ONTARIO COUNTY TO HOST OPEN HOUSE IN SUPPORT OF COUNTY-WIDE PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN AT FLCC-GENEVA CAMPUS
July 14, 2023, Canandaigua, NY: On Thursday, July 27, 2023, from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm, Ontario County invites the community to attend an open house in support of their Parks and Recreation Master Plan which is currently in development. The open house will be held at Finger Lakes Community College, 63 Pulteney Street, Geneva.
All are welcome to attend, and attendees will have an opportunity to learn about the planning process and provide feedback on County recreational facilities and offerings. This feedback will inform the County’s Parks and Recreation Master Plan. Public input is essential to the planning process and necessary to ensure the forthcoming Master Plan successfully responds to local needs.
The Ontario County Parks System currently includes seven (7) recreational spaces which the County owns and maintains. The County works to make recreational and educational opportunities available to all members of the public. The County’s forthcoming Parks and Recreation Master Plan will act as a guide for decision-making on park system development and management over the next 10 to 20 years.
In addition to attending the July 27th open house, the community can also provide input via public survey. Questions on the survey cover issues such as barriers to participation, facility needs, user satisfaction, and public outreach. The Ontario County Parks and Recreation Master Plan survey can be accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/OntarioCoParks.
