July 4th Opens and Closes in Boulder
Jun 30th
BOULDER, Colo. – The City of Boulder announced today that in addition to closures related to Independence Day, there will be additional impacts later this week to city facilities and services that are currently operating in a limited capacity due to COVID-19.
All city facilities will be closed on July 2 as part of a citywide cost-saving effort to help address the financial impact of COVID-19. The city announced on June 1 that it would be implementing six furlough days for nearly all city staff this year as a cost-saving effort to close the budget gap caused by the pandemic. Employees will not be paid for this day away from work and are not allowed to use vacation time to offset the loss in income. This measure will result in an estimated budget savings of over $1.8 million. July 2 is the first in the series of furlough days for 2020.
Most city facilities will be closed on July 3 and 4 in observance of the Fourth of July, with the following exceptions:
Open on Friday, July 3:
