The City of 麻豆精选 will be reviewing the proposed Parks Master Plan framework in its upcoming council meeting on Monday, Nov. 1.

The Parks Master Plan is a framework that will form one large and comprehensive park planning document. The phases will begin at an overall city-wide scale, then focus on community parks, then neighbourhood parks.

City council is being asked to approve the first phase of the plan, which will allow city staff to review 麻豆精选鈥檚 existing park system and how it is currently being used by the community. It will also allow city staff to engage and inform the public about the master planning process through online surveys, a self-guided discussion booklet and mounted park signs with a QR code redirecting users to a survey or the city鈥檚 鈥淕et Involved鈥 page.

The Parks Master Plan will also be used alongside the city鈥檚 2040 Transportation Master Plan, which provides an overview of the city鈥檚 transportation network. According to a city staff report, parks host some of 麻豆精选鈥檚 most important walking and bicycling routes.

A summary of the Parks Master Plan鈥檚 first phase will be presented to council in 2022. Deliverables will include a vision statement, guiding principles and metrics, an existing inventory of parks, open spaces and a summary of engagement activities.
