Press release from Johnson City Parks & Recreation: December 10, 2021 The Johnson City Parks and Recreation Department is making available a public survey to help plan for the future of Keefauver Farm, a 53-acre property located at 632 Hales Chapel Road. The online survey is available through Jan. 15. Hard copies will be available at Carver Recreation Center, Langston Centre, Memorial Park Community Center and Winged Deer Park. The survey is an important part of the Keefauver Farm Master Plan process. The data collected will assist in identifying citizen preferences and will help guide future improvements to the property. The Johnson City Board of Commissioners and the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board recently held a visioning meeting and hosted a public input meeting. "We are excited to continue the Keefauver Farm Master Plan process," said Parks and Recreation Director James Ellis. "Parks are essential fixtures to our citizens, are important to our health and play a vital role within our community. This survey will help us understand what our community values and the types of amenities they would like to see on this property." Survey results will be presented to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board on Jan. 27. The development of park concepts will be completed by Feb. 15 and a presentation to the Board of Commissioners is anticipated March 3.
