Month: November 2016

Hi all,

Good news on the Slackining front in Boulder!  We’re making good progress.  Please see below a recent email from the city.

——————-

Good evening,

It’s been a couple of months since we last talked and I would like to update everyone on the status of the slacklining ruling.  After several rounds of reviews and discussions, the final ruling has been routed for signatures and to begin the public comment period.  I will let everyone know when the comment period begins and next steps.  At this point we need to hear from the community about any concerns and questions that might need to be resolved.  Again, I’d like to thank everyone for their involvement in this process and patience.

In the meantime, we are currently updating the City’s website with a page related to slacklining that will discuss the rules and provide information about the location.  We are also working on an app that will allow folks to view detailed maps from portable devices and click on specific trees to better understand the locations within the parks.

Lastly, pending final approval of the ruling, we would like to work with you all in getting the word out to the community and perhaps organizing an informal celebration at one of the parks.  More details to come, but just wanted to get the update out.  Please let me know who would like to assist in the outreach, etc.?

Best,
