Big Thompson Recreation Plan: Online Survey

Larimer County, the City of Loveland and partners are undertaking an assessment of recreation and conservation opportunities along the Big Thompson River. The extreme flooding that occurred along the river in September 2013 resulted in severe erosion, extensive damage to property and infrastructure, and loss of significant economic, riparian, aquatic, and scenic resources. Nearly all of the highly used federal, state, county, and city recreation facilities were extensively damaged.

Through this Recreation and Conservation Assessment, Larimer County and the City of Loveland will work collaboratively with public, agencies, private and non-profit sectors to:

• Assess existing protected lands and identify the feasibility and priorities for conserving additional lands within the Big Thompson corridor;
• Assess existing recreation amenities and identify the feasibility for future recreational access via public property within the Big Thompson corridor; and
• Assign a priority, funding sources, and agency responsibilities to potential projects.
