About The Master Plan

The Ranch's Master Plan: Looking Toward the Future

The Ranch Master Plan is a long-term strategy to guide the future growth of the 315-acre campus. Developed with input from the community, the plan focuses on improving access, adding modern amenities, and supporting long-term sustainability.

More than 10,000 Larimer County residents helped shape the plan through surveys, events, and outreach efforts. The plan is still being finalized and will go to the Board of County Commissioners for review and possible adoption in 2025.

Two Phases. One Purpose.

The Master Plan is currently being delivered in two strategic phases, each serving a distinct role in The Ranch’s future.

Phase I focused on direct community needs like youth spaces and accessibility.

Phase II supports long-term sustainability through revenue-generating upgrades.

Both phases ensure that The Ranch remains a community hub, economic driver, and self-sustaining public asset.

See how each phase plays a unique role in securing The Ranch’s future.
