We’re in the home stretch thanks to all of you! This Tuesday, August 13th, Longmont City Council will be reviewing the text of an ordinance that would put the permanent extension of the City’s Open Space Sales Tax on the ballot this November. The Council will then vote to either approve the ordinance, amend the ordinance, or not approve the ordinance.
Stand With Our St. Vrain Creek is asking that City Council approve the ordinance. We’ll be attending the meeting and speaking during Public Invited to Be Heard urging them to do so.
If you value Open Space and want the City to be able to fund new acquisitions and, more importantly, maintain its natural areas, please consider attending Tuesday’s City Council meeting and wearing green to show your support for the ballot measure.
We want all Longmont citizens to have the chance to vote on this issue.
If we’re not able to attend the meeting, how helpful would it be to email our City Council members with a request to support this?
Hi Pat, I’m sorry I missed seeing this! Thankfully Council voted on the 13th to put the sales tax on the ballot!
