It helps the city and community leaders assess the park <br />facilities in meeting the community's recreation needs. This plan also points out <br />deficiencies in the system and recommends alternatives to address and correct <br />those deficiencies. The plan looks to the future and assesses where additional <br />facilities will be needed as the city grows, and what types of facilities are most <br />needed. A key component of the Parks, Open Space and Trail Master <br />Plan/Recovery Action Plan is the prioritization of improvements, so that the most <br />significant deficiencies are addressed as quickly as possible. <br />In this way, the master plan guides city leaders in detennining where funding <br />may be aDocated over the next five to 10 years. <br /> <br /> <br />View from Sylvan Beach Park overlooking Galveston Bay <br /> <br />Chapter I ..
