Parks and Recreation Master Plan
The Parks and Recreation Master Plan will guide decision-makers, stakeholders, and the general public in understanding the needs and priorities related to parks and recreation in Strathroy-Caradoc. This includes items such as parkland, community facilities, programs and activities, operations and maintenance, policy development, and financial strategies.
Through research and public input, the Master Plan will examine service levels in all communities across the Municipality and establish priorities for the next 25 years. Recommendations will be developed to respond to community needs, population changes, participation trends, gaps in service, and operational requirements.
Strathroy-Caradoc is committed to ensuring that residents of all ages have access to community amenities and activities that are accessible and support active lifestyles and wellbeing. The Master Plan will assist the Municipality and stakeholders in making strategic decisions to ensure a healthy community, improve quality of life, and encourage a strong economy and sustainable environment.

CLOSED: This survey has concluded.
The Municipality of Strathroy-Caradoc is preparing a Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update to guide the short and long-term provision of parks, facilities, programs, and services.
We recognize that the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted recreation participation; however, your input is very important to understanding local participation and priorities. In some cases, you will be asked to answer the questions based on your pre-COVID activities, and what you would like to see happen in the post-COVID period.
All individual responses will be kept confidential and will be reproduced in summary format for the purposes of this Master Plan only.
Please submit any additional comments to be considered as a part of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update to officialplan@strathroy-caradoc.ca Hard copies of this survey can be provided upon request.
