If you could design the city park of the future, what would it look like?  Would it be large and centrally located, or smaller and tucked away in your neighborhood?  Would it have playgrounds, ball fields and a climbing wall, or would it invite more passive outdoor activities?  What about the city’s future recreation programs and the changing needs of our older population?  What classes would be offered and where? 

The Parks & Recreation Department is developing an updated plan for future parks and recreation services to ensure resources are aligned with current and future trends, community values and the city’s changing demographics. The Parks & Recreation Needs Assessment and Comprehensive Action Plan is scheduled for completion in the fall of 2013.
