Attached is an Open Records Request form.
We are terribly disappointed that Boulder County has seen fit to conduct the public’s business in secret. See below. It is not the standard that the people expect.
There ought to be a law protecting the public from public officials who abuse their office to silence dissent.
We hope that the county will provide an immediate response to our new request.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
