Open Space
And Trails Mission Statement
The Open Space and Trails staff is committed to:
Enhancing the community’s quality of life by acquiring open space to
preserve water resources, wildlife, agricultural uses, and unique
geographic features so that every resident is able to have a positive
connection with the natural environment.
Creating a comprehensive network of trails so that every citizen has the
opportunity to walk and bicycle to open space, parks, neighborhoods,
schools, commercial centers, and public facilities throughout the
community.
