    The vision calls for a more pedestrian accessible neighborhood center oriented approach. I like this, yet fear that it ignores the demographic reality of our times. The County and City residents are ageing, as are most of our tourist visitors. The majority will be loath to abandon their vehicles without good alternatives. It is a very long walk for many of them from 24th and N. Main to 8th and Main.

    The city is cutting public transportation assets just when you are moving forward with a plan that needs even more intense public transportation assets. Every zone in the Plan indicates that a current "plus" is public transportation, while a negative is too intense auto use and speed. Absent good public transportation options it is unlikely the majority will drop their cars - you may be able to slow them down but that is the extent of it.

    The vision is wonderful and well thought out (intensify development in centers to attract more efficient housing options and the business/cultural attractions that make living nearby desirable). However, the reality of making such development profitable will be a real challenge as the final zoning/code requirements are created. While at the same time being mindful of the demographic wave heading our way (I think 7 of the 10 cities with the fastest growing 65+ age group are located in Colorado) and what that means for services and infrastructure.

Virtual City Hall is not a certified voting system or ballot box. As with any public comment process, participation in Virtual City Hall is voluntary.

Virtual City Hall has two participation channels:

  • The Registered Channel: Sign in before or just after you submit your response. Either way, Community Feedback will show your response on this website.
  • The Unregistered Channel: Don't sign in and remain anonymous. Community Feedback will just share your response with Durango staff.

Note: The first time you sign in, you'll need to register (establish an account on Virtual City Hall). Registration is free.

The City of Durango has contracted with Community Feedback to monitor responses shown on this website.

  • To prevent any single user from dominating the forum, the City of Durango restricts the number of responses any one user can post on selected topics. Registration helps Community Feedback enforce this restriction.
  • Users, staff and government leaders often want to know the neighborhood from which a response is posted. Community Feedback uses registration to show the neighborhood next to each response (not the address).
  • If a user posts a response that does not meet the City of Durango guidelines for civility, Community Feedback uses the user's email address to invite the user to resolve the issue.

Community Feedback will get your contact information. The company is under contract with the City of Durango to hold it in strict confidence per their privacy policy.

  • Since you'll see your own response on Virtual City Hall, you'll be able to confirm that your response was posted as you intended.
  • You'll be able to change and/or delete your response as long as the topic is open.

Yes. Sign out, then set your privacy preference to be "No - just show it without my name to staff". You won't need to register.

While no authentication procedure can perfectly detect every fraudulent registration, Community Feedback is able to secure the registered channel against systematic fraud: cases where users submit enough statements with fraudulent registrations to sway the overall interpretation of the feedback.

Community Feedback is unable to secure the unregistered channel against systematic fraud, because unregistered users are anonymous.

Neither the registered nor the unregistered channel represent a certified voting system or ballot box - and that caveat is footnoted on every page of feedback. Instead, both are additional channels for feedback to government.

Users can participate on the registered channel (by signing in) or on the unregistered channel (by remaining anonymous). The City of Durango offers both channels in order to broaden participation and maximize decision makers' insights.

The registered channel enables users to assure decision makers that their feedback comes from a real person in a specific neighborhood. It also enables users to participate in a public discussion on the website, as well as manage their own response after posting it.

The unregistered channel is for users who want to provide quick feedback without registering, and/or whose privacy concerns would prevent them from participating if required to register. Because many users with valuable insights will only share them anonymously, this channel gives decision makers the option to consider those insights in their deliberations.

OpenGov is a non-partisan company whose mission is to broaden civic engagement and build public trust in government. The City of Durango has contracted with OpenGov to administer Virtual City Hall.
