Access expected to go into effect April 24

The newly purchased portion of the Chapman Drive Trail starts at Boulder Canyon roughly at the location of the Red Lion Restaurant and proceeds south, uphill for approximately 1.4 miles.chapmandrive

 

 

OSBT recommended that council designate this portion of property as a Habitat Conservation Area (HCA). The guidance from OSBT included the following uses by visitors:

 

  • Mountain bike travel up and down, on trail, from Boulder Canyon to Flagstaff Road;
  • Dogs allowed, on leash and on trail, from Boulder Canyon to the junction with the Tenderfoot Trail; and
  • Voice and sight control for dogs permitted from the Tenderfoot junction to Flagstaff Road.

 

Staff is currently in the process of working with the City Attorney’s Office to finalize these proposed uses.  Once finalized, there will be a 15-day comment period for public feedback. Unless significant changes are necessary after the input process, access is expected to begin, pursuant to these guidelines, around April 24.

 

Please check the OSMP.org web site for updates about this process and watch for signage at the trailhead soon. For more information about these changes, contact Jean Koszalka at 303-413-7622.
