Reporters, endorsers, and supporters: here is the campaign boilerplate, what is actually on the ballot, the key facts, lines you can quote, a press contact, and downloadable graphics you can use right away.
Boilerplate
Niwot Together is the volunteer campaign to incorporate Niwot as a Colorado town on November 3, 2026. The county isn’t coming to fix our roads — incorporation gives Niwot residents a say over their own streets, land, and future. For the median Niwot home, incorporation costs about $63 a month (a 2.5% sales tax and a 4-mill property levy), and that money stays in Niwot to fix Niwot’s roads. Voters decide eight Niwot questions in all — incorporation, home rule and the charter commission, and five fiscal questions — and elect nine charter commissioners to write the charter. Niwot Together is the ballot-measure advocacy campaign for incorporation.
Key facts
- Niwot Together is the volunteer campaign to incorporate Niwot as a Colorado town on the November 3, 2026 ballot.
- Niwot appears on that ballot eight times: incorporation itself, home rule and the charter commission, and five fiscal questions. Voters also elect nine charter commissioners, who write the town charter. None of it sits near the top of the ballot — state and county races come first — so the campaign's practical instruction is to vote it all the way down.
- Roads are the first of the six questions the campaign runs on: Boulder County stopped repaving or reconstructing local Niwot roads in 1995, and 23 of Niwot's 31 road miles have no funding mechanism to repair them.
- For the median Niwot home it costs about $63 a month — a 2.5% sales tax and a 4-mill property levy — and those dollars stay in Niwot. Buying a vehicle or remodeling carries the same 2.5% once, which puts a typical home around $77 a month all-in.
- A yes vote changes no household bill until 2028: the sales and use tax and the marijuana tax all commence January 1, 2028.
- The campaign is non-partisan and volunteer-run.
Quotable lines
“The county isn't coming to fix our roads. Incorporation is how Niwot takes the wheel.”
“A yes vote is a vote for Niwot's roads, Niwot's future, and Niwot's voice.”
“About $63 a month keeps our tax dollars here — fixing Niwot's streets instead of funding someone else's.”

Make it count
Covering it is one thing. Voting it is another.
If you live inside the proposed boundary, the campaign asks one thing: pledge to vote Yes on November 3, and vote it all the way down.
