Welcome to the Parks Project Portal 

The Frederick County Division of Parks and Recreation is engaged in a variety of park improvement projects in order to achieve our mission of delivering high quality facilities to our residents. Due to the complex nature of projects and the unpredictability of the construction industry at this time, project updates are very fluid and can change on a weekly basis. 

As a means to keep you informed we have created an interactive Parks Projects Portal (PPP)! The PPP provides status reports on all projects happening within the park system, special presentations, and an opportunity for you to provide comments and feedback on existing projects or recommendations for new projects. 

We invite you to explore!

The Parks Project Portal will be updated on an ongoing basis - we appreciate your patience as we work to provide the most up to date project details!

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience during the construction of these park improvements. For more information, please call Frederick County Parks and Recreation at (301) 600-1646.

Planning

A project in the planning stage is in the early stages of formal development. It may involve site selection, community engagement, concept development, feasibility studies, and master planning. This phase focuses on determining the scope, location, and priorities before moving to design.
