The Parks and Recreation Strategic Plan
is Now Available to View in Advance of
May 26 City Council Meeting
The final designed draft of the Parks and Recreation Strategic Plan is now available for public viewing ahead of City Council consideration for adoption.
Since the March 17, 2026 Parks and Recreation Commission (PRC) meeting, when the PRC recommended that the City Council adopt the Plan, staff have continued refining the document to incorporate additional feedback from the PRC and community members. The Plan has also advanced to its final designed format, including graphics, visual enhancements, and improved readability.
