Our Mission:

Looking Forward...
The following Assessment and Implementation Plan process took place between April and September 2008. This plan provides City leadership and Parks and Recreation staff with a direction and plan of action to address priority issues to improve the Parks and Recreation system and to meet community needs in the next five to ten years.
The process consisted of a series of public input opportunities, staff and City Council input, a park inventory and analysis, and an assessment of recreation programs as well as park maintenance operations. Below is a summary of key findings, followed by the Plan recommendations.
