A note from Chuck Stevens

As we turn the corner into the summer months the county staff will begin to focus on developing the 2020 budget. This year’s budget meetings will kick off on June 6th. As in years past, we are going to be challenged with balancing our operational expenses with our shrinking operational revenues. However, just as we have over the past few years, I am certain that we will find creative and innovative solutions to the problems we are facing. I am counting on each and every member of the county team to play a role and to be a part of the solution.

Along with the budget development the county continues to work on a revision to the land use code- this has been the Board’s number one priority for the last three years and will remain so until the updates are complete. For the past 18 months the county commissioners and planning department staff have been engaging with our citizens and listening to their concerns. We are confident that we have a path forward that will both address the concerns of our constituents, while providing the much needed predictability and certainty that is currently lacking in our existing code. The code’s revision will lay the foundation for development throughout the county that increases our county’s tax base and helps growth pay for itself – rather than burden the county’s operational revenues as it currently does.

As always thank you for choosing to be a part of the La Plata County team and thank you for all you do.

Thank You Road & Bridge Team!

I’d like to give a big pat on the back to Doyle Villers and the entire road and bridge crew for all of their outstanding work on the dirt roads in LPC. I rode in the gravel ride as part of the Iron Horse, and all of the gravel roads on that course were in great shape! I overheard more than one rider comment on how great the roads were to ride on.

(Next opportunity is August 29th)

Presented by Sarah Jacobson and James Torres

CAB Training Room ~ No Charge

“We can’t solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.” (Albert Einstein) Do you ever find yourself thinking that something about your job makes you crazy (process, not people!) and you wonder how you can change it? Well, you’re not alone and the good news is that your Innovation Team wants you to fix these things that make you crazy by sharing some tools to improve processes, eliminate waste and increase employee satisfaction by inspiring creativity and efficiency! Over the last year, nearly 200 employees have attended our innovation trainings - a 4-hour introduction to process improvement tools. The class is fun, inspiring and there is no role playing! Since late 2016, county employees have been enthusiastically innovating and eliminated over 8,000 hours of doing things that drive us crazy so we can spend more time where it counts: doing what we love about our job. The Perins Peak training is a 4-hour introduction to process improvement tools. This training will introduce Innovate La Plata and tools to improve processes, eliminate waste and increase employee satisfaction by inspiring creativity and efficiency!

Stress Management: Finding Balance

Wednesday, June 26th ~ 8:30 am - 4:30 pm

Presented by Eric Daly, MSEC

CAB Training Room ~ $50 per employee

Life is full of deadlines, frustrations, and demands. The influence of technology and the need to respond immediately, added to the common organizational culture of “take on more,” leads to stress becoming a way of life. If you find yourself feeling frazzled and overwhelmed, it’s time to take action to bring your life back into balance. This class provides a comprehensive approach to managing stress including lifestyle balance, modifying behavior patterns, and enhancing physical awareness. Emphasis is placed on helping participants become more aware of their stress responses, creating a sense of choice and control over what happens to them.

Spider and Snake Bites

Spider bites are a threat year-round, but April through October are the months with the highest rates of snake bites in the U.S. because snakes and humans are active in the same areas. As we work or enjoy recreational activities outside, we should be mindful of what to do in the event we are bitten by a spider or snake. If the bite occurs while you are working, always remember to file your workers’ compensation paperwork.

Spiders

Colorado is home to various spiders, but only the female black widow and the brown recluse spider are able to deliver serious or sometimes life-threatening bites. Black widow spiders stand out with their black color and distinct red hourglass marking on the abdomen. Brown recluse spiders are flat brown and have a darker, violin-shaped marking on their back. Both of these spiders prefer to live in dark or dim environments, most typically crawl-spaces, seldom used buildings or sheds, or wood and debris piles. Common symptoms of a spider bite include: localized pain and tissue damage, muscle spasms, difficulty breathing, chest tightness, dizziness, sweating, nausea, vomiting, and rashes. Treat a spider bite by washing the site with lukewarm water and soap, apply a dry and sterile dressing, take an over-the-counter pain medication if needed, and visit a medical provider.

Snakes

The three native snakes that pose a threat to humans in Colorado include the western rattlesnake, the prairie rattlesnake, and the massasauga rattlesnake. The telltale signs of a venomous snake bite include two small puncture wounds about .5 inches apart, skin discoloration around the wound, swelling, and intense localized pain. Some people may go into anaphylaxis, which is an acute and systemic allergic reaction and should be treated as an emergency.

If you notice the above mentioned adverse reactions, call 9-1-1 or have a co-worker do so and have them drive you to an emergency room. Identify that you were bitten by a snake and describe the snake’s appearance so that the

emergency room can prepare accordingly. If possible, note the time of the bite. Remain calm and once in the care of someone else, lay still and flat in a comfortable position. An elevated heart rate or additional movement will increase the rate of spread of the venom in your bloodstream. Wash the wound with lukewarm soap and water. Remove all restrictive items near the wound, including jewelry, watches, rings, and tight clothing. These items may restrict swelling and cause additional discomfort. Do not eat, drink, or take anything by mouth. If swelling is present, use a pen to trace the outline of the swelling and note the time. This will help first responders or medical staff identify the rate of spread and severity of swelling.

Do not try to suck out the venom with your mouth. Secondary envenomation can still occur if the venom is swallowed. Do not cut open the wound site in an attempt to release the venom. Do not apply a makeshift tourniquet or try to restrict blood flow, and do not ice the wound.

Do not attempt to catch the snake or take it to the hospital for reference. Even if the snake is dead, its nerves are still functional for some time after death. If possible, take a photo of the snake; otherwise, leave it alone.

While they can be dangerous to humans, spiders and snakes are a necessary part of the ecosystem. Whenever possible, respect these animals and let them go on their way.

SAFETY TRAININGS

The next New Employee Risk Management & Safety

Orientations will be on Monday, July 1st and August 5th

Denver: The Colorado Department of Public Health and

Environment advises people who are traveling abroad, or to

areas in the U.S. with ongoing measles outbreaks, to ensure

they are protected against this highly contagious illness.

With measles outbreaks across the country, it’s a good idea

to check vaccination records to ensure protection.

“It’s essential to know your vaccination or immunity status

if you are planning to travel to areas where measles

outbreaks have been reported,” said Dr. Rachel Herlihy,

state communicable disease epidemiologist. “Measles, once

considered eliminated in the U.S., has made a comeback. As

you make your plans for travel, ensure checking vaccination

records is on your list. We encourage everyone, regardless

of travel, to be up to date on all recommended vaccines.”

Measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine is available at

doctor’s offices and many retail pharmacies. People can

check vaccinefinder.org to find a retail location. People who

need help paying for vaccinations should contact their local

public health department.

Vaccination recommendations

Children should get two doses of measles-containing

vaccine (either MMR or measles-mumps-rubella-varicella

[MMRV]), one at 12–15 months and a second at 4-6 years.

While two doses of vaccine is highly effective in preventing

disease, the measles virus is extremely contagious. Every

year, in every community, 92-95 percent vaccination

coverage with two doses of vaccine is needed to prevent

outbreaks.

Infants 6–11 months of age should receive one dose of

MMR prior to traveling abroad. One dose of MMR also may

be considered for infants traveling to certain areas in the

U.S. with ongoing measles outbreaks.

Children traveling abroad or to an outbreak area who are

over 12 months of age can get their second dose of MMR

early (rather than wait until 4-6 years) as long as it has been

four weeks since the previous dose.

Adults who received at least one dose of MMR on or after

their first birthday should be protected against measles, but

people in certain high-risk groups such as health care

professionals, students at colleges and universities, and

those who plan to travel internationally should have two

doses or other evidence of measles immunity.

People ages 12 months and older who don’t have evidence

of measles immunity (defined as birth before 1957, a history

of having measles in the past, or a blood test that shows

immunity) should have two doses (at least one month

apart) of MMR or MMRV prior to traveling abroad.

For people with compromised immune systems, all

members of their family and other close contacts who are

12 months of age or older should receive two doses of MMR

vaccine unless they have other evidence of measles

immunity.

A previous measles vaccine, which was available from 1963

to 1967, was not as effective as the current measles vaccine,

so people who were vaccinated prior to 1968 may need to

be revaccinated with at least one dose of MMR.

Measles immunity

People born before 1957 are likely to have had vaccine-

preventable diseases during childhood and therefore are

presumed to be protected against measles, mumps and

rubella. However, people born before 1957 who belong to

certain high-risk groups, including health care personnel,

may need additional MMR vaccine or other proof of

immunity.

If you’re unsure whether you were vaccinated or are

immune to measles, you can get a blood test to find out.

Talk to your health care provider about whether this is

something you should do.

Measles symptoms and complications

The early symptoms of measles are fever; runny nose;

cough; and red, watery eyes. Usually, one to four days

after the early symptoms, a red rash appears on the face

and spreads to the rest of the body. People with measles

can spread the disease from four days before the rash

appears until four days after it goes away.

If you are sick with these symptoms, contact a health

care provider as soon as possible. Call the doctor’s office

and tell them about your symptoms. To protect others, do

not go inside a doctor’s office, urgent care or hospital

unless instructed by your doctor.

Measles is not a mild illness. It can be serious in all age

groups, but complications are most common in children

under age 5 and adults over age 20. Complications can

include hospitalization and pneumonia. Encephalitis can

occur in one of 1,000 cases, and death in 1-2 of 1,000

cases. Before the vaccine was widely available, 450-500

measles deaths occurred each year in the U.S.

More information

The CDC has travel notices for people traveling abroad. To

find out where outbreaks (three or more cases) are

occurring in the U.S., visit the CDC measles outbreak web

page.

The Colorado Department of Public Health and

Environment Immunizations and Communicable Disease

branches work to increase vaccination rates and stop the

spread of vaccine-preventable diseases in Colorado. The

Immunization Branch focuses on improving access to

vaccinations through its Vaccines for Children

Program. Learn more at our measles and immunizations

web pages.

Don’t have a copy of your immunization records?

You can request a record for yourself or your child from the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment. Please note that CIIS may not contain all of your records.

The process to request your records can be found on their website: https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdphe/immunization-records

Paycheck Checkup

The IRS advises that everyone should check their tax withholding

It's important to revisit your tax withholding after major changes from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. A Paycheck Checkup can help you see if you’re withholding the right amount of tax from your paychecks. Too little could mean an unexpected tax bill or penalty.

More information may be found online at the IRS’ website as well as a withholding calculator tool. To effectively use the calculator, you will need your:

Most recent pay stubs

Most recent income tax return

Visit the IRS Paycheck Checkup at https://www.irs.gov/paycheck-checkup

Page 7

Thanks, also, to employees who attended and visited the various vendors and participated in the blood draw. It’s really important that you review your blood test results with your primary care provider. If you are a member of the Employee Primary Care clinic, please contact our liaison Ashley at 970-764-9345 to schedule an appointment.

If you are not a member of the Employee Primary Care clinic and would like more information about how to enroll, please contact Julie Pickett at 382-6381 or Julie.pickett@co.laplata.co.us.

Many thanks to all those who helped make

the Wellness Fair a success, especially Sarah

Jacobson, Angela Fountain and the other

members of the Wellness Team!

Who: ADMINISTRATION

What:

The minutes from each Board of County Commissioner business and planning meeting have to be edited and approved by everyone with an agenda item on that meeting, the public affairs officer and each county commissioner. Routing the minutes through each approver can be a cumbersome process, and often resulted in reprinting minutes and long delays between approvers and, ultimately, finalizing the minutes for posting to the public. Now, a weekly Minutes Status Report is sent to anyone who has a set of minutes to approve. This way, everyone gets to see where each set of minutes is in the process and how long it has been with that person.

Savings (time & money):

$265 in saved paper for not having to reprint “lost” minutes

$960 in saved time not having to remind minutes-

approvers and re-send minutes

Innovation Team members Devin King, Jessica Wheeldon, Sarah Jacobson and Devon Schmitt at Innovate La Plata’s 3rd Birthday Party Celebration

Greetings innovators! Summer is just around the corner and

innovations are blooming throughout the county. Plant your seeds now: Sarah

Jacobson and James Torres will teach you the tips, tricks and techniques for

fixing the things that drive you crazy about your work processes. Join them from

12:30-4:30 p.m. June 4 in the CAB Training Room. It’s a fun, inspiring,

empowering afternoon! Sign up in ESS or call Sarah J. with questions.

Here are a few of the innovations that have sprouted up recently:

Who: FLEET

What:

Tires on heavy trucks were wearing abnormally and unevenly, so the fleet team found glass balance beads that can be placed inside the tire to help keep it in balance.

Savings (time & money):

1.5 hours in staff time saved for each tire not changed

$400-600 per tire that does not need replacing

Who: FLEET

What:

One of the plow trucks was losing wheels as it traveled down the road, causing danger for drivers and the community. Turns out, the crews were over-tightening the lug nuts. By purchasing a 75-cent wheel check for each lug nut, the team can visually see if one becomes loose and fix it before leaving the yard.

Savings (time & money):

Fewer vehicle repairs

No lost or damaged tires

Driver and community safety improved: Priceless!

Employees recognized for innovation

Marcia France, Loretta Lujan, Alix Whittaker, and Vicki Maestas participated in a state- and federally-sponsored grant opportunity with an agency called Mathematica Policy Research, looking at ways to innovate Colorado Works processes. They implemented a process called “Mobile Coaching”, which includes providing transportation for clients to community agencies while also talking/coaching with the client before, during, and after the trip. This was groundbreaking in the world of TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) and has led to a published article on this approach.

Here is a link to the article, with Marcia, Loretta, Alix, and Vicki credited as co-authors. The brief on Mobile Coaching went live last week on the Office of the Administration for Children and Families’ Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) website and will be featured in their upcoming biweekly newsletter: https://www.acf.hhs.gov/opre/resource/mobile-coaching-innovation-and-small-scale-experimentation-to-better-engage-program-participants-in-rural-colorado Congratulations to our Colorado Works team for this recognition of their hard work and creative thinking!

At about 4pm on Monday, May 13, Human Services staff pulled the fire alarm and evacuated 10 Burnett Court after smelling the telltale odor of a hot electrical component and seeing smoke on our second floor and in the lobby. Our Human Services employees performed with excellence, evacuating quickly and calmly, ensuring that all of our clients were out of the building and double-checking that the third floor occupants were aware of the need to get out. The Durango Fire Protection District responded immediately with multiple trucks, crew members, and volunteers. Lee Gurule and Mark Andre arrived as soon as they could, entering the building with the firefighters while the rest of our county staff was leaving the building.

The terrible smell and smoke was caused by an overheated motor in the cooling system. Lee had to climb into the ceiling panels above our second floor landing to locate the culprit.

It quickly became clear that we would not be going back to work on Monday because resolving the issue and clearing out the smoke would take longer than an hour. Human Services employees worked with the firefighters to safely get their personal belongings out of their offices so they could leave for the day. Everyone was patient and efficient during this process of shuttling in and out of the building.

The last firefighters left the scene before 6pm. Lee and Mark stayed to ensure the security of the building

HUMAN SERVICES NEWS

and to leave a few second floor windows open so the smoky smell would dissipate.

Fire drills are worth it! Because we had practiced how to evacuate the building and where to go, this crisis situation went smoothly. We were all grateful that it was no worse and that we could return to business as usual on Tuesday morning.

Fire drills are worth it!

Single Stream Recycling

La Plata County government offices participate in the Single Stream Recycling program. You may place all of the items shown below in your building’s recycle bins! It is fine if they are mixed together. However, it is critical that items are empty and clean! Throwing items with food waste into the Single Stream Recycling program may cause the entire batch of materials to be hauled to the dump instead of being recycled! So please don’t throw that greasy pizza box or dirty coffee cup into the recycling bin!

*Please note that glass bottles and jars are not part of the Single Stream Recycling program, BUT can be recycled. La Plata County offices do not have glass bottle and jar recycling bins so we encourage employees to take their glass recyclables to the Durango Recycling Center where you may dispose of them at no charge. In some departments, volunteers offer to collect and take them to the center. Please contact your department’s RCT advocate to find a volunteer or be a volunteer!

*Glass is not accepted in Single Stream, but may still be dropped off at the Recycling Center.*
