A commissioner resolution killed a grassroots effort to restructure county government with Home Rule during Tuesday’s board meeting, and it remains unclear if the movement might be successfully resurrected during a special election next year.

“At this point, the Home Rule advocates are looking forward to the possibility of a BoCC (Board of County Commissioners) resolution and a special election ballot next year. I think that pulling it off the November ballot, given the work that has been done to date, the BoCC will be perfectly poised to consider placing it on a ballot next year,” wrote Home Rule organizer Teddy Herzog in an e-mail to Archuleta County Commissioner Bob Moomaw.

But, in order to access the ballot again, Home Rule organizers will have to either mount another successful petition campaign, or convince the board of county commissioners to bring it to the fore themselves. With two commissioners’ seats up for grabs in the 2008 general election, it is unclear whether the new board will have the desire or the political will to bring Home Rule to the ballot on their own. Thus, Home Rule advocates may be facing another petition drive.

At its simplest, Home Rule allows for a restructuring of county government such that certain or all elected officials could become hired employees. Proponents say Home Rule allows for a more streamlined, nimble form of government better capable of addressing the needs of its citizens.

Despite political and procedural successes in the spring and mid summer, the prospect of moving county government closer to Home Rule looked grim last week when Archuleta County Clerk June Madrid began checking petitions for those who sought positions on the Home Rule Charter Commission via the general election ballot.

Initially, Madrid noted a shortage of candidates for the state-mandated, 11-member panel, however, further examination led to a number of disqualifications.

Madrid said the disqualifications occurred largely because the petitions suffered critical omissions. For example, nearly all the disqualified petitioners were booted because they failed to have the document notarized. Others, Madrid said, had signatures from the wrong district, while others had statutorily prohibited formatting errors. Thus, what began as a two candidate shortage ended up a six candidate shortage, and county leadership and Home Rule organizers were left struggling with what to do next.

Herzog had initially advocated continuing with the election, but sought the Colorado Secretary of State’s determination on whether to persist with the ballot questions.

The Secretary of State’s office said the determination would have to be made locally, and Archuleta county Attorney Teresa Williams and Madrid voiced similar opinions on the statute. In short, Williams and Madrid said, without 11 members properly distributed across the three commissioner districts and according to statute, there would be no election.

“There needs to be at least three in each district and at least two at large in order to hold an election,” Madrid said.

Madrid and Williams then made their recommendation to the board of county commissioners.

Madrid explained because putting the Home Rule ballot language on the general election ballot required a commissioner resolution, it would take a commissioner resolution to remove it — hence Tuesday’s board action.

Lewis Street paving will close intersection

By Jim McQuiggin
Staff Writer

Parents of intermediate and junior high students will face another headache dropping off and picking up kids when the intersection of 4th and Lewis streets closes Sept. 11-16 for paving.

Rick Robertson, construction supervisor for NORAA (the contractors hired for the Lewis Street project) said, “We’ll start on Thursday and work through the weekend in order to minimize, as best we can, disruption of the school bus service.”

Town construction manager Torry Hessman said he has been working with the school district and town police to adopt a revised plan for school buses during the construction. While the intersection is closed, buses will pick up and drop off along Pagosa Street (U.S. 160). Hessman advises parents who drive their children to school to drop off and pick up their kids along 3rd, 4th, or Lewis Street (300 block) curbs.

“I want parents to understand that the safety of the kids is our primary concern,” said Hessman, adding that stopping or parking in front of the school or school grounds along Pagosa Street is not advised and will most likely interrupt school bus service.

Unfortunately, weather has not been kind for the Lewis Street restoration project. For anyone who weathered a dreary Sunday last weekend — or, for that matter, anyone in the Pagosa Springs area whose yard work plans were scotched Sunday — it’s obvious the area has had its share of monsoon rains. And although the rains have been good for the gardens, the moisture has not been so kind where the Lewis Street restoration project is concerned.

“Basically, we’re about seven days behind schedule,” said Hessman, “We’ve had several substantial downpours and the result has been these delays. If moisture content of the soil is too high, it needs to dry out before we can lay the asphalt.”

At this point in the project, laying asphalt (or the inability to do so) is the issue. Contractors, and the town, had hoped to have asphalt down and ready by Sept. 10, just a week after the start of school, when students at intermediate and junior high schools would need Lewis Street access to a school bus and a parent’s vehicle. However, the rain delays have pushed that target back to Sept. 17 and potentially farther back if monsoon downpours continue.

Robertson believes that, without further rain delays, laying asphalt on Lewis Street will not happen until Sept. 10, at the earliest.

Delays in laying asphalt has also pushed back the timeline for the stone pavers. Stone paving is planned for areas between the sidewalk and the street as well as on the street itself, at pedestrian cross walks. “They need to wait until the asphalt is complete before they can start work,” said Hessman.

Other elements of the project await the completion of laying asphalt, but Hessman did not indicate delays in those matters. “We don’t have an exact timeline for the lamp posts,” Hessman said, “They’re ordered but we’re waiting on the manufacturer to deliver them.”

Hessman also stated that Jim Miller, town parks supervisor and master gardener, is making preparations for planting trees along Lewis Street during the first week of October — depending on NORAA’s progress.

“We’re considering the different cultural conditions for tree planting on Lewis Street,” Miller said, “And although fall is a great time for planting trees, we need to make preparations for their survival during the winter, when there is a real potential for the trees drying out due to snow piling up at the bases.”

Despite delays, the Lewis Street restoration project is already beginning to pay dividends. According to the department report presented by interim Town Manager Tamra Allen at the Sept. 2 town council meeting, several inquiries have been made by organizations seeking to reserve Lewis Street for festivals next summer. Despite the hassles and delays, the potential revenues from the Lewis Street restoration project may eventually convince Pagosa residents that the temporary inconvenience of construction was well worth the wait.

The general election is fast approaching, and candidates in the Archuleta County commissioner’s race will field questions on growth, development and other land use issues during a candidate forum Saturday Sept. 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Pagosa Springs Community Center.

During the two-hour inaugural event hosted by the Southwest Land Alliance, the six candidates running for the Archuleta County District 1 and District 2 county commissioner seats will answer questions from a four person panel on a variety of topics, including: the role, size and location of large format (Big Box) retail in Pagosa Springs and Archuleta County, sustainable growth, economics, recycling, conventional suburban development, open space, parks, trails, town and county regional planning, among others.

The community panelists include Archuleta County Commissioner Bob Moomaw, interim Town Manager Tamra Allen, Pagosa Springs town councilwoman Angela Atkinson, and TreeTops developer Will Neder. Marjo Curgus of the Sonoran Institute will moderate.

According to Michael Whiting, executive director of the Southwest Land Alliance, the candidates have been given a list of topics to prepare for. However, and in order to elicit the most detailed and substantive responses, Whiting said candidates will not be provided with questions in advance.

The candidate forum, Whiting said, is a new feature of the Southwest Land Alliances’ annual “Saving the Ranch” program and Whiting said he intends to continue the forum into future years and election cycles.

By including a candidate forum in the program, Whiting said he hopes to establish a forum that fosters a higher level of civic discourse and citizen participation, and that demands a greater degree of detail from those who intend to lead as elected officials in order to ensure accountability in the future.

“The questions will be aimed at eliciting responses containing specific measurable actions and results, rather than generalities,” Whiting said. “Given people’s overwhelming interest in land use issues, creating a forum that illuminates the candidates’ positions on land use and development was important to our organization and our board.”

Despite his organization’s interest in serving as facilitators, Whiting said the panel will provide the questions, not the Southwest Land Alliance.

Citizens can send questions for the panel’s consideration to the organization’s Web site: www.southwestlandalliance.org.

The Southwest Land Alliance is a not-for-profit, non partisan, regional land trust.

TOWN

Council approves pre-annexation agreement with Blue Sky Ranch

Despite the fact the Pagosa Springs Town Council sequestered itself in executive session for almost half of its special session Thursday, Aug. 29, the board managed to consider and pass all items presented on the agenda.

Directly after Mayor Ross Aragon called the meeting to order, council went into its first executive session in order to consider candidates for the open town manager position. With eight candidates on its short list, council held a phone conference with the Mercer Group (the consulting firm hired by the town to search out candidates), the executive session apparently did not yield any results: after reconvening an open meeting, council member Darrel Cotton moved to table any decisions until the body could get more information.

The second executive session was called prior to the end of the meeting, “For the discussion of specialized details of security arrangements or investigations.” Although no details of the session were released, council member Shari Pierce made a motion directly after council reconvened its public meeting “To give the district attorney information presented in the executive session.”

Outside of the executive session, council passed motions presented with dispatch.

Directly following Pierce’s motion, council passed a motion to appoint town administrative assistant April Hessman as acting town clerk.

Acting on recommendations made by town auditor Mike Branch at an Aug. 26 budget work session, council agreed to reimburse itself for 2008 restricted expenditures, putting $175,000 back into the town’s account for unrestricted items as well as to allocate $200,000 in unspent lottery funds to parks and recreation expenditures.

Between executive sessions, council adopted the Wayfinding, Signage and Streetscape plan presented by the steering committee charged with developing the plan since January 2008. The plan includes designs provided by consultants Nuszer-Kopatz for gateways at the east and west entrances into town on U.S. 160, as well as directional and informational signs throughout the town. Having adopted the plan, council will consider its various elements for implementation as need arises.

Council also entered into two contracts with CDOT, the first for paving Majestic Drive, the second for the construction of the Riverwalk II project; the contracts commit $33,749 and $50,000 respectively for each project. The projects will be budgeted as 2009 capital improvement projects.

Finally, council approved a pre-annexation agreement for the Blue Sky Ranch (BSR) development.

If annexed, the town would take in a tract of land located on the east side of U.S. 84, near the junction of U.S. 84 and Light Plant Road, totaling 1,373 acres. Planned BSR development would include 343 single-family units and 570 multi-family units; a multi-use 2,500-seat equestrian center/arena; an 18-hole golf course; a 225-room hotel and conference center; clubhouse and assorted retail facilities.

The pre-annexation agreement essentially sets the stage for BSR to file a petition for annexation with the understanding that tenets of the pre-annexation agreement are, although not binding, an understanding between the town and BSR of what to expect for a final annexation agreement.

Neither BSR representatives nor town staff can say when a final annexation agreement might be reached.

River restoration project clouded by contractor bills

The ongoing controversy surrounding the river restoration project in Pagosa Springs has acquired another problem: questions concerning how the town handles paying the contractors it employs.

In a letter presented to the Pagosa springs Town Council by interim Town Manager Tamra Allen on Tuesday, Sept. 2, it was revealed that the town was billed $50,404 by Recreation Engineering and Planning (REP) for hourly expenses not contracted by the town. REP is the contractor in charge of the river restoration project.

In the letter, REP stated that it had entered into an initial contract with the town on Feb. 25, 2005, for “site visits, meetings, and design” totaling $43,450, for which REP billed the town $38,994. According to the REP letter, a second contract for construction was entered into on March 4, 2005, for the construction phase of the project to the tune of $11,400, for which REP billed $8,882.50.

REP stated that it then entered into a “verbal contract” with the town manager in May 2007 (at that time the manager was Mark Garcia) for permitting services and that billing continued until July 2008. During that time, REP stated that it had billed the town $54,404 for services that included (but was not limited to):

• Telephone meetings with US Army Corps of Engineers (COE) personnel, Ecosphere Environmental personnel, Division of Wildlife (DOW) personnel, town staff, Davis Engineering staff, and the contractor.

• One-dimensional hydraulic modeling.

• Surveying data analysis and mapping.

• Reporting requested by the town, DOW, and COE.

• Multiple site visits for wetland, access, design, survey, boulder stockpiling, DOW, and COE tasks.

• Meetings with the DOW for Fishing is Fun mitigation and design tasks.

• Additional tasks requested by the COE, including a monitoring plan, modeling explanation and data presentation, survey mapping, narratives associated with construction quantities, and additional design mapping.

• Sediment transport analysis associated with u-structures.

• Fish passage design and analysis coordination with DOW personnel.

• Coordination of wetland issues with COE and Ecosphere staff.

• Coordination of planting plans with COE and Ecosphere staff.

Council members Angela Atkinson and Mark Weiler seemed astounded that so much of the town’s money had slipped past council’s approval to pay for the restoration project.

“My quick math says that we’ve spent just a little over $102,000 on this project,” said Atkinson, “much, much more than I had originally thought.”

Weiler asked Allen, “Is it customary for the town to have verbal contracts with its contractors?”

“No,” Allen replied, “it’s not a standard practice, but they do exist.”

Both Atkinson and Weiler moved to defer the matter of the river restoration project to its Oct. 7 meeting. However, the larger matter of how the town spends its money remained hanging over the collective heads of the council. Weiler sought to mitigate the situation by saying, “Before we approve a request for any payment in the future, a department head should be required to provide documentation, a budget, something, and then pay bills only with supporting documents.”

Since the town does not currently employ a finance director, it is unclear how documentation for expenses is generated by town departments. Without a finance director, no single point of accountability appears to exist for tracking town expenses. Although clerks, town staff, department heads, and members of the board carry on their duties with no undue alacrity, none are uniquely qualified to handle town finances. Likewise, none of them seem to know who exactly is in charge of town finances.

It remains to be seen if council will draft a resolution demanding documentation for all its expenses, or if the town will designate a single point of accountability when it comes to handling the entity’s finances.

INSIDE

Hospital works to expand services, add equipment

While Pagosa Mountain Hospital (PMH) has been open and skillfully treating acute care patients for the past eight months, CEO Brad Cochennet is pushing to advance services to a higher level.

As part of the process, Cochennet is negotiating — or has established — certain service contracts, and asked the Upper San Juan Health Service District (USJHSD) Board of Directors for funding to complete what he deems the original scope of hospital construction.

Among the development or revision of service contracts, Cochennet has exercised a 90-day option on a lab contract with Southwest Memorial Hospital in Cortez, and a 60-day clause on a radiology contract with Diversified Radiology of Chicago. He is also working to establish an agreement with neighboring Rocky Mountain Physical Therapy & Sports Injury Center, Inc. (RMPT) to provide physical therapy services at the hospital.

For advanced diagnostic analysis beyond the capabilities of its own onsite technicians and equipment, PMH has been sending certain lab specimens to Southwest Memorial. However, that contract is set to expire in December.

Therefore, in light of its new management agreement with Mercy Regional Medical Center in Durango, PMH will soon send samples there. Cochennet says the change will lower costs and accelerate turnaround, while placing patient lab information directly into the Mercy system. That will expedite treatment to those PMH patients likely to receive at least some care at Mercy.

Similarly, PMH has roughly 60 days remaining in its initial contract with Diversified Radiology. Once expired, the hospital radiology department will electronically transmit images to Mercy for faster, less expensive interpretation. This too, will accelerate condition diagnosis, while affording patients prompt and appropriate treatment.

To advance care and add additional services, Cochennet has prepared PMH to accommodate swing-bed patients, or patients spending one or more nights in the hospital, after spending at least three midnight stays at an acute care facility, such as Mercy or PMH. In most cases, patients are recovering from specialized treatment or surgical procedures received elsewhere, but still require continued attention and monitoring. Often, patients simply want to be closer to home, or the initial facility needs space for more serious cases.

To compliment swing-bed care, Cochennet is reportedly negotiating arrangements to bring a physical therapist to the hospital, and has apparently asked RMPT to furnish an athletic trainer for sporting events, clubs and various social organizations. Often times, patients recovering from sports injuries or surgery require forms of physical rehabilitation that only a professional trainer can provide.

Cochennet also intends to offer simple surgeries as early as Oct. 1. As part of its surgical suite, PMH has two operating rooms where visiting surgeons will soon perform fairly basic procedures like colonoscopies, endoscopies and cataract surgery.

However, for such services to be possible, the hospital needs to purchase about $150,000 worth of specialized equipment, which is part of an open items list Cochennet deems vital to completing the original scope of hospital construction.

Although, as the USJHSD board agrees some money remains in the hospital construction fund, the items Cochennet seeks are actually considered capital improvements. Therefore, any construction fund money used in purchasing them must be reimbursed at 3 percent interest, by the end of the year. As a result, Cochennet and the district finance committee are now soliciting donations to help offset such expenses.

Other items on Cochennet’s list include a roof overlay; finish painting and professional cleaning for the former Mary Fisher Medical Center; a digital x-ray suite; an automated drug dispensing system; improved campus signage; additional landscaping; and assorted incidental items.

Many of these articles are construction-related and could be paid for with money from the construction fund. Some, however, like the digital x-ray suite, drug dispensing system, furniture and added computer equipment, are capital improvements requiring their own sources of funding.

Fortunately, some grants are either pending or available, which, when secured, will atone for at least some of the costs. Fund-raising and donations will have to account for the rest and apparently, a few generous donors have already come forward.

Aside from grant funding and available Dr. Mary Fisher Medical Foundation monies, the outstanding amount necessary to accomplish the entire open items list is estimated at $499,000.

As Cochennet presented his list to the USJHSD board at its regular monthly meeting last week, he called it his finish-the-hospital list and jokingly dubbed it the “1.0 List.” He then promised another capital improvements list for next year, and said it would be the “2.0 List.”

Organizations, agencies urged to apply for Vale grants

The Sixth Judicial District Victim Assistance and Law Enforcement (VALE) Board is seeking grant applications from agencies and organizations to provide assistance services to crime victims. The funding cycle is Jan. 1, 2009, through Dec. 31, 2009.

The board is committed to funding programs which provide direct services to crime victims and implement the Victims’ Rights Amendment. They may also consider scholarships for training that are related to the welfare of victims.

Revenue for this fund is generated from a surcharge or fees assessed to people who are convicted of felonies, misdemeanors, traffic offenses and fish and game violations, no tax dollars are used. These funds are authorized by Title 24, Article 4.2, Colorado Revised Statutes.

The primary purpose of the VALE grant funding is to assist programs in the Sixth Judicial District (La Plata, Archuleta and San Juan counties) that directly serve crime victims and assist them with emotional and physical needs to stabilize their lives, provide a measure of safety and security, and/or enhance victims’ experience with the criminal justice system.

You may request a grant application by contacting the VALE Board administrator, Jane Foy, at (970) 247-8850, foyj@co.laplata.co.us, or by picking up an application at the District Attorney’s Office, 1060 Main, Suite 205, in Durango. Application deadline is 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 3.

CPUC approves SourceGas rate increase

SourceGas Distribution LLC (SourceGas) today announced that the Colorado Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has approved a general rate increase to the non-gas component of its rates effective Sept. 1. The new rates will help offset significant increases in the costs associated with providing natural gas service to approximately 85,000 SourceGas customers across Colorado. The bill for a typical residential customer will increase approximately $3 to $12 per month. Individual customers may experience an increase that is lower or higher, depending on the amount of gas they use. The last general rate increase in Colorado was filed 14-18 years ago depending on the service area.

This increase affects the non-gas component of a monthly bill including the monthly Customer Charge and the volumetric Distribution Charge. The Customer Charge is the same month-to-month. The Distribution Charge is a fixed rate that is applied to the amount of gas used each month. The increase does not affect the largest portion of the bill, the natural gas commodity costs, which are based on market prices and currently account for 70 to 80 percent of the total monthly bill.

“We have been able to operate without increasing the distribution rates for our customers for many years and make service improvements by effectively managing our costs,” said Dan Watson, president and CEO of SourceGas. Watson added that “We are committed to working safely, responsibly and to keep costs in check for our customers. A thorough analysis, however, has demonstrated that we cannot continue to absorb these higher costs and must adjust our rates in order to keep pace.”

Watson further explained, “The newly approved rates also shift a portion of non-gas costs away from that part of the bill that is tied to volume fluctuations. This will help stabilize customer bills, reduce the impact of winter heating bills by spreading more of our cost recovery over the rest of the year and lessen the impact of the volatile commodity prices we’ve seen recently.”

STS seeks exchange student host families

International high school exchange students are coming to study in the Pagosa Springs area during the 2008-09 school year.

These students will integrate themselves into a Pagosa Springs area family with the goal of experiencing American culture as an American high school student does. In turn they will provide insight into their own culture.

STS Foundation, a non-profit student exchange organization, is proud to help facilitate these relationships. They have been doing so for the past 20 years and look forward to finding new host families in Pagosa Springs and connecting them with exchange students. Students like Pierre, who is a 16-year-old from Libourne, France. He loves participating in tennis tournaments and also enjoys skiing, soccer and volleyball. He is eager to meet American people and take part in their experience. Louise is a 17-year-old from Stockholm, Sweden, who loves playing and coaching tennis. She also enjoys participating in track and field events and is excited to experience the “school spirit” of an American high school. They are both excellent students and will have their own spending money and health insurance.

The host family provides a separate bed, family meals and a safe environment. 

If your family is interested in being a host family, call (800) 522-4678, or send an e-mail to lillian@stsfoundation.org. For more information visit www.stsfoundation.org.

Ride Share Program Web address changes

A regional Web site that connects individuals who need rides with individuals willing to share their vehicle has changed its site address.

The Ride Share Program began in the late 1990s, and was reintroduced in early 2008 after being dormant for the last several years.

Ride Share allows people throughout southwest Colorado to identify commuters with whom they might share transportation to and from work, school and other activities and appointments. Spam on the original Web site made changing the address necessary.

The Web site is now www.durangorideshare.org, or Ride Share can also be reached from a link on the Region 9 Economic Development District’s Web site, www.scan.org. The Web site contains a simple form that will match your transportation inquiry to other users. No personal information is made available, but e-mail addresses will link potential riders.

For more information, you can contact Region 9 at 247-9621.

LPEA offers solar system rebate program

La Plata Electric Association (LPEA) is accepting applications for solar domestic hot water heater rebates, according to LPEA Marketing and Communications Specialist Indiana Reed.

Archuleta county residents planning to install solar domestic hot water systems on their primary homes will be eligible for rebates ranging between $1,500 to $3,000 depending on the size of the solar thermal system. Systems generally range in price between $7,000 and $12,000.

Residents may also qualify for federal tax credits up to $2,000 through the end of 2008 for the installation of those systems.

Equipment for the solar hot water system must be Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC) approved and LPEA or The Four Corners Office for Resource Efficiency (4CORE) will inspect the system prior to issuing the rebate.

“The rebates will be given for installation of new systems on homes, and are not retroactive,” said Aileen Tracy, 4CORE executive director.

Furthermore, in order to qualify for the rebate, customers must use eligible solar installers; qualified companies are listed on the web sites for 4CORE (www.fourcore.org) and LPEA (www.lpea.com). Finally, those applying for the rebate must also perform an energy audit of their home to help ensure the structures are as energy efficient as possible.

Rebate applications will be accepted until Sept. 14. “We encourage those who wish to apply for the rebate to set an appointment with a trained installer as soon as possible,” said Tracy.

Should the number of applications received exceed the available grant monies, a lottery will be determine how the grants are allocated.

Applications can be downloaded at www.fourcore.org/rebate_programs.html or customers can call (970) 799-7718 to request an application. Completed forms should be mailed to 4CORE Rebate Program, 10 Town Plaza, No. 190, Durango CO 91301. The final rebate request form must be completed by both the homeowner and the eligible solar installer.

Trooper's Tips

Reporting crashes

A few years ago, all automobile accidents were called just that — accidents.

Now, in an effort to distinguish no-fault mishaps such as collisions with deer, or rocks rolling off a mountainside, from preventable collisions such as those caused by speeding or distracted driving, troopers are encouraged to refer to the latter as “crashes.”

The thought here is that accidents really aren’t preventable, but crashes are.

Whatever terminology one might use to describe the act of causing damage to a motor vehicle, is irrelevant though when it comes to the obligation of reporting.

An accident, or crash if you will, is defined as any unintentional damage or injury caused by the movement of a vehicle or its load, and in Colorado the driver must report any such accident or crash by calling the police immediately. If cell service is unavailable, then a drive to the nearest phone is permissible.

Failure to report a crash could result in a loss of your driver’s license, so if ever in doubt please call.

School district receives Growth Model summary data

The Colorado Department of Education (CDE) released the 2008 Colorado Growth Model summary data for districts and schools on Aug. 21., and Archuleta County’s students are “making good growth,” according to Assistant Superintendent Bill Esterbrook. “But the results indicate that in our district, we have a lot of work to do.”

The data from the Colorado Growth Model Summary are garnered from the results of the Colorado Student Assessment Program (CSAP).

The growth model provides a means for educators to determine how much growth a student has made from one year to the next; in addition, the model compares each student’s performance to students across the state with similar CSAP scores, and places the student in a growth percentile.

“We can see, how did this student do compared with the rest of Colorado?” said Esterbrook.

State and district-wide data are available to the public, but the scores of individual students are protected by privacy laws and available only to educators. Esterbrook said the data will give teachers a “good idea of where their kids are.”

The data are available for grades four through 10, and consist of reading, writing, and math categories.

In 2008, the area with the highest local growth percentile is sixth-grade math, with 67.5 percent growth (meaning 32.5 percent of sixth-graders across Colorado made better growth). This number leapt from 39 percent in 2007.

The 10th-grade math fell in at the lowest, with a 32nd growth percentile, a steep drop from 58.5 percent in 2007 and 72.5 in 2006.

Esterbrook said that, in most areas, district students are achieving the typical growth level of 50 percent or higher.

“But there are areas that definitely need to grow,” he said. “Or areas that show above typical growth, but have a drop from the previous year.”

According to Esterbrook, the growth model helps teachers keep track of individual students, but “the crux of the thing” is that the model allows the district to examine where programs and achievement plans are working, and where they are not. Programs that are working will be supported and perhaps expanded, and those that are not will be examined.

This is the first year the growth model summaries have been reported, so Esterbrook said schools will not be rated. However, in future years, each school will get a rating: high achievement with high growth, high achievement with low growth, low achievement with high growth, or low achievement with low growth.

“It’s going to really allow districts to look at areas that are succeeding, areas where we need support, and the needs of each kid,” said Esterbrook.

Collectively, it is the intent of this County to define these prohibited activities as “nuisances”.

Application:

These provisions shall apply to any establishment, as defined hereinafter, throughout the County as authorized pursuant to C.R.S. 30-15-401 wherein any of the conditions hereinafter specified are found to exist; provided, however, that any condition which would constitute a violation, but is duly authorized under any other County, State, or federal law, is and shall be an affirmative defense to prosecution.

This ordinance shall apply to all zones and classifications of property within the unincorporated limits of Archuleta County; with the exception of actively farmed agricultural properties, as designated by the County Assessor.

SECTION C. Nuisances.

It shall be unlawful to cause or maintain a “nuisance”.

The transport of any materials identified by or inferred within this ordinance which are not properly secured.

SECTION D. Responsibility for Maintenance.

Applicability:

Every owner, occupant, lessee or holder of any possessory interest in an establishment within the County’s jurisdiction is required to maintain their structures and premises so as not to create or maintain a nuisance, as defined herein.

Liability for Violation:

Enforcement action may be brought against both or either the occupant or owner of any property found to be in violation of this ordinance.

However, the owner shall remain liable for violation hereof regardless of any contract or agreement with any third party regarding such establishment or the occupation of the establishment by a third party.

Enforcement:

Enforcement is an administrative action for abatement. The County, by and through it’s Enforcement Officer[s] are delegated authority to inspect for and enforce these regulations under authority granted the County.

The County has, by the adoption of this ordinance, the authority to seek the recovery and collection of all fines and costs associated with enforcing these regulations and to carry out any and all acts as required in securing compliance and abatement as specified herein.

Should the County be required to abate the nuisance because it was not abated after due notice, then this shall be treated as a violation of law and prosecuted and adjudicated according to those procedures and penalties identified herein, and as well as all applicable penalties generally such as may be deemed appropriate by the court of jurisdiction to compel compliance and restitution.

SECTION E. Complaints.

Complaints from the Public.

Any person may file a complaint alleging a violation of these regulations. Such complaint shall be in writing and signed by the complainant. The County shall not be obligated to investigate anonymous complaints or complaints not filed in writing.

Enforcement Officers:

The Enforcement Officer[s] designated by the County under this ordinance may act to investigate any complaint when provided with information by law enforcement, health services or other governmental and quasi-public entities, and/or where there is reasonable information to believe that a violation effecting public health, safety, or welfare exists, or where in the normal conduct of their duty the Enforcement officer becomes aware of a potential violation.

Documentation of Complaints:

All complaints shall be logged and recorded on written forms approved by the County.

Those complaints deemed incomplete, erroneous or to not constitute a violation or result in prosecution shall not be required to be maintained or available for public inspection.

SECTION F. Inspection.

Procedures:

Upon receipt of a complaint the delegated Enforcement Officer(s) for the County shall perform a site inspection of the identified property to determine the validity of the complaint.

Timing:

Said inspection shall take place within 10 working days of the complaint, unless such evidence exists to believe that an immediate health or safety risk exists; where in such emergency cases an inspection shall be performed as soon as possible, but not more than 24 hours from verification of the complaint.

Investigation:

As part of the inspection, the Enforcement Officer(s) shall attempt to speak to both the complainant and occupant and or owner of the property of the alleged violation, as well as such persons and/or agencies as may have direct knowledge pertinent to the complaint.

Documentation:

The Enforcement Officer shall maintain a detailed record of all findings, including time, date, persons spoken to and titles or agency (if applicable), photographs and copies of any maps, ordinances, or other materials relevant to the inspection.

SECTION G. Notification Process.

Nuisance Declared:

If, after inspecting the property on which a nuisance has been reported, and the existence of a nuisance is determined to exist, as defined within this ordinance, then following abatement procedures shall be followed:

Notice:

A written notice that a documented nuisance exists shall be prepared by the designated Enforcement Officer(s) and the Notice shall be posted on the property, sent by registered mail and served on any person in possession of the property at the time of notice.

Failure or refusal of the occupant or owner to receive the notice does not affect the right of the County to seek abatement or prosecution.

A Notice shall be deemed to have been served to the owner if it is mailed by US Postal Service Certified Mail, return receipt requested, to the last known address of the property owner as such appears in the County’s property assessment record.

Information Required:

A Notice of Violation (NOV) shall, at minimum, contain the following:

1. A description of the alleged nuisance.

2. The location the alleged nuisance occurred.

3. The date the nuisance was declared.

4. A statement setting forth the requirements to abate the violation and the date by which abatement must occur, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from issuance of the notice.

5. The penalties for failure to abate the alleged nuisance.

6. The contact person for the County and contact information for appealing the Notice, or obtaining additional information.

SECTION H. Appeal.

Procedure:

The Notice of Violation (NOV) shall contain the contact person and method for filing a written appeal.

The owner of the identified property may, in writing, contest or provide written explanation to the Enforcement Officer, or propose a detailed plan and timeframe to abate the violation.

All appeals must be hand served to the Enforcement Officer, for which a receipt will be provided, or sent by registered mail.

If the owner receiving the NOV is unable to reach an appropriate resolution with the Enforcement Officer after filing an explanation or remedial plan for abatement, the cited party may file a written appeal, attached to the NOV, to the County Administrator.

Timing:

A response to the NOV must be filed to the Enforcement officer within 20 days. The Enforcement Officer shall provide a written response by registered mail within 10 days of receiving the explanation or plan from the cited party.

An appeal to the County Administrator can only be made after an appeal to the Enforcement Officer has been rejected, and must occur within 14 days of receiving the written rejection by the Enforcement Officer, as determined by the later of the date of posting or confirmation of delivery or attempt to deliver the Notice by US Postal Service registered mail.

Action:

The Officer signing the Notice of Violation (NOV) may, based upon a proposed abatement plan, extend the period allowed for abatement or may present a counter-proposal to the property owner to secure abatement.

The County Administrator (or qualified designee) may, based upon the merits of an appeal, elect to terminate or uphold the complaint, and shall notify the appellant in writing of their finding within 10 days of the appeal.

No action shall be taken regarding the NOV during any period between the filing of an appeal and receiving a written response from the County.

Limitations:

Extensions or agreements granted shall not be deemed dismissal of the original Notice of Violation and any failure to complete the terms of the extension or abatement agreement can result at the Enforcement Officer’s sole discretion in reinstituting the timeframe for the original complaint.

Only the Enforcement Officer signing the complaint, or their replacement, shall be permitted to grant extensions of the original NOV.

All stays or extensions, and dismissals of NOV’s, shall be provided to the served parties in writing to be valid under this ordinance. Submission of an appeal or abatement plan rejected by the Enforcement Officer or accepted in writing shall not be grounds for defense or failure to abate within the required 30 days.

Failure to Satisfy Notice of Violation:

Failure to respond to the Notice of Violation within the 30 days allowed within the ordinance, failure to provide or adhere to the terms of an abatement plan or extension granted in writing by the Enforcement Officer shall be deemed as failure to abate.

The Enforcement Officer shall then submit the Notice of Violation, in accordance with County procedures, for prosecution as a violation of law for appearance before the appropriate court.

SECTION I. Abatement.

Remedies of Law:

Consistent with this ordinance, failure to respond or comply with a Notice of Violation shall result in the seeking by the County or its designated agents, of any and all permissible remedies under the law to abate the conditions which constitute the nuisance, as identified in the Notice of Violation, and may include:

1. Seeking a complaint by the Sheriffs Office to be served upon the owner and/or parties identified in the Notice of Violation (NOV).

2. Requesting the court to award an administrative entry and seizure warrant for the County to execute or to contract to execute abatement of the violations

3. Any and all other remedies applicable to the condition to be abated/remediated and consistent with and permissible under the laws of Archuleta County, the State of Colorado and the United States Government.

Responsible Parties:

The Owner of Record of the establishment, premises, location or structure at the time of a Notice of Violation (NOV) shall be responsible for complying with that Notice, and will be liable for any costs incurred by the County therewith, notwithstanding the fact that an interest in said property is transferred to any other party(ies) after such Notice is issued.

In addition, it shall not be a defense to the determination that a nuisance exists that the property is vacant, abandoned, foreclosed, under contract, boarded up or otherwise enclosed, unoccupied or encumbered.

Abatement may be done by Private Contract:

If the Violator fails to respond to the request for abatement and it is necessary for the County to correct the violations, the County may opt to do the work by private contract rather than by County staff.

Sale of Salvaged Materials:

The County may, in conformance with state standards and procedures for the sale of unclaimed property, sell any materials salvaged from an abatement action by the County. Although the County is under no obligation to salvage materials from an abatement, as practicable, the County may do so and sell the same at private or public sale at the best price obtainable and shall keep an accounting of the proceeds thereof.

Statement of Costs:

In the necessity of the County being required to correct the violation(s), a statement of all fees, fines and other expenses, less any net proceeds of the sale of salvageable goods received by the County, shall be submitted to the violator for payment. If not paid within ten (10) days, then a general lien shall be placed in the County’s records and the County may pursue collection remedies, which may be available.

SECTION J. Penalties.

Administrative Entry & Seizure Warrant:

No entry upon private property shall be made for the purpose of rubbish or junk or junked vehicle removal or the removal of any materials in connection with an abatement process by the County and/or its legally designated contractors and agents until an administrative entry and seizure warrant has been obtained from a court of competent jurisdiction, in accordance with C.R.S. 30-15-401(1)(a)(I)(B), as amended.

1. Affidavit for warrant. A sworn or affirmed affidavit shall be prepared and submitted, along with supporting documents and/or pictures. Said affidavit shall establish the factual basis for the issuance of a warrant, including evidence that the property owner received notice of the violation and has failed or refused to abate the violation within a reasonable time. The affidavit shall further give a description and location of the violation, a general list or site plan describing what must be removed to abate the violation, and the method of disposal or temporary impoundment, whichever the court deems appropriate.

2. Service of warrant. Within ten (10) days following the issuance of an administrative entry and seizure warrant, the warrant shall be fully executed in accordance with the directions of the issuing court; a copy of the issued warrant shall be provided or mailed, first class prepaid, to the owner and posted on the subject property; and proof of execution of the warrant, including a written inventory of any property impounded, shall be submitted to the issuing court.

Criminal Prosecution:

Upon discretion of the County, a criminal prosecution may be brought against the owner in accordance with C.R.S. 30-15-402 and 410.

1. Separate violation. Each day (a 24-hour period) a nuisance exists after a complaint is issued shall constitute a separate violation.

2. Summons and complaint. A summons and complaint may be issued by the County Sheriff or his deputies upon receipt of a sworn statement.

3. Fine. Violation of the provisions of these regulations shall be punishable by a fine of not more than one-thousand dollars ($1,000.00) for each violation. In addition to this penalty, persons convicted of a violation of these regulations are subject, pursuant to C.R.S. 30-15-402, to a surcharge of ten dollars ($10.00) to be paid to the Clerk of the Court for credit to the Victims and Witnesses Assistance and Law Enforcement Fund established in the judicial district.

4. How Paid. All fines, inspection fees, costs and forfeitures (except surcharges) for the violation of these regulations shall be paid to the Treasurer of Archuleta County not later than thirty (30) days after imposition.
