We want to play the police budget lessons and funding reallocated to housing and Human Services
We want trained non armed professionals to take all non criminal calls
let real carbon reduction begin now not five years from now
the boulder water utility monopoly has raised stormwater rates 87% Wastewater Rates 42% and drinking water rates 12%
Current occupancy limits depend on whether or not people are blood relatives are legally married
occupancy limit should be based on the structure and safety of a dwelling not on what counts as a family
It is in that as a member of this community and a member of the police oversight Task Force
We trust that Council will expand our mandate to incorporate police reform because we can't wait for 2021
In some ways the city's occupancy laws seem directly targeted at preventing large numbers of students from cohabitate eating
redirect police funding towards increasing the number of social workers drug counselors and mental health experts
We encourage council to call up our concept plan so we can get your feedback
The recruitment for the city's first independent police monitor is underway
The city is hosting a virtual town hall to give all community members, an opportunity to meet the final candidates
So the, the city and beat and BHP partnership. So, First, we're going to be working on.
So HP is committing to a couple things here. The first is taking on a 1% ownership of the property
creating development, if you'll remember on quadrant one we're going to be getting some affordable commercial space as well

as joint developers with BHP we've been able to leverage the development of this project

There was discussion about the need to address transportation connections and the annexation agreement
There was discussion about the need to address transportation connections
Two years ago Council approved the very one 500 year South Boulder Creek flood mitigation plan
imagine that see you is already built its campus at CU south
follow the golden valley comp plan suggestions that an alternative site be found for see us campus
And an option could be is because some people thought about swapping lands and I thought about alpine balsam
In combination with places like the Alpine balsam or other areas
See you into doing some sort of trade, maybe with a planning reserve
We've also learned that 500 year flood protection is not compatible with the sea of self project
which will require an increase to the stormwater and flood management rate of 50%
Most people consider the boulder Valley comp plan to be an aspirational document
the comprehensive plan should indicated with that this would be valid
First, it's important that the city understands how XL will achieve the state mandated carbon reduction goals
When that last franchise agreement was not renewed in 2010 financial support for underground in the area lines ended
A franchise agreement is subject to vote or approval under our city charter
I have one quick question in regards to the right to terminate franchise, could the community do that at any time
