Survey Introduction:

We’re excited to share two draft concepts for the future of Rohr Park! Both reflect what we heard from the community in the first round of outreach and explore different directions for improving the park. 

  • Alternative 1: Light Touch focuses on improving and preserving existing features, with subtle enhancements to trails, fields, and landscaping. 
  • Alternative 2: Active Community Hub introduces new recreational spaces like play areas, a splash pad, courts, and a rebuilt Rohr Manor for community use. 

Each concept offers great ideas, but with limited resources, we can’t do it all. This survey will help us understand your interest in improving existing features versus adding new ones, and how we should prioritize improvements. Your input will shape a balanced final design that reflects community priorities and practical needs.
