The Town of Huntsville is developing a new Parks and Trails Master Plan to guide the future investment in the community\u2019s green spaces over the next 10 to 15 years. <\/p>\n\n\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n

From November 12 to December 10, 2025, the Town is seeking input through\u00a0a public survey<\/a>\u00a0to gather feedback on the community\u2019s needs, values, and goals to ensure our parks and trails reflect the shared vision for the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plan will help ensure that Huntsville\u2019s network of parks, trails, and open spaces continues to meet the needs of a growing population \u2014 including permanent residents, seasonal residents, and visitors \u2014 while supporting the Town\u2019s mission of delivering quality services through responsible decision-making. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To further engage the community and increase awareness, the Town of Huntsville will be facilitating an in-person and a virtual open house. These events will provide an opportunity for open dialogue and more robust feedback from the community.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe know Huntsville residents spend a lot of time outdoors, and our love for green space is deeply engrained in our collective identity as a community,\u201d shares Tina Scott-Burns, Manager of Parks and Cemeteries for the Town of Huntsville<\/strong>. \u201cIt is important our plan reflects all the different ways people spend time in our parks and on our trails, and the best way we can ensure each voice is heard is through our public engagement. We encourage everyone to take our survey and attend our open houses so that we can make a plan that is reflective of all of Huntsville for many years to come.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
