Buncombe County invites everyone to help envision the future of the County’s parks, greenways, and open spaces through a public meeting on Thursday, October 3, from 6-8 p.m. at Weaverville Town Hall. This community-driven event is a key step in developing the county’s first-ever Parks & Recreation Master Plan and Open Space Plan, as well as updating the Greenways and Trails Master Plan.
Many of you answered the call and told us about the needs you have identified for our parks, greenways, and open spaces through our survey and community meetings. Now we are ready to hear your ideas to address these needs and make progress on our goals.
You can help shape Buncombe County Parks & Recreation’s future by participating in community engagement opportunities for our Systemwide Parks & Recreation Master Plan. The Master Plan will help identify capital improvements, programming, services, and potential acquisition and other recommendations to stay relevant to the community’s needs and priorities.
