Boulder Smart Regs: Boulder Landlords Get Some Compromises

Boulder Smart Regs: Boulder landlords get some compromises in the final version. Boulder City Council passed the much-debated new "Smart Regs" at the meeting on September 7th, with a final vote expected at the next meeting on September 21st. Rather than being tied to the issuance of rental licenses, the final version will apparently require Boulder landlords to comply with the new energy upgrades on every unit (via a 100-point system), by Januaty 1, 2019. If passed, this will enable owners to implement the required changes over time, rather than right away.
Seen by many as a viable alternative, the required upgrades will still have to be implemented on Boulder rental properties eventually. It remains to be seen whether the extra costs associated with…
Boulder Landlords: Update on Boulder's New SmartRegs
Tuesday, May 25th, 2010 at 1:36pm. 400 Views, 0 Comments.
Boulder Landlords and Tenants: At the last Boulder City Council meeting on May 18th, the city's proposed new "SmartRegs" concerning rental property were discussed. I was a little surprised to hear that many Boulder landlords spoke in favor of the new regulations. Some tenants spoke out about the high cost energy/utilities in Boulder, which really speaks to the heart of this issue. The devil's in the details, though, and implementation might be easier said than done.
In a previous post we discussed some of the details of Boulder's proposed Rental Energy Conservation Ordinance (RECO); prior to the next public hearing, you can also call and email City Council member(s) and let them know your position. Due to the amount of public interest, the discussion…

Boulder, CO landlords and tenants: May 18th at 6:00 at the Municipal Building at 1777 Broadway is your opportunity to voice your opinion about the city's proposed new, so-called "SmartRegs" concerning rental property.

Boulder Landlords: Boulder City Council to Hear Comments on May 18
Friday, April 23rd, 2010 at 5:05pm. 440 Views, 0 Comments.
Boulder 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…

The Boulder rental market may be impacted by proposed new energy-effeciency regulations. The City of Boulder is proposing some changes that have been estimated to cost Boulder landlords anywhere from $17M to as much as $35M to comply with; tenants fear the rent increases that will likely result.
The City of Boulder is holding a public meeting about this issue this Thursday, 4/22, at 6:00 pm at the Municipal Building at 1777 Broadway, in Boulder. If you're potentially impacted by these proposed changes and either support or oppose the proposed changes, this would be a good opportunity to make your voice heard!
