The framework for the next decade of development for Lenexa’s Parks and Recreation department is in place. On April 16, the Lenexa City Council unanimously accepted the Parks and Recreation Master Plan. Last updated in 2012, the plan is a living document that sets goals and objectives, and shapes policies to help guide the future development of the city’s parks and recreation department over the next 10 years. “It’s certainly not something we just put on a shelf and never look at again,” said Logan Wagler, parks and recreation director. “It’s something we use on a daily basis, almost — how we plan our programs, operate our facilities and, most importantly, capital planning and future investments going forward.” Working with the Olathe-based consulting firm Landworks Studio, Lenexa Parks and Recreation built the plan around more than a year of feedback they gathered from residents through open houses, focus groups and online platforms.
