Pleasanton, CA -- The City of Pleasanton has begun the process of the development and preparation of a comprehensive Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The Parks and Recreation Master Plan is intended to be a significant planning tool to help the city plan for the changing scope of recreational activities. As such it will summarize themes, trends and community priorities, assess available resources, review existing and anticipated demographic conditions and provide strategies for parks, recreation programs and open space needs.

To facilitate this process the City is soliciting the input of City residents through a random telephone survey. Network Ltd., a consumer research firm, on behalf of the City will begin calling residents on Monday, November 26, 2012 to get a broad sense of the community’s needs and knowledge of the City’s facilities and programs. The City is extremely interested in the community’s opinions for future planning of park and recreational facilities as well as a variety of programs and services over the next 15 years and hopes that residents will assist them by answering the brief survey.
