Currently Middleton has a Comprehensive PROJECT Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP) that was adopted in 2014. In 2020, the City contracted with MSA Professional Services, MILESTONES Inc. to assist with an update to the 2014-2019 plan. Early in the planning process Middleton facilitated an online FEBRUARY-MARCH 2020 community survey to gather citizen feedback on desired public park, trail and recreational facilities. The process also • Staff Kick-Off Working included a public involvement meeting (PIM) which was Session held virtually due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Though we often find that disparities exist in the distribution and quality of parks and recreation amenities, many parks and recreation departments across the U.S. are now rethinking how to engage and provide benefits to residents who do not currently have access to parks. If parks can be more inclusive, they have the potential to function as a nucleus of neighborhood activity, where residents can gather for social events, recreational activities, and meetings about local issues, increasing social interaction and creating an overall sense of community.
