East Chicago Parks and Recreation Department (ECPRD) needs your input! The subjects of parks, recreation, and community facilities/spaces are several important aspects concerning the quality of life in East Chicago. As such the ECPRD would like to invite you, its resident, in helping with the upcoming five year Parks and Recreation Plan. The ECPRD would like to set goals and objectives for this upcoming 2018-2022 Parks and Recreation Plan. To set and achieve those goals and objectives, the ECPRD requires public involvement. In this plan the ECPRD will recognize resource constraints and strive to encourage early public participation. The ECPRD would like to involve the public as often as it can throughout this decision making process and also identify, communicate with and listen to affected sectors of the public. We are asking for your attendance and participation to any of the following meetings: • Tuesday-March 6, 2018 6:00pm – 8:00pm at East Chicago Main Public Library located at 2401 E Columbus Dr. This will be the second public input meeting. • Wednesday – March 7th, 2018 6:00pm – 8:00pm at Robert A. Pastrick Library Branch located at 1008 W. Chicago Ave. This will be the first public input meeting. This process will help the ECPRD formulate your issues, ideas, and opinions into achievable goals and objectives to add to the five year plan. If you have any questions regarding this process or any of the meetings/focus groups please do not hesitate in calling the Parks and Recreation Department’s main office number at 391-8474 or visit www.eastchicago.com. We would like to formally thank you for helping the City of East Chicago with its five year Park and Recreation Plan and look forward to your participation.
