Dearborn County Parks Survey | Share Your Feedback

Home > Survey

Dearborn County Park Board is currently updating its Five-Year Master Plan and would like your feedback on the following questions in order to improve this process and our lovely parks. The Master Plan is used by the Park Board to provide a strategic plan and goals for all 5 County Parks over the next five years and to prioritize projects in each park. The Master Plan is also used to assist the Park Board in applying for possible grants that can be a great asset in getting improvements completed at the parks. Please take the time and complete the survey below. We appreciate any feedback we receive. We will be accepting surveys up until the end of September 2025.
