Tuesday, July 19 BOULDER The Boulder City Council will hold a hearing on
Boulder's Energy Future & municipalization. In council chambers SW corner
Broadway & Canyon 5 PM - ? It is VERY important that we get as many
supporters as possible to come. Municipalization (taking over the electric
system) sets the stage for a quick implementation of a cleaner, reliable,
more local, energy future with much lower emissions than Xcel can provide.
You don't need to speak - just showing up makes a difference. If speaking
keep it short. Don't try to say everything. Very likely to be limited to 2
minutes. Wear a sunshine yellow shirt. Council packet for this meeting can be
