Taylor Mountain Update

On July 13, at the site of the future Taylor Mountain Park, Sonoma County Open Space District and Regional Parks staff and Third District Supervisor Shirlee Zane introduced a revised Interim Access Plan to allow public access while a Master Plan for the property is prepared. The revised Access Plan will allow hikers, cyclists and equestrians to use the existing ranch road to get to the top of the mountain. Access will be limited to those with a permit obtained by participating in an orientation meeting. This access program, similar to the current program at Willow Creek, will be managed by LandPaths.  The access program is proposed to start this fall, after the CEQA documentation is completed. The SCTC will stay involved with the Interim Access Plan and the Master Plan process.
