#12This is pretty neat. Wonder if they're using some data catalog under the covers for the search screen or is it all custom built.
It looks like ArcGIS, which is what my city of Halifax, NS also uses: https://catalogue-hrm.opendata.arcgis.com/

Yes but it's Boulder, the promised land, according to here
Boulder is the worst best small town in America. You know what I mean.
Boulder is more accurately described as a neighborhood or region of Denver.
If that’s not obvious today it certainly will be when the staggering construction in Arvada, Broomfield, and so on, has filled in all of the areas that could plausibly be used to argue otherwise.

It is ArcGIS. Here is their Emergency Operations Center overlay:

My local city government also recently published a detailed interactive online GIS map of the city, including all lot boundaries, buried utilities, etc. It's great to feel like the public can easily access what is meant to be public record, rather than relying on for-profit third parties to make it available to us.

Been there. It's very expensive and crowded but it's really nice being like 15 minutes from some of the nicest hiking trails in the country.
>and crowded
Oh yes, with the 5 story limit of the height of the buildings - and a year over year growth of 1%.
Super crowded.
