The Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) parks department is surveying park visitors this summer to help update the 1998 master plan for Seal Bay nature park. The aim is to learn more about how visitors experience the park, what they like about the park and whether there is anything that needs improvement over the coming years.
Parks staff will be at the Bates Road parking lot on Sunday, July 19 from 9:30 to noon and on Tuesday, August 11 from 2:00 to 4:30 p.m. They will be asking for participation in completing a short, five-minute questionnaire.
“We look forward to getting public feedback on their park experience and thank everyone in advance for participating in this survey,” said Karin Albert, parks planner with the Comox Valley Regional District. “Learning what people value most about Seal Bay park will help us better protect those values into the future.”
A summary and compilation of responses will be posted on the CVRD website in the fall. Further public consultations for the Seal Bay park master plan update will also be posted on the website at www.comoxvalleyrd.ca/sealbay.
CVRD staff are also conducting park visitor surveys at Goose Spit and Nymph Falls parks.
