City of Shelton Open Space Marker

open space marker

This marker is used to identify Public Open Space owned by the City of Shelton.  It does not mark the exact location of the property line and may be as much as 100 feet away from the boundary, depending on site conditions.  The Conservation and Pedestrian Easements markers have a similar look but different text.

Land Trust Marker


The Land Trust is a private, non-profit group that owns 364 acres of open space in Shelton, marked with these signs.  People frequently confuse the Land Trust with the City of Shelton.

Wetlands Marker

These rectangular wetlands marker may be found in some newer subdivisions, usually on 4x4 posts. They mark the location of areas regulated by the Shelton Inland Wetlands Commission. These are generally on private property and are not related to open space. 

Open Space Properties

Municipal open space properties are listed below, sorted by the Open Space number assigned to each property.  Brown text indicates a link to more information about that property. To find the Open Space Number, refer to the Open Space Map at the right.  Alternatively, use control+F to search this page for a street name or common name people use for the property.  Note that Land Trust properties (dark green on the map, with an "LT" prefix) are not owned by the City and are listed on the Land Trust website.
