| Top | Master Plan Contents | APPENDIX F - Summary of Cadwalader Park Master Plan Survey (June 24, 1998)
A brief survey form was distributed to all participants attending the 24
June 1998 public meeting to discuss the Cadwalader Park Master Plan.
Participants were asked to fill out the form and return it before leaving
the meeting. With one exception (“How often do you come to
Cadwalader Park?”), all questions were open-ended, allowing for a full
range of responses.
A total of 70 persons signed in at the public meeting. Of these, 43
handed in completed survey forms. This represents a 61 percent
response rate, which is considered very good. A compilation of the
responses is provided on the attached pages. (Please note that the total
number of responses to each question often exceeds 43 since many
respondents gave multiple answers to several items.) A summary of the
most frequent responses is provided below.
1. Why do you come to Cadwalader Park (what activities do
you typically do there)?
The three most frequent responses indicated that people come to the Park to walk (which includes walking their dogs), to relax and have fun, and to visit Ellarslie.
2. How often do you come to Cadwalader Park?
Responses indicated that those attending the meeting were frequent
visitors to the Park. The greatest number of respondents said they came to the Park on a daily basis, with the next largest number saying they visited about once a week.
3. What features and qualities of the Park do you feel it will
be important for the Master Plan to keep?
The elements to be retained that were most often mentioned included the deer, the continuation of limited vehicular access, Ellarslie, a playground (although one that is upgraded), and the picturesque landscape with its
lovely trees.
4. What things about the Park do you feel could be different?
The responses cited most often included opening the entire park to the public (probably in response to the decision to close some of its entrances), upgrading the landscape, and improving park maintenance.
5. Are there any additional activities or events that you would
like to see take place in Cadwalader Park in the future?
Participants most frequently mentioned wanting to see more performances in the Park (concerts, theater, etc.), other community-wide events, and
improved facilities for children.
6. If you live in Trenton, what neighborhood do you live in? If
you live outside of Trenton, what community do you live
in?
Most respondents came from the West Ward (including Hiltonia and Cadwalader Heights), but many other areas of the city and its surroundings were represented.

APPENDIX G - Water Quality Test Results for West Ravine Ponds and Stream
Results of the water quality testing have confirmed high levels of
fecal coliform and fecal streptococcus bacterian in the stream that
runs through the paddock (test results attached). The acceptable
limit for fecal coliform bacteria for human contact in water is 200.
The bacteria count for this stream is over 100 times the limit
above the deer paddock, and 300 times the limit below the paddock.
The testing service has recommended that the bacteria tests
be repeated on other days to reduce the possibility that a storm
flush may have increased the level of contaminants.
The animals are clearly the major contributor to the high bacteria
count, however the level above the deer paddock is unacceptably
high as well. The State Department of Environmental Protection
will probably want the City to investigate the source of the upstream
pollution before developing any plans that give people
greater access to the streams and lakes. |
All results in mg/l (ppm) except where noted.
