The Land Preservation, Parks and Recreation Plan is a comprehensive document that outlines a strategic vision for Washington County’s parks and open space system. It identifies current strengths within the existing system and pinpoints areas where enhancements can be made. Community input is considered essential for creating a plan that truly reflects the needs and desires of residents regarding recreation facilities and services. This input will be instrumental in ensuring that funding is allocated effectively and efficiently to support these future developments.
By completing the survey, residents will contribute to a better understanding of community priorities and help identify specific improvements that can enhance the parks and recreational facilities. The survey comprises two sections: a questionnaire and an interactive map. The questionnaire will gather general feedback, while the interactive map allows respondents to provide targeted suggestions on existing parks or propose locations for new facilities or amenities. Both components are accessible through a single provided link, which will be open for responses until Friday, July 24, 2026. Those seeking more information are directed to contact Travis Allen in the Washington County Department of Planning and Zoning.
