Theme 4 - Parks, Community Facilities, and Environmental
Resources
Vision
These
essential elements of community life establish
neighborhood identity and provide valuable services
and programs.
Highlights
North
and West Silver Spring neighborhoods have a
compact, densely developed residential character
with a full complement of community facilities.
These resources are essential elements of community
life that establish neighborhood identity and
provide valuable services and programs. Much
of the appeal and attractiveness of these neighborhoods
is derived from their proximity to natural resources,
particularly the stream valley parks.
Recommendations
Provide community facilities to meet the human service, recreation, security, educational, and other needs of the diverse community.
Renovate
existing facilities and provide new facilities
and recreational programs for a wide range
of ages, backgrounds, and interests.
Design
new development and redevelopment to prevent
conditions that may create local noise and
air pollution nuisances.
Enhance
the natural environment by creating green
spaces and identifying locations for improved
street tree planting.
