What's new?
Opportunities to Engage and Connect are now listed separately to make it easier to find city-specific engagement opportunities. Let me know what you think!
This week at City Council
This week, the Council will receive an update on its Long-Term Financial Strategy (LTFS) priority. Read more about the history of this work and why it is crucial to our city's future here.
Get engaged
City staff will host an informational meeting on Wednesday about updates at the Boulder Reservoir. Friday is the last day to visit the North 30th Street Preliminary Design virtual open house, but it's also the start of Boulder Arts Week!
Community Kudos
I heard the excitement all the way in Arizona, so I'm sure you've already heard that the Sundance Film Festival is moving to Boulder in 2027! Congratulations to everyone who worked diligently to help the festival find a new home in Colorado.
