32 Community Meeting #1 Summary of Feedback Detention basin needs to retain existing drainage function, but can accommodate some alterations and activity. Identify continued location for community garden use. Future acquisiton of Hanson Farmstead may accommodate community gardens, event center, camping, or other activity long-term. Try to locate baseball stadium parking est or south of stadium rather than north to limit vehicles through park and reduce alking distances. Location for 4 to 6 volleyball courts needed. Consolidate disc golf to northern part of park. Consider relocating camping outside of park or at Hanson Farmstead longterm. Consider relocating skatepark elsehere in park system. Baseball/softball fields should increase to 300 feet. Needs for entry signage and trailhead signage. All parking to have integreated stormater management features. hoffman park - preliminary draft concepts
