Boulder Walmart to close

BOULDER — Walmart’s Neighborhood Market at 2972 Iris Ave. is slated to close June 16, reports the Daily Camera.

The 53,500 square-foot store was protested when it opened less than four years ago, but is now closing because of changes in retail, a Walmart spokesperson said.

No other closures are planned, and the 70 Boulder employees will have the option to transfer to a nearby store. Walmart has locations in Lafayette, Broomfield and Longmont.
