City seeking community input on final Greater Observatory Mesa Trail Plan Draft

The City of Flagstaff is seeking public input on the third and final draft of the Greater Observatory Mesa Trail Plan. Members of the public are invited to review the plan, learn how it may affect them, and provide input for the City Council's consideration. Details on how to participate are listed below.

Public Forum

• Wednesday, Sept. 19, 2024 from 5 - 7 p.m.
• Flagstaff City-Coconino County Downtown Public Library (300 West Aspen Ave.)
• This is an opportunity to learn how the trail plan was developed, review the plan, and provide input for city council's consideration.

Virtual Survey

• Comment Period: Sept. 4 - October 18, 2024
• Link: www.flagstaff.az.gov/4870
• The survey will describe how the trail plan was developed, allow respondents to review the plan, and provide input for City Council's consideration.

The Public Forum and Virtual Survey represent the final phase of community review for the Greater Observatory Mesa Trail Plan. The City has held two public comment periods for the plan's first and second drafts through online surveys and two public meetings. Since then, community input has been used to develop this third and final draft of the trail plan. This draft plan can be viewed at www.flagstaff.az.gov/4870

The Greater Observatory Mesa Trail Plan's purpose is to design a trail system for implementation in the Greater Observatory Mesa Natural Area. The plan includes recommendations for restoration and defines appropriate uses of a final completed trail system. The City of Flagstaff will use the final plan to direct future management and trail implementation.

For questions on the Greater Observatory Mesa Trail Plan or the upcoming community input opportunities, please contact Robert Wallace at [email protected].
