Recreational Planning & Design
The perception of a community by current and future residents is
linked to where and how people spend their leisure time in that
community. Therefore, progressive communities plan and design for
the integration of sustainable parks, recreation and open space
elements with traditional components of community design. Our
philosophy of recreation planning and design embraces the needs and
desires of current and future residents focusing on opportunities
for recreation, connectivity and interaction with both natural and
man-made environments for leisure activity.
