County Parks Master Plan
The Teller County Division of Parks was established in 1996. In 1997, with funding support from Great Outdoors Colorado, the Division developed the 1st Master Plan for Parks, Trails and Open Space. The Plan was adopted by the Teller County Planning Commission as an advisory element of the county-wide Master Plan. This first Master Plan proved to be a valuable tool for planning, policy development and development of certain parks and trails. The original plan also proved useful as support for grant funding to complete many projects.
