Parks & Recreation Master Plan

The City of Rome (COR) is seeking proposals from qualified consulting firms to provide services to develop a Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The intent of the project is to create a written plan for ensuring just and fair quantity, proximity and connections to quality parks, open space, trails, and programs throughout the City while looking to the future needs of a changing community. The COR is seeking a system-wide approach in order to develop goals, policies and guidelines and prioritize strategies based on current and future needs and funding scenarios. The COR is looking to utilize the National Recreation and Parks Associations (NRPA) Park Metrics Survey & Report System as part of this master plan process to be able to compare to similarly sized communities and establish benchmarking where possible.
