Park Master Plan Update

The Miamisburg Parks & Recreation Department is in the process of updating its Park Master Plan. This process involves assessing and determining improvements necessary and prioritizing plans to make these improvements for the entire park system, at all park locations. In addition to this, the department is also in the process of updating design plans for Riverfront Park and Sycamore Trails Park, where improvements are planned for implementation within the next few years.

The survey below will help us get an understanding of residents and park users perspectives of improvements needed, needs of park users and assist with prioritization.
