Park & Recreation Master Plan
The City has contracted with Porchlight Insights and DRAW architecture to lead a resident engagement process focused on updating the City's Strategic Plan. The last Strategic Plan was adopted in 2015. The process will synthesize other long range planning efforts completed by the City. The plan will include the adoption of Mission and Vision statements for the community that are consistent with the values and goals adopted by the City Council. The strategic plan framework will result in measurable goals and objectives that the City can act upon in the future.
The City has convened an ad hoc committee consisting of representatives from standing committees, local schools, the business community as well as the Mayor and a member of the City Council. The Committee meets monthly through the completion of the plan.
Park & Recreation Master Plan
The process will also include creating a Parks and Recreation Master Plan. This plan will create a roadmap to ensure quality facilities and amenities throughout the community for the future. The City is also working with Porchlight and DRAW Architecture to develop a system-wide approach to evaluate parks, recreation, open space, trails, facilities, and amenities to develop goals and achievable strategies. This plan will be used as a resource for future development and redevelopment of the City’s parks and recreational facilities. The city has adopted a bike and pedestrian infrastructure plan as well as master plans for our two largest parks (R Park and Nall Park). The Parks and Recreation Master Plan will reflect these studies as well as future opportunities for new spaces.
