County accepting applications for site of park for off-highway vehicles

El Paso County officials are accepting applications for a new committee to find a site for an off-highway-vehicle park.

This month, the county dropped a plan for a motorcycle park at Corral Bluffs because of opposition.

The seven-member OHV Park Project Citizen Committee will evaluate potential sites and make a recommendation to county commissioners.

Officials are looking for a wide range of interests to be represented.

Anyone interested in serving should send an e-mail, along with some biographical information, to timwolken@elpasoco.com.
