Published 1 year, 2 months ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for January 31, 2025. Today marks the last day for property owners affected by the Marshall Fire to apply for the Boulder County Use Tax Rebate. If you're rebuilding on your affected property and have an approved building permit, make sure to submit your application by the end of the day to take advantage of this rebate. The program has already provided over $1.91 million to 563 homes destroyed by the fire, offering 100% of county use tax paid at the time the permit was issued, with maximum caps of $3,500 for permits issued in 2022 and $4,200 for those issued in 2023-25[1][5].
Moving on to more festive news, Boulder has been buzzing with events this month. The Snow Much Fun Light Displays, which illuminated the Civic Area and downtown Boulder with hundreds of thousands of colorful LED lights, recently concluded on January 18. If you missed it, don't worry; there are plenty of upcoming events to look forward to. This weekend, you can explore guided hikes, CU seminars, concerts, and live performances. Check out the event calendar to see what's happening and sign up for the newsletter for regular announcements[3].
Looking ahead to February, mark your calendars for Winter Bike to Work Day on February 14. This beloved event encourages commuters to ditch their cars and ride their bikes around town, enjoying free breakfast and merchandise stations along the way. And if you're a basketball fan, don't miss the University of Colorado Men's and Women's Basketball games, which continue through March[2].

The Boulder International Film Festival will take place from March 13-16, showcasing films and filmmakers from around the world. And for families, the Tulip Fairy & Elf Festival on April 27 promises a fun-filled day with scavenger hunts and prizes amidst the beautiful tulips on Pearl Street[2].
