After earning a “stamp of approval” from the community in October 2023, the ‘Our Parks, Our Places’ master plan now advances to formal approval and adoption from various Boards, Commissions and City Council. The plan crafts organizational themes and guiding principles, strategically pinpointing opportunities for growth in operational efficiencies, and elevating the management of infrastructure, assets and programming initiatives. The result is a roadmap for the sustainable and comprehensive management of the City’s Parks, Recreation and Open Space Department.
