GREENWAYS & RESOURCES
PLANNING

Robert L. Beckett, Director
974-7656

Greenways and Resources Planning originated as
Land Planning Services and received its present name
in 1991. The unit provides planning, mapping, en-
vironmentat review, and capital budget services to help
the Department acquire, develop, and manage public
lands and scenic rivers. These services are offered
through the Resources Planning Section and
Regional Support Services.
The Resources Planning Section develops master
plans for new State parks or for recreational use and
modification of existing State parks. The Section also
conducts detailed property reviews for proposed new
Department areas and environmental reviews for
many Department projects and lands. In addition, the
Section develops master facilities plans for areas
without approved master plans.
The Resources Planning Section prepares resource
management plans for the nine rivers of the scenic and
wild rivers system to promote the wise use of the rivers'
land and water resources, and improve resource con-
servation measures. Planners work with local citizen
advisory boards developing recommendations for
local governments on resource use.
Regional Support Services cnnrain.s the Map-
ping and Property Research Section, Environmen-
tal Review, Special Projects/GIS, and the
Greenways Commission Coordinator.
The Mapping and Property Research Section
researches property records (deeds, surveys, land
patents) and prepares project boundary maps for all
Department lands. These maps show properties in
the acquisition program, as well as properties
owned by the Department or not yet acquired. The
Project also reviews and updates the maps.
