Attend a Game Plan open house this week!
|
With your help, Denver Parks & Recreation is working on a new
Game Plan, a 20-year vision for parks and recreation in the city, as part of Denveright. Early community feedback and an existing conditions report have helped to identify the system’s strengths, weaknesses and key challenges.
What does a modern approach to parks and recreation look like for Denver? (Check out Saturday's
Denver Post story for more.)
Attend one of the open houses to help us:
- be a more resilient and environmentally sustainable;
- provide programs, places and facilities that promote healthy lifestyles for all residents and ensure equity and access to services;
- model best practices in fiscal and resource management to ensure the long-term economic and operational health of the system;
- reflect Denver’s unique cultural identity.

Blueprint Denver wants to know: How should we address growth?
|
How will Denver address growth as our population continues to increase? Come be part of a Blueprint Denver workshop to help identify the best path forward for managing Denver’s growth.
At our April 25 scenario planning workshop, you can join a “Blueprint growth strategy game” that plays out the implications of different patterns of growth. What are the tradeoffs for different population, employment and housing increases, and what are the tradeoffs associated with different growth strategies?
By creating priority transit corridors, exploring current and future growth patterns downtown and in mixed-use centers, and envisioning new mixed-use centers, you will have an opportunity to help shape how future growth may impact equity and affordability, mobility, and access to recreation and other daily needs.
Blueprint Denver workshop April 25, 2017 5:30 – 8 p.m. West Leadership Academy at Denver West High School 951 Elati St, Denver, CO 80204

Transit plan hosts neighborhood drop-in workshops
|
The workshops will offer interactive ways to share how your experiences line up with transit needs identified in the
State of the System Report, and weigh in on your priorities for future transit investment.
Attendees will also have the chance to provide input about future transit investment priorities through activities including informational boards for browsing, one-on-one access to team members, trade-off games, and other opportunities for feedback.
