The Whitehall Borough Parks Plan

The Whitehall Parks Master Plan is a culmination of efforts over three years. The Parks Planning Committee has been seeking to both update the Comprehensive Park Plan and establish a new master plan for each neighborhood park. Along with creating a direction for future funding, the park master planning process will provide essential feedback from the community.
