SCAN LAND | CONTINUED
COMMUNITY SURVEY RESULTS ARE IN!
SCAN Land is a project to redesign SCAN's 13 acres into a public park that engages all surrounding communities through the Participatory Design process, and ultimately use once constructed. Although there is no lack of outdoor space in the Albemarle, Buckingham, or Fluvanna counties, there is a lack of public outdoor space that welcomes diverse populations. Building on the work we have done thus far on the 13 acre property on Hardware Street donated to SCAN in 2005, SCAN wants to create that public landscape to allow for anyone to learn about the environment, the arts, and the intersection in between.
We kicked off the Pre-Design Phase of this project in the Spring with a survey to learn about our community and its interactions with the outdoors. We received over 200 responses, and we want to share the results with you below! Please feel to email us with any additional feedback you may have after reviewing the results.
