Park History
The Alper’s Farm Subdivision was developed by D. R. Horton – Continental Homes. The park was dedicated by Plat to Jefferson County and subsequently by Commissioner’s Deed to Foothills Park & Recreation District in April of 2004 to comply with the May 5, 1972 Senate Bill No. 35 “Land Use Act Pertaining to Subdivision in Colorado.” During 2006, a master plan was developed with input from the Alper’s Farm Homeowners Association. With a $50,000 donation from the developer and matching funds from the District, a first phase of development was constructed to include a playground, picnic shelter and park signage.
In 2021, this site was improved with voter-approved funds from the 2017 mill levy.
