Open Space Open space in Fuquay-Varina may be used for passive or active purposes. More passive areas are represented by undisturbed or undeveloped land protected from future subdivision or development by federal, state, county, or town entities, or by public, private, or non-profit organizations. The areas may be preserved because of their outstanding natural beauty, environmental sensitivity, stormwater management benefits, viewsheds, or the protection of wildlife management areas. Examples of passive open spaces in the Town may include, but are not limited to, preservation or conservation easement areas, natural parks or preserves, cemeteries, or land dedicated as passive open space within residential neighborhoods, non- residential centers, or mixed-use activity centers. More active open space in the Town is used for parks, playgrounds, athletic fields, open air sports complexes, greenways, or trails. Facilities may be operated by the local government, non-profit organizations, or private sports clubs.
