For generations, the City’s <br />residents and leaders have recognized the value of parks and recreation in <br />improving their quality of life and generating a true sense of community. They <br />have consistentely demonstrated their belief that enhancing these assets is an <br />investment in their future, leaving a legacy for the next generation. <br />In late 2010, Roseville adopted a Park and Recreation System Master Plan (Master <br />Plan) following a comprehensive community engagement effort over several <br />years. That Master Plan embodies this generation’s vision of the legacy they want <br />to leave, and it has been influential in the built park and recreation projects that <br />have taken place since it was created. <br />Beginning in 2010, Roseville has made major investments in the parks and <br />rereation system, called the Roseville Park and Recreation Renewal Program <br />(PRRP). This $19 million program added improved and/or replaced amenities, <br />including selective land acquisitions, new park buildings, playgrounds, natural <br />resource restoration, trails and pathways, and other facilities. It touched every <br />park in the system and post-project surveys clearly reflect how these <br />improvements have been positively received by the public. <br />Beyond the PRRP, the Parks and Recreation System Master Plan continues to guide <br />investments, such as recently completed projects like the reconfiguration of <br />Evergreen Park, the Cedarholm Community Building, Midland Gardens Park in <br />southwest Roseville, and Unity Park in southeastern Roseville. As part of this <br />public comprehensive planning process, it is evident that residents and leaders still <br />strongly support the Master Plan and see value in continuing on the path it laid <br />out. Therefore, this chapter of the Plan is primarily focused on updating any <br />elements that have changed since 2010 and tying this vision strongly to the overall <br />planning for Roseville as a whole. <br />Chapter 8 Page 1 <br /> <br />
