PITKIN COUNTY HEALTHY RIVERS

​Pitkin County Healthy Rivers is making improvements to Fisherman's Park (Basalt) and adding a boardwalk connection to the Roaring Fork Whitewater Park! Construction will begin August 15th, 2022 and continue through late fall/early winter 2022... Pitkin County voters reaffirmed their commitment to protecting the natural environment and our water resources by overwhelmingly passing the Healthy Rivers and Streams tax, even as the stock market was crashing. - Rachel E. Richards... Court-appointed public defenders for water didn't exist, and we were dependent on the good graces of outside entities and other communities to look out for our watershed's best interests. Our approach needed to change, we needed to take greater control of our water future. Yet, getting to that place, to being truly proactive would take time, strategy, and money.
