COUNCIL
ON
In 1995, the Delaware General Assembly established
the Council on Greenways and Trails to foster a cooperative effort
to preserve, protect and link our green open spaces.
The Council acts in an advisory capacity to the Secretary of the
Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC),
and encourages local communities, counties, and state agencies
to create greenway links to serve environmental and recreational
needs
of Delaware citizens. Applications for the greenway
& trail grants from the Delaware Land and Water Conservation
Trust Fund are reviewed and approved by this Council.
In order to meet its objectives, the Council works closely with
public and private organizations throughout the State. The Council
works to incorporate greenway projects into a comprehensive state
greenway network, and acts as a resource for all organizations
who
wish to enhance their neighborhoods by linking open spaces.
Anyone interested in attending Council meetings
can call the Division of Parks and Recreation at (302) 739-9235
for more information.
