What's on this agenda

The board will hear a presentation on a Universal Design resolution -- accessibility standards for parks and facilities -- and review a draft master plan for Kings Highway Park. Neither is up for a vote at this meeting.

The balance of the agenda is routine: minutes approval, liaison reports from the Board of Commissioners, Planning Board, and an intergovernmental parks work group, individual updates from stewards at seven town parks, and staff notes on recent repairs, Creek Week, and the Climate Challenge program.
