Why I’m Running

Boulder County is a beautiful place to live. We have mountains, pastures, roaring creeks and an extensive network of bike paths and hiking trails. But despite these riches, we can do better. We need to do a better job at making it possible for all kinds of people to live here. The cost of owning or renting a home is beyond reach of too many, and over 50,000 families are spending more than half their income just to have a roof over their heads. More than a quarter of the population cannot make ends meet, despite working. The gap between the income of Boulder County’s white population and income of people of color is unconscionable. And congested roads threaten the economic prosperity that has helped provide the rich amenities we all enjoy.

I am running for County Commissioner to work on three main issues:

  • Increase access to affordable housing by implementing the Boulder County Regional Housing Partnership.
  • Advance renewable energy, energy efficiency and access to non-carbon based transportation options.
  • Make Boulder County a more welcoming place for people of color and other under-represented and marginalized people.

But that’s not all!

Boulder County has thousands of acres of farmland, but farmers increasingly struggle to continue producing food.

The county is responsible for delivering social services but too many people are not getting the services they need.

Our county is increasingly multi-ethnic and multi-racial, yet people of color report feeling invisible.

As a Boulder County Commissioner, I will work tirelessly on issues across the spectrum so that all sectors of our economy thrive and all of Boulder County’s residents feel valued and included in their community.

  • Claire Levy is smart, hardworking, kind – everything a county commissioner should be. She thinks through issues to avoid unintended consequences.

    - Cathy Hazouri

  • It is an honor to support Claire’s candidacy for Boulder County Commissioner. I’ve followed Claire’s positions while she was at the state legislature and then taking over as the ED of a non-profit that helps in the development of policy and I agree with many of them. I think that she will be a greater addition and a guiding star for equity and early learning opportunities for communities of color.  Claire’s positions on affordable housing and her understanding of the gaps and challenges is what we need in the county. Count on me!

  • I have known Claire as a true leader since her days at the Boulder County Housing Authority. As I stepped into ADU advocacy a few years back, it became abundantly clear that the link between great leadership and the opportunities for making a great and vital community are inextricable. We need strong intelligent leaders with a vision to keep our community evolving. Claire has my vote.

    - ML Robles
