Project Spotlight: WWU’s Sustainable Communities Partnership Works With the Columbia Valley Park and Recreation District to Draft a Comprehensive Park Plan
By: Ada Inman
The Sustainable Communities Partnership at Western Washington University joined forces with the Columbia Valley Park and Recreation District (CVPRD) in the summer of 2020 to draft a Comprehensive Park Plan. Through this project, students conducted community engagement initiatives for the CVPRD including surveys of public demand, focus groups, and stakeholder interviews in order to identify community needs and desires for parks and recreation infrastructure. This Comprehensive Park Plan will serve as a guide for park planning, will show community members the purpose and goals of the CVPRD, and will make the CVPRD eligible for external funding.
