Parks Master Plan

Lake County's Countywide Parks and Recreation System Master Plan was developed using a three-pronged approach that examined existing parks and recreation facilities, analyzed how recreation services are provided throughout the County, and used a grass roots public involvement program to gather public input. Three key areas, parks, environmental land, and trails, are addressed in the Master Plan. Additional elements of the Master Plan include data and analysis of each key area addressed, a mission statement and objectives that define the vision for recreation in Lake County, specific recommendations to implement the master plan, and an appendix containing additional documentation related to the Master Plan.
