Draft Master Plan Now Available
The first draft of the 2008 Denver Mountain Parks Master Plan is available for public review and comment. This 14,000-acre mountain park system, spread across four counties, has inspired awe as well as controversy since its inception in 1912. A fifty-member, multi-county Task Force, chaired by Councilwoman Peggy Lehmann and civic leader Landri Taylor, oversaw the 12 months of public input, research, and planning. The goals of the Master Plan are to:
- establish how often Denver residents use Denver Mountain Parks and whether they consider them important to their quality of life
- create a solid plan of stewardship—funding, communications, and regional partnerships
- chart ten years of improvements, such as new trails and programs for kids
Comments will be taken until September 19, 2008. A presentation of the plan is scheduled for the September 13, 2008, INC meeting. The plan will be presented for approval to the DPR Advisory Board and City Council in October.
