The City of Biddeford is asking residents to share their feedback on recreation needs and priorities in Biddeford through a short public survey.

The survey is designed to inform future decision-making on the use of the $6 million General Obligation Bond approved by voters in November 2025 to fund improvements to the city’s recreation facilities. Biddeford voters approved the bond in a 3984 – 2221 vote.

The survey is available online at www.biddefordmaine.org/recbondsurvey . Residents are encouraged to participate and help shape the future of recreation in the community.

Community engagement on the Recreation Bond will continue throughout the spring, including planned ward meetings, a public hearing, and interactive outreach at upcoming community events, according to a press release from the city. These efforts are intended to ensure residents have multiple opportunities to participate in the decision-making process.
