GCSD Offers Construction of New CCAW Free Meals Animal Facility in Torrey is Underway to Students from September Through December 2020 GARFIELD COUNTY When considering that old adage that "there is no such thing as a free lunch," Garfield County School District begs to differ.

Beginning on September 1, school meals (breakfast and lunch) will be provided—free of charge—to Garfield County students.

This service will be offered to all students, Kindergarten through 12th grade, until December 18, 2020, though this offer will not extend to those students who are home-schooled or to younger, unenrolled siblings.

Parents who have already paid for meals through their school lunch account, may be reimbursed for these payments, and to-go lunches will be provided for children whose parents wish for them to eat at home.

For questions about the Free Meal Program, contact Food Service Director Laura Adams at 435-676-8225.

Groups: Utah Water Pipeline Project Unnecessary, Dangerous

TrekandphoTo/adoBe

sTock

Water from the Upper Basin of the Colorado River is stored in Lake Mead near Las Vegas. A white ring around the banks is evidence of a 20-year drought that has left the reservoir less than half full.

ST. GEORGE - A coalition of 15 conservation groups says a Utah plan to divert water from Lake Powell is unnecessary, overpriced and endangers the region's already-depleted water supply.

Representatives from the six states that surround Utah sent a letter to Congress this week, threatening legal action unless the pipeline is put on hold. The $2 billion project would pull 86,000 acre-feet of water each year from the upper Colorado River basin and send it to a reservoir near St. George in Washington County. But Zachary Frankel, executive director of the Utah Rivers Council, said the Colorado River just doesn't have any more water to give.

"Since climate change

is reducing the snowpacks of the Colorado," he said, "most states believe that there is no more water available in the Colorado River to develop that isn't already allocated to existing users."

Backers of the project have said Washington County needs the additional water to fuel economic growth in the area. Frankel disagreed, saying per-capita water consumption in St. George is twice that of other cities in the West.

Although Congress may have to approve the project, Frankel said the federal government wants to get the deal done before the next president —whoever that may be— takes office.

Utah Rural Summit & Southern Utah Speed Pitch Helping Rural Business Dreams Come True

CEDAR CITY - The Utah Rural Summit, currently the longest running rural economic and community development summit in the nation, returns to the campus of Southern Utah University on Oct. 6-7, 2020 bringing business, education, government and politicians together to collaborate and innovate.

And making its way back to the conference stage is the Southern Utah Speed Pitch competition, where rural Utah entrepreneurs pitch business ideas and compete for prize money, resources and business support.

Also this year, Utah Rural Summit announced a new partnership between Southern Utah University, The Larry H. & Gail Miller Center for Entrepreneurship, Utah’s Governor Office, State Bank of Southern Utah, and Snow College to expand entrepreneurial development throughout more rural areas of the state.

“I’ve challenged our state to work in a unified way to ensure we added 25,000 new jobs in rural Utah,” said Utah Governor Gary Herbert.

“The Utah Rural Summit has shown that it’s the place where we are seeing innovation towards this goal. The Southern Utah Speed Pitch is Rural Summit Cont'd on page 4

Who is Donald Trump?

Trump is the most corrupt and malevolent POTUS in American History, but let me count the ways: He is a “billionaire” who hides his tax returns and A “genius” who hides his college grades and A “businessman” who bankrupted three casinos and lost over $1B in ten yrs and

A “playboy” who pays for sех.

He is a “Christian” who doesn’t go to church or have any concept of Christian values.

He is a “philanthropist” who defrauds charity and He is an “innocent man” who refuses to testify and A “president” who takes

no responsibility.

He claims to be a “tough, strong man“ who wears makeup and hairspray while being grossly overweight and A “deal maker” who has yet to close a deal.

He is a"patriot" who dodged the draft and calls American service men and women "losers" and "suckers"

for fighting and dying for our country And he wants 'Law and Order' to describe his campaign, while supporting White Supremacist violence and encouraging people to break the law by voting twice.

The Ongoing Conflict Regarding Masks The ongoing conflict regarding masks is perpetuated by individuals who have forgotten (or refuse to acknowledge) that in any society there must be a social contract among the members of that

society. We all have certain duties as part of our belonging to the society in which we live. One of those duties is the respect for our fellow citizens and adhering to the courtesies and laws that protect all mem-

bers of that society.

To resist the wearing of masks during a pandemic when it has been proven to be effective in the prevention of the spread of the disease under the guise of protecting

one’s freedom is simply selfish, juvenile and disrespectful, and irresponsible. Sounds like our current president.

Tom Stechschulte, Hatch

A simple concept. We all understand the concept, yet it seems that in public it is not practiced. Look at how we treat each other on the highway. There is an even better example, how we don’t wear masks in public. The act of wearing a mask is one of giving to others. It has little protection for ourselves, wearing a mask is an act of caring for everyone else.

The concept of infection from others is and has been an issue in public health since society began talking about it. We have gone through pandemics before, 1918 flu, with success introducing mask wearing. Yes, there were protests from segments of society against mask wearing, mandatory or voluntary, representing a small percentage of the population. The majority of people donned facial coverings and the 1918 flu pandemic subsided in the United States.

Why is it that some do not wear masks in public?

A simple question, one with general answers: I forgot, I am not worried that I will catch the virus, mask wearing is a political statement and I am not going to let the government tell me what to do.

Nothing wrong with absent-minded behavior, it happens to all of us. A bit worrisome is the public lack of understanding of the virus and that the virus is infecting millions of people. True, the vast majority of people in the United States have not been subjected to the infection. The point that is not stressed is that you could be infected without you even having a clue that it had happened. Once infected, you have no prediction on how it will affect you; prolonged sickness, associated with post infection organ damage, to death. The way you avoid getting infected is being around other people, in

a public place, where everyone is wearing a mask.

The act of wearing a mask is not akin to flaunting the Confederate battle flag.

Wearing a mask is not partisan. It is a caring act. Wearing a mask is a token or our respect for each other. The thought that the government is controlling us is worrisome.

Yet the government has instituted many mandates without protest, such as stopping when there is red light, not drinking and driving or not harming others. As a society at large, we respect these laws because we see the greater benefit for us all. Wearing a mask is exactly the same thing as protecting society from harm.

We all need to work together to reduce this infectious disease’s hold on our lives. For the time being, the only avenue to less infections are wearing a mask in public, interact socially at a distance and practice good personal

hygiene. In the future, when an effective vaccine is developed, take it. The medical experts have stated that at least 70% of the population will have to become immune to the virus for us to beat this beast.

Vaccines have been and will continue to be society’s best, long-term defense on pandemic episodes. With each new viral outbreak, we all need to be responsible to ourselves, family, friends and all of society. This is simply accomplished by reducing the probability of transmitting the virus; mask wearing, minimizing close social interactions and habitually tracking our hygiene.

Remember the Golden Rule; treat others as you would like others to treat you.

Wear a mask.

9/11 Firefighters Visit the Broken Spur in Torrey

Garfield County Search and Rescue Locates Overdue Hiker

GARFIELD COUNTY - Garfield County Search and Rescue, along with the Department of Public Safety Helicopter, were able to locate a 67 year old male individual who had gone hiking, starting from the Boulder Airport into the Death Hollow area and Sand Creek trails.

The brother of the hiker contacted dispatch, stating that his brother was overdue.

Deputy Dunton and the Department of Public Service Helicopter began searching on Sunday the 6th of September. Due to weather, the helicopter had to stop searching for the individual that day, but Deputy Dunton, along with another deputy, continued to search for that individual.

On September 9, the Department of Public Safety Helicopter came back to help search and were able to find the individual, who was hypothermic at the time.

The Bristlecones (Guitarists Robert Marc, Don Gomes, and Barry Scholl, with Brian Doubek on drums).

TORREY - The Entrada Institute, ever eager to bring community together through cultural events, has found clever workarounds to share performances and activities during the COVID pandemic. Last Saturday’s Blues and Views concert at Robber’s Roost featured a live performance by the Bristlecones. Guitarists Robert Marc, Don Gomes, and Barry Scholl, with Brian Doubek on drums offered an hour long session of blues numbers, which was followed by another livestreaming concert of the Delta Sonics, from Denver. An audience of viewers on the lawn (temperatures taken, masks largely intact), and an audience on Facebook shared the livestreaming event.

Next up on Entrada’s virtual lineup is this week’s Heritage Starfest, Friday and Saturday, September 18 and 19. Hosted with Capitol Reef National Park and the Clark Planetarium, participants can watch videos online and participate in a live workshop on astrophotography.

"The Trump administration has expedited the permitting for this," he said.

"They're hoping to issue a final EIS right after Thanksgiving, and they want to approve the project on Jan. 19."

Frankel added that, ironically, the project could leave St. George residents unhappy with their water bills.

New Grant Program Available to Support Families Navigating Remote Learning Funding will enable many caring for Utah children to add spots for school-age kids

SALT LAKE CITY With students across the state spending some or all of their school week learning from home, a new grant program will ensure families have child care support.

The School Age Program Grant 2020 provides eligible licensed centers and Department of Workforce Services (DWS)-approved, licenseexempt programs funding to increase their capacity for school-age children.

“We want parents to know there are options available for their families during this non-traditional school year,” said Tracy Gruber, DWS Office of Child Care director. “Because of adjusted school plans due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has become critical that students have a safe, supportive place to be cared for when school is out.”

Applications are now open for the School Age Program Grant 2020. The grants go directly to eligible

licensed centers and DWS-approved, license-exempt programs so they have necessary resources to serve families.

Among other requirements, programs receiving the funding must implement health and safety protocols and practices; meet quality standards; provide regular, formally supervised programs for schoolage children (ages 5-12); ensure group sizes do not exceed 20; and prioritize serving students of essential employees and those who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The grants are made possible by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Child Care and Development Fund.

Additional resources are available to help families with child care, including: • The child care subsidy program, which aids in paying for child care expenses.

The program covers some or all child care costs for eligible families. More information is at jobs.utah.

gov/assistance/index.html.

• Utah’s child care resource and referral system, Care About Childcare, helps families locate child care for their children. More information is at careaboutchildcare.utah.gov or 1-800-670-1552.

• The latest resources and information about child care during COVID-19 at jobs. utah.gov/covid19.

Eligible programs can learn more about the School Age Program Grant 2020 and apply at jobs.utah.gov/ covid19/covidocc.html. Questions and requests for more information can be directed to dws-occafterschoolgrants@ utah.gov.

Parents can find available child care programs at careaboutchildcare.org. Individuals may also apply for income-based child care subsidies at jobs.utah.gov/mycase.

Previous winners include the Mad Freight app for local deliveries and Geode Swimwear, which features modest women’s swimwear. Since last year’s competition, Mad Freight has attracted significant investment and Geode Swimwear is approaching sales of 1,000 units per month.

The 2020 Southern Utah Speed Pitch competition is open to legal residents of Iron, Beaver, Garfield, Juab, Millard, Sanpete, Piute, Wayne, Sevier and Kane Counties and all SUU, Southwest Tech and Snow College students.

“Educating and mentoring entrepreneurs in gaining practical, real-world, business creation experience is at the foundation of our mission,” said Jon Black, SUU Entrepreneur Leadership Council chair. “Working with rural communities through this partnership will enable us to have a greater impact on Utah’s rural economy.”

With the new Snow College partnership, SUU’s Busi-

ness Resource Center, Small Business Development Center, The Larry H. and Gail Miller Center for Entrepreneurship, and SUU’s Entrepreneur Leadership Council will be joining forces with the Snow College GRIT Center for Rural Entrepreneurship, as well as State Bank of Southern Utah who provides branches and resources for small businesses in every participating county.

“This partnership helps State Bank of Southern Utah support the creation of new businesses that will generate jobs and economic development,” said SBSU President and CEO Eric Schmutz. “With representatives from the bank in each participating county, our goal is to help create more jobs and educational opportunities in rural Utah for the families that live here.” For more information about the Utah Rural Summit visit suu. edu/urs.

PHS Sports Sidelines by mack oeTTing

Bobcats come away with cross country wins, Panguitch hosts Sophomore Volleyball Tournament this Saturday, and Bobcat baseball has split wins in home games.

T

he Bobcats really had a great week, starting off with the cross country races. Starting with the middle school girls, Brooke Albrect was 6th, Paisley Henrie was 7th, Hailey Yardley was 8th and Makena Owens was 9th for second place. For the boys, Maddix Johnson was 4th, Burkey Dalton was 5th, Careden Engelstead was 6th, and Shad Partridge was 9th for 1st place.

For the varsity boys, Porter Shoppe ran away from the field and took 1st place. Carter Yardley ran his best race this year, with a third place finish. Tom Marshall finished in 8th place, which gave the Cats three in the top ten. With a 21st place win for Theron Evans, the team came in 2nd place.

At the post office last week, I met one of the coaches for the girls team, and she said

that the girls will win state this year. I wondered about that because they were having trouble finding seven runners to make up a team. Well, boy, was I impressed with the girls team that scored a perfect ten.

Adelde Englestead reminded me of Whit Orton. She was really out ahead in the race, and she is only a 10th grader. But the rest of the team came 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. This was Lacey Marshall, Halle Wilcox and Tabitha Henrie. I can’t ever recall a finish like that. They are going to be tough to beat.

The Lady Cats had a really good week, with two games on the road. They took out Milford in four games and had some really good games. On Friday, they went up to North Sevier—a 2A school—and it went to five games. The Cats came away the winner. Their next game is also away @ Enterprise on the 17th. This Sat-

urday, we will be hosting the Sophomore Tournament. So, come on out and see what the future is going to be in volleyball. Finally, the Cats have a home game, and it is against Piute on the 23rd.

That is a Wednesday, so put it on your calendar. The girls only have one home game left, and that isn’t until October 14 against Valley.

The Bobcat baseball team came away with a split in both home games. They had a win over Bryce Valley and were oh, so close against Piute, coming up on the short end of a three to one loss. The Cats are on the road for the next two games.

They play Valley on the 16th and go out to Green River on the 18th. They do have one more home game on the 23th against Wayne.

CEDAR CITY - Southern Utah University has been awarded a $1 million HRSA federal grant to lead the effort to battle opioid addiction in rural southern Utah. SUU is just one of 116 organizations across the country, and the only one in Utah, to receive the grant issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Along with its private and public sector partners, SUU will pilot a telemedicine program that will provide substance abuse, mental health, and nutritional counseling to Utahns in four rural counties—Garfield, Kane, Piute, and Wayne—suffering from addiction to the pharmaceutical drug.

“In our rural communities we know that stigma, the need to stay employed, and raising your family keeps many people from seeking recovery services,” said Rita Osborn, executive director of SUU’s Utah Center for Rural Health. “Those factors really lend themselves to piloting this project that has in-home

services available. It will allow those who are addicted to keep their jobs, stay in their homes, and avoid the public shaming that often exists when receiving needed treatment.”

SUU established a consortium of companies and public healthcare entities in applying for the federal grant.

Aspire 365, a Salt Lake City-based company will provide counseling services.

Scriptyx, a Californiabased company, will provide the technology platform for telemedicine counseling.

The consortium also includes three rural health care providers: Kane County Hospital, Garfield Memorial Hospital, and Wayne Community Health Clinic. These three facilities will recommend patients for the pilot program.

“Partnering with primary care providers is essential to the success of this new program,” said Kasey Shakespear, SUU’s program director for administering the federal grant. “Not only will they recommend people to

be in the program, but those caregivers will also ensure that a patient’s overall health is taken care of, as well.”

“As we’ve experienced increased numbers of patients presenting with opioid dependence into our ER, we know there’s a critical need for treatment, particularly inpatient rehabilitation,” said Sarah Boone, a social worker at Kane County Hospital.

“Through this HRSA grant, some of our Kane County residents battling addiction may be able to receive vital support that they otherwise wouldn’t have had access to, and we’re grateful to SUU for including us in this important partnership.”

Selecting participants for the new program will begin immediately. Eighteen patients will enter the program, which the federal grant funds for the next three years.

Is a Living Trust Right for You?

t H e

by Jeffery J. mckenna The use of a revocable trust (sometimes referred to as a “living trust” or “family trust”) to plan one’s estate has become very popular. Despite the popularity of the revocable trust, revocable trusts are not without their potential problems.

First, it is important to understand that there is no definitive answer as to whether a trust is necessary. Another estate planner explained that asking whether a revocable trust is good or bad is like asking whether a wrench is good or bad. It depends on what you are trying to accomplish. A trust is just an estate planing tool. Whether it is good or bad depends on your needs and desires.

Although there are many factors to consider in determining whether a revocable trust is right for you, here are a few of the more significant factors: 1. Avoiding Probate. It is true that a properly funded trust avoids probate. If the goal of the client is to avoid probate, it is critical that the trust be properly funded. To "properly fund" a trust, title to all assets and beneficiary designations for insurance

policies and retirement accounts must be reviewed. A properly funded trust avoids probate because the owner of the assets (generally termed the trustor, settlor, grantor or trustmaker in the trust document) conveys ownership from him or herself (in his or her individual capacity) to him or herself as trustee of his or her trust. Probate is avoided because for "probate purposes" the deceased person does not own assets, but, rather, the trustee of the trust owns the assets. It is critical to understand that a revocable trust only avoids probate if the assets have been properly transferred to the trust.

2. Out of State Property.

A revocable trust is especially useful if you own real estate in another state. Real estate in another state generally requires a probate proceeding in that state. If you live in one state but own real estate in another state, your beneficiaries may be required to commence multiple probate proceedings.

This situation can be avoided through the use of a revocable trust.

3. Avoiding Court Appointed Conservatorship. A properly drafted trust should

This would avoid the need for a court appointed conservator for financial matters.

In conclusion, a revocable trust is an important estate planning tool. Depending on your individual situation and desires, you may decide to use a revocable trust as your principal estate planning tool.

As in all estate planning decisions, being educated about your choices is key in deciding whether a revocable trust is right for you.

PANGUITCH - Val Dolph Church, 92, of Panguitch, Utah, died September 11, 2020 at his home. Val was born on April 29, 1928 in Panguitch, Utah, to Rudolph and Kate Heywood Church. He was raised in a loving family with one brother, Clem and two sisters, Winagene Eyre and Kathleen Church. He married Mary Lou Corlett on October 15, 1947 in Pioche, Nevada. The marriage was solemnized in the St. George Temple on December 15, 1951.

Val was an educator, mentor, author, athletic coach, business owner and entrepreneur. He was a man of integrity. Val was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints, serving as a beloved bishop and in many other capacities.

Val provided "Mountains of Memories" and will be greatly missed. He wanted us to "trust in your abilities, help yourself, make your own nest, don’t be whiners or snivelers, use the God-given gifts you have to uplift yourself and the people around you in every way you can. That is from where the joy in life comes."

Val is survived by Mary Lou, his wife of 72 years, 9 children, Valerie (Douglas), Blaine (Helen), David (LisaMichele), Bruce, Kathryn, Carolyn (Robert), Dolph, Richard (Cheryl), Sandra (Dave), and sister Kathleen Church.

FYI PanguItch

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com Well, Utah knows a little bit about what a hurricane feels like. With 100 mile an hour winds in the SLC area, trees were torn down and electrical power was out for some 90,000 people. I wonder if it made them feel like they were on the Gulf Coast. These were winds that were akin to about a category 2 hurricane. Here, we had winds in the 35 mile an hour range, and that was plenty. Pat and I have been putting flags up on Main and Center Street for about ten years, and we usually take them down the day after the holiday. However, we waited until Tuesday afternoon, and what a mistake! The wind had torn a number of the flags off the light posts. Several nice people turned them in to the city hall. Thank you. If you have found any of the missing flags, please turn them in to the city.

Speaking of the Gulf Coast, they are trying to recover from last week's hurricane, and another one is set to hit New Orleans on Tuesday.

It is also a category 2 hurricane. This is the eighteenth hurricane of the season, and they only have four more names to call new storms.

This has only happened once before. When they run out of names, they switch to the Latin alphabet.

Boy, did we have a great car show or what? Our car show put the one in Parowan to shame. We had so many quality cars, and 79 were registered. There were even a number of small trailers from a club. They are so well done on the inside. There were so many great cars that it was impossible to pick a winner.

There was a 40 something Wiley’s that looked brand new, except for the monster engine and the big tires on the back. To me, these vehicles are works of art and are beautiful. I had planned to put my 30 model A pickup in

the show. I tried to get it in the 24th parade. Unfortunately, it had some bad gas in it, and it started to backfire and wouldn’t run. I figured that I had plenty of time to get it running, but I got busy, and it wouldn’t start on Friday. Oh well, next year I should have it running. I loved the band, Main and Center. My favorite singer, Cheryl Church, belted out some great music. I believe Steven Lee is in charge of the show. Great job, my man.

Well, the West Coast is on fire, as is the western part of our country. These fires in California were caused by twelve hundred lightening strikes and have burned over three million acres. Oregon also has giant fires, and 10% of the state has had to be evacuated. The same has happened in the Washington area. There are 30,000 firefighters working these out of control fires.

Utah has sent another fifty brave souls to help out with fires, and they will be away for three weeks and are very much in need.

The expression "a 500 year storm" is losing its meaning. Houston has suffered five of them in five years. Climate disasters of all types inflicted $800 billion in damage during the 2010s, the hottest decade on record. Warming of the planet’s surface causes atmospheric instability that can produce stronger and more frequent storms, while rising ocean temperatures and unusually moist air spawn hurricanes that grow rapidly more powerful.

In Russia this summer, thawing permafrost caused a power plant fuel tank to collapse and spill more than 20,000 tons of diesel into the Ambarnay River. Russia's average temperature was nearly 11 degrees above its January to April normal. In February, Antarctica hit a record 69 degrees, causing a 120 square

mile chunk of glacier to break off (The Week news magazine). Keep those coal trucks running.

With all of the problems in the world, the Coronavirus is still number one. In the U.S., we have 6.5 million cases, and by the end of next week, 200,000 of those will die. For some reason, the president allowed Bob Woodward to record 18 of his interviews with the president. In the interview on February 2, the president told Woodward that he just got a call from the leader of China telling him that this wasn’t any ordinary flu. The president said it was five times worse than even the biggest flu and it was air born and you could get it from someone sneezing or coughing (The president was wrong in how serious the virus is. It is eight times stronger than the flu). However, the president said he didn’t want to alarm the people, causing a panic. How many lives would have been saved if he would have only told the people to wear masks instead of making fun of those smart ones who wore them. The U.S. makes up 4% of the population of the world and has 25% of the COVID-19 cases.

I have become a couch potato watching all of the NBA games. Most of the games are close, and my favorite team with Labron James is still alive

and waiting for the outcome of the Denver versus the Los Angeles Clippers game. The NFL games are now in process, and they aren’t practice games. It seems strange to see them play in empty stadiums. They have been taking a cue from the NBA and are making noises that sound like there is someone there.

College ball is underway, and they are also playing in empty stadiums. BYU was supposed to play Army this weekend, but a number of their players tested positive for the virus, so the game is off.

Our neighbor, Carlotta Johnson—when she heard about the money shortage for the Sub for Santa fund—has made a great effort to help out. She has had three yard sales and has raised enough funds to offset the loss from the Chocolate Fest and the craft fair combined. I think we should get Carlotta a beard, and she could be our Santa this year. This is the 24th year for the Sub for Santa, and, as always, no child in our area will go without Christmas if Santa’s elves let us know who needs help.

Next week will be the end of summer and still no rain and the monsoons deserted us again. Just pray that the fall will be kinder with the moisture.

Boulder Planning: Lee Nellis and design standards for commercial

buildings and revised Table of Uses definitions and edits to the zoning ordinance, public comment on the proposed Hoyt subdivision, ethics overview led by Planning Commission Secretary Peg Smith, and upcoming business for future BoulderPlanning Commission meetings discussed.

Boulder Planning Cont'd from page 1

sioner stated that based on the Utah Handbook for Planning Commissions and Land Use Authorities, if someone knows they have a conflict of interest ahead of a vote, they may also have to recuse themselves from discussion on the matter. Smith then went over the Municipal Officers’ and Employees’ Ethics Act, including that potential conflicts of interests must be disclosed, however,

it is not always a requirement to subsequently recuse oneself. The state recognizes that, particularly in small towns, potential conflicts of

interest are common, however, except in cases of distinct financial gain, recusal may not be necessary.

Upcoming business for the October 8 meeting was discussed. A final update on the Residential Short Term Rental mapping project will occur, as Boulder Town Clerk Michala Alldredge was unable to present due to technical problems during the meeting. The commissioners will also discuss Nellis’ revisions to the Table of Uses and zoning ordinance.

Tom Hoyt updated the commission that they are now aiming for a preliminary

hearing on the proposed subdivision in November, rather than October. Another member of the public asked when newer letters regarding the subdivision would be posted. Smith stated that they have been discussing where to put them on the town website, but they will be made available.

The same commenter then further stated that they do not think that the proposed subdivision is the answer for lower income housing.

The Boulder Planning Commission meets on the second Thursday of every month at 6pm.
