Boulder County has been awarded a $1.2 million federal grant to install electric vehicle charging stations at county facilities and public trailheads. The project will add 40 Level 2 chargers and 8 DC fast chargers at 12 locations across the county, with priority given to underserved communities.<\/p>\n
The project includes improvements along CO-72 Peak-to-Peak Highway between Boulder and the intersection with SH-7 \/ Ute Highway. Construction is scheduled to begin in June 2026 with completion expected within 12 months.<\/p>\n
Affordable housing remains the top priority identified in the 2025 Community Survey. Boulder County’s Worthy Cause program has funded 1,544 affordable housing units since its inception, with 158 additional units in the development pipeline.<\/p>\n
Environmental review of the project area near CO-72 Peak-to-Peak Highway found 10 sensitive species and 3 wetland areas requiring mitigation. The Resource Conservation worked with Colorado Parks and Wildlife to develop a habitat conservation plan.<\/p>\n
Residents in the Boulder area should note that service boundaries may differ from city limits. For properties in unincorporated Boulder County, contact Resource Conservation at (303) 441-4226 to verify eligibility and requirements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
