Here are the top stories today in Boulder:

  1. Keeping Boulder safe from wildfires. Keeping the City of Boulder's open space cleared of debris that could be the fuel for the next wildfire is a daunting task. The City's vegetation stewardship manager indicates that "it's never going to be done." (Reporting Lab)
  2. Take a food tour at Boulder's Rosetta Hall. This food hall located in the former Foundry space on Walnut Street, has a lot of everything for those seeking Boulder's best culinary experiences. (303)
  3. More resilient food systems must be created with approaching climate change. CA CU lead study shows that demand for water will be the number one threat to food security over the next 20 years. Creating a more resilient global food supply should be part of the plan for the future. (CU Today)
  4. Small plane crashes in Boulder County. At least one of the four passengers on board was killed when a small, twin-engine plane crashed on Sunday morning in a wooded area in Lefthand Canyon. (CO Sun)
