The City of Goleta needs your help in answering that question as it kicks off the Recreation Needs Assessment.  This study will analyze current recreation offerings and identify current and future needs in Goleta.

The City held its first Recreation Needs Assessment  workshop on Wednesday, September 24 at the Goleta Valley Community Center. Attendees provided their input on what makes Goleta a great place to live for recreation, what challenges we face, and how the City can enhance recreation in the community. We look forward to hearing more from our residents at the upcoming workshops!

Community participation is critical to ensure findings are reflective of the needs of the City’s diverse community. Both active and passive recreation will be considered as will recreation opportunities for all age groups.  This study will result in recommendations that will guide the efforts of the City for years to come.
