ITEM 2 PARKS, RECREATION, AND OPEN SPACE MASTER PLAN UPDATE—The
current Parks and Recreation Master Plan was adopted in 1995 and is now 12 years
old. Since that time, the City has experienced significant growth, which has impacted
recreation services and facilities, as well as the relationship between open space and
developed land. To that end the goal of the updated Master Plan is to develop a
framework that reflects our community's vision and character ensuring that parks and
recreation serves the needs of Santa Clarita residents, while at the same time ensuring
that our open space areas are protected and maintained. It is anticipated that the
Master Plan will be complete by September 2007.
