The Fredericksburg Parks, Recreation & Events Department is hosting an Open House next week to hear public input on how best to plan future park and trail improvements.
Lose Design of Nashville, Tenn., has been hired by the City to perform a Parks and Recreation Strategic Plan. Public input sessions will be held Aug. 12 between 5-8 p.m. and Aug. 13 between 11 a.m.-1 p.m. in the Dorothy Hart Community Center auditorium at 408 Canal St. in Fredericksburg.
The drop-in open house will allow participants a chance to express what they believe are the important park amenities for the community. Consultants and staff will be on site to ask questions and receive comments.
The public input is the important first step in a planned months-long process to help the City determine the future of our parks. This plan will serve as a guide for the City’s development, expansion and improvement of parks and recreation facilities for many years into the future.
For more information, please feel free to contact Jane Shelhorse, director of Parks, Recreation and Events Department, at 540-372-1086 or jcshelhorse@fredericksburgva.gov.
