    5. PENNYPACK PARK MASTER PLAN Fairmount Park System Natural Lands Restoration Master Plan Mainstem of Pennypack Creek. 5.A. T ASKS A SSOCIATED W ITH R ESTORATION A CTIVITIES 5.A.1. Introduction The project to prepare a natural lands restoration master plan for Pennypack Park began in October 1997. Numerous site visits were conducted in Pennypack Park with the Fairmount Park Commission (FPC) District #5 Manager and staff, community members, Natural Lands Restoration and Environmental Education Program (NLREEP) and ANSP staff. Informal meetings at the Park’s district office were held to solicit information and opinions, and ANSP participated in the NLREEP Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meetings in March and October 1998. These meetings were used to solicit ideas and develop contacts with other environmental scientists and land managers. A meeting was also held with ANSP, NLREEP and FPC engineering staff to discuss completed and planned projects in, or affecting, the natural lands in Pennypack Park. A variety of informal contacts, such as speaking at meetings of Friends groups and other clubs and discussions during field visits provided additional input. ANSP, NLREEP and the Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) set up a program of quarterly meetings to discuss various issues of joint interest. These meetings are valuable in obtaining information useful in planning restoration and in developing concepts for cooperative programs. As a result of these meetings, PWD staff reviewed the list of priority stream restoration sites proposed for the Pennypack Park. 5.A.2. Community Meetings As part of the planning process, NLREEP held two community meetings and conducted a community mapping initiative to solicit citizen attitudes and information on park use and conditions.

  • Open Space and Chapter 4: Trails and Pathways
    OpenChapter Space 3 Over the last decade, Montgomery County’s open space efforts and land preservation strategies have focused on the creation of an open space system for future generations to enjoy. The county’s “open space system” approach uses different open space components as building blocks for a network of interrelated lands and trails. These components include protected natural areas, greenways, county parks and historic sites, trail corridors, preserved farmland, and cultural and historic landscapes. Scenic views and vistas are a common element of all of the open space components. This system of county open space is part of a network that includes existing and future regional open space initiatives, federal and state open space lands, and lands protected by local municipalities and private organi- zations. Montgomery County has already accumulated many of these building blocks, and a growing open space network has begun to take shape due to the combined efforts of the county, federal, state, and local governments, strong partnerships with conser- vation organizations, and many energetic and determined citizen advocates. The first part of this chapter describes the existing open space resources within Montgomery County and available through- out the immediate region. This open space includes permanently preserved land (publicly accessible parkland, natural areas, and greenways) and perma- nently preserved private open space. Trails, farm- land, and historic/cultural resources are covered in detail in subsequent chapters. Montgomery County has a growing open space network. The second part of this chapter describes the strategies, actions, and collaborations that form the plan for completing the open space system.
