Bloomingdale Area
Bloomingdale Township, Village and School District developed a joint parks, recreation and open space plan. The Bloomingdale community is blessed with wonderful parks, school facilities and natural resources. The plan lays out a vision for future enhancements and expansions for parks and recreation in the community.
The Hartford Community
In 2006, the City of Hartford and Hartford Township collaborated to create a five-year Community Recreation Plan that would benefit all residents of both communities. Goals for the community include encouraging the preservation of valuable water and land resources while promoting responsible recreational use and preserving and protecting sites and properties that have historic and cultural value and promote rehabilitation and enhancement where needed.
