VISION ACTION TEAM: Chaffee County is a friendly, supportive community where participation is encouraged and shared cultural elements connect us.
The team will create community solutions, programs and plans so that in 2030 and beyond, Chaffee County will have a friendly, supportive community where participation is encouraged and shared cultural elements connect us.
More than 1,200 Chaffee County citizens surveyed indicated that a special sense of community — described as friendly, connected, safe, welcoming and supportive with thriving local businesses — is critical to quality of life and the reason many people live here. This team will work on topics that could include volunteerism, education, non-profit entities, crime rates, health outcomes, happiness, civic infrastructure, arts, culture and heritage, as well as environmental aspects such as dark skis and noise, to find ways to keep the special community vibe as the population grows a projected 31% by 2030.
