The popularity of Boulder County's open-space program is not waning, said County Commissioner Ron Stewart, who also is director of the Parks and Open Space Department. In November, he said, voters backed extension of a 0.1 percent sales tax from the recycling fund to the open-space fund. The election results weren't surprising to Stewart. Boulder County's open-space program also appears to be contagious. Also, about 80 percent of Erie residents who responded to a recent survey supported an open-space plan for the rapidly developing town.
