Baileywick Park Community Preference Survey

Baileywick Park Community Preference Survey

The City of Raleigh Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Department invites you to share your thoughts and ideas during the Baileywick Park planning process. Do you have an idea that could make Baileywick Park, an existing 50-acre park located in North Raleigh, a unique destination in Raleigh? Tell us about it! This could be a great feature from a park you’ve visited in another city, or something you’ve always wanted to see but can’t find at other parks in our area.

Your thoughts regarding the plan for Baileywick Park are very important to our effort to ensure the long-range vision for the park, amenities and facilities meet the needs of the community. This survey is an opportunity for you to provide general thoughts regarding the park and its facilities. The input received will be used in future public meeting discussions and will help form the foundation for our planning process.
