RUNOFF BEGINS

Businessman and career politician square off in COS mayor’s race

BY PAM ZUBECK | zubeck@csindy.com

BOTH

POLITICAL NEWcomer and businessman

Yemi Mobolade and veteran politician Wayne Williams will face challenges in securing new followers leading up to the May 16 mayoral runoff. Mobolade, a self-labeled independent in the nonpartisan race, will need to widen his appeal. And Williams — not a favorite among the El Paso County Republican Party structure — will have to do the same.

As of April 5, Mobolade had tallied nearly 30 percent of the vote in the 12-way mayor’s race, with Williams getting 19.2 percent. Running third was former El Paso County Commissioner Sallie Clark, with 17.8 percent in a race that drew 108,659 votes, a turnout of about 35 percent. Turnout in the 2019 city election, where Mayor John Suthers was reelected without a runoff, was 37 percent.

City Council will remain firmly in the hands of conservatives, with Suthers’ and developers’ chosen candidates — David Leinweber, Lynette Crow-Iverson and Brian Risley — winning at-large seats and Michelle Talarico prevailing in the Westside and Southwest side District 3 to fill an unexpired term. The seat was vacated by Richard Skorman in late 2021, and his appointed replacement Stephannie Fortune chose not to run due to health concerns.

Those electees will join sitting Councilors Randy Helms, Mike O’Malley and Dave Donelson to form a solid conservative bloc, while Yolanda Avila and Nancy Henjum, who are considered by many to be more moderate and progressive than their counterparts, will remain a small minority.

The winners raised well over $50,000 each (Leinweber more than $91,000) in campaign cash, far outpacing others in the 11-person field in the at-large race, or Scott Hiller, Talarico’s opponent in D3.

To no one’s surprise, voters passed a 20-year extension — to 2045 — of the Trails, Open Space and Parks tax by a 78 percent margin after voters soundly defeated a measure in November 2021 that would have doubled the tax.

HEADING TOWARD THE MAY 16 mayoral runoff, all eyes will be on political veteran Williams and newcomer Mobolade, a business owner, nonprofit leader, community organizer and former pastor who’s held economic development posts with both the city and the

Colorado Springs Chamber & EDC.

Williams held elected seats with the county for 12 years and served one term as Colorado Secretary of State before being defeated and winning an at-large City Council seat.

“Will Yemi be able to position himself so he can capture the Skorman vote, and some of the more conservative vote in the city?” UCCS political science professor Josh Dunn wonders.

Skorman took the most votes in the 2011 mayoral election that April but lost resoundingly in the May runoff against conservative Steve Bach.

Voters can expect Mobolade to remain focused on his message and agenda of being “the unifying leader Colorado Springs needs in these uncertain times,” while not participating in negative campaigning.

In the election’s first phase, dark money groups used negative campaign tactics, mounting attack ads against Williams and Clark that largely centered on the newly adopted water rule that limits annexations.

“This city is ready for leadership that will represent all of Colorado Springs, not just special interests,” Mobolade said in his election night speech to supporters, as reported in a release. “There is a hunger for leaders who are strong, collaborative, committed to unifying our city to solve the challenges our community faces....”

Mobolade vows to work with citizens to solve issues of public safety, infrastructure and the economy. “My campaign will continue to be powered by people and not special interests, and my campaign will continue to offer pragmatic, innovative solutions to meet

the challenges we face,” Mobolade says.

WILLIAMS TELLS THE INDY VIA phone he’ll keep his campaign “positive” and address “issues and important things.” Williams disavows any ties to the campaign committees funded with dark money that pummeled Clark.

“My campaign is the one I control,” he says. “It will be focused on the progress the city has made, and I want to continue making on public safety, economic vitality, roads and transportation, water and addressing challenges we face in homelessness and other areas.”

Though the race is nonpartisan, Williams told a TV reporter on election night he wants to focus on gaining ground with Republican voters.

There’s no doubt the race will be marked by big money.

As Dunn says, Williams has a leg up on name recognition, but he expects to see campaign money pour into both candidates’ coffers.

“It’s just the name of the game in some of these races,” he says. “It’s going to take resources. Without money, it’s difficult to actually get information to the voters.”

Mobolade ran third in both fundraising and spending compared to Williams and Clark but posted donations from 786 unique donors — twice and three times as many as Clark and Williams, respectively.

He also has support of some savvy donors, including The O’Neil Group, which has a stake in the water rule, and Kathy Loo, a matriarch of philanthropic giving and successful businesswoman. Election results will be certified by Friday, April 14.

PHONING it in

BY PAM ZUBECK zubeck@csindy.com

SOMETIME PRIOR TO CITY COUNCIL’S consideration of the controversial water rule in January, an El Paso County Commissioner contacted a Council member with two requests:

• Delay action on the water rule.

• Form a city-county task force to study the water rule further.

That commissioner was Cami Bremer, who holds a financial interest in hundreds of acres potentially impacted by the rule.

She contacted City Councilor Nancy Henjum, which raises questions about whether such communication was proper in light of ethics codes to which the county adheres.

While Henjum ultimately voted in a narrow majority to impose the water rule, which complicates annexation of the Bremer-owned property, she proposed and supported formation of a task force to further research water needs in the city and county.

The water rule emerged last fall after Norwood Development Group, headed by David Jenkins, threatened city officials with a plan to initiate a ballot question seeking to limit annexations based on the city’s water supply. As the majority owner of the 20,000-acre Banning Lewis Ranch on the city’s Eastside, Norwood holds the largest swath of undeveloped land within the city; thus, annexing new large parcels isn’t in Norwood’s interest.

To avoid a ballot measure, Council undertook to adopt an ordinance that would guide when annexations of land made sense in an era of worsening drought and historically low flows in the Colorado River, the city’s chief source of water. (See “Water rules.”)

The rule is a game-changer for those who hoped to annex land, because much of that raw land would otherwise rely on declining groundwater supplies.

Along with others, Bremer and her husband, Eli Bremer, are investors in the nearly 1,800-acre Norris Ranch Joint Venture, which lies beyond the city’s southeast limits. In addition, another 644-acre tract

that lies southeast of Norris Ranch is owned by Cami Bremer’s father-in-law, former County Commissioner Duncan Bremer. (See map online.)

Henjum reports that Cami Bremer disclosed to her that she holds an interest in property outside the city but also made it clear she was making the call as a county commissioner.

“I think she saw an opportunity ... to be in collaboration with City Council and address our regional water challenges,” Henjum tells the Indy. “I wouldn’t say she was using her office.”

When asked if she would make such a call to a county commissioner if the roles were reversed, Henjum says, “I’m not going to be judge and jury.”

Bremer addressed questions about her actions through Vernon Stewart, the county’s executive director of communications, who says via email that no conflict of interest exists and that “Commissioner Bremer has always acted according to statute.”

IN LIGHT OF THE GROWING WATER SHORTages stemming from a 20-year drought and increasing demands on the Colorado River, Colorado Springs Utilities moved last fall to tie new annexations to water supply. The water ordinance surprised some developers, notably La Plata Communities, which proposed annexing 3,200 acres bordering Fountain, dubbed Amara, designed for 9,000 to 10,000 homes. (That proposal has since been withdrawn.)

Proposed in October after La Plata got the preliminary green light for Springs Utilities water just days before, the water ordinance was adopted on first reading on Jan. 10 and on final reading on Feb. 14.

The ordinance gave rise to competing development interests in the April 4 city mayoral election. Norwood and the Housing and Building Association of Colorado Springs backed Wayne Williams, Utilities Board chair. He was accused of an ethics breach amid the campaign by mayoral opponent El Paso County Commissioner Longinos Gonzalez Jr., who noted Williams didn’t disclose the Norwood ballot measure threat prior to Williams voting on Oct. 19 to advance the water rule to City Council. (The Utilities Board and City Council are composed of the same people.)

The status of Gonzalez’s complaint, which by ordinance must be handled confidentially, isn’t publicly known.

Other developers, including The O’Neil Group and banker Ron Johnson, both of whom own significant acreages outside the city, supported mayoral candidate Sallie Clark, who lost in the April 4 election. Wil-

liams will face businessman Yemi Mobolade in the May 16 runoff.

On Oct. 19, Eli Bremer urged the Utilities Board not to advance the water rule.

Eli Bremer, an Air Force Academy grad, said he’s served at Schriever and Peterson Space Force bases where he’s heard from colleagues “gripes of how the commute ate up their time and their budget.” Schriever lies a considerable distance from the east city limits. The Norris Ranch, if developed, could provide housing to Schriever personnel.

Eli Bremer also noted that a dearth of housing was cited as justification for moving Space Force from its provisional headquarters here to Alabama, a 2021 decision that local officials have asked be reconsidered. A decision is pending.

“Our soaring cost of housing makes Colorado Springs less attractive to military expansion,” he told the Utilities Board. If future development is concentrated in Banning Lewis Ranch, he said, a lack of housing near Peterson and Schriever “will be a massive factor in future space programs” here.

The city’s housing shortage is significant. The Common Sense Institute, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization, reported in February 2023 that the housing deficit last year in Colorado Springs ranged from 10,614 to 21,150 units.

“To meet population growth by 2028 and close the housing deficit, between 28,000 and 39,000 housing units will need to be built,” the institute said.

When speaking to the Utilities Board, Eli Bremer didn’t mention he had a financial stake in developing land outside the city, but he acquired that stake soon afterward when Norris Ranch Joint Venture LLC, an entity controlled by Kevin O’Neil (who owns The O’Neil Group) bought it for $17,850,000 days after the Utilities Board meeting in October.

Separately, Drennan Cattle Ranch LLC, controlled by Duncan Bremer, acquired 644 acres close to Norris Ranch in May 2021 for $1,137,500.

The new rule could impact both tracts.

AS

THE WATER RULE WAS MAKING

ITS way through Council approvals, Cami Bremer called Henjum.

Her first comment was to reveal she owns land in the county, Henjum says, but Bremer didn’t go into detail. Henjum says she didn’t know of Bremer’s financial interest in land affected by the water rule until Bremer told her about it.

“She said, ‘We have a financial interest in property

that’s being considered to be annexed,’ and she wanted to let me know that her request was separate from that and her bigger concern was the regional water challenges that we face,” Henjum reports.

Henjum says she and Bremer have cooperated on other issues as elected officials and that “my personal experience with her was one of integrity and ethics.”

She further says she doesn’t believe the call from Bremer was an attempt to unduly influence the process. “She was very up front with me,” Henjum says.

“I can’t compel the county commissioners to make different decisions than they’re making on land without renewable water,” Henjum says. “But I will try to bring them to the table for us to work together. And I saw this as an opportunity to do that.”

In fact, she credits Bremer with the task force idea. “To be quite frank, she planted a seed for me and I give her credit for elevating the need for having a more robust regional water discussion,” she says.

During the Jan. 10 Council meeting, Henjum asked for help in arranging a meeting with county officials about the water situation and voted with Stephannie Fortune, Randy Helms, Mike O’Malley and Wayne Williams to approve the water rule.

Eli Bremer spoke at the Jan. 10 meeting but didn’t reveal he was an investor in the Norris Ranch or other property affected by the rule. He argued against the rule based on his contention it would create a monopoly on land development, an obvious reference to Norwood.

On Jan. 24, Council considered the rule on second reading. Henjum promoted the idea of a regional task force, asked staff what impact a delay in approval would have, and asked if the county has been involved in discussions of water issues. She then moved to postpone the matter; that failed. She also asked that a regional water commission be created by March 14; that also failed. Henjum then voted with a 6-3 majority to approve the

rule but modify the “buffer” of on-hand water percentage from 130 percent to 128 percent.

At Council’s Feb. 14 meeting, the ordinance received a third reading made necessary by that change to 128 percent.

Henjum stated a county commissioner “reached out” to her “to request a delay” and propose a task force be formed by the city and county.

The delay didn’t fly, and she later made the motion to approve the water rule, which carried on a 5-4 vote — the same split as at the Jan. 10 meeting.

Colorado Counties Inc., an organization that represents 61 counties on proposed legislation and other concerns, reports that it has no data on disclosure requirements of member counties. Nor does the Colorado Municipal League track which of its 269 members require disclosure statements.

Ordinance requires Colorado Springs Council members and the mayor to file annual disclosure statements.

limited liability company.

But El Paso County elected officials aren’t required to disclose any of their holdings in written statements.

“We are not aware of any requirement for currently serving county commissioners to ‘disclose’ assets etc. outside of what may have been required as part of their campaigns or candidate committees,” Stewart says via email.

Thus, the public has no easy way to know about their financial interests.

It’s worth noting that investors in the Norris property and the Drennan Cattle Ranch property aren’t delineated in public

AS

HENJUM NOTED, SHE

DIDN’T know of Cami Bremer’s financial interest until it was disclosed to her in the phone call. Which raises the question of public disclosure.

The Indy asked Bremer to explain how a potential conflict of interest could be known or discovered by the public, since county officials aren’t required to file disclosure reports; what efforts have been made to require disclosure; and whether she would support that effort.

Bremer didn’t address any of those questions in the written statement provided by Stewart.

Colorado law requires elected officials to file periodic disclosures providing “basic information about their income and liabilities,” according to the Colorado Secretary of State’s website.

Those officials include the attorney general, governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, treasurer, justices and judges, General Assembly members, Bingo-Raffle Advisory Board members, University of Colorado regents, district attorneys, Gaming Commission members, Lottery Commission members, trustees of the Public Employees Retirement Association board, Racing Commission members and State Board of Education members.

The disclosures are available to the public upon request. The Indy sought those of several officials, all of whom reported property, IRA investments, life insurance policies and the like owned by them and their spouses.

Water rule

The water rule requires the city to have 128 percent of the water necessary to serve the existing city and land proposed for annexation before the annexation is approved. The rule also includes requirements that not less than 25 percent of the perimeter of the land proposed for annexation be contiguous with city limits.

Currently, the city owns roughly 95,000 acre feet of water, depending on which formula is applied, and uses about 73,000 acre feet per year.

Council could exempt the water rule if a “unique and extraordinary event or circumstance necessitates an extension of water services to serve critical interests of the City” or the area in question is an enclave or the area is owned or leased by the city, or extension of water service to the area would have a small impact on the city’s water supply.

Mayor John Suthers reported in 2022, for example, that his wife, Janet, holds an interest in a limited liability company. Wayne Williams reported he owns an interest in his law practice, and Henjum reported owning a portion of a

Water worries

Why is the water rule important?

Even as the Colorado River’s levels gradually decline, the city’s acute shortage of housing intensifies, forcing rents and home prices upward.

Norwood Development Group, which owns most of the 20,000-acre Banning Lewis Ranch on the Eastside, wanted to mount a ballot measure to limit annexations and thereby preserve the city’s water supply for land within the city limits. The city responded by setting a high hurdle for proposed annexations to occur. (See “Water rules,” p. 7.)

Annexation is key for thousands of acres, because much of that raw land sits atop groundwater aquifers that are gradually depleting and can’t be relied upon to serve the thousands of homes developers want to build. If developed in the county, developers would have to secure 300 years’ worth of water under county development rules. That’s a challenge as aquifers decline and renewable water sources are snapped up by others.

Why is the Colorado River such a key factor?

Colorado Springs Utilities gets two-thirds of its water supply from the Colorado River, meaning as river levels drop, the city becomes vulnerable to curtailments, should that be necessary.

The city is especially at risk, as are many other users, because, “All of our Colorado River water rights are junior to the Colorado River Compact of 1922,” Utilities spokesperson Jennifer Jordan says.

That means those with senior rights could receive more favorable terms under the construct of the state’s water law that follows the rule of “first in time, first in priority,” should curtailments be necessary.

The compact divides the area into the Upper Division, which includes Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming, and the Lower Division, which includes Nevada, Arizona and California.

Because there’s never been a need to curtail water usage from the Colorado, “Should a Compact call occur,” Jordan says, “it is unknown exactly how that would be administered by the Colorado Division of Water Resources, but it is reasonable to assume that rights that are junior to the Compact could be impacted first.”

Some transmountain water owned by Utilities flows into Pueblo Reservoir, built as part of the Fryingpan-Arkansas River project, which is managed by the Southeastern Colorado Water Conservancy District.

It’s delivered to the city via the $825 million Southern Delivery System, which went online in 2016, and the older Fountain Valley Authority line.

The city’s local water supply, from Pikes Peak and Monument Creek, which provides 16 percent of the city’s supply, are senior water rights, Jordan says.

How would water be rationed, or will it?

Should a curtailment of the Colorado River be necessary, how that would be handled remains

unknown, SECWCD’s senior policy and issues manager Chris Woodka says.

“Water right priority could figure in,” he says.

But how it would be applied isn’t known — by basin, by project (such as the Fryingpan-Arkansas), by user class or some other method.

Also, if a priority call is made in order to keep Lakes Powell and Mead at levels where they can continue to function, it’s not known if that call would affect all users equally or just certain basins.

“Since we don’t know that answer, we can’t really say in any one basin, ‘You’re vulnerable.’ It could be administered proportionately,” Woodka says, meaning, “Everyone is equally at risk.”

Who will decide?

“The Colorado River situation presents a nexus of federal, state and interstate laws and agreements,” Jordan explains. “Since a Compact call has never happened before, there are many unknowns, and we may see some decisions eventually play out in court.”

So far, she says, the Upper Basin states have never failed to meet their obligations to the Lower Basin states, despite having to manage with less water than they’re entitled to during dry years.

The Upper Colorado River Basin Compact (1948) places the responsibility for deciding how to divide any water use reductions among the states on the Upper Colorado River Commission.

“Because Colorado is a headwaters state and holds the largest Colorado River apportionment in the Upper Basin, it could bear the brunt of a Compact call,” she says.

The Bureau of Reclamation manages federal reservoirs, which include Lakes Mead and Powell, she says.

“These Lower Basin reservoirs are at such critical levels that the BOR is currently conducting an environmental analysis in order to implement temporary operational guidelines for the next few years, or until the river’s 2007 interim operational guidelines expire and are renegotiated in 2026,” Jordan says. “What these temporary guidelines will be and how they will impact Colo -

rado River users are unknown at this time.”

Bottom line: “The risks to our Colorado River supplies are serious,” she says.

What can be done?

Plan and conserve.

When Utilities officials plan for future growth, they fold in a 20 percent reduction in those water supplies and a 25 percent reduction in exchange potential. (Some water rights allow a user to use and reuse water to extinction, which involves complicated exchanges with other users on various waterways.)

Utilities has emphasized that homeowners should opt for water-wise plants or xeriscaping to radically reduce outdoor water use, which accounts for about 40 percent of all usage. The recently adopted development code, called RetoolCOS, contains restrictions on the amount of high-water turf grass allowed in new developments. Tiered water rates also encourage conservation.

Utilities is in pursuit of additional water rights from Arkansas Valley farmers through water sharing agreements that, among other things, help fund more efficient center-pivot irrigation systems used for crops.

Any good news?

The city’s reservoirs contain a 2.5-year supply of water.

“In the Fry-Ark collection system, we are at 125 percent of median snowpack so far this year,” Woodka reports.

Snowpack on the Western Slope, from which the city gets most of its water, ranges from 145 percent to 179 percent of average, the Colorado Sun reported on March 30, citing the Natural Resources Conservation Service Snow Survey.

But one wet year isn’t enough to overcome two decades of drought, Bureau of Reclamation Commissioner Camille Calimlim Touton said April 3, The New York Times reported.

land records; rather, only the limited liability company names are disclosed.

TURNING TO

ETHICS CODES,

THE city has its own code adopted after Colorado voters approved Amendment 41 in 2006, which established regulations relating to public officials accepting gifts. Amendment 41 applies statewide unless jurisdictions enact separate codes.

The city’s code is sweeping and applies to virtually everyone: elected officials, employees, members of boards and commissions and the like.

It asserts the city is committed to “complete honesty, utmost integrity, fair dealing and ethical behavior as the basis of its businesses, operations and services to the community.”

The city’s code prohibits conflicts of interest, notably, “No covered person shall directly or indirectly participate in any matter involving the City where they or a member of their family has a direct or indirect substantial financial interest. If a direct or indirect substantial financial interest exists, the covered person shall make known that interest to the appropriate persons and shall refrain from participating in the matter as it is dealt with by the City.”

A final clause in the city’s code attempts to cover any activities not directly iterated in the policy, stating, “No covered persons shall engage in any activity that may create, or does create, the appearance of impropriety.”

The state ethics code Amendment 41, to which the county must adhere, states that those covered by the code, including county commissioners, “should not acquire or hold an interest in any business or undertaking which he has reason to believe may be directly and substantially affected to its economic benefit by official action to be taken by an agency over which he has substantive authority.”

Moreover, the code says members of local governing bodies with a personal or private interest in matters pending or proposed before those bodies “shall disclose such interest to the governing body and shall not vote thereon and shall refrain from attempting to influence the decisions of the other members of the governing body in voting on the matter.”

The code further bars government officials from performing an official act “directly and substantially affecting to its economic benefit a business or other undertaking in which he ... has a substantial financial interest.”

That statewide policy has been routinely adopted annually by El Paso County commissioners as part of the county’s legislative and parliamentary rules and procedures. It was most recently adopted on Jan. 31, 2023, and signed by Cami Bremer as board chair.

In his statement on Bremer’s behalf,

Stewart asserts that Bremer has “no current conflict of interest” regarding her land ownership and that she “took no official action, and even if she had, there was no outcome that affected her financial interests.”

Stewart also says there’s no pending application to the county affecting Bremer’s land and if an application is filed at some point, “Commissioner Bremer will seek legal advice.”

Asked whether Bremer plans to participate in appointing a water task force, serving on it or directing it, Stewart didn’t answer, saying Henjum and Bremer “continue to work together for regional solutions.”

IT’S WORTH NOTING THAT THE O’Neil Group had nothing to do with Cami Bremer making the phone call to Henjum, the firm’s Chief Strategy Officer Andy Merritt says.

“Do I know she had a conversation with Nancy? Yes, but not beforehand,” Merritt says. “I know for a fact Kevin [O’Neil] has never talked to Cami about the project at all.”

Also, O’Neil has not given campaign contributions to Cami Bremer in either of her commissioner races in 2018 or 2022.

Merritt notes that the Norris property annexation is far from dead, because the city’s water supply could increase as more water rights are obtained by the city, or the developer could acquire water in some other way.

In any event, Henjum didn’t read Bremer’s call as a ploy to influence her vote, and if that was the goal, it failed.

“I took her at face value that she could talk to me separate from her interest,” Henjum says. “She disclosed to me... I chose to interact with her. My goal all along is to work with every elected official to develop collaborative relationships ... and certainly we need better relations with the county.

“I saw an opportunity to elevate [that] and have a conversation, and ultimately I didn’t vote in the way she wanted me to vote, which was to delay it,” she says.

Henjum goes on to say the uproar over the water rule could have been avoided.

“Shame on us as a city and utilities board of directors for not doing this work before a developer brought this to our attention,” she says. “We should have been doing this long before Norwood brought this to the city.”

The Indy asked Mary Lou Makepeace, city councilor from 1985 to 1997 and mayor from 1997 to 2003, for her impression.

She called Bremer’s phone call the start of “a slippery slope.”

“The mood right now is people don’t trust elected officials, and this is one reason they don’t trust elected officials,” she says. “They’re behind closed doors on some things.”

Luck and his crew are in charge of the food, while the Fitzgeralds have designed separate cocktail lists for Folklore and its ancillary fine cocktail lounge, The Tipperary. (Brother Luck has also repurposed his upstairs space The Studio to offer five-course, reservation-only meals; more details at chefbrotherluck.com/the-studio.)

Welcome back! How was your spring break? Cool. Mine sucked. I got laid off. Haha! Just a little gallows humor to restart my old column. Don’t worry, we’re all good. Though I’m no longer in-house at the Indy, I’m thrilled that the alt-weekly is back under its original banner, and I’m grateful that they’re syndicating a snippet of my newly launched Substack, Side Dish with Schniper (sidedishschnip.substack.com). You can subscribe free for additional news content sent to your inbox weekly. There’s also a paid option that gets you early access to my dining reviews.

Anyhoo, that’s the one time I’m gonna ’splain all that, and now that the housekeeping’s done, let’s get back to business. Here’s a couple prominent items I reported on during the hiatus...

We dropped by Folklore a couple of days before the March 23 soft opening for a preview, and bought ourselves a few dishes recommended by the staff-in-training. We also received some cocktail samples from Inez, who codesigned Folklore’s $11 cocktail menu. Inez explained that by contrast to The Tipperary, “at Folklore’s bar we aren’t taking bartending too seriously; we’re having fun.” Which partly explains a drink named the Irish Trash Can, made with peach vodka, rum and Blue Curacao, which gets served with a can of Red Bull in the glass to constantly refill it as you sip.

One Tipperary cocktail is named the Tipperary, and it’s potent, made with Irish whiskey, Green Chartreuse, sweet Italian vermouth and aromatic bitters. It’s one of the “forgotten classics” that Sean says they researched (and made riffs off, for an opposing menu page). My sip evoked an eggnog association, not for a heavy creaminess, as there is none, but because of a baking spice finish to the flavor. The Tipperary’s bar, according to manager/bartender George Dillon, stocks more than 20 Irish whiskeys, with even more on the way soon.

The highly anticipated Folklore loreirishpub.com), which replaces Lucky Dumpling at 26 S. Wahsatch Ave., opened March 23. If you missed its backstory, catch up at csindy.com with my March 1 Side Dish column.

The reason I say it was highly anticipated has a lot to do with Folklore being the next chapter in celebrity chef Brother Luck’s career. But it’s worth factoring in the influence of Folklore co-owners Sean and Inez Fitzgerald via their popular local establishments Wobbly Olive and Allusion Speakeasy.

By joining forces here, Luck and the Fitzgeralds are covering all the bases between back and front of the house.

By way of a mini critique, I can say all the food we tried was beautifully executed that night. The fish and chips had a nice, non-greasy jacket over the walleye (points for the zingy house tartar) and the wedge-cut spuds were well browned, with a soft, warm

core, seasoned with a faint garlic herb essence. The lamb stew pot pie is hearty, with a flaky puff pastry topper gifting a textural treat. The “recomposed” Scotch Eggs Benedict tastes as good as it’s presented, with lamb sausage croquettes resting against the poached eggs on toast doused with mustard vinaigrette.

We finished with Irish Coffee Cheesecake. I was thinking it might cloy, but Luck has always had a strong pastry program and the booze notes show up in perfect balance inside the cake slice, garnished with a whipped cream dollop, tempered chocolate wedge and Oreo cookie crumble.

and the beef bits have an American pot roast vibe, making it feel like a hearty winter dish. Overall, Formosa continues to shine.

Now the personal story, which Formosa shared at length in their own March 28 Facebook post. I’d loosely kept in touch with Terry because I was a fan of his food, and often with my reviewing I’m essentially championing businesses that make our food and drink scene more rich and robust. (That’s something discussed in my State of Plate podcast, available wherever you stream.) I felt empathy for the family when they were dealing with their broken-down food truck. And I was glad my updated reporting was able to help direct fans and new patrons to their temporary commissary distribution. One day while picking up my own to-go order there, I told Terry about The Well, asking if he’d ever thought about pivoting to another model, since the food truck was already a big hit. I gave him The Well project consultant Justin Anderson’s contact info should he be interested — simply playing a community connector role. Months later, I learned Formosa Bites had signed on to the 2023 vendor lineup.

Consider this blurb part news update, part micro review and part personal story. It starts with sharing that Taiwanese food truck Formosa Bites (facebook.com/formosabitesco) joined up for a brick-and-mortar stall at The Well, which I first reported on here in late January. I’d previously noted in December 2022 that the outfit had moved to a temporary take-and-bake model due to a long saga relating to their truck being disabled. And I’d originally reviewed the then-3-monthold truck this time last year, in March 2022, when their red chili oil wontons blew me away.

I stopped into The Well a couple weeks ago to catch up with chef/owner Terry Lim. I was concurrently meeting to mentor a Community Cultural Collective culinary apprentice program student (attached to the Shovel Ready food stall). Terry prepared a few of his newly added menu items for us to do a practice review on.

From our combined tasting notes, we felt the fried oyster mushrooms were nice and meaty (for a veggie dish) with inherent umami contrasted by a sweet Mae Ploy chili sauce dip. The fried buns are more of a dessert than starter, with sweetened condensed milk sauce drizzled over the puffy, chewy bites. The Taiwanese beef noodle soup has a couple nontraditional features according to Lim, such as the addition of daikon and carrot. He uses Chinese ramen noodles, which hold a lovely, soft chew while resisting becoming waterlogged by the broth; they alone are a highlight, we felt. The broth holds a mild spiciness

For me, this was all behind-thescenes banter that I had no intention of broadcasting. Nor would I take credit for what came to be. But for Lim and family, it turned out to have more significance. In their post, they wrote: “[Matthew’s] role as a connector helped us tremendously. I likened him to being our guì rén, loosely translated to a helpful person at pivotal moments of our lives. In Asian culture, the role of one is highly revered and respected.”

Well, I’m incredibly humbled by the designation and grateful I could play a helpful role just by doing my job and allowing some humanity to accompany the formality of journalism. I’m following our standard newsroom methods and ethics with my new Substack venture, but I’ll be editorializing more often on that platform and straying from straight objective reporting. Potential conflict of interest will always remain top of mind, but I will be actively out in the community, likely making more connections like these over time. It’s partly how we’re going to collectively build the food and drink scene we want to see — by helping one another out where possible. That doesn’t have to end as the pandemic era wanes.

Anyway, thanks for tuning back in to this new era of Side Dish. I’m glad to still have you at the dinner table (or bar counter) with me. Stick around for continued culinary adventures out into the Springs’ scene. Cheers, and see you here next week.

COMMONWHEEL ARTIST CO-OP

Masculine Places by various artists

102 Cañon Ave.

Through May 1

Masculine Places is perhaps an unconventional exploration of masculinity. Jon Sargent’s black and white photography of a nude male in nature portraying different emotional states displays seldom seen vulnerability. His photographs, taken from his book Sonnets of the Male Nude, are punctuated by oil paintings by Chris Alvarez of cars, trucks and other mechanical beasts of machismo alongside a native chief in full headdress. Maria Battista contributes a series of sculptures showing figures permanently locked in internalized struggles.

MANITOU ART CENTER

Wunderkind 2023 exhibition

513 Manitou Ave.

Through May 1

The 24th Annual Wunderkind Exhibit, displaying some of the best artwork by high school juniors and seniors in the Pikes Peak region, is an exciting show of talent and mixed mediums. These young artists had plenty to say about the world around them — including social norms and mental health — while dabbling with both real and digital paints. They also branched — quite literally — into metalwork, with wire trees embedded in wood and WWII-era American combat airplanes welded from scrap metal.

KREUSER GALLERY

APRIL 7 SAW THE Indy take a deluxe tour of this month’s First Friday to experience the newest offerings from the local art community.

THE BRIDGE/COMMONS GALLERIES

Landscape by various artists

218 W. Colorado Ave. #104

Through April

What better exhibit to fill both the Bridge and Commons galleries than Landscape, a theme that invites large panoramic scenes. Dana Tullis and Chris Alvarez covered beautiful rolling hills and sunsets with oils while Pam Farris juxtaposed black rifles and white doves in mosaic for “Power.” Photographers, potters and idyllic ocean scenes were welcome, too.

Now Streaming by Ben Bires, Abundance by Lelia Davis and Novel Constellations

by Cymon Padilla

125 E. Boulder St.

Through March

Nothing catches an elder Millennial’s eye quite like Cymon Padilla’s “Homer” — in which a Homer Simpson mug glances up at a rose in a rectangle — or Now Streaming, the modern title for Ben Bires’ exquisitely detailed paintings of waterways. Streaming ’s hyper-detailed, turbulent waters and rockbeds stand in contrast with the more fantastical scenes of nature by Lelia Davis. Her soft-focused works feature dapples of color and light, granting them a whimsical look and feel. Alongside “Homer”, Padilla chops and screws historical works and then tosses pop culture darts at them, like neon blue Disney birds, tipped over electric scooters and a vase adorned with a Coca-Cola logo.

THE LOOK UP GALLERY

Chromaesthetic Juxtaposition by Karen Mosbacher and Dave Gochis

11 E. Bijou St.

Through April

It’s just like they say: you step inside the Yobel boutique shop and #JustLookUp for an in-store gallery experience. This month, Look Up had prolific painter Karen Mosbacher “touch up” portraits of local arts leadership by chef-turned-photographer Dave Gochis. The Community Cultural Collective’s Linda Weise, G44’s Gundega Stevens, Abigail Kreuser and COPPeR’s Angela Seals are among those who got not just largeformat black and white portraits, but trippy enhancements, too.

G44 GALLERY Pathways, Energies, and Rhythms by Sarah Wright and Held by the Sun by Kristy Kensinger

121 E. Boulder St.

Through April 28

Sarah Wright’s work stands out on any wall she’s on, so what do you do when her work is on nearly every wall? With sharp edges, distinct geometric forms and a wide palette of colors, what may initially seem very abstract become very real scenes as you dive in. It’s hard not to imagine yourself on a lakefront or a wind-carved desert canyon with these pieces. Not to be overshadowed, the South Gallery features Kristy Kensinger’s beautiful scenes of broad strokes of sunlight on crudely defined shores and landscapes. The starkly lit “Lifted” and “Night Swim” were favorites.

LIGHTSPEED CURATIONS

Tudor House of Kosmic Fun by various artists

306 S. 25th St.

Through April

The Smokebrush Foundation’s Kat Tudor brought her family and Art Club creators for a one-of-akind blacklight gallery exhibition. The show had plenty of neon delights when the blacklights were on — big planks and small, framed works — giving off original Nicktoon vibes with odd ’90s geometry and chaotic typography. One of the seats was a painted egg’s nest and Bob Tudor brought a full-sized knight with shield and bright red, magnetically attached pinwheels. (We sadly didn’t get to see it in motion with their provided fan.)

Long live THE INDY

OF ALL THE KEYS TO A REWARDING life, one always has stood out for me. You must be willing to admit when you’re wrong — and be diligent in correcting mistakes. Sincerely. Not just for yourself, but for anyone else affected by your actions, or the situations you inherit.

That philosophy has come back to mind in full force the past two months, not just once but repeatedly, as the Sixty35 Media saga has unfolded. Our company tried to do something bold, unique, even daring, with a dash of audacity thrown in for good measure.

Could it have succeeded with better planning, promotion and preparation, not to mention more time to make the transition? Maybe, or perhaps not, but why dwell on that now? The main point was, we undervalued and almost lost our most valuable asset — you, the readers — by taking away what had become a true community treasure.

Yes, the Indy

My emeritus position in retirement did not include being involved last year with the decisions to take the company nonprofit and cause such upheaval. I could have spoken up, actually should have, and regret not providing more input after spending my last working years as executive editor of the Independent, Colorado Springs Business Journal and the Pikes Peak Bulletin

My position as a Sixty35 Media board member, though, provided another opportunity as 2023 arrived. At first, it appeared to be a chance to help stabilize the company and its new printed product. Soon, though, that quest led me to the brink of being a pallbearer for Sixty35 news magazine’s funeral.

But that would have meant giving up. And not rectifying the mistakes. Pulling the plug simply was not an acceptable option for the inner core of Sixty35 Media — even though we had to go through the horrific ordeal of cutting staff and pleading for the community to help.

You saw the recent headline: Do or Die. Followed the next week by another: Doing, Not Dying.

And now, with this issue, you have your Indy again. We made mistakes. And we’re doing all in our power to fix them, not just with our own energy but with the vital support of our readers and advertisers.

Through the years, my role has included writing

BY RALPH ROUTON CO-PUBLISHER

columns such as this — about the community, about issues that matter to everyone, about people and questions and stories worth sharing. It was never meant to be about us, and we need to remember that now.

As of this edition, embarking on this challenging restart, we must do one thing to give ourselves the best chance: get back to what we do and enjoy the most. That means putting out a damn good newspaper every week, providing a compelling mixture of community news, aggressive investigations, culture and event information — mostly the same approach that worked for the past 30 years.

It’s not like snapping our fingers and simply going back to where we were. It’s still a remodeling project, with some new components and others presented in new ways. In today’s media world, we can’t make it solely on ad revenue anymore. We also can’t sustain the same number of full-time staffers, though we have been able to rehire some who were laid off in mid-March.

As has been stressed in various ways, we can’t be just a free product anymore. We now must have your support, in the form of paid subscriptions and — most of all — memberships. But as a nonprofit now, we obviously aren’t trying to create a new money-making machine — we just need to have a break-even bottom line.

That wasn’t going to happen with Sixty35. Our only chance was to admit the error of our ways, listen to our supporters, not be defensive and instead do whatever we could to avoid shutting down forever.

We will not be perfect, and we will surely make missteps at times. But as long as we try to make them right, we’ll have a chance.

Granted, we’re asking a lot. But we don’t see anyone else trying to provide this service: a still-fresh, feisty and dedicated effort to tell stories that nobody else is telling, along with as much culture, arts and entertainment as possible.

I’m proud, and grateful, to join the Indy ’s remarkable staff of caring and resilient professionals doing everything we can to make it work. If you care about this newspaper and its enduring value to the community around us, please consider some level of commitment. In return, our mission will be to reward your loyalty for years to come.

Long live the Indy!

You must be willing to admit when you’re wrong — and be diligent in correcting mistakes.

FAIR AND UNBALANCED

Tennessee’s assault ON DEMOCRACY

WHEN SO MANY REPUBLIcans rushed to defend Donald Trump after he was charged with fiddling with the books in order to disguise hush-money payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels, I figured the self-described lawand-order, family-values party had reached a new low.

Wait, I didn’t mean an all-time low. Let’s be real. I was thinking, though, surely a low for the week.

Still, I knew there’d be rivals, and I’ve picked out a few to mention. (By the way, please note that I’m skipping Justice Clarence Thomas’ billionairefriend-with-benefits issue because that would require an entire column, or maybe three or four columns, to adequately cover.)

But in Idaho, for example, the governor signed a so-called “abortion trafficking” law that makes it illegal for anyone to help a minor leave the state for an abortion without parental consent. It’s also illegal now in Idaho for anyone to obtain

abortion pills for a minor. And not only that, the penalty in either case would be two to five years in prison. This is part of a trend — seen in many red-state legislatures across the country— to not only ban abortion in most cases but to criminalize it. Maybe Marjorie Taylor Greene is onto something about a red-blue national divorce. Meanwhile, in nearby Montana, where Sen. Jon Tester — Montana’s only Democratic statewide office holder — is up for reelection next year, one house of the state Legislature has passed a bill to create a “jungle primary,” meaning all parties compete in one primary and the top two candidates go to the general election. The problem here is not jungle primaries themselves, which are fine, but that the proposed law, which would sunset in 2025, was written for one race — Tester’s race — and one race only, which doesn’t seem altogether fair or democratic.

It’s probably not a coincidence that Tester’s race is one that could determine which party

controls the U.S. Senate after the 2024 elections. The idea is to keep third-party candidates off the ballot, particularly those who might draw votes from a Republican. But — and I think I mentioned this — it applies only to the 2024 U.S. Senate race in Montana and no other election. Democracy? Hmmm.

SPEAKING OF DEMOCRACY, WE MOVE now to Tennessee, not that I’d ever consider actually moving there. It’s in Tennessee where we hit bottom for the week, although I’m sure there are worthy contenders I’ve left out. I mean, who can even keep up with all the new transphobic legislation?

But in Tennessee, as I’m sure you’ve heard, they went way over the top in order to hit bottom. The state House voted to expel two of its members, and nearly expelled a third, for the crime, in the Tennessee House speaker’s words, of violating “several rules of decorum and procedure on the House floor.”

Yes, both decorum and procedure. And what issue led them to this outrage? Well, it was the murders of six people, including three 9-yearolds, at the Covenant School in Nashville. Sometimes a crime is so heinous that decorum and procedure almost seem secondary.

The three legislators — two African American men and one white woman; can you guess which one wasn’t expelled? — walked down to the well of the House, without permission, bringing a bullhorn with them to lead protesters in support of a no-chance notion to ban so-called assault weapons in the state and to pass bills covering other gun-safety issues.

The shooter had three weapons, and according to police, two of them were AR-style assault weapons. And since the shooting, students and others have been marching to the Capitol in an attempt to make their voices heard. Thousands were inside and outside the Capitol, according to reports, on what we’ll call The Day of the Bullhorn.

But since the protesters weren’t being heard — let’s agree that the overwhelmingly Republican Legislature may want to ban abortions and drag shows and books, but certainly not guns — the three Democrats broke the rules.

I’m not suggesting that breaking the rules should necessarily go unpunished. The Tennessee Three, as they’re being called, did lose their

committee assignments. They could be censured. For all I know, in Tennessee the Legislature could pass a law banning bullhorns.

Or the legislators in question could have spent their time considering any form of gun-safety bill instead of conducting a show trial — in which they expelled the state’s two youngest Black legislators, Reps. Justin Jones and Justin Pearson, and came one vote short of expelling Rep. Gloria Johnson, who is white. Johnson didn’t use the bullhorn, but she did go down to the well with Jones and Pearson and joined in the chants.

Asked why she thought she wasn’t expelled along with her two colleagues, Johnson said, “It might have to do with the color of my skin.”

I can’t look into the hearts, or any other organs, of the Tennessee legislators, but let’s just say a lot of people agreed with Johnson’s assessment. There have been only eight Tennessee legislators expelled in state history, and six of them were Confederates who were kicked out just after the Civil War because they had, um, issues with how the war ended.

AND HERE’S SOME SMALL-D DEMOCRATIC IRONY FOR YOU:

Since the expulsions began immediately after the vote, that means that the two vacancies in the House will have to be filled. Jones represents Nashville, and news reports said that Nashville’s Metro Council — which is equivalent to a city council and which can select the interim representative — would likely reappoint Jones in an emergency meeting vote on April 10, until a special election is called.

Pearson is from Memphis, and don’t be surprised if he is back, too. Tennessee Republicans have seen the expulsions become a national story, and one that will help ensure that gun violence is a major issue in the 2024 presidential election. Even if many red states are loosening gun laws, polls show that a large majority of Americans favor more restrictions.

And so, Joe Biden, who is expected to announce his reelection bid in the near future, has already called the expulsions “undemocratic.” Also, “shocking” and “without precedent.” Kamala Harris traveled to Nashville Friday to meet with the Tennessee Three.

A nation revolted by school violence can now also be revolted by this Tennessee assault on democracy, in which those voters who elected the two expelled representatives were also unfairly punished.

In a speech made on the House floor prior to the expulsion vote, Jones said, “The world is watching Tennessee. What is happening here today is a farce of democracy. What’s happening here today is a situation in which the jury has already publicly announced the verdict.”

On the same day, Pearson reminded those who would expel him that the United States was born in acts of protest.

And according to the history books — including those that have been approved in both red and blue states — the protests, it seems, were not always decorous. And yet, at least for a little while, democracy won out anyway.

Weird science

Australian company Vow has wowed the science world with a meatball made of meat cultivated from the genetic sequence of an extinct mammoth, the Associated Press reported on March 29.

“This is not an April Fools’ joke,” said Tim Noakesmith, founder of the company. Using publicly available genetic information from the mammoth, along with data from the African elephant, Vow grew the cells in a lab. The large meatball — somewhere between the size of a softball and a volleyball — was displayed at the Nemo science museum in Amsterdam. “We wanted to get people excited about the future of food,” Noakesmith said. “We thought the mammoth would be a conversation starter.” People who were there as it was being cooked said it smelled good.

Sounds like a joke

Here’s an item you can share at this weekend’s cocktail party: The animatronics at your local Chuck E. Cheese may be powered by a 3.5-inch floppy disk. Of 600 restaurants around the world, about 50 still use the floppies, BuzzFeed News reported. In related news, a robust subculture of Chuck E. fans builds and restores the iconic animatronics at home, and vintage memorabilia has a strong market online. Here’s the less cheery news: Subway trains in San Francisco run on floppies, and Boeing 747s and 737s get their updates on the ’80s-era medium, too.

Wait, what?

Researchers at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden have found that using mindfulness to treat social anxiety is more effective when combined with sniffing body odor, Sky News reported. The body odor for the study was collected from people watching films, but it didn’t matter whether they watched comedy or horror. Women who participated in a mindfulness session while exposed to the odor saw a 39 percent reduction in social anxiety, while those who did mindfulness alone saw only a 17 percent reduction. The scientists aren’t sure why human sweat affects the response to the treatment.

Entrepreneurial spirit

“Sammie,” a housekeeper in Tampa, Florida, is cleaning up with a twist on the usual duties of the job, the New York Post reported. She makes $300 an hour — before tips — to tidy up a home while topless. “Today I cleaned five houses ... I have a security guy who sits out in the car and waits for me just in case something happens,” Sammie said on a TikTok video. With tips, she made more than $2,000 that day. “If you think you needed a sign, this is your sign,” Sammie advised. “Topless maid cleaning service for the win.” One commenter noted that the security guy had the sweetest deal: $800 to sit in the car.

ON MARCH 24, A SHERIFF’S DEPUTY FROM CHISAGO COUNTY, Minnesota, pulled over a driver who had been speeding through Franconia Township, WFLA-TV reported. When the officer asked for the driver’s identification, he was handed a driver’s license and a “Get Out of Jail Free” card from a Monopoly game. “Unfortunately the state of Minnesota does not recognize this as a valid document,” the sheriff’s office posted on its Facebook page. “Points for the effort and humor though!” The driver was issued a “verbal warning” and allowed to proceed.
