Welcome
The Honor Farm Park
& Open Space Master Plan
was
adopted on 
November 12, 2007 by the Pueblo
City Council creating
a long-term plan for uses, features, and amenities,
open space and management of the 2,373-acre park and open space
area located south of US Highway 50 West and west of Pueblo Blvd.
The property was purchased by the City of Pueblo from the State of
Colorado in 2001.
Working under the provisions of a Conservation
Easement Agreement granted to the State of Colorado, the master plan sets
the framework for the responsible management and uses of the land.
The plan identifies a balance of appropriate uses of the property and
provides for the protection and preservation of open space.

City Council Adopts
Honor Farm
Master Plan
The Pueblo City Council after over a
year of public workshops and meetings adopted the Honor Farm Park and
Open Space Master Plan on November 12, 2007. The master plan was developed
by the Honor Farm Master Plan Advisory Committee comprised of 12 members
appointed by the Pueblo City Council representing a variety of recreational, neighborhood,
and other public interests. The Advisory Committee in conjunction with city
staff and contracted consultants completed the master plan establishing a long-term
implementation strategy for uses, features, and amenities, parks, open space and
management of the 2,373-acre park and open space area. The City
of Pueblo Planning and Zoning Commission endorsed the plan in October,
2007.
The master plan includes the
designation of different park and open space uses of the property, a plan
for the realignment of the park boundaries to allow for the acquisition of
the privately owned in-holdings, the general location for future roadways
connecting between Pueblo West and Pueblo Blvd., a project implementation
plan and schedule, projected costs for park and open space improvements, a
projected cost for operation and management, and operation and management
recommendations.
