text: I recall a previous post that asks a good question:  "If large oil deposit located under Cherry Creek, do you think Extraction would occur?   The rigs could be setup in parks, etc.".   Answer:  NO.   The Money and Political influence of the residents in area would prevent (ie. money always wins...).  The residents of Broomfield and Adams County simply don't have enough money to compete with political system, local elections, and O&G lobbying efforts at state capitol.   reference: local funding $350k+ against Prop 301.  this does not include the millions and millions spent on lobbying across the state by O&G.
