Doylestown, PA - A town meeting to gather input on a new park in Doylestown Borough drew 120 residents, officials tell Patch.

The meeting, held Monday, was held to gather community feedback for a park that will be located on the nearly three-acre PennDot Maintenance Yard site on North Broad Street.

The town meeting included interactive exercises so residents could share their views on the program and elements for what is proposed to be mainly a “passive space, flexible for town activities and gatherings, and welcoming to people of all abilities.”
