Kenneth Young Memorial Park Master Plan

Kenneth Young Memorial Park Master Plan
Dallas Borough is currently planning for the redevelopment of Kenneth Young Memorial Park. A master site plan will be developed to guide future renovations and enhancements to the existing park. The planning efforts will be based upon the collaboration and cooperation of Borough officials and the community at large.

What is a Master Site Plan?
According to Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, the master site plan is generally viewed as a research, public input and an analysis process that leads to a size, type and location plan for the full development or redevelopment of a park site. The plan will meet all current standards and provide for the identified recreation needs and priorities of the community to the extent possible. This means that there must be enough detail developed during the process and provided in the plan narrative report and on the plan drawing to ensure that the facilities meet standards, can in fact be built on the site and that reasonably accurate costs can be estimated.

Opportunities for Public Involvement - Public Meetings

Public Meeting Dates
There will be a series of public meetings scheduled throughout the planning process. Additional meetings will be advertised and announced.

Plan Study Committee (PSC)
In order to provide guidance to the consultants, the Borough has created a Plan Study Committee (PSC). The PSC members are serving in a volunteer capacity representing a variety of interests and opinions regarding the redevelopment of the park. The PSC will meet monthly with the design team to conduct activities associated with the preparation of the master site plan. The Borough intends to hosts focus group and public meetings to provide additional input and guidance to the design team. This input is critical to developing a plan that meets the needs of the community as a whole.
