The Community and Recreation Facilities Strategy will be developed under the following principles:
- Build a healthy and engaged community, foster active lifestyles, and promote skill development
- Provide inclusive, affordable and accessible recreational opportunities for all Haldimand residents, especially youth and seniors
- Ensure that major facilities are multi-use, multi-generational, programmable year-round and responsive to the needs of our local communities
- Foster and support partnerships that create synergies, leverage resources and allow the County to maintain core services
- Make decisions that are financially responsible and sustainable for the County and its residents
