The project will emphasize the use and preservation of important open spaces and buildings for historical, educational, recreational and aesthetic reasons. This first phase of the project involves raising community awareness, envisioning and then producing a plan. The plan will describe in considerable detail what is needed to realize the project s mission. While volunteers have already contributed hundreds of hours to the project, volunteers cannot substitute for the services of an experienced land design professional. Already, the work on the attached maps by a leading land designer has translated our general concepts into plans that are understood and encourage people to dream about what could be.
Deep River is blessed with an abundance of open space.
We appreciate the value of open space and the sense of community we enjoy. We must make sure we take action to make sure our town retains its rural small town character. This project looks to identify, link and secure important open spaces for the benefit of both people and nature. Preserving our vistas, enhancing our rural aesthetics, living in harmony with nature improves our quality of life. It makes good economic sense too .
