Planning Process
Throughout 2019-20, Great Rivers Greenway, partners, and community members engaged in a planning process to prioritize greenway investments in St. Charles County. With your help, we developed an updated St. Charles County greenway map with prioritized projects and partnership models for building greenways.
To create this plan, we gathered and analyzed your feedback on where you would like to connect to on a greenway and your priorities for your greenway experience. We heard what you told us about the criteria that are most important for evaluating greenways and what you like/dislike about the proposed greenway routes. We used what we heard to refine the proposed greenway routes.
Project Phases
DATA COLLECTION – Complete
Tell us what greenway experiences are most important to you and where you’d like to connect to on a greenway. We’ll combine this information with the information we gather n natural and manmade conditions, cultural and historic resources, transportation routes, existing studies and reports of the area, and existing greenway alignments.
ANALYSIS – Complete
We’ll report back on what we heard are greenway experience priorities and where people would like to connect to on a greenway.
CONCEPTS – Complete
Let us know how you value the criteria for evaluating greenways and what you like/dislike about the proposed greenway routes.
REFINEMENT – Complete
Tell us whether the greenway alignments and priorities are correct based on the data collected, greenway evaluation, and what we’ve heard from you.
GREENWAY PLAN – Complete
We’ll present the final recommendations for greenway alignments, prioritized phases, and partnership models for each alignment.
