Clerk & Recorder’s Office to Open at Midnight May 1 for Civil Union Licenses
Boulder County, Colo. –
The Recording Division staff plans to open its office at 1750 33rd St. from midnight to about 2 a.m. to issue licenses to couples as soon as Colorado’s new civil unions law takes effect on May 1. The Boulder office will reopen for regular business hours from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
“May 1 will be an exciting and historic day for same-sex couples in Boulder County and Colorado,” Clerk and Recorder Hillary Hall said. “We’re eager to serve local couples who’ve waited a long time for civil unions to be recognized by the state.”
Branch offices at 529 Coffman St. in Longmont and 722 Main St. in Louisville will be open for regular business hours, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. May 1.
Clerk’s office staff will post more information about civil unions, including cost and forms to complete, on BoulderCounty.org later this month.

Boulder County, Colo. – Planning to be out of town on Election Day? The Boulder County Clerk and Recorder’s Office offers several options for travelers, overseas military, college students and others who can’t vote in person on Tuesday, Nov. 6:
- Vote by mail-in ballot. If you aren’t signed up to vote by mail-in ballot, it’s not too late. Visit www.BoulderCountyVotes.org soon to request one. Then vote and return it to a drop-off site or Boulder County Clerk & Recorder’s office by 7 p.m. on Election Day.
- Vote at an early voting location. If you’d prefer not to receive a mail-in ballot but won’t be in town to head to your polling place on Election Day, early voting is a great option. Early voting begins Monday, Oct. 22, at our Boulder and Longmont branch offices. Additional early voting locationswill open Oct. 29 in Boulder, Lafayette and Longmont. Early voting runs through Friday, Nov. 2.
- Request an overseas/military ballot. If you’ll be out of the country altogether, you can still request a ballot and receive it via snail mail or email – but contact us soon, because mailing a ballot overseas takes extra time. These voters have until Nov. 14 to return their ballots as long as they’re postmarked no later than Nov. 6.
Visit www.BoulderCountyVotes.org to learn more about these options, or call 303-413-7740 for more information. You can also visit one of three Boulder County Clerk & Recorder’s Office branches: 1750 33rd St. in Boulder; 529 Coffman St. in Longmont; or 722 Main St. in Louisville. Office hours are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Boulder County voters can also visit www.BoulderCountyVotes.org for ballot content and to learn more about local elections.
Key Dates for the 2012 General Election:
- Week of Oct. 15: Ballots will be sent to voters who have requested a mail ballot for the general election or signed up as permanent mail-in voters.
- Monday, Oct. 22: Early voting begins. Locations and hours are available at www.BoulderCountyVotes.org.
