Water Protection
Developed in 2015, The Trust partnered with Denton County and the Upper Trinity Regional Water District to develop the Denton County Greenbelt Plan. The Greenbelt Plan is a county-wide plan to guide the preservation of greenbelts and the adjacent natural areas within the watersheds of our local reservoirs. These greenbelt corridors need special attention and preservation to protect the quality of water and to ensure other benefits for future generations. The Plan identifies strategies that can be implemented by landowners, municipalities, and developers.
To encourage the implementation of the Greenbelt Plan, the Trust established a Grant Program to provide funding for projects that help accomplish the goals of the Greenbelt Plan. For more information on the Greenbelt Plan and the Grant Program, click on the links below.
