Planning for the Future - Parks and Recreation Master Plan

Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update


The City of Meridian is currently working on an update to its Meridian Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

The Master Plan is a detailed and comprehensive document which helps guide the direction, growth and delivery of the department’s services over several years. It encompasses parks, pathways, recreational activities, community events, and the arts and cultural opportunities offered to Meridian’s residents and visitors.

In 2015, the Meridian Parks and Recreation Department developed its first comprehensive Master Plan. (You can find a link to it below.) This plan has served as an integral part of our ongoing efforts to meet the needs of current and future residents and position Meridian to build on our city’s unique parks and recreation assets and identify new opportunities. In the six years since the original Parks and Recreation Master Plan was created, Meridian has experienced unprecedented population growth, necessitating a Master Plan Update.

Since mid-November of 2021, we’ve been working closely with parks and recreation planning experts, as well as city council members, parks commissioners, and members of the public in a planning process that is engaging stakeholders and garnering public input and will result in an updated Parks and Recreation Master Plan for Meridian. Together we’ve been strategically examining our community’s vision; existing community services, facilities, and resources; and assessing future needs and wishes concerning our parks and recreation system. In-person and virtual focus group meetings, a public forum, and an online survey are all helping us learn more about how we can best prioritize and fulfill the future needs and expectations of our community.

Findings, reports and information will be posted here as they become available.
