Parks Master Plan in Progress
- Parks Master Plan 2018 (Final)
- Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
The new Parks Master Plan was presented and approved by the Board of Supervisors on May 22, 2018. The plan will guide the development of County parks, facilities, programs and amenities into the future and provide innovative and creative ideas to meet the anticipated needs of County residents. Our goal is to continue park improvements that maximize use of open space and engage the community in creative forms of exercise in the out-of-doors for added health benefits, while upgrading our parks ADA and safety standards to meet the needs of a diverse and growing community.
