Dunstable Larter Field Master Plan Survey

The Town of Dunstable is developing a Master Recreation Plan for Larter Field, the Town’s primary recreation area. The Master Plan will guide a comprehensive update to the site and identify priorities for improvements over time.

Recent public outreach, including Open Space and Recreation Plan (OSRP) engagement and Route 133 Visioning project, highlighted the importance of accessible, walkable, and welcoming community spaces that serve community members of all ages while preserving Dunstable’s pastoral character. This survey builds on that input and focuses specifically on what the community needs and values at Larter Field, and what should be included in the Master Plan.

Survey results will inform a public design workshop (charrette), where community members will help explore design concepts, priorities, and tradeoffs for the future of Larter Field. Community members are encouraged to participate in both the survey and the workshop; ideas shared at the workshop may also be reflected in the survey before it closes.

Public Design Workshop (Charrette): Tuesday, February 10, 6:00–7:30 PM at Swallow Union Elementary School.
