The citizen‐driven plan establishes a clear direction to guide city staff, advisory committees, and elected officials in their efforts to enhance the community’s parks system, open space, community forest, trails, recreation facilities, programs and services. The purpose of this plan is to continue to evaluate and develop a well‐planned systemic approach to managing community parks and recreation needs. The Master Plan ensures that these services are consistent, compatible, and complimentary to all current and planned Parks and Recreation services.
