2007 Green Omaha Goals

A Complete Trail System

  • Complete initial section of the Keystone Trail’s north extension that will eventually link the Sorensen Parkway Trail with the Keystone Trail. 

  • Complete a design study and cost estimates for the Keystone east connector that will connect the Keystone Trail to the Field Club Trail.

  • Initiate/complete construction on the Standing Bear Lake Loop Trail. 
     
  • Update the Suburban Park Master Plan to reflect new trails associated with the proposed Dam Sites.  This will include a perimeter trail around Dam sites 13 and 15. 

Preservation of Landscape at the City’s Edge

  • Take measures to continue current growth management policies as development expands westward.

  • Update the Suburban Park Master Plan and incorporate it into the Green Omaha component of the Urban Design Element of the Omaha Master Plan. 

  • Create a non-profit Omaha Landscape Conservancy to accept donations and perform services for the City’s park system and other natural landscape areas. 

Green Streets

  • Create a task force to prepare and complete a Green Streets Master Plan.
