Public Outreach Event Summary <br />June 17, 2022 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br /> <br />7. The Firehouse Arts Center is currently underutilized and the new design for the parks will really <br />help to better utilize the Firehouse. <br /> <br />8. Great idea to open the lawn area as shown in the 2022 concept plan! <br />9. The design is a really sick idea! (as stated by 3 boys riding their scooters) <br />10. I totally support the new design. <br />11. Several children stated that they like playing in the creek. <br />12. Don’t install decomposed granite in front of the bandstand because it causes a mess and kicks <br />up too much dust – install pavers or pavement instead. <br /> <br />13. Handicap, motorcycle, and bike parking is needed in the park and downtown! <br />14. We support the design and idea of relocating the bandstand and creek as shown. <br />15. Sun exposure is a problem in Lions Wayside Park – make sure there is enough shade. <br />16. Move the bandstand to the east of the Firehouse. <br />17. Why not move the Summer Concert Series to another park that is better suited for large crowds <br />like Bernal Community Park? Another resident responded that it is because Lions Wayside and <br />Delucchi Parks are the downtown parks. <br /> <br />18. Moving the creek seems crazy and a waste of taxpayer’s money. This statement was seconded <br />by another resident but opposed by the other resident in the group. <br /> <br />19. Why not just rebuild the bandstand in the same location? <br />20. Consider putting some sort of barrier between the Kottinger Creek and First St to prevent <br />children from going out into the street. <br /> <br />21. Keep the picnic tables or locate more picnic tables throughout the parks. I like to eat lunch in <br />the park. <br /> <br />22. Design the bandstand to be large enough for a 40-person band (the existing bandstand barely <br />could fit a 40-person ensemble). <br /> <br />23. Like the flow and design of the new park. <br />24. The new concept alienates Delucchi Park from the bandstand/music. <br />25. Include a secondary audience area in the design. <br />26. Leave the creek where it is – kids like to play in it. <br />27. Allow open containers/alcohol in the park for events. <br />28. I want to be able to see the park from my car when I drive down First Street. <br />29. The proposed design is a great idea!
