Carroll Creek Refresh Survey
Posted on Mar 20th, 2026
Downtown Frederick Partnership, in collaboration with the Ausherman Family Foundation and the City of Frederick, is launching Carroll Creek Refresh — a focused initiative to enhance, repair, and thoughtfully improve one of Downtown Frederick’s most valued public spaces.
This initiative will assess current park conditions, identify priority maintenance and repair needs, and develop concept design alternatives for landscape enhancements and a future shade structure at the amphitheater. Community input is essential to ensure these improvements reflect how people use, experience, and value Carroll Creek.
Read about and take the survey online at this link: Carroll Creek Refresh Survey
Whether you visit often, attend events, live nearby, or enjoy an occasional walk, your feedback will help guide the park’s future. This survey is designed to take approximately 15 minutes to complete.
