PARKS & RECREATION BAY TREE PARK PICNIC TABLE SURVEY RESULTS
Based on neighborhood feedback, your Baywood Neighborhood Association worked with the City's Parks and Recreation Department on a survey to ask the community whether or not to add 1 or 2 picnic tables to Bay Tree Park so that neighbors could take more advantage of this beautiful park. Thanks to the 60+ of you who took the survey...we have a very engaged neighborhood!
The majority of survey respondents supported the new picnic tables. But it was a small majority and those opposed to the picnic tables felt very strongly they would make the area too noisy.
Since we proposed the idea as a way to improve everyone's enjoyment of the park, we have decided NOT to proceed with installing picnic tables at this time. Thanks to everyone who shared their opinions with us and Parks and Rec. Please continue to send your ideas to us for how to make Baywood an even more vibrant community.
