What is happening?

The City of Bethlehem is creating a community-driven plan and needs your help to define a vision for the future!

The 40 in 10: Every Park in 10 Years plan will guide decision-making and strategic planning for the rehabilitation and maintenance of Bethlehem’s constellation of parks & recreation opportunities for the next ten years. The plan will identify recommendations for short-term improvements as well as long-term strategic goals for the City’s 40+ parks. The aim is to create a stellar network of equitable, well-marketed, and interconnected parks, trails, and programming that are accessible to people of all abilities.

Building on the success of improvements made since the city’s 2017 Comprehensive Parks Study, the 40 in 10: Every Park in Ten Years plan is being led by the City in partnership with Omnes (www.omnes.studio), a landscape architecture and planning firm based in Easton. Omnes is guiding the yearlong, community-driven planning process, with the voices of all in Bethlehem informing strategies of the new plan.
