Boulder Landlords: Boulder City Council to Hear Comments on May 18

Posted by Phil Boren on Friday, April 23rd, 2010 at 5:05pm.

boulder landlords, boulder tenants, boulder real estate, boulder homes for sale, buying a boulder home, selling a boulder homeBoulder landlords and tenants have another opportunity to make their voices heard regarding the City of Boulder's proposed new energy-effeciency guidelines.  The City of Boulder's planning board unamiously approved the draft and, if approved by the city council, these new regulations will force Boulder landlords to spend an estimated $675 to $3,200 per unit in order to obtain a rental license.

With nearly 20,000 rental units in Boulder (most of which do not currently meet these proposed new standards), the potential cost of compliance to property owners is staggering, but this is part of Boulder's commitment to reduce energy consumption.  Landlords in Boulder have opposed the new regulations because of the cost, and tenants stand to get hit with corresponding rent increases.  There are modifications and alternatives on the table; if you or someone you know will be affected by these proposed new regulations, please plan to attend the public meeting that's scheduled for Tuesday, May 18th at 6:00 pm at the Municipal Building in Boulder, at 1777 Broadway.  You can read more about this issue using this link.

If you have any questions or if you would like a map to the hearing location, please feel free to contact us.
