Protect Gunbarrel's Local Wildlife Through the Creation of a Greater Twin Lakes Open Space - Stop City Annexation and High Density Growth

Owls are people too. Please don't take their hunting ground.

no growth at all!

Just fair to homeowners to be consistent and not affect their valuations

Allow us to have our community and please listen to our needs!!

I oppose this development.

So many reasons this housing plan is not a good one - from environmental issues to the lack of infrastructure in the area to properly support new residents. By not distributing low-income housing throughout Boulder, those living in the proposed "projects" type of environment will live with a stigma and the much-needed diversity in Boulder will once again be thwarted. C'mon Boulder! We can do better than this!

Simply no! No more steamrolling local residents, poor planning prior to land purchase by the city (ie no hydrology report?), and busing Boulder's problems out to Boulder county.

Please protect this open space greenbelt. It is difficult for the residents here to have any voice. We are doing our best to fight big money interests here.

Too many rentals designed to be built without good planning. What about a junior high school in the area instread.

I do not support developing this area. You are just putting developments in every piece of open land with now sense of design, community or space.

Protect Gunbarrel's local wildlife--stop city annexation!

Owl Preserve!!!

It is deeply concerning to me, as a social worker who has worked in Chicago, Denver and Boulder that this relatively remote area is designated for a housing project without any partnership with local services, transportation, local employment and community resources. Best Practices for affordable housing in communities demands adhering to a full community integration or the great idea of affordable housing will go the way of bussing, another well intended but sadly misguided, costly and poorly implemented attempt at integrating all citizenry into the community.

I have used this open space for over 26 years. . The change of use that the City and County of Boulder want to do this area is irresponsible without regard to the wildlife and the residents in the area. High density housing will be problematic and raise the level of crime, trash, drainage and wear and tear of the open space as we know it today. Our home is located on Bugle Court and lies in Area LOB Very limited use, stating that homes with basements will flood. This has been the case for our household in four different occasions. I am concerned how water flow from a new development will affect our current storm sewer system and water table. I do have a sump pump in my basement that pumps often. This land should not be disturbed.

Open space for wildlife to live is just as important as any human endeavor for survival. Wildlife cannot speak up, so we must speak for them. Do not kill off the wildlife.

I use the open space here 4-5 times per week.

Plans to develop these parcels are ill-conceived and impossible to justify for reasons stated in the petition.

The open space serves the wildlife and relieves the density in Gunbarrel , not to mention once units are built the traffic will be horrendous and unsafe for children riding bikes the neighborhood , say goodbye to the great horned owl and grey and blue herring . We do not need more housing in twin lakes !!!!

Development of this land would be detrimental to the wildlife in the area, particularly the Great Horned Owls.

Any development on these parcels is disruptive to water tables, wildlife, current taxpayers, and the overall residential feel of the neighborhood.
