The Ugly Politics of Being the Change
by Wanda L. James
I recently read the Eli Stokols hit piece on Jared Polis “The Trouble with Jared” and I thought "the trouble with Jared?" How about the trouble with the Democratic Party. The “Trouble with Jared” is, he is a Democrat and it appears the rest of the Party has forgotten what that means.
While the Denver insiders fret about the fact that they still can’t control Jared, the rest of Colorado is cheering him on. Jared is a leader. Leadership was explained to me by my military father and my time in the military, I grew up understanding that leadership is sometimes lonely. Jared is always on the right side of being a democrat. Jared’s a disruptor, he always has been. He is out there being the change the Democrats wanted to see. And it appears he is always alone on the right side of history.
He was making the establishment unconformable when he started his schools for recent immigrants at a time when the Democrats in the state were campaigning on passing the toughest immigration laws in the country.
They were mad as hell when he proposed amendment 41 to limit gifts and free dinner from lobbyist to law makers. That pissed off a bunch of the “buy me and my friends’ tickets to all of ball games, galas and expensive dinners in exchange for my vote on your issue” elected officials. (Yeah, you know who you are)
Then there was my favorite move by Jared, he supported the cannabis industry.
He honestly supported it. He did not give the behind the door cowardly response of, “Well, Wanda, of course we support not locking up minorities, but I have tough race and I am too much of coward to actually let people know what I think” crowd. Jared was upfront about his approach. And like all of his decisions, he was unwavering and on the right side of the issue and on the right side of history. He introduced a bill in Congress to legalize marijuana only to have his home state actually do it a few months later and now the NY Times is calling for Congress to take up his bill.
While Jared is making the political class “nervous” they might be wise to tune into what the people of Colorado are saying. We are in desperate need of bold leadership and a vision for the future. To be honest, can any of you give one example of vision from any of the elected officials? Supporting Oil and Gas is not visionary.
The trouble with Jared, is that he belongs to a party that is increasing out of step with Coloradans and they are spinning their wheels trying to take him down a peg. He is rich, he is gay, he is outspoken and he wears bow ties with polo shirts. They have no idea how to handle him. And I love it. And apparently, so do the voters of Colorado.
In municipal elections, nearly 100,000 Coloradans have already cast ballots to ban or place a time out on fracking. These voters are not radical environmentalist, they are our neighbors in Lafayette, Broomfield, Boulder, Longmont, Loveland and Fort Collins that are feed up with the lack of action from our legislature and a Governor that is way more concerned about multinational companies that own mineral rights than homeowners and parents. They have taken matters into their own hands because the political leadership in this state has failed them. Except for Jared, he is listening.
I have never worked with a person I don’t believe in. When Jared and I discussed his campaign in 2008 for Congress, we decided to run on the fact he would be “a different” kind of congressman. One that is not beholden to the special interests. He continues to make me proud by proving that to not to be an empty political promise that changes his tune depending on who is writing checks.
Funny that the Democrats (and their staff hit squads) that are anti-Jared, are also the ones in the most danger of losing their seats. They appear to have no issue with selling their soul, their constituents and the person that paved the way for Democratic ideals in Colorado to continue to get a government check and free trips to meetings and dinners.
If the Democrats are in bed with oil and gas, the privatized prison systems and anti-immigration reform, then maybe we shouldn’t be voting for them in the first place.

DENVER ZOO'S RESPONSE TO UPCOMING CHIVE FEST
Below is Denver Zoo’s official statement regarding Chive Fest. (Aug. 16)
.jpg)
Denver Zoo discussed the details of the Chive event scheduled for Aug. 16 in City Park with concert officials and representatives from the permitting office of the City and County of Denver. We have learned that the concert is similar to other successful events held at the park that did not pose animal welfare issues and that the event meets all the requirements outlined in the permit. We have staff in place to monitor, respond to and care for the animals, as well as contacts for the night of the event should an issue arise.

BUY AMERICAN
In an extremely rare display of bipartisanship and unanimity, all seven members of Colorado’s house delegation have signed a congressional letter supporting “Buy American” provisions in foreign trade treaties.
The letter – signed by Democrats Diana DeGette, Jared Polis, and Ed Perlmutter, by Republicans Scott Tipton, Cory Gardner, Doug Lamborn, and Mike Coffman – urges President Barack Obama to reconsider provisions in the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) treaty that would severely hamper long-standing domestic purchasing policies.
According to the letter’s authors, Rep. Donna Edwards (D-MD) and Walter B. Jones (R-NC), the current TPP provisions would have a disastrous impact on American workers, jobs, and manufacturers, and would result in sending of billions of U.S. tax dollars overseas.
The full text of the letter can be found here.
The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a massive trade treaty currently being secretively negotiated among the U.S. and ten Pacific Rim nations, including Japan, Australia, and Vietnam.
The treaty contains highly controversial provisions which would encourage corporations to send jobs overseas, flood U.S. markets with imported food products of questionable quality, undermine Internet freedom, and empower corporations to attack environmental and health safeguards.
Pointing to the failures of the 20-year-old North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), critics term the TPP “NAFTA on steroids.” Opponents of the TPP say corporate interests are using a “Trojan horse” strategy of branding negotiations as “trade talks” to impose many non-trade policies that would undermine basic needs and rights of Americans.
Both Republicans and Democrats – in a broad spectrum of public interests from agriculture to religion – are opposing the TPP.

Hiring of police for the 16th Street Mall is reflective of a thoroughly bankrupt city leadership
.jpg)
from the August edition of the Naysayer newsletter from historian and social critic Phil Goodstein
No sooner had the 16th Street Mall opened in 1982
than department stores began to close along it. Though no major retail emporium anchors the road, it has been extremely successful as a people
place. Even so, business interests, who have claimed the road as their own,
have complained about crime along the plaza.
Rather than lobbying the
city to make sure that the 16th Street Mall is adequately patrolled with the
rest of the city, the Downtown Denver Partnership and cohorts have announced
they will pay for more police officers along the road. In other words, the
police are not public employees who serve to protect the population wherever
they are needed, but are essentially private employees of downtown commercial
and real estate interests. As such, it is unclear whether they are enforcing
city ordinances or serving as the musclemen of the one percent.
For years, the police department has suffered the consequences of its rent-a-cop policies. This specifically refers to the way-it has allowed uniformed officers to serve as private security personnel for bars and other money-making venues. It has never been clear if they are guardians of law and order or mercenaries in the pay of the people writing their paychecks. When officers have brutalized victims in such capacities, the city has had the responsibility. The hiring of police for the 16th Street Mall is reflective of a thoroughly bankrupt city leadership. For so embracing it, Mayor Michael Hancock shows himself worthy of being the Naysayer of the Month.

Denver Zoning Code Text Amendment 15 for Residential Growing of Marijuana under Colorado Amendment 64
I think what they are trying to do is prohibit outdoor, backyard growing of your six plants (or would that be 12 plants, 6 medical plus 6 recreational). Original A64's "enclosed, locked space" (your backyard with a six-foot fence) becomes "completely enclosed, lockable space" (their garage.)
"Assistant City Attorney David Broadwell says unequivocally (at 1:00) that outdoor home grows are against the law, but when Councilwoman Kneich asks where it is so stated (4:39), Broadwell admits that Amendment 64 doesn't make it illegal to grow outside. Broadwell eventually calls for NEW legislation to make it illegal to grow outside."
This is the implementation of that amendment.
Amendment to the Denver Revised Municipal Code, Chapter 59, §59-2 Revisions to Address Limited Allowance for Residential Growing of Marijuana DRMC, Sec. 59-2. Former chapter 59.
Anyone care to explain?
(i) Gardens shall be allowed as an accessory use common, customary and incidental to a
primary residential use, and shall comply with all limitations generally applicable to accessory
uses stated in Former Chapter 59, Sections 59-87 and 59-88. In addition, marijuana grown as
part of a garden accessory to a primary residential use shall comply with all applicable
limitations found in the Denver Zoning Code, including but not limited to Section 11.8 (Uses
Accessory to Primary Residential Uses – Limitations).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) regarding the proposed “Chive Fest” at City Park
From: Parks and Rec
parksandrecreation@denvergov.org
parksandrecreation@denvergov.org
Due to the number of questions we've received regarding the proposed “Chive Fest” at City Park on August 16th, we've developed these Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) as a response, as many of the individual emails we've received share common concerns and ask identical or similar questions about the planned festival.
In general, it is important to know that if and when an Admission Based Event (ABE) permit for City Park is issued to Chive Fest, the organizers of the event are responsible for the organization and monitoring of the event, based upon predetermined rules, per the ABE policy and Denver Parks and Recreation (DPR) rules and regulations for event management.
Please note that a permit has not yet been issued for this event. We are in regular communication with the event promoters to work through certain requirements they must meet (outlined in the information below) and information that must be provided before they can be issued a permit. Assuming all of these requirements and requests for information are satisfied, a permit will be issued. This is the same process that would be put in place for any large special event/festival permit application.
What do the organizers plan to do to address neighborhood impacts regarding parking, security, noise, trash, restrooms?
The event organizers are planning to address the event plans and answer questions at a public neighborhood meeting on Wednesday, July 30th at 6:00 PM at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science in the VIP room.
What is an Admission Based Event?
The Admission Based Event Policy (ABE) was adopted in 2010, after approval from the Denver Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and the Manager of Parks and Recreation at that time. An ABE is any kind of event for which a third party has to obtain a DPR permit; and for which an admission will be charged, a paid ticket for entry will be required, or other considerations must be provided in order to enter the permitted space within a Denver park facility.
How many ABEs have been held in the City since the adoption of the policy?
To date, four unique events have been held per the ABE policy. Examples include a VIP area for the Pro Cycling Tour at Civic Center Park, and an event at Ruby Hill Park to support funding for the future Levitt Pavilion.
Why is this type of event different from any other event in parks?
In other events like festivals or runs/walks, the event is open to the public with no admission fee required. This event requires a paid ticket to enter the controlled event site.
What is the Chive Fest event?
The event organizer, All Phases Event Group, LLC, describes the event as a music festival to be held on August 16, 2014, from 12-10 p.m., in the large meadow area of City Park. They have estimated attendance at the permit maximum of 7,500 persons and they have also applied for and received a license to sell alcohol on site during the event. They have applied to permit the park for set-up on August 14 & 15 (7am- 11pm) and breakdown on August 17 (7am- 11pm)
The event does not get exclusive use of the park since they have not permitted the entire park. They will have exclusive use of the area they’ve permitted. They will pay for each set up day, event day, tear down day and damage deposit for any potential damage to the park. At present, the current permit fee for this event in excess of $10,000.
What is the City’s responsibility around the event and what is the Chive Fest organizer’s responsibility?
The City is responsible for reviewing the permit application for adherence to polices and rules, issuing the actual permit, and monitoring the event for compliance with the permit as well as all park rules and regulations. The event organizer is responsible for management of the event in regard to: security, event layout, insurance, parking, noise monitoring, restroom facilities, trash planning and removal, adherence to park rules and regulations regarding alcohol, and any other issues regarding the event.
Has the ABE permit been issued already and how can an event that does not have a permit advertise for ticket sales?
Event organizers have not yet received their event permit from Denver Parks and Recreation. Event organizers advertise and sell tickets at their risk as there is no guarantee an event will receive a permit. In this case, after submitting the application and event plans to the City, there are outstanding issues that need to be addressed. If the organizer’s plans around these issues are further developed and sufficient for the size and scale of the event, DPR will issue a permit for the event.
How do event organizers plan to address people coming to City Park to listen to the concert outside the event boundaries, but not purchasing a ticket?
The City is assuming “but for” this event, there are limited impacts to the park on a summer Saturday and increased attendance at the park will be attributed to the event organizers. The City is requiring the event organizer’s plan to address and pay for increased trash removal, portable restrooms, parking options, and security due to this anticipated demand.
Noise has been a major concern among neighbors, specifically how the noise levels at the park will be monitored and how it will impact animals at Denver Zoo?
The event organizers will be required to adhere to the Denver Revised Municipal Code (DRMC) regarding noise levels. The current plan is to have a designated DPR staff person take decibel readings at various intervals throughout the day, and post these readings on the City of Denver Parks and Recreation Facebook page to inform neighbors of adherence or violation of required levels. If levels are exceeded at various locations, the organizers have agreed in writing, to reduce noise levels to allowable levels. The decibel levels set per DRMC protect the Zoo animals, as well as humans. In addition, the event organizers have been asked to discuss their plans directly with the zoo in an effort to clear up any concerns and answer questions they may have regarding the planned music festival.
How does this event differ from the music event that was planned in 2008?
Event organizers who planned to conduct a music festival in 2008 voluntarily withdrew their permit application so the event did not take place. At the time, the ABE policy was not in place to address these types of events in parks. There are two major differences between Chive Fest and the music festival planned back in 2008. The first is that the 2008 event was a three day (Friday, Saturday & Sunday) music festival whereas Chive Fest is one day. The second is that the 2008 event restricted attendance to 53,000 people while the maximum attendance for Chive Fest is 7,500.
Will smoking be allowed in the permitted area?
Yes, tobacco smoking will be permitted during the event. DPR park rules allow for smoking in public parks. However, public consumption, display, transfer or sale of marijuana is strictly prohibited.
Will there be public access to City Park during this event?
Yes, the remainder of City Park will be open during the event. The meadow area and the roadway (north of the meadow area) will be closed during set-up, event date, and take-down of the event. Minor road closures due to the event will be necessary and detailed by the event organizer at the public meeting.

Denver Parks and Recreation
City Charter § 2.4.5 - Sale and leasing of parks.

election held by the City and County of Denver, no park or portion of any
park belonging to the City as of December 31, 1955, shall be sold or leased
at any time, and no land acquired by the City after December 31, 1955, that
is designated a park by ordinance shall be sold or leased at any time,
provided, however, that property in parks may be leased for park purposes
to concessionaires, to charitable or nonprofit organizations, or to
governmental jurisdictions. All such leases shall require the approval of
Council as provided for in Article III of this Charter. No land acquired by the
City after December 31, 1955, shall be deemed a park unless specifically

IMPROVEMENTS CONTINUE OUTSIDE THE MUSEUM
Hello Museum Neighbors,
IMPROVEMENTS CONTINUE OUTSIDE THE MUSEUM
We wanted to share some exciting news about the landscaping and upgrades around the Museum. These improvements will enhance the experience for museum visitors, park visitors and neighbors alike.
SOUTH SIDE OF MUSEUM
The new landscaping on the south side of the Museum will be completed this month. To give the new landscaping time to establish itself, the orange fencing will remain in place until early fall. As part of the Museum’s ongoing green initiative, the new landscaping features native, low-water plants.
We will place a totem pole from our Anthropology collections in the park, just south of the Morgridge Family Exploration Center and Boettcher Plaza. At 24 feet tall, the totem pole is too tall to display inside the Museum, and importantly, since totem poles are meant to be on display outside so that the natural decay process can return it to Mother Earth, its planned location in City Park is very fitting.
WEST SIDE OF BUILDING
In response to your feedback, we are working with Denver Parks and Recreation to make improvements outside the building This summer, the Museum will begin upgrading the landscaping on the west side of the building. As part of this process, the bear statue, Grizzly’s Last Stand, will be removed from its current location and go into hibernation for several weeks. When the statue re-emerges in early fall, it will be relocated farther south on the west side of the Museum and placed in landscaping that represents its natural habitat. Grizzly’s Last Stand has enjoyed many locations over the years, and we’re confident he’ll feel right at home in his new and ‘landscape-improved’ location.
While Grizzly’s Last Stand is hibernating, we encourage you to share your photos and memories on our Facebook page or use #dmnsgrizzly on Twitter and Instagram.
We’re also excited to announce that early this fall we will install a bronze sculpture on the west side of the building commemorating our Snowmastodon Project™ – the discovery and excavation of a trove of Ice Age fossils.
Sincerely,
Maura O’Neal
Communications and Media Relations Manager

Albus Brooks (Denver City Councilman) and Downtown Denver never intended to help the homeless
from Occupy Denver on FB
Here's proof @DenCityCouncil, Albus Brooks: Denver City Councilman and Downtown Denver never intended to help the #homeless like they claimed when they passed this inhumane ban!
There are STILL not enough beds for all the homeless in #Denver and they have not increased services, BUT they have $1.8 MILLION for 10 more cops, arrest and detention services.
Whereas, if they truly wanted to help the homeless, they could have spent that same $1.8 MILLION and got 360 homes like this to house the#houseless!
This 3D-printed house costs less than US$5,000 dollars and is made out of recycled materials. The Chinese company that’s producing these homes can print 10 houses every 24 hours.

KEEP CALM AND CHIVE OFF - THE HANCOCK RULE
Opinion by Gerald Trumbule
In a telephone conversation (7/17) with a DPR staff member I was told: "We cannot discriminate among applicants for Permits. If they meet all of the qualifications, they will be granted a Permit." As you will see below in the Department Policy and Procedures - Admission Based Events, no criteria are set for the applicant's purpose.
At one of the Task Force meetings mentioned in section 4.0 (pg 3) a citizen reportedly raised the question as to whether DPR would permit a KKK rally. The answer: "we would have to consider it."
So according to DPR, any discussion about the character of the Resig brothers, their websites, their alcohol distribution company, their KCCO brand, or their sexist method of promotion, is moot.
Also note Sec. 3.1 (pg2) "Under section 2.4.4 of the City Charter, the management, operation and control all parks and facilities owned by the City and County of Denver for park and recreational purposes are under the exclusive control DPR and its Manager."
Let's call this the Hancock Rule: Chive Off (meaning, I'm the boss and you are not).
CHIVE FEST PERMIT NOT YET GRANTED AS OF 10:45 AM, SAT 7/19/2014

DENVER SET TO PULL IN THE BIG BUCKS WHEN CHIVE FEST IS PERMITTED
BTW, as of 7:00 am Friday, 7/18, the Chive Fest is still listed as "permit pending". When do you think DPR will actually grant the permit? Perhaps over this weekend?

City Park Friends And Neighbors (CPFAN.org) weighs in on CHIVE FEST
| |||
|
DENVER'S FREE-WHEELING PARKS AND REC DEPARTMENT
In a phone conversation DPR's Chris Wilson said "DPR is under no obligation to notify RNOs (Registered Neighborhood Organizations) or the Denver Zoo about activities it schedules for City Park". Indeed, Sean Andersen from the Zoo's public relations department verified that he was unaware of the upcoming Chive Fest on Aug. 16. and RNOs have received no notification of this event. Although well advertised, no permit for this event has yet been granted, although it is on the DPR schedule as "pending".
INC, a organization of over 50 RNOs, is not pleased with this development:
-"The City seems to continues to promote, expedite and provide help for those wishing to navigate the event scheduling process through Kevin Scott, whose title is Citywide Film and Event Administrator and who serves as the City’s liaison for event promoters. Mr Scott seems to have the ultimate power to make commitments to event promoters and effect permitting. Using his seemingly unquestionable authority, major events continue to be scheduled which could have significant ramifications for the City’s neighborhoods without notification or involvement whatsoever of RNOs or members of the community.
-What role and under what policies is Kevin Scott operating and what powers does he have to make commitments to groups such as the Chive Fest that they can begin the sales of tickets and advertising of liquor sales before a park permit has been issued or liquor license application has even been posted?
-What responsibility does Mr. Scott have to notify and involve RNOs in the planning of major events which will impact life in Denver's neighborhoods? A major discussion item in the stakeholders meetings.
-How can the City of Denver justify permitting the Chive Fest event at City Park in light of the fact that an identical type of event was denied the use of City Park in 2008 due to the impact of loud music on the animals at Denver Zoo?"
See entire letter below.
Congress Park Street Repaving
From Councilwoman Jeanne Robb’s Office and Denver Department of Public Works:
The re-paving of the following streets in the Congress Park neighborhood is about to begin:
Starting later this week the No Parking/ Tow Away signs will be placed and edge milling work will begin as preparation for the actual milling (repaving) of the streets. Once the edge milling is completed on a given street, the No Parking signs will be temporarily removed until the crew returns to do the milling, at which time the No Parking signs will go back in.
6th Avenue to Colfax
Josephine to Steele
Starting later this week the No Parking/ Tow Away signs will be placed and edge milling work will begin as preparation for the actual milling (repaving) of the streets. Once the edge milling is completed on a given street, the No Parking signs will be temporarily removed until the crew returns to do the milling, at which time the No Parking signs will go back in.
Please note that No Parking/Tow Away signs go in 1 or 2 days in advance of the actual work. Also, they don’t do streets and avenues at the same time so as to leave some parking alternatives. The contractor, Cutler, will be distributing flyers to the all residences on each street. Cars can be towed, usually to another place in the neighborhood, at any time that the No Parking/Tow Away signs are in place.

CHIVE FEST - BUT WHAT ABOUT THE ANIMALS?
Just talked to Sean Andersen from the Zoo public relations department, who had not heard about Chive Fest. They will research it and issue a statement soon.
If I'm not mistaken, East Meadow is separated from the Zoo by about 50 feet.
Meanwhile, here's one of the groups (Steel Panther) from YouTube.
and Hancock's worried about our image?
CHIVE FEST - BEER BRANDING EFFORT IN CITY PARK, DENVER, AUG.16
It looks to me like the Resig brothers, clever fellows that they are, have hooked up with a brewery to create a brand (KCCO - Keep Cool and Chive On), created a website with social aspirations and a dating service at theChive.com, and a roster of festivals around the country to get Chivers and Chivettes together to swill the brew. They also have a charity and a non-profit corporation. And their websites are really cool. And, BTW, quite sexist.
I am surprised they aren't trying to start a religion as well.
