Park System Plan

What is a Park System Plan?

The City of Buffalo is planning for the next 10-20 years of parks and trails investments. The Parks Advisory Board, city staff, and park planners are interested in how residents and visitors use the parks and trails today and what could be improved or added in the system.

The City of Buffalo maintains over 30 parks, approximately 11.5 miles of trails, and a variety of recreational amenities. With growing population pressures and evolving community needs, a comprehensive and forward-looking Park system Plan is critical to ensure accessible, responsibly managed and maintained facilities, and long-term strategic investments. This planning process is partially funded by a grant received from the Minnesota Statewide Health Improvement Plan.
