Recreation master plan advances: Nike base and Veterans Park considered for community and senior facilities
Summary
Advisory members updated the committee on a recreation master plan that evaluates reusing Nike base and Veterans Park for senior and community services, trail connections to the Shoreline Trail, and a proposed paddlecraft launch; deliverables should help future grant requests.
The committee heard that the recreation master-plan team has produced drawings and is evaluating two primary sites — the Nike base and Veterans Park — for possible community and senior center development and trail integration. S3 summarized that planners are analyzing locations, programming needs, and how existing infrastructure could support repurposing.
Members also discussed trail gaps and a proposed paddlecraft launch at East River Road. S3 said the proposal will be reviewed by the Greenway Commission as part of the state process and that the final plan will help prioritize funding and project sequencing for parks, trails and potential new recreational facilities.
