Document Description
The project is the adoption of the Ruffin Canyon Open Space Trails Plan which proposes the expansion of an existing trail system. The Plan would provide a cohesive trail plan for Ruffin Canyon Open Space and provide connection between the Serra Mesa and Mission Valley Communities. The Plan provides guidance for the present and future use and maintenance of the trails within the Plan Area. Trails in this plan are open to pedestrian and bicycle users. The proposed project would create a new alignment in the southern section of the canyon where individuals are currently using a sewer access path that does not serve as a safe and sustainable trail for public use. In addition, the report addresses the permitting of three existing trails within Ruffin Canyon. The project consists of approximately 2,658 feet of new trail within Ruffin Canyon, heading south from the intersection of the existing Ruffin Canyon and Shawn Canyon trails. In addition to the new trail construction, the study area includes permitting of the existing trial located in the upper section of Ruffin Canyon.
