The statewide trails planning process will include a series of issue scoping workshops held in locations across the state. The following type of information will be gathered for each of the 3 trails planning components (motorized, non-motorized and water):
- Identification of regional trail issues
- Identification of regional trail needs
- Identification of potential trail development opportunities
In a cost-savings effort (e.g. to reduce meeting administrative and travel costs), each workshop session will address issues, needs and trail development opportunities associated with motorized, non-motorized and water trails in the planning region. The format of each workshop will allow adequate time for discussion of each of these 3 trail types and topics.
Early in the trails planning process, OPRD staff identified a total of 6 regions for the trails planning effort. Each region is of sufficient geographic area to have a unique set of trail related issues and associated management concerns. A series of issues workshops have been scheduled for locations in each of these regions:
Daytime sessions (11 am to 4:30 p.m). will be open to all public-sector
recreation providers within the region. These providers include all federal
and state agencies, county, municipal, port and special district recreation
departments, and Native American Tribes.
Evening sessions (6 pm to 8 pm) will be open to the general public including interested members of the public, trail user groups or clubs, commercial organizations (e.g., guides, outfitters, sports equipment retailers), or any other organizations of persons interested in providing trail-related issues, needs and opportunities within the planning region.
