Boulder County Commissioners voted Tuesday to hold two separate executive sessions on Wednesday, Sept. 10, 2025, both scheduled for 1 p.m., one as the Board of County Commissioners and one while sitting as the Boulder County Housing Authority board of directors.
Natalie Springant, the commissioners’ deputy, asked for a vote to convene an executive session for the Board of County Commissioners with County Attorney Ben Pearlman pursuant to Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS) 24‑6‑402(4)(b) (for legal advice) and CRS 24‑6‑402(4)(e) (to give instructions to negotiators) to discuss zoning classifications and collective‑bargaining negotiations with the Boulder County Employees Union. A commissioner moved and a second was recorded; the motion passed on an affirmative voice vote.
Springant then asked the board, sitting as the Boulder County Housing Authority, to authorize an executive session with County Attorney Ben Pearlman pursuant to CRS 24‑6‑402(4)(a) (real property) to discuss several specified addresses. The record lists these parcels as: 504 Lafarge Avenue in Louisville; 909 Avalon Avenue in Lafayette; 1816 and 1822 Cambridge Drive in Longmont; 8420 First Avenue in Longmont; 1403 Emery Street in Longmont; and 455 North Burlington Avenue in Lafayette. Commissioners moved and seconded the request and approved it by voice vote.
Springant noted earlier in the meeting that several consent items had been discussed at a prior meeting (Sept. 2) and that one consent item (6c) was not discussed due to time constraints; that notation was entered “for the record.”
The board did not disclose details of the executive-session topics beyond the statutory bases cited. The motions as recorded referenced the specific CRS subsections authorizing nonpublic sessions and scheduled both sessions for 1 p.m. on Sept. 10, 2025.
