Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025.

Starting off today, Boulder is taking a big leap toward shaping the future of how we get around town. The county has launched its first-ever strategic transit plan called “Linking Boulder County,” and they’re asking for your input. The goal is a more coordinated, accessible, and sustainable transit network—think improved bus service, maybe even a Northwest Rail Line to connect Boulder with Denver and Longmont. If you care about how we all move through the city, now’s your chance to speak up. Residents have until September 19th to join the community advisory committee and help make our transit system work for everyone.

Turning to transportation news on the streets, drivers heading between Boulder and Longmont should keep an eye out for more speed cameras. Local officials are expanding the use of automated speed enforcement, meaning a ticket in your mailbox could be the new normal for heavy-footed commuters. And in the world of electric vehicles, there’s been a rush at local dealerships as folks hurry to take advantage of EV and e-bike tax credits before they’re cut in half next year. Over at Boulder Nissan, the race is on to clear the lot of electric SUVs while the deals still last.

It’s not all policy today—it’s also about things to do and ways to connect. Early risers enjoyed Yoga For All this morning at Chautauqua’s Academic Hall, and the energy was great. If you missed it, keep an eye out for more sessions. Fashion-forward locals showed up at The Swap this morning at Galvanize Boulder, a streetwear event all about style without the waste. And if creativity is your thing, the Dairy Arts Center is hosting Bad Shabbos this afternoon at 4:30, a unique gathering with local flair.

On the civic side, the Boulder County Board of Adjustment meets at 4 p.m. today. Whether you’re invested in land use or just curious about local government, these meetings are open to public participation in person and online.

For those looking to boost their financial know-how, there’s a Building a Banking Relationship workshop at 5:30 p.m. tonight—completely virtual and designed to help you navigate everything from choosing a bank to understanding your options.

In other news, the Boulder County Commissioners just approved a new farm-style dog kennel out near Niwot Road, adding a fresh resource for local dog owners. And for those who rely on local health care, Clinica Family Health & Wellness will soon be moving their Boulder acute care services to a new facility in Louisville, aiming to provide even better access.

That’s what’s happening in Boulder today, from new transit visions to ways you can get involved, stay healthy, and have some fun. This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
