and talkative. Ron Stewart, Director of Boulder County Open Space, and former Boulder County Commissioner had this to say about the City of Lafayette’s potential plans to annex and devalue 40 acres of land owned for greater than 70 years by the same person…
“Cities have a right to decide where they want to annex and where they want to develop, and where not to,” said Ron Stewart, director of Boulder County’s Parks and Open Space Department. “It’s not always up to the property owner.”
There’s lots more to the story and you can read it here. Sounds to me that if you own a large plot of land and are near a city limit in Boulder County, sell your land FAST! This lack of respect for property rights and active effort to devalue someone’s property on which they have lived for all but 2 years of their 80 year life is sickening.
