Parks System Master Plan
The creation of a Parks System Master Plan for Salt Spring Island was one of the recommendations of the 2009 Salt Spring Island Parks and Recreation Strategic Plan.
The purpose of this Salt Spring Island Parks System Master Plan is to consolidate information on existing parks, trails and water accesses for the Island and to provide direction for the foreseeable future. Specifically,
- to ensure that, where possible, the community’s recreation needs are met;
- to continue to support conservation efforts for sensitive ecosystems preservation, habitat, riparian areas and wildlife corridors;
- to facilitate collaboration between provincial agencies and local community groups with regards to implementation of the plan;
- to identify gaps in the existing parks and trails system;
- to propose methods and means of filling those gaps;
- to categorize types of parks and their function; and
- to provide a more comprehensive plan for Rainbow Road Park.
