Comprehensive Master Plan Update

This Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Master Plan Update is a ten year vision plan that will provide County staff and elected officials with a road map through 2026. The plan will help guide decision making and actions as the County balances the challenges and opportunities of rapid growth over the next decade. This Plan was carefully crafted by staff, the public, volunteers, and with the assistance of outside experts to ensure that future generations will have adequate parks, greenways and open space.
