Memorial Park Master Plan
In late 2018, Village Council approved moving forward with a Master Plan for Memorial Park beginning in the 2019 fiscal year. In 2019, there was a public forum as well as a public survey to garner suggestions on what the community would like to see in Memorial Park. The Village of Swanton engaged Poggemeyer Design Group to assist in formulating a template for a Master Plan. If you have any questions related to the Master Plan please reach out to the Village Administrator: admin@villageofswantonohio.us and/or 419.826.9515.
