A draft of the Smithers Parks and Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) has been completed!

The Master Plan will guide how the Town provides and invests in parks and recreation services (facilities, programs, and events) over the next 10 years. It was developed to ensure that future decision-making is informed and best aligned with community needs. More specifically, the Master Plan process enabled the Town to:

  • Analyze the current state of parks and recreation.
  • Identify trends (emerging interests, changes in activity preferences, etc.).
  • Establish focus areas for capital facility investment and programming.
  • Develop concept plans for Heritage and Central Park.
  • Identify opportunities to optimize service delivery.

The feedback period on the draft Master Plan is now closed

Thanks to those who provided feedback on the draft Master Plan either at the June 11th Open House or via the online feedback form that was open from June 11th to 30th.

Please stay tuned to Town of Smithers communications (website or Facebook) for project updates from this point forward. This engagement site will be closing soon.
