WARRENTON TRAILS ASSOCIATION
STATEMENT
Our Vision: To create,
enhance and support maintenance of a 25 mile, multiuse trail loop through historically
significant public land areas within the City of
Our
Our Goals: To enhance
the City of Warrenton's and surrounding area's livability by developing a
continuous trail system that would use the existing Warrenton waterfront trail
as a bench mark and connect to the existing Fort Stevens State Park trail, the
future Fort Clatsop to Sea trail, the Warrenton dike and all the areas in
between into an approximate 25 multiuse trail loop.
Goal
#1 - To develop a Concept Paper that
describes the approximate 25 mile trail loop.
The concept paper would define each segment, objectives of needed
improvements, and opportunities of users, road conditions, traffic and safety
issues, signage needs, convenience facilities, accessibility, maintenance and
beautification requirements.
Goal
#2 - To identify all stakeholders who have a specific interest in this project,
to include landowners of the proposed trail, nearby landowners, City, County
and State agencies who have an interest in its development and the trail
users.
Goal
#3 - To inventory each trail section to include specific information about the
existing land structure, under what jurisdiction land travels, improvements
needed and priority of success. (See concept paper for specific trail
information)
Goal
#4 - To promote public and private partnership support for the trail, by
educating the stakeholders, community members and users through access to the
natural ecosystems of the rivers, sloughs and ocean; establishing fundraising
efforts; and promote the historical significance of our area through
interpretative signage.
