Community input will help guide the selection and design of the future improvements
VANCOUVER – The Parks and Nature division of Clark County Public Works invites the community to participate in planning for improvements to Orchards Community Park. A survey is available at clark.wa.gov/public-works/orchards-community-park for community members to submit their ideas and feedback. The survey is also available in Spanish, Russian and Ukrainian. Community members can also request a paper survey by contacting Parks and Trails Planner Michael Chau at michael.chau@clark.wa.gov or (564) 397-5886.
Community input will help guide the selection and design of the future improvements. Engagement with the survey will also support Parks and Nature’s applications for grants from the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office. Grants will support funding for park improvements.
For information about road and park projects, closures, opportunities for community input, and more, residents can follow Public Works on X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook and Instagram and view information on Nextdoor.
