PROS Plan: Parks Recreation & Open Space Plan




PLANNING THE FUTURE OF MCCALL’S PARKS, RECREATION, AND OPEN SPACe

The City of McCall Parks and Recreation Department is embarking on a community-driven effort to develop the Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan. Much has been accomplished and significant changes have come to McCall since the last Master Plan in 2005.

The planning process will evaluate existing resources, participation trends, program needs, park access, community priorities, and city-wide policies to detail an implementable 10-year vision for the Department. While the Plan will primarily focus on opportunities within the City limits and the Impact Area, considerations may be given to parks and open space beyond those boundaries that provide a public benefit and can be responsibly managed.

PLANNING PROCESS 

The process for the Plan is one that fully involves the community. It will build upon and integrate former planning efforts. Between April 2022 and May 2023, the public will be invited to provide input and share feedback on the Plan’s progress. Centered around three public engagement series, the public will be invited to participate in local events, online surveys, and in-person and virtual public meetings. The Parks & Recreation Advisory Committee (PRAC) will act as the project steering committee as a working group of individuals who are vested in McCall’s future and represent a variety of perspectives and interests. The PRAC will provide a recommendation to the City Council for adoption. 

Opportunities to participate are anticipated for:  




Community Needs & Choices: June – July 2022 

  • Confirm vision and goals 

  • Public kickoff

  • Present opportunities and challenges  

  • Gather input of community needs 


Recommendations: November-December 2022
