Purpose:        

The Parks, Recreation and Open Space, or PROS, Plan is a strategic plan that relies on public input to prioritize the operation and development of the Clark County park system. An update of the PROS Plan is required every six years of the Growth Management Act per RCW 35.70A(8). This plan also assists the County in being eligibility for state and federal grants. The Clark County Council voted to adopt the current PROS Plan that reflects community priorities and establishes long-term goals for land acquisition, facility development and parks management.

Plan Update:

Clark County began the process to update the PROS Plan during 2020. The County completed a robust public process, engaging with residents through surveys, virtual meetings and one-on-one stakeholder meetings to develop the 2022 PROS Plan. Due to COVID-19, the planning process has taken longer than originally anticipated. The​ Clark County Parks Advisory Board played an integral role in developing the adopted plan. During plan development, the PROS Plan was presented to the Clark County Planning Commission as well and they vote unanimously to move it forward to the Clark County Council. The Clark County Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan 2022-2027 was adopted by the Clark County Council on April 19, 2022
