INTRODUCTION

COMMUNITY DEMOGRAPHICS

The 2015 Dallas Parks Master Plan provides a 20-year vision for development, maintenance, and operation of the City of Dallas, Oregon’s entire park system. The comprehensive plan articulates the community’s vision to provide healthy and enjoyable recreational opportunities to its residents and visitors. This Plan provides specific tools and guidance for achieving the goals and specific action items envisioned by city staff and the community at large. 

During the next 20 years, the City of Dallas is expected to experience significant population growth. Developing a Parks Master Plan will ensure the City is better prepared to meet the recreational needs of existing residents and future generations. The 2015 Dallas Parks Master Plan describes the community’s vision and provides specific tools and components necessary to achieve that vision. 

The plan includes the following components:
  • A community profile that describes demographic, housing and recreational trends and characteristics of the residents in Dallas;

  • An inventory of existing parks and recreation facilities within the City;

  • Findings from the planning process and community engagement including what residents value most about the existing parks system, potentially underserved populations, and wants and needs for future park development;

  • Vision statement, goals, and recommendations for the entire park system and park-specific improvements;

  • Strategies for developing new parkland to better serve a growing community; and

  • Strategies for funding and operation of the park system.
