Richardson Parks Master Plan

Dunaway worked with the City of Richardson to update their Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master Plan. Uniquely, the city’s park system was almost fully built-out, so key priorities and strategies were critical for keeping Richardson’s system as one of the best in North Texas. In the first phase, the Dunaway team engaged residents and key stakeholders in four focus groups and two open houses. This strong involvement by the community was followed-up with an online citizen survey available for all residents

This far-reaching Master Plan will help guide the city in both redevelopment and new development of park resources, as well as expanding public and private civic spaces. The Master Plan also addresses short-term and long-term needs, focusing on parks, trails, aquatics, facilities, urban plazas, open space, and recreational programming over the next 5-10 years.
