Southborough Open Space and Recreation Plan

The Southborough Open Space and Recreation Plan has been approved by the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EOEEA). The Town would like to express its gratitude and appreciation to the residents who participated in the visioning sessions and public forums, and to those who responded to the town-wide survey. With your valuable input, this plan accurately reflects the wishes and needs of Southborough residents, and will be used to help guide decisions that affect the areas of open space and recreation.

The Town is also thankful to the students of the Conway School of Landscape Design who led this effort, and to following individuals and committees who helped to make this plan a reality (this is a partial list only; many others contributed their time and energy to this effort): Open Space Preservation Commission, Recreation Commission, Conservation Commission, Town Planner, Conservation Administrator, and Recreation Director.
