Open Space Planner

The natural environment is a chief ingredient in defining many urban regions’ character - making it one of the most attractive and inviting aspects for communities. Open space planners play a key role shaping growth and preserving open space land.  As needed growth continues, a comprehensive plan to protect the community’s most vulnerable natural areas and significant open spaces becomes a necessity.

Recent studies throughout the country have debunked the myth that conservation and development are inherently at odds. The fact is that open space conservation is good for everyone - residents, property owners, visitors, and businesses alike - and the bottom line. This is a fact that many communities clearly recognize. 

Master plans are developed to serve as the guiding vision to direct land use and stewardship, natural resource enhancement, and the development of trails, staging areas, and other low-intensity recreational facilities within preserves. Master plans include a resource management element that provides an inventory and analysis of significant resources, and recommendations for resource management activities.

Site-specific resource management plans are intended for areas or preserves that have unique natural conditions or resource issues. Subject-specific resource management plans may be generated to address a high priority or urgent resource protection issue such as endangered species habitat preservation. 

Region-wide resource data is continually collected on vegetation, soils and geology, hydrology, sensitive plants and animals, and cultural resources. These subjects can be analyzed alone and in combination to identify important land management priorities.
