This year we will be exploring ways to streamline this process and ensure it is <br />responsive to your community's needs and desires. Boulder County staff will introduce this <br />topic to the Consortium of Cities Board on Aug. 3, 2022. In the coming months, Boulder <br />County staff will reach out to each community to explore ideas for updating this outreach <br />process, with the goal of going back to the Consortium Board in early 2023 with some <br />concrete suggestions. <br />Please return Attachment A: 2020 Municipal Open Space and Trails Request Form, bX <br />Friday, February 10, 2023. Our goal is to return responses to you by July 2023. <br />As always, County Staff is available to meet with municipal staff, advisory board, and <br />decision makers in whatever configuration best meets your needs. We welcome this <br />opportunity to continue partnering with you on open space acquisitions and trail projects. <br />Sincerely, <br />ligoyw�a� <br />Therese Glowacki Tina Nielsen <br />Director Special Projects Manager <br />Attachments <br />A. 2020 Community Open Space and Trails Request Form <br />B.
