Castle Rock’s new fire chief is Norris Croom Council voted unanimously to confirm the former deputy chief for top job BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
It’s official: After decades with Castle Rock’s fire department, Norris Croom has become its new chief. Town Manager David Corliss selected Croom, the department’s deputy chief, from among five finalists who hailed from in and outside Colorado. Former Chief Art Morales retired in May after 15 years with the department, prompting a nationwide search for his successor. The Town Council unanimously ratified Croom’s appointment to the $158,000-a-year position at its Sept. 18
meeting. “I’m just truly humbled,” Croom said following the vote, while surrounded by friends, family and members of the fire department. The North Carolina native came to Castle Rock Croom in 1986 and has spent all 32 years of his fire-and-rescue career with the town, starting as a volunteer firefighter that same year. He’s served in numerous capacities within the department, including in emergency management, paramedicine and hazardous materials. Croom, 51, served as deputy chief under Morales and was acting chief while the town’s search for his replacement was underway. He’s been a chief officer with the department since 1998. Corliss said the majority of public feedback gathered at an open house was
in support for Croom. Upon his retirement, Morales also praised Croom for supporting him in his years as chief. “My success is in large part due to Norris,” Morales said in May. “He’s brilliant, a wonderful strong leader.” Leaving the department in Croom’s hands until a permanent chief could be named, Morales also said, was “as good as it gets.” Fire personnel lined the back wall of council chambers during the evening meeting and gave Croom a standing ovation following council’s vote. The item was initially planned to be in the night’s consent agenda — a group of routine items voted on together — but council removed the item to address it individually. “We really appreciate you, Norris, and all that you’ve done for our town,” Councilmember Jess Loban said. “Really excited to have you here as our chief.”

My job is very physically demanding, so I get an adjustment myself once every week. It makes a noticeable difference, so I can personally attest to the effectiveness of chiropractic care for pain management.

In fact, I was the regional manager of many southern California locations until my wife and I moved to the Castle Rock area. We love it here. Getting into the business My original plan was to go to medical school, but I soon realized how dissatisfied I was with the traditional medical model. This refers to approaching pain with medications, such as prescription opioid drugs — which can be highly addictive — and hoping the problem heals on its own. This did not resonate with me. In my search for finding a path that I believed in, I got a job working with a chiropractor where I learned a new approach to pain that did not involve medication and actually solved the

Police ask for help with video surveillance program Rock Watch is a modern neighborhood watch concept STAFF REPORT
With more and more businesses and homes having some form of video surveillance, Castle Rock Police are looking to create a unique community partnership. Surveillance video is one of the best methods for detecting and apprehending criminals. That’s why the department is asking community members to register their exterior or public area surveillance cameras with its Rock Watch program. Rock Watch is a modern neighborhood watch concept that creates a voluntary, opt-in partnership with the community. When Castle Rock residents and businesses register their exterior or public area surveillance cameras, police will be able to map out a web of cameras in the area. If an incident is reported, this map will assist the department in identifying locations where surveillance footage may be found. When registered cameras may have caught a criminal act, the department will ask you to review your recordings and allow them to be used as evidence in criminal proceedings. Rock Watch does not allow Castle Rock Police to have independent access to cameras or surveillance recordings. Community members must share the recordings with the police department for review. Go to CRgov.com/RockWatch to register cameras in exterior or public locations. Any area of Castle Rock where public area surveillance cameras are present can be incorporated to improve the program’s efficiency and scope.

Charter schools have role in DCSD tax conversation BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Of the Douglas County School District’s 91 schools, 21 are charter schools. The seven charter schools built before 2007 need about $7.7 million for critical building repairs that risk school closure, according to Superintendent Thomas Tucker. For similar repairs, the district’s neighborhood, magnet and alternative schools built prior to 2007 — the vast majority — need $121 million. In November, voters living within the district will decide on two tax measures that would provide additional funding for DCSD. A bond would address urgent capital needs, security improvements, information technology and transportation. A mill levy override would go toward teacher pay and programming. About 20 percent of the district’s 68,000 students attend charter schools. While these schools would receive an equal share of a $40 million mill levy override, they would only get up to $9 million of a $250 million bond. That’s about 3.6 percent of the funds. Douglas County Board of Education President David Ray explains:
“The bond is equitable, not equal, meaning that it goes to where the greatest need is. My assumption is that the charter schools are newer than neighborhood schools — even neighborhood schools don’t get considered for capital improvements until they’ve been around for six to 10 years. The charters, because they are new, don’t necessarily have some of those needs.” Built in 1996, Academy Charter School in Castle Rock is the district’s oldest charter school. The average age of charter schools is eight years, according to Rich Cosgrove, chief operations officer at the district. The average age of the district’s neighborhood, magnet and alternative schools is 23 years. In Colorado, a charter school is defined as a public school operated by a group of parents, teachers and/ or community members as a semiautonomous school of choice within a school district, according to the Colorado Department of Education. It operates under a contract between members of the charter school and the local school board. Charter schools receive an equal share of per-pupil revenue, or money per student from the state for operating expenses, capital reserve and risk insurance, according to the Department of Education. Whereas school districts finance their facilities using property taxes, mill levies and local bonds, charter schools generally do
not receive a proportionate share of these funds and must tap into perpupil revenue for facility needs, the Colorado League of Charter Schools reports. Five years ago, Aspen View Academy opened in Castle Rock. Abby Remington’s 6-year-old son currently attends the charter school, which is a two-minute walk from the family’s home. Remington likes the independent control of charter schools, which are typically governed by a board of directors. But she’s noticed the economics at charter schools are different than at neighborhood schools. Unlike neighborhood schools, Aspen View Academy doesn’t have buses or offer transportation services, which is a challenge for some parents, Remington said. Still, she supports the tax measures, even with less money going to charter schools. “I think it’s important we fund our schools properly for property value and to make sure our kids are getting a proper education,” Remington said. “If it’s a more expensive place to live, you need to pay people more.” About the measures At an Aug. 21 school board meeting, the school board unanimously approved putting Tucker’s recommendation for a bond and mill levy override package on the Nov. 6 ballot. Should voters in the county approve the tax increases, a homeowner with

a home valued at $470,00 would pay an additional $208 a year, or $17.33 a month. Ballot measures on school funding were brought before Douglas County voters in 2008 and 2011, but voters rejected them. The last time Douglas County passed a local bond or mill levy override was in 2006. Lack of funding has caused disparities in teacher pay across county lines and buildings in need of $303 million to $403 million in repairs, according to DCSD’s Master Capital Plan. To determine how much of the bond would be allocated to charter schools, the district used a similar process to what it uses with neighborhood schools. Last spring, the district’s Planning and Construction department collaborated with charter schools to assess capital needs, Tucker said in an email correspondence. Over the summer, the department visited every charter school facility built before 2007 to “assess and confirm their most urgent capital needs,” Tucker said. “The district’s director of safety and security also visited each DCSD charter school to assess physical security needs,” Tucker said. District staff determined a range of $3 million to $9 million to address Tier 1 and security needs in charter schools. SEE TAX, P8

Unaffiliated voters on rise, but impact unclear Eyes are on Colorado voters who shun party registration BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Colorado’s status as a “purple” state often gets tossed about, and in the battle to tilt the state to Republicans’ and Democrats’ liking, unaffiliated voters are caught in a tug-of-war. Just how mixed the electorate really is sparks debate in a state that voted for Democrats in the last three presidential elections but where support for President Donald Trump has been high among Republicans. Statewide, active registered Democrats have inched past Republicans, compared to this time two years ago. Democrats now lead with about 994,000 voters to Republicans’ 973,000, whereas the GOP held onto a 3,000-voter lead over Democrats in 2016. But in the 2018 midterm elections, unaffiliated voters — those who don’t officially identify with a political party — are in high demand, viewed as having the potential to blur

the red and blue lines. Unaffiliateds account for roughly 1.21 million of Colorado’s active voters, or 37 percent of the total. “When you talk to people, nobody’s quite sure what the turnout is going to be this year — that’s part of why
there’s so much focus on the unaffiliated voters,” said Matt Crane, Arapahoe County’s clerk and recorder, who oversees elections there. In a time of increasingly polarized national politics — and even a strongly divided state climate — unaffiliated
voters have grown as a group over the last decade, overtaking both major parties as the state’s largest voting bloc. But don’t count them all as true independents, analysts say. “I don’t think the impact of the unaffiliated voters will
be huge,” said Seth Masket, a political science professor at the University of Denver. He added: “They tend to act a lot like partisans.” How much of a wild card the group will actually be is far from certain, but with the loudest voice in the room, unaffiliated voters are under the microscope this season. Brewing for years The passing of Proposition 108 in 2016, which allowed voters to participate in a major party’s primary elections without officially aligning with that party, put the spotlight on undeclared voters. But they’ve been quietly gaining for years, Crane said. “We’ve seen an uptick in unaffiliated registration since 2006 or 2007,” Crane said of the pattern in Arapahoe County. “It goes back that far, where you see people leaving both parties and going unaffiliated.” Statewide, comparing yearby-year each August, unaffiliated active registered voters surpassed Republicans and Democrats, respectively, by 2013, according to the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office.

The Wag `n Trail annual event took over the Glendale Farm Open Space offering attendees a 1.6-mile hike, craft beers to refresh after and food for owners and pets alike. Registration fees and donations collected through the event benefit the Buddy Center, a full-service animal shelter located in Castle Rock. The Buddy Center offers medical care, training services, foster care and pet adoptions in the county. Curtis and Donna Hopehill traveled from Loveland to participate, carrying a photo of their dog Rossco, who died of cancer but loved coming, they said. They took with them this year their two new rescues, Maliwan, a German shepherd mix, and Luna, a Great Dane. “I’ve been coming since 2008,” said Donna, who used to live in Castle Rock. Hopehill said they love supporting the Dumb Friends League and honoring Rossco’s memory. “This was just his ultimate favorite event.”

“A range of estimated costs for this work was established since district facilities staff does not manage the construction and maintenance of charter schools, and does not have complete familiarity of manufactured products and the condition of building components,” Cosgrove said in an email correspondence. “Detailed project budgets will be established once design begins with architects and engineers to confirm the scopes of work.” District needs are outlined in the district’s comprehensive Master Capital Plan, which is updated yearly and available to the public at https:// bit.ly/2xjkeLF. Capital needs are prioritized based on a tiered system. A Tier 1 need, for example, would be a broken elevator or fire alarm. Tier 2 needs are specific to programming, such as a high school athletic field or snowplow trucks. Tier 3 needs are ancillary components of a building, such as the paint on the walls or furniture. The lowest needs, Tier 4, are aesthetics such as landscaping.

Typically, charters are built by outside companies, not the district. “I think this is a historical moment that says for the first time charters are having some of that revenue shared for their needs as well,” Ray said. “I think there is a lot of chatter that says this board is anti-charter and I think that couldn’t be further from the truth.”

VOTERS FROM PAGE 5
Frustration with major parties likely plays a role, and Colorado’s state Legislature has been among the most polarized in the country — in terms of how far the parties are from each other in ideology — according to research by Boris Shor of the University of Houston and Nolan McCarty of Princeton University. “When the choices seem so far apart between the parties, it tends to push people to register as unaffiliated,” said Robert Preuhs, political science professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver. It’s common for millennials to register as unaffiliated, said Crane, a Republican running for re-election in November. And, as with several facets of Colorado life, high population growth may play a role. “New migrants from any other state tend to be more likely to register as unaffiliated until they get a sense of how the party operates in their state,” Preuhs said. More hard-line conservative or liberal voters may forgo the caution, he added, but newcomers to the state likely add to the unaffiliated count on the margins. Even Western individualism may have shaped Colorado’s makeup, Preuhs said, referencing the idea that the Mountain West identity may not fit easily into Republican or Democratic policy positions. “Relative to other states, Colorado has had a high proportion of unaffiliated voters dating back (a few) decades,” Preuhs said. Eyes on the prize Both major parties, in and out of Colorado, are spending money to target unaffiliated voters, Crane said. “There’s a real science behind trying to figure out how to woo the unaffiliated voters,” Crane said. Television ads, literature dropped at doors and social-media efforts are among the methods used to chase those voters in areas of the state where they’re prominent, and key messages from campaigns can be part of that targeting, he added. Both parties have their work cut out for them because they’ve moved to further to the left and right in recent years, said Dick Wadhams, political strategist and former chair of the Colorado Republican Party. For example, Sen. Bernie Sanders did well in Colorado during his presidential run, he said. “But it becomes more difficult to appeal to the more unaffiliated voters” the more that happens, Wadhams said. To be a Democratic nominee today, a candidate has to lean far left, and Republicans “have to pass the Trump test,” said Eric Sondermann, a Colorado political analyst, while discussing the governor’s race.
“You don’t see (Walker) Stapleton or others deviating much from Trump orthodoxy,” Sondermann said, referencing the Republican candidate for governor. Judging by the June primary election, Democrats will hope more unaffiliated voters turn out to vote, while Republicans would likely be content with a normal election scenario, Preuhs said. “Republicans tend to turn out more than Democrats and unaffiliated voters in midterms,” Preuhs said. In the June primary, unaffiliated voters chose the Democratic ballot over the Republican one by roughly 70,000, according to the Secretary of State’s Office. Parties that aren’t in power “tend to have more momentum,” Sondermann said previously. “It doesn’t determine what’ll happen in November, but I’d rather be holding the Democratic cards than the Republican cards.” On the fence? It’s popular to point out that unaffiliated voters are Colorado’s largest voting bloc — making up more than one-third of the electorate — but practically, Sondermann said, that’s inaccurate. “There are many unaffiliated voters that are tacit Republicans or Democrats,” Sondermann said. True unaffiliateds who can go either way would likely make up somewhere around 10 percent to 20 percent of unaffiliated voters, Sondermann guesses — which works out to just under 4 percent to 8 percent of all voters in Colorado. But they’re still the “gold mine of politics,” he added. “They’re the group that elected (President Barack) Obama and then switched and elected Trump — elected (Sen. Mark) Udall and then Cory Gardner,” Sondermann said. Moving the needle For the midterms, “the big question” is how many in the group will actually vote, Preuhs said. “Even when they have stable preferences, unaffiliated voters are still less likely to vote” than affiliated ones, Preuhs said. Their potential to pull politicians to the middle may not be monumental, according to Masket. “In other states, at any rate, when we see primaries open up to unaffiliated voters, we don’t really see much of an effect on the elected officials themselves,” Masket said. “They don’t seem to become any more moderate, in large part because unaffiliated or independent voters simply don’t vote in very high numbers.” Whether more unaffiliated voters participating will cause a shift in Colorado politics will take years to become clear, Preuhs said. And even this midterm election may not shed much light — identifying patterns is difficult given the uniqueness of the Trump administration and its influence, he added. “For the real answers, we’re going to have to see,” Preuhs said. “We need more data to see what shift is going to occur, if any.”

STAFF REPORT
Many common products found around the home could be hazardous and must be disposed of properly, helping to prevent the potential of accidental poisonings and fire hazards. The Douglas County Household Chemical Roundup makes it easier for residents to get rid of that chemical waste. Among the items accepted are motor oil, antifreeze, vehicle batteries, household batteries, solvents, fire extinguishers, propane tanks, oilbased paint and tires. A complete list of acceptable items can be found at www.tchd.org/hcroundup. The Sept. 29 roundup will be open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Castle Rock Wa-
ter, 175 Kellogg Court, west of I-25 and south of Santa Fe Drive. Residents are asked to pay $25 per vehicle to offset the cost of hazardous waste disposal. Proof of residency will be required; bring driver’s license or utility bill. Advanced registration is encouraged at www.tchd.org/hcroundup. A free drop-and-swap area is available where residents can drop off or pick-up household cleaners, paint, car wax, antifreeze, fertilizer and garden products that are still in their original containers. Reuse of these items promotes environmental stewardship by reducing the amount of waste disposed and additionally decreases the total disposal cost of the roundup. SEE ROUNDUP, P22

Castle Rock taxes stay the same, impact fees increase BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
It’s budget season in Castle Rock and that means the town is hearing and approving a flurry of financial plans for the future, from the 2019 budget to impact fees and mill levies. Most significantly, the town council gave final approval Sept. 18 to a $236.6 million budget for 2019 that does not include new or higher town taxes but does raise impact fees for builders. Impact fees are paid when a developer pulls a permit for new construction. The money is used for growth-related capital projects like roads or fire stations. Town Manager David Corliss has said if the town does not raise impact fees there would not be sufficient funding to build a new fire station in the next decade, despite the town growing by roughly three families a day. The impact fees will increase gradually over the next four years by nearly 50 percent and are expected to generate $1.1 million between 2019 and 2023. The budget in its entirety focuses largely on supporting public safety. The town will fund its newest fire station in Crystal Valley for its first full year — $2 million — and spend roughly $455,000 on more police and fire positions.
That includes hiring two dispatchers; one more co-responder officer, which works on a special unit responding to mental health-related calls; an operations assistant for the fire department; and funds to help pay for one more school resource officer. There was not enough money in the budget for 11 additional full-time public safety positions that were requested for police and fire, Corliss said. Council gave initial approval to next year’s mill levy on Sept. 18, which is not planned to change from the 2018 mill levy of 1.330 mills. Final approval will come in December during second reading of the property tax issue. Under this plan, residents who own a home valued at $373,254 can expect to pay $35.74 in property tax to the town next year. Council also heard and approved a three-year Balanced Financial Plan, which projects sales tax will increase by approximately 4 percent annually for the next three years, and a FiveYear Capital Improvement Program, which maps out the town’s capital projects planned in the next five years. The plan is mostly dominated by transportation needs. “We budget for one year,” Corliss said, “and we plan for three.”

hen my DVD remote was being made, they added beef flavoring to the liquid plastic before it was molded. That’s the only explanation I can think of. It went missing. I finally located it under the bed. It had a succession of teeth marks that matched Harry’s dental records. Harry has dozens of other chewable toys that were intended for dogs. They were purchased at pet stores. The remote was not.
The remote still worked, but its grisly appearance was unwelcome. You can find anything online, and I found an unused replacement that had been picked up at a Santa Clara estate sale. I put blue tape on the new one. It was supposed to remind me not to leave it bedside. I like to watch a few minutes of old movies before I meet the arms of Morpheus, and I just leave the remote on the table next to the bed
when that time comes. In the morning, I’m supposed to remember where I left it the night before, but I am not that accountable, and Harry knows it. Sitting at my computer this a.m., I heard gnawing and looked down. The little tubular fiend and I were separated for no more than two minutes since leaving the bedroom earlier, but that’s all it took. It could be worse. I have heard much worse. One reader lost three

O LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Vote yes for our schools Those who have lived in Douglas County for a long time know that the last three decades have brought a lot of change. When my children were little, Douglas County was a destination district for young families. Unfortunately, the current state of our schools is distressed. From 2009-17, our board of education intentionally defunded education and hurt our kids. Thankfully, our newly elected board is eager to return value to our children’s educations and lives. Because of Colorado’s constitutional constraints, the best solutions for schools now happen at the local level. Douglas County has not helped its own children and schools since passing a funding measure in 2006. In 2017, Colorado teacher salaries were ranked 31st, but Douglas County teacher salaries were even lower. Our average teacher pay falls $19,000 below

a Cherry Creek School District teacher’s pay. Our children cannot escape these significant and negative consequences. We have become a training ground for other districts. New teachers start out in Douglas County School District and quickly move onto surrounding districts, where they can earn a living wage. DCSD has pinched pennies over the last 10 years, but it is not sustainable. We live in a prosperous community. A successful school district adds value to our property and our community and creates a new generation that can lead for our future. We can do better and our kids deserve way better. Doing what helps children is always good and right. We all need to vote YES on 5A&B. Maggie Bierbaum Larkspur SEE LETTERS, P13

Money goes where needs are Joy Overbeck questioned why charter schools were getting only a small percentage of the DCSD bond issue 5B on this November’s ballot. There are several reasons why district-owned buildings receive the bulk of the bond funding. A majority of the bond money will address the Tier 1 (health and safety) needs for schools built before 2006, as defined in the 2018-2019 Master Capital Plan. Most charter schools were built after 2006. Taxpayers should want capital funds to go to schools with the most significant needs. Providing adequate maintenance ensures students are being educated in a safe environment. It would be fiscally irresponsible to give equal amounts of money to American Academy Lincoln Meadows, which opened last year, and Douglas County High School, opened in 1961. Homeowners apply home maintenance dollars to rooms with the greatest need, not equally to every room in the house. Complex state and federal statutes dictate how school districts provide capital funding to charter schools; it’s not a simple pass-through of money like the mill levy override. Charter schools have access to grants and other alternative sources for funding not available to neighborhood schools. Charter schools receive about $300 perpupil revenue per year from Colorado for capital needs — money not available to district-owned buildings. The district’s plan makes common sense. Vote Yes on 5A & B! Catherine Lees Highlands Ranch Way off base on teachers How is it possible that there are educated adults in this country who still believe teachers work less than full time as professional educators? I was appalled to read nonsense to the contrary in a recent letter to the editor, titled “No need for tax hike.” To base an argument on an assumption — that teachers work eight hours a day, 40 hours per week — is naïve and ridiculous. Unlike many other jobs, daily and weekly hours required to be an effec-

I said, “We are not a cat, Harry.” I explained to him the use of the editorial “we.” “We” replaces the first person in an editorial, thereby lifting the onus of accountability from one person to the entire editorial board. My use of it with Harry, however, was intended to blunt my disapproval. With this particular hound, I am not a very tough tactician. I know better, but he is not, as it were, on a short leash. However, I don’t want to encourage cat behavior in him. Cats bring their prey to you, and sit aloof in corners and lick their paws all day, and that’s about it.

tive teacher aren’t limited to contract hours; much of the work takes place at home, at night and on the weekends. Teachers spend most of their day with students, with a fraction of the day allotted for plan time, often spent in staff meetings, collaborative learning teams, student-support meetings, IEP and 504 meetings, parent correspondence, and planning, with a 20-25 minute lunch (as long as making copies, parent communications or helping a struggling student don’t take first priority). This leaves updating online student-support sites, conference planning, designing of lessons and activities, planning, and grading assignments for 120-160 students for the evenings, nights, and weekends, outside of the 40-hour work-week. In fact, look around at your next youth event — you’ll probably see a teacher in the bleachers grading papers. And by the way, taking the nine weeks of summer into account, which is often used as planning time and educator training on their own dime, the total number of hours worked by teachers per year far exceeds fulltime employment status. Eric Waggoner Parker Proposition would bring needed change I urge voters to vote yes on Proposition 112, prohibiting oil and gas development within 2,500 feet from other drill holes, living structures and critical habitat. Chesapeake Oil has formed a joint venture with China and has an approved drilling and spacing program including horizontal drilling for fracking in section 8, Stonegate, adjacent to Grandview Estates, where I live. The location of the well would meet the current setbacks of 500 feet, but not the 2,500 feet required by Proposition 112, which would prevent the permitting of the well. Many odd-numbered sections in Douglas County also have their underlying mineral rights owned by Anadarko. Scientists have shown that methane leakage from oil and gas operations contribute significantly to greenhouse gases are no longer acceptable, resulting in a climate emergency. Proposition 112 will reduce public and environmental risk from fracking, handling of toxic materials and reducing the risk of short-circuiting are wonderful times with him. In a blink he will be 5, then 10. He moved here in February, but by all appearances we have been best friends for years, even decades. If you can take it, watch something called “Owen and Haatchi” on “E:60.” Owen, a boy, has Schwartz-Jampel syndrome, and Haatchi, a dog, is missing a leg and his tail. Haatchi was tied up — intentionally — next to train tracks and a train ran over him. But he survived. It’s a short documentary, and there’s also a book. Every time I watch it, I hope that Owen’s parents have prepared him for the one bad day all dog owners face. Harry’s appetite for things that are not intended for him has cost me less than $100. He’s worth it, and more. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.
with historic and abandoned wells by establishing a 2,500-foot cylinder of exclusion (450 acres) around schools and housing. There are viable alternatives for replacing methane for energy production in Colorado, namely wind and solar renewable energy production. Water supplies in Douglas County are precious and limited in supply and must not be gambled on high density fracking. Approximately 8,000 residences in Douglas County are dependent on groundwater wells, mostly in non-renewable aquifers. Vote yes on 112 to protect human health, safety and our precious water. Charles H. Bucknam Parker Proposition 112 is misguided idea I am a Colorado geologist who discovered my passion for our dynamic earth at an early age. My role in the oil and gas industry has allowed me to devote my life to studying and protecting the planet that I love while helping to supply us all with affordable, reliable and plentiful energy; energy that sustains life, provides opportunities,
and makes possible experiences of which previous generations could only dream. According to information that can be found at commonsensepolicyroundtable.org: Proposition 112 would effectively ban oil and gas development in our state, resulting in the loss of thousands of jobs, many of which would be outside of the oil and gas industry. It would also erase about $8 billion in state and local tax revenue that supports things such as schools, housing and other local programs. Based on these and other impact studies (including those endorsed and authored by the Colorado School of Mines and the Leeds School of Business at CU Boulder), it may come as no surprise that proposition 112 has garnered significant opposition, including from both candidates for and our current governor. Please join me in voting no on 112. We can do (and more importantly, are) better than this. Rhead Cannon Castle Rock

t took Chris Clarke about five minutes to completely transform from plainclothes civilian to cosplay hero. First, he pulled his armor, made of ethylene-vinyl acetate foam, over his legs. Then came the chest plate. The final piece, a converted motorcycle helmet with foam aesthetics was placed on his head, and he was Altera Blademaster, a humanoid from the video game “Monster Hunter: Frontier G.” The suit won Clarke the Best in Show at GalaxyFest and Cheyenne Comic Con, as well as a judge’s award at Denver Comic Con, all in 2017. He carefully measured every edge and curve to fit the exact model of the blademaster’s complicated armor. The armor, helmet and scepter took months to finish and cost about $400. “A lot of people are like, ‘I want to be that character,’” Clarke said. “I just picked mine because it was big
and it was spikey.” On this hot summer evening at Lions Park in Golden, as the Sept. 16 cycling race rolled into town, Clarke, 34 of Commerce City, and two friends had come for a photo shoot for this story about the meaning of cosplay. Clarke’s transformation instantly drew stares from passersby. The suit makes Clarke look like an action figure, or, more specifically, a real live video game avatar, over his all-black elastic heat gear and leggings. Cosplay — a combination of “costume” and “play” — is the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, book or video game. It’s mostly popular in the realms of manga or anime, traiditional Japanese animations, and is used as an outlet of expression, either based on relation to a certain character, resemblance to a character or for the challenge of the costume itself. Clarke’s costume is specific for competition, but the meaning of cosplay is deeper to him than just for winning trophies. He started an online group, Colorado Academy of Cosplay, to be a home for a community of about 350 cosplayers from around the state that specializes in educating beginners into the art of cosplay. As Clarke strode across the parking lot at Lions Park, his form even

s a musical organization that has been in existence since 1977, it can be a challenge to put together a season that feels fresh every year. But that is a challenge Lakewood Symphony Orchestra Music Director Matt Switzer relishes. “Planning a season is approached from many directions — how many concerts, how many soloists, what COMING repertoire has been ATTRACTIONS performed in the past five to seven years, what works will challenge the orchestra?” he explained. “The 2018-2019 season came together from a repertoire that hasn’t been performed by the orchestra in a number of years, an exciting Clarke Reader new repertoire that the orchestra has never performed and thematic choices of repertoire to pull it all together.” That theme is “Music By the Book,” and the season officially kicks off at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 4, at the Lakewood Cultural Center, 470 S. Allison Parkway, with the “Classics” program. The show will feature works from Mozart, including his opera “Don Giovanni,” and Dvorak’s “New World Symphony.” The soloist for the concert will be Emily Switzer, who last performed with the symphony in 2013 and has furthered her musical education at Tanglewood, Music Academy of the West, Yale University and Yale School of Music. The season continues with “Leisure” on Nov. 15, the annual holiday concert on Dec. 6 and 7, the Children’s Corner performance on Feb. 2, “Romance” on March 7, “Nature” on April 18 and season-closer “Action and Adventure” on May 30. The “Action and Adventure” performance also features the presentation of the 2019 winner of the Lakewood Symphony Orchestra Young Artist Concerto Competition. “No matter which concert you attend this season with the Lakewood Symphony Orchestra, you can be assured of compelling music, fantastic soloists and great value,” Switzer said. “This season will be fantastic.” For tickets, call 303-987-7845 or visit www.lakewoodsymphony.org.

That is just the case with “Lungs,” the new show running at Miners Alley Playhouse, 1224 Washington Ave. in Golden, through Oct. 14. Written by Duncan Macmillan, directed by Len Matheo, the show features two of the metro-area’s finest actors (and real-life married couple), Adrian Egolf and Luke Sorge. The show follows a couple as they tackle questions of family and change, hope, betrayal, dumb luck and the wounds — both self-inflicted and not — that arise in a relationship. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays. Call 303-935-3044 or visit www.minersalley.com for tickets. Clarke’s Concert of the Week - Courtney Barnett at the Ogden Theatre Many think pieces over the years, especially recently, propose rock as a music genre is dead. The people who hold that belief clearly haven’t spent much time listening to indie and alternative rock, where artists like Courtney Barnett and Katie Crutchfield are making rock more inventive than ever. Barnett and Crutchfield’s band, Waxahatchee, will be storming the stage at the Ogden Theatre, 935 E. Colfax Ave., Denver, at 9 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 29, and 8 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 30. Australia’s Barnett released her eagerly-awaited sophomore album, “Tell Me How You Really Feel,” earlier this year and it’s one of 2018’s most literate and enjoyable albums.
And in September, Waxahatachee released a new EP, “Great Thunder,” full of song sketches that are better than most musician’s best efforts. Grab your tickets to the show at www. ogdentheatre.com. Bug out this Halloween If you think nobody likes being stung or bitten by an insect, then clearly you’ve never heard of Dr. Justin Schmidt. Schmidt is an entomologist who has been stung by 83 different species. Imagine that. If you have questions — beyond the obvious — then Bugtober is the exhibit for you. The Butterfly Pavilion, 6252 W. 104th Ave., will be hosting Bugtober, a Halloween-themed event that highlights the most dangerous of the invertebrates, from Oct. 1-31. The exhibit dives into species that use powerful venoms and poisons to ward off predators and capture unsuspecting prey. Some of the toxic creatures include the red bark scorpion, metallic pinktoe tarantula, Colorado tiger centipede, white-eyed assassin bugs, velvet ants, giant African millipede and orb weavers. There will also be a trivia night, indoor trick-or-treating, flash light tours and more. And prepare those questions for Schmidt, who will be at the Pavilion from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 18. He’ll be talking about the creation of the Schmidt Pain Index and has been featured on several television shows. Visit www.Butterflies.org/Bugtober for all the details.

COSPLAY FROM PAGE 14
Losty cosplays as Valka, a main character from the movie “How to Train Your Dragon 2,” and Mathys cosplays as Bandit Sivir, a battle mistress from the video game “League of Legends.” The three formed the Colorado Academy of Cosplay in June as a group designed “for cosplayers, by cosplayers” to essentially bring back the purity of the art form. The group took off in just three months. They were frustrated by what they saw as tarnishing the name of cosplay. First of all, they said, the changing competition rules from local conventions made it difficult for serious competitors to compete. Mathys also explained how the art of cosplay has been diluted by people seeking attention and by followers, using the opportunity to dress in skimpy or scandalous outfits that is common among cosplay outfits. “At a lot of competitions, there’s a lot of body-shaming … That should not be happening,” Mathys said. “Cosplay is for everyone. Cosplay is for anyone. Cosplay shouldn’t be about followers. It should be about art, the effort, the friends that you make and the community.”
Elena Mathys, left, Chris Clarke, center, and Jennifer Losty, right, are the founders of Colorado Academy of Cosplay, a group dedicated to teaching beginner cosplayers in an effort to keep cosplay an art form. NICK PUCKETT
How to get into cosplay
C
Clarke, Losty and Mathys take pride in the details of their costumes — Losty spent more than $500 on hers. To them, there’s a constant drive to approach perfection, even though they admittedly won’t ever be completely satisfied. Cosplay also provides social opportunities. Mathys goes to the Colorado School of Mines in Golden, Clarke is a lab technician and Losty works in software. “By nature,” Losty said, “we’re all introverts.” Nearby, the “Golden Giddyup” mountain bike race drew a crowd of hundreds to Lions Park. For the most part, the trio of cosplayers drew confused stares and gaping mouths, with the exceptional thumbs-up or passing biker shouting “You guys are my heroes.” In a situation when most people would feel awkward or uncomfortable dressed up as if they’re going to a costume party — as one little boy pointed out — dressing together in cosplay provided almost a heightened sense of self-confidence. “I’m not super social,” Mathys said. “Personally, going out and seeing people, talking to strangers isn’t something I do on the normal. There’s strength in numbers. You know you’re not being singled out. There’s support from people behind you.”

September 27, 2018 School crisis expert Dr. Scott Poland talks to residents of the south metro Denver area about teen suicide prevention and parenting in the digital age. Hosted by three Douglas County organizations, the special event took place Sept. 19 at the Family Resource Pavilion in east Centennial. ALEX DEWIND
‘Love them for the kid they are today’ Nationally recognized expert offers insight on parenting challenges BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Following the 1999 mass shooting at Columbine High School in Littleton, Dr. Scott Poland visited the school to console members of the grieving community. He did the same after the Feb. 14 school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. When tragedy strikes in the form of a school shooting, suicide or natural disaster, Poland — a nationally recognized expert on school crisis, youth violence and suicide intervention — assists crisis teams, school staff, parents and communities in the recovery process. Poland shared his insights Sept. 19 in a south metro Denver presentation about teen suicide prevention and the challenges of parenting in the digital age. “I love the fact that he said, `You are the parent and you need to be involved,’ ” said Denise Atkinson, a mother of two students in Douglas County School District, who wanted to learn more about the challenges youth face. She’s noticed that some students at the middle school level struggle with coping skills. “A lot of parents,” she said, “are afraid to ask questions.” The special event was a collaboration of the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office, the Douglas County School District and the Douglas County Youth Initiative, a group of teens who study county needs among youth. About 50 parents, teachers and mental health experts from Douglas and Arapahoe counties attended the presentation at the Family Resource Pavilion in east Centennial. Local chapters of national mental health organizations, including National Alliance on Mental Illness and American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, offered resources on site. DCSD Superintendent Thomas Tucker, the opening speaker, described a phone call he received two days earlier from a mother who was at a hospital because her child had at-
tempted suicide. “This is serious business when we talk about the mental health needs of our students,” Tucker said. Poland, a professor of psychology at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, shared facts and statistics on national trends and public health concerns in youth. A father of four, he also shared personal experiences as a parent and from his childhood. “Somehow, I’m pretty sure all of us here tonight have been affected by suicide,” Poland said. “I was 25 years old when my father died by suicide.” Poland touched on a number of topics, from bullying to family dynamics to teen depression. He emphasized the importance of talking about suicide, which is the second leading cause of death in teens in the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports. He advised parents to monitor and restrict kids’ technology use, especially at night in the bedroom. Pulling from his own experience, he encouraged divorced parents to make a pact to never talk badly about one another in front of their children. “Every milestone, everybody is there, sitting next to each other,” said Poland, who made a similar agreement with his ex-wife. “Isn’t that what every kid deserves?” He urged parents to ask questions and have the hard discussions. “Respond, don’t react,” Poland said. “Reach out, don’t preach.” For Daniel McGuire, who has a 14-year-old daughter in Douglas County, the presentation affirmed his beliefs on teens and excessive technology use. He appreciates the district’s effort to offer free events on mental and physical health. “I figure if they are going to make resources available, I might as well take advantage of it,” McGuire said. “It’s a shame there are still open seats.” At the core of Poland’s presentation was compassion. Kids need to have trusted adults in their lives, he said. They need to feel connected, involved and cared for. “Go home and tell your sons and daughters they are the ones you always wanted and that you love them for who they are today,” Poland said. “Love them for the kid they are today.”

a second language and weekly adult conversation groups to practice English. The libraries also host citizenship-preparation classes twice a year. In the past two years, Douglas County Libraries has hosted three naturalization ceremonies at its locations across the county, according to Tiffany Curtin, adult literacy specialist at James H. LaRue Library, 9292 S Ridgeline Blvd. “We see ourselves as a hub in the community,” Curtin said. “We want to be part of life celebrations and transitions.” The Sept. 15 naturalization ceremony welcomed people from Canada, China, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Germany, Thailand, Honduras, India, Iran, Israel, Mexico, Netherlands, Philippines, Romania, Singapore, United Kingdom and Vietnam.

An advantage to the open shows is that more people in the arts communities become aware of this nice gallery, converted from its historic past use during the bicentennial year by guild members to give it a new life. Membership has increased recently, drawing both painters and photographers — and a few, such as potters, who work in three dimensions. Youmans selected “Joaquin,” a monochrome photograph by Ron Cooper, as Best of Show. The portrait of a handsome, dignified American Indian man, with a blanket around his shoulders, wearing lots silver jewelry, leads a viewer to start making up stories about him right away. (That would certainly indicate the “feeling something” Youmans mentions.) What is he thinking about? What do those intense dark eyes see out there? Is he about to speak? First Place winner is Claudia Courtney’s “Sunflowers at Sunset” a happy-looking field of yellow, printed on aluminum, which gives a lively high-gloss finish. They look sort of like a garden on the road to Oz, with mountains in the background! Magical. Second Place went to Lowell Baumunk for “Madrid,” an archival inkjet print. and Third Place was awarded to Claudia Courtney’s “Keys in the Ignition,” an imaginative look at a rusty old dashboard

When we live and work with the intention of doing our best, and doing our best for others, the odds are high that we will have a positive impact on someone’s life. As a matter of fact, I will bet that you already have, you have made a difference and the world is a better place for it. And that one person who you were a difference maker for, probably tells your story over and over again and you don’t even know it. That’s OK, because we don’t need to know it, it’s just about recognizing that we have the power to be a difference maker and change lives in all that we do. A word, a hug, living by example, giving hope and encouragement, sharing a life lesson, giving someone a second chance, sharing our faith, offering unconditional love and forgiveness, and mentoring someone through a tough situation or opportunity, all of these and more are ways that we, you, are already changing lives for the betaccept radioactive waste, smoke detectors, electronic waste of any kind, scrap metal, oil drums, asbestos or explosives. Individuals or community group volunteers are greatly needed at this event to help with registration, vehicle off-load and waste processing. Volunteers are allowed to dispose of

Now look at the word “trust” again, look at the two letters in the middle, “us.” We are all in this together, we are all the “us” in “trust.” We may not even know we are doing it, and some of us are very intentional about doing it, but if we can all remember that what we do and say, each and every day, has the ability to make all the difference to at least one person, that by itself makes all the difference. So how about you? Has someone made a difference in your life? Do you know where you have made a difference? As always, I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can remember that what we do and say each day counts, it really will be a better than good week.

T
homas Hoy is an old-school guy. The Douglas County High School boys soccer goalie and captain plays any chance he can get — even if that means juggling and practicing ball tricks in his free time. He’s a four-year varsity player for the Huskies and the team’s undisputed leader. Sometimes goalkeepers get banged up. They’re the ones diving
after the ball and doing whatever it takes to keep it out of the net. Hoy has been as good as anybody in the conference this year with 59 saves. He’s not superstitious, although he admits he has to have the same turkey sandwich and banana smoothie before each game. At the end of the day, nothing replaces the feeling playing soccer brings to Hoy. He hopes to play at the Division II level in college, but will take what he can get, because, Hoy said, “It just gives me a lot of joy.”
COACH’S TAKE: ‘He’s been a leader the last two years I’ve been here and a captain. He’s basically our wall in the back. He’s our wall that keeps as much out as possible. Last night (Sept. 20 against Legend) he played fantastic. Even though we ended up losing the game (3-2), he kept us from being worse than what it was. Put us in overtime. Great young man. Great player’ Randy Freeman Coach of Douglas County boys soccer
Q&A with Hoy What to you would be a good day as a goalie? Good day as a goalkeeper would be to make a few saves, don’t let them score, and put some balls in the back of the net for us. What do you love about soccer? Soccer is everything to me. It’s the adrenaline I get, the feeling when I go to school and know that I have soccer practice after. It just gives me a lot of joy. Do you play FIFA (soccer video game)? I don’t actually, I still own a Wii. I’m old school. I don’t play any of the new video games What do you do with your free time? I’m usually hanging
out with my girlfriend. Sometimes I’ll do some juggling, some freestyle tricks with the ball out in the front yard. Is there a player you look up to or emulate? I definitely look up to Tim Howard, the goalkeeper for the Colorado Rapids. I’ve looked up to him for a while now. Ever since the Belgium game in the 2014 World Cup, that was just a really good game to look after because he made a ton of saves. Are you a pretty superstitious guy? Not really. I usually wear my captain armband on my right side, but nothing other than that.

Key stats | Hoy has 59 saves this season, as of the Sept. 18. In his career, he’s averaged 7.7 saves per game for a 34 percent goals allowed percentage, per opponent shots on goal.
ormer Major League Baseball player Alex Rodriguez hit a home run with his comment that hard work doesn’t guarantee success but without it you don’t have a chance. Several hard-working area golfers will be among the individual contenders at the three boys state high school OVERTIME golf tournaments set for Oct. 1-2 after posting low scores in regional qualifying tournaments. Two of those individuals are Arapahoe’s Jack Tickle and Riley Jim Benton Rottschaefer, who tied for medalist honors at the Sept. 19 Class 5A Southern Regional with 1-under-par scores of 71 at Murphy Creek Golf Course and led the Warriors to the regional team title. “Jack was really serious about this golf season,” said Arapahoe coach Harry Buckner. “He practiced every day this summer and played in many tournaments. He would call other players on the team at eight o’clock in the morning and ask them if they wanted to hit balls. He deserves the season he is having. He worked hard and he is as steady of a golfer as I have ever had and has a good chance at state. “Riley hits the ball a mile. He is left-handed and has a left-hander’s mentality. There isn’t a par-five that he can’t reach in two. Jack and Riley both have complete games, length, finesse and touch.” The 5A state tourney will be at the Colorado Springs Country Club while the 4A state event is set for The Club at Flying Horse in Colorado Springs. The Boulder County Club host sthe 3A tournament. And, after looking at regional scores that I can only write about and never shoot, it appears there are dozens of individuals and several teams that have a chance to capture top honors assuming they work hard on the golf course for two October days. Valor Christian’s Jake Welch carded a 4-under-par 68 at Legacy Ridge for the low round at the Central Regional on Sept. 17 and helped the Eagles tie for the team title which Fairview won in a playoff.

Senior Cole Oster gained 139 yards on 28 carries. Junior Jordan Jackson scored five touchdowns and ran for 118 yards on 23 carries. • The volleyball team rebounded from a 3-1 loss to Highlands Ranch on Sept. 18 with a 3-1 victory over ThunderRidge on Sept. 20.

Tarek Salem of Highlands Ranch was in a four-player tie for second at the Western Regional held at Redlands Mesa Golf Club with a 1-over-par 73. He was also deadlocked with Jack Larson and Gage Messingham of Ralston Valley, who sparked the Mustangs to the team title. Horizon’s Ryan Bomareto was the individual winner with a 1-under 71. “Jack and Gage played a very smart round,” said Ralston Valley coach Jeff Wasinger. “They were both very close to the top of the leaderboard all day. Once they posted their scores, we knew we had a two-shot cushion with our number three (Ben Lenahan) and four (Trey Kirschner) still on the course. One of them had to close the deal by paring the final three holes. Lenahan

The win was the seventh in the past eight games for the Jaguars over Highlands Ranch. • The soccer team beat Chaparral 3-1 on Sept. 18 and shut out Douglas County, 3-0, on Sept. 22.

Holy Family’s Jacob Mason carded a 4-under 67 at Common Ground Golf Course to earn the medalist ribbon at the 3A Region 2 tournament and Ponderosa won the 4A Region 2 team title as Mac Konrad secured medalist honors with a 4-over-par 76 on the Silver Course at the Air Force Academy. “The Colorado Springs Country Club, depending on how the course is set up on tournament days especially the greens, can be a little tricky,” said Wasinger. “The course can play long or short also depending on where they set up the tees. I expect the top scorers to be breaking par but probably not as many as in the four regionals and also probably not as low.”
Anything can happen and has happened at state tournaments. “There are some good teams in the state and I think if we play “A” golf in Colorado Springs we might be able to surprise these teams that are winning the regionals,” said Highlands Ranch coach Jon Cushing.

The Wolverines have had only one losing season in 12 years. “At Chaparral we put a huge value on the `Chap Fam,’” said Amanda West, who has been head coach at Chaparral for the past four seasons. “Most of these girls on the current team have played together for a few years and we feel like we have created a small family.” Lutheran, coached by Alicia Oates, won Class 2A state titles in 2011 and 2012 and was a 3A state runner-up last season under Oates’ mentorship. The Lions were a 2A runner up in 2013. Ponderosa won the 5A state championship in 2009 and has been a state contending threat in most seasons despite dropping down a classification.

September 27, 2018 Cpl. Andrew Montes of the Lone Tree Police Department, left, serves up his mother’s recipe for green chicken chili, made with green tomatillos, jalepenos, serranos and “a lot of love,” Montes said, to Cmdr David Brown, right. NICK PUCKETT
Chili cook-off raises money for fallen officers Some of Douglas County’s top chili cooks gathered at Schweiger Ranch Sept. 15 for the second annual Hometown Heroes Chili Cook-Off and Family Festival. The event, hosted in conjunction with the Douglas County Elks, Castle Rock Kiwanis and Castle Rock Knights of Columbus, raised money for the Fallen Officer Fund, a charity that provides financial support for the families of fallen law enforcement officers. “With all that goes on in the world, and all the tragic events, it’s nice to look forward to something to bring the community together with law enforcement,” said Cpl. Andrew Montes of the Lone Tree Police Department. Last year the cook-off raised more than $7,200 for the fund. All police agencies in Douglas County, including Lone Tree, Parker and Castle Rock police departments as well as the Douglas County Sheriff ’s office, were in attendance. Various groups donated items for auction for charity, including police and deputy ride-alongs and gift baskets.
The cook-off began as a pancake breakfast fundraiser to raise money for Dan Brite, a detective with Douglas County Sheriff, who was shot in September 2016. The fundraiser raised more than $6,000 and the following year the group hosted the first Hometown Heroes Chili Cook-Off. Live music, beer and games complemented the abundance of chili recipes. Whether doused with cheese and sour cream, scooped with a tortilla or smothered on a hot dog, people sampled and savored their favorite chilis. The recipes ranged in secrets from cinnamon and coffee bean to flourbased spice (unleashing the heat in the back of one’s throat) or just plain old Anaheim peppers and a lot of love. Close to a hundred people drifted about Schweiger Ranch — a historic ranch property on Havana Street south of RidgeGate Parkway — tasting all the different recipes, placing counting beans in the jars of their favorite booths and coming around for seconds and thirds. In the end, it was the Douglas County Elks who walked away with the coveted prize of the people’s choice for best chili.

King Features Weekly Service
September 24, 2018
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your Aries charm helps persuade others to listen to your proposal. But it’s still a long way from acceptance, unless you can stand up to the tough questions that are set to follow. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Plan to share a weekend getaway from all the pressures of your hectic workaday world with a very special someone. You could be pleasantly surprised at what develops. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your keen insight once again helps you handle a challenging situation with a clearer perception of what it’s really all about. What you learn helps you make a difficult decision. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) If you want to steer clear of getting involved in a new family dispute, say so. Your stand might cause hurt feelings for some, but overall, you’ll be respected for your honesty. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Expect recognition for your efforts in getting a project into operation. Besides the more practical rewards, your Lion’s heart will be warmed by the admiration of your colleagues. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Set aside time to rid yourself of clutter that might well be drawing down your creative energies. Consider asking someone to help you decide what stays and what goes.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A colleague could make a request that might place you in an awkward position with co-workers. Best advice: Share your concerns with an associate you can trust. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Your energy levels are way up, allowing you to take on the added challenge of a task you’ve been hoping to secure. Expect this move to lead to an important opportunity. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your continuing sense of confidence in what you’ve set out to do gives encouragement to others. Expect to see more people asking to add their efforts to yours. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You might think it would be best to reject a suggestion that others insist would be unworkable. But you might be surprised by what you find if you give it a chance. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Changing a decision might disappoint some people, but the important thing is that you be honest with yourself. Don’t go ahead with anything you have doubts about. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) There could be some fallout from an emotional confrontation that you really should deal with before moving on. Best to start fresh with a clean, clear slate. BORN THIS WEEK: Your honesty not only helps you make decisions for yourself, but also helps others find the right choices for themselves.

The Draft EA evaluates the environmental impacts of the proposed action and three alternatives. Under the proposed application, IREA would rebuild and upgrade the existing 44-kilovolt (kV) transmission line to 115 kV from the west side of Kenosha Pass near Jefferson, CO to the Roberts Tunnel Power Generation Station near Grant, Colorado. The existing facilities were initially constructed in 1938 and in 1958, and are nearing the end of their serviceable life. The line would be rebuilt using single-pole steel structures and construction activities would generally be contained to IREA’s existing permitted right-of-way and temporary access routes. Alternatives to the proposed action include using taller structures to span sensitive wetlands (Alternative 2), establishing a portion of new rightof-way north of U.S. Route 285 to avoid wetlands (Alternative 3), and the No Action Alternative. The Draft EA and supporting documents can be accessed from the following website: https://www.fs.usda.gov/project/?project=52798. To obtain a hardcopy of the Draft EA please contact Jennifer DeWoody, NEPA Planner, at jadewoody@fs.fed.us or by phone at 719-4774217.
