General Information
Community Input
The success of any governmental agency can only be
accomplished with ongoing conversations and input with the
community it serves. The Park District of Highland Park utilizes
a number or means to give you, our residents, a voice in your
Park District, including:
• Long-standing resident volunteer committees headed by Park
Board members such as the Athletics and Golf Committees
• Ad hoc resident volunteer advisory committees for large
special projects such as the Rosewood Beach renovation
• Monthly facility open houses held throughout the year
at each facility for participants and interested residents
to share their thoughts and ideas about our facilities and
programming
• Adhoc special project open houses for neighborhoods
and interested residents to share their thoughts and ideas
on projects such as new park playgrounds and other
improvements
• Customer satisfaction surveys distributed to program and
camp participant families on an on-going basis
• Attitude and Interest surveys and focus groups conducted
throughout the community for special projects
The feedback we receive from you in these conversations along
with personal conversations, phone calls, and emails we receive
each day are invaluable to ensure the Park District of Highland
Park continues to meet the needs of our community today and
for future generations.
