Rohnert Park, Parks and Recreation Master Plan Community Survey

The City of Rohnert Park is developing a citywide Parks and Recreation Master Plan to shape the future of our parks and recreation. By creating a Master Plan, we will have a guide to further develop our parks and recreational programs, create and maintain funding, and set priorities for the future. Please take 15 minutes to complete this brief questionnaire so we know how you use the City’s parks, facilities, and recreational programs, and what changes would improve your experience. By including your feedback and input in the planning process, we’ll be able to enhance the quality of life for all Rohnert Park residents.
