Do you run a business or non-profit in Squamish? Do you live near a park?
If your answer to one of those questions is yes, the District of 麻豆社国产is looking for your feedback into a proposed new park use program. It is intended to expand on the temporary program launched in June 2020, which aimed to allow businesses and non-profit organizations to operate outdoors during the pandemic. The two separate surveys are now available online at through April 5.
“Outdoor parks and spaces add vibrancy and opportunities for connection to our community and the demand for municipal park use in 麻豆社国产continues to grow,” said Mayor Karen Elliott, in a news release.
“We look forward to building on the success of our temporary park use program by creating a permanent system in order to allow businesses and non-profit organizations to book and use municipal park space with ease. We look forward to hearing from our businesses and non-profit organizations, as well as community members, about their visions for park use in 麻豆社国产and how we can spend more time outside together.”
The park use program will allow businesses and non-profits to offer a range of outdoor programming, event and experiences. This includes fitness, education services, cultural experiences, mental health services, family programming and retail pop-ups. Special events such as concerts, festivals, and markets will continue to be processed through a separate application process.
Survey results will be presented to council in the spring of 2022. The current temporary park use program will expire on June 1, 2022.
