AI-read · unreviewed32 mentions; quotes verbatim from the captions or agenda, chosen by a model, unchecked by a personboards and commissions we have concluded interviews for all boards and commissions and will be appointing new members this evening
i'm hoping this is going to be part of the community dialogue and cu's understanding of the disorder
we're also continuing in partnership with downtown to promote and connect people to small businesses including the farmer's market
encampment response resourcing which was already scheduled and the safe parking issue that was already scheduled
i'm here to um say some things about the south um boulder floodplain
have shown that what's needed to avoid the catastrophic climate change conserve species secure essential
discuss a couple items related to detached accessory dwelling units it has come to my attention
how adus are reviewed and approved by staff without public comment or public notice is a concern
it's a little bit out of sight out of mind uh since we've stopped the municipalization process
i will be speaking about the call up of the planning board's approval of the conversion of the marpa house
the increasing density of student housing is having serious negative impacts on the on the hill neighborhood
we believe that the university needs to play a greater role in providing student housing
high-density student housing represents exactly the type of development that will further promote the trend
we need a bigger police presence i have to carry mace and a knife
there are two dysfunctional systems that work in this town public safety and homelessness homelessness is a systemic problem
the fact that we don't feel safe on the boulder mall is on the city council
the man in the tent did not want help they usually refuse help he said sometime that day
i hope the new police oversight panel together with a new police chief will steer away from enforcement and towards service
i implore you to bring additional police presence down to the pearl street mall
first we have the call up item for the non-conforming use review for the historic restoration and conversion
section 9215 of the land use code and a determination on this application is a criteria-based decision
the code allows non-conforming uses to be changed and upgraded and generally the non-conforming use review criteria
it would be pretty hard for them to sort of meet the parking requirements say for a government facility
if not then we'd anticipate prioritizing these improvements alongside other intersection improvements in town through the cip
affordable housing is the intersection of nearly every planning issue and i appreciate you bringing up the question
there are a number of ongoing efforts including our own coordination with boulder housing partners
i will just point out that unless the tribal consultation moves off then
and then the last uh suggestion i had heard were cameras and i'm sure that gets expensive
it has been the city's um program for lack of a better term not to install a lot of surveillance type cameras
so i think that the the riots do compel us to to take some action and add this to the work plan
we have an anti-retaliation ordinance on the books but i believe it only relates to mobile home communities
that nothing major would have to come off the work plan because maybe this is that little space
