Boulder County Adopts $745 Million Budget for 2026 Near Niwot
The Board of County Commissioners has adopted the 2026 Boulder County budget totaling $745 million. Key investments include $42 million for affordable housing initiatives, $28 million for transportation infrastructure, and $15 million for wildfire mitigation and climate resilience programs.
The application deadline is May 8, 2026. Late applications will be accepted on a space-available basis. Incomplete applications will be returned with a list of missing items. Average review time is 10 business days.

This project contributes to those goals through energy efficiency improvements, renewable energy integration, and reduced vehicle miles traveled.
