Phenomenal town hall on wildfire tonight by CCOB and North Metro Fire Rescue District! They debriefed on response to the January 5th fire. Their competence and instinct was clear. Excellent job addressing resident concerns; my neighbors and I left feeling relief to have these folks keeping us safe!
I'm so proud to live in a state that wants residents to participate in democracy!
We know that universal mail ballot delivery increases voter turnout, especially for low propensity residents who wouldn't otherwise let their voice be heard [see reference]. We have to protect it! ✊🏻
There's no time like the present to make a plan to reduce outdoor water usage, and this guide has a bunch of resources to help you make your yard work with our climate. We will likely face drought restrictions again this Summer. Use less water, fewer chemicals, and enjoy more happy pollinators! 🐝🦋
The Wildfire Emergency Response and Preparedness Community Town Hall will help you gain the tools you need to stay informed and safe. This event includes a community Q&A to ensure your questions are answered by local experts. All community members are encouraged to attend!
Mark your calendar! The City and County of Broomfield and North Metro Fire Rescue District invite you to a town hall on February 23 6-7:30pm at the Broomfield Auditorium focused on wildfire emergency response, evacuations, and household preparedness.

A giant wall sticky note that reads: Equity is a potluck bursting with diverse contributions: everyone contributes, no one is the star, the collective creates fulfillment that an individual cannot. #tasteslikegravy
I spend a lot of time thinking about how to make my community stronger. Here's a silly TBT: an assignment to craft a catchy social post to explain equity. Mission accomplished??

Your ballot will be hitting your mailbox soon!
These past couple months have been a whirlwind and it feels surreal being on the other side and hoping all the great conversations and connections stick with people when they're choosing which circle to bubble. 25 days and many many more doors to go!

Even when there's work to be done canvassing, there's still time for play! I walk the Lake Link Trail every day and have never been over to Josh's Pond until today. We are so blessed to have easy access to this treasure. Broomfield's 40% open space goal is one of many things that makes us special!

I've taught digital citizenship classes, and I am keenly aware how dissatisfying many find the digital experience. It doesn't have to be this way. Glad to see scientists studying "what makes a healthy, vibrant conversation online." For now, cheers to Bluesky cultivating connection and enthusiasm 💛
