Below is a <br />summary of the information collected. <br />Regarding: Priorities for Available Funding <br />1) In general, please rate your support for the improvement priorities (circle one). <br />Scale of 1 -10 with 10 meaning high support and 1 meaning low support. <br />13 = High Support (8-10) <br />2 = Medium Support (4-7) <br />2 = Low Support (1-3) <br />2 = Didn't respond <br />2) Do you feel the improvement priorities meet your needs (circle one)? Yes/ No. <br />Why or why not? <br />12 = Yes <br />4 = No <br />3 = Didn't Respond <br />wny- <br />^ Because the options are well thought out and prioritized as to community need. <br />^ I use the area as an environmental education classroom. The boardwalk would <br />give us year round access. <br />^ I'm pleased the dog park is a priority and I like the wetland areas and the overall <br />balance of natural systems/ people's recreational desires. <br />^ Improved trail and creek crossing. Bathrooms very convenient for jogging and <br />walking. <br />^ The improvements address a wide range of park needs. <br />^ .Bigger and better. <br />^ The restroom at the children's play area is great. <br />^ Footpath to Hilyard with benches. The bridge over the canal is a great idea, I <br />love the serpentine design. <br />^ Increased dog park facilities. Although I would very much like to see the <br />drainage problem addressed. <br />Why not- <br />^ More and more development is encroaching on park. The relentless <br />intensification over time will leave us nothing but intensely developed facilities, <br />but the park will be gone. <br />^ I think the bulk of the money being spent on increasing active recreation <br />increases the pressure on a park already over-grazed by humans. Determining <br />priority improvements would be better accomplished by utilizing the. Feb 2003 <br />survey to meet recreational uses (not needs). <br />^ I would like to see greater stream improvements and connectivity. <br />Amazon Park 7/26/2004 <br />Workshop 3 Questionnaire Results Page 1 <br />
