Wildfire Mitigation 

Town of Lyons Match for Boulder County Wildfire Partners


Boulder County will continue their wildfire mitigation program which offers up to $500 to homeowners who complete eligible mitigation activities. New this year - the Town of Lyons will match up to an additional $500 per household for eligible mitigation activities until the matching funds are depleted.  The Town of Lyons Wildfire Mitigation program will utilize the same eligible mitigation activities as Boulder County but will also require an Individual Home Assessment which is offered by Wildfire Partners. Boulder County does NOT require a home assessment to claim a rebate. 

The first step for the Lyons Rebate is to get your individual home assessment.
Sign up at www.wildfirepartners.org today and begin your home assessment.

Curbside Limb Pick up

Street Improvements in Lyons 

Updated to late June/early July

Beginning in late June/early July,  a pavement firm will begin mobilization in Lyons with a project list, which includes repaving some streets north of Main Street, installing some curb and gutter, and upgrading storm drainage along various streets in Town. These improvements will enhance safety, drainage, and street quality. 
Based on the recommendations of the Pavement Management Report, some streets will be repaved, some will have chip seal and some crack seal repairs. Work is expected to last through August. 
 

This work includes:

•    Reese Street: From 4th Avenue to 5th Avenue

•    Seward Street: From 4th Avenue to 5th Avenue

•    Stickney Street: From 4th Avenue to 5th Avenue

•    4th Avenue: From Reese Street to Stickney Street

•    Stone Canyon Drive 

•    1st Avenue

•    Ewald Avenue

As work begins, the contractor will post “no-parking” signage with no-parking dates a couple days before they begin on each street.   This means that your vehicle needs to be off the street and either parked in your driveway or on another street that is not impacted by this work during those posted dates.   Please adhere to the no-parking signage or your vehicle will be towed!   Keep in mind timing as well, during paving and chip sealing operations your driveway might be in accessible for several hours.  This also applies to any other things that might be parked in the street such as campers, RVs, moving pods, landscaping materials, etc.

As the work dates for each street get closer, residents on the streets impacted will receive door knockers in the coming weeks. Please watch for posted signs and detours. We appreciate your patience.
