Vacaville’s Parks and Recreation staff are seeking input from the community on what kinds of amenities they would like to see at Trower Park.

The feedback will be gathered through a survey as well as a virtual meeting Wednesday.

Located at the end of Holly Lane near the Vacaville Neighborho­od Boys & Girls Club’s Trower Center, Trower Park has a large open field, playground­s, basketball courts and walking trails, but the city is looking at ways to provide new amenities and is calling upon the community to make their suggestion­s.

A survey is available at SurveyMonk­ey.com and asks participan­ts to list their top 3 desired features from a list of proposed items. These include a dog park, tot playground, additional playground equipment, an interactiv­e water feature, a covered group picnic area, volleyball courts, pickleball courts; a flat turf area for sports like soccer, football or rugby; and more. The survey also outlines potential zones for the park and asks users to pick their preferred area for each amenity.

The English survey can be accessed at Surveymonk­ey. com/r/LR2RSQR. A survey for Spanish speakers can be accessed at Surveymonk­ey. com/r/JN8YDYY.

For those who would prefer to be more involved in the process, the city will be hosting a design exercise on Zoom. Staff will also be present to answer questions.

The meeting will be held at 6 p.m. Wednesday over Zoom. To RSVP, go to Surveymonk­ey.com/r/ WDXFBGH for English speakers or Surveymonk­ey.com/r/ FW5S3JP for Spanish speakers

For those unable to participat­e in the survey or the meeting, they may reach out to staff by calling 469-4000 or emailing Recweb@cityofvaca­ville.com.
