Kane County approves five-year Cedar Mountain Trails maintenance agreement
Summary
The commission approved a five-year Cedar Mountain Trails Management Agreement focused on trail maintenance, beginning with safety and intersection work near Duck Creek Village and coordination with UDOT for traffic control and equipment.
Kane County commissioners approved a five-year Cedar Mountain Trails Management Agreement on May 12 that lays out trail maintenance work intended to benefit both visitors and residents. County staff member 'Bert' described a first-year plan emphasizing work at the intersection where the trail crosses Highway 14 near Duck Creek Village and said UDOT will participate by providing flaggers and potentially heavy equipment.
The agreement aims to create a routable maintenance plan so county crews can blade and maintain trails over a five-year period. The commission approved the agreement on a unanimous vote.
Why it matters: improved trail maintenance enhances visitor safety, reduces roadside hazards on highways where trails cross, and supports local tourism economies dependent on outdoor recreation.
Staff will coordinate with UDOT and county public-works crews on first-year improvements.
