Dear Citizens of Augusta,

On May 4, 2016 the Augusta Commission received an updated report from our consultants regarding our Master Plan. The presentation, http://planaugustaparks.com/pdf/augusta-master-plan-draft-report-presentation.pdf, highlighted the progress made to date on the plan and included recommendations derived from surveys, park inspections, stake holder meetings, staff and other input.  In the ninety-four slide PowerPoint you can see the vision for community recreation in Augusta, review the results of the surveys, look at user preference charts, see how respondents wish to spend the funding and see the specific recommendations made by the consulting team. The last few slides will show you the proposed improvements and our path forward. 

Between now and June 7' 2016 we would like to receive your feedback on the Master Plan. Please take a few minutes to review the Master Plan and then share your thoughts and comments on the presented information.  Once you have done this, please let a friend now about the comment period so we can get good feedback during this open period.

Thanks for your help and support of the Recreation and Parks Department. 

H. Glenn Parker, Director
