Restoring and Preserving Wildlife Habitat

Fund­ing from mit­i­ga­tion projects helps restore and pre­serve habi­tat for many species of wildlife. With each new project, park vis­i­tors are pro­vided oppor­tu­ni­ties for nature obser­va­tion and envi­ron­men­tal education.

Through mit­i­ga­tion fund­ing, the Park Dis­trict has pro­tected eco­log­i­cally sen­si­tive stream and river cor­ri­dors, planted thou­sands of native trees in for­mer agri­cul­tural fields, and suc­cess­fully restored wet­land habi­tat vital to many species of wildlife.
