BOULDER VALLEY COMP PLAN CONTINUED March 1, 1977 Minutes - page 3 1. How the vast amount of open space was to be achieved. Response: Approximately 80% is already owned by the City of Boulder through their open space acquisition program and this is probably the way the other 20% will be achieved. 2. They are concerned about the title being the Boulder Valley Compo plan as opposed to the City of Boulder Compo plan. Mr. Drumm stated that we show a larger planning area then what the current City is now; that is also how the City of Boulder's plan is. 3. Mr. Drumm pointed out the area where the Boulder Valley plan abuts the City of Louisville plan. He stated that there are no land use conflicts illustrated; however, this might put the City in a position where the City of Boulder goes up to what might be the westerly City limits of the City of Louisville. Louisville has talked to the County planning department and they agree that the area needs more investigation and agreed, tenatively, that this is the conventional need for the urban buffer zone and should perhaps be owned by the County as opposed to being owned by the City of Boulder. Mr. Drumm stated that previously Boulder had agreed to delete the open space link. The City of Louisville's plan shows an open space link going up to the City reservoir; and have agreed to note that the open space line will be provided in the City of Louisville's compo plan. Councilman DelPizzo stated that he felt that the houses on the west side of So. 80th should be in the City of Louisville's plan and not the Boulder Valley compo plan as we are the ones who service the area. Councilman DiLorenzo stated that this has been discussed for some time in the Long Range Planning Commission, and that although Boulder is trying to get it throug~ the County's views are very close to how the City of Louisville feels. There were no more comments; Planner Drumm stated that the feeling of Council will be referred to the County.
