Pomerance: We need council members who will actually fix our broken budget process (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The list of Boulder’s financial messes keeps growing. What follows is a brief summary of some of the bigger issues. What is clear to me from looking at this is that it will take some very serious reorganization, including not only how things operate, but also how both the City Council and staff members fulfill their responsibilities. It is unacceptable to continue with business as usual. Ben Binder is a civil engineer and has been following the South Boulder Creek project carefully over the year
Pomerance: South Boulder Creek flood mitigation needs new minds doing new the thinking (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Boulder just added a web page where the city states that it will start building the dam/floodwall for South Boulder Creek in October. No surprise to me, the projected cost went up another $10 million to $76.5 million since last year.

What started me off on this topic was an email I got from a friend regarding the Boulder City Council’s discussion of the tipped minimum wage issue at their recent meeting, and in particular the testimony of Rebecca Mitchell, professor at the Leeds School of Business at CU. Prof. Mitchell provided an excellent critique of the city’s work, which, no surprise, supported the city’s proposal that favored the restaurants. But before she finished, her testimony was abruptly cut off after exactly two m
Pomerance: The Downtown Development Authority is even worse than I thought (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I got some very interesting feedback on my most recent column on the Downtown Development Authority. Here’s a summary of some of what came up for me in reading the input. For your information, nothing is set in stone yet; the Boulder City Council could still come to its senses, and fix Ordinance 8763 passed July 23 on first reading. If the council passes Ordinance 8763 as is, creating the structure for DDA, the decisions to implement it and to divert incremental increases in sales and property t
