Public Meetings on
El Paso Parks and Recreation
Master Plan Update
Meetings to be held at Museum of Art
El Paso, Texas - The City of El
Paso will host two public meetings to present
the recommendations for the ongoing Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update.
The
first meeting will be at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 7th with the second meeting
at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, June 9th. Both
meetings will be at the El Paso Museum of Art, One Arts Festival Plaza. (1st Floor
in Contemporary Exhibit Space). (Map) Free
parking is available at the City Hall parking lot after 6:00 p.m. for the first meeting
or Saturday morning. Parking is also available either day for $5 across the street
from the Museum under the Convention Center.
The
city is updating the master plan for the parks and recreation system. Once
the update is completed it will help the City set priorities for parks and recreation
facilities for the next 5 to 10 years. As the City strives to improve the
quality
of life in El Paso, plans of this nature are critical.
This
process is being coordinated by the El Paso Parks and Recreation Department
and a team of professional consultants. A primary goal of the planning process
is to find out what park and recreation needs are desired by citizens of El Paso.
In the previous months a telephone survey was conducted, and several stakeholder/interest
groups were interviewed. All the opinions and desires were cumulated,
and recommendations of the master plan update that were derived from the
surveys are now available for public review.
Residents
of El Paso will be able to review and comment on these recommendations
at the two public meetings. Residents are encouraged to attend the public
meetings as the information derived will be invaluable to the master planning process.
