Envisioning Roanoke Pocket Park

Your Voice Matters! A community poll is underway to determine the future site for a pocket park along Roanoke Ave in Berwyn. Residents are invited to cast their votes to select the ideal location for the new green space. Due to the nature of the location, environmentally sensitive options are being considered. Submit your opinion by March 23 at www.collegeparkmd.gov/roanokepark.

Adult Social Sports Club Interest Survey

The City is trying to gauge resident interest in an adults social sports league!

The Mayor and Council included $30,000 in the FY24 budget in anticipation of the City supporting an adult social sports league, including options for older adults, in the City of College Park. Moving forward with such a program in College Park would require developing a program design and assessing the overall impact for College Park residents. Prior to developing a program proposal, the City would like to receive resident feedback on the potential program.

Residents can request a paper copy of the survey at the City's Department of Youth, Family, and Senior Services (4912 Nantucket Road). Questions? Call 240-487-3550.
