Healthy: Fall 2022

CAPRA NATIONAL ACCREDITATION RECOGNITION AWARD 2010, 2015 & 2021

Our staff is proud to report that the City of Dublin continues to join the ranks of elite park and recreation agencies and departments across the country by earning its reaccreditation status through the Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA) and the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA). CAPRA accreditation is the only national accreditation for park and recreation agencies, and is a measure of best practices used to achieve overall quality of service to the community. This mark of distinction indicates that the City has met rigorous standards related to the management, planning and administration of public lands, facilities, resources, programs, safety and services.

The City of Dublin Parks and Recreation Department is one of 192 agencies in the country and one of ten agencies in Ohio to receive national accreditation. We achieved reaccreditation in 2021 and distinguished ourselves even further by meeting all 154 standards. To become accredited, agencies must demonstrate their ability to meet all 36 Fundamental Standards and 95% of the non-fundamental standards. We are pleased to exceed the standards for the benefit of our residents and guests.

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN The Department of Parks and Recreation creates parks, programs, activities and facilities that provide fun and life- enriching opportunities for our diverse community. Dublin values, promotes and is committed to continued investment in a healthy and balanced community lifestyle. The current Dublin Parks and Recreation Master Plan was developed by our community and adopted by Dublin City Council in 2010. The City of Dublin is developing its second Parks & Recreation Master Plan and is engaging the community’s help in shaping what the next five to 10 years will look like for parks and recreation in Dublin. The City of Dublin has hired PROS Consulting, Inc. to help develop the 2022 master plan. To learn more, visit DublinOhioUSA.gov/parks-and-recreation- master-plan/ .
