Local voices matter!

The best development decisions are made by people who live in the community—not by faraway developers chasing volume.

Paving Over the "Garden Spot"

Berthoud earned its nickname from fertile fields and thriving farms. But as development spreads, those fields are vanishing—paved over and gone for good.

A Town That Knows Its Roots

For over 40 years, Berthoud has been a Tree City USA and earned 13 Growth Awards. Don't let careless development uproot what makes us unique.

“If you care about the future of Berthoud, if you believe growth should serve our town—not steamroll it—then you’re in the right place.”
