Overview

Here's where you can learn more about open space and current projects: Corrral Bluffs Open Space, Red Rock Canyon Open Space, Manitou Springs Section 16, White Acres and the Mt. Manitou Incline. We also offer infomation about Blodgett Peak, High Chaparral, Stratton, Bluestem Prairie and Austin Bluffs open spaces.

CANDIDATE AREAS: Many Pikes Peak area municipalities and both El Paso and Teller counties have identified lands worthy of preservation in their open space plans. Identification of open land as a candidate area does not necessarily mean it will be preserved. Many factors must first be considered: conservation values, need, public support, funding, availability, timing and usage are just a few.

OPEN SPACE CONSERVATION METHODS: There are a number of ways to preserve open space: fee simple purchase, donation, dedication, conservation easement, purchase/ transfer of development rights, lease with option to buy, leases and management agreements, purchase and leaseback, limited or joint venture development, options and rights-of-first refusal, undivided interests, remainder interests, conservation investors, exchange and installment sales.
