A
D
Look
at
this

is
helping

become
more
efficient
and
reducing
their
waste,
where
there
is

diverting
more

on
februari
15th
outstanding
community
members
were
recognized
for
their
contributions
in
making
Boulder
a
safer
place.
A
12
heroic
older
residents
were
given
an
outstanding
citizenship
award
at
a
ceremony
at
the
public
safety
building,
though
award
recipients
contributions
ranged
from
actions
like
pulling
a
man
out
of
a
burning
car
to
giving
police
case
solving
tips
in
a
recent
homicide
case,
I
caught
up
with
outstanding
citizenship
award
recipients,
Maddy
more
and
Nick
tarnowski.
After
the
ceremony,
they
were
recognized
along
with
tyler
adams
in
jos
and
egg
for
tackling
suspect,
Galen
burka
after
they
saw
him
attempting
to
strangle
a
woman.
E
You
don't
really
think
about
it.
You
just
go
and
do
what
you're
supposed
to
do.
We
came
around
the
corner
to
hear
screams
and
pretty,
like
you
know
loud
screaming,
from
these
two
girls.
We
came
around
the
corner
and
saw
them
being
assaulted
by
this
gentleman
Galen
burka
who
I
guess
he
was
24
in
a
CU
student.
We
didn't
know
that
at
the
time,
but
basically
between
the
three
of
us.

A
12
community
members
were
recognized
for
their
brave
efforts.
Last
Wednesday,
along
with
boulder
police
department
employees,
who
have
demonstrated
above
and
beyond
day-to-day
service,
including
the
Purple
Heart
and
life-saving
awards,
it's
official
trader
joes,
is
coming
to
boulder.
The
community
has
been
buzzing
about
the
popular
california-based
grocer,
opening
its
doors
in
Colorado.
A
For
some
time
and
last
week,
officials
with
the
company
announced
that
boulders
29th
street
will
be
the
stores
first
spot
in
Colorado
I
spoke
to
city
of
Boulder
economic
vitality,
coordinator
Liz,
Hansen,
about
how
she
expects
trader
joe's
will
be
received
by
the
community
and
local
businesses.
We've.
G
Heard
a
lot
of
excitement
about
this
new
retailer
coming
Boulder
has
the
highest
per
capita
consumption
of
organic
foods
in
North
America,
so
with
that
type
of
population.
Here
we
have
a
lot
of
grocery
stores
that
are
currently
here,
both
local
and
national
retailers.
We
expect
that
trader
joes
will
add
to
that
mix
and
Boulder
really
supports
both
our
local
and
national
retailers.
So
when
trader
joes
comes
here,
they'll
bring
specialty
products
that
will
be
added
to
the
they're
available.
A
A
It's
been
three
months
since
the
Broadway
Euclid
construction
project
began,
and
last
week
the
project
reached
a
major
milestone.
Concrete
was
poured
at
the
site,
creating
two
new
lanes
on
Broadway
the
job
which
involves
the
creation
of
a
pedestrian
underpass
at
the
Broadway
Euclid
intersection
is
currently
and
Phase
two
construction
with
two
more
phases
to
come
phase.
A
F
Project
has
improvements
for
just
about
every
mode.
The
university
is
on
one
side
of
broadway
here:
university
hill
elementary
school
is
on
the
other
side
of
broadway,
and
broadway
itself
carries
20,000
25,000
vehicles
a
day,
so
there's
a
lot
of
activity
of
folks
on
their
on
their
bikes,
folks
on
foot
people
coming
and
going
in
the
buses
and
those
folks
in
their
cars.
So
just
about
every
conflict
that
those
different
modes
have
historically
had
here
will
be
much
improved
in
really
trying
to
smooth
all
of
those
different
conflicts
out
in
their
own
particular
way.
Fella.
A
Says
that
one
phase
three
construction
begins
next
month,
the
vehicular
detour
will
be
moved
to
the
other
side
of
broadway,
where
the
new
lanes
were
just
paved
good
weather
has
made
it
easy
to
keep
the
project
on
schedule.
The
Broadway
Euclid
construction
project
is
expected
to
be
completed
in
mid-august.
A
The
measure
was
passed:
622
with
council
members,
lisa
moore
zell
and
making
kohls
opposing
the
change.
That's
all
the
time
we
have
for
this
week.
