The Park and Recreation Board will hold a public hearing on a new Five-year Park and Outdoor Recreation Plan, which would replace the 1999 Plan. The new Plan will guide the development and improvement of the City’s outdoor recreation facilities over the next five years, in order to meet the recreational needs and demands of the city’s residents. Park and Recreation Board will draw on Evansville's 2005 Smart Growth Plan, as far as the Smart Growth Plan applies to parks and outdoor recreation. Park and Recreation Board also wishes to learn what residents think now of the current park facilities and programs and to determine their desires for the future. The purpose of the public hearing is for the PRB to receive citizen input on these questions:

What are the strengths & weaknesses of Evansville’s park facilities and current park programs?
What changes would you like to see in these facilities and programs over the next five years?
All interested persons are invited to attend.
