Asbury and Dubuque Parks and Rec Boards Both Looking to Revise Masterplans - Check here for hearings and survey.
With the advent of a new season of enjoying warm weather at our local parks, both Asbury and Dubuque are looking at ways to revitalize their respective parks and recreational opportunities by updating their Park Masterplans.
City of Dubuque News Release – March 26, 2025
The City of Dubuque has launched the “Y(O)ur Story” campaign to develop a new Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Master Plan. The six-month process will include numerous opportunities for residents to share their ideas and vision for the future, including two community workshops next week:
Tuesday, April 1, from 5 – 8 p.m. at the Multicultural Family Center, 1157 Central Ave.
Thursday, April 3, from 5 – 8 p.m. at the Veterans Memorial Park Building, 2790 Miracle League Dr.
The workshops will be an open house format. The public is invited to stop by any time to provide input on current and future parks and community recreation needs and priorities.
The purpose of the Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Master Plan is to define opportunities, challenges, and recommendations for the next 10 years and beyond. The theme of the plan, Y(O)ur Story, is based on the idea that a well-crafted master plan tells the story of a city—where it was, where it is, and where it is going. The City of Dubuque is looking to its residents to help write the story, as community participation is critical to the success of the plan.
A host of workshops and community events will be offered, including community workshops, pop-up events, and numerous stakeholder meetings with user groups and community leaders. Residents can participate immediately by visiting the Y(O)ur Story website at YOurStoryDubuque.com. The website provides information and opportunities to share ideas, including:
an online survey,
interactive mapping tool,
a “Share Your Big Idea” public forum,
an interactive budgeting tool to help determine priorities,
and an opportunity to submit general comments.
