Parks, Open Space, Trails, and Facilities Naming/Renaming Policy

Township Parks Naming Policy

This policy outlines a systematic and consistent procedure for processing and reviewing requests for the naming or renaming of Springfield Township parks, open space, trails, and facilities. The Parks and Recreation Department will follow this policy while processing requests to name or rename parks, open space, trails and facilities. 

The goal of this policy is to:

1. Ensure that Township parks, open space, trails and facilities are easily identified and located.
2. Ensure that names appointed to parks, open space, trails, and facilities are consistent with the values of Springfield Township founded on community history, geography, environmental, civic, and services specific to the Springfield Township community.
3. Provide criteria for the process of naming parks, park areas or park facilities.
4. Provide opportunities for public input. 

The policy, in full, can be read below.
