The project, designed by Harley Ellis Devereaux of Southfield, Mich., is intended to serve as a long-term guide of how to best upgrade Hood, Riverside and Orleans parks in a way that blends them with the downtown and Fort Meigs areas.
Tuesday's meeting was informational rather than a debate on the merits or funding for the project. Some residents asked questions during a 15-minute segment, while many more submitted them on blue slips of paper.
Planning and Zoning Administrator Brody Walters said all questions would be addressed as soon as possible, with responses to be posted on the city's website: www.ci.perrysburg.oh.us.
The park proposal cost about $50,000, said Mayor Nelson Evans. It has roots dating back to 2005 when the city's comprehensive plan was being developed.
It can be considered piece-by-piece and has elements intended to target many specific grant sources for funding, said Mark Hieber, of Harley Ellis Devereaux. Also speaking during the presentation was architect Kate MacPherson.
