BODY
REPORT NARRATIVE:
The Bikeways, Trails, Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update (Master Plan) process began in the spring of 2015. The Master Plan will weave together three separate plans to create a current, comprehensive, and community-driven tool for the City to use to prioritize improvements and investments. The Master Plan will also help support goals and programs to improve our city’s health, environment, connectivity, and recreation options.
The purpose of this workshop will be to:
1. Update the Council on community outreach, stakeholder group’s work, and Parks and Recreation Commission input;
2. Share key themes received though this outreach;
3. Discuss potential projects, policies, and draft map for Bikeways and Trails;
4. Discuss potential projects and policies relating to Parks and Recreation Facilities;
5. Begin high level discussion on overall priorities;
6. Provide an outline for next steps in completing the plan update; and
7. Provide any additional direction to staff the Council deems necessary.
