History
Historically, the Belleview Ridge Greenbelt was a section of the Bergen Ditch Lateral that originated at the Bergen Reservoirs located on the west side of C-470, approximately ½ mile southwest of the greenbelt. The lateral terminated at Long Lake in what is now the Country West Greenbelt. Long Lake was eventually reduced in size as homes were developed and the lateral was eventually abandoned. In February, 2003, Jefferson County entered into an agreement with Foothills Park & Recreation District whereby Foothills would “operate and maintain” the greenbelt but Jefferson County would retain ownership.

Directions
