10. Draft Plan Feedback
10
• Family-friendly elements and activities should be prioritized, especially supporting
splash park.
• Observations that there are a lot of different elements in the park plan.
• Concern about effect on Waterside Condos (due to new activities or driveway/
parking).
• Varied opinions on the inclusion of dunes as part of walking path, potentially
needing additional information/clarity of design.
• CAG generally agrees with removing/relocating RV Park and ballfields, if other
locations can be found. Public opinion varies.
• Consensus that the waterfront is a resource and asset.

facility useful for the community, OK to
show removal of formal ballfields and/or

assumption that formal ballfields will find
a new home)

ERIN – Here’s how the CAG process will operate
- The CAG will meet 5 times between now and May, with two meetings being open house meetings for the public to provide feedback
The Council will receive monthly reports at standing council meetings and will provide feedback to inform to preferred plan, roughly in February and April
The Council will adopt the Plan in May
Just a brief recap of major themes from feedback we received from the April 29 Open House and subsequent Online Open House
These include CAG and public comments
Themes
Family-friendly elements and activities, including splash park, should be prioritized
Concerned about effect on Waterside Condos from proposed new road and parking on east side of park
Questions about the dunes along the walkway
Support for open grassy spaces
Varied opinions on RV park and baseball field removal
Consensus that the waterfront is a resource and asset to Oak Harbor
Long-term events could be moved to Windjammer Park and utilize event plaza
Based on the feedback received from the CAG and community through the open house and online open house, the design team has prepared an updated preferred concept
The team has focused on updating the preferred concept to address:

Final CAG Meeting
In the charter we discussed the possibility of providing a recommendation to City Council that they adopt the WPIP – do you feel that as a group, this recommendation can be made (contingent upon feedback received during meeting and discussion).
Are there any outstanding questions for the design team?
CAG Debrief
What do you feel was successful about the CAG process?
What challenges / opportunities for improvement do you see?
Would you participate in a CAG in the future?
Any final feedback for the facilitation / design team?
