Overview
As urban growth and recreational pressures increase in and around Lafayette, the City's Open Space Division is beginning a process to develop the City's first Wildlife Plan to guide the preservation of local wildlife and ecosystems.
The purpose of this plan is to address wildlife conservation holistically through the lens of wildlife equity. In other words, if you were a fox living near Old Town, what kind of protections would you want to see in place to protect your home and family?
The City onboarded Biohabitats, Inc. to conduct thorough ecological assessments, gather community input, and create a plan that addresses wildlife conservation through actionable steps and protection measures.
