Chehalem Heritage Trails - That's the official name of the proposed 77-mile trail system CPRD is working on. Monday night, Sept. 20th, ten members of the new advisory committee met to work on the first segment of the trail, which will connect Newberg and Dundee through Dayton Avenue and Hess Creek.
City administration from Newberg and Dundee, ODOT, Oregon State Parks, the Newberg School District, and Champoeg State Park were represented in the inaugural meeting. One thing they did was decide on the official name of the trail system itself. Discussion opened up on the theme and the names of the other trails included in the master plan. Public input is welcome. Leave your comments below - Should the trails be named on a historical theme, an agricultural theme, or something else?
Beyond identity, the committee examined the proposed trail alignments, discussed possible tie-ins with federal programs, and the objectives of the project. The next meeting will be a bus tour of the proposed trail route.
