DATE: June 18, 2009
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting — June 25, 2009
ITEM: 1081. Consider an ordinance adopting the Game Plan 2020: Building an Active
Community; The Round Rock Strategic Parks and Recreation Master Plan
(Second Reading)
Department: Parks and Recreation
Staff Person: Rick Atkins, Director of Parks and Recreation
David Buzzell, Parks Development Manager
Justification:
Game Plan 2020: Building an Active Community is the new strategic parks and recreation master plan
for Round Rock. The Plan is an update to the Parks and Open Space Master Plan from 2001. Game Plan
2020 will be the guiding document for the department for the next ten years as it relates to the
planning, acquisition, development, programming, maintenance and operation of the parks and
recreation system in Round Rock. The strategic plan expands the previous master plan information to
include department business plans, maintenance and operations plan, capital improvements plan, and
partnership and alternative funding plan. Game Plan 2020 also includes a minor update to the 2004
Citywide Trails Master Plan and will be included in the overall Strategic Parks and Recreation Master Plan.
Staff recommends not dispensing with the second reading of this ordinance.
Funding:
Cost: $165,000.00
Source of funds: 2000 CO's and General Self Finance
Outside Resources: Halff Associates, Inc.
Background Information:
Due to the growth of the city, the 2001 Parks and Open Space Master Plan is outdated and no longer is a
useful planning tool for the department. Therefore in late 2005, PARD sent out a Request for
Qualifications (RFQ) for a new Strategic Master Plan. Due to the Ten Year Plan Process, the Strategic
Parks and Recreation Master Plan was on hold until the Ten Year Plan Process was complete. Game Plan
2020 took about 18 months to complete which included a four month long public input process and a
two month long park and recreation facility inventory. The Plan format was modified to relate to the
City's Strategic Plan terminology and structure.
