Stakeholders

Stakeholders are an important part of the development of a Municipal Public Access Plan. They can provide initial information on activities and opportunities and later provide review and input on the draft Plan. Needs assessment and stakeholders input on existing and future access provides a clear plan for diverse activities from the minimum (paths, signage) at environmentally critical areas to intense activity at developed locations.
