The Boulder City Podcast and Boulder City Social have joined forces to present a series of podcasts with candidates for the City Council of Boulder City. In light of the lack of public forums during the pandemic, we hope that these podcasts will help voters meet the candidates, understand their views and opinions, and guide their votes in the upcoming election on April 6. If no one achieves 50 percent of the vote on April 6, the top four vote getters will be involved in a later runoff.

This week, Boulder City resident Charles Bullen sits down for a chat about his candidacy for the City Council of Boulder City. A veteran of the United States Air Force, Bullen moved to Boulder City in 2008 and is now a supervisor at Hoover Dam. He wants the city to do more to support small businesses and develop a master plan as a path to the future.
