| Gunbarrel Boulder County Community Information |
|
June 2004 Local facts: The City of Boulder had agreed to extend utility lines and to annex it into Boulder with 3 - 5 years, and today it has still remained outside of Boulder. The residents are served by volunteer fire firefighters and the County Sheriffs. In 1993, the county residents established a General Improvement District to acquire open space and improve their streets.
