Grass Field Survey

Hello Nelson Families,

Due to the continued interest by various community members in discussing this topic, we’re sending out this survey to gather community sentiment on the subject. You opinions are appreciated.

Please click ONE answer for EACH of the 3 questions.

Background:

While the Nelson grass field remains open to students during school and for school activities, the VSB has restricted public access to the Nelson grass field outside of these times. This was decided following problems with damage to the fields by dogs, dog owners not cleaning up after their dogs, and unleashed dogs knocking over children (including during school hours). The field remains in use by students during school hours and for school organized activities. 

What do you think the VSB should do regarding the grass field

  • Maintain the current situation where it is open to students and school activities, but otherwise locked
  • Reopen the field outside of school hours and events and attempt to work with the community to prevent the recurrence of prior problems

How do you feel about making the grass field accessible to the public in July and August as a trial period to assess the community's ability to respectfully manage their impact on the space?

  • Support
  • Oppose

Do you think that the VSB should involve our community in decisions regarding community access to VSB facilities?

  • Yes
  • No

Thanks for answering!

-Your PAC Executive
