COMMUNITY GARDENS IN THE PARKS

SITE & USAGE SURVEY

INSTRUCTIONSThis survey will determine the existing conditions near the proposed Community Garden site by identifying who

currently uses the site, types of activities going on, which days and hours the park is most heavily used, weather

conditions, and other amenities around the site such as a playlot or athletic field.

Please be informed that

Three separate site visits are to be conducted over a period of one to two weeks. Of these three required visits to the park, one is to be during peak usage time on a weekday & one during

peak usage time on a weekend (work with the park supervisor to find peak usage times).

The Park Supervisor must accompany you on the first survey visit. Please visit during times of high usage. If any part of the required written proposal documents is incomplete and/or insufficient, you will be

required to resubmit the documents. This will delay your groups application process.

All completed documents of Step 4 as outlined in the Manual, should be sent as a package to:

For an Ornamental community garden For an Edibles or Combination community garden
