Golden Creek Park Planning Committee

At its heart, Golden Creek Park is about the people it serves. Input from the community will be key! Surveys (both in-person and online) and public meetings will be used to learn the outcomes our community would like to receive. Our Committee is in the initial planning stages for Golden Creek Park and we are looking forward to providing many opportunities for public input and engagement in the coming months.

The Planning Committee meets every 3rd Tuesday of each month at Simpsonville City Hall at 7 pm. Please feel free to come to any of our meetings to share your thoughts and ideas.
