Help Shape Bergenfield’s Future: Public Engagement Survey for Open Space and Recreation Funding

Help Shape Bergenfield’s Future: Public Engagement Survey for Open Space and Recreation Funding

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) is asking Bergenfield residents to share their opinions and priorities through a Public Engagement Survey. Your input will help determine how public funds for open space and recreation projects are allocated in our community.

Why Your Voice Matters

Public engagement is at the heart of the funding process for open space and recreation projects. The NJDEP believes that community involvement is essential to ensuring that public funds are invested in ways that best reflect the needs and desires of the people they are intended to serve. This is why your feedback is so important.

By participating in the survey, you will have a direct role in shaping the future of Bergenfield’s parks, recreational facilities, and open spaces. The survey helps the community and project applicants understand what you, the residents, value most in terms of green spaces and recreational opportunities. This ensures that investments are aligned with the priorities of those who live here.

The Importance of Public Input

Bergenfield, like many communities, has unique needs and priorities when it comes to open space and recreation. Whether it’s creating more walking trails, improving park facilities, or ensuring access to nature for all ages, your ideas and concerns are critical in making sure that projects meet these needs.

The NJDEP and the Green Acres Program emphasize that meaningful public participation leads to better, more effective projects. The investments made through these programs should serve the community and reflect the collective vision of the residents. This is why your feedback, as a Bergenfield resident, plays a vital role in guiding future projects.

How You Can Participate

We encourage you to take a few minutes to complete the Public Engagement Survey. Your responses will provide valuable insights into what types of projects are most important to you and your neighbors. Whether it's improving existing parks, creating new recreational spaces, or ensuring equitable access to outdoor areas, your input will help guide how funds are distributed in Bergenfield.

As a Bergenfield resident, your input is critical in shaping the future of our community’s open spaces and recreational areas. Take a few moments to fill out the survey and make sure your priorities are heard. Together, we can create a greener, more connected Bergenfield for everyone.
