OUR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT IN THE SPOTLIGHT!

CLAREMONT HILLS WILDERNESS PARK
DRAFT MASTER PLAN COMMUNITY MEETING
TONIGHT
! Monday September 28, 2015  | 6:00 - 9:00 PM | Taylor Hall, 1775 N. Indian Hill Blvd.

The City has contracted with a consultant to work with staff and the community to prepare a comprehensive master plan for the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park (CHWP). The master plan will update the current management plan for the City-owned hillside wilderness area and incorporate the various documents and agreements that guide the operation and maintenance of the almost 2,000-acre preserve. The goal is to create a unified vision for the CHWP that balances environmental conservation with passive trail use. This vision will be achieved through community participation and dialogue.

The City is inviting individuals and groups with an interest in the future of the wilderness area to share their comments and concerns. The City will use this input to develop the Master Plan.  Click on image below to link to the City of Claremont information page.
