Opportunities to be involved along the way
As planning for specific projects proceeds, various levels of consultation will occur with invested partners, community organizations and residents. For certain projects, community input will be gathered to contribute to project design, and be considered in balance with project budgets and the approved Open Space and Recreation Facility Strategy direction.
