Kingsley Master Plan and Recreation Plan
Village of Kingsley Master Plan and Park & Recreation Plan
The Village of Kingsley is working with Networks Northwest to update their current Master Plan and Park & Recreation Plan into one document. The Master Plan is a guide for the future of the community's land use, economy, transportation, infrastructure and more. The recreation planning component will allow the Village to access funding from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to help pay for park or trail improvements. This planning process will occur from 2024 to 2025. Please use this page to stay up to date on how you can participate.

Recreation Plan
Kingsley's Park & Recreation Plan has been adopted by the Village Council. Click the thumbnail below to view the plan, which will appear as a chapter in the final Kingsley Master Plan.
Our Township greatly benefits from Network Northwest's experience, depth of knowledge and understanding. Because they work with so many diverse communities in our ten-county region they understand the local land-use issues and are already working on solutions by the time we realize we need some help.
