|
| | | | | | | | ITEM/TOPIC: Update on Gore Creek Stream Tract
|
| | | | | | | | PRESENTER(S): Pete Wadden, Water Quality Education Coordinator
|
| | | | | | | | ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL: No action is requested.
|
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND: Town Environmental Staff will update Town Council on progress made in eliminating stream tract encroachments and restoring riparian buffers on town-owned property. The Town of Vail owns approximately 40% of the stream frontage on Gore Creek in Vail. Much of this designated stream tract is between private property and Gore Creek. In many locations, adjacent private property owners have treated town property as an extension of their yard by mowing, landscaping, hardscaping and storing materials on this public property. Town environmental staff have worked diligently in recent years to identify encroachments on public stream tract and work with property owners to remove these encroachments.
