# Community and Recreation Facilities Strategy
Our Community and Recreation Facilities Strategy identifies the major facility needs across Haldimand County and the long-term implementation plan.
---
Haldimand County's Community and Recreation Facilities Strategy, approved by Council in December 2024, provides strategic recommendations for the development of community facilities and spaces for aquatics, sports, leisure, wellness, arts and culture over the next twenty years. It is the result of extensive community engagement, research and data analysis, and aligns with Haldimand County's 2025-2045 Strategic Plan.
Several factors were considered when developing the Strategy, including:
* Public feedback
* Facility needs
* Partnership opportunities
* Potential locations
* Financial feasibility
## General Overview
The Strategy process and development were undertaken in consultation with Monteith Brown Planning Consultants, MJMA Architecture and Design Group, and the JF Group.
The Community and Recreation Facilities Strategy guiding principles include:
* Build a healthy and engaged community, foster active lifestyles, and promote skill development
* Provide inclusive, affordable and accessible recreational opportunities for all Haldimand residents, especially youth and seniors
* Ensure that major facilities are multi-use, multi-generational, programmable year-round and responsive to the needs of our local communities
* Foster and support partnerships that create synergies, leverage resources and allow Haldimand County to maintain core services
* Make decisions that are financially responsible and sustainable for Haldimand County and its residents
