Architectural Engineer Jon Noyes reviewed the project timeline for the Rose Oaks master plan process,
along with the notices published in the local newspapers.
Commission received 23 comments throughout the comment period. Of the 23 comments received, 22
focused on the proposed equestrian use of the park and one indicated concerns over the use of the park
for hunting and fishing.
The master plan includes the current 3.7 miles of trails, of which 3.3 miles are accessible to equestrian
use. The future equestrian access to the additional 4.6 miles of proposed trails will be considered based on
an evaluation of the impact of the regular equine use of the existing trails.
Future features of the master plan include: proposed open archery hunting, fishing in the five largest lakes,
0.5 mile of equestrian single track along the Fish Lake Road power line corridor, and asphalt trails with
mowed shoulders.
