August Events in Boulder Creek
Nice listing of music events… although we’re starting to get a bit confused by the section titled “Merchant ‘In the Know’ Deals”….. many of the entries are not deals, but just advertisements.
National Night Out – This Tuesday
Downtown Cell Tower still PENDING !
Email below was received on Monday, July 29 from Bruce McPherson’s office.
I’m responding on behalf Supervisor McPherson, who is out of the office. I’m also responding because I was mistaken in saying that Verizon had withdrawn their application. My information was based on Chris Currier, who said he was withdrawing the application. Wishful thinking prevailed and I misstated the situation. Verizon has taken the position that Chris is in a contractual arrangement and cannot withdraw. Today, I talked to Frank Barron, Chris Currier and the agent working on behalf of Verizon. They all confirmed that Verizon is looking for alternative sites. If they can find a decent alternative, they expect to withdraw the application for the Currier site. At this time, however, the application is still active and the hearing is still scheduled for Aug. 23 before Zoning Administrator. ( That hearing very likely will be pushed to a later date because Verizon likely will not have the information requested by the ZA.)
I apologize again for my part in furthering the wrong information.
Sincerely,
Robin

Boulder Creek Radio Station KBCZ 90.1 Inches One Step Closer to Becoming Reality
July 31, 2013-Boulder Creek, CA.– The Boulder Creek Recreation and Parks District voted unanimously to move forward in negotiations with the non-profit organization Common Frequency, who currently owns the FCC license for the radio station KBCZ 90.1 FM for an amount not to exceed $12,000.
Because of strong interest from the local community, the board felt that supporting the radio station’s inception, did fall under their vision statement of “helping to enrich and fulfill the lives of the citizens through the provision of facilities and programs.”
Local community members brought their ideas, and their passions, to Tuesday night’s meeting. The community’s goals and focus will be to bring the valley together through education, information, community events, and the arts and to be financially sustainable through donations and local business sponsorships. The station could also help to promote the local economy and in the future be streaming live on the internet. Interim Director of the project, Tim Welch said, “The members of the Boulder Creek community who came to the board meeting and sent their emails of support have made it very clear that they would love to have a community radio station to further unite this great community. We are so thankful that the board is supporting this effort and we look forward to making this project a reality.” Continue reading
