Section Five: Planning Recommendations

5.2 - Public Involvement

The County Should:

Encourage and maximize active public involvement in all phases of trails establishment and support public efforts directed at implementation of the Trails Plan.

Place the major responsibility for Trails Plan implementation with public volunteer groups interested in trails development so to reduce County staff support time needed to implement the Trails Plan.

Establish a permanent Trails Advisory Committee to advise and work actively with County staff in the planning, implementation, maintenance, promotion, and up-dating of the Trails Master Plan.

Encourage private sector involvement in the trails program through the provision of facilities and support services such as boarding and rental stables, maintenance and repair shops, trail tours, bicycle rentals, etc.

Promote a "sense of community" by encouraging public participation in all phases of establishing community trails.
