On Thursday, June 4 from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. the City of Stillwater will host a public open house to review the Trails Master Plan draft. The City will present a 30-45 minute presentation of the Trails Master Plan draft with an open question and comment period to follow. All members of the public are encouraged to attend.
Over the past twelve months the Stillwater Planning and Parks Commissions have been developing the framework for an update to the City’s 2000 Trails Master Plan. The vision of the draft plan is to “Build on Stillwater’s history and natural setting to become a leading active transportation community and one of Minnesota’s premier trail destinations.” The five guiding principles of the draft plan are community, connections, accessibility, communication and safety.
The plan addresses goals and policies, outlines existing conditions of the municipal trail system, identifies needs and opportunities to propose network improvements, addresses non-infrastructure recommendations as well as establishes an implementation strategy. The plan, once adopted, will amend the City’s Comprehensive Plan, building a framework for a complete pedestrian and bicycle network through the community. The plan will be integrated into future development activities until 2040.
