Holland residents are asked to share thoughts via an online survey through next Friday Feb. 5 to help shape a Centennial Park management plan. The plan may assess moving old city greenhouses at 481 State St to the park and considers other sites like Holland Civic Center Place Windmill Island and Van Raalte Farm. The survey asks why people visit the park favorite features and potential improvements while the park hosts a living sculpture homage to L Frank Baum.
