Master Plan for Barber Pool Conservation Area Boise Idaho
- This RFP was uploaded by the owner.
Barber Pool Campaign Committee seeking a proposal for the preparation of a Master Plan to reflect the interests of stakeholders in the Barber Pool Conservation Area (BPCA). The BPCA is a 700-acre riverine landscape that contains the largest, single, open-space, undeveloped habitat area along the lower Boise River through Idaho's capital city. Located where the Boise Foothills Wildlife Management Area meets the Boise River, this unique ecological setting serves as a significant stop for migratory birds along the Pacific Flyway and is home to the state's largest wintering deer herd, which migrates from the Sawtooth Mountains of central Idaho. Since 2002, growing development on the periphery of BPCA (of both developed "people areas" and undeveloped "natural areas") has increased management and maintenance associated with Barber Pool. Significant new housing has been developed, as Boise becomes the #1 fastest-growing community in the United States.
