CADDO PARISH, La. (KTAL/KMSS) – Caddo Parish Parks and Recreation in partnership with Shreveport Parks and Recreation (SPAR) is seeking public input as they develop a comprehensible parks and recreation master plan.
Leaders in both departments say the master plan is intended to provide a vision and framework for ensuring the quality of life services, improved facilities, and park amenities for the next 15 years.
System-wide evaluations of parks and open space recreational facilities and amenities will be used to help the organizations develop goals, policies, and guidelines for more accessible and efficient use of park space.
The first community input meeting was held in the Vivian Town Hall Chambers Tuesday evening.
A post on the Caddo Parish Facebook page touted a “great turnout” for the meeting in Vivian.
The master plan is scheduled to be completed by the end of this calendar year. All meetings are free and open to the public.
