Memorial Park Master Plan - Community Survey 1
What is your vision for Memorial Park?
Welcome to the first community survey for the Memorial Park Master Plan!
Memorial Park is a beloved community treasure that has evolved organically over the years. Through active community engagement, technical analysis, and creative placemaking, the Memorial Park Master Plan will create a roadmap for the park’s future. We invite your feedback through the following survey. Additional surveys and community meetings will be held throughout the planning process.
Please mark your calendars for our first meeting!
