Fort Dodge, IA
With the initiation of the Envision 2030 Strategic Plan, the City of Fort Dodge recognized the importance of enhancing the quality of life of its citizens and the need to once again become a regional economic center and a destination for families and businesses. The Envision 2030 Plan acknowledges the importance of parks and recreation in achieving these goals. A team, led by Shive-Hattery, Inc, was formed to evaluate existing parks and recreation facilities and programs and prepare a plan for future development, maintenance and management of those important community resources. The recommendations within the Plan were developed through public input, an assessment of existing conditions, and review of demographic projections as well as recreational trends. The Master Plan was designed to guide the maintenance of existing resources, as well as plan for the development of new parks, greenways, athletic activities, cultural activities, and recreational programs within the community for the next 20 years.
