Save SOBO's Stance on the Public Engagement Process for Annexation

11/22/2020

0 Comments

 
​Since we are about in the initial stages of the public engagement processes for the annexation negotiations over CU-South, the undersigned community members, who represent both Save South Boulder and PLAN-Boulder, felt it important to share with you our concerns that the process outlined is really inadequate, especially given the magnitude of the decision the City needs to make with regard to CU's demans for annexation.  We have long been disatisfied with past engagement activities, and we felt we should both outline the bases for that disatisfaction and also make suggestions for how the activities might be improved--especially given the constraints imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic.  We do understand that everyone is laboring under extreme difficulties right now;  that's why some of our suggestions address those constraints specifically.

Attached is our critique of the public participation process being planned by the City's public engagement staff.  It was stimulated by our viewing a diagram outlining the activities and stages in the participation process. That diagram is being used to explain to neighborhood groups how the process works. I am sorry that I can't attach the diagram;  I've only seen it in hard copy.   If there are other people on the staff that you think should see the document, please let me know.
