That open space that we tax ourselves for is what took most of the empty land out of contention for development - it provided a natural barrier against other areas encroaching on us and also gave us a lovely place to play that is available to everyone who comes to use it - not just Boulder residents.  If you want more people here - well that's your choice but in Boulder we have reached capacity and that's why it's a lovely place to live.  Everyone should live where they can afford to live and that they choose.  I, personally, would like to live in Malibu but since I cannot afford it I will settle for the cheapest area in Boulder which I can afford.  And I will do what I can to keep developers at bay.
