History
Foothills acquired this greenbelt in 1982 as part of the Country West Subdivision Senate Bill 35 park land dedication. The detention pond was originally much larger when it was part of the Bergen Ditch and Reservoir Company system. The pond size was reduced when it was rebuilt to accept storm runoff from the Country West Subdivision.
