The Parks and Recreation Master Plan provides the Town of Innisfil with a framework to improve recreational services, programming and infrastructure.
Community input - Land and Lake Plan
We're updating the Parks and Recreation Master Plan (Land Plan) completed in 2016 and finishing the Lake Simcoe Enjoyment Strategy (Lake Plan). Together, these two documents will guide us in providing both land-based and water-oriented recreation services to residents and visitors over the next 20 years. Resident feedback will help us create a shared vision and set goals for:
- New parks within neighbourhoods
- Improvements to current parks
- Better lake access
- Enhancements to activities within our parks
- Recreation services
