The Kenmore City Council adopted the City’s first Parks and Recreation Master Plan in April 2003. The plan includes a series of recommendations regarding actions the City should take to increase the availability of park and recreation facilities and services to Kenmore residents. The plan prioritizes improvements to existing City parks while also recommending that the City take advantage of some key property acquisitions when properties become available and when grant funding can be leveraged to stretch limited City resources. The plan recommends that the City not become a direct provider of recreation services, but should partner with existing providers so that the availability of these services to Kenmore residents can be increased.
