This grant, provided by BLM OR-WA, is designed to establish legal public access to the Juniper Dunes Recreation Area. The primary access route, Peterson Road, currently presents a challenge as its initial two miles are privately owned, lacking a public use agreement, which restricts public entry. This funding initiative will empower Franklin County to purchase these critical first two miles of Peterson Road and subsequently improve the road to meet county standards. The successful execution of this project will ensure a vital, legally recognized pathway, allowing the public unhindered access to pursue and fully enjoy the diverse recreational opportunities offered within the Juniper Dunes Area. This grant is for ensuring sustained public access.
