Background

The Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan is the City of Boulder’s Comprehensive plan guiding land use, development and community priorities for the City of Boulder. The city and county share a common goal of directing urban development to urban areas and preserving the distinction between the urban nature of the city and the rural character of the county.

Since the 1970s, the City of Boulder and Boulder County have jointly adopted the Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan (BVCP) in acknowledgement that the city and county must work together to achieve this outcome. The BVCP also provides the city and the county the opportunity to identify other areas where collaboration may be needed to achieve a common goal.

The BVCP is currently undergoing a major update to respond to changing conditions and community needs, in order to ensure the plan remains relevant in its guidance. A major update occurs every ten years.

Agenda and format subject to change

Please note that the commissioners’ agenda is subject to change. To receive updates to the agenda, please subscribe to the Boulder County Commissioners Agenda list.

The commissioners retain the right to switch all hearings and meetings to in-person only instead of hybrid if technical difficulties arise.
