Board of County Commissioners Deems Deer Creek Golf Course Eligible for Rezoning

The Jeff erson County Board of County Commissioners has determined that a portion of the land on Deer Creek Golf Course is eligible to be rezoned for residential. The applicant is now authorized to begin the rezoning process by submitting a formal application to Jeff erson County Planning and Zoning. The landowner is looking to rezone for residential a portion of the golf course in order to fund preservation of the 18-hole golf course and open space. Landowners want to build 130 single-family and attached homes on a portion of the golf course land. When the rezoning process begins, we will notify residents.

Development Update

New Rain Barrel Law By Architectural Administrator Julie Kearful

On Aug. 10 a new rain barrel law went into eff ect in Colorado. The new law allows homeowners to collect rainwater from their downspouts.

The Ken-Caryl Ranch Master Association Architectural Committee, in accordance with the state law, on Aug. 11 added the following rain barrel rule to our Home Improvement Rules, Guidelines and Information: “Rain barrels may be installed to collect for outdoor purposes. A total of 110 gallons may be collected in a maximum of two containers. The rain barrels must also be compliant with Colorado law. Homeowners are required to submit their plan to the Architectural Committee for review.” Simply fi ll out the Home Improvement Form that can be downloaded at www.ken-carylranch.org under the Residents tab then Property Improvements.

It is important to note that due to the small amount of rainfall in our climate, impurities such as bird droppings, dust and roofi ng material can accumulate in the containers. Filtering and screening out contaminants before they enter the storage container can help to mitigate this problem. The Colorado law does require that the container be equipped with a sealable lid.

General Avoidance Information Regarding Rattlesnakes

by KCRMA Open Space Manager Sean Warren The western rattlesnake (Crotalus

viridis) is the only poisonous snake on the Ranch. It hibernates in subterranean dens from late-October to mid-April depending on weather and other environmental conditions. When rattlesnakes emerge from their dens in the spring, they are very active, replacing depleted energy reserves and seeking a mate. There may be concentrations of rattlesnakes around den sites as the snakes migrate and disperse.

Consider the following points for avoiding rattlesnakes in open space and at home:

1. Rattlesnakes will use trails to hunt because their prey (primarily small rodents) use trails. Rattlesnakes lay in wait for prey to pass at which point they strike and inject poison into their victim. Rattlesnakes, especially during cooler temperatures, can be seen on trails and roadsides soaking up heat radiating from these warmer surfaces. Trail users should be aware of these facts and always keep an eye on trail edges where these snakes could be hiding. Some trails, like the Hogback Trail, are mowed along the edges to provide better detection of any lurking snakes.

2. The Hogback and Manor House Trails pass through prairie dog colonies. Rattlesnakes tend to be concentrated

Ranger Field Notes

in these areas because of the prey base. When in these areas be especially aware of the potential presence of rattlesnakes.

3. Rattlesnakes are cold-blooded, meaning their body temperature fluctuates with air temperatures. They have an optimum temperature range that affects their activity. If temperatures are outside this range, they will be less active. Trail users often mistakenly assume they can avoid rattlesnakes during the hottest days of summer by waiting until evening to use the trails. Rattlesnakes will avoid the intense heat during the day, opting to hunt during the cooler temperatures of the evening.

4. Do not walk where you cannot see what is around you. Do not step over logs or rocks unless you can see what is on the other side. Do not place your hands in cracks or ledges if you cannot see what is there.

5. Keep your pets on a leash. Keep small children near you. Dogs and children are curious and not always aware of hazards and need to be watched.

6. Western rattlesnakes are not aggressive. In most cases they will avoid confrontation by quietly crawling away. They do not always “rattle” to warn humans of their presence. It is best to rely on your vision for avoiding encounters with rattlesnakes.

7. You can reduce the chance of encountering rattlesnakes on your property by making your property as undesirable as possible for them. For instance, be careful with pet food and bird seed; don’t let it lay around on the floor or ground. This type of situation attracts small rodents, which attracts rattlesnakes. Remove accumulations of leaf litter, firewood piles and other types of cover. Keep your lawn mowed. Fill holes under patios and around your house foundation. Consider putting an enclosure around the underside of a low deck; make sure that mesh openings are small, i.e. one-quarter inch. Be wary of large rock clusters or dry stack stone walls in your landscaping; these are very attractive to snakes.

If you have a rattlesnake on your property and want it removed, there are private wildlife/pest control contractors that can help with trapping snakes, or homeowners can build or buy traps for their own use. Due to concerns about Ranger and public safety in the capturing and releasing of rattlesnakes and the deleterious effects of relocation to the snakes, the Rangers no longer respond to requests from private property owners to remove rattlesnakes. However, if you have questions about rattlesnakes in general or would like to know how to make your property less attractive to rattlesnakes, call the Rangers at 303-979-1876, ext. 170, and they can help.

For information on rattlesnake bite first aid, visit the Colorado State University Cooperative Extension Service website at www.ext.colostate.edu. Look for the Snakes page in the Natural Resource section. Besides information on treating bites, you will see tips on keeping snakes off your property. I think the best advice I’ve read regarding snakebites is, “The most useful snakebite first aid kit consists of car keys and cell phone for calling the hospital and/or poison center.” At Ken-Caryl Ranch, we are close enough to professional healthcare facilities to get treatment within an acceptable amount of time.

Editor’s Note: The following article is from the Jeffco Sheriff ’s Behind the Badge email newsletter that was published on Monday, Aug. 15.

This month, many parents have seen their children return to school. The end of the summer holiday can be a blessing for many, but we also receive questions from concerned parents and school officials pertaining to children’s safety and security. This month’s article addresses those concerns and offers children’s crime prevention tips.

The Basics • Be sure your children know their full

name, address and phone number. Make sure they know how to call 9-1-1 and how to use cellphones and pay phones.

• Teach your children how to say “NO!”• Get together with your neighbors

and develop “safe zones” where your children can go in an emergency.

• Know your surroundings and the hazards that may present dangers to your children, such as overgrown or wooded areas, construction zones, poorly lit areas, etc.At School

• Develop a safe route to school that your children will use every day, and teach your children to walk with purpose and confidence and to be aware of their surroundings.

• Get together with your neighbors and organize “walking buddy” groups for the kids in your neighborhood. Children who walk in groups are less likely to become victims of crime.

• Authorized adults should monitor playground areas, and kids should not play alone.

• If you’re away at work when your children come home from school, make sure they check in with a trusted neighbor. Teach your kids to notify you if their schedules change or if they have to stay late for a school function.

• Bullying can be an enormous emotional and physical problem for kids in school. Teach your children to communicate with you about any people or places that scare them or make them uneasy. The sooner the problem is identified, the better. Contact your school officials about any reports of bullying.

• Teach your kids to settle arguments with words, not weapons. If your children see kids at school who have guns, knives or any weapons, make sure they tell school officials immediately. Home Alone

• Make sure your children always have a safe way to get into their home. Have them carry keys in a concealed place, or give a set of keys to a trusted neighbor.

• Teach your kids how to properly use your door and window locks. If you have an alarm system, make sure your children can operate it.

• Communicate with your neighbors to develop after-school “buddy” groups and safe places for kids who would otherwise have to return to empty homes.

Bicycle Safety

Traffic Laws Apply to Everyone Source: Jefferson County Sheriff’s Website

Both motorists and cyclists are responsible for obeying traffic laws, and both may receive traffic citations for violations. Cyclists are expected to obey traffic signs and signals. Cyclists may ride abreast when doing so will not impede the reasonable flow of traffic. Mutual respect and cooperation between motorists and cyclists makes the road safer for everyone. Under Colorado law, cyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as other vehicles. If you find yourself in a frustrating situation with a motorist, take a breath and find a way to accommodate their needs. Hogging the road perpetuates the idea that the two groups are at odds.

Conflicts between motorists and cyclists do occur. If you become involved with a reckless motorist, try to remember the license plate number and a vehicle/driver description. Keep your cool and call the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office at 303-277-0211. Remember that both motorists and cyclists are responsible for their own conduct, and that both can be cited for violations. Citations for harassment or reckless endangerment may apply. Call 911 in an emergency. Bicycling in Colorado: Rules of the Road

Ride on the right – Never ride against tra�cRide in the right lane, except when

passing another vehicle, preparing for a left turn, or avoiding hazards. Always ride with the flow of traffic. Ride on the paved shoulder whenever one suitable for bicycle riding is present. Cyclists should ride on the right (never against traffic), follow lane markings and use hand signals. For your safety, do not pass on the right, and be sure to use lights and reflective gear at night.

Ride single-�leRide two abreast only when no motor

vehicle traffic is approaching within 300 feet (front or rear) or when all cyclists are on the shoulder. On curving canyon roads, play it safe and ride single-�le.

Obey tra�c laws, signs and signalsUse hand signals to indicate left or right

turns, slowing or stopping. Remember to obey red lights and stop signs.

Use a headlight, taillight, and re�ectors at night; make eye contact with drivers

Never assume motorists see you or that you have the right-of-way. Expect the unexpected; your first responsibility is to avoid a crash.

Always wear a helmetGet a helmet that’s comfortable and fits

well. Wear it whenever you ride… it can reduce the severity of brain injury in a crash by 88 percent, and it could save your life! Replace your helmet anytime it’s involved in a crash, or if it becomes worn out after normal wear and tear.

Rules for multi-use trailsRide, skate and walk single-file, on the

right side of the trail and with the flow of the other trail traffic. Don’t block the trail. Groups should be in single file when other trail users are present and should never use more than one-half of the trail to allow for the flow of traffic.

Control your speed!Obey speed regulations. Slow down

and use caution when approaching or overtaking other trail users. Riding a bike down a hill at excessive speeds is a hazard to the cyclist, as well as any motorists, pedestrians or equestrian traffic the cyclist may encounter. It can also be dangerous in areas where wildlife crosses the roadway. Keep speeds within the posted limits; just like motorists, speeders on bikes may be ticketed.

Ken-Caryl: Living in the Wildland Urban Interface

Firewise

Submitted by Daniel Hatlestad,Ken-Caryl Firewise Board

If your home is located in the natural vegetation of Ken-Caryl’s grasslands, shrub areas or foothills, you live in the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) and are inherently at risk from a wildfi re. The WUI is any area where our homes meet or intermingle with wildland vegetative fuels. In many vegetation types, it is not a matter of if a wildfi re will impact your home, but when.

Wildfi res are a natural part of Colorado’s varied forest ecosystems. Communities such as Ken-Caryl are located in areas historically prone to frequent natural wildfi res. Living in the WUI requires more self-reliance than living in urban areas. Planning ahead and taking actions to reduce fi re hazards can increase your safety and help protect your property. As more people choose to live in areas prone to wildfi re, additional homes and lives are potentially threatened every year. Firefi ghters always do their best to protect residents of the WUI, but ultimately, it is our responsibility to protect family, pets and property from wildfi re.

The Ken-Caryl Firewise Board supports education and promotes community awareness of wildfi re risks. In order to eff ectively protect subdivisions and communities, all Ken-Caryl residents must work together to reduce fi re hazards within and adjacent to communities. This includes treating individual home sites and common areas within communities, and creating fuel breaks within and adjoining the community where feasible. Homeowners can take steps to reduce wildfi re hazards on their property and enhance the safety of their families.

Start inside your home – preparing your family with a family evacuation and communication plan. These steps focus on beginning work closest to your house and moving outward. Also, remember that keeping your home safe is not a one-time eff ort – it requires ongoing maintenance. It may be necessary to perform some actions, such as removing pine needles from gutters and mowing grasses and weeds several times a year, while other actions may only need to be addressed once a year.

Fuels Feeding a Wild� re The most signifi cant fuels with the

potential for the spread of � re include our houses. While Plains and Valley are not heavily forested, houses burning during a major wildfi re event in Ken-Caryl can spread the fi re rapidly to other homes. The 2012 Waldo Canyon Fire is an example of the rapid spread of fi re from house-to-house in a neighborhood very similar to Ken-Caryl. Wildfi res spread by a combination of a moving fi re front and airborne burning and glowing embers. Building loss during wildfi res occurs as a result of some part of the building igniting from one or more of the three basic wildfi re exposures, which include embers, radiant heat and direct fl ame contact. Embers are light enough to be blown through the air (but embers the size of your fi st can be carried by intense winds commonly seen on Red Flag Warning days in Colorado).

Embers can result in the rapid spread of wildfi re by spotting, in which embers are blown ahead of the main fi re, starting other fi res. Should these embers land on or near your house, they could just as easily ignite nearby vegetation or accumulated debris or enter the home or attic through openings or vents, igniting furnishings or combustible debris in those locations.

Near-home ignitions will subject some portion of your house to either a direct fl ame contact exposure, where the fl ame can touch your home, or a radiant heat

zone. Remember, every task you complete around your home and property will make your home more defensible during a wildfi re. Always remember that creating and maintaining an eff ective defensible space in the home ignition zone is not a one-time endeavor – it requires an ongoing, long-term commitment.

Preparing for Wildfi re in Ken-Caryl: Informational and Educational Meeting

The Ken-Caryl Firewise Board will host an educational meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 14 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Shaff er Room at the Ranch House. Residents are invited to attend and learn more about preparing for wildfi res in Ken-Caryl. Representatives from the Ken-Caryl Firewise Board, West Metro Fire Rescue and the Jeff erson County Sheriff ’s Offi ce will provide information on wildfi res, emergency incidents and safe evacuation.

The Ken-Caryl Firewise Board wants the community to mitigate risks, prepare for evacuation and sign up for emergency noti� cations through CodeRED. Ken-Caryl Ranch is within the Wildland Urban Interface, and we must all prepare our homes with defensible space and our families with evacuation preparation.

Topics include:• Waldo Canyon – Could it happen in Ken-Caryl?• Emergency notifi cation systems – how to sign up• Creating defensible space around your home• Preparing your family for evacuation• Role of prescribed fi re in mitigation• Planning for pets – safe evacuation

Join the Ken-Caryl Firewise Board for an educational evening on Wednesday, Sept. 14 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Shaff er Room at the Ranch House. The Firewise Board, West Metro Fire Rescue and the Jeff erson County Sheriff ’s Offi ce will present several topics on wildfi re risks, mitigation, preparation and evacuation.

exposure (the heat you feel standing next to a campfi re or fi replace). If the fi re is close enough to a combustible material, or the radiant heat is high enough, an ignition will result. Even if the radiant exposure is not large enough or long enough to result in ignition, it can preheat surfaces and thus make them more vulnerable to ignition from a fl ame contact exposure. With any one of these exposures, if no one is available to extinguish the fi re and adequate fuel is available, the initially small fi re will grow into a large one.

One of the misconceptions about home loss during wildfi res is that the loss occurs as the main body of the fi re passes. Research and on-the-ground observation during wildfi res have both shown that the main fl ame front moves through an area in a very short time: anywhere from 1 to 10 minutes. Homes do not spontaneously ignite—they are typically lost as a result of the growth of initially small fi res, either in or around the home or building.

When fuels are abundant, a fi re can be uncontrollable and destructive. But when fuels are scarce, a fi re cannot build momentum and intensity, which makes it much easier to control and is more likely to be benefi cial to the land. The more dense and continuous the fuels, the bigger the threat they pose to your home. Heavier fuels, such as brush and trees, produce a more intense � re than light fuels, such as grass. However, grass-fueled fi res travel much faster than heavy-fueled � res.

Creating Defensible SpaceCreating defensible space doesn’t

necessarily mean denuding your property with a barren 30-foot swath around your home. In general, it entails creating space devoid of fuels and placing less fl ammable materials closest to your home. Preparing your home and property is a necessity as we are residents of the Wildland Urban Interface. It is important to adequately modify the fuels in your home ignition

Art Guild’s September Meeting to Feature Glass Artist

Art Notes

Andrea Hoehn from Mountainview Artglass

Submitted by Ronnie Seagren, Ken-Caryl Art Guild

The Ken-Caryl Art Guild’s September program will feature Andrea Hoehn from Mountainview Artglass. The Art Guild meeting is Thursday, Sept. 8 at 6 p.m. at Rox Bar & Grill, and Andrea’s program will start at 7 p.m.

Andrea’s philosophy of life might be found in a quote from Oscar Wilde displayed on her website: “Art is the only serious thing in the world. And the artist is the only person who is never serious.”

She found her true passion in glass fusion and stained glass after trying all kinds of crafts from woodworking to

acrylics, as well as silk painting over the last 25 years. Since cutting her first piece of glass in 2013, she is constantly experimenting with new shapes, color combinations and types of glass.

Andrea creates one-of-a-kind glass items influenced by her German heritage as well as years of world traveling, especially to Asian countries. Clean lines are combined with bold colors and playful elements. Products range from coasters and sushi plates to decorative bowls as well as custom panels. No two will ever be the same, she proudly proclaims. She also teaches classes in fused glass basics and jewelry.

Andrea’s presentation will focus on “painting” with glass powder. It promises to be both interesting and creative. You can check out Andrea’s work at mountainview-artglass.com. For more information on the Ken-Caryl Art Guild, visit www.kencarylartguild.org.

TRAILS Youth Committee Accepting Applications

Youth Programs

Members of the TRAILS Youth Committee volunteered at the annual Ken-Caryl Ranch Easter Egg Hunt in March.

A student leadership committee designed for 7th-9th graders as a long-term program where students grow and learn together, the KCR TRAILS (Teens Rising Above in Leadership & Service) Youth Committee aims to build character, develop leadership skills, and serve the Ken-Caryl and surrounding area through community service/involvement. This program is an extension of our Middle School and High School Leadership Corps summer program.

Do you have a youth leader at home? Does your student demonstrate initiative and passion for the greater good? Applications for the TRAILS Youth Committee are being accepted now through Sept. 16 and can be found online at www.ken-carylranch.org. To apply for the 2016-2017 school year, please submit your application to Kailey Bucher at [email protected].

According to the U.S. Department of Labor February 2015 report, approximately 62.8 million people volunteered in the U.S. between September 2013 and September 2014. Of those who volunteered, 22 percent were under the age of 18. Now more than ever, youth are recognizing the importance of service both for their communities and for their own personal growth.

How Will This Program Work?TRAILS Youth Committee will be led

by Kailey Bucher, our Youth Programs Recreation Supervisor. Youth committee members will meet to develop the program structure. This may include service projects, helping with KCRMD programming ideas and more. The goal will be for TRAILS to be a direct reflection of the ambitions of the students involved.

Please contact Kailey Bucher at 303-979-4070 or [email protected] if you have questions, ideas or interest.

Local Organization Supports Impoverished Women and Children in Pakistan

Submitted by Shera Eddy, Ken-Caryl Resident

Since 2000, the Women’s Development Association (WDA) has been working alongside a non-governmental organization in Pakistan, the Christian Women’s Development Association (CWDA), to provide literacy, mathematics, health awareness, women’s rights, computer and vocational training to the women and children who live in grinding poverty in the Lahore region of Pakistan. This is achieved through Life Impact Classes. Approximately 5,300 women have graduated from these fi rst and second year literacy classes as well as vocational and computer sessions. There are 150 children in classes right now in six schools without walls.

WDA is partnering with Krista Kafer and Steve Kelley, radio talk show hosts on KNUS Radio, for a luncheon and radio talk show on Tuesday, Sept. 13 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church. The ticket price is $35. The program will be preceded at 10 a.m. with a boutique featuring items from Pakistan. Proceeds benefi t minority women and children in Lahore, Pakistan. A portion of the ticket is tax deductible. Tickets must be purchased before Aug. 30. For more information on the Women’s Development Association and this event, visit www.womensdevelopmentassociation.com or email WDA at [email protected].

Art Guild Member in the Spotlight:Cindy Marshall

Art Notes

Submitted by Michele Sires-DeLorean

Artist Cindy Marshall joined the Ken-Caryl Art Guild in 2015 to connect with and learn from other artists through related knowledge and experience. In a recent interview, Cindy shared her thoughts on what has shaped her artistic development and aspirations.

What art do you make and how do you work?

I am a printmaker and do my work both at home and in open studio time at The Art Studio League of Denver.

What’s your background?I began painting when I was young and

entered college at the University of Oregon as a Fine Art major. I later changed majors,

Colfax I by Cindy Marshall

but returned to art during my master’s program where I earned a degree in psychology with an emphasis in art therapy at Antioch University.

What subject/themes do you use in your work?

I like graphic and structure in some of my work, but I also enjoy humor and whimsy. I tend to work on a series and when it feels complete move on to another subject.

Describe a real-life situation(s) that inspired you/your art.

My “streets of Denver and surrounding town” series was inspired by driving down Colfax weekly and becoming fascinated with the old neon signs. It seemed to invite a collage and has morphed into a 10-part series.

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve been given as an artist?

“Push the print.” In other words, don’t be afraid to see what else it might become. It leads to far more interesting work and it helps me to get outside of my comfort zone.

Professionally, what’s your goal?I have been fortunate in both showing

my work and enjoying modest commercial success. I would like the opportunity to have my own show or share gallery space with another artist in a two-person show. My work can be viewed at Unlisted located at University and County Line Road.

Dear Editor:Most of the money spent on Heirloom

Park was not necessary. New playground equipment has been swapped for the older equipment, but it could have been restricted to the playground area. Expanding into the park created a heavy cost in trees, screening foliage and dollars. Other parks in Ken-Caryl could have used the money for landscape improvements.

The irony is that the red fl ags had been raised years ago. There were well attended meetings in the summer of 2014. Residents expressed their passion for Heirloom Park and requested minimal change or no change at all. Attendees made suggestions with regard to satisfying the disability (ADA) requirements in order to prevent unnecessary tree removal.

Replacing the playground equipment in Heirloom Park with more updated equipment is perfectly acceptable if it could be proven that it is safe enough and effi cacious enough to justify the cost of replacement. Replacement equipment should fi t in the existing playground space, and if it would not fi t then simply place less equipment or simply select alternative equipment. This would have saved those trees and shrubs which did the bulk of the screening on the north side of the park. The sprinkler system would not need to be relocated if the new equipment was con� ned to the old playground space, and this was a big expense. Heirloom Park had a nice natural appearance which everybody loved and is now being replaced by man-made items and by the unnecessary loss of trees and foliage. Why fi x it when it wasn’t broken? (Lastly, I feel children are going to get hurt with this new equipment and the old equipment was safer.)

It all comes down to LANDSCAPE DESIGN. What I observed in the early 1980s was that the developer’s landscape architect was great. Subsequent to that time the quality has decreased by emphasizing structures over landscaping. The last decade or so has been particularly disappointing. Heirloom Park was fi ne, and now it is not as lush or as beautiful. It may take another 30 years to recover. It is little wonder that Ken-Caryl Ranch is having fi nancial problems.

Jim FodorKen-Caryl Resident

Dear Editor:The Master Association Board’s recently

adopted “Neighborhood Sign Removal Policy” to eliminate neighborhood signs, unless 51 percent of residents say they want to keep them and pay for their maintenance, confl icts with the clearly expressed wishes of the majority of residents:1. The 2012 Community Survey question

on signs did not off er as a response “do you want to take out the signs.” Instead it asked whether residents preferred to maintain existing signs as is, or improve or replace. Of 1,877 responses, 52 percent said maintain what we have, 48 percent said improve or replace. Of the 200+ pages of comments following the results, only two residents suggested taking out the signs, but 50+ asked for them to be updated.

2. In November 2015, an electronic survey asking about signs received just 336 responses. In that survey, removing the signs was an option. Only 41 percent

voted to remove the signs.My questions for the Board are:

1: Given that no-one had thought at the time of the 2012 survey to ask about removing the signs, why was a new “electronic survey” asking that question originated in November 2015?

2: Given that fewer than 10 percent of KC residents responded to the 2015 survey, (compared with 50 percent in 2012), and only 41 percent of those wanted to remove the signs, why did the Parks Advisory Committee recommend, and the MA approve on March 15 the policy to remove the signs unless most residents signed a petition to keep them?Clearly, there are no compelling reasons

to remove these signs, and it is possible that the MA Board has overstepped its authority by passing a policy requiring a majority of ALL residents to approve the status quo. This is the exact opposite of the guiding principles of the Declarations (and of logic) which is to leave things the same unless a majority of residents demand change (Section 2.04G of the Master Declarations).

If we want to see our wishes respected, it is imperative that we write to Chris Pacetti, and require the Board to uphold its � duciary responsibility of maintenance (Declaration 6.05A) by reversing this policy.

Philip VarleyKen-Caryl Resident

Dear Editor:You do not need to be a landscape

architect to see that since the initial development in the 1980s there have been some questionable changes in our community. Anyone can use the eye test and compare the past to the present. This is a working ranch and our main feature is our vast open space along with our parks. That is what sells this place.

The developer made a great investment in trees to preserve a natural look in our parks, around our subdivisions and especially along our major roadways/entranceways. The blueprint was set for future development, which was to maintain the look of nature everywhere. Quite the opposite has happened.

From my observation the emphasis shifted to placing amenities with little or no regard to adding a natural feel. Stuff was plopped down with little or no screening, locations were selected to show off man-made items instead of concealing them. The natural look gradually eroded. From the parking lot of North Ranch Park the beautiful vista of the foothills is interrupted by playground equipment which could have been placed to the side with adequate screening foliage. The clutter eff ect behind the swimming pool at the Ranch House could have been avoided by better spacing. The denuding of trees and vegetation with mechanical construction equipment could have been avoided in Heirloom Park and the Community Center. Community Park could look so much better.

Landscaping should have been given the same priority as man-made additions and done simultaneously as additions were made. The template provided by the developer was not followed. With some few exceptions a culture developed featuring amenities alone, and people wonder why our property values haven’t kept up with other communities. This culture needs to

change. Priorities need to shift back to not only preserving the natural feel of our parks and subdivisions but emphasis needs to be placed on preserving the open space and the wildlife habitat/welfare. The added expense of too many trails and traffi cking all over the open space can have deleterious consequences. We need to preserve what makes this place special.

Jim FodorKen-Caryl Resident

Dear Editor:What Jeff co Schools BOND Supporters are

NOT Telling You:Jeff co schools will be asking for $535

million this November to update and add schools and classrooms. Yes, many schools need new paint and carpet, but that is not something taxpayers should be paying for over the next 25 years. Here is what you are not being told:• Over $30 million is allocated for artifi cial

turf and second gyms for high schools.• $100 million is allocated to move

6th-graders to middle school, adding classrooms to elementary and middle schools.

• Less than HALF of the bond will actually go to fi xing/updating schools.

• No money allocated to improving student achievement.

• No money allocated for adding teacher resources.

• Moving 6th graders out of elementary schools will create over 24 elementary schools with K-5 enrollment less than 300 students (the level this board was using as an enrollment cutoff for school closures). These schools will require ongoing supplemental dollars to operate schools and off er programs at equal levels to the

larger schools.• With interest, the real cost of bond

package is nearly $1 billion; our children will still be paying this off when they are parents.

• Tax payers will be paying over $200 million in unnecessary interest due to the under-payments being made the fi rst 10 years.I want safe, up-to-date schools for all of

Jeff co children, but maintenance should be budgeted for ever year and should not be paid for over 25 years. The bond will not even be paid off when new carpet and paint is needed to be replaced again! VOTE NO on 3B, Jeff co’s ONE BILLION DOLLAR bond package. Demand a more fi scally responsible proposal.

Leonor LuceroKen-Caryl Resident

Dear Editor:Cimarron residents, WE DID IT! We saved

our Cimarron sign from extinction.Over 50 percent of the residents in

Cimarron signed the petition to save the sign. The support for keeping the sign shared by our Cimarron neighbors when we talked with them in person or in emails demonstrated how much the sign meant to many of us living in Cimarron. Thanks to everyone who took the time to sign the petition, either in person or online. It’s nice to see everyone come together for a cause we believe is important to our community.

I would love to see more of our neighborhood signs saved and am willing to help anyone who wants to save their sign. Please contact me for information or help in saving your sign. [email protected]
