Parks and Recreation Master Plan

Implementation Courtenay’s Parks and Recreation Master Plan (PRMP), was adopted in 2019. An Implementation Strategy was outlined as the next step in the process for the Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The work on this strategy was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic but it remained a priority for the City to support the implementation of recommendations contained within the PRMP. The Implementation Strategy was approved by Council in October 2023. The Strategy prioritizes and guides the City’s work plan, capital and operation expenditures and strategic initiatives for park and recreation over the next ten years.
