    From: Leo Cruz To: Hahn, Kara L. - CPD City Planner Principal Subject: [EXTERNAL] 900 E. 1st Avenue Date: Friday, July 17, 2020 5:10:28 PM Good afternoon Kara, Is the Carmen Court Designation review still open for public input? If so, I would like to state my support for the landmark consideration as stated in the application. In particular, I strongly concur with the assessments of criteria 6, 7 and 3 as detailed in the application. Please let me know if there is a process or format I need to follow to formalize my expression of support. Thank you! Leo Cruz 48 S. Pearl Street 720-219-3091 Karen Roehl, 90 Emerson Street, Carmen Court, Denver CO I was born in Montreal, Canada where I spent my childhood. In 1967 when I was 12, my family immigrated to Denver. I married and had 2 children by the time I was 24. The marriage didn’t work out, and I became a single parent. Working full time as a secretary while taking evening classes in graphic design made me a very busy mother! Eventually, I was able to shift careers and become a graphic designer. I had a great career for over 25 years. After my daughters went off to college, I began to pursue fine art painting. At age 50, I decided to go back to school to earn my BFA, my first higher ed de- gree. Graduating in 2007, I immediately found representation for my work and have made a living as an artist ever since. I sell my work through gallery representation and various shows.

VALUES IN TRANSITION: THE CHIRICAHUA APACHE FROM 1886-1914 John W Ragsdale, Jr.* Abstract Law confirms but seldom determines the course of a society. Values and beliefs, instead, are the true polestars, incrementally implemented by the laws, customs, and policies. The Chiricahua Apache, a tribal society of hunters, gatherers, and raiders in the mountains and deserts of the Southwest, were squeezed between the growing populations and economies of the United States and Mexico. Raiding brought response, reprisal, and ultimately confinement at the loathsome San Carlos Reservation. Though most Chiricahua submitted to the beginnings of assimilation, a number of the hardiest and least malleable did not. Periodic breakouts, wild raids through New Mexico and Arizona, and a labyrinthian, nearly impenetrable sanctuary in the Sierra Madre led the United States to an extraordinary and unprincipled overreaction.

  • 236 Pinaleño Mountains in the Twentieth Century Atalanta Hoyt
    Pinaleño Mountains in the Twentieth Century Atalanta Hoyt Throughout the twentieth century, a few major events dominated the history of the Forest Service. First, the founding of the National Forest Service in 1905 replaced the Bureau of Forestry and led to the creation of modern National Forests. The new service was created under the jurisdiction of the Department of Agriculture with the purpose of securing a long term supply of timber for the American people.1 Second, the great depression of the 1930s, Franklin Roosevelt’s creation of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the expansion of the Forest Service changed the shape of National Forests.2 This time period featured a major transition from timber management to hands on putting resources into the forest. The Forest Service and CCC planted trees, carved trails, built roads, and conducted research; actively molding forests and applying the latest forestry techniques instead of letting the forest take its course.3 A third period of great change came in the 1970s during the environmental era.4 The emphasis changed from conceptualizing the forests as resources to be converted into marketable goods to seeing them as wilderness in need of preservation. While conservation has always been an important part of the Forest Service - advocated by both those who saw an intrinsic value in wilderness and by those who used the wilderness for recreational purposes - increased urbanization highlighted the uniqueness of forests. Efforts to catalog and protect the environments of forests became a main priority while ecologists and conservationists gained status.5 These three main shifts defined the Forest Service in the twentieth century.
