OPEN SPACE: Durango has been singled out as one of the bright spots in conservation efforts to keep open space beyond the reach of development.
In a report released last Monday, the Colorado Conservation Trust cites approval by Durango voters last year of a half-cent sales tax, half of which is to be spent on open space, parks and trails. The levy is expected to raise $6.2 million annually for conservation purposes.
The report on conservation activities last year also noted the acquisition by Durango of the 177 acre Jacobs Cliffs property on Animas Mountain that is to become Dalla Mountain Park after
the owner of the land.
It feels good to live in and be a part of a community where the citizens care about maintaining the beauty that surrounds us. Thank you Durango!
