About the Strategic Trails Plan
Adopted in 2025, the Strategic Trails Plan updates the work started in the City’s 2013 Paved Recreational Trail Master Plan. The new framework drafted in the STP informs the future planning, design, maintenance and preservation of the recreational paved trail system.
