Parks, marina and recreation committees outline surveys, goose deterrent and trail plans
Council received reports from the Facilities, Parks and Marina committee and the Recreation/Direct Creation (recreation) committee outlining near‑term projects and public engagement plans.

The Facilities, Parks and Marina committee reported a park survey went live Nov. 12 to gather Rossford resident input on park utilization and priorities. Committee members said the city is working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to update county/auditor records so the Marina North Wall is correctly shown as lying in Rossford rather than Toledo. The committee also expects to require full payment and signed dock‑rental paperwork at time of rental, to assign docks on a first‑come, first‑served basis, and to fine boats left beyond the marina closure date.

The committee reported the city purchased a ‘Goosinator’ to reduce goose waste in Veterans Park; officials said the device has been used successfully by other municipalities and will be operated by city employees starting in February. The Veterans Park pathway was reported complete, and the committee said U.S. Utility will install solar lights at Veterans Park. Public Works is requesting contractor proposals to improve the Indian Hills trail system and to evaluate whether solar parking‑lot lighting can be installed with minimal digging.

The Recreation committee highlighted upcoming programs (youth basketball, spring soccer and softball registration) and named a grant opportunity opened by the Ohio Parks and Recreation Association training that requires an application by Jan. 19. Committee members asked for park‑survey results to guide 2026 capital improvements such as the rec center track floor and bleacher projects.

Committee presenters encouraged residents to complete the survey (online and in person at the rec center) and said updated marina letters and rental rules will be provided to boaters prior to enactment.
