Historic Preservation Plan and Investment Task Force

We had another delightful Golden Gallop yesterday–lots of runners participated and much support was shown for the Golden Schools Foundation.  Many thanks to Dave Powers for a fine bunch of photos, which appear on our Facebook page.


Historic Golden Colorado

From 5:30-6:30PM – The City will hold a Historic Preservation Plan Public Outreach Meeting in the Planning/Public Works Building at 1445 10th Street.

The City of Golden Historic Preservation Board is developing a Historic Preservation Plan that will:

• Identify important historic themes and stories that reflect Golden’s history and culture
• Identify ways to improve the interpretation, understanding, and enjoyment of Golden’s stories
• Identify sites and resources that are part of telling those stories

We invite you to discuss these important historic themes, stories, sites, and resources, and then brainstorm ways to interpret and promote them in order to develop the preservation plan.  Please join us – we greatly value your input!  More….


At 6PM, the Golden Investment Forum Task Force will meet in City Council Chambers. The Director of Community and Economic Development brought an interim report to City Council on September 13th. Council asked the Task Force to continue evaluating the possibilities. In the near term, we are likely to put a lodging task on the ballot in 2019. If we do, where should the proceeds be spent? Front-runners are cultural organizations and open space acquisition. There are also many other items on the city’s wish list, including affordable housing, parks, rec, and museum facilities upgrades, city-wide broadband, a new city hall, and lots more. The City is interested in a bond measure to cover some of the rest of those desires.  Learn more….


The moon will be full at 8:52 tonight.


The last Golden Bike Cruise of the year takes place tomorrow night.  The optional costume theme is ZOMBIES!
