- 1. From EgoVillage to EcoVillage Boulder Bioneers Workshop Morey Bean & Emma Ruffin Friday, February 3, 2017 morey.bean@gmail.com
- 6. The BEST communities are those who do a GREAT job of taking care of their LEAST fortunate.

- 8. Jessica “On January 25, 2016, of the 5,467 homeless reported (Denver) metro- wide, 726 were reported as staying in Boulder County. Of those, 129 lived on the street.” --Metro Denver Homeless Initiative, 2016 PIT Survey Photo Credit Rex Holbein /Mike Homner
- 9. A Denver study found that it costs an average community about $43,300 per year for each chronically homeless person living on the streets. By contrast, it costs about $11,700 per year to provide housing and case management in a housing first setting. Communities can therefore save more than $31,000 per year, per housing first resident.

- 10. On August 1, 2106, the City of Boulder Human Services Department organized tour of several sites around Boulder that may be available to provide services to the homeless and poor. Opportunity Village, Eugene, OR
- 11. Three of the tour stops were at sites that are being considered for the development of communities that will be intended to serve Boulder residents who are homeless. Eco-Cycle
- 12. “In the continuum of care for people who are homeless, there is a dearth of transitional housing available that bridges the gap between people who have no choice but to occupy shelters, and those who can be housed in permanent housing.”
- 13. “Bridge House does a wonderful job of providing such transitional housing with its Ready to Work facility, housing 44 previously homeless men.
- 14. Boulder Housing Partners operates 1175 Lee Hill, a housing facility for 31 chronically homeless men and women.
- 15. Other agencies in Boulder, including the Safe House Alliance and Attention Homes currently house over 150 previously homeless people.
- 16. Adding up the transitional housing provided in Boulder to accommodate the over 700 people who are currently homeless, we still have over 450 people in Boulder, right now in 2016 who remain unserved, remaining homeless.
- 17. To ‘end’ homelessness, if we provided housing first facilities for all of our 450 homeless neighbors in facilities like 1175 Lee Hill, it would cost us taxpayers $148,000,000*, an unlikely budget scenario. *The 1175 Lee Hill cost $330,000 per unit

Editor's Notes
- It’s in Boulder’s DNA to support a tent city for the ‘commoner’. The wonderful Chautauqua neighborhood Is where these tents and tiny homes were at the turn of the century.
- This is my vision as an architect of what an intentional, cooperative New Chautauqua Community may look like, in this case housed on the abandoned Boulder Community Hospital site between Broadway and 9th Street.
- This is my initial submittal to the City Planning Department for a New Chautauqua Community on the now vacant Valmont Park land south of Valmont Road, just south of the bike park and airport. The site was recommended by the Chair of the Boulder Planning Board. It has been rejected by the City Planning Department.
- This is a revised schematic proposal for locating the Community at the south end of Valmont Park in an area on the Park Master Plan called “Turf / Flex”. It would also include the use of the current Parks and Open Space maintenance buildings, scheduled in the Master Plan to become used as a community facility. The brown spots are anticipated ball fields overlaid on a Google Earth image, looking northeast from Pearl Parkway. The yurt looking building would serve as a community center.
- The certificate from the Home Builder’s Institute was earned by Patris, a skilled refugee from South Sudan now living at the Bridge House’s Ready to Work home and training center. As we establish the first New Chautauqua Community, it’s hoped that he’ll still be in Boulder for him to be one of the first occupants, helping to build out the community.
- Much work is to be done to to educate community leaders about the urgency of this effort. Between 15 and 25 folks who were homeless die each year in Boulder due to causes related to their homelessness.
- Nickelsville is a Seattle encampment.
- This is a survey sheet filled out by guests to First Congregational Church’s Soup Kitchen.
- We are hoping to train folks to build tiny homes with the help of CCI.
