CANTON â A new advisory committee is forming following a monthslong review of Cantonâs Recreation Department.
Since mid-December, the joint town and village Recreation Committee has virtually gathered with a community advisory group to âreimagine Canton recreation.â One of several recommendations from the review, the municipal and community group moved to create a standing committee of six to eight members.
Other recommendations, which are published on the municipal website, include considering alternative management models for the Recreation Pavilion; expanding shared services for facility maintenance; exploring economic development funding opportunities; and establishing a capital project fund.
The recommendations distinguish the responsibilities of the municipalities and community members or partner organizations. Budgeting and staffing decisions, for instance, are noted as municipal responsibilities, and continued organization of community recreation events
