Summary

Planning staff said city council approved additional funds to restart the parks and open-space master-plan effort with a new consultant; staff emphasized the new team will reuse existing public outreach and analysis rather than begin from scratch.

Planning staff told the commission the City Council approved an additional allocation to support a reboot of the parks and open-space master plan with a new consultant, and that the consultant will reuse prior public outreach and analysis rather than starting over.

Kelsey said the work is funded as part of the city's planning program and that the new consultant will focus on analysis and mapping, not repeating the full public-engagement process conducted last summer. Staff said planning-commission committees will see 1st drafts in a few months and the project will proceed with an eye to retaining useful prior materials rather than duplicating effort.
