Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update

The City is currently embarking on a year-long master planning process to update and replace its Parks and Recreation Master Plan.  This process, which is a joint effort between City Staff, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (serving as Steering Committee), and the consultant firm GreenPlay, will also include an update to the City's Parks System Development Charge (SDC) Methodology.

The Parks and Recreation Master Plan will examine existing facilities and services to assess the current and ideal future level of services for the community based on public input. The plan will prioritize needs and desires for upgrading and improving parks, recreational facilities, athletic fields, amenities, programs, and services. It will also explore partnerships with other organizations and funding sources.

A critical element of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan is public engagement and input. So far, the project team has conducted focus groups, stakeholder interviews, and a public forum (on July 29th). However, there will be other opportunities for you to share your thoughts! Next steps will include a public opinion survey, which will be conducted later this summer. Please check back here for a link to the survey and other project updates. We look forward to hearing your thoughts, opinions, comments, concerns, and ideas.
