Survey closes: June 30, 2025
Columbia City has started a community-led process to update its citywide Parks Master Plan. We need your help to determine how to prioritize projects and what we should focus on to keep our parks and activities thriving into the future. We ask you to consider your needs for the future as you evaluate recreation amenities to help guide us in the community’s needs. Your opinions are important. The survey is 15 questions long and will only take a few minutes to complete. You can reply to the survey through the following link https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ColumbiaCityParks. Don’t want to complete it online? That’s okay, a survey will also be mailed to every address in the City.
