A HONKING GOOD TIME Alpine Wastemoves base Company to relocate to 74th Avenue, Washington Street By Tammy Kranz [email protected]
Alpine Waste & Recycling is moving its headquarters to Washington Street and 74th Avenue.
Adams County Board of Commis-sioners unanimously approved, during its regular May 12 meeting, plans for the company to build its headquarters on approximately 10 acres of land it already owns at 7381 Washington St., the vacant property north of Boyer’s Coffee. Alpine Waste headquarters is currently located in Commerce City.
“Alpine Waste intends to utilize the site for their new headquarters offi ce and maintenance facility,” case manager Christ LaRue said. “The initial develop-ment would consist of constructing an ap-proximately 22,000 square foot offi ce and truck maintenance building, constructing a compressed natural gas fueling facil-ity for the truck fl eet to be parked on site, adding an indoor truck wash bay and pav-ing a portion of the site for employee and visitor parking.”
Alpine Waste Executive Park will be located on the southwest corner of 74th and Washington. Plans are for the eastern parcel to be developed immediately while the western parcel will be used for truck parking with a portion of the site reserved for possible expansion. The building and parking area for employees and visitors will be located in the northeastern part of the property, and truck bay entrances and truck parking areas would be on the southern portion.
“The site would not be used as a trans-fer station for waste,” LaRue said. “It should be noted the use of the site as a transfer station is not allowed without ap-proval of a Conditional Use Permit for that specifi c purpose.”
Alex Orloff, chief fi nancial offi cer of Al-pine Waste & Recycling, said that this site will be strictly for headquarters — a place to locate corporate and operational offi c-es in the same manner it is set up now in Commerce City, 7475 E. 84th Ave.
“We have a waste transfer station and recycling processing plant that’s also lo-cated in the county at 53rd and Fox about a couple miles south of this site. And that’s the location we use for those activities,” he said.
Plans also indicate that landscaping
City expands electronic signs code allowances By Tammy Kranz [email protected]
Motorists will see more elec-tronic message signs often seen along Interstate 25 through-out other sections of Thornton thanks to an amendment to its sign code.
City Council voted unani-mously during its May 13 regu-lar meeting to amend its code to allow electronic message center signs (EMCS) for non-residential lots and commercial centers that are adjacent to ar-terial and collector streets.
Before the approved amend-ment, EMCS were only allowed along E-470 and Interstate 25 in the city of Thornton. Electronic Changeable Copy Signs, which allowed only text, were allowed throughout other parts of the city — these types of signs are often used for gas stations and small stores like Walgreens.
“As this technology has ex-panded, more and more busi-nesses hare taking advantage of the ability to have electronic signs,” Code Compliance Su-pervisor Robin Brown said dur-ing council’s public hearing on the matter. “In fact, we have 27 currently authorized in the city. We have received an increas-ing number of requests for the message center signs — the ones with the pictures — away from I-25 and E-470. Business-
es are wanting to use those to display their products or their facility.”
The amended sign code now allows these types of signs along artillery streets, which in-clude 104th and 88th avenues, Washington and Huron streets; and along collector streets, which include Grant Street, Welby Road and Zuni.
“Some of these clearly run through residential areas but the proposed ordinance will only apply to nonresidential lots or commercial centers,” Brown said.
No one spoke against the measure during the public hearing. Mayor Heidi Brown commented that she was excit-ed about the amendment.
“There have been a lot of re-quests for the signs, so I think this will make a lot of business people very happy,” she said before the vote.
The code’s four key regula-tory elements for all electronic signs will still apply to ensure traffi c safety. Those elements include a fi ve-second message hold time, only a fade or dis-solve method of transitioning to one message to the next — no swirling or fl ying objects, a one-second transition dura-tion and a brightness level that Brown said was “fairly low” and far lower than other signs along I-25 outside Thornton.
The city of Thornton has amended its sign code to allow electronic message center signs for nonresidential lots and commercial centers that are adjacent to arterial and collector streets. Those type of signs were previously only allowed in Thornton along Interstate 25 and E-479, such as this sign for American Furniture Warehouse. Photo by Tammy Kranz Alpine continues on Page 3

Fine reads for journey through summer You made your reservations months
ago.This was a vacation you’ve been plan-
ning for… well, it seems like forever. One of those once-in-a-lifetime trips is what you’ve always dreamed about, and you’ve bought all new clothes and even a new suitcase for it.
So why would you take just any old book on your vacation this summer? In-stead, why not look for something new by an author you love?
MaySo a Memorial Day getaway is in the
plans and you can’t wait. Before you go, grab one of these new books released toward the end of the month…
Conservative writer Ben Carson has a new book out about America’s Future. There’s a new book out, co-written by Bill Geist, too. In fact, you’ll fi nd quite a few memoirs out toward the end of May, as well as novels by Terry Hayes, Tom Rob-bins, Robert Ludlum, and Joseph Finder. And Bob the Street Cat has a new book out, too, and fans will want it.
JuneSummertime reading bolts out the door
like a teenager off curfew with new novels by Mary Alice Monroe, Dorothea Benton Frank, and Jeff Shaara; cookbooks; a busi-
ness book by William Poundstone and one on commodities; a book about Sally Ride by Lynn Sherr; and Hillary Rodham Clinton’s much-anticipated biography. And that’s just the fi rst week…
Later in June, look for new novels by Diana Gabaldon, Jennifer Weiner, Janet Evanovich, Linda Fairstein, Ridley Pear-son, James Patterson, Jude Deveraux, and Dean Koontz. You’ll fi nd a book about a dog that fl ew during World War II (and why). Learn how to do math in a fun way. Read about Justice Antonin Scalia. Pick up some new Will Shortz puzzle books in June. And learn how to use your manners when you have to swear.
For the kids, look for a new Dork Diaries installation; an encyclopedia of animated characters; a few new myster-ies for middle-grade readers; a new book about Charlie the Ranch Dog; and a book about farting fi sh.
JulyJust because summer’s half over doesn’t
mean your reading list is! Before the fi re-works even begin, look for new novels by Jojo Moyes, Susan Wiggs, J.A. Jance, Jac-queline Winspear, and Amy Sohn. There’s a new book coming out about Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio; a new book that debunks myths about sex; a new book by Ja Rule; a skinny book about crossword puzzles and why we love them; a self-help book on “wallowing” the right way; and a cool true-crime book about how amateurs have been solving cold cases and bringing killers to justice.
Later in July, you’ll fi nd more favorites: novels by Brad Thor, Iris & Roy Johan-sen, Anne Rivers Siddons, Terry Brooks, Catherine Coulter, Brad Taylor, Conn Igguldon, Stuart Woods, James Lee Burke, Ace Atkins, and Julie Garwood; a new memoir by singer Rick James; a biography on Michelangelo; a new book about fami-lies and race; a tell-all about the Clinton’s political life; and a memoir of faith and football.
The kidlets will love fi nding new Guardians of the Galaxy books; new joke books to while away the summer; the lat-est Fancy Nancy installment; and a new graphic novel by Neil Gaiman.
AugustYou’re not done yet. There’s still plenty
of summer – and plenty of time to read – left!
The fi rst part of August will see a new book by Andrew Cuomo; a new novel by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child; a new W.E.B. Griffi n tome; a new book about crime-scene profi lers; and a book about the woman behind the Mona Lisa.
Also in August, look for a book about college football conferences; a business book about getting organized and one on prosperity; new cookbooks for backyard and for fall; and new novels by Carl Weber, William Kent Krueger, Debbie Macomber, Kelly Armstrong, Elaine Hussey, Randy Wayne White, Tami Hoag, Paul Coelho and Kathy Reichs.
Get the kids in back-to-school mode with a new children’s book by Malala Yousafzai; a new Cupcake Diaries install-ment; ghost stories; and a kid’s book about paying it forward.
And now the disclaimerYes, some of these books can be shifted,
moved, or cancelled altogether. Titles can change; so can subject matter. If you’ve got a question about your favorite author, Nicely ask your librarian or bookseller – this is why they get paid the big bucks. Seriously, they’re experts at this stuff.
Have a great summer and happy read-ing!

No residents or neighboring business owners spoke in favor or against the plans during the public hearing. County staff did report that it received one letter in support and three letters/emails against. Those against the plans cited concerns about possible reduction in property value, in-creased traffi c and damage to Washington.

City receives praise for economic development By Tammy Kranz [email protected]
Commercial property vacancy rates are staying relatively fl at in Northglenn, report-ed the city’s economic development man-ager.
Debbie Tuttle gave an economic devel-opment update during City Council’s May 12 regular meeting. She reported the fi rst quarter commercial properties statistics, which include offi ce, industrial and retail.
For offi ce space, the city has a 9.3 percent vacancy rate; down from 11.6 at the same time last year. For industrial, 6.7 percent va-cancy rate, down from 7.1 percent last year. Retail space is at 13 percent and was at 13.1 percent this time last year.
“Retail, boy I sure wish I could get that one to go down farther,” Tuttle said. “We’re going to be working on that.”
She added that she has meetings and conferences lined up to promote the retail space in the city.
Despite the fl at vacancy rates, economic development in Northglenn has been mov-ing rapidly along. The city was recently honored by the Economic Development Council of Colorado at its spring conference as the 2013 Large Community of the Year (population more than 20,000).
“That was based on six new construction projects — including two primary employ-
ers and their expansions, three major ur-ban renewal projects, a new multi-family complex (12 years and coming since the last one), 58 new storefront businesses and doubling our commercial building permits as well as other things,” Tuttle said.
Mayor Joyce Downing added: “It’s very exciting to receive that.”
One of those major urban renewal proj-ects is the Webster Lake Promenade, which has three businesses open for business. LongHorn Steakhouse opened March 21; Jimmy John’s opened on April 28; and the newest opening, Panera Bread on May 21.
Another urban renewal project, the Walmart Neighborhood Market where the former Garland center was located, will cel-ebrate its grand opening mid-July.
So far in 2014, Northglenn has 22 new storefront businesses, which has added 351 new jobs.
New storefront businesses that submit-ted businesses license in April are: Up In Smoke Hookah Social Lounge at 1040 W. 104th Ave.; Stacked Fitness, which provides group and personal training and fi tness classes, at 10457 Irma Drive, Unit 15; and Medical Engineering Development Solu-tions, a start-up medical device manufac-turer and distributor, which is co-located in the Precision Metals Manufacturing build-ing at 11060 Irma Drive.

Total Beverage eyes new locationCompany to relocate, nearly double its store sizeBy Tammy [email protected]
The city’s first large format liquor store is relocating and nearly doubling its size to remain competitive.
Thornton City Council approved by a 7-1 vote during its May 13 regular meeting on a $500,000 incentive package for Total Beverages to relocate from 770 E. 104th Ave. to 900 E. 104th Ave. The store will re-main at the Washington Plaza Shopping Center.
Economic Development Director John Cody said the incentive was an effort to help a significant sales tax generator for the city “to not only expand but to help an ex-isting retail center that has struggle a little bit.”
Total Beverage will redevelop and re-model existing retail space at the Center, a location that will have 44,000 square feet, which is about 20,000 more square feet over its current location.
The $2 million expansion and reloca-tion of the business will allow it to remain competitive with other large format liquor stores that have opened in the same mar-ket area, according to Redevelopment Ad-ministrator Mark Heller.
The incentive agreement will be limited to 10 years and have a maximum payout of $500,000.
“The best way we thought to get there is to share back 85 percent of the new taxes generated by the expansion and 75 percent of the use taxes that would be paid as a re-sult of the relocation and construction,” Heller said.
He said that the business is estimated to generate about $484,000 new taxes in the first seven years. He said 75 percent of use taxes will generate $35,000.
“During that same period, the city would gain $673,000, give or take, in excess of the current taxes,” Heller said.
Total Beverage has agreed to sign a 15-year lease at the new location.
Mayor Pro Tem Val Vigil, Ward 2, voted against the measure, saying he struggled with the decision.
“I understand the importance of main-taining this particular business in our com-munity and I understand the economic de-velopments of it,” he said. “However, I also see that the increase in sales have to come from somewhere and I fear that they are going to come at the expense of the small business liquor stores in the surrounding area.”
Ward 3 Councilman Sam Nizam re-cused himself from the discussion and vote because of potential conflict of inter-est. Nizam owns Booze Barn, a liquor store in Thornton.
Total Beverage will relocate its store, nearly doubling its size, but will stay at the Washington Plaza Shopping Center, at Washington Street and 104th Avenue. Photo by Tammy Kranz

The Strasburg Community Food Bank has been in operation since 2001. The facility serves ap-proximately 400 families a month, including 1,150 people — nearly 400 children.

COMMISSIONERS ON THE RECORD
6 The Sentinel May 22, 20146-OPINION
Making a ‘healthy’ promise to myselfHave you ever heard the phrase: “If I’d
known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself?”
I was reminded of these words last week as a result of my BMI, my BP, and my LDL. That’s because I recently participated in the 9HealthFair at the Apex Center. The health professionals there recommended both better nutrition and more exercise for basic things such as body flexibility, sleeping better, and maintaining a healthy weight.
Actually, everything except my LDL – too high – and my overall cholesterol – way too high – was in the acceptable range. In most cases, I’m average for a female in her 50s. A little low here and there, and little high on some scales, but still within de-fined limits for good health. For example, my BMI (Body Mass Index) is normal and my BP (blood pressure) is excellent.
But my cholesterol – what’s up with that? The overall number has been climb-ing for the last several years and, although
that’s an undesirable trend, it hasn’t been this far out of the defined limits for risk.
Cholesterol is an essential blood fat found in nearly every body tissue. Yet, as most of us know, elevated levels of choles-terol are associated with a higher risk of heart disease and clogged blood vessels. I learned a few years ago that there is actu-ally a “good” cholesterol, the high-density lipoproteins (HDL). This conglomeration of blood fats acts as a scavenger, removing excess cholesterol from artery walls.
On the other hand, HDL’s evil twin,
LDL (low-density lipoproteins) is lurking in my blood vessels, literally. This is the cholesterol that forms deposits on artery walls, so the high level of my LDL is really concerning to me.
More than a science lesson, too, these results have me wondering why my num-bers are as high as they are. Some forms of high cholesterol are hereditary, but to our knowledge there is no history of high cholesterol in our family.
My diet isn’t extreme in any direction, healthy or unhealthy, and I’ll be interested to learn whether these are numbers that I can change by adjusting what I eat. In any case, more fruits and veggies and lean protein are just right for summer meals anyway.
But exercise … my exercise routine is, well, nonexistent. The routine part, that is. And, actually, since I returned from trek-king in Nepal around Thanksgiving time, the exercise part itself has largely gone missing as well. This time last year, I was
training for the trek by hiking at altitude at least once a week and I have yet to get back into that groove.
And, I wonder, too, could my choles-terol have been this high even while I was getting my exercise by putting down the miles every week for months? Or has it suddenly shot out of control since the holidays? Neither option makes me com-fortable, and I’m headed to the doc’s office to figure it out. I owe it to myself to take better care of me.
Fortunately, these longer and warmer summer evenings hold the promise of getting out on my bike and now, especially with my results form the 9HealthFair, that’s a promise to myself that I intend to keep.

opinions / yours and ours
Will the Rockies reach new heights?The Rockies’ winning record is taking many by surprise. We asked folks around town whether those wins will continue to pile up.
“Yes. Their pitching is better, and they’re getting some hits from their outfielders, and I think that’s going to continue to be the case.”
Rick Longworth
“I don’t know. They’re my team, but they are the Rockies, after all.”
Kenny Lobato
“No, because they suck.”Ben Clapper
“Yes, but there’s still 100 games to go. It’s too early in the season to really know.”

question of the week
Little acts of kindnessLast Saturday our daughter Nancy
brought our two little great grandchil-dren Kayla and Allyson and together they planted our four large flower pots. Yes, in the scheme of things it was a small kind-ness. But to Bob and I it was a delight to see our little great granddaughters working to make our home look nice. To us it was a big act of kindness.
That thought came to me after partici-pating in a very small act of kindness. I was in line at the grocery store while Bob sat near the store doors. The line was long but other customers sensed my nervousness over leaving Bob for that amount of time. Anyway, those in line gave way so I could get back to Bob. One of the line holdups was the guy ahead of me and after paying the $148 bill he was short six cents. Well, the clerk did not offer up the six cents shortage. Of course I took out a quarter and got him on his way. In the process he saved face and I got back to Bob sooner.
In short we all paid it forward and it was a happy transaction.
Another kindnessA few months ago I flew home to Min-
nesota for my needed family respite. Since I don’t fly much anymore I was a little nervous. On the shuttle going back to the airport I voiced my concern and immedi-ately a lovely younger lady said, “Don’t give it a thought, I’ll take care of you since I’m also going back to Denver.” Did she ever take good care of me and my luggage.
From the onset we found similarities. She lives in Arvada, works in the school system and comes from a Catholic fam-ily in Minnesota. Wow! Was I relieved to receive that kind of assistance. Maybe a small kindness for her but major for me and I thank her from the bottom of my heart.
Another act of kindnessThe other evening about 7 p.m. there
was a pounding on the door and the ring-
ing of the doorbell. I opened the door and a hysterical young woman told me her dog was engaged in a dog fight with the neighbors big dog. No amount of calling her small dog back across the street was of avail. We were both very frightened when all of a sudden a pickup truck came to a stop, the doors opened and two young men rushed to our aid, separated the dogs and placed the little dog in the arms of the distraught owner.
Before we could properly thank them they were gone. In the scary fight I found a new friend, Lucinda, who lives in the area. I’m sure from time to time we will see each other and reflect on those guys who saved us and the dogs from what could have been a disastrous outcome.
Just a little act of kindness with a huge outlay of kindness.
More kindnessTwo weeks ago my dear friend, Lois,
lost her husband. Of course we all are supporting her and will continue to offer support. Even a phone call frequently will help her through this sad time. It’s another opportunity to help someone who needs our love and prayers which are also acts of kindness. This weekend will bring forth a lot of remembering and sadness as we reflect on the loss of so many family and friends. Before the barbecue begins, let’s reflect on those who now are no longer

ADAMS COUNTY NEWS IN A HURRY E-470 Foundation doles out grants
Programs that promote transportation safety have each been awarded $2,500 grants from the E-470 Transportation Safety Foundation, a total of $20,000 in all. Area programs that received the grants include: Rampart Search and Rescue in Northglenn received a grant to replace and upgrade personal-protection equip-ment and tools needed during natural disasters, urban search operations, and training. Laradon, a nonprofi t organiza-tion serving the needs of people with developmental disabilities, was awarded a grant to purchase safety equipment and fund training expenses to ensure devel-opmentally disabled adults remain safe while being transported in a vehicle. Saint Anthony North Health Foundation will use its grant to provide child car seats to low-income families.
The foundation also provided $200 grants to seven high schools along the
E-470 corridor for after-prom activities. High schools use this grant money to pur-chase prizes as an incentive for students to attend the after-prom party in an effort to keep them safe.
The grant recipients were Aurora West College Preparatory Academy, Brighton High School, Chaparral High School, Eaglecrest High School, Frederick High School, Grandview High School and Thornton High School.
E-470 Transportation Safety Founda-tion, a nonprofi t organization, provides donations and grants as a means of pro-moting transportation safety. The foun-dation is separate from the E-470 Public Highway Authority and raises its own funds; it is not funded by the authority.
Serving on the foundation’s board of directors are Randy Drennen, president; Paul Tauer, vice president; Jan Pawlowski, secretary/treasurer; and directors Noel Busck, Lynn Myers and Ed Tauer.

Community project grows more than just fruits and veggiesBy Ashley [email protected]
When it came to creating a sense community among their neighbors, second grade students at STEM Magnet Lab
School looked outside the classroom and into the park next door. The stu-dents decided to build a community garden and asked the second-graders at neighboring school Hulstrom K-8 for some help.
“The community garden is part of the STEM Lab students’ Problem Based Learning, PBL, project investigating how they could create community in this neighborhood as part of their social studies standard,” STEM coor-dinator Tracey Calderon said. “That was their problem, and they decided a community garden could solve it and decided to invite the second graders over at Hulstrom, which is just across the park, to help them.”
STEM Magnet Lab and Hulstrom are both magnet schools in Northglenn and therefore there is no real con-nection between the schools and the houses surrounding them. Calderon said by building the garden, the stu-dents are hoping to bring together the community members of Northglenn that live in that area, as well as connect the two schools.
Wyco Park, situated between both schools, is home to the garden. The city of Northglenn donated the land, laid the irrigation and installed the lighting for the garden. Home Depot in Thornton donated materials to build the garden. Calderon said that without the donations, the garden wouldn’t be possible.
“I can’t emphasize enough the partnerships we made to get this going, especially with the city,” she said.
Just because the fruits and vegeta-
bles are planted, the work doesn’t stop for the second graders. This summer different families of the students’ have signed up to care for garden over the coming months. Long term, Calderon said the goal is to work with communi-ty groups to share the responsibility of the garden. And all the produce grown will be donated to local food banks.
“Our vision will always be to give all of the produce to community shel-ters for disadvantaged people in the community,” she said. “This garden is something students can come back to
and see even after the graduate. This project has really gotten into their hearts and souls.”
Second grade teacher Pauline Logan has seen firsthand the difference the garden has made in her students. She said her students have embraced the idea of giving back to the community.
“It’s been so rewarding to see the kids work together and build commu-nity,” she said. “We’re excited to help different organizations that need fresh produce. It’s been really great.”
Second grade students from STEM Magnet Lab School in Northglenn work together to build a community garden. The garden is a project the students worked on this school year to create community. The students also invited the second graders from Hulstrom K-8 to help out. Photo by Ashley Reimers

anchor job in Michigan, Dyer is sticking around the station on the 11 a.m. and noon news show and will be taping pieces that will air on various newscasts.
Oh, and don’t forget traffic watcher and meteorologist Amelia Earhart, who departed not long ago.
The job switch, which Dyer says was per her request so she could spend morn-ings and evenings with her husband and two daughters, takes place mid-July. Dyer has been a fixture on the morning news set for 18 years.
Dyer explains her reasons for leaving the morning newscast (with its 1 a.m. wake-up call) and her new duties in a video interview at www.9news.com/story/about-us/2014/05/12/kyle-dyer-9news-

Hotel Teatro eatery gets updatePrima, the second restaurant inside The
Hotel Teatro, helmed by chef Kevin Taylor, closed at the end of March and will reopen in July as The Nickel on the renovated ground floor of the historic hotel.
A chef-driven culinary concept, the
menu will draw inspiration from its Rocky Mountain heritage, incorporating locally sourced ingredients into rustic stripped-down Colorado fare. The decor of the space will echo the menu, featuring textiles sourced from the Rocky Mountain region, custom-made furnishings and industrial materials.
The restaurant’s name pays homage to the hotel’s storied past. With an original vault dating back to the property’s origins as Denver’s Tramway Building in 1911, the space was once used to collect nickels from customers riding streetcars.
Leading The Nickel is chef/restaura-teur, Jake Linzinmeir, a certified som-melier and executive chef. Coming from the mountains of Telluride to Denver, Linzinmeir brings an extensive knowledge of homegrown Colorado foods, having personally worked with farmers, ranchers and foragers across the state.

City streamlines approval for new construction
The city is now offering faster, easier approvals for new primary employment projects. This comes after Thornton City Council amended the City Code to allow primary employment uses to be designat-ed as ‘Projects of Economic Significance.’
“This means that approvals for these types of projects will be handled adminis-tratively. There will not be public hear-ings before Thornton City Council or the Development Permit and Appeals Board,” says Thornton Economic Development Director John Cody. “That will save busi-nesses on average, 90 days in processing an application through the City.”
This modification is the first of several initiatives to improve the City of Thorn-ton’s competitiveness to attract office and flex-space users and developers. It follows the `Economic Significance’ designation in the North Washington Subarea. “The key message in this expanded process is that building for a primary employer facility from the ground-up can happen in Thornton on a much-accelerated timeline, saving time and money for the end-user,” Cody said. “Thornton has a multitude of available greenfield sites zoned and ready for development. With Thornton’s new fast-tracking tool, employment center project development can be done without any public hearings.”
For more information contact Thorn-ton Economic Development Marketing & Real Estate Administrator Kimberly Schafer at 303-538-7358 or go to www.businessinthornton.com.

Co� man touts military, business background Republican wants to keep CD-6 House seat By Jennifer Smith [email protected]
As U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman lobbies to keep his 6th Congressional District seat for the Republicans, he’s not too worried about the new kid on the block.
“Coming from Aurora, I certainly have a background that is more refl ective of the community,” he said during a May 17 in-terview at Bemis Library in Littleton. “He moved into the district not because he wanted to live there, but because he want-ed to live in Washington, D.C.”
He’s talking about Democratic challeng-er Andrew Romanoff, new to the district but not to politics. He served in the state House from 2000-08, as speaker from 2005 on. In 2010, he launched an unsuccessful bid to unseat fellow Democrat U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet.
Coffman says that’s no replacement for real-world experience like his, includ-ing 17 years as an Aurora business owner and a military career that started in 1972. In 2005, he resigned his post as Colorado’s secretary of state to serve a tour with the U.S. Marines in Iraq.
“I’m the only member of the Colorado delegation who served in the military dur-ing the Persian Gulf War and Iraq,” he said.
He says that makes him uniquely quali-fi ed in his role as the chair of the Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, currently looking into the wait-list scandal as whistleblowers emerge around the country.
“I think (VA Secretary Eric Shinseki) should step down or be fi red, along with the senior bureaucrats that surrounded him,” said Coffman. “. … At fi rst he denied problems, then, in my view, looked the other way and defended those who were responsible. He’s never said heads are go-ing to roll if this is true.”
Coffman points to the VA House Com-mittee as a bastion of bipartisanship.
“It’s not a Republican issue or a Demo-crat issue,” he said. “I really feel they all equally care about meeting our obligations to our veterans. I don’t see any daylight be-tween us.”
At one time, Coffman was perhaps most famous for being the owner of Buckley the Treasury Dog, his golden retriever that continued to visit the state Capitol even af-ter Coffman left the offi ce of state treasur-er. Buckley died two years ago at the age of 10. But his new goldie, named Atty, livens up the home Coffman shares with his wife, Cynthia. Currently the chief deputy attor-ney general of Colorado, Cynthia Coffman
is a Republican candidate for attorney gen-eral.
Here are Coffman’s quick takes on a va-riety of topics:
The economyIn Colorado, relaxing regulations im-
peding the aerospace industry is one key to a robust economy, said Coffman. He’s working with Bennet on legislation that they hope will help American aerospace companies export their products and tech-nologies to international customers while still protecting national security interests.
Encouraging more manufacturing is another of his priorities, and he joined the Rare Earth Caucus in an effort to make that happen. The group worked to convince the World Trade Organization that China is violating WTO rules by restricting export of metals commonly used to make parts for electronics.
“I think free trade is important, but it also has to be fair trade,” said Coffman.
Mental healthCoffman would like to see a residential
center for the homeless created at the An-schutz Medical Center in Aurora, with an emphasis on mental health. Along with Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., he launched a task force to study ways to better serve vet-erans with post-traumatic stress disorder.
“As a nation, we’ve really fallen short on mental-health care,” said Coffman. “I think it has to be a priority, and it’s not just fund-ing, it’s reforming the current system.”
He says he’s also working with the Af-rican immigrant community to create a connection with the Aurora Mental Health Center.
“I want to make sure they get some ser-vices that understand their culture,” he said.
Military funding“I think I’ve been fairly independent on
that, especially because I think Republi-cans have the same problem that they ac-cuse Democrats of on this. The important metric is the outcome, not how much you spend. I think that there is a lot of waste at the Pentagon. I think we can reduce spend-ing without compromising security.”
Obamacare“I think health-insurance reform,
health-care reform, is very important,” he said. I think there’s no question the system was fl awed. But what I disagree with is up-ending the entire system to fi x the parts that were broken.”
He notes that when he was in the state

History made by many at state trackNew Jeffco Stadium track brought several new state recordsBy Daniel [email protected]
LAKEWOOD — Storylines were plentiful at this year’s State Track & Field Champion-ships.
Records were smashed, legends were ce-mented and for many it was the last time they will participate as a prep athlete, like Niwot senior Elise Cranny won capped off her prep career by winning her second straight 4A tri-ple crown Saturday at Jeffco Stadium.
Cranny won the 800-meter, 1,600-meter and 3,200-meter races for the second con-secutive year, capping off one of the iconic careers in Colorado track & field history.
But that was just one of endless great sto-ries from this year’s championships.
George Washington’s nationally recog-nized hurdler Dion Hall made history when she smashed the all-classification 100-meter hurdles record of 13.23 with her incredible time of 13.09.
The record was owned by Denver South’s Dominique Calloway and stood since 1996.
Unbelievably, it was not even her best time in the event. Hall also holds the national record in the event with a 13.01, as well as the 60-meter hurdles national record with a time of 8.11. Expect to see Hall participating in the Olympics someday.
However, many new state champions were crowned over the weekend that saw thousands of people pour into Jeffco Stadium — which received a face-lift getting a new track this past offseason, which could be the reason we saw a handful of new records.
Holy Family’s Ryan Younggreen was crowned as 110-meter hurdles’ champion with his time of 14.56.
Also medaling from Holy Family was Shea Zeman who took fifth in the 100 meter dash (12.85) and sixth in the 200 meter dash (26.40). In addition, Briana Benalcazar took sixth in the 30-meter hurdles (47.33).
Broomfield’s Alexei Cox was the 100-me-ter dash champion after her impressive run of 12.19, narrow holding off Golden’s Payton Miller who came in at 12.22.
And in one of the more anticipated events of the championships Horizon’s Megan
Moonet finished third in the 1,600-meter run at 4:58.18, finishing right behind winner from Cherry Creek Jordyn Colter (4:57.27) and Fort Collins Lauren Gregory (4:57.36).

Holy Family senior Tyler Dudden does is best Tasmanian Devil impression spinning in a couple swift circles before launching his discus Thursday at Jeffco Stadium.
Playing catch up behind two of the state’s elite on Saturday might have been frustrating for Horizon’s Megan Mooney, center, but a third place state finish is still very impressive and proves she is one of the state’s best.
Athletes on the run: State track and field crowns new champsBy Scott Stocker
Peter Gireco of Wheat Ridge didn’t come through with his best effort of the season in the Triple Jump, but when you’re a state champion it’s hard to argue with “effort.”
Gireco won the Class 4A state title in the Triple Jump last Saturday in competition at Lakewood’s Jefferson County Stadium with a mark of the 45-feet 11 1/2 inches. For that matter, Connor Turnage of Highlands Ranch is not about to complain, either, as he won 5A with a 48-9 3/4 effort.
“This was not my best effort of the year,” Gireco said. “But I’m really excited to win as this also is my last meet. I had hoped for a PR, but I didn’t get it. Still I’m happy with the way it came out for me.”
Regardless of not coming through with a best effort, winning a state champion-ship in any event for any athlete will be one remembered for the rest of the athlete’s life. And, certainly was a fine day for the ath-letes from the Metro area.
Bear Creek’s Osabisi Johnson will cer-tainly remember his title in the 110-High Hurdles as well as his seventh place finish in the 300 Hurdles. Spencer Long of Poudre
was the winner in the 300’s with a time of :37.83-seconds.
“I’m just excited,” Johnson said. “Last year I was ninth and I had just hoped for improvement. All the guys in this group are good. I came in third in the prelims — now first. Just great. My speed today certainly proved to be the difference.”
Moving down a few classifications saw Holy Families Ryan Younggreen come through with the 3A title in the 110 Hurdles with a time of :14.56. His effort also helped the Tigers to a fifth-place finish in the team standings with 52 points.
The classification, by the way, was won by The Classical Academy with 103 points.
“It was a good race to be sure,” Young-green said. “The key was keeping right on focus and not let the others get to my head. I just wanted to go out, keep going, and do what I had to do.”
Columbine’s Bernard McDonald had to go through one of the biggest disappoint-ments of the 5A meet in his Long Jump competition, and event in which he was

Legislature, he supported laws that pro-hibited discrimination based on gender or preexisting conditions, and he supported insurance portability and spreading out the risk to a larger pool.
“But I think we can do better,” he said. “I would support repeal and replace.”
Fracking“I think there’s been a resurgence in
manufacturing jobs due to low-energy costs, which is primarily due to fracking,” said Coffman.
He says safety regulations are impera-tive, but he trusts the states to be better
able to create appropriate measures than the federal government.
“The citizens have much greater access at the state level than they do to the Envi-ronmental Protection Agency,” he said.
PersonhoodWhile there’s been some debate over
Coffman’s support of the “personhood” amendment that will appear on Colorado’s 2014 ballot, he says it’s overboard. He notes his support of a ban on federal funding of abortion except for in the case of rape or incest or when the life of the mother is in danger, and says he’s opposed to all abor-tions after 20 weeks with the same excep-tions.
“I’m clearly pro-life,” he said. “I would not vote for it the way it is, and I think there are unintended consequences to it.”

ukraine PrograM Seventy years of Soviet control of Ukraine ended in 1991 with the collapse of the Soviet Union. During that time Ukraine suffered extensive famines, deporta-tion of its citizens and repopulation of its country by ethnic Russians. Since independence, Ukraine has aligned more with the west, resulting in escalating tension between ethnic
Russians and Ukrainians. Recently Russia has sent troops into Ukraine in an effort to protect their interests as Ukraine has destabilized. This has dramatically escalated the crisis. Join Ac-tive Minds 1-3 p.m. Monday, June 2, as we explore this delicate situation. Reception is at 1 p.m., and program starts at 1:30 p.m. at Sunrise at Flatirons, 400 Summit Blvd., Broomfield. Program is free. RSVP at 303-466-2422.

the defending champion. The winner was Ben Morgan of Highlands Ranch with a leap of 22-8 ½.
“I’m disappointed as I won it last year,” McDonald said. “In the finals I scratched on all three of my jumps, so I’m glad I at least had a few good ones in the prelims. I had one fine jump in the finals that I barely scratched on. My steps were not right as it turned out in the finals today. My steps were just not right today.”
Arvada West’s Stephanie Bess finally came through with a title within the trio of field events. She won the Triple Jump on Saturday with a 37-foot-11 ½ inch effort and she certainly came close in the Pole Vault and Long jump. She was second in the Pole Vault behind Loveland’s Heather Waite, as she had more misses with each going over 11-9. She was third in the Long Jump with a 17-11 effort, an event won by Chyna Ries of Denver East with a mark of 20-4 ½.
“Oh, my gosh,” said Bess, who also en-joyed playing the lead of Christine in Phan-tom of the Opera at school. “Last year was my first doing the Pole Vault in high school and I just wanted to have the positive at-titude. A third and a second today – now I want to go for first in my last event, the Triple.”
And Bess did just that.Zoe Gilbertson of Mountain Range had
one of the finest improvements a freshman could ask for in the 5A, 100-meter hurdles.
“I got a PR today and I had been seeded 18th,” Gilbertson said. “I ended up in sixth. I’m so happy as a freshman to have been
in the state finals. The key for me this week was just to have a good mindset and to stay confident. Now, I’ve got a lot to live up to over the next three seasons.”
Faith Christian’s Luke Yeager and Holy Family’s Erich Hixson placed third and fourth, respectively in the 3A 800-meters. Yeager ran 1:56.40 while Hixson clocked in at 1:56.50. The event was won by Robert Delfeld of St. Mary’s in 1:55.32.
“I didn’t get what I wanted, but I did get a PR by two seconds,” Yeager said. “The key was to hang in with the others and to be pushed.”
Added Hixson, “I got a PR by six seconds today and that’s a pretty fantastic feeling, but I just wish I could have finished higher. But I got beat by good guys and by Luke, who is a very good friend.”
here is little doubt that everyone had an eye on the Niwot Cougars’ Elise Cranny in her distant events. After all, she is one of the highest rated prep track stars in the na-tion. And, she certainly proved her worth in winning the 800, 1,600 and 3,200-meter events.
Not only that, Cranny paced the Cougars to the 4A girls title with 66 points, as well as setting two new records. She broke her own record in the 1,600 with a time of 4:47.54. More importantly, Cranny broke the 3,200 record of 10:21.37 that had been held by Boulder’s Melody Fairchild since 1991. Her time was a heart throbbing 10:17.48.
“It was actually stressful and I was very nervous in the 800,” said Cranny, who ran the event in 2:12.05. “I just didn’t want it to get to me. I wanted to stay strong. It was windy and I’m not up to it. I finally got the record in the 3.200 and it was such a fan-tastic one by Melody to break. I just always want to stay focused in what I do. There are runners out there who will stay with me for a while and that’s good for all of us.”

SALOME’S STARSFOR THE WEEK OF ApRil 28, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) You might be tempted to be more assertive when dealing with a job-related matter. But a carefully measured approach works best at getting the cooperation you’re looking for.
TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) While others urge you to act now, you instinctively recognize that a move at this time is not in your best interests. You should know when to do so by week’s end.
GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) A busy schedule keeps you on the move for much of the week. But things ease up by the time the weekend arrives, allowing you to reconnect with family and friends.
CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Travel dominates the week, and despite some delays in getting to where you want to go, the overall experience should prove to be a positive one in many ways.
LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Your leonine self-confidence comes roaring back after a brief period of doubt and helps you get through a week of demanding chal-lenges and ultimately emerge triumphant.
VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Virgos who have made a major commitment -- personal or professional -- should be able to tap into a renewed reservoir of self-confidence to help them follow through.
LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) You soon could receive news from a surprising source that could cause you to change your mind about how you had planned to deal with an ongoing job-related problem.
SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) A surprise move of support from a colleague who has never been part of your circle of admirers helps influence others to take a new look at what you’ve put on the table.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) While a bold decision to take an “i know what i’m doing” approach impresses some colleagues, it also raises the risk of causing resentment among others.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) A misunderstand-ing ‘twixt you and a friend might not be your fault at all, despite what he or she suggests. Talk it out to see at what point the confusion might have started.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Getting into a com-munity operation fulfills the Aquarian’s need to help people. it also can lead to new contacts that might one day help you with a project.
PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) A minor problem could delay the start of a long-anticipated trip for two. Use the time to recheck your travel plans. You might find a better way to get where you’re going.

Taking a look at mental healthWelcome to “Ask A Therapist,” a
new monthly column that’s unique, timely and for you. Here you can sub-mit mental-health-related questions, and therapists will answer them.
This column comes at a time when our community is taking a closer look at mental healthcare and mental-health issues. One in four adults (and one in 10 children) will experience a mental-health issue each year, yet fewer than 50 percent will seek treatment, in part because of stigma, according to Community Reach Center, a non-profit mental healthcare provider with five outpa-tient offices in Adams County. Ad-ditionally, several studies have shown that two-thirds of all visits to physi-cians’ offices are related to some sort of mental-health problem; other studies show that depression can be triggered by other illnesses, such as diabetes and chronic heart disease.
Myths and stigma need to be bust-ed so those experiencing symptoms of mental illness – whether it’s mild depression or chronic schizophrenia – feel comfortable seeking treatment and support.
Colorado has the sixth-highest suicide rate in the nation. More Coloradoans die by suicide than in car accidents or from breast cancer, according to The Colorado Trust. So, yes, providing a platform such as Ask A Therapist is important.
In this space, you can bring your questions to the well-trained and highly knowledgeable therapists and psychiatrists at Community Reach Center; they’ll answer your questions in this monthly space. Please send your questions to [email protected].
Parent seeks help strengthening relationship with grown son
QUESTION: I hope you can help. I would like to have a closer relation-ship with my 30-year-old son. He got into a bit of trouble in his teens, and although I’ve told him a zillion times that the past is the past and that I love and admire him for the young man he’s become, he seems to have lingering self-esteem issues. His negative self-perception is affecting his choices in relationships, and I think he avoids me as much as pos-sible because he still feels guilty for putting me through hard times when he was younger. Any suggestions for a new approach with him would be appreciated.”
ANSWER: It can be difficult to have an adult child who does not want to engage due to having feelings that they may have let you down and/or disappointed you. You want to let him know that you are not upset with him or that you do not hold any negative feelings toward him. The challenge for your son is he feels like he has let you down, and even though you tell him you love him and admire him, he does perhaps not believe you.
A new approach is to let him come to you and not put pressure to make a relationship happen that is not
genuine. Do things with him that he enjoys — men often are better at sharing feelings when they engage in an enjoyable activity. Men relate bet-ter shoulder to shoulder; strengthen the relationship with your son by tak-ing a walk together, going fishing or doing a project around the yard. The key for him is it may feel less threat-ening to share and grow closer when it does not seem too intense. In time you can have more of a face-to-face relationship, but that comes after you build more trust, and at this point that may be missing.
When he does sit with you, ask your son if there is something you can do differently to let him know you support him; ask how you can help him. He needs to know you en-joy him for the man he has become, and when you “do life” with him, it shows that you are interested in the man he is — not the child he used to be. – Aaron Cordova, MA, LPC, a licensed professional counselor and manager in the school-based therapy program at Community Reach Cen-ter.
