HAPPY HOLIDAYS<br />

I want to wish you and your family a happy and healthy<br />

holiday season.<br />

This year has been an unprecedented time for<br />

families and businesses presenting challenges<br />

for everyone. I remain hopeful vaccines will be<br />

rapidly deployed allowing us to return to a<br />

more "normal" life.<br />

ENJOY OUR PARKS<br />

AND TRAILS<br />

During this difficult time, when many of our<br />

activities are restricted, I want to encourage you<br />

to enjoy the Village’s many Parks and Trails.<br />

Whether you are enjoying the High Line<br />

Canal, Village Greens Park, Westlands, Tommy<br />

Davis or any of the many other parks, I believe<br />

you will enjoy the peace and beauty of being outside in a safe<br />

environment. There are 20 parks and 47 trail miles in the<br />

Village for you to enjoy. A list of the parks and map of the<br />

trails is available on the Village website. The link is:<br />

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR<br />

BUSINESS COMMUNITY<br />

Now more than ever our restaurants need our help. As you<br />

will read on page 16, many restaurants are working to keep<br />

their doors open by offering creative menus including<br />

takeout and many innovative options to facilitate outdoor<br />

dining. Please help out by patronizing local establishments.<br />

Their success helps not only the business but also our Village.<br />

GREENWOOD VILLAGE<br />

CARES PROGRAM<br />

I want to share some good news about the Greenwood<br />

Village Cares Program. In partnership with Arapahoe<br />

County, the City Council directed our funding be used to<br />

support the local business community. The first <strong>GV</strong> CARES<br />

Small Business Grant Program was launched in July to help<br />

the Greenwood Village business community respond to the<br />

ongoing public health emergency. During Round 1, the City<br />

awarded 223 applicants nearly $2 million in <strong>GV</strong> CARES<br />

funds. A second round was launched in September. Round 2<br />

awarded another 198 applicants over $2.6 million. These<br />

funds have helped businesses reopen, provide PPE and<br />

enhance their facility to meet health department<br />

requirements.<br />

HUNTINGTON ACRES AND<br />

TOMMY DAVIS PARKS UPDATE<br />

The construction of Huntington Acres Park and Tommy<br />

Davis Park Master Plan improvements are nearly complete.<br />

The major milestones achieved in November include:<br />

VILLAGE HERO<br />

Congratulations to Tiffane Eschbach for being named a<br />

Village Hero!<br />

While visiting Cherry Creek State Park with her family,<br />

Tiffane discovered a large bird wrapped in a fishing line on<br />

the Reservoir’s shore. Tiffane contacted park officials and<br />

waited patiently for assistance.<br />

Unfortunately, a flock of crows<br />

discovered the injured bird with<br />

a different intent. Without<br />

hesitation, Tiffane went to the<br />

bird’s rescue! She scared off the<br />

crows and on her third attempt<br />

she was able to use her<br />

sweatshirt to wrap and protect<br />

the bird. Shortly, a Loon<br />

enthusiast arrived in an orange<br />

kayak. The Loon enthusiast had<br />

been looking for the injured bird<br />

for a several days. The good<br />

news is the Loon is now<br />

rehabilitating and is expected to<br />

make a full recovery. Thank you<br />

Tiffane for making a difference!<br />

Best wishes for Wonderful<br />

Holiday Season and a Happy<br />

and Healthy New Year!<br />

ENSURING A SAFE<br />

community<br />

KEEP YOUR PACKAGES SAFE<br />

FROM PORCH PIRATES<br />

It’s that time of year when your holiday packages start arriving at<br />

your front porch so here is a reminder about how to keep your<br />

items safe from porch pirates.<br />

• Get Permission to Ship All Your Packages to Work.<br />

• Ask a Friend or Neighbor to Receive Your Packages for You.<br />

• Set Up a Live Recording Video Camera Aimed at Your Porch.<br />

• Schedule packages to be delivered when you or someone you<br />

trust will definitely be there to pick it up.<br />

• Consider placing a planted pot or decorative piece on your<br />

porch that could hide a delivery.<br />

• Consider getting a lock box installed near your front yard<br />

door so that the delivery driver can put your package in a<br />

secure location.<br />

• Use a secure Amazon locker.<br />

For more information or to report a porch pirate theft, please call<br />

the Police Department at 303-773-2525. <strong>GV</strong><br />

HOLIDAY SHOPPING<br />

SAFETY TIPS<br />

With the holidays upon us, the Village<br />

would like everyone to have a safe<br />

holiday season. Provided below are<br />

some safety tips of which to be aware<br />

and practice when doing your holiday<br />

shopping.<br />

• Be aware of your surroundings at<br />

all times.<br />

• When shopping, try to park in a<br />

well-lit portion of the parking lot<br />

or street.<br />

• When you park your car, secure the<br />

valuables that you have left in your<br />

car by placing them in the trunk.<br />

Do not leave cellular phones,<br />

purses, CD cases, laptops, or any<br />

other item of value in your parked<br />

car where they can be seen. It is<br />

better not to leave valuables in<br />

the car at all. Make sure you close<br />

your windows, lock your doors and<br />

activate your car alarm, if you have<br />

one.<br />

• Do not leave purchased<br />

merchandise in your parked car<br />

where it can be seen. Put these<br />

items in your trunk, or conceal<br />

them inside the vehicle.<br />

• Keep your purse on your body, not<br />

left in a cart or in the car. If you<br />

carry a small purse, carry it over<br />

your shoulder under your coat.<br />

Do not carry all of your credit cards<br />

with you. Leave your unneeded<br />

documents at home.<br />

• Always be aware of the location of<br />

your personal items. Know where<br />

your purse, cellular phone, wallet,<br />

packages, etc. are at all times. Do<br />

not leave them unattended. Do not<br />

overburden yourself with packages.<br />

• When you are finished shopping,<br />

have your keys in your hand before<br />

reaching your car door. Take notice<br />

of your surroundings. If you see<br />

that someone is watching you and<br />

that you may be a potential victim,<br />

return to the store immediately, and<br />

call security or the Police<br />

Department at 9-1-1.<br />

• Do whatever you need to keep safe,<br />

even if it means asking a security<br />

guard or a police officer to escort<br />

you to your car. It is always better<br />

to be safe than sorry.<br />

If you have any questions or need<br />

assistance, please call the Greenwood<br />

Village Police Department at<br />

303-773-2525 or call 9-1-1. <strong>GV</strong><br />

CREATING<br />

HOLIDAY<br />

MEMORIES<br />

IN 2020<br />

8 HOLIDAY SEASON<br />

SAFETY BASICS<br />

Certain things can increase<br />

our risk of getting the virus<br />

and we should avoid going<br />

to places such as crowded<br />

stores, parties, and being in<br />

close contact with anyone<br />

outside your household. Stay<br />

virus-free by following the<br />

simple steps to protect each<br />

other:<br />

1 Avoid in-person<br />

gatherings.<br />

2 Avoid unnecessary travel<br />

and plan stay at home<br />

activities.<br />

3 Stay six feet apart<br />

everywhere — indoors<br />

and outdoors.<br />

4 Stay home if around<br />

someone who is ill or if<br />

you have symptoms.<br />

5 Wear a mask.<br />

6 Wash hands often or use<br />

hand sanitizer.<br />

7 Avoid crowds by<br />

ordering groceries and<br />

gifts online.<br />

8 Take extra care for those<br />

at higher risk.<br />

This reduces the chances of<br />

recirculating the same air<br />

and of spreading the virus.<br />

Consider making a plan to<br />

help everyone follow the<br />

simple steps to protect each<br />

other.<br />

’TIS THE SEASON TO SPREAD<br />

HOLIDAY SPIRIT WHILE<br />

SOCIAL DISTANCING<br />

Only socialize in-person with your own<br />

household. Connect with your family and<br />

friends virtually. When shopping, buying<br />

online is a good way to avoid crowds when<br />

holiday shopping. Be safe and share creative<br />

ways to stay connected while celebrating<br />

life together.<br />

Other Fun Holiday Ideas<br />

• Exchange traditional family recipes with<br />

relatives. Make a new dish, take a<br />

picture, and share your picture on email,<br />

text, or on social media.<br />

• Plan a no-steal or steal-friendly virtual<br />

white elephant gift exchange party.<br />

• Put up your favorite decorations and<br />

share your pictures online.<br />

• Have a virtual watch party to enjoy<br />

parades, sporting events, and holiday<br />

movies at home.<br />

• Having a virtual dinner and share one<br />

favorite recipe each with friends and<br />

family.<br />

• Have a virtual office or family ugly<br />

sweater party and play a game like<br />

holiday bingo.<br />

• Ask family and friends to take part in<br />

holiday charitable donations.<br />

• Arrange a way to see each other virtually<br />

while opening presents.<br />

• Go for a walk in your neighborhood and<br />

vote on your favorite decorations.<br />

• Participate in a gratitude activity like<br />

writing down what you are thankful for<br />

and sharing with your friends and<br />

family.<br />

• Send heartfelt holiday greeting cards to<br />

your family and friends.<br />

• Create a photo memory book. <strong>GV</strong><br />

COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF<br />

PUBLIC HEALTH & ENVIRONMENT<br />

MOVES ARAPAHOE COUNTY<br />

(GREENWOOD VILLAGE)<br />

TO RED LEVEL DUE TO<br />

RISING COVID CASES<br />

Effective Friday, November 20, Adams, Arapahoe<br />

and Douglas Counties were moved by the Colorado<br />

Department of Public Health and Environment<br />

(CDPHE) to the new “Level Red: Severe Risk”<br />

restrictions, as are all other counties in the metro<br />

area including Denver, Boulder, Jefferson, and<br />

Broomfield Counties. The order updates Level Red<br />

to indicate counties where there is severe risk of<br />

COVID-19 spreading rapidly, while allowing some<br />

businesses to remain open at very limited capacity.<br />

Major restrictions include:<br />

• Indoor dining at restaurants is closed.<br />

• Socially-distanced outdoor seating is allowed, as<br />

are take-out, delivery, and drive-thru.<br />

• Last call for alcohol in a restaurant is 8 p.m., and<br />

bars that do not serve food are closed.<br />

• All retail, including Critical retail, is subject to<br />

the 50% occupancy limit, and strongly<br />

encouraged to offer more curbside, take-out and<br />

delivery options in order to reduce in-person<br />

services to the minimum necessary.<br />

• Libraries and animal grooming were added to the<br />

list of critical businesses<br />

• Personal gatherings with anyone outside of a<br />

single household are prohibited<br />

• All Indoor Events are prohibited, except Houses<br />

of Worship and Life Rites may operate at 25% of<br />

the posted occupancy limit indoors not to exceed<br />

50 people excluding staff, whichever is less, per<br />

room<br />

• Office-based businesses are limited to no more<br />

than 10% capacity and should be maximizing<br />

work from home for all activities that can be<br />

done remotely<br />

• Gyms are limited to 10% occupancy or 10 people<br />

per room, whichever is fewer<br />

restrictions at each level, visit: https://covid19<br />

COVID-19 DIAL REVISED<br />

CDPHE released an updated public health order which updates Level<br />

Red to indicate counties where there is severe risk of COVID-19<br />

spreading rapidly, while allowing some businesses to remain open at<br />

very limited capacity. A sixth level, Level Purple: Extreme Risk, for<br />

counties where hospital capacity is at extreme risk of being overrun,<br />

and most businesses and indoor services must be closed. The updated<br />

dial levels went into effect on Friday, Nov. 20.<br />

The new dial levels are:<br />

Level Green – Protect Our Neighbors: for counties that are able to<br />

locally contain surges. Most businesses are open with generous<br />

capacity limits.<br />

Level Blue – Caution: for counties with low transmission levels that<br />

aren’t quite ready for Protect Our Neighbors. Capacity limits are more<br />

permissive than yellow.<br />

Level Yellow – Concern: the baseline level for counties with elevated<br />

transmission levels but stable hospitalizations.<br />

Level Orange – High Risk: for counties where numbers are going up<br />

but not to the point where everything needs to be shut down. The<br />

capacity limits are moderate.<br />

Level Red – Severe Risk: for counties with high levels of<br />

transmission, hospitalizations, and positivity rates. Most indoor<br />

activities are prohibited or strictly limited, and outdoor activities are<br />

encouraged as an alternative. The capacity limits are significant.<br />

Level Purple – Extreme Risk: for counties where hospital capacity is<br />

at extreme risk of being overrun. At this level, all businesses must<br />

significantly curtail in person functions and people must stay at home<br />

except for necessary activities.<br />

For information about Colorado’s COVID-19 dial and county status,<br />

SHOULD I GET<br />

TESTED?<br />

Anyone with COVID-19 symptoms like<br />

cough, fever, or other respiratory<br />

problems should call their healthcare<br />

provider for guidance and separate<br />

themselves from others.<br />

Anyone who may have been exposed to<br />

someone with COVID-19 should<br />

quarantine for 14 days from the last date<br />

they were exposed.<br />

You should wait about seven days after<br />

you think you were exposed before you<br />

get tested to make sure there is enough<br />

of the virus for the test to find COVID-<br />

19 in your body. Even if you test<br />

negative for COVID-19 before the end<br />

of two weeks of quarantine, you should<br />

still stay home for the full 14 days, in<br />

case you get sick after your test.<br />

of your own household.<br />

Stay home while you are sick and avoid close contact<br />

with others.<br />

Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.<br />

VIRTUAL BUILDING<br />

INSPECTIONS AVAILABLE!!<br />

Some building inspections may be conducted virtually if the<br />

inspector is comfortable with the scope of the project and<br />

finds that the key elements of the inspection can be verified<br />

virtually in a manner that allows the inspector to verify<br />

compliance with the approved permit and codes.<br />

The following are types of inspections that can be conducted<br />

virtually:<br />

• Multifamily building inspections within interior corridors.<br />

• Any commercial mechanical, plumbing, frame inspection.<br />

• Residential furnace or water heater.<br />

RECREATION REIMBURSEMENT DEADLINE FRIDAY, JANUARY 15, 2020<br />

FOR ALL 2020 RECEIPTS<br />

Wow, what a year! But some things are still the same, like the<br />

Recreation Reimbursement submission deadline. We realize<br />

that for some of you, things are extra hectic with revised<br />

work schedules and children at home for school. Please take<br />

some time out of your busy day to gather your 2020 activity<br />

receipts to submit for reimbursement. We would hate for you<br />

to miss out!<br />

The deadline for submitting your 2020 recreation<br />

reimbursement requests is January 15, 2020. They may be<br />

dropped off in person by 5 p.m., postmarked by January 15<br />

or emailed by 12 midnight. Please note there are no<br />

exceptions to this deadline.<br />

Good To Know:<br />

• All activities paid for in 2020, including those taking<br />

place in 2021, must be submitted as part of your 2020<br />

reimbursement request. Exception: see annual<br />

membership information below.<br />

• Annual memberships (12 months paid in advance) at<br />

qualifying recreation facilities that are paid in <strong>December</strong><br />

to take advantage of a membership sale for the following<br />

calendar year must be applied to the following year (i.e. if<br />

you pay in 2020 for all of 2021, that is applied to your<br />

2021 reimbursement).<br />

• To qualify for reimbursement an agency must be a public<br />

recreation entity (parks and recreation district,<br />

metropolitan district, municipal golf course) or a<br />

nonprofit youth sports agency in the Denver Metro Area.<br />

• 2020 golf receipts: staff realizes that there were a few<br />

months when it was not possible to obtain the usual<br />

receipts from golf courses. Under those circumstances, you<br />

may submit credit card statements.<br />

• Private entities such as Lifetime Fitness and for-profit<br />

youth sports agencies are not reimbursable.<br />

• All receipts must be itemized showing the name of the<br />

organization, activity, date and the amount paid (see golf<br />

exception above).<br />

• Only the activity itself is reimbursable; fees for golf carts,<br />

skate rentals, team jerseys, etc. are not reimbursable.<br />

A form is included in the middle of this <strong>Newsletter</strong> for your<br />

convenience. More detailed information can be found online<br />

at www.greenwoodvillage.com/recreimbursement. Due to the<br />

current COVID concerns, residents are encouraged to email<br />

their forms and receipts to ptr@greenwoodvillage.com or<br />

mail them to: City of Greenwood Village, Attn: Parks, Trails<br />

and Recreation, 10001 East Costilla Avenue, Greenwood<br />

OWN A PIECE OF THE<br />

CURTIS CENTER FOR THE ARTS<br />

The Curtis Center for the Arts, built in 1914, is the center of cultural activity in<br />

Greenwood Village. The Center hosts art classes, rotating exhibits and<br />

community events. Now you can own a small piece of this historic space. The<br />

Center has repurposed<br />

its advertising banners<br />

and made them into<br />

durable tote bags.<br />

These artful tote bags<br />

were constructed by<br />

The Mile High<br />

Workshop. The Mile<br />

High WorkShop is an<br />

employment and job<br />

training program for<br />

those facing barriers to<br />

work. They assemble<br />

and manufacture<br />

products in<br />

partnership with their<br />

business partners to<br />

create work<br />

opportunities.<br />

Making a great holiday gift, these bags are available to anyone that makes a<br />

donation to the Greenwood Village Arts and Humanities Council of at least<br />

$50. For more information call or email the Curtis Center for the Arts,<br />

303-797-1779 or cstevens@greenwoodvillage.com. Hurry for best selection.<br />
