreement, but the key points likely won’t change. The district is anticipating immediately needing space for 283 K-8 students and 124 high school students as a result of the development. The 600-student K-8 school is being proposed on

the 35-acre, district-owned site adjacent to the Steamboat 700 development. Cunningham previously said construction of the school depends on when the district would put a general obligation bond on a ballot and decide to build. Citing the more than 400 new district students that could be generated by the development, she has said demand for the new school would be immediate. Steamboat 700 is a proposed development seeking annexation to construct about 2,000 homes and 380,000 square feet of retail space on 487 acres just west of Steamboat. — To reach Jack Weinstein, call 871-4203 or e-mail jweinstein@steamboatpilot.com

Haberlan said the CDC recommends the same treatment for the seasonal flu and H1N1 because symptoms for both are similar. She said that includes staying home for 24 hours after a fever has subsided. However, a study released Monday indicates the swine flu could continue to spread many days after the patient’s fever goes away. Experts say waiting until the coughing stops could be a more reliable sign of when a swine flu patient is no longer contagious. “I know that’s hard when people have to work or have responsibilities,” Haberlan said. “But this is how this illness is spread. If people keep home, it will go a long way to helping this wave dissipate, I hope.” Hoza said that ill CMC students were encouraged to stay in their dorm rooms.

reation Commission working with the community was the appropriate way,” Roberts said. City officials said they have a responsibility to look after the property and were trying to reach a compromise that satisfied neighborhood residents, was consistent with city policies and community plans, and protected the Yampa River. The city previously proposed a compromise that would have allowed Riverside residents to continue mowing 0.4 acres of the property. The compromise excluded the area Epstein was ticketed for mowing, where willows encroach

in an arc into the rectangular field. It also would have further shrunk the field by not allowing mowing within 25 feet of the river’s high-water mark. The residents rejected the proposal. Five Riverside residents bought the land to protect it from development and deeded the 4-acre property to the city in 1990. The deed states that the land conveyance to the city is valid only if it “remains predominantly in a natural, scenic and open condition without any construction of improvements thereon (except for streambank stabilization projects).” — To reach Brandon Gee, call 367-7507 or e-mail bgee@steamboatpilot.com

Are you ready for an emergency? September is National Preparedness Month, and an official with the Routt County Office of Emergency Management said that if you’re not ready, you should be. “Being ready for an emergency goes beyond making sure the batteries in your smoke detector work or that you have extra food in your pantry,” Bob Struble, the county’s emergency management director, stated in a news release. “Emergency preparedness includes assembling an emergency supply kit,

making a family emergency plan, staying informed and getting involved in your community preparedness efforts.” Struble suggests that each family have a basic kit with at least three days’ supply of water, non-perishable food, flashlights, fresh batteries, prescription medications, pet supplies, a battery-powered radio, a first aid kit and other items needed in the event of an emergency.

Cunningham reiterated Monday that the district is following the CDC’s H1N1 guidelines to not close schools but that it would monitor the situation on a case-by-case basis. She said Routt County school districts have been meeting with county health officials since the spring to discuss procedures for dealing with H1N1. Cunningham said when they last met, they agreed to conduct data analyses about absentee rates every month for the past three years to compare

with how many students are missing school this fall because of flu-like symptoms. She said that data would be used to help them make a decision about closing schools, if that became necessary. At this point, Cunningham said they don’t know what to anticipate in regard to how many more students could become sick. “They’re telling us it’s very contagious,” she said. “We don’t know what to expect. Our focus right now is prevention.” Jim Johnson, Emergency Preparedness and Response Coordinator for the Northwest Colorado Visiting Nurse Association, said in addition to schoolchildren and their parents, all people and businesses need to step up and think about what they need to do to stay open and protect the community from the spread of H1N1. He said that includes not only staying home when sick, but also practicing basic hygiene, getting immunized and crosstraining employees so if one contracted swine flu and had to stay home, another could do his or her job. “Taking responsibility for preparation and planning is all a part of this effort,” he said.

OSHA issues fines in Craig

��

4 subcontractors for power plant issued 18 citations Collin Smith

CRAIG DAILY PRESS

CRAIG

The U.S. Occupational Health and Safety Administration issued 18 citations this month to four subcontractors hired to work on an environmental upgrade to the Tri-State Generation and Transmission power plant south of Craig. Tri-State was not cited because it did not have any workers involved, OSHA Area Director Herb Gibson said. All of the citations, which totaled $15,500 in fines, were related to an incident between midnight and 1 a.m. April 18 when 19 workers were sent to the emergency room. Although OSHA cited the various subcontractors that employed the workers sent to The Memorial Hospital, Gibson said his investigators were unable to find out what caused the illnesses. All that is known is that 19 workers complained of “flu-like symptoms,” according to TriState officials, and were taken to the emergency room, treated and released. Several people who claimed to be workers sent to the hospital that night said they and others suffered far greater symptoms, such as fainting and seizures. Each of them declined to give his or her name. Gibson said he heard similar stories from workers interviewed by his staff, and as a result, OSHA spent two weeks monitoring working conditions at the power plant and trying to re-create what

happened that night. However, OSHA found no evidence those symptoms were caused by working conditions and could not re-create any instance where workers would have been overexposed to a harmful substance. “There may have been people who had more serious symptoms, but none of them were admitted (to TMH after emergency room treatment), and that’s usually the indication of seriousness,” he said. Gibson added that most of the 19 workers involved were sent to the hospital as a precaution. OSHA issued 10 citations ($9,375 in fines) to Broomfieldbased Casey Industrial, the most citations and fines of any of the four companies involved. The various violations by Casey included failing to evaluate respiratory hazards, failing to train employees on hazardous gases, failing to use an alarm system during the employee evacuation, failure to require protective gear for fly ash and various unsafe procedures regarding electrical equipment. Power Source Services received the next highest total of citations and fines, with four violations accruing $4,400 in penalties. Power Source’s violations included not establishing a written respiratory protection program for employees, which led to an employee being exposed to an excessive concentration of hexavalent chromium, a known carcinogen. Gibson said hexavalent chromium could not have caused the

symptoms workers described before going to the emergency room, so the Power Source violation is not an explanation for what happened. Steamboat Springs-based Arc Welding Specialists also was cited once for $1,200 for not using an evacuation alarm, and Topps Mechanical, of Techumseh, Neb., was cited twice for a total of $525 in fines.

FRISCO

Summit County’s only medical marijuana store — Medical Marijuana of the Rockies in Frisco — has prospered in its first month as other entrepreneurs await regulations. “For a few hours during the day, we’re slamming,” said Jerry Olson, the store’s co-owner. In its first month after opening Aug. 1, the store saw about 150 to 180 patients and accrued about $30,000 in revenue before taxes. It opened before Frisco put such businesses on hold to draft regulations. Breckenridge, Dillon and Silverthorne have done the same. By mid-October, Frisco and Breckenridge likely will have zoning and operating regulations in place for more dispensaries to

open their doors. And the number of physicianapproved patients is growing. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment last updated its Web site at the end of June, when 111 patients in Summit County were registered for medicinal marijuana ID cards through the state. Statewide, there were 8,918 registered. But experts with the state health department registrar predict the number to hit 15,000 by the end of the year, according to a report in Aspen Times Weekly. Jerry Olson, co-owner of the Frisco marijuana dispensary, said folks have become less apprehensive about applying for the registry. “People have finally gotten to the point where comfort levels are OK with discussing their need,” he said.

The Aspen-Snowmass lodging industry’s recovery from the recession isn’t expected to get any easier this winter because of increased competition within the towns and from outside ski resorts. Several high-end hotels will open this winter, increasing the competition at a time when occupancies and average daily room rates are sagging, industry observers said. The St. Regis Deer Crest will open this winter in Deer Valley, Utah, with 181 rooms. Dakota Mountain Lodge, in the Waldorf-Astoria Collection, is opening 201 rooms in Park City, Utah. Even a luxury property farther west — the Ritz-Carlton Hotel at Northstar at Lake Tahoe — will increase competition for Aspen customers coming from San Francisco, according to St. Regis Aspen General Manager Senih Geray. Even if the recession wasn’t driving down occupancy rates, the supply would outpace demand for luxury-class, slopeside hotel rooms with the addition of those properties and other in recent years, Geray said. He wonders where the skiers will come from to fill all the rooms.

The competition is getting stiffer within Aspen-Snowmass as well. The 173-room Viceroy Hotel at Base Village in Snowmass will open early in the ski season. The Residences at the Little Nell, 26 fractional ownership condominiums, will be open for its first full winter at the base of Aspen Mountain. The 126-room Limelight Hotel will have a year under its belt this winter after reopening following a reconstruction. “Finally, we’re seeing an increase in units in our community, and that’s a good thing,” said Bill Tomcich, president of Stay Aspen/Snowmass, a central bookings agency. But the increase in supply comes on the heels of “softening demand,” Tomcich said. Average occupancy in Aspen and Snowmass tourist accommodations for June was down 9 percent compared to the year before. It was down 25 percent in July, largely because of the loss of group business in Snowmass Village, Tomcich said. “If demand declines, you know what’s going to happen,” he said, referring to room rates. The average daily rate in Aspen-Snowmass declined 11 percent in June to $191, from $214 the year before. The average daily rate in July declined 13 percent to $213, from $244, according to statistics provided by Tomcich. Winter rates are about double the summer rates in Aspen and Snowmass. The rates declined slightly last winter, and there’s a strong possibility they will do the same this winter. Travelers

have turned into savvy shoppers. “Everybody’s calling for deals and wondering what kind of rate they can get,” said Norma Dolle, owner of the Snow Queen Lodge. Dolle, who has been in the Aspen lodging industry for 38 years, said she has never seen customers as price conscious as they have been during this recession. Dolle said she has reduced rates this summer, particularly for people looking for rooms at the last minute before trips. She has reduced rates that were already “reasonable.” “It’s hard on us, because you can tell they’re shopping around,” she said. Lodging properties try to maintain their rates even in tough times. It is called rate integrity in industry lingo. Dropping rates makes it tough to raise them again once the economy recovers. Geray said the St. Regis Aspen has maintained its retail rates even though occupancy has dropped during the recession. Industry studies show it can take four or five years to rebuild rates after they have been cut, he said. Properties cannot just raise rates by a drastic amount once economic conditions improve. They must be restored gradually. Rather than drop rates, the St. Regis is focusing on packaging extra elements with a room, a strategy known as “value added.” It will add spa visits and possibly even lift tickets to spur business at certain times this winter.

The town of Vail hosts a groundbreaking ceremony today to kick off construction at its newest affordable housing development. The town awarded a $781,000 contract to J.L. Viele Construction to build the duplex on the town-owned property. The building is expected to be completed by May 1, 2010. The purchase price for both duplex units is estimated to be between $375,000 and $400,000. Each half of the duplex will have just more than 1,600 square feet of living space plus an attached two-car garage on a half-acre lot. The units each will have two levels with three bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths, plus a mud room off the garage. The

town will sponsor a lottery in October to determine a ranking for qualified buyers. Applicants for the October lottery will be required to meet the following basic eligibility requirements to qualify: ■ The residence must be used as an owner-occupied primary home. ■ Individuals must be employed at an Eagle County business and must work a minimum of 30 hours each week during the course of a year and continue working that same amount until the sale of the property or retirement. ■ Individuals must agree to a re-sale cap of 3 percent annual appreciation. Floor plans for the Arosa duplex are available on the town’s Web site at http://vailgov. com.

DeGette: Public option is key

��

House Democrat criticizes considering national co-op system

DENVER

A Colorado Democrat in the House is not backing off plans for government health insurance. Rep. Diana DeGette, of Denver, said Monday the so-called public option for people without insurance still is key to passing a health care overhaul in the House. DeGette DeGette’s statement comes as President Barack Obama and Congress members of both parties appear to be moving away from the insurance option.

During the August recess DeGette, said the public option was crucial to House approval. DeGette repeated that assertion Monday in an interview. Without a public insurance option or some competition for private insurers, DeGette said, “you haven’t really done health reform.” On Sunday, Obama again talked about overhauling health care without saying whether he would demand a public insurance option. He told CBS’ “60 Minutes” that Congress would pass “a good health care bill.” But DeGette, one of several Democrats charged with gathering votes, said at least 120 House members were adamant

about including the public option. DeGette also is a member of a House committee that has considered one of the health care bills. DeGette said the House likely will wait for some health care movement in the Senate before acting. She said the Senate appears likely to consider a notfor-profit cooperative system instead of government insurance. DeGette criticized the coop idea. “The worst thing for us to do is set up some kind of alternative that is untested and doomed to fail,” said DeGette, who added she would favor pilot programs to explore health co-ops, just not a national co-op.

A Fort Carson soldier and his girlfriend missing since Saturday night have been found after a massive search in the Pike National Forest. The pair hiked out of the forest and were in a store Monday afternoon sin the town of Jefferson, some 15 to 20 miles from where they parked their car. The pair was reported missing after they failed to return from their day hike about 45 miles southwest of Denver. Their names haven’t been released. The soldier is 26, and his girlfriend is 19.

Obama warns Wall Street

��

President cautions financial leaders not to block regulations NEW YORK

Lecturing Wall Street on its own turf, President Barack Obama warned financial leaders not to use the recovering economy to race back into “reckless behavior” that could cause a new meltdown. He declared that a bailout-weary public will not break their fall again. Obama insisted Monday that there is an urgent need for tighter financial regulation, and he cautioned his audience not to try to block it. He spoke on the first anniversary of the collapse of the Lehman Brothers investment bank, the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history and a stark reminder of the financial crisis that spread into a deep recession despite huge federal bailouts of major companies.

Obama spoke from venerable Federal Hall on Wall Street. “Unfortunately, there are some in the financial industry who are misreading this moment,” Obama told a quiet audience of leaders from the investment sector. “So I want them to hear my words,” Obama said. “We will not go back to the days of reckless behavior and unchecked excess that was at the heart of this crisis. ... Those on Wall Street cannot resume taking risks without regard for consequences.” Afterward, he joined former President Bill Clinton for lunch at a New York restaurant. The White House announced Obama would address the annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative Sept. 22 while in New York for the United Nations General Assembly meeting.

Studies: H1N1 spreads after fever stops Marilynn Marchione THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO

When the coughing stops is probably a better sign of when a swine flu patient is no longer contagious, experts said after seeing new research that suggests the virus still can spread many days after a fever goes away. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been telling people to stay home from work and school and to avoid contact with others until a day after their fever breaks. The new research suggests they may need to be careful for longer — especially at home where the risk of spreading the germ is highest. Swine flu also appears to be contagious longer than ordinary

seasonal flu, several experts said. “This study shows you’re not contagious for a day or two. You’re probably contagious for about a week,” said Gaston De Serres, a scientist at the Institute of Public Health in Quebec. He presented one of the studies Monday at an American Society for Microbiology conference. It is the first big meeting of infectious disease experts since last spring’s emergence of swine flu, which now accounts for nearly all of the flu cases in the United States. More than 1 million Americans have been infected and nearly 600 have died from it, the CDC estimates. It is unclear whether the new research will lead the CDC to rethink its advice on how long people with swine flu should

hole up. Long breaks from school and work do not seem worth it for a virus that now seems to cause mostly mild illness, said the CDC’s flu chief, Nancy Cox. Swine flu is spreading so widely now that confining the sick does less good, she said. “We tried to have our guidance balance out all of these factors,” she said. “It’s just virtually impossible not to have virus introduced into settings such as schools and universities.” Doctors know that people can spread ordinary seasonal flu for a couple of days before and after symptoms start by studying virus that patients shed in mucus. The first such studies of swine flu are just coming out now, and they imply a longer contagious period for the novel bug.

“It is neither right nor responsible after you’ve recovered with the help of your government to shirk your obligation to the goal of wider Obama recovery, a more stable system, and a more broadly shared prosperity,” Obama said in a stern bid to boost his regulation proposals. The president’s speech reflected public sentiment that taxpayers were immeasurably harmed from last year’s financial collapse — and that, barring change, it could happen again. As investment giants return to profit, millions of Americans still are coping with unemployment, home foreclosures and retirement portfolios that got washed away in the storm. For symbolic emphasis,

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

The Steamboat Springs High School boys golf team traveled to Carbondale on Monday and picked up its second tournament title in a row at the River Valley Ranch Golf Club. “I’m really happy with the way we are playing team golf

right now,” coach Steve Dodson said. “I think we are in a pretty good place right now.” The team got solid rounds from Kaelen Gunderson and Alan Capistron, who each finished with 3-over-par 75s, and Scott Ptach, who rounded out the team score with a 77. Steamboat’s Skyler Martin shot an 85, and Patrick Weston finished with an 88.

Gunderson and Capistron tied for low gross score in the tournament. Gunderson won the playoff holes and took top individual honors in the tiebreaker. Capistron was OK with the second-place finish, particularly after matching his seasonbest round. “I putted really well today, which was kind of surprising

because the greens were really tough,” Capistron said. “But I was hitting the fairways, and I was able to get up and down on the greens.” Dodson said the level of competition in Carbondale wasn’t the toughest the Sailors have faced this season, but he doesn’t think that will matter as the See Sailors, page 22

The title for the men’s low gross in the championship flight would be decided in a playoff.

“I was just happy that I had forced the playoff,” Boucher said. “He led me nearly the whole way, but I was able to score an eagle on 18, and that really helped.” Boucher and Kurtenbach were tied at 144 after 36 holes of play. The two players both See Fall Classic, page 22

Federer stunned by del Potro in final Howard Fendrich

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK

Normally so cool, so consistent, so in control of his emotions and his matches, Roger Federer let the U.S. Open championship slip from his grasp. Two points from victory against inexperienced, unheralded Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina, two points from a sixth consecutive Federer title at Flushing Meadows and a record-extending 16th Grand Slam overall, Federer, quite simply, fell apart Monday. He railed at the chair umpire. His legs grew weary. His double-faults mounted. He could not figure out a way to stop the 6-foot-6 del Potro from pounding forehand after forehand past him. In a result as surprising for who lost as how it happened, the sixthseeded del Potro came back to win his first Grand Slam title by upsetting the No. 1-seeded Federer 3-6, 7-6 (5), 4-6, 7-6 (4), 6-2. “Can’t have them all,” Federer said. He had won 40 consecutive

TENNIS — US OPEN matches at Flushing Meadows. He had won 33 of his previous 34 Grand Slam matches. And he has made the final at 17 of the past 18 Grand Slam tournaments, 21 overall. Del Potro? This was the 20year-old’s first Grand Slam final, and he was 0-6 against Federer until now. But after handing Rafael Nadal the most lopsided loss of his Grand Slam career in the semifinals Sunday, del Potro came back the next day and rattled Federer. Until Monday, Federer was 2-5 in Grand Slam finals against his nemesis, Nadal, and 13-0 against everyone else. Somehow, del Potro never seemed intimidated by the setting or the man many consider the greatest tennis player in history. The usually unflappable Federer argued with chair umpire Jake Garner during a changeover, using a profanity and saying, “Don’t tell me to be quiet, OK? When I want to talk, I talk.” Del Potro, meanwhile, managed to have the time of his young life, high-fiving frontrow fans after winning one point, and reveling in the soccer-style serenades of “Ole!” ringing through the stadium.

Luck covered problems Broncos coach: Team has flaws to work on despite win Arnie Stapleton

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ENGLEWOOD

With the euphoria of the “Immaculate Deflection” subsiding, the Denver Broncos returned to work Monday determined to fix plenty of problems that were exposed in their wild victory at Cincinnati. “We certainly didn’t do everything we wanted to do the way McDaniels we wanted to do it,” coach Josh McDaniels said. “But we did do enough things well enough for us to be in it late in the game and give ourselves an opportunity to make a play.” Before Brandon Stokley’s 87-yard touchdown catch on a deflected pass with 11 seconds left gave the Broncos a farfetched 12-7 win against the bewildered Bengals, Denver’s offense failed at every turn. Kyle Orton had thrown for just 156 yards, Pro Bowl receiver Brandon Marshall and top draft pick Knowshon Moreno were a step slow, and the bumbling offense failed to take any heat off Denver’s defense. Marshall looked mechani-

NFL cal and was unable to gain his usual separation. He dropped the first pass thrown his way and let a deep pass slip through his hands before finishing with four catches for a paltry average of 6.8 yards. He missed almost all offseason while recuperating from hip surgery, protesting his pay and serving a suspension. Moreno, who injured a knee in the preseason, gained just 19 yards on eight carries, and it appeared as though Orton thought he still was in Chicago at times when he got happy feet way too quickly behind Denver’s stout offensive line. Five times, the Broncos went three-and-out. Most egregious was the Broncos’ play on a drive that

could have clinched it midway through the fourth quarter when they led 6-0 and were on the Bengals 24. Guard Ben Hamilton false started, center Casey Wiegmann held and Orton took a sack on sequential plays to move them out of kicker Matt Prater’s field goal range. “That whole series was bad football,” McDaniels said. And it finally caught up to them. Denver’s refurbished defense finally bent, allowing the Bengals to drive 91 yards for the goahead score on Cedric Benson’s 1-yard TD run with 38 seconds left. Carson Palmer suddenly was comfortable in the pocket without the Broncos blitzing, and McDaniels said the fatigue factor probably caught up with them on that drive.

scored pars on the first hole of sudden death, but on the second hole, Boucher’s tee shot missed the mark, and Kurtenbach, who played golf for Colorado State University, said he wasn’t about to let the opportunity slip away. Kurtenbach nailed a 12-footer to score a birdie and seal the title. Boucher made par. “He’s a very scrappy player, and he knows this course,” Kurtenbach said. “I knew if didn’t hit that putt, there was a good chance he was going to get me on the next hole.” Despite falling just short of the title, Boucher said he wasn’t disappointed with his play or the tournament, which now is in its second year at Haymaker. “I don’t travel a lot to play

golf,” Boucher said. “So to have two days of play with a field of golfers who are scratch level or better is great. I love the competition of this tournament, and I think it’s only going to get better.” This year, the tournament hosted a total of 60 players, including 12 from outside of Steamboat Springs. Haymaker pro Hank Franks last year’s inaugural event drew 53 players. Franks said getting the tournament on the Colorado Golf Association’s points list was a big help in attracting out-oftown golfers. He expects the event will grow even more next year. “This tournament is still evolving,” Franks said. “It started primarily as a men’s tournament, but we saw a lot more women this year and there’s no reason it can’t keep growing.” Franks compared the Fall Classic to the Haywhacker junior tournament, which is held

earlier in the summer. That tournament was started as a local junior event, but it now draws a large field of junior golfers from across the state. Steamboat Springs’ Barbara Simms won the gross title in the women’s Fall Classic championship flight with a two-day total of 171. She held off Pam Vanatta, who was second at 174, and D.J. Edwards, who was third with a 175. Vanatta earned the title in the net division. Scott Berry won the men’s net title at the Fall Classic. Mark Fischer won the men’s first flight (gross), and Tom Corl won the men’s first flight (net). Fruita’s Daniel Boehm topped the men’s second flight (gross) with a 177, and Jeff Nelson was second flight’s top net player. Linda Danter topped the women’s first flight net division with a 136. — To reach John F. Russell call 871-4209 or e-mail jrussell@steamboatpilot.com

Sailors play in Aspen today Sailors continued from 20 team moves toward the regional tournament at Haymaker next week. “In golf, you play the course — not the other teams,” Dodson said. “I stressed that to my players all season, and I think we are getting better with each tournament.” The coach said Montrose and Cortez elected to go to a tournament in Durango, and the Battle Mountain team that finished second Monday with a score of 240 in Carbondale was missing its big guns. But Dodson is happy with the way his team has responded the past couple of tournaments, and he is excited about Steamboat’s chances at regionals.

“There is no question that it’s going to come down to a couple of strokes,” Dodson said. “I have been telling my players not to throw away shots just because they missed a tee shot or missed a putt. They are out there playing for the other four guys, not themselves.” Steamboat spent the night in a hotel and will play its final tournament of the regular season in Aspen today. “I’m just hoping to get back in the mid-70s,” Capistron said. “Aspen is a tricky little golf course. It’s not the kind of golf course where you’re going to pull the driver out. You have to be accurate to score well there.”
