Bismarck Parks and Rec Survey
A message from Bismarck Parks and Recreation:
Dear Bismarck Residents,
The Bismarck Parks and Recreation District (BPRD) has a long history of providing a wide variety of high-quality recreational opportunities for our residents. Our success is the result of strong partnerships and collaboration with local businesses, non-profit organizations, and various governmental agencies. Together we are committed to ensuring that Bismarck remains a great place to live, work, and play!
Providing premier programs and services require facilities that can accommodate the growing and ever-changing needs of our community. A sales tax increase measure to build an indoor recreation complex failed to win voters’ support in June of 2020. The Bismarck Parks and Recreation District Board of Park Commissioners acknowledge and respect the voters’ decision. However, the identified needs for additional programs and space are not going away, and we are now committed to refining a plan that better reflects the priorities of our taxpayers.
This survey is our attempt to hear the “voice” of every resident as we develop plans that will serve our community for years to come. Please take 5 to 10 minutes to answer this survey!
A paper version of the survey will be inside the Bismarck Parks and Recreation District’s spring/summer Activity Guide. Bismarck Parks and Rec has surveys available through the Spring/Summer Activity Guide or at their office. Residents can either complete the paper survey or log on to the website listed on the survey and take the survey online. If a household would like a second survey or code for another adult in the household, please contact Parks and Rec.
To collect this feedback, we are working with Community Perceptions, a branch of School Perceptions and an independent firm with expertise in conducting community surveys. All survey data is returned to Community Perceptions to ensure respondent anonymity.
Final survey results will be reported at a Board of Park Commissioners’ meeting and will also be available on the Bismarck Parks and Recreation District’s website at www.bisparks.org.
Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey.
Sincerely,
|
