Welcome to the Boulder Community Alliance, a nonprofit serving Boulder, Utah. We are one of the smallest and most remote communities in the West, a place that had been largely spared the twin development pressures of tourism and subdivisions—until about 10 years ago. Now Boulder is being discovered. The Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument and the “All American Road” designation for Highway 12 has brought more visitors of every stripe and attracted many interested in buying land in a place where the natural world is in such abundant display.

The good news, and really it is mostly good, is that Boulder has been treated gently by commercial and residential development. This presents an opportunity to work together as a community, to explore resources, and to encourage this trend. Our goals are to promote and protect what we have come to call the four “C’s” — Conservation, Commerce, Community, and Culture.

Each “C” has a separate page, readily accessed below. Taken as a whole, they outline present projects and future directions; they explain the issues we confront as a community. We have also initiated an electronic newsletter as part of this website. It will be updated regularly. We hope that you will sign up using your e-mail (kept private) to automatically receive the newsletters and updates. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments.

Conservation

Open Space and Farm Preservation
Is there any latitude between the cows and the condos? Does viewscape have to go from pastures to rooftops?

Commerce

County ATV Promotion
"Escalante River Basin citizens unite in support of their non-motorized economic base." Read about the Basinheads... and more.

 






Community

Supporting General Plan Goals
Getting things done through cooperation and commitment. All while dealing with a feisty and diverse group—a tradition going back to the Anasazi judging from the glyphs below.

 


Culture

Arts, Crafts and more
A healthy community is nourished by more than food and water. Culture feeds the mind and spirit of people, and in this sense is not frill but necessity.
