Background
In September 2019, Alcaldessa Karen Collins presented a proposal to create a citizens group to review how similar-sized cities in Sonoma and Napa Counties operate their Parks and Recreation programs. The goal of this initiative is to identify and implement new processes to further support a robust Parks and Recreation program here in the City of Sonoma.
With support from Council, City staff collaborated with Ms. Collins and key recreation partners to create a phased work plan and strategy for the creation of a comprehensive, multi-year Recreation and Park Master Plan. At their December 14, 2020 meeting, Sonoma City Council approved a resolution authorizing the formation of the Community Recreation & Parks Task Force and the launch of “Phase 1” of the work plan, along with $20,000 in funding from the General Fund Reserves for this initial effort.
