Town of Okotoks Response to the Social Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic (2022)

Since the 2017 Plan, the Town focused on social impacts of COVID-19 and highlighted its commitment to support the mental and physical wellness of residents and increasing community connection. Recreation, parks and leisure are a key contributor to this end.

This work highlighted a renewed focus for the Town related to providing inclusive and accessible options, engaging youth, combating social isolation, improving communication and enhancing social connection and civility – most of these themes were highlighted in the 2017 Master Plan and should continue to be a focus for recreation, parks and leisure.
