Seattle Parks and Recreation
2006 Development Plan

Introduction
This is Seattle’s Parks and Recreation 2006 Development Plan, which replaces Seattle’s Parks and Recreation Plan 2000, previously adopted by the Seattle City Council Resolution 30181. This plan is specific to acquisition and development efforts that will be pursued over the next five to six years. It will be submitted to the Washington State InterAgency Committee for Outdoor Recreation to maintain Seattle’s eligibility for grants that will help realize such projects.

This document provides a recap of goals and policies relative to park acquisition and development, an update of our Gap Analyses that indicates the areas of the city where the City’s distribution guidelines for parks and open space remain to be met, and Seattle’s adopted 2006-2011 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for parks and recreation. Seattle’s adopted 2006-2011 CIP for the Department of Parks and Recreation is part of the city-wide CIP adopted by Ordinance 121991.
