Goodman Park Survey Is Live — Here’s the Exact Script to Submit

(So Our Input Stays Consistent)


The City of Fort Worth has published a Goodman Park survey. If you support modest, safety-first amenities (walking path, lighting, fitness, maintenance), take 60 seconds and submit the survey using the copy/paste script below so Lake Como’s feedback is clear, consistent, and hard to misread.


Copy/Paste Response Script (Use This Exactly)

(Tip: paste this into your Notes app first, then copy into the form.)

Name: YOURNAMEYOUR

Address: YOURADDRESS or “LakeComo,FortWorth


Do you support adding amenities to Goodman Park? YES


Reasoning / Needs / Ideas:

Yes — Goodman Park has been dormant for decades, and basic, safety-first improvements would make it usable again for everyday residents. I support modest, high-impact amenities that keep clear sightlines and improve safety, including:

  • A walking loop/path (accessible for seniors, strollers, and daily exercise)

  • Outdoor fitness equipment in an open, visible area

  • Lighting for safety and visibility (no dark corners)

  • Trash cans + regular maintenance, and simple signage (hours/rules)

  • If feasible: benches and a small shaded rest spot (kept minimal and open)


Just as important: public engagement must be consistent and accessible to all residents. Stakeholders can share opinions, but the City’s process should not be routed through a single group as if it speaks for “the community.” Lake Como has multiple stakeholders — everyone deserves a seat at the table and a clear, reliable way to participate.

Short Text Version (for quick sending)

YES. Goodman Park needs basic, safety-first amenities: walking path/loop, outdoor fitness equipment, lighting, trash cans/maintenance, and a couple benches (kept open with clear sightlines). Also: engagement must be consistent and accessible — Lake Como has multiple stakeholders and no single group speaks for everyone. Everyone deserves a seat at the table.


Why This Matters

(No Park Drama — Just Process + Progress)

Goodman Park has been dormant for decades. When the City finally asks for public input, our job is to make sure the record reflects what residents actually need: simple, visible, safety-first upgrades that bring everyday use back to the park.

This also matters because Lake Como does not have a single voice. Many people care about this neighborhood, and no one group gets to control who participates or what gets prioritized. Public process has to be City-directed, reliable, and open to everyone — especially when turnout is already hard to build.


So we’re doing what revitalization professionals do:

✅ show up in writing,

✅ keep the message consistent,

✅ and make it easy for neighbors to participate.


If you support bringing Goodman Park back to life, take one minute and submit the survey today — then text the short script to 3 people.
