heater to avoid pipes freezing should the overhead heater burn out again. All work and materials
was completed for less than the original quotes.

Parks Department Crews spent seventeen days removing snow and ice in January. There were a series of back to back storms that hardly allowed a complete cleaning before the next event. Daytime thawing and nighttime freezing along with high winds presented many challenges to keeping sidewalks and trails clear.

After a wonderful winter break camp, before and
after care (B&A) got back in the swing of things
January 9th! Both the Ranch House and
Community Center have had some really fun
themed weeks filled with games, crafts, and many
activities. The students did not have school on
January 21st. We offer a full day program most
days the students do not have school. Each full
day is a field trip. This field trip was to Skyzone!
This is a fun trampoline park type of facility.
Another exciting start to our year was
welcoming back a beloved youth programs staff.
Alayna has worked in our B&A programs as well
as summer camp. She is a fantastic part of the
team and we are happy to have her as our lead
counselor at the Ranch House B&A program.
This was a fun afternoon planned with
“Minute To Win It” competition styled
activities. This was the classic cookie
face game. Starting with the cookie on
your forehead, you then must bring the
cookie down to your mouth only using
your face muscles! No Hands!
Just a glimpse into
how much fun we
have in B&A!

Slow Down. Wires are Fast. You Don’t Have to Be.
Wires are a safe, efficient, and fast way to send money. However, wire fraud is a real threat. Financial criminals are using compromised email accounts, fake websites, and changing phone numbers as a way to misdirect valid payments into their hands.
Before sending a wire, we recommend you:
• Slow Down: Did you receive wiring instructions via email from an investment broker, attorney, title company, realtor, vendor or business partner? We recommend that all payment instructions be verified in person or over the phone using a phone number that is publically available. Do not use a number provided by the recipient through email unless you can verify it through a known number. • Slow Down: Review your wiring instructions. Does the name of the wire beneficiary make sense for your transaction? You’ve been working with XYZ Title Company in Colorado, but the wiring instructions list John Doe Title Company out of Texas as a beneficiary. • Slow Down: Did you receive wiring instructions, only to have them changed through a follow up email or phone call? Individuals and businesses do not change their banking relationships often. However, using email to change wiring instructions is a common tactic used by fraudsters.
There may be other reasons to question the validity of a wire. Are you:
• Paying for something prior to receiving the goods or services? • Returning funds to the recipient due to a prior “overpayment”? • Responding to an online employment advertisement which prompted this transaction? • Sending a wire to pay taxes or fees because you won a lottery or other prize?
If you have any concerns after reviewing this information, let your banker know.

Memo To: Ken-Caryl Ranch Metropolitan District Board of Directors
From: Sean Warren, Open Space Manager, KCRMA
CC: Chris Pacetti, Executive Director, KCRMA Melissa Daruna, District Manager, KCRMD Seth Murphy, President, Ken-Caryl Ranch Master Association Board of Directors Jim Antes, President, Ken-Caryl Ranch Historical Society Colin Crotty, Chair, Ken-Caryl Ranch Open Space Committee Date: 2/21/2019
Re: Review of bids for South Hogback Open Space surveys
As development closes in on rare plant habitat in the South Hogback Open Space (SHOS) and population growth accelerates along the Front Range leading to increased impacts to regional natural areas it has become imperative to develop a management plan for the SHOS that will insure protection of critical open space resources. The first step to developing this plan is know what you have on the site and a good way to do this is complete field surveys that are focused on various elements of the resource. To insure credibility and integrity, these surveys should be completed by professional scientists. Contract scientists have been used many times at Ken-Caryl Ranch Open Space (KCROS) with great success and staff and the Ken-Caryl Ranch Open Space Committee (OSC) recommend that the Ken-Caryl Ranch Metropolitan District Board do the same for the SHOS. A request for proposals to complete rare plant and animal (Bio) surveys and historic/archaeological (H/A) surveys of the South Hogback Open Space was sent by staff to three potential bidders, the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP), ERO Resources Corp (ERO) and Pinyon Environmental Inc. A summary of the bids received is provided in the table below. Pinyon Environmental decided not to bid.
Scope of Service Bid from
ERO Resources Corp.
Bid from Colorado Natural Heritage Program
A. Rare plant and animal survey of both Site A and Site B (see attached map)
$12,700.00 $6,934.00
B Rare plant, animal and Historic/Archaeological survey of both Site A and Site B
$18,300.00 NA
C Rare plant and animal survey of Site A $10,000.00 $4,623.00 D Rare plant, animal and Historic/Archaeological survey of Site A.
$14,800.00 NA
Note: if hired to complete the Bio and H/A surveys, ERO has offered to complete additional surveys at the following costs; Bat acoustic survey=$2,000, Owl survey=$1,500 and song bird point count survey=$3,500.
Discussion; Staff have worked with both CNHP and ERO on several projects over the past ten years. Both are highly knowledgeable of our open space, accommodating and easy to work with, generous with their time and have completed their projects on time and on budget. No matter which contractor is used I am confident that either one will provide an excellent work product. CNHP is a non-profit organization sponsored by the Warner College of Natural Resources at Colorado State University. Their mission is to advance the conservation of Colorado's native species and ecosystems through science, planning, and education for the benefit of current and future generations. CNHP has completed Bio surveys of trail corridors for the Columbine and Shaffer trail projects and the lower Cougar Trail complex (survey reports are available on the KCR community website). They also completed an area wide survey of Parcel A and were granted access to KCROS in 2011 when updating Jefferson County Open Space’s Survey of Critical Biological Resources. They have provided the most economical bid for the Bio surveys and are already very familiar with the boundaries of the Physaria x1 habitat. The downside with CNHP is that they are unable to provide an H/A survey. There are other options for completing this task which will be covered below. Another important factor to consider with CNHP is that they have strong conservation values and demonstrated a bias for a “leave it be” approach to natural area management. ERO is a private, ecological consulting firm that has been around the Denver area for over thirty years. Their scientists’ proven technical expertise, regulatory knowledge, and problem-solving skills enable them to provide cost-effective and creative solutions for their clients’ environmental challenges. They have completed biological and historical/archaeological surveys of the Docmann Trail project, helped create Ken-Caryl Ranch Open Space’s Prairie Dog Conservation policy and have provided environmental assessments and associated permit management on several drainageway improvement projects in KCROS. ERO’s bias towards natural area management might best be described as “wise use” and their recommendations towards trail development are likely to be less stringent than those by CNHP. Their bid is affordable, and they can provide an H/A survey and have provided some interesting options for surveying other biological elements. Bid Options; ERO is willing to do the H/A survey as a standalone project. They will also do the same for other surveys. See table below showing modified bids from ERO for various types of surveys as standalone projects;
Staff Preferences; Staff would prefer to see surveys completed for the entire SHOS parcel which includes both sites A and B. Staff also believe that completing the bat and owl surveys would provide valuable information on important biological elements that have not been looked at closely in other surveys completed at KCROS. By hiring CNHP to complete the Bio surveys and hiring ERO to complete the H/A survey the project could be completed under budget for $12,534. If the bat and owl surveys were added to the project the total cost across both sites would be $19,534. Even though this is over the project budget of $15,000 staff encourages the MD Board to look for financial help from other open space stakeholders such as the Ken-Caryl Ranch Master Association, Jefferson County Open Space or the Ken-Caryl Ranch Historical Society to make up his shortfall. Finally, staff respectfully requests that the Board take action on this issue at their February 26, 2019 business meeting so that if a decision is made to hire a contractor to complete the surveys, the selection can be made at this meeting in time to schedule the field work which should begin in April 2019.
