The City's project team is still undergoing the final design phase for the City Park segment of this project so we are still determining the trail and recreation amenities that will come at the completion of the stream bank work. At this time, our proposed trail alignment calls for a ten-foot-wide concrete trail with a parallel, attached five-foot-wide soft trail. We plan to have a public open house in July to discuss the project and that design in more detail. Join our email list to receive notifications for the open house.

This pond has been drained to prepare for upcoming construction in this area. The pond will be removed to enable construction crews to reroute Big Dry Creek through this area and reinstate a natural curvature in the creek to help slow the water, preventing erosion. A new storm water pond will be added in this area

Fish, turtles and other aquatic species were removed from the pond prior to draining the pond. The City and its contractor worked with Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) to obtain the proper permitting and procedures. Turtles and non-native fish were donated to the Colorado Gators Reptile Park in Mosca, Colorado.

Water quality or stormwater detention ponds are shallow depressions designed to filter pollutants from stormwater runoff before the runoff enters the nearby waterways. The ponds will be dry most of the time except following rainstorms. Any water in the ponds will drain via a spillway or outlet structure over the course of several days following the storm.
