Do we want this:		Or this:

More sprawl, more traffic, more flood impacts, less wetlands. That's what we'll get if the City of Boulder allows the development of 134 homes on the Hogan/Pancost property. We are a group of residents in South Boulder that have organized to stop this development.

What's new The City of Boulder Planning Board reviewed the Hogan/Pancost Concept Plan on January 19th. The turn out was amazing! There were over 100 people in attendance - a standing room only crowd. A large number of thoughtful and fact-based presentations were made by concerned neighbors. We have made them available here. A big thank you to everyone who presented and attended. The Planning Board requested that we provide them with further documentation about what we were presenting. Much of what we presented has been documented for years on this website. We will be providing updated information and screencasts of the presentations in the coming weeks. First up - updated information on the wetlands presentations issue. A Groundwater 102 presentation was given at the January 5th 2012 Planning Board. This discussed construction impacts on groundwater. There is a new Hogan/Pancost Facebook page. New information has been found regarding the promise by the City to residents to not have Kewanee become a through street. We have posted an article giving an overview of some of the development issues at the Boulder Blueline site.
