Consultation has concluded

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected our city, the nation, and the world in unprecedented ways, both in our immediate behavior, but also for design considerations for long-range planning. For months, we were not able to use our beloved DPR parks and still cannot fully access all of the amenities in our parks or the rec centers and typical programming and summer camps we are used to. It is critical that as we come out of our stay at home order and more of us begin visiting our favorite parks and green spaces again that we maintain a safe social distance to protect the most vulnerable among us.

As part of our Ready2Play plan, we want to hear how the current pandemic, and especially the time of our recent Stay at Home order, have impacted the way that you've used and experienced public space or have witnessed public space being used by others. We also want to gather any ideas you have now that we will be living in a post-Covid world on how you think the pandemic will and should impact future design considerations for parks, playgrounds, rec centers and other amenities going forward.

If you were able to find new ways to safely use and enjoy public or semi-public space for outdoor recreation during the Stay at Home, or if you have ideas on future design and planning considerations for parks and recreation in a post-Covid world, we want to hear from you!
