The City of Duluth completed a comprehensive Parks Master plan in December 2010 and is completing a Trails/Bikeways Master Plan in July 2011.  The people of Duluth, as part of the Parks Master Plan process, stated the need for additional resources on the city’s parks and trails/bikeways systems.  The City would like to know what you love about the city’s parks and trails/bikeways system and how do we build a parks and trails/bikeways system that we can afford.  In addition the City would like to find out from the public what you would like to see invested in and completed if there were extra resources/funding available.
