The last City of Rowlett Parks and Recreation Master Plan was adopted in December 2003. Since that time, many changes have occurred within the community and surrounding areas. This update is a 5-month process and will result in a detailed “road map” that will identify community priorities for recreation and park facilities, as well as outline a plan of action. Input from local interest groups, community organizations and businesses, public officials and private citizens will be critical to help establish priorities for current and future parks and recreation services, programs and facilities offered within the City of Rowlett.
