A post shared by Big Schlim Food Reviews (@big_schlims_tastetest) (KRDO) - There's debate in one monument community over a homeowner's association vote to rid an entire colony of prairie dogs After pushback from some community members Neighbors dealing withe the massive colony of rodents Residents along Leggins Way in the Monument community of Woodmoor tell KRDO13 that the prairie dogs have been an issue dating back over two decades and that the HOA for the Woodmoor used to take care of the colony every few years residents say its been quite some time since that last happened and it led to neighbors asking the board to act swiftly The board initially said it would hire a contractor to use aluminum phosphate a very lethal poison which to some is a slow and brutal death After some pushback from residents in Monument who caught wind of the plan the board has decided to use carbon monoxide instead While some Monument residents argue that nature should take its course others who live in the neighborhood say enough is enough  it's come to a point where  i discourage anybody from walking back there." explained Bob Harvey who lives with his property lining the large open space in the neighborhood where the prairia dogs burrow Harvey has watched prairie dog problem slowly take over "We have a construction fence  and it holds out most of the dust and dirt so they burrow right under it and come right into our backyard." said Harvey who added that one of his neighbors had their dogs lip bitten by one of the rodents "They'll chew through anything." Harvey opined adding that wiring for pet dog collars underground have even fallen victim to the jaws of the prairie dogs So what's the issue with prairie dogs? Outside of meddling with landscaping and being nuisances to properties, the small rodents run the risk of carrying many diseases, including the plague a disease that infected a man in Pueblo earlier this summer The Colorado Department of Agriculture has an entire web page dedicated to information on controlling prairie dog populations While Harvey and other neighbors KRDO13 talked to on Thursday said they were more than fine with the extermination happening whether it was with the aluminum phosphate poison other's who live in Monument who caught wind of the plan via social media "I still think nature should take its course  and human interference has never been a really great  solution." said Laura McGraw who lives about 15 minutes from the Woodmoor community "I just think that  any sort of chemical  is not the right answer." she stated would like to see the rodents be relocated to a sanctuary area in Pueblo which harbors other species that need prairie dogs in their ecosystem "Why can't we give them that opportunity to have two species thrive?" that relocation costs would run the association $120,000 dollars While residents like Harvey will acknowledge the place the rodents have in the ecosystem he says the problems that they bring to the environment Tyler is a reporter for KRDO.

It would also allow them to more easily recycle indoor wastewater that comes from Denver Basin wells and now drains into the sewer.  “It's delivered and conveyed over at the wastewater treatment facility where it's cleansed and then it's discharged into Monument Creek,” Shaffer said “So now I have a molecule of Denver Basin groundwater that came out of the ground and would've never wound up in the stream but now (with the Loop system)  it's in the stream and we're able to use that molecule of water to extinction.” That means they can keep recycling the water in the system until it’s gone Shaffer said other water providers could benefit from being part of the Loop project their existing water supplies that are currently running down the stream and probably over to Kansas farmers,” he said Lathen said building the Loop project would be both complicated and expensive “To put water transmission lines in the ground “And so you're talking about real money and serious design (and) construction costs in order to build water systems that ultimately end up in people's homes.” She said people don’t have to be worried that water will suddenly stop flowing from their faucets but it's important to get ahead of the curve and explore these types of projects now before it becomes a critical issue as the region continues to grow All of those issues don't matter if there's not water So we have to get the water equation finished The participating utility companies and a developer paid for a study currently underway to develop water quality They’ve also asked El Paso County to designate a portion of its American Rescue Plan Act funds to help fund the estimated $134 million Loop infrastructure project.  What is the Denver Basin and why should you care?

2021 Club, News Colorado Springs saw 4 club teams in the area consolidate into a large new club team and Woodmoor Waves (WOOD) have now merged into a team called Colorado Springs Area Swimming (COSA) COSA currently has approximately 500 swimmers on its roster making it one of the largest clubs in Colorado COSA CEO and investor Cheryl Bisque describes the merger as a natural move saying “COSA Swimming is the result of a common vision and efforts by the Head Coaches of our four merging teams.” She goes on to add that with COSA’s size they will be able to provide “top-notch instruction for all levels of swimmers from new bubble blowers to world champions.” One of the former clubs that now make up COSA but was having issues procuring enough pool space for practices the 4 clubs worked closely together in order to share pool space and time They also came together to host quad meets in order to adhere to the COVID protocols issued by the state and local governments With the teams working together to share pool time the beginnings of the merger were beginning to take place At beginning of June, COSA issued a press release announcing the official merger of the 4 teams It began with COSA sending a swimmer to Wave I of the Olympic Trials Caroline Bricker competed in the women’s 100 breast in Omaha Bricker went on to win women’s individual high point at the Austin Sectionals meet in July then traveled to Irvine for the Western Speedo Summer Championships COSA finished 2nd at the Colorado 13 & over state meet this summer and posted a top 20 finish at Western Senior Zones In addition to the swim team’s successful first few months They’re currently in the process of building a new aquatics facility in Colorado Springs and has put money down on the 2012 Olympic Trials warmup/warm down pool The plan currently is to use the 2012 Trials pool as an 8-lane 50m pool that can also be configured into a 20-lane 25 yard pool COSA also intends to have a variety of support

more pools in our region to grow the sport Some minor summer league teams joining some better teams as CSST and Cheyenne Mountain Aquatics is good and maybe they will be more competitive But team size does NOT make a Competitive team I have been involved with Club Swimming for over 20 years and have raised 6 swimmers So far 5 have made it to the Collegiate level I have seen the effects of good and bad coaching and can say that after this long Pike’s Peak Athletics would be the Number 1 choice for “Competitive” Swimming in the Colorado Springs area Sounds like you are ‘recruiting’ for PPA You have an obvious bias and agenda… Know you are from Wisconsin when you scan through the headlines and read this as “new Colorado Springs supper club”… and want to read more Consolidation is inevitable and is necessary to save the sport given the financial uncertainty of smaller clubs Is it 8 lane or 10 lane pool as the competition pool was a 10 lane pool The competition pool was repurposed into a 10-lane It’s surprising to me that 9 years later the 2012 pool would still even be available I’m curious as to why the 2012 warmup pool wasn’t the 2016 warmup pool The answers you seek lie within the failed complex in papillon Did usa swimming ever announced a public bid for this pool Many usa swimming programs would have liked the opportunity to bid on it if it was out there. I don’t know the exact background on it but I believe another club in Nebraska bought it and at that point it belonged to that club or their creditors – not USA Swimming anymore Legitimate question on my part that I don’t have an opinion on–are these “super clubs” good for USA Swimming Should the LSC be doing more to provide financial support to start-ups and smaller clubs as to not discourage the entry of new teams they’re really not good for anything except boosting their Club Excellence rankings Dude just let us have our team we decided it was a good idea Not even sure why we even have individual teams at this point Let’s just all compete as 1 team so we can all say we’re winners Pikes Peak is currently open for drop in lap swim They just did annual maintenance and the pool is crystal clear More from Spencer PenlandSee All Subscribe to our newsletter and receive our latest updates In December we let you know that Nash & Smash Though construction hasn’t started yet the restaurant will be coming soon to 10121 Colesville Rd in the Woodmoor Shopping center The will be taking over the space that was most recently home to Subway according to commercial real estate company Rappaport: “Nash & Smash keeps the menu simple: Nashville-style fried chicken sandwiches and smash-burgers along with creative sides and drinks making Nash & Smash a true farm-to-table dining experience.” El Paso County Department of Public Works continues safety and drainage improvements along the southern portion of Monument Hill Road This Phase I work includes construction of a free right turn lane from Monument Hill Road onto Woodmoor Drive improvements to drainage along Crystal Creek & Monument Hill Road Due to continued weather delays and unforeseen site conditions the road will remain closed from the intersection of Woodmoor Drive to the south entrance of the Monument Hill Church into June Woodmoor Drive and Deer Creek Road continue to serve as the detour route for access to the northern portion of Monument Hill Road and Palmer Ridge High School The project schedule remains dependent on weather and resources Phase II will require closure of Monument Hill Road from the south entrance of Monument Hill Church to the south entrance of Palmer Ridge High School eliminating access from Monument Hill Road to Deer Creek Road Monument Hill Church will be accessible at its south entrance on Monument Hill Road Transition from Phase I to Phase II is expected to occur in June An update to this release and Phase II detour map will be provided once a transition date is known Furrow Road and County Line Road will serve as the detour Drivers who need to use the detour route should plan for added travel time Please reduce speeds and watch for workers El Paso County wishes to thank drivers in advance for their cooperation Full road closure will accelerate the safe and efficient completion of this project Funding for this project is provided through PPRTA Montgomery County Police say that the reports of gunshots at the Woodmoor Shopping Center Tuesday afternoon that triggered a lockdown at Montgomery Blair High School turned out to be fireworks Students were asked to shelter in place until 1:40 p.m when it was determined that the incident was caused by fireworks “Blazer Families: A letter is on the way to you soon regarding today’s emergency,” Blair principal Renay Johnson said on Twitter “Students & staff are safe on campus the emergency was fireworks in the business community not gunfire I want to thank @mcpnews for their quick guidance & response to our school today “We will have dismissal as scheduled today,” Johnson continued “Lockdowns can be unsettling for students and staff our counselors and administrators are available for support.” Blazer Families: A letter is on the way to you soon regarding today’s emergency.

below it’s an illusion that continues inside the house Woodmoor is owned by Andrew and Leena Cook who’ve lived there for the past nine years Andrew works as a map archivist and Leena is a translator The pair both used to work at the British Library and commuted from Newport to London every week for six years they gave up their jobs in London and both now enjoy freelance careers When you sit at the table in their sunroom with its bank of windows gazing across the river to Dundee you can picture what a haven the house must have felt like after a week in London The main house is thought to have been built around 1850 but the date of the timber-clad sunroom extension is unknown Andrew pulls a local history book off a shelf and flicks to a picture of the ferry that used to take Fifers to Dundee before the Tay Road Bridge was built “You can see the house in the background and the extension was there then A couple of steps drop down from road level and the house is accessed from a path through the garden The front door takes you into the upper level with the living room ahead and the sunroom and a study to the left All enjoy outstanding views and there’s a wood burner in the living room to keep cosy through the winter Leena and Andrew knocked through a boarded-up doorway from the kitchen to the living room letting them enjoy Tay views while they make dinner Glazed doors off the living room leads out to a wrought iron balcony with room for a couple of chairs The main upstairs bedroom is circular in shape with curved doors There’s a second bedroom upstairs and on the lower level what would be a master bedroom were it not in service as Andrew’s map archive There’s a sheltered upper level with a tranquil seating area There’s a gate to an off street parking area and next to that is a ruined cottage that could A steep flight of stone stairs winds its way down towards the foreshore where there’s a semi-circular grassy area with stone wall boundaries “It takes a bit of effort to get down here,” Leena admits “but you’re right beside the water and it’s really private It’s a lovely place to have a barbecue and a glass of wine.” From there a low gate drops down onto the foreshore itself Few houses have this much beauty and character Woodmoor, Newport-on-Tay is on sale with Galbraith for o/o £425,000
