<br /> <br /> <br />DATE: September 1, 2021 <br /> <br />TO: Park Board Members <br /> <br />FROM: Rick DeGardner, Public Services Director <br /> <br />RE: Determine Park Naming Recommendations <br /> <br /> <br />The Park Board created a process for naming the new park at Centerville Road and Birch Street as <br />well as considering the renaming of City Hall Park during the June, 2021 Park Board meeting. The <br />first survey produced 19 different name suggestions for Centerville Road/Birch Street Park and <br />eight different name suggestions for City Hall Park. During the August 4, 2021 meeting, the Park <br />Board decided to move forward with the following names for the final feedback survey: <br /> <br />Centerville Road & Birch Street Park (1750 Birch Street) <br />• Tower Park <br />• Blue Heron Park <br />• Water Tower Park <br /> <br />City Hall Park (1189 Main Street) <br />• Old City Hall Park <br />• Main Street Park <br /> <br />There were 76 respondents. Approximately 50% voted for Tower Park, with Blue Heron Park and <br />Water Tower Park each around 25%. <br /> <br />An overwhelming majority (approximately 75%) voted for Main Street Park, over Old City Hall <br />Park. <br /> <br />The next step in the process is for the Park Board to prepare a recommendation for City Council <br />consideration that will be placed on the September 13 City Council meeting agenda. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
