The Open Space Division manages approximately 2,000 acres of open lands that serve a wide variety of values. Each open space property is designated with one or more classifications; Preserve, Protect, Visitor, and Other. These lands provide visual buffers between local municipalities and support many species of wildlife and diverse plant communities.

The City's trail system meanders through some of these open space parcels, such as Davidson Mesa, Tamarisk, Lake Park, and the Leon A. Wurl Wildlife Sanctuary, to name just a few. Another important mission of the Open Space Division is to preserve Louisville's agricultural backdrop by maintaining private farming in more rural areas.
