What's happening in Golden today?


6:30PM Planning Commission

CoorsTek Property/Future Clayworks


The Planning Commission will hear a presentation from a graduate student on "Incentivizing Mixed-Income Developments Through a Reduction In Commercial Requirements." A few years ago, the Planning Commission specified that certain types of multi-family buildings should have business on the first floor. This was to encourage residents to walk around their neighborhoods rather than driving places. Now there's more emphasis on fitting more housing into the buildings. The presentation will explain that eliminating the commercial requirement will make housing more affordable by allowing developers to fit more housing into a building.

Their second topic will be energy building codes. They have been discussing the details with the Sustainability Board and will send a recommendation to City Council.

After the business meeting they will adjourn to a study session. They will go through new rules and procedures provided by Council and then review the Official Development Plan for the Coorstek/9th Street Clayworks project. On May 15th, they will meet again to review the Site Development Plan.

6-7:30PM Budget Open House


Don't forget tonight's Budget Open House at the Community Center! This should be a great opportunity to learn more about their spending plans.

Correction:
I made an error in yesterday's post when I wrote this:

REVENUE
2023: $110,127,474
2024: $155,881,220

EXPENSES *
2023: $115,377,053
2024: $166,578,393
* does not include capital expenses
** from the
2024 Budget in Review document

In fact, it does include capital expenses; I'm just not sure how much it includes. The Expenses by Fund in Detail (p. 13) included $2,670,000 for "Capital Programs" but the next page (p. 14) identifies $73,978,469 million for "Capital Outlay." What's the difference?

Also, what's the difference between the "Total Expenditures and Other Uses" of $101,693,519 shown on p. 32 of the 2023-2024Biennial Budget and the $166,578,393 "Total Expenses by Fund in Detail" shown on p. 11 of the 2024 Budget in Review?

And also, does the $166,578,393 include only $700,000 (p. 195 of the budget) toward the projected $65 million cost of the new city hall?

So many exciting questions! I hope to get the answers at the Open House.

Read the Budget in Review to find your own exciting questions! I hope to see you tonight at the Open House.

Golden History: Golden Paper Mill

The Golden Paper Mill, as shown in the 1893 Golden Globe Industrial Edition


157 Years Ago
The May 1, 1867 Colorado Transcript announced that construction would soon begin on a paper mill. The owners hoped to have the mill in operation by early July.

They expected to begin by producing lower grade paper, including newsprint, wrapping paper, and “cartridge paper.” They hoped to eventually move on to writing paper. The same edition included an advertisement offering to buy clean rags for use in making paper. Since trees were scarce in this region, the mill also used straw and occasionally rope in the manufacturing process.

Drawing of Golden in 1873, showing the Golden Paper Mill and the Rock Flour Mill
Excerpt from the 1873 Birdseye Map of Golden

The editor of the Transcript was delighted to have a paper mill in town. He occasionally goaded his fellow newspaper owners when they ran short of paper, reminding them that Golden had a paper mill, so he was able to get paper when they could not. On the other hand, the Golden Paper Mill seldom produced suitable stock for newspapers. It generally produced wrapping paper. When necessary, early Transcripts were printed on wrapping paper.

In 1869, the Paper Mill was sold to Mr. E. C. Wells, who upgraded the machinery and increased the capacity of the mill. He upgraded again in 1874, but ran into financial difficulties later that year, and the Mill was put up for auction. The country was in a depression at that time. Apparently he retained or recovered it, because he was the owner again and running for the State Senate in 1878. He must have won the election, because later Transcript articles referred to him as Senator Wells.

In 1878, the Mill was severely damaged in a flood, but rebuilt and expanded and was back in operation by the end of the year. It employed 15 men at that time. The machinery was powered by the diverted Clear Creek water, but they also had a large, coal-powered steam boiler to heat their bleaching vat and dry the paper. The boiler consumed about 2 tons of coal per day.

Excerpt from an 1882 Birdseye Map of Golden

The 1893 Golden Globe Industrial Edition stated that Senator Wells and his business partner were both in poor health and would be glad to find a purchaser. Apparently, none appeared. The country was again in a depression, which may have complicated the prospects for a sale.

In 1896, the Mill was again severely damaged by a flood, but again rebuilt. Later that year, the water in the flume froze, again forcing a shutdown. In the spring of 1898 the Mill was shut down due to low water in Clear Creek (and therefore, in the flume that powered the Mill).

Mr. Wells upgraded his machinery again in the spring of 1900 and afterwards was running two shifts of workers. In November of that year, the mill caught fire and was entirely destroyed. It was valued at $45,000 and only insured for $12,000. It was never rebuilt. The Transcript placed some blame on the superintendent of our water works. The fireplugs were so rusty that the firemen had trouble opening them, and the rust in the lines was so thick they had very low water pressure.

In 1901, an eastern company bought the property, intending to build a “concentrator” (smelter) there. Apparently (fortunately) the plan didn’t go through and the property was for sale again not long after. Mr. Wells died in Golden in 1914. In addition to his 30 years ownership of the Golden Paper Mill, he served two terms in the state legislature, several terms on Golden City Council, and one term on the Board of Trustees for the School of Mines. He is buried in the Golden Cemetery.

Excerpt from the 1886 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map of Golden Colorado. This map shows the flume that originally powered both the paper mill and the flour mill.

The mill was originally powered by water diverted from Clear Creek. This proved to be an unreliable power source, so the mill owners later installed a coal-powered boiler.
