PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT
Public input is an essential part of this process and the City would like to work with the public to de�ne goals for the park and envision how those goals might be achieved. This process will help de�ne what uses are appropriate and desired, analyze opportunities and constraints of the current park site and program, and determine how the public will use the park in the future.
