This meeting will focus on the draft Public Access & Trail Access Concept Plan Map, which be incorporated as one component of the Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park Land Use Plan.
The EBRPD Planning and Stewardship Department is currently preparing a Land Use Plan for Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park. To date, there have been two opportunities for community input into the planning process, the June 2009 scoping meeting and the 2009 on-site trail use survey. The link to summaries of the community scoping meeting and on-site survey is provided below.
The draft Land Use Plan proposes:
• Two (2) new staging areas
• A network of multi-use trails for bicyclists, equestrians, hikers and dog walkers combining narrow and service road width trails that will provide access to 2,000 additional acres of open space expanding the parklands that will be open to the public from 5,200 acres to 7,300 acres
• New picnic and back country interpretive and camping opportunities
• Overall better visible signage of trails and interpretive features
• Removal and restoration of sites with unsafe or environmentally unsustainable “bootlegged” trails. Wed, 6 Apr 2011
