Take the Open Space & Recreation SURVEY today!
Public Input Needed!

The Truro Open Space and Recreation Plan, last revised in 2015, is being updated to document the status of the town’s open space and recreation resources, assess needs, determine goals, and set an action plan for achieving them. In conjunction with the Truro Local Comprehensive Plan, this document will help guide the town’s understanding of, and approach to, open space and recreation resource management and protection.  An updated plan, if approved by the state, affords the town eligibility for certain targeted grant funding opportunities through the Massachusetts Division of Conservation Services that will help support open space purchases. 

An initial step in the update process is to solicit public input via the distribution of a survey form and request public comments at advertised public meetings. Public input is vitally important to help assess current attitudes, efforts and needs to define open space and recreation goals.  These goals will guide the definition and implementation of specific actions.

Survey forms may be filled out directly online by following this link: Town of Truro 2023 Open Space and Recreation Plan Public Survey
