Would like to extend program to <br />Louisville but concerns about the lack of local food available. <br />• Soil sequestration — something being considered for Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan. <br />• Local farmers are looking to find a commercial kitchen to do something with their surplus <br />crop. Contact Adrian Card at Boulder County Parks & Open Space for more information. <br />• Additional information can be found in handouts (see attached) <br />Action Item: Ask Kerry to add MaryAnn as the point of contact for LSAB on the website. <br />e.

Dave's Minute: Submitted a grant request to Boulder County for business recognition and water <br />program. Working on feasibility study to look at changing out some city vehicles to electric vehicles. <br />City has 2 charging ports; there are also 2 private charging locations. Library parking lot will get LED <br />retrofit — payback is less than 2 years. <br />11. Update Sustainability Roadmap <br />a.
