Walkers at Broomfield Trail Adventure
Plaster Reservoir
The Broomfield comprehensive Plan has the ambitious goal of preserving 40% of the community
as open lands. Open lands refers to both open space and park lands. The 40% goal would preserve 9,554 acres of open lands.
At this time, Broomfield has a total of 7,695 acres of open lands. The strategy is to meet the balance of 8% through purchase
of land, joint acquisitions with other communities, the public land dedication, and other innovative funding efforts. The
current breakdown of open lands and trails, as of February 2009, is shown below.
