RIBS installed by Mallett ExcavatingWoodland Park company at the forefront of mitigationBy Pat Hillphill@ourcoloradonews.com

In the race to halt the energy of water in the Ute Pass area, a new system employs technology as a barrier to the flow. Devel-oped by scientists at Colorado State Univer-sity, the Rapid Installation Barrier System stops sediment in its tracks while diminish-ing the power of water.

Besieged this summer with unpredict-able weather patterns, people threatened by deluge are fighting back with RIBS. Intro-duced by Landmark Earth Solutions, Inc., the systems are installed by Mallett Excavat-ing of Woodland Park.

Last week, the Malletts, Rick, Anne and their sons Travis and Adam, installed the system at the Alpine Autism Center. The center is in the direct path of water flowing from the burn scar on the Flying W Ranch property in Mountain Shadows.

“In a big storm water still comes down

but the system blocks the sediment,” Rick Mallett said.

To view the system in action, Land-mark’s president, Bart Daniel, flew in from

the company manufacturing plant in Ken-nesaw, Ga. For the past several months, Daniel has worked with the Malletts, the Natural Resource Conservation District and the Coalition for the Upper South Platte.

“We do contracting through Bart’s com-pany with CUSP,” Rick Mallett said. “CUSP is interested in protecting structures.”

Unlike sandbags, RIBS are filled with na-tive materials, sand and decomposed gran-ite. “You don’t have to haul in fill material,” Anne Mallett said.

The barriers are impervious to the dam-aging effects of the sun’s ultraviolet rays as well as wind, rain and hail. In heights of 2, 4 and 6 feet, the barriers, of reinforced poly-propylene fabric, are sealed tighter than sandbags as a result of a trapezoidal design that resists water flow.

Several homeowners in Chipita Park purchased the barrier bags before the rain-storm of Aug. 22 when Fountain Creek came roaring through the area. “The work we had done with CUSP saved the homes that had the barriers,” said Rick Mallett. “We felt pretty good about that.”

In addition to homes in Chipita Park, the Malletts installed the RIBS system at the Ute Pass Library and the adjacent Cascade Fire Department. The project was funded by a grant awarded to the fire protection district.

Mallett Excavating of Woodland Park is making waves recently with their installation of the RIBS system in places vulnerable to flooding in the Waldo Canyon burn-scar areas. The RIBS technology was developed at the Hydraulics Lab at Colorado State University and introduced by Landmark Earth Solutions, whose president is Bart Daniel.

City starts traffic studyFountain Creek projects in the worksBy Pat Hillphill@ourcoloradonews.com

As Woodland Park grows and the number of cars increases, the city has initiated a transportation study to look at traffic and travel patterns. “This is all a spinoff from our com-prehensive plan,” said Bill Alspach, the city’s public works director.

The plan, finalized in 2010, put the spotlight on residents’ concerns about traffic and the resulting is-sues.

However, Alspach emphasizes that the transportation study is not designed to propose solutions but to identify key issues in Woodland Park and the surrounding area.

FEMA funded project slated

Because water flows downhill, Fountain Creek in Woodland Park is the culprit when it comes to flooding in Green Mountain Falls, Chipita Park, Cascade and Manitou Springs.

As a result, the city of Woodland Park is doing the mea culpa with public works projects that reflect the good neighbor approach. “We have the east-fork project under construction,” said Bill Alspach, the city’s public works director.

The project to halt the damag-ing runoff from the creek is from McDonalds to Woodland Park High School is being built by Purgatory Valley Construction, Alspach said.

A $2 million project funded by FEMA has been halted by bureau-cracy. “We’ve been waiting and waiting for environmental permits to be issued,” Alspach said. “We’ve selected a contractor and we’re ready to start working on the con-struction on Sheridan Street be-hind Safeway.”

The rainstorm of Aug. 22 was un-expected. “If we had these projects done a year ago, had gotten the en-vironmental permits we wouldn’t have had the problems we had on Thursday,” Alspach said.

The permits come through the state’s Water Quality division to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. “But these permits take time,” he said. “We’re getting there, going to start construction and life’s going to be much better in Fountain Creek.”

The city of Woodland Park has been working on Fountain Creek projects for years, Alspach said. “We have very strict detention-pond re-quirements; we’ve got a lot of things completed, underway or coming in the future to make drainage better in Woodland Park.”

Rains settle down in town basements Flood insurance does not cover most complaints By Pat Hill phill@ourcoloradonews.com

Besieged with fi re and fl ood and road closures on U.S. 24, disaster looms large these days in the Ute Pass area.

With no break in the monsoons that have rained down on the Waldo Canyon burn area this summer, the residents ex-perienced yet another jolt when torrential rains brought destruction to the area unre-lated to the fi re.

With evidence of fl ooded basements in Woodland Park and damage to communi-ties along Ute Pass, insurance is now the main topic of conversation in the area.

As it turns out, most homeowners are stuck with the clean-up bills.

“Homeowner policies do not cover fl oods,” said Robbin Johnson, broker with the Insurance Center in Woodland Park.

“Any kind of surface water is not cov-ered; rain comes down, ground gets satu-rated, water starts running into your home but that is not a covered loss under a home-owners’ policy.”

However, the term “fl ood” is a misnomer when it comes to insurance coverage. “For most of our customers, the fl ood policy would not have applied anyway,” she said.

To qualify as a fl ood, the water must be deep, deeper than just soaking the carpet and ruining everything in its pathway. Be-sides, fl ood insurance is expensive.

“Flood insurance is designed for cata-strophic loss,” Johnson said. “Flood policies have a really high deductible.”

For most Americans, fl ood insurance is purchased through the National Flood Pro-gram, which will insure homes for losses up to $250,000.

On the other hand, homeowners can

buy insurance from private carriers who have their own guidelines.

One of Johnson’s clients carries insur-ance through the national program.

“She had problems with her property; the rain washed away a retaining wall and did damage to her deck,” she said.

But the National Flood policy does not cover a deck, only the structure, Johnson said.

“Most people know that their homeown-er’s policy does not cover fl oods,” she said.

The circumstances of what is covered, however, can be baffl ing. “If a tree got struck by lightning and fell over on the house, that’s a covered loss,” she said. “The tree caused the house to open up and the rains to come in - it wasn’t fl ooding.”

If a pipe bursts in the house, causing wa-ter damage to the sheet rock and the fl oor, the loss is covered by the homeowner’s in-surance policy. “That is not a fl ood, it’s wa-ter damage,” she said.

But if a tree or a boulder falls into the house, as a result of fi re, that’s a problem, Johnson said.

“You just don’t know if the National Flood Program will cover that,” she said. “The problem the people are having down the pass is because of a fi re.”

With the exception of the rainstorm of Aug. 22, the previous water damage was initially caused by the lack of vegetation on the hillside, because of the Waldo Canyon fi re of June 2012.

“The ground up there cannot saturate the rain,” Johnson said.

While Ute Pass homeowners can buy in-surance from the National Flood Program, there is a waiting period. “But you have to specifi cally buy fl ood insurance separate from your homeowners’ policy,” she said.

One solution is the old-fashioned sump pump, which may or may not have worked during the rainstorm last month. As far as cleaning up the mess, Johnson offers some advice.

“It comes down to good old elbow grease,” she said.

‘Fast & Furious 7’ coming to Pikes Peak today Universal Studios � lm crews to � lm on mountain By Danny Summers Dsummers@ourcoloradonews.com

Pikes Peak will become Holly-wood’s mountain this month.

That’s because Universal Pic-tures will be on Pikes Peak shoot-ing for “Fast & Furious 7” on loca-tion.

The studio has requested the accommodation of a revised schedule because of several com-plex shoots that involve a longer setup time than initially thought.

The fi lm series has earned more than $2.3 billion and has become Universal Studios’ biggest franchise of all time. “Fast & Furi-ous 7” is scheduled for release in theaters on July 6, 2014.

Among the actors who could be on the mountain shooting scenes are Paul Walker, Vin Die-sel, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris and Dwayne Johnson.

Walker was the grand marshal of this year’s Pikes Peak Inter-national Hill Climb, which took

place in June.In order to provide the best

chance of success for this fi lm, a change in the closure schedule has been granted by the city of Colorado Springs, which operates

Pikes Peak Highway. This change will affect all visitors who wish to drive the Pikes Peak Highway or access the North Slope Recreation Area during some day from not through Sept. 10.

The Highway will be closed to-day and Thursday from Glen Cove to the summit. Visitors will not be allowed to go above Glen Cove nor access the summit via the Pikes Peak Highway.

The North Slope area will be open as usual.

On Sept. 6 and 10, the highway, including the North Slope Rec-reation Area, will be closed to all visitors.

These areas will be open to visitors and the summit on the other dates, weather permitting, but there will be fi lming activities during operating hours so visitors should anticipate intermittent traffi c delays on the highway.

Hikers can access the summit via Barr Trail and Crags Trail with-out interruption.

However, hikers should be pre-pared to hike off of the mountain as the highway will be closed and there will be no transportation from the summit via the Pikes Peak Highway.

The Pikes Peak Cog Railway will operate during its normal sched-uled hours during these closures. Visit their website at www.cograil-way.comfor more information.

Because of the inconvenience, the city will offer a 50-percent dis-count today and Thursday to all visitors on the Pikes Peak High-way.

No other discounts will apply and the discount is not applica-ble to the North Slope Recreation Area.

Pikes Peak will be the site of � lming for the movie “Fast and Furious 7.” The Mountain will be partly closed for a few days, beginning today. Courtesy photo

Rains settle down in town basements buy insurance from private carriers who have their own guidelines.

One of Johnson’s clients carries insur-ance through the national program.

“She had problems with her property; the rain washed away a retaining wall and did damage to her deck,” she said.

But the National Flood policy does not cover a deck, only the structure, Johnson said.

“Most people know that their homeown-er’s policy does not cover fl oods,” she said.

The circumstances of what is covered, however, can be baffl ing. “If a tree got struck by lightning and fell over on the house, that’s a covered loss,” she said. “The tree caused the house to open up and the rains to come in - it wasn’t fl ooding.”

If a pipe bursts in the house, causing wa-ter damage to the sheet rock and the fl oor, the loss is covered by the homeowner’s in-surance policy. “That is not a fl ood, it’s wa-ter damage,” she said.

But if a tree or a boulder falls into the house, as a result of fi re, that’s a problem, Johnson said.

“You just don’t know if the National Flood Program will cover that,” she said. “The problem the people are having down the pass is because of a fi re.”

With the exception of the rainstorm of Aug. 22, the previous water damage was initially caused by the lack of vegetation on the hillside, because of the Waldo Canyon fi re of June 2012.

“The ground up there cannot saturate the rain,” Johnson said.

While Ute Pass homeowners can buy in-surance from the National Flood Program, there is a waiting period. “But you have to specifi cally buy fl ood insurance separate from your homeowners’ policy,” she said.

One solution is the old-fashioned sump pump, which may or may not have worked during the rainstorm last month. As far as cleaning up the mess, Johnson offers some advice.

“It comes down to good old elbow grease,” she said.

Wildfire restoration – a glimpse into the futureExperts: It can take a century for area to recover from blazeSpecial to Courier

Colorado is no stranger to devastating wildfires and the continuing stress they leave behind for affected communities. In the past few months, residents have witnessed the heartbreak firsthand, from flooding in Manitou Springs as a result of the Waldo Canyon fire, to the expansive reach of the Black Forest fire.

Wildfire experts say that it can take all of a century for an area affected by wildfires to fully recover. Burn area restoration is not easily or quickly accomplished, however it is vital to the rehabilitation of communities, surrounding wildlife and area waterways.

Manpower and time are the crucial ele-ments of land restoration and revitaliza-tion.

Lisa Patton, volunteer coordinator for the Coalition of the Upper South Platte, who works to protect water shed along the river, says that volunteers are “like gold.” The manpower behind reseeding and re-

moving dead vegetation is invaluable in helping the area recover and return to the healthy land it once was.

Patton, who heads up efforts to restore the Hayman Fire burn scar, sees the project as a glimpse into the future for those deal-ing with the devastation and loss because of a wildfire. “As we pass the 11-year anniver-sary of the fire, we have come to count on the public to revitalize the area,” she said. “Many volunteers encounter the realization that this is not an easy task and how valu-able volunteers really are to the restoration efforts.”

Restoration of the Hayman Fire burn scar is one of nine volunteer projects of-fered by Xcel Energy’s Day of Service to take place on Sept. 7 from 9 a.m. until noon. Volunteers will be on the front lines of the cleanup by aiding in re-vegetation of hill slopes, reseeding with native vegetation, and harvesting and transplanting willows or pines.

Individuals who want to be part of the Day of Service can visit https://responsi-blebynature.com/form/xcel-energys-day-service and sign up for the Westcreek proj-ect.

Florissant Fossil Beds to present ranger-guided evening elk hikesBy Special to the Courier and Tribune

Everyone is welcome to take part in a Rocky Mountain tradition: Listening for the bugling of the bull Elk (Wapiti) on an autumn evening. Join a ranger at Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument to learn about, listen for and look for wild Wapiti.

Programs run Friday, Saturday and Sun-day. The dates and times are listed below:

Sept. 13 to 15, from 5:30 to 8 p.m.Sept. 20 to 22 and Sept. 27 to 29 from 5

to 7:30 p.m.Oct. 4 to 6 from 4:45 to 7:15 p.m.These programs will include a brief pre-

sentation about these animals, followed by an off-trail hike of up to two miles, during which participants will look and listen for the elk in the wild.

Normal entrance fees to Florissant Fos-sil Beds National Monument will apply, $3 per adult, 16 and older. Annual passes to the Fossil Beds are available for $15 - good for the cardholder and three other adults.

Large numbers of people tend to make the elk wary and elusive, so the number of participants will be limited.

Advance registration is required. In the past these programs have filled up quickly, so call early for reservations.

Tables and grills are available near the visitor center for picnics before the pro-gram.

To reach Florissant Fossil Beds, travel west from Colorado Springs on U.S.Highway 24 to Florissant, then two miles south on Teller County No. 1.

For more information or reservations, call 719-748-3253 and ask for Jeff, Ext. 161.

The city of Woodland Park has initiated a transportation study of traffic patterns. The study is funded chiefly by the Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments. Photo by Pat Hill

“What do we need to do in town to make travel better?” he said.

The study could open discussions on improvements to the existing road systems and on local streets. “I don’t know. We have a lot of different paths and options,” Al-spach said. “It will help us scope the work for a more encompassing and comprehen-sive study that we’re going to do.”

Next year, after the study is complete,

city officials expect to seek an intergov-ernmental agreement with the Colorado Department of Transportation and a subse-quent hiring of consultants for projects that are approved by the city.

The $80,000 study is funded chiefly by the Pikes Peak Area Council of Govern-ments, with a $14,000 match by the city.

The planning department, under the direction of Sally Riley, has also initiated a smaller traffic study, with the results to be incorporated into the PPACG study. “We have no preconceived ideas; we want to see what the needs of the community are, what the feelings are and what the technical data says,” Alspach said.

End of the trail for a legend and way of lifeColorado had been a destination for

trailblazing cowman Charlie Goodnight and his partner Oliver Loving when they first drove cattle across “the Graveyard of Cattleman’s Hopes,” “the Bitter River,” the Pecos.

For almost two decades, blazing trails through the cattle country from the Brazos in Texas, on into New Mexico, to the Ar-kansas and the Platte in Colorado, he was searching for his own “Shangri-La,” where he might one day settle.

“In the summer of 1868, he found ‘The Spot.’ It was a green little valley along the Arkansas about five miles upstream from Pueblo, surrounded by bluffs of shale,” wrote Ralph C. Taylor in his Colorful Colo-rado column in early April of 1950. (The column was sponsored by Coors Brewing for years and aired on radio stations and published in Colorado newspapers, includ-

ing the Pueblo Chieftain.)“This, he decided should become

the headquarters of his vast cattle busi-ness. Around it lay thousands of acres of uncropped Gama grass that fattened steers almost as fast as corn.”

Finally closing the partnership main-tained long after the death of Oliver Loving in the winter of 1868-69, he established his headquarters at a spot (one among many)

known as “Goodnight.”“Most of the land of his new domain

he acquired in partnership with Jacob and Peter Dotson and Mrs. Annie Blake. Mrs. Blake had only recently acquired from the heirs of Gervacio Nolan the 48,000 acres which the U.S. government had recognized from the 300,000 originally granted the Frenchman Nolan by the Spanish govern-ment when it controlled all the land South of the Arkansas River,” noted Taylor.

“Mrs. Blake bought the land for $10,000 and then sold one third to Goodnight for $5,000 and another third to the Dotsons for a like amount, retaining her third. The deal gave Goodnight access to most of land from the St. Charles River on the east to Hardscrabble on the west, with the Arkan-sas River as the northern boundary. The tract formed a triangle, the southeastern boundary going along the St. Charles and

the Greenhorn Rivers to meet the western boundary along the Greenhorn Range.”

It included what was later to become the town site of South Pueblo. With big plans set in motion, he left for Kentucky to be married to Mary Ann (Molly) Dyer. Goodnight met Dyer in Texas during the Civil War in Cross Timbers and they had maintained a relationship since. She was 31 and Goodnight was 34 when they were married in Hickman, Ky., on July 26, 1870.

They went by boat to St. Louis, traveled to Abilene, Texas, by train, and then set out by stage to Pueblo.

En route to Pueblo, Goodnight had discovered the trail of two cattle thieves associated with the notorious Coe gang and alerted Colorado Vigilance commit-tee upon his arrival in Pueblo. His alarm

Backpack loaded for Everest expedition not healthy

Sometimes I’m a day late and a dollar short, but I still have to comment on my observations from the first full week of school.

As I drove along both Baldwin and Kelley roads last week, I couldn’t help but notice children struggling with backpacks that appeared to be loaded for a Mount Everest expedition.

I’m thinking … “that can’t be good for you.” It turns out I’m right.

According to backpacksafety.com, there’s been an alarming increase in the number of reports of childhood back pain with close to 60 percent of young-sters reporting at least one episode of low-back pain by the end of their teen years.

The Consumer Product Safety Com-mission estimates that there are more than 7,000 emergency room visits each year because of injuries sustained from heavy back packs … an increase of 300 percent since 1996.

When you do the math, it’s easy to see why. The average backpack weighs 12 pounds and is lifted on average 10 times a day that equals 120 pounds of weight lifting per day.

This 120 pounds a day times the 180-day school year yields a yearly weight load of 21,600 pounds. That’s nearly 11 tons or the equivalent of six full-size automobiles a year.

KidsHealth.org said that when a heavy weight, such as a backpack filled with books, is incorrectly placed on the shoulders, the weight’s force can pull the child backward resulting in shoul-der, neck and back pain as well as poor posture.

The 33 vertebrae that make up the spinal column have discs that act as natural shock absorbers but they weren’t meant to carry 11 tons a year.

The American Academy of Pediat-rics recommends that parents choose a lightweight pack that has two wide, padded shoulder straps, a padded back, a waist belt and multiple compartments so the weight can be evenly distributed.

Backpacks with tight, narrow straps that dig into the shoulders can interfere with circulation and result in tingling, numbness and weakness in the arms and hands.

Discourage your child from wearing their backpack over one shoulder. No matter how cool it looks, it’s really bad for both their back and posture.

In the interest of preventing injuries, a child should not carry more than 10 to 15 percent of their body weight in their packs.

For example, an 80-pound child shouldn’t be carrying a backpack that weights more than 8 to 12 pounds.

Other suggestions from the AAP in-clude encouraging your kids to use their locker or desk throughout the day, in-stead of carrying the entire day’s books in their backpack; use all the backpack’s compartments placing the heavier items, like textbooks, close to the center of the back; and only bring home the books they actually need for homework or studying that night.

If you’re unsure of whether your child’s backpack is too heavy for them, just watch them as they walk out the door in the morning. If they are lean-ing forward or to one side, remember this old adage … “As the twig bends, so grows the tree.”

A visiting palace on train wheelsThis unique visitor passed down from

Denver, stopping at Colorado Springs for a couple days. It must have turned heads as it passed along the Front Range on the Rio Grande!

The handsomest railroad train that ever crossed the continent and maybe the finest in the world arrived in Colorado Springs yesterday, April 10, 1901, over the Denver and Rio Grande from Denver. They were on their way to California, but spent enough time in the area to visit several significant local sights.

The party Dr. and Mrs. Seward Webb and family made up a dozen passengers. Webb represented the Vanderbilt interests.

He was the son-in-law of Cornelius Vanderbilt, who has interest in a number of local projects as well as a number of large investments in the east.

The train has been in Denver briefly, but a day later it was parked at the Rio Grande’s station in Colorado Springs. On the train first was a special horse car, used for bag-gage of the party, then a Cafe car “Genesta”, were all the staff could eat, then the private car “Swannanoa” and last but not least Dr Webb’s own car “Elsmere,” which is a fine as it is possible to make a car.

Both private cars had their own dining rooms and chef. All of the cars were let-tered “New York Central and Hudson River” printed across the top and were vestibule. The vestibule allowed the passage between cars without stepping out into the weather, a recent development in railroad cars.

The interior of the cars was magnificent. The furnishings were of the finest and each was like a fine home.

The train was guarded against too curi-ous inspection of the public and impos-sible for the public to gain entrance to the cars. On board the train - in addition to the

party - were 10 servants including chefs, porters, policemen, waiters and valets. There were also a number of pets that belonged to the passengers, including dogs and parrots.

Webb remained in constant contact with New York through his private sec-retary. Even though anxious to get on to California, they met with many of the im-portant residents of the area. A lunch was arranged for some of these in the privacy of the train. A large number of the local citizens came down to the station to view the train.

In the afternoon after the lunch, the train was pulled by two locomotives of the Denver and Rio Grande to Manitou.

The size of the train required more than normal power to make the trip. Upon the return to Colorado Springs, the train continued south to Pueblo and west to Salt Lake City. The rest of the trip was made with as much speed as possible to get the train to Coronado Beach, Calif.

The return to New York was more than a month later, quickly made to New York. In the 1890’s, Cornelius Vanderbilt him-self had visited the area and had been up the mountain in the cab of one of the little steam locomotives. These stories of famous visitors who went up the mountain was rarely recorded, but mention in the Manitou paper was often just a paragraph.

Carrigan continues on Page 7

allowed them to quickly capture the rustlers and they were placed in the Pueblo Jail. However, the unfortunate souls were taken from the jail in the night and hanged from a telegraph pole outside the Drover hotel in which the newlyweds were staying. Goodnight first tried to keep the lynching from his new wife Molly, but was unable to do so.

“The bride accused Goodnight of as-sociating with Yankees and ruffians and demanded to be taken back to Texas,” wrote Taylor.

In Goodnight’s own account in letters, he recalled his and his wife’s exchange.

“I understand they hanged them to a telegraph pole,” she exclaimed in her distress.

“Having been married such a short time, while and not accustomed to making excuses, I hardly knew how to reply, but finally stammered out in very abashed manner: “Well, I don’t think it hurt the telegraph pole.”

Goodnight agreed to return his new wife to civilized Texas, allowing she would rest a few days. But the growing and developing town in the meantime offered the promise of becoming civilized itself — and she soon forgot about going back.

Pueblo, with about 600 residents in 1870, found Charles and Molly Goodnight as good neighbors. Goodnight, intent on improving his herd, imported shorthorn bulls to the range of the plains. He also started extensive farming operations, growing corn to fatten cattle and planted several thousand apple trees. Addition-ally, he built irrigation ditches, and tried to improve the streambed to protect his trees and increase his land holdings.

He took an active interest in the busi-ness community as well, giving $1,000 to found an educational institution and requiring it to be independent of all sects and religious creeds. His wife was instru-mental in the founding of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Pueblo — the first of its denomination in southern Colorado.

“Money was a costly matter to borrow. Goodnight was paying one and a half to two percent per month. He joined others in 1873 in organizing the Stock Growers’ Bank, which advertised six percent on three month deposits, and eight percent on 12 months,” noted Taylor.

“Goodnight owned and operated the opera house and many business properties in Pueblo, but when the panic hit, it just about wiped him out. (He) turned again to the cattle ranges to regain his panic losses and formed a partnership with John W. Prowers, the lower Arkansas valley stock-man who was the father of Lamar and

Prowers County.Prowers & Goodnight started a meat

packing business at Las Animas, which in the early seventies was the end of the Santa Fe Railroad. Goodnight’s aim was to improve the quality of the range cattle by using better bulls; by slaughtering inferior stock and sending it to eastern markets.”

But he became discouraged by the slow financial recuperation process and the increasingly crowded southern Colorado range. He decided once again to relocate. This time back to Texas and the Palo Duro area he knew as a Texas Ranger and scout.

“In the fall of 1875, he took what was was left of his Colorado outfit and herded it past Two Buttes to the Cimarron, past the ruins of Robber’s Roost and down the Canadian River… Goodnights established their home ranch, 100 miles from their nearest neighbor, 250 miles from Las Animas were supplies were packed,” wrote Taylor.

Using his land near Pueblo as secu-rity, he borrowed $30,000 from George W. Clayton.

He paid 18 percent interest per year and eventually befriended Clayton’s agent, John Adair, who had a large estate in Ireland but wanted to get into the cattle business. Adair and the Goodnights formed partner-ship, which became widely known as the JA Brand. With Adair’s money and Good-night’s know-how, the operation flourished and had nearly a quarter million acres under fence by Adair’s death in 1885.

The JA has survived, and today is still run by descendants of the Adair family. Today, it has 1,335,000 acres of land and 100,000 cattle on range, and includes op-erations in six Texas counties, and a ranch near Larkspur, Colorado.

Two years later, Goodnight dissolved the arrangement and moved to a smaller spread of 140,000 acres with 20,000 head of cattle in nearby Goodnight, Texas, his namesake.

In later years he dabbled with breeding experiments designed to produce better beef cattle ... as well as the ill-fated “Cat-talo.”

“The latter resulted when his buffalo bull ‘Old Sikes’ became enamored with longhorn cows,” wrote Mike Flanigan of the Denver Post in a 1986 article.

In addition to all these accomplish-ments, he is credited with the inverntion of the Chuck Wagon, when he converted an old military Studebaker wagon during his early trail days, by building shelves and compartments on the wagon to make cooking on the trail easier.

He invested (with little or no success) in mining operations in Mexico, and once even tried his hand at producing a movie to show how he remembered the West. Shown only at a cattleman’s convention and at a dinner in New York, the flick never caught on with the viewing public because of its decided lack of gunfights, and the In-

dians portrayed were as likely to be friends as they were to be hostile.

His first wife, Mary Ann or “Molly,” as she was known, died in 1926.

After her death, a sick and despondent Charlie Goodnight was nursed backed to health by a 26-year-old nurse and tele-graph operator from Butte, Montana, that he first came in contact with because of their shared surname.

In March of 1927, right after Charlie turned 91, the two un-related Goodnights, Charlie and the very young Corrine, mar-ried. Charlie died of a heart attack two

years later in Tucson, Arizona, after selling and delivering Buffalo roasts to butcher shops in Phoenix, on Dec. 12, 1929.

Years later, Ralph C. Taylor captured the sentiment of the moment.

“The great, driving spirit of the old cowman had gone on, but the civilization he had blazed in Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado has remained. The cowboys, with tears streaming down their leathery cheeks, laid his body under the verdant grass on the edge of Palo Duro Canyon. It was the end of a long and famous trail — the Goodnight trail.”

Tweeds add zip to Woodland Park hotelBy Pat Hillphill@ourcoloradonews.com

Elegantly rustic and serenely peaceful, the Broadmoor’s Em-erald Valley Ranch transports the visitor to the mythical idea

of the West, the sense of freedom, tranquil-ity and natural vigor.

In the idyllic setting far away from civili-zation the ranch is tucked away on 100,000 acres of Pike National Forest, eight miles above the hotel in Colorado Springs. At 8,200 feet, the ranch divulges a transcen-dent experience that begins with a shuttle ride up steep mountain terrain from the hotel to the ranch.

If the lure of nature is compelling, the in-terior design of the nine cabins, the Lodge and Hill House surrounds the guest in am-bience because of the artistry of Tanner Coy and Milt Sommers at Tweeds Fine Furnish-ings in Woodland Park.

“Every unit had to be different. That was probably the biggest challenge,” Coy said.

Dedicated to preserving the heritage of Spencer Penrose, who owned the property in the early 1900s, while enhancing the wil-derness experience, the two started with an image.

“Visualize a mountain cabin, log, wood floors, stone fireplace,” Sommers said. “This is what you envision, patterns, bright colors and heavy textures.”

The two rummaged through Broadmoor properties in a quest for antiques and even-tually discovered 13 old chairs.

“We found them in the stables in No-vember. We’re guessing they’re original to the properties in the 1920s,” Coy said.

Stickers on the back legs offer clues to

the manufacturer, Rustic Hickory Furni-ture, which closed in the 1930s, Coy said.

The chairs were restored by the Old Hickory company to reflect wilderness pa-nache, with leather and patterned fabric. “We selected the fabric for the color and the texture; the fabric picks up the texture of the logs,” Sommers said.

A designer’s gold mine, today the chairs are in the lodge, Hill House and one of the cabins.

Still sleuthing, the two happened upon a second designer gem. “We found 10 pen-dant light fixtures on the property that were original in the 1920s,” Coy said. “We sent them back to a company in Washington to be restored.”

The light fixtures are in the lodge. “That manufacturer designed and built these chandeliers to match; we tried to stay true to the history and design of the property,” Coy said.

Philip Anschutz, whose company owns the Broadmoor and Emerald Valley, con-tributed a piece of historical significance to the Lodge, the bar. Once owned by Spencer Penrose, who scratched his initials into the wood, the bar is distinguished by the origi-nal stained-glass inlays at the top.

At the apex of luxury, the largest proper-ty, Hill House, comes with a private chef, as well as interesting design features, among them, a coffee table made by craftsmen in Arizona. “The table has a hand-forged iron base with reclaimed barn wood and a crin-kle-copper top,” Coy said.

Along with the historical and Western motif throughout, Emerald Ranch enhanc-es the mood with a gallery. “As the owner of the largest collection of American Western art, Philip Anschutz provided all the art - duplicates of the originals,” Coy said. “We

gave him a list of locations and sizes and he provided all the pieces of art.”

Throughout the 3,000-acre property, the ranch design reflects the ingenuity of American craftsmen. “All of this, the vani-ties, light fixtures, mirrors, the drapes, the bedding, all made in America,” Coy said.

At the height of elegance and luxury, nonetheless the ranch is one solution to

the effects of the Great Recession. “This is private sector investment, and if you ask me that’s the ideal economic stimulus at a time like this,” Coy said. “Philip Anschutz spends millions of dollars hiring local subs and contractors and buying local materi-als. And people like us buy American-made products. Part of the brilliance of it is that is so authentic and true to Colorado.”

The shower in the bathroom at Hill House at Emerald Valley Ranch is of stone and porcelain tile, with a band of tumbled rock. The designers, Tanner Coy and Milt Sommers of Tweeds Fine Furnishings, used American-made products for every piece of design in the project.

This bedroom is in one of the nine cabins at the Broadmoor’s Emerald Valley Ranch is cozy and warm, the ideal spot for a vacation getaway amid 100,000 acres the Broadmoor leases from the U.S.Forest Service.

The interior design at the Broadmoor’s Emerald Valley Ranch was all done by Tanner Coy and Milt Sommers at Tweeds Fine Furnishings in Woodland Park. For the lodge furnishings, the two combined leather and bright colors to reflect luxury of the Old West. Courtesy photos from Tanner Coy

The lights in the Lodge at Emerald Valley Ranch reflect the historical significance of the design throughout the proper-ties, which include the Lodge, nine cabins and Hill House. The entire design was done by Tweeds Fine Furnishing in Woodland Park.

Vintage Base Ball Game is an annual traditon Rock Ledge Ranch Base Ball Game is a page out of history

For the ninth consecutive year, I

had the honor of playing in the Labor Day Vintage Base Ball Game at Rock Ledge Ranch.

But before I get to that, here is a lit-tle background on the Ranch and how I became involved.

The Ranch, as many of you know, is a living history museum. Its ori-gin dates to the late 1860s. It is open most summer days, and for numer-ous special events the rest of the year. The Labor Day Base Ball Game is one such event that goes back almost two decades.

I fi rst played in the Rock Ledge Base Ball Game in 2005. My son, Garrison, was 11 years old at the time. He had the honor of being a junior docent at the Ranch. He worked primarily in the Rock Ledge House, which sits on the western part of the property with it back against Garden of the Gods Park.

I began volunteering at the Ranch on special occasions. I cooked the turkey in the smoke house one July 4. Other years, I’ve helped run the hay rides, set up hay bale mazes for the Harvest Festival, and even worked se-curity for the popular Fiddles, Vittles and Vino event.

But my favorite day of the year at the Ranch is Labor Day. The weather is usually warm (low 80s this year), but you can almost feel fall swirling in the air. The setting is second to none with a Garden of the Gods as a backdrop and the natural beauty that is Rock Ledge Ranch.

The Ranch’s team is called the Camp Creek Cloud Busters. We usu-ally play a team from the Colorado Vintage Base Ball Association, based in Denver. This year’s representative was the Denver and Rio Grande Reds.

I assume train afi cionado Mel McFar-land (a frequent contributor to this newspaper) would have cheered for the visitors had he attended the game.

The game is played under 1871 rules. While many of the rules are sim-ilar to today (90 feet between bases, nine defensive players, three outs per half inning) some of the rules from that period are just plain whacky.

For example, a batter, or “striker” is out if a fi elder catches the ball in the air or one bounce. The striker is also out if he or she overruns fi rst base and is tagged out by the defensive player. A striker is also out if a ball hit in fair ter-ritory bounces back on one hop and is caught by the catcher.

The defense is able to instill the help of the fans, or “cranks.” If a ball is caught on the fl y by a crank, and the crank then hands the ball to the defen-sive player, the striker is out. In addi-tion, if the ball never actually hits the ground and is retrieved by the defen-sive player, the striker is out. A great example of this at Rockledge is when a ball gets stuck in a tree, or if a fan catches it and hands it to a defensive player.

So you me be asking, “What ad-vantages do strikers have?” Strikers are allowed to request a pitched ball (thrown underhanded by a “hurler”) to be delivered in a certain area of home plate (which is literally a metal plate). Hurlers are “warned” by the umpire, or arbiter, if too many balls are thrown out of the strike zone.

Probably the main advantage a bat-ter has is that fi elders are not allowed

to wear gloves of any kindThe Rock Ledge Base Ball Game is

as throwback as it gets. Cleats are not allowed. Neither are sunglasses, arm pads, leg pads, shin guards or catcher’s masks. Most of us wear blue jeans.

The pitcher’s mound is fl at and there are no fences to hold the ball in the park. At Rock Ledge, of course, we play on a poorly mowed rocky mead-ow.

The ambience would not be com-plete without a local brass band play-ing period music. The players drink water (no Gatorade here) from tin cups.

The Rock Ledge game also features a cow that grazes in right fi eld during the latter stages of the game, suffrag-ettes who picket for women’s rights, and even an occasional appearance by former President Abraham Lincoln. I’ve never seen Honest Abe make an out yet.

As many as 500 fans come out to watch the game in any given year. The nine-inning affair is usually over in a brisk couple of hours.

Over the years, I have been fortu-nate enough to write about other Vin-tage Base Ball Games in the area. For several years (not this summer) the Tri-Lakes Swans played a game dur-ing the Rocky Mountain Chautauqua Festival in Palmer Lake. At least one time a batted ball found its way onto a passing train and never was seen from again.

I have also covered the Vintage Base Ball Game that takes place in Vic-tor during Gold Rush Days. Those are some happy miners out there in the Gold Bowl.

I don’t know if you’ve yet planned Labor Day 2014, but you may want to stop by Rock Ledge Ranch and take in the Base Ball Game. My hope is that you have as much fun watching as my son and I do playing.

Don’t forget your lawn chair and umbrella.

Vintage Base Ball Games are becoming more popular in recent years. Rock Ledge Ranch hosts a game annually on Labor Day. Courtesy photo

We are community.

Ideas abound for Memorial Park Morrison: ‘� e park belongs to the community’ By Pat Hill phill@ourcoloradonews.com

Presented with three concepts for the redesign of Memorial Park, residents and parks’ advisory board members agreed and disagreed. In follow-up to the public visioning exercises in July, Land Patterns, Inc. asked for input Aug. 28 at the Ute Pass Cultural Center.

With 160 responses from a public sur-vey, the results were varied but each re-tained the pond, chimney, playground and gazebo.

“The park belongs to the community, so each one of these designs responds to the larger notion of a civic park,” said Dave Morrison, designer with Land Pat-terns.

“This is where we come together to do community functions.”

Of importance to the responders were landscaping, a playground, walking trails, a splash-pool area, benches, basketball and volleyball courts and a covered picnic area for families, as well as the commu-nity.

“We definitely focused on pedestrian circulation, access to water and establish-ing a balance between active versus pas-sive recreation opportunities,” said Bryan Kniep, who with Morrison and David Mi-jares, designed the park’s master plan.

Matt Levassiur brings a wealth of experience to Woodland park runnersCross country coach has qualified for two U.S. Olympic TrialsBy Danny SummersDsummers@ourcoloradonews.com

Matt Levassiur runs 15 to 20 miles a day. Every day. Rain, snow or shine.

That either makes the Woodland Park High School English teacher a nut, or very dedicated to staying in shape.

“Running is a lifestyle,” Levassiur said. “I run before school, during school and after school. I run during my planning period.”

Levassiur’s passion for running is Woodland Park High School’s gain; spe-cifically the cross country team, which is working under his direction this fall season. He is an English teacher at the school, so he is able to communicate with the kids regarding workouts and running programs on a frequent basis.

“There are a lot of talented runners who don’t make good coaches, but he re-ally knows what he’s doing,” said Ron Pay-

ton, Woodland Park’s head cross country coach. “He’s very easy going. He’s not an old-school yell and scream at you coach. He’s very positive.

“All the kids are excited. He’s hard not to like.”

Levassiur, 32, is one of the elite long distance runners in the United States. But he didn’t start out that way 14 years ago when he was a walk-on at Adams State in Alamosa.

“I knew very early on in my running career that I wanted to be a college ath-lete,” said Levassiur, who worked with the Woodland Park program last year on a more ancillary capacity. “I didn’t know I could be a college athlete. But I wanted to try.

“Running changed my life. I got bet-ter every single year. I turned out to be a pretty good runner.”

Levassiur’s impressive resume is equaled by few in Colorado. He was a 13-time all-American (three times in cross country and 10 times in track) at Adams State. He later qualified for the two Unit-ed States Trials in the marathon; finish-ing 62nd in 2008 in New York City and 65th in 2012 in Houston. Only the top three American runners advanced to the Sum-

mer Olympics in each of those years.Levassiur still enjoys competing at a

high level, but he has not committed to making a run at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.

“I think there’s a good shot I could qualify for the trials,” said Levassiur, who is married (Stephanie) and has a three-year-old daughter (Allie). “That would be pretty special. Not many guys have quali-fied for three Olympic Trials in the mara-thon.

“But having a child has changed my life a lot, and taking a more active part in school is something I enjoy doing. I used to fly to 10 or 12 races a year. Now it’s down to about five. I just don’t do it as much because I have extra responsibili-ties.”

Stephanie, by the way, was a 10-time all-American in cross country and track.

Levassiur’s top marks would make any high-level runner envious. His best marathon time is two hours, 18 minutes, 58 seconds. His top half-marathon time is a blistering 1:04:46. He once ran a 10k in 28 minutes, 53.52 seconds, and a 5K in 13:52.41.

Levassiur (6-foot-3, 150 pounds) would love to make a living just by running, but

that’s not likely to happen.“There are about 10 or 12 people in

the country who can do that,” he said. “In the hierarchy world of running, those 10 people get 99 percent of the pie.”

Levassiur is sponsored by Power-Bar and survives throughout the school year consuming the tasty energy snack. He also is sponsored by Adidas locally through the Boulder Running Company in Colorado Springs.

“The top runners, like Ryan Hall, are sponsored by Nissan and AT&T,” Levas-siur said. “His sponsorship is not even in the same league as mine.

“Most runners are supporting them-selves on Starbucks jobs or teaching jobs or other jobs like that.”

Levassiur has high expectations for both Woodland Park teams. He believes the girls can soar much higher than last year’s 15th-place state finish.

“If we bond in the way that I hope we can bond we can finish in the top five at state,” he said. “I think the girls would be happy with a top 10 finish, but I think top five is an attainable goal.”

Levassiur has not committed to coach-ing full time, but as time goes by he seems to be leaning that way.

Matt Levassiur, front, was a 13-time all-American runner at Adams State. He’s also qualified for two U.S. Olympic Trials as a marathon runner. He is an assistant coach with the Woodland Park cross country team this fall. Courtesy photo

”Moose Duck Face” origin remains a mystery Funny face has become a trademark of Woodland Park so� ball team By Danny Summers Dsummers@ourcolroadonews.com

Nobody on the Woodland Park High School softball knows exactly how “The Moose Duck Face” came to be. Nobody re-ally seems care, either.

“I’ve always done `The Moose Duck Face,’ but it wasn’t me who started it,” said Panthers senior catcher Kelee Suggs. “I think everybody knew what a moose was, so we just started doing it. I think it’s going to be our trademark.”

Senior pitcher Mallorie Trichell said that even the coaching staff is getting into the act.

“Now (head) coach Dale (Huntington) does it,” Trichell said.

The team also has a pregame chant in which players call out numbers while slap-ping their legs.

It was taught to the team by outfi elder Jeanette Worscheck.

“It’s so cool and it’s so loud; it’s awe-some,” Suggs said.

WASSON VOID REPLACED WITH THE ACADEMYAlmost as soon as it was learned that

Wasson was closing its doors last spring, Woodland Park athletic director Michael DeWall began searching for a replacement football opponent for Week 6 (Oct. 4) of this season.

DeWall found one in The Academy. Not the Air Force Academy, but a Class 3A high school located in Westminster.

The Academy lost its fi rst game of this season (Aug. 23) to Easton, 63-6.

Woodland Park has just four South-ern League games this season. After The Academy, the Panthers open league play at Mitchell, followed by home games against

Coronado and Discovery Canyon, and the regular season fi nale at Lewis-Palmer.

GOLD COUNTRY MEMORIESWoodland Park football coach Joe Ros-

kam got his start as a varsity coach with Cripple Creek-Victor in 2000. He spent four seasons with the program before taking over at Sierra in 2004.

“I’ve always been thankful to the people in Cripple Creek for giving me a shot,” Ros-kam said.

Roskam took over at Woodland Park in 2011.

DUDE, WHERE’S MY BOARD?Elite skateboarders from around the

world will be ripping down a course this week at over 60 MPH on the Pikes Peak Highway.

The action takes place Saturday at 10 a.m. and Sunday at 9 a.m. as Colorado Springs hosts the Pikes Peak Downhill for the fi rst time as part of the International Downhill Federation’s 2013 Tour.

Fans can watch the world’s fastest skate-boarders take on the famous Pikes Peak Highway, home of the legendary Pikes Peak

International Hill Climb, and the world’s highest toll road, at an elevation of 14,110 feet.

Some 100 to 120 competitors will at-tempt to reach the fi nals during qualifying runs on Saturday, with 64 of them moving ahead to Sunday’s fi nals.

The new event, the fi rst of its kind on America’s Mountain, is presented by Road Rider, Powell Peralta, and the Colorado Springs Sports Corporation.

The world’s fastest skateboarders will travel to Colorado Springs from around the world, including Europe, South America and Australia, to take on Pikes Peak, one of the most highly anticipated stops on the In-ternational Downhill Federation tour.

Beginning at an elevation of over 11,000 feet at Glen Cove, racers will compete over 1.4 miles of sweeping turns, steep drops, and banked hairpin corners, fi nishing at the 10,767-foot Ski Area.

Competing in 4-man heats, racing will be heated and tight, with wheel-to-wheel battles for draft position, and rally car-style drifting to set up the tightest corners.

For more information and complete de-tails go to www.pikespeakdownhill.com.

Powering up the Panthers Woodland Park senior Kelee Suggs is smacking the so� ball around the � eld with regularity By Danny Summers Dsummers@ourcoloradonews.com

Woodland Park may have its best all-around softball team in recent memory. The Panthers have talent and depth at all nine positions and seemingly get along well on and off the fi eld, as evidenced by “The Moose Duck Face” players and coaches dis-play on various occasions.

Among the most talented, if not the best all-around player on the team, is senior Kelee Suggs.

A four-year starter, Suggs can play a va-riety of positions (catcher being her best) and is a lethal leadoff hitter (she clubbed four extra base hits among her eight total hits through the team’s fi rst three games).

“It’s awful nice to get that leadoff hitter on base, much less have her hit the ball out of the park,” Woodland Park coach Dale Huntington said.

Suggs downplays her ability to crank the ball over the fence.

“Stats wise, a home run is the same thing as a single; they both count as a hit for bat-ting average,” she said. “But yeah, I’d rather hit a home run.”

At a practice last week, Suggs was joined by senior Mallorie Trichell and Lexi Comer in an impromptu home run derby.

“They were all going off,” Huntington said. “Kelee must have knocked 10 out.”

Suggs offensive numbers are just plain silly. Through the team’s fi rst three games, she is batting .625 (5 for 8) with two home runs, triple, double, four RBIs and six runs

scored.This season is not an aberration for Sug-

gs. In 2012, she batted .548 with fi ve hom-ers and 40 RBIs. Her power numbers were second on the team to Trichell’s nine home runs and 41 RBIs.

“Every day is a competition with Kelee,” Trichell said with a grin. “We’re like sisters. We don’t like losing to each other or any-body else.

“It’s a good competition because it push-es us to get better. I cheer the loudest for Kelee.”

Suggs is the team’s main catcher for most games, but she will see time at shortstop.

“I love Kelee catching,” said Trichell, who sports a 2-1 record as the team’s main pitcher.

“She makes pitching a lot easier because she’s always so calm. Very competitive.”

Suggs admits that she wasn’t sure how good the team would be after losing so many starters to graduation.

“When our seniors left last year I said `Oh man, this is going to be a bad year,’” said Suggs, who is hoping to play softball in college. “We lost one of our starting pitch-ers, our whole outfi eld.

“But we’re not bad. Not at all. I think we have just as much as potential as last year. If not more.”

Suggs lives in Florissant, but attends Manitou Springs High School. She’s drives there each day with her sophomore sister, Morgan, who is a utility player for the Pan-thers.

Morgan is batting .375.“I like playing with her,” Suggs said of

playing with Morgan. “She helps me to put my standards up higher.”

Suggs decided to play for Woodland Park (Manitou Springs does not fi eld a team) be-cause of her long history playing club ball with Huntington on the Aqua Sox.

She has taught preschool, kindergarten through second grade, and also served as a director in a childcare center in Jefferson County. She holds a master’s degree in early childhood education, and is a licensed teacher for students through third grade in Colorado and Arizona.

The staff at Peak Children’s Academy is highly qualified, with each teacher having more than 15 years experience in early childhood education. “Each individual was hand-selected based on their education, compassion and dedication for this field,” says Marie Pettus, Assistant Director. This outstanding instructional team is supported by a strong administrative staff that manages the business side with great attention to detail.

Peak Children’s Academy’s philosophy is based on the belief that quality early education is essential to the development and growth of a child. The center desires to guide and nurture each child by providing learning experiences in the areas of social, emotional, cognitive, and language development. Owner/Director Angie Paul says, “It is our goal to provide a loving and safe environment for each child, and elevate the learning atmosphere where each child will develop attitudes that will enable them to reach their full potential.”

Ideas abound for Memorial Park Morrison: ‘� e park belongs to the community’ By Pat Hill phill@ourcoloradonews.com

Presented with three concepts for the redesign of Memorial Park, residents and parks’ advisory board members agreed and disagreed. In follow-up to the public visioning exercises in July, Land Patterns, Inc. asked for input Aug. 28 at the Ute Pass Cultural Center.

With 160 responses from a public sur-vey, the results were varied but each re-tained the pond, chimney, playground and gazebo.

“The park belongs to the community, so each one of these designs responds to the larger notion of a civic park,” said Dave Morrison, designer with Land Pat-terns.

“This is where we come together to do community functions.”

Of importance to the responders were landscaping, a playground, walking trails, a splash-pool area, benches, basketball and volleyball courts and a covered picnic area for families, as well as the commu-nity.

“We definitely focused on pedestrian circulation, access to water and establish-ing a balance between active versus pas-sive recreation opportunities,” said Bryan

Kniep, who with Morrison and David Mi-jares, designed the park’s master plan.

The project springs from the city’s comprehensive plan, which identified the improvements as the No. 1 priority for the Parks and Recreation Department, whose director is Cindy Keating.

While the first concept featured a 150-seat amphitheater at the north entrance, the second proposed a pavilion with a two-tiered dock that faced the pond. Con-

cept No. 2 added a deck to the adjacent senior center, one that faces the park.

The third concept put the proposed aquatic project on the Center Street side of the park as well as a staircase entrance on the south entrance.

This concept would include a large performance center near the pond and a boardwalk around the water.

“Any area on any of our designs can be used for multiple things, not just one thing,” Morrison said. “That’s really criti-cal, mainly because of the constraints of the park itself.”

Each design allows for additional park-ing spaces and public restrooms.

Along with offering the design con-cepts, the company provides the cost esti-mates for each.

“There is a sense of urgency, some of it imposed by our budget cycle,” said City Manager David Buttery. “We hope to do some improvements by 2014.”

Mayor Dave Turley agreed. “These im-provements have been on my list of things we want to see for quite some time,” he said.

“Some things look so grandiose. While ‘grandiose’ can be phased, I want us to ac-tually make some improvements and not just spend money on design and not be able to do anything.

“I think that digs us into a hole, so my goal is to come up with some good ideas and actually be able to make some things happen.”

Land Patterns expects to present the final plans to the City Council by the end of September.
