Town requesting feedback on draft Recreation, Culture and Leisure Services Master Plan

The Town of St. Marys is inviting community members to provide feedback on the draft Recreation, Culture, and Leisure Services Master Plan. This plan, now in its second phase, aims to enhance the town's recreational, cultural, and leisure offerings.

In June 2024, the town completed the first phase of public engagement, gathering input on the types of facilities, services, and programs needed to meet local needs. The draft plan, developed using community feedback, demographic data, growth forecasts, participation and usage levels, and best practices, is now ready for review.

A copy of the draft Recreation, Culture and Leisure Services Master Plan is available online at www.townofstmarys.com/RCLSMP.

Residents can provide their feedback in several ways. The survey is accessible online at www.townofstmarys.com/RCLSMP, with print copies available at Town Hall, the St. Marys Public Library, Pyramid Recreation Centre, and Municipal Operations Centre. The survey will remain open until January 13, 2025.

Written comments can be submitted in-person at Town facilities or sent by email to sische@town.stmarys.on.ca.

Once completed, the Recreation, Culture and Leisure Services Master Plan Update will guide the delivery of recreation, culture and leisure opportunities in St. Marys for the next 10 years.

For more information, visit www.townofstmarys.com/RLCSMP or contact Stephanie Ische, Director of Community Services at 519-284-2340 ext. 624 or sische@town.stmarys.on.ca.
