THE DUBLIN PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN

Your vision for our Dublin Parks and Recreation is here!

The Parks and Recreation Master Plan serves as a framework for the future. The City will use this to guide the community’s wants and current needs, from recreation programming to park development. The City of Dublin values its rich history, including the traditions of indigenous peoples such as the Hopewell culture, which called the area home, as well as the settlers who followed. Since then, Dublin has grown into a thriving community, home to over 50,000 residents and many major employers.

This master plan builds on this proud history as it looks to the community’s future parks and recreation needs.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU — THE DCRC REFRESH MASTER PLAN

We all need a little refresh to renew ourselves now and then. The DCRC is getting one too!

Through this process, the City will be soliciting feedback from the community. Those interested in sharing their thoughts or want to hear more about the master plan process can visit a scheduled community engagement meeting or share a community comment on our TellDublin platform.
