Citizen Input Wanted on ‘South Pagosa Park’ Proposals

The Town of Pagosa Springs is seeking public input on two proposed developments and improvements within South Pagosa Park, located at 550 S. 8th St.

The Town is considering an expansion to the existing Seeds of Learning Early Care and Education Center, along with a proposed new roofed structure over an enlarged ice-skating rink and future multi-use pavilion.

Both of these projects are located in South Pagosa Park, which the Pagosa Springs Town Council is seeking your input on. To view the conceptual plans for these expansions, please visit MyPagosa.org.

Seeds of Learning is in the early planning stages for expansion that will accommodate future child care and preschool needs. Seeds of Learning has operated at capac- ity with 45 students, with another 60 children on a wait list. It serves families from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds and remains a crucial source of care for the community’s workforce, offering a sliding tuition scale for many of its families. Its intended expansion will allow it to enroll an additional 43-53 preschool students by 2027.

The Pagosa Springs Multi-Purpose Pavilion board is requesting support for a roofed structure that will enclose the existing ice-skating rink in its current location. The roofed structure would be phased to expand as additional funding becomes available. The structure would serve several purposes, including lengthening the skating season and allowing for additional revenue and an in-town winter outdoor recreation opportunity.

If you have questions, please contact planning@pagosasprings.co.gov or call (970) 264-4151, ext. 221.
