And, with a reputation as a nationally recognized parks system, care and attention to detail are also part of the successful recipe. As the “new” Hanby Park starts to move forward, projects and partnerships characteristic of Westerville has laid a strong foundation.

Volunteers from the Westerville Sunrise Rotary Club helped identified this opportunity, donating their time and even traveling to Mexico to help re-home the old equipment. Concepts for Hanby Park were shared with the community City throughout late summer. It will soon be rebuilt with new equipment and outdoor attractions unique not only in the neighborhood but in the community park system as a whole. Water elements and new-generation play equipment and surfaces are being explored for the area. After hosting a series of public open houses for residents to view concepts, Parks & Recreation staff says the ideas are generating excitement. “We love watching residents light up when they see a concept that captures their imagination,” said Randy Auler, Westerville Parks & Recreation Director. “Hanby Park is going to be a special neighborhood park with a strong, inviting community vibe. We’re looking forward to introducing new features that will further Westerville’s reputation as a ‘City within a Park.’”
2016 ONLINE RESIDENT SURVEY Residents of the City of Westerville are invited to participate in an Online Resident Survey. Survey findings are used by the City to prepare and evaluate opportunities in order to best meet the community needs and ensure a high level of service in alignment with our local resources and programs. Postcards mailed to residents earlier this November have a unique passcode to use when completing the survey. If a passcode is needed or you would like additional information on how the survey results will be used, please call Community Affairs at (614) 901-6400.
