Thank you to everyone who attended the three community meetings and responded to the online survey for the development of Baker Park Addition. Input from the meetings and survey favored safety enhancements, a friendlier pedestrian and dog walking environment, and a butterfly-themed play area. The designers relied on input from the meetings and the online survey in considering how to activate the park. In addition, the design considered the Crown Hill Urban Village up-zoning changes.
