Executive Summary ............................................... 2 II. Methodology .......................................................... 2 III. Demographics ....................................................... 3 IV. Survey Results ........................................................ 5 V. Conclusion ............................................................ 19 Executive Summary Champaign-area residents were asked to participate in an anonymous survey to help the District’s marketing department evaluate a number of public perception and marketing areas. The survey included questions about commonly associated parks, facilities, events, and programs as well as questions about effective marketing avenues, the website, and online registration as well as the public’s perception of the District as a whole. A total of 249 complete and valid survey responses were received. The survey was promoted on Facebook and Twitter as well as by staff and through listservs from April 4th through May 1st, 2014. The survey data provides clear goals, focus areas, and suggestions for staff although the small sample size may limit the survey’s overall representativeness. Staff should consider the results in context and look for overall themes as the sample size was not large enough to provide detailed representative data. Methodology The survey questions were developed with input from marketing professionals, marketing staff, Directors, and general staff with a known interest in either marketing or survey research. Several drafts of the survey were sent to this group who were asked to respond to the questions and make suggestions for possible changes, additions, or deletions. The final survey form was created on Survey Monkey and the link was distributed via email, social media, and staff contact lists.

  • Walking for Life: Addressing Health in Champaign's
    Tyler Zwagerman UIUC DURP 2014 Masters Candidate Walking for Life: Addressing Health in Champaign’s Pedestrian Plan P a g e | 2 Acknowledgements May, 2014 I undertook this project for practical reasons, hoping to take advantage of good timing, study a topic that matched my interests, and contribute to a planning process aimed to improve the quality of life in Champaign, Illinois. A traumatic health situation, the 2014 polar vortex, and series of interviews with concerned community health professionals made me realize that working for complete, accessible, and well-maintained pedestrian systems is more than a practicality. High quality pedestrian networks are essential elements for life in a safe and healthy community. I would like to extend a special thanks to the Champaign-Urbana professionals who shared their time and perspectives, the City of Champaign Planning and Development Department who gave me the opportunity to become involved with their Pedestrian Plan process, my colleagues and friends in the Department of Urban and Regional Planning whose conversations and feedback were invaluable to this work, and to my wife, Jenny who literally helped me get back on my feet this semester. Without your contributions and support, this project would not have been possible. Best wishes whichever path(s) you take, Tyler Zwagerman P a g e | 3 Table of Contents I.

  • 2019-2029 Comprehensive Plan [This Page Is Intentionally Left Blank.] February 27, 2019
    2019-2029 Comprehensive Plan [This page is intentionally left blank.] February 27, 2019 Dear Champaign Park District Residents, Our parks and recreation system is a reflection of the community’s long held values and support for park land, green space, fitness and wellness. Today’s sys- tem of urban parks, trails, recreation facilities and pro- grams is a major contributor to Champaign’s nationally acclaimed high quality of life and the result of the com- munity support and investment. For over 100 years, the Park District has promoted the community’s access to nature, health, and wellness in the areas of parks and recreation. It is in this tradition that we are proud to submit the Park District’s Comprehensive Plan. This plan presents the framework and policy that will assist and guide the Park District in the stewardship of our parks, recreation facilities and programs. The Com- prehensive Plan includes broad policies and initiatives that will help shape the services that the Park District will provide to the community over the next ten (10) years. We invite the reader to delve into the details of the plan to see first-hand how the outlined strategies blend the analysis of parks and facilities with the community’s current and future needs, and the order in which the Park District intends to undertake them. This plan is a strategy moving forward. We are not committing to all ideas detailed in the Comprehensive Plan, but instead will explore all options and look to the community prior to committing to implement any project.

    APPENDIX 7 Five Year Action Plan CHAMPAIGN PARK DISTRICT TRAILS MASTER PLAN Champaign Park District Trails Master Plan 5 Year Action Plan Completed by Trails Cross Department Team March 2017 PROCESS This Champaign Park District Trails Master Plan was created in partnership with the Regional Planning Commission and made recommendations for a proposed trail system for the Champaign Park District and its partners to implement in Champaign. The recommendations were based upon the previous steps of the planning process, which include public outreach activities and research and analysis of the Champaign parks and trails. All possible alternatives for the trail system were presented throughout these processes and have gone through consultation and updating. The recommendations presented were are aligned with the overall goals and objectives of this plan. Besides public consultation, these results are a collaboration between CUUATS staff and Champaign Park District staff, as well as direction from the Champaign Park District Trails Master Plan (CPD TMP) steering committee. As part of the process in developing the new 2016-2019 Champaign Park District Strategic Plan, the Park District staff created Cross Department Teams to work on the various goals within the 2016-2019 Strategic Plan.

  • Chapter 5. Multimodal Integration and Airport Access
    Chapter 5. Multimodal Integration and Airport Access 5.1. Introduction The overall function of an airport closely relates to other forms of transportation, enabling the safe and efficient movement of people and goods from one location to another. Most airport users, however, don’t originate or terminate their movements at an airport – there are additional transportation modes that need to be utilized to reach their intended destination. For an airport to be effective for users, airports must provide the means for passengers and goods to be transported between the airport and destination. As a result, the Illinois aviation system must incorporate the statewide multimodal landscape into its scope to provide a more comprehensive picture of the overarching transportation system. This inclusion of multimodal opportunities is also outlined within AC 150/5070-7, Change 1, The Airport System Planning Process, which highlights the need to evaluate aviation within the context of multimodal planning. Including an analysis of multimodal integration acknowledges that aviation and airport systems do not exist in their own environment and are impacted by external transportation factors. This chapter details the multimodal transportation system in Illinois as well as how that system influences the state’s aviation system. This chapter includes the following sections: • Roadway Connectivity • Multimodal Integration • Illinois Freight Network • Areas of Transportation Concern Specific to Airports • Long-Range Planning and Transportation Improvements • Summary At the time of this chapter, the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically transformed the global economy and created financial uncertainty throughout all levels of business. The global travel restrictions and quarantine mandates enacted by governments have significantly depressed nearly all air travel activity.
