Town Council Work Session 
December 9, 2024 
Vienna Community Center
Time: 6-8 p.m. 

Join us for a Town Council Work Session to learn about progress and findings from developing the future Vienna Parks & Recreation Master Plan: Our Plan to Play. This session compiles and presents information from community surveys, engagement, and stakeholder sessions along with benchmarking against other agencies and best practices from the Parks & Recreation industry. It will form a foundation for final recommendations in Spring 2025. Let's build the future together!

The Town of Vienna Department Parks and Recreation is currently developing a Parks and Recreation Master Plan, Our Plan to Play, to create a shared vision for a safe, accessible, equitable, healthy, sustainable, and community-centered parks and recreation experience in Vienna. 

Our Plan to Play will emphasize the strengths of our community, identify missing needs, and define a multi-year vision to guide the maintenance, operation, and future opportunities for the Town's parks, trails, and recreational facilities and programming.  

Anticipated Timeline

The development of this plan is anticipated to take approximately 12 to 16 months.

It serves as a roadmap for decision-making, resource allocation, and future development efforts to ensure that the community's recreational needs are met and that the parks system is sustainable and accessible for all residents.

With your support, Our Plan to Play will achieve our mission of creating community through people, parks, and programs.
