The next series of postings I have wanted to do for a while now. They pertain to the Grand Chute Park, Trail, Open Space and Recreational Plan. The idea was inspired by comments from Popoki and appleton_lady over on the Post Crescent Community message board. Popoki was wondering about future trails, and apples pointed out it's important for Grand Chute to recongnize green space as a vital role in future development.
A comprehensive plan was compiled by the Parks Commission and approved by the Town Board in late May. It includes projects the park Commission would like to see the Town of Grand Chute undertake in the years 2006 to 2012. The six-year program emphasizes the acquisition of future neighborhood parks, development of existing parks, improvements to existing parks, and the additional trail development. I think residents will find this information interesting and useful. A copy of full 30 page report with maps is on file at the Town Hall.
Next week I will feature highlights from this report, along with the maps, so residents can easily view the plans in store these next few years. I will also be happy to answer any specific questions about our park development.
