| | East Nottingham Recreation Plan |
 | | In East Nottingham Township, the youngest population group, at 32.6%, is substantially larger than the County average, indicating the particular importance to recreational planning and programming of consideration of youth programs and children’s facilities, as well as the issue of transportation dependence. |
 | | East Nottingham and Oxford Borough successfully applied for acquisition funds from Chester County in 2000, receiving a $500,000 allocation to purchase parkland that would serve the six-municipality region comprising the school district. |
 | | While significant passive recreational lands and facilities within the region serve Township residents, East Nottingham is not served by dedicated community recreational facilities, including ballfields and courts, except for limited private facilities, and, to the extent that school facilities are available to the general public. |
