Natural Resource Management
Recreational Facilities Plan
The Natural Resource Management Department is creating a new park plan and want to hear from the public. Citizen ideas and feedback will help us design parks that reflect the needs and values of our community. Share your thoughts and let us know what new features, activities, or experiences you would like to see incorporated into our county park system. No idea is too big or too small!
The Original Park Plan was adopted by the County Board in 2008 with updates in 2011 and 2013.
We want your input! Submit your comments
