Participate in the Online Parks Master Plan Survey
The Parks and Recreation Department continues to work on developing the City’s first Parks Master Plan. This planning document will guide future planning, policy, and development of Burlingame’s parks and recreation programs and facilities for many years to come.
A key element of the plan is community engagement. Feedback from the survey will inform the Parks Master Plan, and ensure that the final document reflects community priorities, preferences, and values related to the City’s parks system. While many community engagement opportunities have been completed, another option to provide input is an online survey that is now open.
