This week, members of the City Council took a trip out to the High Plains Arboretum to learn more about the ongoing restoration and improvements being made.

So far, the new drip system has greatly improved the efficiency of the irrigation capabilities. This allows the Arboretum to reduce water use by placing water exactly where it is needed. With the new drip system, it will be much easier to get new trees established and keep the older trees healthy.

Additionally, the headhouse, greenhouse, and lath house construction will completely restore the three buildings and also make them ADA accessible. Abatement of lead-based paint and asbestos has been completed, and reconstruction has begun. These buildings were constructed in the 1930's and the restoration will make them practically brand new again so they're ready for the next 90 years. Once completed in the late fall, the greenhouse and lath house will be used for propagating the plants at the arboretum so these tough trees can be more readily available for planting in the community.

The next phase of parking striping pilot program in downtown Cheyenne is expected to begin the first week of September, weather permitting. A set schedule is not available at this time, as work is dependent on weather conditions and will be completed with the contractor's availability.

Work is tentatively expected to begin on Warren Avenue and move west, with striping completed from north to south on each street. This work follows Phase 1 of the pilot program that was completed last year.

What to know:
👉 When you see the red temporary No Parking sign shown below on your block, parking will not be permitted on the dates written while striping work is completed.
🌧️ Rain may delay striping for an additional 1–2 days to allowing proper drying before paint is applied.
⛔ Please watch for No Parking signs and plan accordingly as work moves through downtown.

Striping of parking spaces, in particular parallel spaces, is intended to increase visibility of spaces and maximize the number of available spaces. Survey data following Phase 1 indicated strong support of additional striping downtown and that the project made parallel parking and diagonal parking easier.

For project questions, contact Joseph Nester at 307-310-0925.
