UPDATE ON
TRANSPORTATION PLAN
In 2017, staff, in collaboration with a Citizens Working
Group (CWG), comprised of residents appointed by the
City Council, initiated work to develop a
Transportation Master Plan for Greenwood
Village. The Transportation Master Plan will
provide a roadmap for a transportation system to
meet the needs of the community.
Over the course of two years, community input
has been a driving force in this process with
resident, business, and visitor input and ideas
about the Plan’s development. Whether you live,
work, or travel in Greenwood Village,
transportation plays a vital role in your life. Our
efforts during the planning process to bring
together community input and technical criteria
to develop a plan was focused on collaboration,
transparency, and inclusivity.
At a previous City Council meeting, staff presented
recommendations for projects identified by the CWG to be
considered in the Village’s Transportation Master Plan.
After discussion, I directed staff to reconvene the CWG to
prioritize the list of projects they created. I would envision
this prioritized list would be presented to the City Council
for future review and consideration.
Watch for more information and updates on the
Transportation Master Plan process in the months ahead.

LIGHTNING SYSTEM
AT VILLAGE GREENS
PARK UPGRADED
INCREASED COVERAGE
IMPLEMENTED
During the summer storm season,
Village park users and visitors may be
exposed to potential dangers of a
lightning storm while outside. In an
effort to provide a safer environment
for users of Village Greens Park, Curtis
Park, Westlands Park, Silo Park, and
Tommy Davis Park, the Village has
installed lightning prediction and
warning systems to alert park users of
the potential for lightning before it
strikes.
The lightning prediction system at
Village Greens Park was recently
updated. The upgrades include
installation of a new remote site that
allows for increased coverage to
include the mountain bike and disc
golf courses, and the path system
surrounding both courses. In addition,
the technology has been upgraded to
allow anyone to see the status of the
Village Greens park site, and view
radar imagery of the area by
accessing the website address:
greenwoodvillage.thormobile3.net.
The lightning systems in designated
Village parks are prediction systems
not detection system. These systems
measure the shift of the positive and
negative ions in the atmosphere and in
the ground that can create an energy
flow that may result in a lightning
strike once a conductive cloud to
ground path is available. The lightning
prediction and warning system senses
and evaluates these shifts and changes
in the electrostatic field that precede
the occurrence of an actual lightning
strike and activates an audible, as well
as, visual warning alerting of the
dangerous conditions. The systems are
set to monitor a 2.5 mile radius from
its location.
When the conditions are ripe for
lightning at the parks or within the
2.5 mile radius, a continuous audible
horn is activated for a period of 15
seconds, alerting users of the potential
for lightning and activating yellow
strobes on the roofs of the structures
located within the parks. These strobes
will stay activated throughout the
period of potential lightning activity
and will shut off only after an all clear
signal consisting of three five second
audible horn blasts. The systems are
operational between the hours of
7 a.m. and 9 p.m., seven days a week,
through the spring and summer
months.

TRAIL ETIQUETTE
FOR PEDESTRIANS,
EQUESTRIANS
AND BICYCLISTS
Just like dining in a fine restaurant,
there is proper etiquette when using
area trails. Though the look of
multiuse trail signs may differ, the
right-of-way order is universal:
bicyclists yield to everyone; pedestrians
yield to equestrians; equestrians always
have the right-of-way and do not yield
to bicyclists or pedestrians.
Pedestrians — of course it’s more fun
to walk side-by-side to talk with your
walking buddies than to walk single
file but please be aware that taking up
the whole trail makes it difficult for
bicyclists and equestrians to pass safely.
Stay to the right and close to your
walking partner.
Equestrians — It is safest to ride
single file but as with pedestrians,
many prefer to ride side-by-side to talk
with friends. Be aware that two horses
riding take up a lot of trail space,
making it difficult for others to pass
safely. Trails in the Village are
multiuse, so you will encounter
bicyclists and pedestrians; it is the
rider’s responsibility to ensure that
their horse in under control. Also keep
in mind that many people are not
familiar with horses and do not
understand that objects such as bikes
and runners coming up behind them
can scare your horse. Be courteous and
notify pedestrians when passing.
Horses should be held to a walk or trot
on the High Line Canal Trail for the
safety of all users.
Bicyclists — bicyclists yield to both
pedestrians and equestrians. Be
courteous to other users and keep right
when possible. Verbally alert others
when you are approaching to pass; call
out “on your left” or “on your right” as
pedestrians and equestrians may not
hear you approaching. The speed limit
on Village trails is a maximum of 15
MPH, depending on conditions.
Some Notes About Horses — Have
you ever noticed a horse jump? Here’s
why: horses are easily scared. In nature,
horses are prey. Horses’ eyes are
situated on the sides of their heads
which causes objects to appear to jump
from one side of their vision to the
other. This can trigger the horse’s
instinct to flee. Pedestrians be aware
that if you get too close to a horse
(closer than the horse’s leg length) you
are in danger of getting kicked,
especially if you surprise the horse.
When approaching or passing a horse,
keep your dog on a tight leash and on
the side away from the horse. Dogs
unfamiliar with horses may be fearful
or try to jump at the horse. Don’t
forget to use your voice by stating “on
your left” instead of using your bell,
which may scare a horse.
For more information, please call
Parks, Trails, and Recreation at
303-486-5773. To report unsafe user
behavior on Village trails, please call

THE VILLAGE
READ FOR 2019
Celebrating its third year, the
Greenwood Village Cultural Arts
Program has once again partnered
with Arapahoe Libraries to
present the “Village Read.” The
idea encourages adults of all
ages to read one book and
participate in thoughtprovoking
discussions and
activities derived from the chosen
book. The goals of the program are to encourage
leisure reading, create community conversations and bring
the community together through literature.
This year the group has chosen the book Rush by Colorado
author Jayme Mansfield. In Rush, Mary, a single mom, tries
to strike her claim in the
Oklahoma Land Rush of
1893. In competition with
desperate homesteaders,
ruthless land seekers and a
sheriff determined to see her
fail, Mary thrusts her flag in
the dirt to claim 160 acres
of her own. But with that
claim, she risks more than
she ever could imagine.
Mary is faced with a past
riddled with loss, hardship
and reminders that a woman
isn’t capable of surviving on
her own. Will Mary’s
stubborn and independent
Jayme Mansfield
spirit keep her mired in the past? Or will she find forgiveness
and love in the wild plains of the Midwest?
ARTS SCHOLARSHIPS
The Greenwood Village Arts and Humanities Council has chosen the recipients of this year’s college scholarships. Each student
will receive $3,000 toward their education. In addition, each student’s high school receives $500 to go toward their art program.
This year’s recipients are Julia Dizghinjili from Cherry Creek High School and Zoé Fonck from Denver School of the Arts.
Julia Dizghinjili was born in Saint Petersburg,
Russia. She showed interest in visual arts at around
10 years
old, but
five years
later, only
after
taking an
art class in
her high
school,
did she
start to
study and
make art systematically. Julia’s work was shown in
the Maryland Institute College of Art, where she
participated in a Summer Pre-College Program; in
Denver Museum of Contemporary Art; and in
multiple exhibitions in Cherry Creek High School.
Julia graduated from CCHS in May 2019, and is
planning to go to college to study Art and Software
Engineering.
Zoé Fonck recently graduated from Denver School of the Arts as a
senior theatre major. Some of her favorite roles she’s played while at
DSA include Henrietta
Leavitt in Silent Sky, Tilly in
Melancholy Play and Corryn
in Gidion’s Knot. She has
spent the last four years
receiving supplemental
training from the DCPA,
expanding her knowledge of
both classical and
contemporary theatre. She
has also spent the last few
summers attending national
thespian conferences, working at the DCPA’s children’s summer camps,
and attending Emerson’s Pre-College Acting Program. Besides theatre,
she has a love of academics, taking a variety of AP, dual enrollment, and
honors classes during her time in high school, all the while being in the
National Honor Society. She also holds interest in directing, literature,
and art history. She is thrilled to begin her college education at
Southern Methodist University where she will be getting her BFA in
Theatre through the Meadows School of the Arts.
