Watch for Children Going Back to School

A message from Mayor Dennis Coombs


As summer draws to a close and the new school year begins
I want to remind everyone to be on the lookout for children
walking and riding to school. Were fortunate in Longmont
that so many homes are within walking distance of our great
schools, but it also means that quiet neighborhood streets
near schools again become beehives of activity. Drivers
should watch out for children walking and bicycling to
school and be aware that school zone signs will be flashing
with lower speed limits before and after school.
Parents should be patient when dropping off and picking up
their kids at school. Even though you might be anxious to get
to work or in a hurry to get your children to soccer practice,
lets not risk our childrens safety to save 30 seconds.
While drivers have a responsibility to slow down, pedestrians
also must follow the rules of the road, especially at crosswalks.
Thanks to City of Longmont Traffic Engineer Bob Ball for
providing these reminders:

Finally, I would like to encourage parents who always drive


their children to school to sometimes let them walk or ride
their bikes, especially on beautiful Colorado days. Your
children will probably be more alert when they get to school,
and you may find that walking or biking with them to school
is a lot more fun for both you and your kids. Welcome back
to school, and lets all make this a safe and happy school year
for everyone.

Its as easy to apply!


Visit the Citys website at LongmontColorado.gov, review
Current Vacancies to see which boards have openings,
and apply online. Questions? Call the City Clerks Office
at 303-651-8649.

safe distance between them and approaching traffic.
Drivers must yield to a pedestrian in the crosswalk but not
necessarily on the sidewalk waiting to cross.

pedestrian at a marked crosswalk.
Along multiple-lane streets, such as Main Street in
downtown, pedestrians should watch for vehicles in the far
lane of traffic, even if traffic in the near lane has stopped.
Pedestrians crossing a street should make eye contact with
approaching drivers. If drivers dont make eye contact with
you, they may not know youre there.

in the deliberation of topics of importance to the city,

Snow is beautiful, but when it covers sidewalks, it can be a serious


safety hazard. Thats why the City requires property owners and
tenants to clear their sidewalks of snow and ice within 24 hours
after snow has stopped falling. Residents with north facing
sidewalks need to be especially vigilant as those walks will never
experience enough sunlight to melt snow or ice.

In case of snow

Life doesnt stop because it snows. We understand how important


it is to keep roads plowed so that residents can get to work or
school or the grocery store. Its also important to keep roads
passable for deliveries, mail and emergency services.
The City of Longmont develops an annual Snow and Ice
Control Plan to guide operations. The plan outlines strategies
to maintain a safe flow of traffic throughout the city and ensure
that each residential area is in close proximity to a plowed
street. Emphasis is also placed on ensuring that emergency
services can be provided throughout the city.

Snow Plan Objectives

Where We Plow

Designated snow routes can be seen online at


LongmontColorado.gov/snow. If you have to travel during or
after a storm, be snow savvy and plan your trip using snow
routes as much as possible for the best conditions. You can
also view road conditions at points around town through our
real-time Street Snow Cams, found on the website.
Tips to Be Snow Savvy
Be prepared before the first snowflake hits the pavement.
Travel only when absolutely necessary, and slow down if
you do.
Give snow plow trucks plenty of room and clear signals.
Shovel sidewalks within 24 hours of a storms end.
Keep storm drains and curbs clear for melting snow.
Remember our waterways when using deicer products.
Ensure waterlines are ready for freezing temperatures.
For more information, call 303-774-4446 or visit
LongmontColorado.gov/snow.

City of Longmont code enforcement officers respond to


complaints and proactively inspect sidewalks. If they find
snow- or ice-covered sidewalks they will issue a Notice of
Violation. Failure to clear the sidewalks after a reasonable
time will result in further legal action, and repeat offenders
may be issued a summons to appear in Municipal Court.
For more information about the regulations, visit
www.LongmontColorado.gov or call Code Enforcement at
303-651-8695. You also can call that number to report snow
and ice violations.

Utility Payment Assistance

With the costs of utility services rising, some in


our community need help to make ends meet. The
City of Longmont has posted a list of 24 agencies
that offer utility payment assistance at www.bit.ly/
longmontutilityassistance. Applicants must meet
stringent qualifications, and some programs are
designed for vulnerable populations such as those 55 or
older, lupus and MS patients, and veterans.
Longmonts Utility Billing Division also offers payment
programs for residents who are behind in their payments.
If you are unable to pay by the date noted on your bill and
you wish to make a payment arrangement, call Utility Billing
Customer Service at 303-651-8664 between 8 am and 5 pm
Monday through Friday. Failure to pay your bill may result in
your service being disconnected.

1. Provide commuter access through the city and to major


commercial/industrial zones via the plowing and sanding
of arterial roadways.
2. Provide access to emergency services, by plowing and
sanding roadways adjacent to major medical facilities.
3. Provide neighborhood access to plowed roadways and bus
routes during a snow event; this generally involves plowing
and sanding collector streets.
4. Ensure safe vehicle access to schools by including those
areas on the snow routes.
5. Promote returning the transportation system to a normal
state by removing snow and ice including after storms have
ended if necessary.

If you will be away from home during snow season, or if


youre physically unable to shovel, arrange to have a friend or
neighbor shovel your walk for you. You also can contact the
Snow Chasers program at 303-651-8411 for assistance for senior
citizens and the disabled; however, assistance is limited based
on availability of volunteers. If you would like to volunteer or
be paired, please call Kari at 303-651-8495.

Keeper of the Mountain

As a reporter for Reuters, Elizabeth Hawley has lived


alone in Kathmandu since 1960 and has interviewed
thousands of returning mountaineers. Now in her 90s,
Ms. Hawley is the worlds foremost authority on Himalayan
mountaineering and the final arbiter of disputed claims.
This sharp, witty woman with an encyclopedic memory has
made some of the worlds most formidable mountaineers
quake with her post-expedition interrogations, which they
have fondly dubbed The Second Summit. (USA/Nepal,
Documentary Short, 2013, 25 min. Director: Allison Otto)

Hot Tomatoes Orchestra

Nov 6, Fri, 2-3pm


483000.06
This group is a fabulous nine
piece band that specializes
in swing, dance music, and
big band jazz. Their unique

the great swing and jazz
bands of the thirties and
forties. They excel at recreating the wonderful music of Benny Goodman, Artie
Shaw, Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Duke Ellington, Count
Basie and others. Doors open at 1:30 for seating.

High and Hallowed: Everest 1963

In May of 1963, a team of brave Americans assembled


on Mt. Everest in an effort to be the first from the U.S. to
stand atop the worlds highest mountain. Some climbed
the traditional south route while others attempted the
daunting, and previously unclimbed, West Ridge, now
considered one of the most daring attempts in history. This
harrowing film also incorporates a modern-day attempt
on the West Ridge in 2012 in hideous conditions. (USA/
Nepal, Feature Documentary, 2013, 48 min. Directors:
David Morton and Jake Norton; Jim Aikman, co-director)

ONGMONT Every Independence Day, the biggest


backyard party in town can
be found at Thompson Park.
Im all about the parades and
stuff, but this is way better, said
Shelley Kunselman, who hit the
park at 7 a.m. to grab a shady picnic spot. I see a bunch of people I
know, chat with them, and then
make the rounds again in about an
hour. And you cant beat the music.
Or the heat. Temperatures rose
through the 90s as the annual
Longmont Symphony Orchestra
concert and July 4 community picnic went on. Most families hugged
the shade of a tree or an awning;
two members of the Longmont
Chorale briefly passed out from
the warmth.
No rain this year, opening
singer Dan Wright told the crowd
with a chuckle. Remember last
year?
Without the showers that washed the park in 2010 and almost
canceled the event, patriotic decorations had free reign to take over
every available space and table.
Tri-color strawberries, with white

chocolate and blue sprinkles.


Cookies shaped like the continental United States. Even a small
white Old Glory Christmas tree,
decorated to the hilt with wood-

block flags, USA cutouts and an


Uncle Sam teddy bear, among other star-spangled touches.
Everyone likes it, said the
trees owner, Kathy Howell of

Erie. I am starting to reach saturation, but for now, I just keep


adding things.
Some keep adding people as
well. For Evelyn Josephsohn, this
came in the middle of her family
reunion, with 25 people descending on Longmont from as far away
as Montana.
This is quite a special Fourth of
July for us, she said, as the family
set up its picnic table, entered in
the afternoons contest as Red,
White and Balloons, a name
thought up by Josephsohns
granddaughter.
Its also the young ones, she
noted, who were responsible for
the familys picnic site: as close to
the cannon for the 1812 Overture
as possible. That same cannon
made a few picnickers jump during the national anthem, as a mischievous Kim Knake set it off in
time for The bombs bursting in
air ...
There seems to be a quick trigger around here, joked former
Mayor Roger Lange, a master of
ceremonies for the afternoon.

LONGMONT Colorado Senate President Brandon Shaffer announced Monday night via YouTube that he will run for the 4th
Congressional District in 2012.
The video shows Shaffer addressing a group of friends and family
during a backyard
party on the
Fourth of July.
A lot of you
know that we
have been considering a very important decision
in our family,
Shaffer said. Be- Shaffer
fore we announced our decision to the general public, we thought wed bring a
group of very close friends and
family and neighbors and people
who have been very supportive
over the years together to share
the decision that weve made with
you first.
Tomorrow (Tuesday), I am
going to announce that I am an official candidate for Congress.
The announcement was met
with cheers by the crowd and a
teasing admonition to Get back to
the food by Shaffer.
Shaffer, D-Longmont, had considered running in 2008 but
stepped aside for the candidacy of
Betsy Markey, who defeated incumbent Republican Marilyn Musgrave. After current U.S. Rep. Cory
Gardner, a Republican, defeated
Markey in her bid for re-election,
Shaffers name was discussed as a
possible challenger.
The 4th CD has been at the center of a re-districting battle by the
Legislature, with the exact lines to
be considered by a judge this fall.

DENVER One gay man videotaped for the project shares that
his extended family reacted to his
news of testing positive for HIV by
asking him to use a plastic plate,
cup and utensils at mealtime.
Another subject, a 14-year-old
boy infected with HIV at birth by
his mother, answers a question
about future dating. He thinks it
could work if she could just accept me for who I am rather than
what I have.

of privately listening to the testimonies of HIV-positive clients convinced them that a related video archive could be another resource in
fighting the HIV/AIDS pandemic,
which hit the United States 30
years ago this summer.
Patient confidentiality prevented
them from sharing their clients

But anyone who participates in
the project needs to be prepared
for the fact that clips of their interview could show up on NBC Nightly News, Miles said.
