About the Parks and Recreation Master Plan

The City of Quinte West is creating a Parks and Recreation Master Plan to help shape the future of parks, open spaces and recreation facilities.

A Parks and Recreation Master Plan is a framework that outlines the long-term vision, goals and priorities for the development, operation and maintenance of parks, open spaces, recreation facilities and community services.

The plan is created to meet the needs of those who live, work and play in Quinte West and is guided by the community’s priorities.

Review the draft plan and its key recommendations in the 'documents' tab on this page. To request an alternate format of the plan or recommendations, please email samantha.reid@quintewest.ca or call 613-392-2841.
