Description
This week on Inside Boulder News: University Hill begins installing pedestrian-scale street lights; the Boulder Economic Summit shines light on Boulder’s booming economy; and Boulder’s best practices in handling urban wildlife will be shared nationwide.
A
A
B
Are
getting
started
with
installing
the
lighting
this
week,
it's
very
exciting,
to
see
shovels
in
the
ground
on
a
number
of
projects.
The
key
corridors
are
11th
street
from
downtown
up
to
the
hill,
and
then
we
have
spines
that
come
off
of
that
connecting
eleventh
Street
into
the
commercial
area
and
to
the
Cu
campus.
University
Hill
has
some
of
the
densest
recover
of
any
areas
and
bolder,
and
it's
really
nice
to
have
all
the
trees.
It's
very
beautiful,
but
one
of
the
downsides
is
that
at
night
it
can
be
particularly
dark.
B
So
for
years,
people
have
been
planning
for
how
we
could
address
this
and
make
it
safer
for
Hill
residence
and
for
students,
especially
folks,
coming
from
downtown
at
night
to
make
it
safely
and
comfortably
home.
And
now,
with
the
passage
of
the
community
culture
and
Safety
Act,
that
Boulder
voters
adopted
in
2014,
we
now
have
the
funds
to
do
the
installation
on
a
number
of
projects,
including
new
pedestrian
scale
lights
in
the
hill
neighborhoods.
B
Some
of
the
other
projects
we're
looking
forward
to
seeing
being
completed
this
year,
are
the
installation
of
an
irrigation
system
in
the
hill
commercial
area.
This
is
going
to
allow
us
to
have
more
year-round,
landscaping
and
more
sustainable
landscaping.
We're
going
to
be
planting
a
number
of
trees.
We
had
to
remove
some,
unfortunately,
because
of
emerald
ash
borer,
and
that
will
give
us
an
opportunity
to
have
more
thriving
trees
when
we
put
the
new
ones.
A
In
construction
will
last
through
the
summer,
with
the
new
street
lights,
making
their
debut
by
the
time
students
return
to
see
you
in
the
fall
for
more
information
about
the
hill,
pedestrian
lighting
projects
or
a
community
culture
and
safety
projects

city's

The
2016
Boulder
economic
summit
took
place
this
week,
the
event
focused
on
boulders
peak
economy
and
the
challenges
that
come
with
it.
So.
C
Every
year,
the
economic
summit
explores
a
different
theme,
and
this
year
we're
focusing
on
what
does
it
mean
when
a
community,
like
Boulder,
may
be
approaching
a
peak
performing
economy?
Many
people
in
the
community
are
talking
today
about.
Is
this
a
boom?
Is
this
a
bubble?
Are
we
starting
to
see
an
economy
perform
in
a
way
that
is
historic,.
D
I
know
that
so
many
of
us
are
excited
about
where
we
are
now
in
terms
of
boulders
economic
vitality,
but
we
also
look
in
her
rearview
mirror
at
where
we
came
from
in
the
very
challenging
period
we
went
through
through
the
big
recession
and
on
everybody's
mind.
I
know,
is
this
anxiety
about
well
gee,
you
know
is
this:
are
we
at
the
peak
is
this?
Is
this
type
of
economic
vitality
going
to
continue,
and
so
what
can
we
expect
for
the
future?
And
how
do
we
prepare
for
a
change
if
it
should
occur?
There.
C
Are
many
many
events
and
programs
out
there
where
the
aerospace
industry
gets
together
or
bioscience
companies
are
getting
together
or
the
natural
products
industry
is
getting
together?
What
we're
trying
to
accomplish
is
sort
of
a
cross-industry
cross-sector
opportunity
for
people
to
to
speak
with
each
other
that
might
not
otherwise
get
that
opportunity
and
really
engage
in
a
community
dialogue
about
a
timely
topic
for.

Economic
Council

for
the
sixth
year
in
a
row
Boulder
startup
week
brought
the
community
together
this
week
for
hundreds
of
free
events.
The
events
are
open
to
everyone
and
are
designed
for
participants
to
network
learn
and
explore
for.
E
F
Ridiculously
easy
to
get
lost
in
the
day-to-day
mundane
asst
of
where
you
live
or
where
you
work,
but
boulders
startup
week
is
a
chance
to
get
away
from
that,
and
not
just
talk
about
what
you
do
but
really
engage
with
others
and
hear
what
they're
doing
and
through
that.
You
form
friendships.
There's.
G
I
started
startup
weekend
2010
with
this
idea
that
really
the
entrepreneur
should
leave
their
own
conference
and
if
we
wanted
to
have
the
entrepreneurs
design
their
perfect
conference.
It
like
this,
where
every
place
is
the
hallway.
We
have
people
speaking
that
really
want
to
share
and
give
back
to
the
community
and
it's
free
and
open
to
the
public.
We.
F
G
A
Great
things
connect
with
boulders
startup
week
year
round
by
visiting
their
website.
This
week
the
Humane
Society
of
the
United
States
launched
a
new
program
that
will
ultimately
share
boulders
best
practices
in
dealing
with
urban
wildlife
nationwide
Boulder
was
chosen
as
one
of
five
communities
across
the
nation
for
how
it
deals
with
urban
wildlife
conflicts
and
humane
and
effective
ways.
The.
H
Wild
neighbors
program
is
a
new
program
that
really
embraces
humane
treatment
towards
wildlife
and
resolving
human
wildlife,
complex,
humanely
and
effectively,
and
the
city
of
Boulder
is
really
a
leader
in
in
that
regard.
They
already
have
in
place
a
lot
of
very
progressive
wildlife
policies.
They
have
an
urban
wildlife
management
plan.
They
have
some
really
great
policies
for
bears,
including
you
know,
bear-proof
trash
cans.
They
have
a
leash
law
for
pets
which
is
really
important
for
preventing
conflicts
with
coyotes
and
other
wildlife.
H
It's
illegal
to
feed
wildlife
in
the
city
of
boulder,
which
is
really
important
for
preventing
conflicts
with
wildlife.
They
designated
a
bird
sanctuary,
it's
illegal
to
poison
wildlife,
there's
so
many
reasons
why
Boulder
is
a
leader
in
this
area,
so
in
the
country.
So
we
want
to
learn
from
how
they
put
these
policies
in
place.
We
want
to
learn
from
how
they
educate
the
public,
how
they
communicate
to
the
public
the
best
ways
to
solve
problems
with
wildlife,
and
we
want
to
use
that
information
to
help
other
communities
across
the
country
put
in
place.
I
It's
a
great
opportunity
for
one
for
us
to
share
our
techniques
and
what
we
currently
do
with
nuisance,
wildlife
or
wildlife
in
our
urban
areas.
And
it's
also
a
good
opportunity
for
us
to
have
the
ability
to
continue
to
be
progressive
and
have
the
those
people
at
HSUS
that
have
all
the
knowledge
of.
What's
going
on
and
what's
effective
for
us
to
be
able
to
implement
on
our
current
program
within.
