Kerbel Conservation Easement
Agricultural properties such as this serve four visual purposes. They serve as unencumbered foregrounds to vistas beyond, represent rural landscapes, provide a sense of a less restrictive traveling corridor and provide contrast and separation between developments of adjacent towns and cities.
This property is located east of Wellington and north of Ft. Collins. The land under this conservation easement is not open to the public.

When only the development rights of a property are purchased, as in the case of a conservation easement, any future development of that land is limited. The landowner continues to manage the property, and the land remains on the tax rolls. Land with a conservation easement is not generally open to the public because it is still in private ownership.
*The conservation easement on this property is monitored by Larimer County Open Lands.
