City Council approves new water tank construction

By William J. Dagendesh Manitou Springs City Council grant ed JDS Hydro Consultants Inc. approval to build a second water storage tank.

The announcement was made during the Oct. 4 meeting; council voted 6-0 to approve building an $818,000 ep oxy-coated bolted tank near the existing Mesa tank beginning in late 2023. Mayor Pro Tem John Shada was excused from the meeting.

Gwen Dall, an engineer with JDS Hydro Consultants, said the advantage of building next to the existing tank is that the city owns the land. However, it is a smaller site and is difficult to access.

Dall discussed the pros and cons of concrete, bolted steel and welded carbon steel tanks. She said welded carbon steel has fewer connections to allow leakage and can be re-coated in the field. The disadvantage is that it must be re-coated every 15 years, requires the most

Indigenous People’s Day events will honor — and make — history

By Rhonda Van Pelt

Manitou Springs is setting a precedent for other Colorado towns and cities.

“This is the very first Colorado community to actually do something with the native tribe by bringing the Ute people back to the area,” said Kenny Frost, spiritual leader of the Southern Ute tribe.

He’s one of the key people who have been working to organize the Indigenous People’s Day events, which start Saturday, Oct. 8.

Also helping with this historic occasion: Manuel Pulido and Michael Aku, Manitou residents of Apache heritage; Michael Howell, former collections manager at the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center and Manitou Arts, Culture, and Heritage board member; Lyn Ettinger-Harwell, SunWater Spa chief operating officer and chef; Don Goede, SunWater co-owner; and Mayor John Graham.

An initial committee was formed last November on the heels of Manitou’s inaugural

Indigenous People’s Day, Graham said. On Feb. 6, 2021, City Council unanimously approved the second Monday in October as the day to honor the region’s original inhabitants.

It replaces the day named for Christopher Columbus, now widely viewed as a rapist and killer of North America’s native inhabitants.

Graham explained that the committee was formed mainly to apply for a Manitou Arts,

maintenance and carries a costly price tag.

A concrete tank lasts 100 years and doesn’t require re-coating. However, it has a higher price tag, requires more space and is difficult to build in mountainous areas.

A bolted steel tank offers lower fabrication, shipping and installation costs, and low mainte nance and should be recoated 20-40 years after installation. The disadvantage is that its many connections equal many possible leakage points.

“This tank is easy to construct in a tighter footprint, has the advantage of having that factory-applied coating and has a longer time period between re-coating,” Dall said.

She offered two types of coating: fusion-bond ed epoxy and glass-fused. Fusion-bonded coating costs about 25 percent less and can be re-coated, whereas glass-fused coating has a longer life span and is maintenance-free for up to 50 years.

A glass-fused epoxy-bolted tank costs about $2.3 million compared to the $1.9 million welded steel tank. Councilor Nancy Fortuin opted for the former.

“The trade-off (over 60-70 years) is well worth it,” Fortuin said.

Mayor John Graham said the epoxy-coated bolted tank is less expensive and would offer good results.

“It leaves us with money to bring the plant up to snuff, to refurbish our old tank and get us a little further down the road,” Graham said.

Public Information Officer Alex Trefry provided clarification between the ongoing sit-lie and obstruction ordinances. He said a proposed ordinance amended the sit-lie ordinance in June 2022. When that ordinance was voted down on second reading, council requested further discussion.

Trefry said Ordinance 2416 and Municipal Code 9.46 refer to prohibitions on sitting, lying and displaying items in the downtown area. Ordinance 2716 and Municipal Code 12.32 refers to prohibitions on obstruction.

“The city used to have a panhandling ordinance that was repealed because it was deemed potential ly unconstitutional. So we, as well as many other cities, transitioned over to a sit-lie ordinance, which was enacted in 2016 and is currently in place,” Trefry said.

The obstruction ordinance, enacted in 1974 and amended in 2016, also is in place.

Trefry said that the sit-lie ordinance is intended to preserve safe and unimpeded passage for pedestrians and vehicular traffic. In contrast, the obstruction ordinance regulates behavior on sidewalks, alleys and roads, and prohibits impeding pedestrian or vehicular traffic in these locations.

“It’s meant for keeping a free flow of traffic,” said Trefry, who provided a diagram illustrating the differences.

“The sit-lie ordinance prohibits traditional street performing, which is how this discussion came about. There is no reference to street performing in either of these ordinances,” he said.

city of Manitou Springs,” said Councilor Judith Chandler, who read the proclamation.

City Planner Hannah Van Nimwegen-McGuire thanked council members for their commitment to her department’s work.

“City planning can be very controversial. We work to enforce the public’s general welfare, safety and health, and that can be very difficult to determine,” she said.

Another proclamation recognized October as American Association of Code Enforcement National Code Compliance Month. Councilor Natalie Johnson read the proclamation.

We work to enforce the public’s general welfare, safety and health.

“The obstruction ordinance, in most scenarios, permits street performing. Both are intended to create a better environment in Manitou Springs. They just work a little different,” Trefry added.

“I think it’s important to keep people from sleeping and obstructing our sidewalks, and at the same time find a way to permit street performing in a manner that works both for the businesses and residents,” Councilor Julie Wolfe said.

Also, three proclamations were read, the first recognizing October as Community Planning Month in conjunction with National Community Planning Month.

“National Community Planning Month gives us the opportunity to publicly recognize the participa tion and dedication of members of planning commissions and other citizen planners who have contributed their time and expertise to improving the

“Neighborhood service officers often have a challenging and demanding role and often don’t receive recognition for the job they do in improving living and working conditions for residents and businesses of local communities,” Johnson said.

Additionally, this year is the city’s second annual celebration since the passage of Resolution No. 0421 designating the second Monday in October as Indigenous Peoples Day. It honors the past, present and futures of Native people throughout the nation.

“We highly value and appreciate the good will of the Ute people, the host nation, in re-dedicating both the Ute Indian trail and mineral springs, and wish to honor all the indigenous peoples and extend our friendship to them,” said Mayor John Graham, who read the proclamation.

Lastly, council voted 6-0 to approve a fiber optic installation project at Higginbotham Flats and a paving contract for Midland Avenue and Prospect Place. Council also consented to install public art in 7 Minute Spring Park and at Hiawatha Gardens. Information: tinyurl.com/MSArtOctober.

Slow the Flow will evaluate sprinkler systems

The city of Manitou Springs has partnered with Resource Central to offer free Slow the Flow sprinkler audits.

During the 75-minute evaluations, trained professionals will inspect your system. They will identify problem areas as well as perform tests to help you create the most efficient schedule for your yard.

The audits show that 99 percent of the sprinkler systems evaluated are inefficient. That not only leads to a higher water bill, but also wastes Manitou’s most precious resource: water.

School district no longer feels like a family

To the editor:

I’m writing this letter as a concerned former employee of Manitou Springs School District 14. I taught there for 30 years and loved the time spent there and the feeling that I was valued.

It was always said, “Once you join the school district, you become part of the family.” That was always the value held by the employees, no matter their position. Teachers were willing to work in Manitou because of the “family” attitude, knowing that they could make more in other school districts.

I felt that, even after retiring. I was always welcomed back as a speaker, volunteer or even mentor.

There became a shift as employees began to leave, some of their own accord; others were “asked” to leave. It then changed the whole atmosphere of the district. It was felt at all levels.

From the outside looking in, people no longer felt valued for what they were doing.

The past few years have been extremely difficult for all in education, but the shift in atmosphere from the top administration and even the D14 Board of Education didn’t support the added stress of the times.

I’m hearing from parents and students alike that they are considering moving to another school district because of the number of teachers and administrators who have left in the past three years.

The survey supports the high percentage of personnel having left. (Editor’s note: The Stand Up for Manitou group commissioned an outside firm to survey former employees.)

This reflects poorly on the school district. Because approximately 40 percent of the students are choice, this should be very alarming to the administration and BOE.

I urge the BOE and administration to reflect on the information they’ve been given and rethink their practices that are further undermin ing the value of our school district.

Respectfully, A former D14 employee

Let’s collaborate to find solutions to D14 turnover

To the editor:

I am writing anonymously since we are a choice family. I am very concerned about recent articles I have read about the District 14 turnover.

I would like to respectfully stress the

importance to the community, staff, parents and school board members that we need to find a resolution to the destruction that’s occurring in Manitou School District 14.

Obviously, there will always be an opinion on either side. I feel like the division between the leadership and staff needs serious attention so there can be resolution for the staff and especially for our children.

Yes, there are always going to be staff members who disagree and claim there isn’t even an issue. Maybe, that is because said staff members aren’t being critiqued or criticized in a retaliatory or manipulative manner.

The leadership needs to work WITH the staff to create a better teaching, working and learning environment instead of working against the staff while creating negativity.

I am requesting for the school board members to carefully consider the results, please, from the third-party, very private survey that previous staff have participated in. Facts are facts.

Thank you!

Manitou Ave.

Springs 80829.

On Saturday, Oct. 1, I drove from the east side of Manitou Springs, down Manitou Avenue, to the 150th Alumni and Friends Celebration at the Garden of the Gods Trading Post.

As I entered the city, I absolutely loved seeing the big “M” on the mountain. It can be seen from miles away.

Elizabeth Domangue District 14 superintendent

As you read in last week’s Bulletin, there were so many people involved along the way. I want to recognize Angie Lovato Glass for her dedication to bringing so many people together for this tradition to resume. This was a great partnership between alumni, residents, the city of Manitou Springs and Manitou Springs School District.

This is just one of the many traditions that returned this school year … this 150th anniversa ry year.

The Homecoming Parade was a great example of a community coming together.

I was standing on the road near an elementary teacher when a Manitou fire truck drove by. I looked back at her and she had tears in her eyes. I can only imagine how wonderful it must have felt for her to see her former students all grown up.

This moment captured so much about what makes our school district special. We are a school

district where children are not numbers. We are school district where children can really be known for who they are.

As we have prepared for these events, it has been fun to step back in time and to learn from alumni who attended our schools more than six decades ago.

I have learned so much about our physical buildings.

I have learned about traditions that started in this century.

I have learned about traditions that started in the previous century and continue now.

The most important learnings have been about people.

It is the people who make a school district strong, inclusive, innovative and creative. Our small district is special for many reasons but, most importantly, because of the people.

I have loved learning their stories as students.

I have loved learning about what our alumni have gone on to accomplish.

Clara Meury, Shirley Wade, Gary Miller, Melissa McElhaney, Patti Hickox, Marcy Morrison, Christina Baker, John Harden, Paul Willie — these are some of our many historians who have been a part of the history and continue to tell the great history of Manitou Springs School District.

I know there are many more who know so much

about MSSD. What a gift!

When I think about our school district turning 150 years old, I think about all of the teachers who have taught children to read and encouraged them to keep reading.

When I think about our school district, I think about our visual and performing arts programs that are unique and exciting and world class.

When I think about our school district, I think about children who are able to participate in so many different opportunities that many public schools only imagine providing.

I am so thankful for our educators who keep the legacy going and create new traditions along the way.

Thank you to our parents who are partners with us. Thank you to our alumni who continue to be champions for children.

Thank you to the residents and business owners who continue to support our schools. We appreciate all of businesses in town that posted the “We ❤ Our Manitou Springs Schools” signs and participated in the Homecoming Parade festivities.

Thank you to Tim Haas Sr., Tim Haas Jr. and Terry Haas at the Trading Post for hosting our 150th Alumni and Friends Celebration event.

We have fantastic students. We are going to keep working hard to provide the best education for each and every one of our students for another 150 years.

Culture, and Heritage grant to expand the event’s scope. The current committee members began to coalesce in June.

The mayor was pleased with how that first celebration went.

“The day was warmly received by both residents and the visiting Native peoples. It was low-key, as we put it together quickly and without any budget,” Graham said.

One highlight of this year’s events will be recreating a horseback ride that was taken in 1912, when the Ute Trail was dedicated.

Several people participating are descendants of those riders. Frost is the great-grandson of Chief Nanice, a Ute leader. Also scheduled to attend: Clarence and Estelle Ouray, great-great-grandchil dren of Chief Ouray and his wife, Chipeta; and Uncompahgre Utes Jonas Grant Bullethead and Joy Grant Bullethead.

Organizers are also hoping that the attendees will include descendants of Chief Buckskin Charlie (native name: Sapiah), leader of the Southern Ute tribe from 1880 until he died in 1936.

Frost and Jonas Grant Bullethead will be on horseback to re-dedicate the trail. Afterward, Frost and other Ute elders will rededicate 7 Minute Spring and, by extension, all of Manitou’s springs.

“This is important because it is quintessentially a Manitou Springs quality. No place else on Earth had mineral springs … with Native peoples coming from all over the West to give thanks to the Great Spirit,” Graham said.

“We are unique, and this helps remind us that we live in a special place, gifted with natural beauty, an accessible environment and an interesting history. The human story is at its best here.”

Frost is immensely proud of what his ancestor accomplished for his people. The white occupiers appointed Ouray as chief because he spoke English and Spanish, and Nanice didn’t.

“He wasn’t given credit where credit is due,” Frost said, despite Nanice being the tribe’s actual leader.

Stories about Nanice have been passed down through Frost’s family, which is good, because he’s barely mentioned in history books.

Frost is a consultant on Ute history and sacred sites, Native law and treaties, and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, enacted in 1990. He also assisted Goede with the Manitou Springs Heritage Center display honoring Natives’ contribution to the region over thousands of years.

“The Ute were forcibly removed from this area,” Frost said. “For the Ute to come back here to this area after 150 years, as a total tribe, is historic in itself.”

Volleyball team splits its recent Tri-Peaks League matches

Manitou soccer team is jumping into league play

By Daniel Mohrmann

Fresh off a 3-0 win over Ellicott on Sept. 29, the Manitou Springs boys soccer team is turning its attention to its Tri-Peaks opponents. The Mustangs open league play at Salida on Thursday, Oct. 6, before hosting Lamar on Tuesday, Oct. 11.

And this is where the team will need to thrive.

The Mustangs (6-2-1 overall) have put together a solid enough campaign and are worthy of playoff consider ation. As of Wednesday, Oct. 5, they sat at No. 19 in the CHSAA selection and seeding index, which gives a live status on each team’s playoff standing during the regular season.

Tri-Peaks could certainly play to the Mustangs’ advantage. If they can put together solid performances against teams like Salida and Lamar, and then hope those squads might steal a game from a team like Atlas Prep, Manitou could find itself in striking distance of a league championship.

The talent on the field certainly has the capability. There is diversity in scoring — Evan Yount, Bowman Hall and Weston Cassidy all netted goals in the Ellicott win. Cassidy and Gavin Smith were responsible for the two Manitou assists.

We’re back to seeking shutouts.

— Ben Mack

But coach Ben Mack doesn’t want this team to rest on its laurels. He knows that the boys need to continue working and ensure that their effort matches their playoff desire.

“Moving forward, we’ve been practicing really well,” Mack said. “(In league) every team is capable of beating every other team. We talk a lot about that and that if we can raise our game just a little bit, we can win some big games.”

The parity that Mack believes exists in the

The season’s strong start has been crucial not just for the Mustangs’ confidence, but for finding out the particular style of play that this Manitou team will utilize to be successful.

“We shifted back to a slightly different formation,” Mack said. “We’re back to seeking shutouts. We’re starting from the back and getting sound with the back line and goalkeeper, and then take our chances as we move forward.”

The Mustangs have six regular season games remaining, and three will be played at home.

Pinehurst course provides tough state challenge for Clifford

By Daniel Mohrmann

The Manitou Springs volleyball team continues to fight valiantly in key matches, but it doesn’t always end up on the winning side.

The Mustangs dropped a five-set match 18-25, 25-23, 16-25, 25-13, 17-15 to Vanguard on Oct. 4. A 2-1 set lead couldn’t hold up as the Coursers battled back to take a crucial Tri-Peaks League match.

The Mustangs (9-7 overall, 3-3 Tri-Peaks) did come away with a 3-0 win at Salida on Sept. 30. Grace Allen put her offensive talents on display, leading the Mustangs with 15 kills in the match. Teryn Thime and Ayla Flett each added six in the effort. Norah Jorstad led the team with 11 digs.

The Mustangs head to La Junta on Thursday, Oct. 6, and will host James Irwin on Monday, Oct. 10.

By Daniel Mohrmann

Jack Clifford learned one major lesson in his first try at a state golf tournament.

“Putting is hard,” he said.

Putting at Pinehurst Country Club turned out to be a tough ask. It played a big role in the junior shooting a 46-over-par 186 Oct. 3 and 4 at the Class 3A boys golf state tournament.

Clifford said that his ball striking was fine and that he was hitting his irons pure and straight. But the difference in playing in a state tournament and winning a state tournament comes with what a player can do on or around the greens.

I’m super motivated after today.

He was the only Manitou golfer to qualify, meaning he could contend only for the individual championship and not a team title. The low player in the field was Montezuma-Cortez’s Thayer Plewe, who shot a 64 on Tuesday to finish the tourna ment at 6-under.

— Jack Clifford

“You have to have a good short game to have a good round,” he said.

But he didn’t walk away from his effort discouraged. If anything, he’s motivated to tighten up his skills in that area and do the work necessary not just to get back to state, but to put together two solid rounds.

“I’m super motivated after today on wanting to get better,” Clifford said. “I want to climb up that leaderboard.”

Mustangs run out of gas during Homecoming game

By Daniel Mohrmann

For almost three quarters, the Manitou Springs football team went toe-to-toe with the toughest opponent it has seen all year. But in the end, the Mustangs simply ran out of gas to lose their Homecoming game to Woodland Park 35-0 on Sept. 30.

“We faced a really good team,” coach Stu Jeck said. “I think Woodland Park is going to make a run this year.”

It was also the league opener for the Mustangs (3-2 overall, 0-1 Tri-Peaks), which can put a dent in playoff hopes, but the key is to learn from the outcome and get better before the Friday, Oct. 7, game against Florence.

Manitou didn’t have a lot of success in the trenches, racking up only 13 rushing yards through the course of the game. That left quarter back Nate Gentzel to try to generate some offense through the air.

He completed 14 of 33 passes for 153 yards, but was picked off twice. Evan Scherr caught eight passes for 106 yards.

Looking at the positives, the Mustangs bent but didn’t break for most of the game. They held the Panthers scoreless for the first half and didn’t give up any big scoring plays through the entire game.

I was very pleased for two and a half quarters.

— Stu Jeck

“I was very pleased for two and a half quarters that we kept a talented offense to zero points,” Jeck said. “We just have to learn how to go for four quarters.”

They’ll have to learn quickly as the Florence

Huskies roll into town with a 4-1 record, fresh off a league win over Lamar. Part of the game plan can be determined by simply looking at stats from previous games. Scherr is a playmaker and getting the ball in his hands is essential to the offense.

Cross-country teams turn in another strong showing

By Daniel Mohrmann

The Manitou Springs boys cross-country team continues to generate solid performances, and the general feeling is that the Mustangs haven’t peaked yet.

As a team, the boys finished third out of 12 teams at the Vanguard Courser Lightning Invite on Sept. 30. They were edged out by Montrose and Durango and have maintained their streak of not losing to another Class 3A or 2A team.

To pace that result, Cody Kelley finished in 16 minutes, 1.38 seconds to take third overall in the race. Cody Wyman was right behind Kelley to finish fourth with 16:22.28.

“We’re pretty close to the boys putting together a finished product,” coach Andy Sherwood said. “We haven’t had our fastest race yet as a team, but we’ll get there.”

Sherwood also like what he saw from the girls. Gaia Drotar finished 23:38.35, which is a solid time for her this season. Ellen Lowe was less than

a minute behind her and is doing her part to show that the girls team is progressing the way Sherwood has been hoping since the season started.

The Mustangs next head to the Tri-Peaks League meet at Monument Valley Park on Friday, Oct. 7. This will be a good chance for the overall program to take a major step forward and accomplish something it hasn’t done before, at least to Sherwood’s knowledge.

“As far as I can tell, neither the boys or girls have ever won a Tri-Peaks title,” Sherwood said. “The boys will be really close. It’s going to come down to four teams in (us), CSCS, St. Mary’s and Salida. I never count Salida out and think they’ll be our toughest competition.”

A Tri-Peaks banner would be nice, but it’s not something that Sherwood believes is essential for the team’s overall goals for this year. He has an eye on regionals and state as the races where he really wants the Mustangs to shine.

The Mustangs will try to pull more production from Tyler Maloney and Logan Moore since they’ve shown success in the team’s three wins.

Friday’s game against Florence is set for a 7 p.m. kickoff at Richardson Field.

Happy Cats Haven – Pet of the Week

Hello, I’m Chrissy, a beautiful little dilute tortie lady with gentle yellow eyes. was brought to Happy Cats when I was found trying to survive outside with my kittens. We’ve all decided that indoor life is the best life, and I’m ready to find a furever home! I’m an affectionate gal and will give you a nudge when I want to be petted. I’ll do best in a home without dogs; they really scare me, but a gentle introduction to another friendly feline should be OK! I’m about a year and a half old and you can adopt me for $80, which includes my spay, vaccinations, microchip, food and litter starter kit, and a free well-kitty checkup.

Humane Society – Pet of the Week

Hi! I’m Rocky, a 1-year-old tricolor Pit Bull mix looking for a new family to love. have a lot of energy, so I’m looking for an active home that can give me daily exercise, toys and mental stimulation. I get very excited when I see other dogs and can be a little on the pushy side because of my size, even if I just want to play. I have previously lived with cats and children. My adoption is $250, and I come with a voucher for a veterinary exam, vaccinations, 30 days of pet health insurance and a microchip, and I am already neutered. Just
