It should remain primarily a neighborhood park and these plans will accomplish that while also stabilizing the banks.” “Build it!” “I love the addition of the ADA accessible fishing pier. It gives a safe space to view the water & reduces erosion caused by not having a designated space.” How well do the recommendations in this plan preserve the natural character of the area while providing functional gathering space under the tree canopy and along the waterfront?
