Survey and community meeting announced for the City of Hartford

The City of Hartford has an opportunity to apply for grant funding through the SPARK grant program to make improvements to Ely Park. SPARK grants are available to local communities to create, renovate and redevelop public recreation opportunities for residents and visitors – especially those communities whose economies and health were hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. The City of Hartford has been identified as one of those communities.

To best utilize the SPARK Grant funds, a survey has been prepared so residents and visitors of the city can contribute their ideas and thoughts about the plans for the grant funds. Please access the survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FQ39CYR.

If anyone would like to fill out a paper version of the survey, they are available during regular business hours at City Hall.

Additionally, to ensure that all interested individuals have the opportunity to share ideas, there will be a Public Input Open House on Thursday, Jan. 11, 2024. The open house will be held at the Hartford Public Library from 5-7 p.m. Food will be provided at the meeting.

The City of Hartford requests and invites the public’s input on the use of these grant funds. Please complete the survey and attend the open house if able. They want to hear from their community!
