Other Information (Overview, Responsibilities, etc.)
The Parks and Recreation Committee provides advice to Council regarding the maintenance and development of parkland owned by the municipality. Committee Members annually produce a five-year development plan for existing parks. The objective is to provide recreational and park setting opportunities for groups throughout the year.
Not only does the Park and Recreation Committee keep a watchful eye over College Township parks, but Committee Members are also involved in reviewing recreation and open space plans for new developments and making recommendations to the Township Planning Commission. They are very involved in the planning of Township bike paths and were involved in making recommendations to Council on the Township's Official Map, which identifies future parkland and open space needs.
