# RESPONSES DATE 1 Fenced in dog park with fun doggie agility features. A splash pad fountain for kids with a kids’ 1/29/2020 7:25 PM playground.
2 A bike path that heads out State RD to Quick rd (like the one on Hoyt. Recycling and compost 1/29/2020 7:17 PM receptacles at every public trashcan.
3 already doing a fantastic job 1/29/2020 6:23 PM
4 We need to do something about the goose poop, otherwise maybe some more trees for shade. 1/29/2020 4:19 PM
5 A building with nice bathrooms and snack bar. 1/29/2020 7:57 AM
6 More bathrooms are always a positive. 1/29/2020 1:40 AM
7 We need more baseball fields. 1/28/2020 10:53 PM
8 Dingy storage 1/28/2020 8:01 PM
9 Tennis courts. There was considerable discussion about 'relocating' the 2 we had. Hasn't 1/28/2020 12:16 PM happened.
10 Tennis and pickle ball courts 1/28/2020 6:43 AM
11 Dog park, fenced area. 1/28/2020 5:10 AM
12 A fenced dog park, more downtown play structures for kids. 1/27/2020 11:10 PM
13 Another playground in a grassy area 1/27/2020 8:38 PM
14 In town bike lanes 1/27/2020 4:37 PM
15 Bathroom by deer park. 1/27/2020 7:26 AM
16 We love that you have a public beach and marina for boaters and a kayak launch. Harbor is 1/26/2020 7:32 PM one of the only towns that have a dog friendly park. So nice!
17 Good question 1/26/2020 5:32 PM
18 A dog park. You’ll be such a better use of space to get rid of the Deer Park and use it as a dog 1/26/2020 4:15 PM park. It’s cruel to keep those deer enclosed. If you want to see deer, we all have them in our backyard. But a dog park would benefit many more people.
19 Equipment rentals 1/26/2020 2:28 PM
20 Outdoor exercise equipment. In-ground trampolines, stationary cycling on benches, leg swing 1/26/2020 1:43 PM machines, etc. (Europe does this MUCH better than anywhere in America.)
21 Covered area around marina perhaps 1/26/2020 9:29 AM
22 ?? 1/25/2020 4:57 PM
23 None 1/25/2020 4:04 PM
24 Need more paddle board and kayak storage. There is a waitlist and they said it’s about 10 1/25/2020 3:26 PM years! Seems like it’s a no brainer to build more
25 More beachfront parks 1/24/2020 4:21 PM
26 A downtown playground, improved use of the greenspace near the marina (more picnic 1/24/2020 3:45 PM benches or some draw to the area), water access
27 Kayak storage racks 1/24/2020 3:21 PM
28 Tennis courts 1/24/2020 2:17 PM
29 Get rid of the stupid deer park and built a DOG PARK 1/24/2020 12:33 PM
30 As much green south of Bay st as possible, tables, more bicycle friendly (curbs, lanes,signage) 1/24/2020 10:39 AM
31 Shielded lights where the light source is not visible across a horizontal plane so there is no 1/24/2020 9:50 AM glare and the sky can be seen
9 / 20 Parks and Recreation in Harbor Springs
32 I would enjoy more sporting and exercise facilities, ie; Basket Ball courts, Pickle Ball courts, 1/24/2020 5:57 AM Exercise stations, etc.
33 Kids stuff. Water feature. Better marina facilities. Playgrounds near town. 1/24/2020 12:40 AM
34 more bathrooms 1/23/2020 1:21 PM
35 More picnic tables at the waterfront parks 1/23/2020 9:44 AM
36 Skate park improvements would be greatly appreciated. 1/23/2020 9:15 AM
37 Game courts 1/23/2020 8:39 AM
38 Vert ramp in the skate park. More music and fun at the green space. 1/23/2020 2:43 AM
39 Group tennis classes for kids and teens. Cardio tennis and drill for adults. 1/22/2020 9:42 PM
40 I think the City provides adequate amenities in the current parks it has to offer. 1/22/2020 8:56 PM
41 Recycling receptacles 1/22/2020 8:41 PM
42 Picnic tables, recycling bins 1/22/2020 7:58 PM
43 Replace the tennis courts that, mysteriously disappeared overnight 1/22/2020 5:59 PM
44 I think things are nice overall but I would like to see some changes made to the skatepark. 1/22/2020 5:27 PM Some of the ramps are deteriorating and I think the overall layout could use plenty of work to be more fun and safe. The features there really aren’t what your average skateboarder actually likes to skate in a lot of the space there. I think a redesign would be wonderful. That being said, I do enjoy it there and am happy to continue donating when I visit. The staff is friendly and great. I’d just like an update in layout by someone who actually skates.
45 Additional public restroom in downtown area. Allow food trucks downtown or beach 1/22/2020 4:57 PM concessions.
46 As a family with young children and a home in town it would be very nice to have a children's 1/22/2020 4:03 PM playground with modern playground features below the Bluff. This could help to attract other families with young children to live and play downtown. Imagine going to the farmers market and being able to have children play in a playground nearby. Perhaps a city/church partnership could be reached to bring back the playground that once occupied the corner of Main St. and Traverse St. Nice proximity to Zorn Park and Beach as well as the rest of downtown. Hey you asked. Also the city missed badly on the proposed dog park from several years ago. If you need a good laugh go back and listen to the opponents of the dog park give their reasoning at the city council meetings. Ditch the deer and build a dog park. People and dogs like to socialize. Deer not so much. A tenfold increase in usage would surely follow.
47 More benches and picnic tables 1/22/2020 3:19 PM
48 accessible restrooms tables 1/22/2020 2:39 PM
49 Beach Volleyball net 1/22/2020 2:31 PM
50 Dog park 1/22/2020 2:07 PM
51 Better Pickle Ball courts 1/22/2020 2:00 PM
52 Tennis courts easily accessible 1/22/2020 12:31 PM
53 Kids and families would love a splash pad. We travel to Charlevoix a few times a month just so 1/22/2020 12:28 PM are kids can play with the splash pads and we will eat lunch there as well. If Harbor Springs has one it would increase Foot traffic downtown.
54 I think we need a splash pad 1/22/2020 10:52 AM
55 fun play ground 1/22/2020 10:36 AM
56 Maybe a Gazebo by the water that people could rent for family gatherings like weddings or 1/22/2020 10:12 AM family reunions... More picnic tables by the water front.
57 More dog waste bags around town. 1/22/2020 9:34 AM
58 Seating 1/22/2020 9:34 AM
10 / 20 Parks and Recreation in Harbor Springs
59 Markey Township Memorial Park has a great park with a playground for dogs, a playground for 1/22/2020 8:58 AM kids & a walking track with outdoor workout equipment. That would be awesome to have something like that
60 Another disc golf course 1/22/2020 7:12 AM
61 Perhaps another large playground. Traverse City’s Civic Center (name?) playground and small 1/21/2020 10:42 PM bike pump track is amazing. Would love for the town to have a mountain bike club for kids.
62 X-c skiing, mt. Biking trails 1/21/2020 9:43 PM

67 An open warming house/bathrooms at Kiwanis. A dog park would be great as well. Updated 1/21/2020 8:56 PM playground equipment where existing equipment is.
68 Playground, bathrooms 1/21/2020 8:44 PM
69 Community garden 1/21/2020 8:40 PM
70 Good bathrooms 1/21/2020 8:39 PM
71 Please keep the Porto John's. A place for dogs to run. Nature trails would be awesome. 1/21/2020 8:31 PM
72 none 1/21/2020 8:17 PM
73 Move trash cans closer to walkways. In the summer walking thru the park to get rid of dog poop 1/21/2020 8:16 PM is uncomfortable while people are enjoying. In the winter walking thru feet of snow to get to the trash just doesn’t work.
74 More seating. Tables. 1/21/2020 8:14 PM
75 I would love to see a pavilion that could be used for family gatherings and things like that... 1/21/2020 7:51 PM
76 more playgrounds 1/21/2020 7:50 PM
77 I love using Kiwanis park for family picnics and parties and family events. The building provides 1/21/2020 6:52 PM a perfect place for indoor use on rainy days or outside use for nice days. Another building like this would be wonderful as it’s often booked when we need it in the summer/fall
78 24 hour Bathrooms Play structures 1/21/2020 5:48 PM
79 more racks for kayaks, dog free hours at Zoll Street beach. 1/21/2020 5:00 PM

96 Self guided hiking. Printed material on must see places to go and things to do for visitors. Local 1/21/2020 12:48 PM only known hot spots...
97 Sitting areas are important. Be it benches or picnic tables. 1/21/2020 12:42 PM
98 Playground, splash pad for kids 1/21/2020 12:40 PM
99 Bathrooms at city beach that stay open until at least 10pm. Stop locking them when the 1/21/2020 12:33 PM lifeguards leave. Other then that nothing noticeable needs changed.
100 Restrooms 1/21/2020 12:05 PM
101 Bathroom 1/21/2020 11:42 AM
102 Fenced dog park. 1/21/2020 11:41 AM
103 Clean up Zorn Park Beach, add more sand. Keep Zorn restrooms open longer. Lifeguard could 1/21/2020 11:34 AM do more to help keep beach clean.
104 Dog park 1/21/2020 11:26 AM
105 More waterfront area to just sit and enjoy 1/21/2020 11:21 AM
106 Better beach house at zorn beach. Try to get the duck poop off the grass by the beach. Adding 1/21/2020 11:19 AM a Splash pad at a park. More tables at zorn.
107 Updated/available Restrooms. Waterfowl control/ waterfowl waste removal. 1/21/2020 11:16 AM

109 Green space, open access to the water, playground equipment, skate park, mountain bike 1/21/2020 11:07 AM pump track
110 I would love to see the workout equipment that the community could access at the park. THere 1/21/2020 11:07 AM are many playground equipment companies that have this equipment for community parks and I think it is a great idea for our community.
111 A splash pad and additional play structures would be wonderful. 1/21/2020 10:42 AM
112 Ice skating, is it ever open? 1/21/2020 10:26 AM
113 The playground by baseball diamonds is in dire need of safety improve Improvements and 1/21/2020 10:17 AM updated playground equipment. Recommend playground for waterfront parks as the beach area is too limited.
114 A pavilion at a park would be wonderful - the question becomes which one. 1/21/2020 10:16 AM
115 a place for people to launch paddle boards, kayaks, etc... other than the Zorn Beach. Maybe 1/21/2020 10:16 AM somewhere closer to the public beach
116 More benches/tables 1/21/2020 10:11 AM
117 Bring back the tennis courts!!!! 1/21/2020 10:10 AM
118 Pickle ball and out door pavillion better marketing of what we currently have. Also use the 1/21/2020 10:09 AM space offer some classes or allow the space to be utilized for classes.
119 Shaded areas. Sitting areas, designed not just picnic tables. Clean and updated bathrooms. 1/21/2020 10:09 AM
120 I think they do a good job. 1/21/2020 10:08 AM

124 N/A 1/21/2020 9:59 AM
125 Warming house(Kiwanis) 1/21/2020 9:50 AM
126 More pet disposal stations above the bluff would be nice! Walking in the spring especially is 1/21/2020 9:50 AM absolutely disgusting the amount of dog poop on the sidewalks, streets, grassy areas, if we had more disposal options I think would help clean it up tremendously!
127 need a dog park so people stop running their dogs on the baseball and soccer fields. People 1/21/2020 9:48 AM need a fenced in area for this
128 More benches & picnic tables would be nice. A spot for an outdoor concert would be great. 1/21/2020 9:44 AM
129 More yoga classes offered, bike tools/stands, grills 1/21/2020 9:43 AM
130 Minimal. Stick with less is more theory. Benches, picnic tables, nothing more. 1/21/2020 9:43 AM
131 band shell type cover 1/21/2020 9:42 AM
132 Restrooms at Shay Park!!! Also more seating areas for parents, like on all sides of Shay park. 1/21/2020 9:41 AM
133 City movies in the park, beach volleyball, off leash dog park, beach grooming, kayak entrance 1/21/2020 9:41 AM to water from Zoll beach
134 None 1/21/2020 9:40 AM
135 A better playground walking distance to town. The one at the beach is ok but doesn’t 1/21/2020 9:39 AM accommodate younger toddlers. Also designated baby safe grass would be amazing. No body wants their kid rolling in dog poop. There was talk of a water play area for kids near the waterfront at one time which would also appeal to summer visitors that don’t have time for the beach.
136 Outside drinking fountains 1/21/2020 9:37 AM
