The present invention relates to a new and improved system and method for converting digital multiple bit audio signals to analog audio signals and for generating internal or localized audio tone signals in a manner which is more economical in terms of necessary circuitry and hardware than heretofore possible. More particularly, the system of the present invention can be utilized to great advantage in a communication network of the type which has a bus for carrying a plurality of digital, multiple bit time divided channels of information including audio to be conveyed therefrom in analog form and data which controls the operation of the system and the overall operation of the network. The system and method of the present invention also provide for the generation of digitized data and placing the data onto the bus.
Communication networks wherein any one of a plurality of operator positions is to be coupled to any one of a plurality of remotely located base station transmitters often utilize time division multiplexing to provide the number of audio channels necessary for achieving total network capacity. In networks of this type, a bus is generally utilized for carrying a plurality of digital multiple bit time divided channels of audio which run in both directions between the operator positions and the base stations. An interface system is generally required between the bus and each of the base stations. The interface system must be capable of decoding the digitized audio received from the operator positions and converting the same to analog audio signals for transmission. The interface system must also be capable of generating tones for keying purposes or the like, and, depending on the overall system and network organization and operation, generating data.
In the prior art, each of the foregoing functions has been accomplished separately and independently. Hence, each interface system would have a separate decoder for only decoding digitized audio, a separate tone generator for generating audio tones, and a separate data generating means for placing required data onto the bus to maintain the proper network organization.
The separate implementation of these functions adversely impacts upon the overall network cost, especially when a number of interface systems are required. Both the cost of labor and materials is increased as a result of the separate and dedicated circuitry required to accomplish each of these separate functions.
Not only is network cost adversely affected, but the cost of maintaining the network is also adversely affected. When more component parts are required in a system, either the physical size of the system must be increased to accommodate all of the components, or the component density must be increased. If the physical size of the network is increased, the overhead associated with the space which the systems occupy also must increase. In the latter case, if component density is increased, the systems are rendered more complicated thus increasing service maintenance costs when service is required.
It is therefore a general object of the present invention to provide a new and improved system and method for converting digitized audio carried on a bus in one of a plurality of time slots to analog audio and for generating localized tone signals.
It is another object of the present invention to provide such a system and method which requires fewer component parts than heretofore required for accomplishing these functions.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide such a system and method which includes generating data and placing the data onto the bus in a manner which does not unduly increase the complexity of the system.
It is a still further object of the present invention to provide such a system wherein the analog tones and decoded analog audio are provided from a common decoder.
The invention therefore provides a system for use in a network of the type including a bus arranged for carrying a plurality of time divided multiple bit channels of information wherein each channel is assigned an identifiable time slot and wherein at least one of the channels is adapted for containing a digital multiple bit word representing audio communication. The system provides the decoding of the digital multiple bit audio word of the at least one channel to an analog audio signal and generates internal analog tone signals. The system comprises decoding means for converting a digital multiple bit word to an analog signal, control means including tone generating means adapted for providing at least one digital multiple bit tone word, and select means responsive to the control means for selectively coupling the decoding means to the bus or to the tone generating means. When the select means couples the decoding means to the bus, the system provides the analog audio signal, and when the select means couples the decoding means to the tone generating means, the system provides the internal analog tone signal.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the control means is coupled to the bus for receiving data from the bus contained within a data channel, and includes data generating means for providing digital data signals to said data channel on said bus.
The invention further provides a method of converting a digital multiple bit audio word corresponding to audio information carried on a bus to an analog audio signal and generating internal localized tone analog signals. The method comprises the steps of providing a decoder capable of converting a digital multiple bit word to an analog signal, locally generating at least one digital multiple bit tone word, and thereafter, selectively conveying the digital multiple bit audio word on the bus or the locally generated digital multiple bit tone word to the decoder.
The features of the present invention which are believed to be novel are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The invention, together with further objects and advantages thereof, may best be understood by making reference to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in the several figures of which like reference numerals identify identical elements, and wherein:
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a communication network embodying the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a diagrammatic representation of a system embodying the present invention; and
FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating the sequence of operation of a portion of the system of FIG. 2 for generating tone signals.
Referring now to FIG. 1, it illustrates in block diagram form, a communications network embodying the present invention. The communications network generally designated by reference numeral 10 includes a plurality of operator consoles or positions 12, a plurality of base stations 14, and a common electronics bank 16. The common electronics bank 16 establishes communication between any one of the operator positions 12 with any one of the base stations 14. More specifically, the common electronics bank permits the voice audio generated at any one of the operator consoles 12 to be conveyed to any one of the base stations 14 for transmission therefrom and permits the received voice audio at the base station to be conveyed back to the operator console. The voice audio generated by the operator consoles and by the base stations are in analog form. The common electronics bank 16 converts the voice audio analog signals from the operator consoles to digitized audio, places the digitized audio onto a bus within the common electronics bank 16 within an identifiable time slot, decodes the digitized voice audio within that time slot to analog signals, and then conveys the same to one of the base stations for transmission. Conversely, the received voice audio from that base station is converted to digitized audio by the common electronics bank, is placed onto the bus in another identifiable time slot, is decoded by the common electronics bank to an analog signal, and then conveyed to the operator console so that the received voice audio may be heard by the operator at that console.
The common electronics bank permits the communication between any one of the operator consoles 12 and any one of the base stations 14. The common electronics bank generally includes a mux common 18, a plurality of operator mux interfaces 20, a plurality of transmit/receive modules 22 of the type embodying the present invention, and a dual receiver 24. Although only one such dual receiver 24 is illustrated in the figures, in actual practice, more than one dual receiver can be provided.
Each of the operator consoles 12 is hard wired to a respective given one of the operator mux interfaces 20. Similarly, each of the transmit/receive modules is coupled to a respective given one of the base stations 14. Within the common electronics bank and interconnecting the mux common 18, operator mux interfaces 20, transmit/receive modules 22, and the dual receiver 24 is a bus 26. The bus 26 is of the type which carries a plurality of time divided multiple bit channels of information wherein each channel is assigned an identifiable time slot. A particular one of the time slots or channels is dedicated for carrying digitized data to initiate and control operation of the common electronics bank. The remaining time slots are adapted for containing digital multiple bit words representing audio communication between the operator consoles and the base stations. As will be appreciated hereinafter, the bus 26 may include one or more buses with each bus containing 32 channels, each channel consisting of eight-bit slots. For example, each of the buses can be time division multiplexed buses consisting of 32 time slots or channels with one bus having a dedicated channel for data communication and 31 channels adapted for carrying digitized audio. The remaining buses are adapted for containing digitized audio in all 32 time slots or channels. As a result, 95 audio time slots are provided so that any number of operator consoles and base stations can be utilized within the network as long as their total number does not exceed 95.
The mux common 18 provides clock and synchronization signals for the common electronics bank. This module is a central control point for the system. The mux common also provides arbitration for the use of the data channel by the operator mux interfaces 20, transmit/receive modules 22, and the dual receiver 24.
The operator mux interfaces 20 interface the operator positions to the time division multiplexed bus 26. Each operator mux interface contains its own communications hardware for sending and receiving data on the time division multiplex bus data channel or slot, as well as analog-to-digital converters to convert the operator's audio to an eight-bit pulse code modulated (PCM) serial data stream and the hardware to insert the digitized audio into a fixed channel or slot on the time division multiplexed bus 26. In addition, the operator mux interfaces contain a programmable multi-slot receiver circuit which can listen to any or all slots or channels on the bus, converting the digital audio on the bus within a desired channel to an analog audio signal which eventually ends up in one of the operator console speakers.
The transmit/receive modules 22, of the type embodying the present invention, and which will be described in greater detail hereinafter, generally include a single slot digital-to-analog converter whose output is connected to a telephone line driver circuit so that the digitized audio within any one of the time slots or channels assigned to the operator mux interfaces can be sent to the base station transmitter. Each transmit/receive module also contains a single analog-to-digital converter for placing its base station received audio into a fixed or dedicated slot or channel onto the bus 26. In addition, each transmit/receive module contains a microprocessor and dedicated hardware for data communication with the operator mux interfaces by way of the data channel on the bus 26. Also, and as will be more particularly described hereinafter, the transmit/receive modules also include tone generating means for producing internal or localized tones required for base station keying, paging, or the like.
The dual receiver 24 is similar to the transmit/receive modules 22. It, however, includes two analog-to-digital converters for inserting the received audio of two base stations onto the bus 26.
As previously mentioned, the bus 26 can actually consist of three buses running in parallel. Each bus can include 32 channels or time slots with each channel containing eight bits. The clock speed for each bus in this case is approximately 2 megahertz giving a 64K bit per second data rate for the digital audio and data communications Also as previously mentioned, the data communications between the modules in the common electronics bank takes place on one dedicated time slot on just one of the buses.
When any one of the modules of the common electronics bank is to send a data message within the data channel, it sets a flip-flop indicating to the mux common 18 that data is to be sent in the data time slot. This signal is called data request. The mux common 18 continuously polls all data points in the system for data requests, and upon finding one, it grants use of the data channel to the requesting module for a fixed number of consecutive frames if the data channel is currently not being utilized. After the consecutive number of frames, the mux common 18 then discontinues access to the data channel and again polls all other data points for a data request. If the requesting data point had not finished sending its data, the mux common would then provide access to the data channel for another period of consecutive frames. A module discovers it has been granted access to the data channel by first setting a data request and writing out a start of text character to its data output. When the mux common grants the data channel, this byte is shifted out into the data channel. The module then detects this start of text shifted into its receive data input and then sends its source address to the data output. When the module sees its own address shifted into its data input, it knows that the mux common has granted it use of the data channel and it continues to write the remaining bytes of this data packet to the data output. All reads and writes to the data channel are interrupt driven by a signal which is sourced by the mux common in synchronization with the data channel. As a result, data can be transferred to and from the modules at times when it is assured no data shifting is taking place.
The operator positions 12 preferably consist of momentary switches and indicating lights which are controlled by a microprocessor. When a switch is depressed, this microprocessor sends data in a four-byte data packet through a low speed asynchronous serial link to its associated operator mux interface 20. The receipt of the switch packet by the operator mux interface is acknowledged by sending an acknowledge byte back to the operator position. It then cross references the switch position to its function and transmits an appropriate data packet onto the bus to the module who is to execute the function associated with the switch. For example, if the request was a transmit function to one of the base stations, the operator mux interface would send a data packet to the appropriate transmit/receive module The transmit/receive module would then respond with an acknowledge data packet to all of the operator mux interfaces through the data channel. Every operator mux interface senses the contents of the acknowledgement data packet and determines if it was the operator mux interface which keyed the transmit/receive module. If not, the operator mux interface determines the position of the busy base station and sends a message on a low speed serial link to activate that indicating light. If so, the operator mux interface will light the transmit indicating light in a similar manner. In this way, all operator positions have parallel status. In other words, data communications between an operator position and a transmit/receive module take place where the data packet from the operator positions operator mux interface is addressed to a single transmit/receive module but the acknowledgement from the transmit/receive module is addressed to all operator mux interfaces to provide full parallel status.
As can be seen from the foregoing, all of the signals conveyed within the common electronics bank between the various modules are carried over the bus 26 in digitized form within the time slots or channels. The audio signals external to the common electronics bank, the audio signals between the common electronics bank and the base stations 14 and operator consoles 12 are in analog form.
Referring now to FIG. 2, it illustrates in diagrammatic form a transmit/receive module or system 30 embodying the present invention. As can be seen in FIG. 2, the system 30 is coupled to the bus 26 which includes a first bus 32, a second bus 34, and a third bus 36. Each of these buses are of the type previously referred to with respect to the description of FIG. 1 in that each bus contains 32 channels or time slots, and wherein, bus 32 contains the dedicated channel for data communication. The bus 26 includes a line 38 which carries an 8 kilohertz synchronizing signal which is synchronized to the data slot carried on bus 32. In this way, all channels are synchronized during each frame.
The system 30 generally includes a decoding means 40 in the form of a codec, a time slot assigning means 42, a select means 44, and a control means 46. The system 30 further includes a parallel-in-serial-out shift register 48, a serial-in-parallel-out shift register 50, a latch 52, and buffers 54 and 56.
The decoding means 40 is of the type which converts a digital multiple bit word to an analog signal. The decoding means 40 further can convert an analog signal to a digital multiple bit word. It can, for example, be a commercially available decoder manufactured by Motorola, Inc. under Part No. MC14403.
The decoding means or codec 40 is coupled to the select means 44 which can be a Motorola, Inc. MC14539. It includes four inputs. Three of the inputs are coupled to respective ones of the buses 32, 34, and 36 through the latch 52, and one input is coupled to the shift register 48. The shift register 48 is, in turn, coupled to the control means 46.
The select means 44 includes a pair of select inputs 58 and 60 coupled to the control means 46. As will be described hereinafter, the control means 46 responsive to the data which it receives from the data channel on bus 32 selectively couples the decoding means 40 to one of the buses or to the shift register 48.
The control means 46, which can be a Motorola, Inc. MC6803 includes a tone generating means adapted for providing at least one digital multiple bit tone word. The digitized eight-bit tone word is coupled to the select means through the shift register 48. The control means 46 also includes a data generating means having a common output on the control means with the tone generating means. The data to be placed onto the bus 32 within the dedicated data channel is conveyed to bus 32 through the buffer 54 which is coupled to a common output of the shift register 48. The common output 62 of the shift register 48 is coupled to both the data selector 44 and to the bus 32 through the buffer 54.
For receiving data, the control means 46 has a data input 64 coupled to the shift register 50. The shift register 50, in turn, is coupled to the latch 52 and to the bus 32 through the latch. The control means 46 also has another input 66 which is coupled to a series of switches 68. The switches 68 are settable to define the predetermined time slot in which the digitized audio from the system 30 is to be placed onto one of the buses, in this case, bus 32. The digitized audio is placed onto the bus through the buffer 56 which is coupled between bus 32 and the output of the decoding means 40. The decoding means 40 has an input 70 which is coupled to the base station receiver for receiving analog signals therefrom.
The control means 46 further includes an enable output 72, a clock output 74, and a data output 76. These outputs are coupled to the time slot assigning means 42, which can be a Motorola, Inc. 14416. The time slot assigning means further has an input 78 coupled to a 2 megahertz clock, and an input 80 which is coupled to the line 38 for receiving synchronization pulses.
The time slot assigning means 42 further includes an output 86 for enabling the decoding means for converting digitized audio to analog audio to be conveyed to the base station transmitter overline 84, and an output 82 which enables the decoding means for converting analog audio signals to digitized audio signals for placing the digitized audio onto the bus 32 within the preassigned time slot.
In operation, the control means 46 at its data input 64 senses when the system 30 is being requested to perform a given function, such as, decoding digitized audio to analog audio, generating internalized tones, generating data, or decoding analog audio to digitized audio. When the system 30 is requested to decode digitized audio to analog audio, the control means 46 will impress upon the data select inputs 58 and 60 the appropriate conditions to cause the decoding means 40 to be connected to the appropriate bus which is to carry the digitized audio information. Also, the control means 46, responsive to the data packet will set the time slot assigning means 42 to enable the decoding means when the appropriate time slot is reached. The decoding means 40, because it is coupled to the appropriate bus, is able to sense all of the digitized audio carried over that bus. However, when the appropriate time slot is reached, the time slot assigning means 42 enables the decoding means through its output 86 so that the digitized audio received by the decoding means is then decoded to analog form and available on line 84 for transmission.
If, on the other hand, the data packet received by the control means 46 indicated that the system 30 was to produce an internal audio tone for keying purposes or the like, the control means 46 will impress upon inputs 58 and 60 of select means 44 the appropriate input conditions to couple the decoding means 40 to the output 62 of shift register 48. The tone generating means within the control means 46 will then provide a parallel eight-bit binary word indicative of the tone to be generated. The shift register 48 shifts the parallel eight-bit word to its output 62 in serial manner. The now serialized eight-bit binary word is then conveyed to the select means 44 and to the decoding means 40. The decoding means 40 then decodes the eight-bit binary word representing an audio tone to an analog tone signal which is then available at line 84. The tone generating means continues, during each frame, to produce an eight-bit word representative of the tone to be produced. The composite of all of these eight-bit binary tone words decoded in the decoding means thereby results in the proper audio tone.
Hence, as can be seen from the foregoing, the system 30 utilizes the decoding means 40 for both decoding digitized audio to analog audio, and for providing analog tone signals. The control means 46 causes the select means 44 to selectively couple the decoding means 40 to either one of the buses or to the tone generating means of the control means 46. In this manner, duplication of hardware for performing these functions separately is avoided.
If the data packet received by the control means 46 requests the system 30 to place digitized audio onto the bus, the control means 46 will set the time slot assigning means 42 to enable the decoding means 40 when the preassigned time slot of the system 30 is reached on bus 32. Again, that preassigned time slot is assigned by the appropriate conditions of the eight switches 68.
When the preassigned time slot occurs, the time slot assigning means enables, through its output 82, the decoding means or codec, which include an encoder. As a result, the analog audio received from the base station at input 70 is encoded by the decoding means 40 and the eight-bit binary word representing that received audio is serially shifted onto the bus 32 through the buffer 56.
When the system 30 is to generate data, the control means 46 responsive to the data packet received at its input 64 will process the data and generate return data, such as acknowledge data. At this time, the select means 44 is disabled and the data passes from the control means 46 to the shift register 48 in a parallel binary bit word form. When the data time slot arrives, the data is passed onto the bus 32 within the dedicated data time slot by the activation of the buffer 54. The data is then serially shifted onto the bus 32.
As can be appreciated from the foregoing, the control means includes a channel time slot identification means which identifies from the received data packet the time slot in which the audio to be decoded from digital form to analog form is located on the bus system. The time slot assigning means 42 is thus coupled to the decoding means 40 and is responsive to the time slot identification means of the control means 46 for enabling the decoding means during the time slot of the channel from which the digitized audio is to be received. All of the foregoing is responsive to the data which is received over the data channel by the control means 46. The time slot identification means is responsive to the data within the data channel for identifying the time slot.
Also, the decoding means 40 includes encoding means for converting received analog signals from the base station to which the system 30 is coupled to digital multiple bit audio words. For this purpose, the decoding means 40, as previously explained, is coupled to the bus 32 through a buffer 56. The received audio, converted to digitized form, is provided to the bus 32 within a preassigned time slot as controlled by the control means and the switches 68.
From the foregoing, it can be seen that the present invention provides a system which decodes digitized audio to analog audio, converts analog audio to digitized audio, generates internal tones, and generates data, in a manner which minimizes the component parts and hardware for performing such functions. Furthermore, the system is applicable for use in conjunction with a network having a bus which carries time divided multiplex signals comprising a plurality of channels. Since the various functions performed by the system are accomplished within a minimum number of component parts, not only does a compact system result, but one with component densities which enable ready servicing should such be necessary.
Referring now to FIG. 3, it illustrates a flowchart showing the sequence of operations performed in the control means 46 for generating internal or localized tones. As can be seen, the data packet is received by the control means. The control means then processes the data by first determining whether the data indicates that the base station associated with the system of FIG. 3 is to be keyed up or not. If the answer is no, then the control means 46 assumes that audio is to be received and determines which time slot contains the audio to be received. The control means then enables the data selector or select means 44 to select the appropriate bus which will carry the indicated channel. The control means 46 then through its enable output 72 enables the time slot assignment means 42 and writes therein the number of the channel to be received. Thereafter, the enable signal is removed because the time slot assignment means is set. Each time the time slot carrying the audio to be decoded appears, the time slot assignment means 42 enables the decoding means 40 so that analog audio is provided on line 84 to the transmitter.
If the original processing of the data indicated that the base key-up was yes, the system would first generate a guard tone which tells the base station to listen. Then, the control means 46 causes the select means to couple the output 62 of shift register 48 to the decoding means 40. Then, the time slot assignment means is enabled. Then, the control means provides by output 76 a time slot number to the time slot assignment means and enables its output 86 indicating that the decoding means is to receive a multiple bit digitized word, this time indicating a tone signal. Thereafter, the time slot assignment means is disabled.
The control means 46 then determines the tone to be generated and provides the shift register 48 with an eight-bit binary word indicating the tone signal. An eight-bit binary tone word continues to be produced during each frame. The control means then determines whether the tone has been generated for a long enough period of time. If not, it continues to send, during each frame, a multiple bit word representing the tone signal. If the tone has been sent long enough, then the system operates as if the base key-up was no. That sequence previously referred then ensues. This places the base station on-line to complete the communication. This continues until the next data packet is received which can indicate termination of transmission.

Dept. of Good and Evilby Rachel Z
In the sense that democracy in bands still exits, the Dept. of Good and Evil is ostensibly the trio of pianist Rachel Z. Though bassist Maeve Royce and drummer/producer Bobbie Rae have heavy hands in making the music happen, it is the voice of Z that is front and center. Her playing in and of itself is good as gold, with a sense of purpose, resolve, melodic common sense, and daring nuances. In short, her sound is truly beautiful. Z plays no electric keyboards whatsoever, as she has in past recordings. This allows her orchestral concept to blossom fully. Occasionally some light funk or a Sting or Stevie Wonder tune creeps in, and the ethereal quality of her previous employer, Peter Gabriel, is extant. Mostly though, Z deals best in modalities, as on the outstanding version of Joe Henderson's "Inner Urge," a wry 5/4-based "Soul Meets Body," the lovely waltz time "Milky Way," and the 7/8 Chick Corea-like bounce that infuses the Miles Davis evergreen "E.S.P." A lengthy "Saint of New Orleans" is varied in dimension and stance but not as fully developed as it probably is in live performance. The clichéd trumpeting of Erik Naslund may lower the standard of this music on his occasional features, but cameo appearances by electric bass guitar master Tony Levin spark the tracks he is on. Rachel Z is very capable of a magnum opus, and though her tribute to Wayne Shorter, On the Milky Way Express, came very close, that zenith is still within her grasp and eagerly awaited. The sheer talent she possesses is clearly there, and quite evident on this effort.

→ Republicans vow to repeal Obamacare : "Repealing the law won't happen before January 2013. It would be dependent on a triple Republican victory this November: Mitt Romney would need to defeat President Barack Obama, Republicans must hold their majority in the House, and they must also gain enough seats in the Senate so they have at least 50 of their own in the upper chamber."
→ It's Now Up To Voters To Throw Out The ObamaCare Mess : "By ignoring the Constitution it swore to defend, the Supreme Court has affirmed ObamaCare, making the already important fall elections even more critical. A new president and Congress are needed to rid the country of this meddlesome law."
→ Health Care Ruling Re-Energizes Tea Party : "In upholding most of President Barack Obama's health care law, the Supreme Court handed the tea party a new lease on life."
→ Americans Are Being Prepared For Full Spectrum Tyranny : "As with the oppressive regimes of the past, America has undergone a dramatic transformation, heavy with fear and ignorance. Our tradition of elections has been corrupted and negated by the false left/right paradigm, and the leaderships of both defunct parties now seek only to elevate a select minority of men bent on globalization. Our Constitutional liberties have been dismantled by legal chicanery. Our principles have been diluted by intellectual games of rationalism and moral relativism. Our country is ripe for conquest."
→ Google Shopping Censors All Gun, Ammo & Accessories Results : Google sent out an email to Google Adwords customers saying that they are going to pull all Google Shopping results for guns, ammunition, gun optics and gun accessories (Shopping results, not general search results at least not yet).
→ Your health : Great news guys (and possibly for the ladies, 😉 ) More sex will boost male testosterone levels, aiding weight loss and health. But then some ladies would rather take matters into their own hands.
→ At Amazon.com : Save up to $250 on Nikon Digital Cameras .
→ How The Taste Of Tomatoes Went Bad (And Kept On Going) : "The tomato is the vegetable (or fruit, if you must) that we love to hate. We know how good it can be and how bad it usually is. And everybody just wants to know: How did it get that way?" Thanks to Gayle for the link…

Election Information
The 2016 Special Municipal Election will be held on Tuesday, November 8.
General Information
The 2016 ballot will be certified in late August or early September.
As of May 6, four initiative petitions have been approved for circulation. You will find their reports and contact information in the upper right hand corner under Committee Filings.
- Boulder Choices for Boulder Homes
- Boulder Voters for Term Limits
- Boulder Healthy Kids (certified sufficient)
- Legalize Boulder
Note : Review the Committee Guidelines for due dates for filing requirements.
The next City Council election will be held on November 7, 2017. The nomination petition period will run from August 8-29, 2017.
City Council elections are held on the first Tuesday in November of odd numbered years. During the designated time period in August, those interested in running for office must visit the City Clerk's Office, 1777 Broadway St., to pull a petition and fill out an information form. The campaign finance reform administrator will prepare the petition and administer an oath. Prospective candidates will then need to secure at least 25, but no more than 35, signatures of registered voters who reside within the city limits to become certified. The petition remains in the City Clerk's possession the entire time.
To run for City Council, candidates must be U.S. citizens, 21 years of age or older and a Boulder resident for at least one year immediately prior to seeking office.
Petition Signing
By signing a petition, you must affirm you are a registered elector in the City of Boulder and provide your name and address. Electors are not permitted to sign more than five petitions.
Signing Parties
If you wish to have a signing party, where all 25 people who will be signing your petition come in at once, you will need to make an advance reservation so that an area can be reserved and staff is available. Call the City Clerk's Office at 720-564-2175 to make your reservation.
Campaign Information
View Committee Filings for required filings and financial disclosures for individual issue, candidate and unofficial candidate committees.
Access Election Reports for summaries of contributions and expenditures for all committees.
Issue, Candidate, and Unofficial Candidate Committees
There are only ISSUE COMMITTEES in the 2016 election.
Review the Committee Guidelines for detailed information about these groups, including regulations and filing requirements.
Issue Committee
Two or more natural persons who collaborate together, or any corporation, partnership, commission, association, or any other organization or group of persons, that accepts contributions or makes expenditures for the purpose of opposing or supporting a ballot proposition at a city election, regardless of whether it has obtained the consent of the sponsors of the ballot proposition.
Candidate Committee
A person, including the candidate for City Council, or persons with the common purpose of receiving contributions or making expenditures under the authority of a candidate.
Unofficial Candidate Committee
Two or more natural persons who collaborate together, or any corporation, partnership, commission, association, or any other organization or group of persons, that accepts contributions or makes expenditures for the purpose of expressly advocating the election or defeat of a clearly identified candidate for City Council. An unofficial candidate committee ceases to be independent if its expenditures are in any way, directly or indirectly, controlled by, coordinated with, or made upon consultation with any candidate or candidate committee or agent thereof.
Matching Funds
For qualified candidates that are interested, the City of Boulder will match funds raised by candidate committees to help with their campaigns. Requirements and further details can be found in the Candidate Guidelines.
The Committee Guidelines contain information regarding restricted and prohibited activities during elections. Visit Campaign Finance Reform Initiative or read Employee Participation in Elections for additional information.
Restrictions on Contributions in Another's Name
Potential contributors are prohibited from making a contribution in someone else's name. Candidates and committees are prohibited from knowingly accepting a contribution from one person in the name of another person ( BRC 13-3-4 ).
Restrictions on Increased Fees for Municipal Election Advertising
City code states that candidates and committees cannot be charged more for space in newspapers or magazines to be used in connection with a municipal election, than would be charged for the comparable use of the space for other purposes (BRC 13-2-2) .
Restrictions on Representation of Campaign Authority
Candidates, political committees and their agents are prohibited from making any fraudulent misrepresentations or acting for or on behalf of another candidate or committee on a matter that is damaging to the other candidate or committee. Knowingly participating in or conspiring in a plan to do so also is prohibited (BRC 13-3-6)Violations and Complaints
Any registered elector of the City of Boulder who believes there has been a violation of the Campaign Finance Reform Initiative may file a written complaint with this form and send it to the City Clerk's Office. The completed form must identify the perceived violation of the Boulder Revised Code (BRC). The City Clerk's Office will respond to the person filing the complaint within 10 days.
For more information, contact the campaign finance administrator at firstname.lastname@example.com or call the City Clerk's Office at 303-441-4222. To report sign code violations, call Code Enforcement at 303-441-3333.

roboklerk, I disagree with your comment that 'any work being awarded by the government is "gravy"'. In reality government work is their bread and butter. 84% of 2011 revenues was the federal government.And I'm not so sure that SEHC was 'a steal'. Read through the 10-K and cruch the #'s. Looks like SEHC was in a tailspin at the time of its acquisition. Still a very risky deal for PESI - could go either way.
guess I should have said any Incremental work being awarded by the government is gravy IMO. Did not expect a big project like this near a half billion dollars coming up for bid and right in PESI's wheelhouse.As for SEH, they got it without share dilution (except for a few shares purchased by the former head of SEH as I recall to keep him motivated in the combined entity). The interest on the debt used to acquire it has to be maybe $1 million annually or less. I am just figuring they can at least run that business at breakeven and wring out over $ 1 million annually in redundant costs between the two entities w/a combined revenue of at least $160 million. We will see. At $1.50 per share I view PESI as no worse than a call stock option w/o expiration. It goes as a given that priced at $1.50 there is risk involved. I like managements that make bold moves, but this is a small part of an otherwise well-diversified portfolio.
