Boulder County opened a grant round August 17 for 2027 projects aimed at keeping materials out of landfills. Requests could range from $1,000 to $30,000, with applications due September 30.
The service area included Boulder County, Broomfield and Erie. Eligible applicants included businesses, nonprofits, schools, local governments and communities. Funding categories covered consumer practices, collecting or processing materials, and manufacturing or design.
The county said the Circular Economy Fund was supported by its voter-approved Sustainability Tax, a 0.125% sales and use tax extended through 2034. This report describes that summer application round; it does not identify grant recipients or claim the deadline remains open.
