RICHLAND -- Richland is conducting a series of public meetings to address the plan that guides planning for municipal parks and recreation needs.

The city is seeking input on how best to serve the community when it comes to opportunities for facilities as well as cultural, recreational and leisure activities.

The plan, which is reviewed on a six-year basis, will expire in June. The Parks, Trails and Open Space Master Plan is a Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office requirement for acquiring state grants.

The first public meeting is from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Richland Community Center, 500 Amon Park Drive.
