Join the park planning process
We are reimagining our neighborhood parks with residents, and would love for you to help! We know that the best way to make our parks relevant to communities and loved by residents is to listen and respond to our community's needs. Sign up today to be part of the neighborhood parks planning process and help us decide what park features best fit you and your community's needs!
Park Planning Evaluation Findings
Over 2021, we deeply evaluated our park spaces and the communities that lie within our neighborhood park regions. These findings help us shape our goals in providing updates to our park properties and the rate in which we work with our surrounding communities. To read the entirety of our evaluation findings, click here.
MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD
As we build and maintain parks and programs, park user perspectives are invaluable. Let us know what you notice, what you would like to see more of, and aspects of our services that you would like to see change. We value your feedback and want to hear all of your fantastic ideas.

Westmoreland Neighborhood Organization is designing a safe and accessible park on community land which they will be donating to the city to maintain and program upon completion. Through the process of working with city and regional partners to design, fundraise, and construct the park, residents are fostering a sense of community pride and taking ownership of the greenspace in their neighborhood. Check out this link to learn more about their process and progress, and join them in the effort of making Danville’s newest neighborhood park!
