Longmont: Public Meeting for Gas and Oil Comments

Recently the City Council discussed gas and oil regulations in Longmont but rather than moving forward with any legislation of its own, it decided to hold a public forum to get more input from citizens. Clearly some members of Council would support a ban on fracking or a moratorium regardless of their legality. Inevitably the public forum will be populated with anti-fracking activists. Perhaps some members of Council hope to are follow Boulder County’s lead (see above) to avoid complying with State law.
