The Oxford Area Regional Park master plan will be unveiled at a public meeting scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 6 p.m. at the Herr’s Visitor Center, 271 Old Baltimore Pike in Nottingham.

The public will be able to view the Oxford Area regional Park Pre-Final Master Plans for Parcels 1, 2 and 3. Park consultants will present the pre-final master plans and request comments and ideas. Your input it important and will help establish priorities for future recreation enhancements.

The Oxford Area Recreation Authority (OARA) is a Pennsylvania municipal authority incorporated in 2003 to provide shared recreation facilities for a population of approximately 24,000 residents of East Nottingham Township, Elk Township, Lower Oxford Township, Oxford Borough, and West Nottingham Township.

Many people have been anxiously waiting to see what the master plan will bring to the community.

The community may be aware of the dog park, walking trails, sports fields and playgrounds, and special events, but now they can view what is planned for the future.

It is hoped that the future plan will include new venues for families and local youth to attend. This is the moment for the public to tell the OARA Board what they would like to see in the community.
