Commissioners Proclaim March as Women’s History Month Near Lyons

The Boulder County Board of Commissioners has proclaimed March 2026 as Women’s History Month, recognizing the contributions of women leaders, activists, and community builders throughout Boulder County’s history. Special events and exhibitions will be held at libraries and community centers throughout the month.

Affordable housing remains the top priority identified in the 2025 Community Survey. Boulder County’s Worthy Cause program has funded 1,594 affordable housing units since its inception, with 101 additional units in the development pipeline.

The project includes improvements along Sunshine Canyon Drive between Superior and the intersection with Niwot Road. Construction is scheduled to begin in October 2026 with completion expected within 10 months.

Eligibility

Residents in the Superior area should note that service boundaries may differ from city limits. For properties in unincorporated Boulder County, contact Public Works at (303) 441-3236 to verify eligibility and requirements.

Safety data from the Superior area shows 40 reported incidents in the past 12 months, a 24% change from the previous year. The Sheriff’s Office has increased patrols along Sunshine Canyon Drive and added community outreach programs in response to resident feedback.

Next Steps

Eligible participants include Boulder County residents with household incomes at or below 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). For a family of four, this is approximately $116,000 per year. Applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis.

A community information session will be held at the Superior library on Thursday, May 7 at 6:00 PM. Translation services in Spanish and Nepali will be available. The session will also be livestreamed on the Boulder County YouTube channel.
