The Arapahoe County Open Space Plan

Project Description > In 2003, voters approved a countywide .25 percent sales tax to pay for the preservation of open space in Arapahoe County. The tax is used to preserve urban and rural open space and natural areas; protect lands that preserve water quality in rivers, lakes and streams; provide, maintain and improve neighborhood parks, open space, sports fields, picnic facilities and multi-use trails; protect wildlife habitat and corridors; preserve agriculture and ranch lands and enhance and maintain designated heritage areas. Greenways Incorporated is leading an effort to develop an official Open Space Plan to guide the program through implementation of its priorities. Sign up to receive Master Plan updates by email.
