Park Improvements
Imagine Your Parks 3 - Phases of Design & Construction
Imagine Your Parks 3 looks ahead to the next 10 years of parks, greenways, programs, and operations, with an overarching focus on equity. By looking at barriers to access, mapping areas of need, listening to community feedback, and analyzing future trends, IYP3 identifies strategies to improve equitable access to BREC’s exceptional parks. IYP3 also includes a 3-year strategic plan that highlights key short-term priorities. Capital improvement projects include engagement, planning, design, permitting, and construction for parks, recreation facilities, greenways, and system-wide capital needs.
There will be a transition period during which several IYP2 capital improvement projects are under construction, while planning for IYP3 proceeds.
