A Primary Goal of the restoration plan is to improve the quality of terrestrial habitat on the Hillmoor property which will support a more diverse population of wildlife. The City would like the property to become an exceptionally beautiful, living example as to what a restored, climate resilient eco-system looks like which can be showcased to residents and visitors. The goal includes improving the ecology in each of the five (5) Land Use Zones – the oak Forest area in Zone 3, the Wetland area in Zone 2, the White River area in Zone 1, the shrubland and upland/grassland areas in Zones 4 & 5. Due to their similarity, Zones 4 & 5 can be combined for restoration planning purposes, though their implementation priority level may be different, especially for new plantings, contingent upon if future building development is to occur in Zone 5
