Smith Drive Recreation Area Update

At the December 1, 2022 Board of Commissioners Meeting, the Master Plan for the Smith Dr Recreation Area was approved by the Board of Commissioners. At that same meeting, the Board also took action to approve a contract with YSM Landscape Architects for the creation of construction documents and to guide the Township through the bidding and construction phases of the park development. The park is intended to be constructed in three phases over a period of years. The Master Plan design can be viewed by clicking (here). The phasing plan can be viewed by clicking (here).


At the March 31, 2022 Board of Commissioners Meeting, YSM Landscape Architects were approved to develop a Recreation Master
Plan for a future park on Smith Drive. A study committee of residents was established to help assist with input and ideas. All
Township residents were given the opportunity to give their input and learn about the plan at three public meetings that took place throughout
the planning process. Those public meetings were:
