Welcome to Palisades!
Purpose:
Our primary goal is stewardship of the entire Rimrock/Palisades/Indian Canyon area, including all public lands within the approximate boundaries of Sunset Hwy on the South, Riverside State Park on the North and East, and Airway Heights on the West.
This will include trail planning and maintenance, park advocacy with regard to City Parks issues, involvement with the various agencies assisting in fire management, periodic cleanup activities, and a helpful, watchdog approach to all park users -- i.e. friendly toward non-trashers, non-poachers, non-dealers.
In addition, to assist other user groups in working toward accomplishment of their goals within other areas to enhance muscle-powered use, whether by help with marketing/grant writing/funding or physical help with trail work and building projects.
Finally, to spread the teachings of the "Leave No Trace" Outdoor Ethics program, both within our own area and by reaching out to other user groups to help work toward having clean, sustainable public lands everywhere.
We hope you'll join us. |

Prowling Car in Palisades Causes Concern
Over the last couple of weeks neighbors along Rimrock Dr, Basalt Dr and Bonnie Dr have consistently seen a metallic pink Ford Contour GL with license plate #682 RFP driven by a male about 30 years of age. The car can be spotted daily along Bonnie Dr, turning into driveways, sometimes speeding down the road. Usually around mid morning. It will also turn up on Rimrock Dr and Basalt, pulling into residence driveways and stopping. If confronted, he displays a remote attitude and answers any questions in short bursts.
The Sheriff has been notified and will respond if a threatening situation occurs, but cannot do anything until a law has been broken. The number to call is 477-2240. This car has been seen meeting up with a light brown colored pickup. Also spotted parked in a neighborhood driveway along Basalt is a white SUV driven by a woman.
Additional information is that there is also a late model gold colored Honda with this car, license # 000, it had dark windows.
A police officer responded to our Neighborhood News with this piece of advise:
Please let your neighbors know that they would be justified in calling 911 when this fellow shows up. "There is a suspicious car in my neighbor's drive, and he does not belong there-I need an officer to contact him."
Susan Hardy has spoken with the sheriff and they have offered to have a deputy come out and speak to the neighborhood about safety measures than we might take. Susan will try to set up a time with the deputy and then we will send out a Neighborhood News email to let everyone know.
