The Boulder City Council held a significant meeting on March 20, 2025, where they addressed community remembrance and accountability. One of the most impactful decisions was the declaration of March 22 as the Boulder Day of Remembrance, honoring the ten victims of the tragic King Soopers shooting that occurred on March 22, 2021. Council member Tara Weiner led the heartfelt tribute, emphasizing the importance of remembering the lives lost and ensuring that their names are spoken each year to keep their memories alive.

Weiner poignantly recounted the lives of the victims, urging the community to come together in remembrance and reflection. The council's decision to establish this annual day of remembrance aims to foster a sense of unity and healing within the community, allowing residents to honor those who were taken too soon.

In addition to the remembrance declaration, the council also amended the meeting agenda to address a code of conduct complaint against council member Taisha Adams. Special counsel Stephanie Boster concluded that no violations occurred, allowing the council to move forward without further action on the matter.

The meeting underscored the council's commitment to both honoring the past and maintaining accountability within its ranks. As Boulder prepares for the upcoming remembrance event at the museum, the community is encouraged to participate and reflect on the impact of the tragedy, reinforcing the bonds that hold them together.
