But the 55 respondents were more greatly divided when it came to determining just what should be done. According to the survey, the most popular suggestion was to provide small clusters of benches and seating areas throughout the park. Other popular suggestions included repairing the grass and adding durable walking surfaces. The least popular ideas included removing all sitting spaces, converting the park to a parking lot and selling the park for development. The survey showed Triangle Park is the least used local park facility.
Towns are often the authors of their own misfortune.
This is a great, caring community but a blight on urban planning. By contrast, the most popular and most often used park is the Oliver Hike and Bike Trail, followed by the Community Park, Rotary Beach and Lions Park. Respondents were asked if the town should encourage transients to gather in any one specific area. The two most acceptable spots, although support was slim, were Lions Park and Triangle Park. The majority of respondents believe financial support for changes to Triangle Park should come from donations, while many would like to see funding come jointly from town and rural tax revenues.
