WOODSTOCK, GA -- Cherokee County is working on a new Comprehensive Recreation, Parks, Green Space and Trails Master Plan, and the government wants your feedback on what should be its priorities.

The goal of the project is to "develop a community-supported plan that directly relates to the mission of the county and provides guidance to better prioritize, fund, develop and manage parks, recreation facilities, green spaces, trails and recreation programs," the Cherokee Recreation and Parks Agency said.

Public involvement is critical to the planning process, as feedback from the community will make sure the plan addresses the future recreation needs for Cherokee County.

A variety of strategies will be used to solicit input and feedback. Along with utilizing a steering committee and focus groups, the general public will be engaged through public meetings and an online survey. The online survey is now open, and can be access by clicking here.

CRPA Director Bryan Reynolds said the first public input meeting, held March 2, had more than 75 participants and generated lots of "great feedback."

Another public input meeting is planned for the month of May, and details on that meeting are forthcoming.

“In the meantime, we encourage everyone to take the survey to make a difference today," he added.
