Volunteers Needed to Serve on the New Town of Keystone Trails and Open Space Advisory Board
The Town of Keystone Community Development Department is recruiting community minded citizens to fill openings on the Town of Keystone Trails and Open Space Advisory Board. The Advisory Board will advise the Town Council on the Town's open space, trails, parks and recreation projects.
The advisory board members will assess the state of the trails, open space, parks and recreation facilities inside the town, as well as those forest service trails which connect to the town and make recommendations to the Town Manager and Town Council for future maintenance and development needs. Initially, the Advisory Board will provide input to the trails and open space portion of the town's comprehensive plan which is being developed by the Community Development Department. After adoption of the Comprehensive Plan, the Advisory Board will lead the effort with consultant support to develop a Town Trails and Open Space Master Plan which will lay out the long-term vision for the future development and use of trails and open space in the town, funding requirements and potential sources of funds to make the vision a reality.
Meetings will be held once quarterly in the evenings. Additional special meetings and field trips are held periodically. Members of the Trails and Open Space Advisory Board shall be property owners or residents of the Town of Keystone. If you are interested, be prepared to commit approximately 5-7 hours to prepare for and attend meetings.
To apply, send a letter stating your interest and background to the Community Development Department, 1628 Sts. John Road, Keystone, CO 80435 or via email to LHirsh@keystoneco.gov Letters must be received by April 18, 2025. Interviews will be held in late April.
