During public participation at the Jan. 22 meeting, Travis Hugh Coley, a resident of the Boulder Depot building, asked commissioners to review traffic-calming measures on Junction Place and to restore fixtures damaged during construction.

Coley said traffic-calming features and lamps have been knocked down repeatedly by private and construction vehicles and that some measures appear to have been removed during recent construction on Block 30. "Traffic calming measures degraded by construction need to be restored on Junction Place," he said, and he suggested the commission consider a review now that construction activity has decreased.

Commissioner Rebecca DeMichele clarified that Coley was referring to the bollards along the shared pedestrian plaza on Junction Place. City staff and commissioners told Coley they welcome photos and documentation and recommended using the Enquire Boulder app to file reports with the city’s maintenance crews. Staff said residents may also email materials to the commission for follow-up and that the commission would include those items on a future agenda if warranted.

Coley identified himself as a resident of the Boulder Depot building and said he is not a city employee. He asked for continued attention as Block 30 comes back online in spring and suggested including the new fire department neighbors in future discussions about traffic calming.

Commissioners thanked Coley for his comments and encouraged residents to use the city reporting app and to send photographs or other supporting material to the commission.
