TFNU’s mission is to plan, promote, construct, maintain and protect a network of public pathways, trails, and related open spaces for non-motorized users throughout Northern Utah.
The Behnken family has generously donated about 100 acres of property east of the top of 27th street to TFNU with the stipulation that it remain open space and be available to the general public. This means that this property will never be developed for commercial use.
As a homeowner living on or near 27th street you know better than most that parking and access to the trails above 27th street can be an issue. One of the things that the Behnken family wanted TFNU to do is explore the development of an official trailhead with parking on the property.
We have developed a plan for the parking area after feedback from the local neighbors and are in the process of obtaining grants to fund the project. We are hopeful that we can begin the project this summer.
As folks living in the immediate area, we welcome your feedback and invite you to reach out with questions or comments via email at [email protected] We’ll also post updates to our website as plans progress, visit us at www.tfnu.org/27thstreet.
