The mission of Better Boulder is to create vibrant, livable, and connected communities through land use planning and policy. With a bright look forward and seeking ways to have a positive impact on our community, we offer congratulations to all candidates that won seats on City Council: Mark Wallach, Matt Benjamin, Nicole Speer, Lauren Folkerts and Tara Winer. 

We also wish to congratulate also all those that dedicated the last year to their community as a candidate and look forward to seeing them continue their dedication in other ways.

We love Boulder. There is so much potential for our city going forward and it will take us all as stakeholders in the city’s success to come together to fulfill that potential. Everyone needs to be represented and heard. It’s possible.
