The Ocean Shores Parks Board reviewed and edited a proposed public questionnaire to gather feedback on three recently renovated parks and to support upcoming grant requests.
The chair led line‑by‑line edits: members recommended clarifying whether respondents know a park underwent renovation, adding a question about the ADA wheelchair swing at Chinook, asking for specifics when respondents report cleanliness problems, and adjusting answer options to reflect "when the weather is nice" rather than a generic "seasonally." The board debated whether Emerson Park should be included and settled on keeping all three parks in the outreach.
Nicole, the staff member who will administer the survey, confirmed it will run on SurveyMonkey and that SurveyMonkey can generate a QR code. Board members agreed to distribute the link and QR codes via social media, the city website, school bulletin boards and willing local businesses. They proposed leaving the questionnaire active for about 90 days starting in Q1 so staff can analyze feedback before coordinating grant submittals.
The board asked staff to finalize edits, produce laminated QR signs for placement at key parks, and return with a deployment schedule. No formal vote was recorded on Dec. 10; the board agreed to proceed with edits and distribution planning.
