FINAL REPORT Report of Leisure Study Group 12/10/92 Roseville zs fortunate to have many current leisure programs and facilities. Co�lectively they promote a high degree of unity, activi- ty and pride. Some examples include Central Park, the Ice Arena, the Activity Center,-Cedarholm Golf Course and the Harriet Alexander Nature Center. Leisure activity is a critical factor in evaluating quality of life issues. The community is constantly demanding more quality Ieisure activities. Today's leisure opportunities are mult�faceted, and it is important to offer a variety of qual�ty leisure apportunities at a reasonable cost to the city and its participants. Convenient, quali- ty leisure activity is an important factor in determining where sin- gles, couples and families Iocate. In the future, it is also antici- pated that this wi1Z be a greater contributing factor where businesses locate. The type of leisure activities offered in a community contributes significantly to the demographics of the area. A vibrant and viable community needs a balance of leisure activity which will attract indiv�duals and famiZies of all ages, economic status and backgrounds. The VISTA 2000 Leisure Study Group for the City of Roseville has developed a vision for leisure activity in the community for the year 2000 and beyond. We have delineated goals necessary to realize that vision. The group has also identified possible strategies and other suggest�ans far achieving those goals. These goals are grouped under five categories: Parks, Facilities, Volunteerism, Pathways and Pro- grams. VISION STATE!ffi�T The lezsure activities of Roseville shou�d dEmonstrate a uniqueness that reflects its diversity, creativity, talen�, professionalism, and especially the values of a proud community. We believe that the devei- opment of activities and programs must accommodate a variety a� inter- ests, stimulate creativity and learning, allow for nature appreciation and meet aesthetic, cultural, social and athletic needs of all in the community . Al1 lezsure activities and facilit�es wi11 be accessible for a11 persans and wi11 provide opportunities for participation by all age groups from early chiZdhood to senior adults and for families as well as for individuals. All leisure activities and facilities wil]. be affordable and no resident will be precluded from participation be- cause of financial constraints. 1
