The Town Council of Hertford adopted Resolution FY26-8 to formally adopt the Perquimans County Comprehensive Parks and Recreation Plan as its guiding document for recreational development, land acquisition, and facility management. The resolution notes that the plan includes specific upgrade requests for Hertford’s local recreational facilities and lays out a 10-year blueprint for acquiring, preserving, and developing parks, green spaces, and trails.
