Park System Master Plan - Community Input Meeting #3

Community Input Meeting #3 is a follow-up to the December meeting and will discuss community comments, review draft priorities and outline next steps for 2010.

What is a Park System Master Plan? - a strategy to evaluate, manage and improve our parkland through a collaborative public input process. The plan consider the City's parks as a system, not individual parks, and works toward consistency in appearance, maintenance and design in a manner that is flexible as the needs of the community change and evolve.
