The Town will hold a Public meeting with contractor Southwest River Engineering June 30th at 5:30 pm at the Community Center - West Conference Room. This meeting will discuss the new boat ramp, feedback, and design of the site for all phases of the River Park design.
The last Public Meeting for the 30% Design review for the River Park was held December 11th. RFP awardee for phase one of the project, Southwest River Engineering owner Chris Pitcher reviewed the conceptual design plan for all phases of the park and the design-build plans for phase one of the project. The public engaged with questions and comments to help shape the future of the Park. Details of the project were reviewed, questions were discussed, attendees had an opportunity to post their comments on maps for the project.
Town Staff is working with the Southern Ute Tribal Council on the naming of the new River Park, showing the collaboration between their community and the Town of Pagosa Springs. On October 21st, Town Council gave feedback to staff on the naming of the River Park to be Maiku River Park (meaning "Welcome" in Southern Ute), pending review and feedback by the Southern Ute Tribal Council. This name was suggested through mypagosa.org during the naming feedback process.
In May 2025 the Town of Pagosa Springs purchased 1040 E. US Hwy 160, formerly known as Bob’s LP. This strategic acquisition has provided an opportunity to expand public river access, lengthen our Riverwalk Trail corridor, provide additional wetland and park space, and establish a unique and defining recreation location for visitors and locals to see and use as they enter town.
