After watching city leaders almost unanimously approve the annexation and development plan for Lifebridge church to build a mini-city near Union Reservoir, Longmont residents took to the streets to gather signatures of protest. Six-thousand signatures later, the city council opted not to reconsider its decision and instead sent the issue to voters. It’s a sticky issue that will more than likely effect the Nov. 6 election as candidates for all offices have been pegged as to whether they support the Lifebridge project.
What’s Next: Voters will see this question on a special election ballot in late January/early February.
