Park System Master Plan
Every ten years or so the Parks Department updates the Park System Master Plan. This process has been underway for many months and the department is seeking citizen inputs. There is a specific mention of a “5 year prioritization plan for the Garden of the Gods” on page 92, but that is not the only reason we should be interested in it.
As users of the city’s many parks, trails, and open spaces, and as taxpayers that support this system, expressing our opinions is a civic duty and right. Surveys can be submitted until Sept 22.
Even just reading the executive summary or the one-pager will give you a good idea about the main points covered by the plan. Please consider it.
Approximately 300 million years of geologic history is exposed by following the Gateway Trail into the Park.
