space and are fully operating in this location at this time. We
look forward to getting back into our 6 West location once
renovations there are complete!

Cover Letter, June 10, 2026
Dear Members of the Jamestown Town Council,
On behalf of the Fort Getty Ad Hoc Committee, I'm pleased to submit the attached Ad Hoc Committee
report to the Town Council.
When the Council established this committee in summer 2025, it charged us with a seemingly
straightforward task: to assess existing conditions at Fort Getty and develop recommendations for its
future use, management and improvement. What followed was ten months of serious and thorough
work: seventeen meetings, two community surveys, site visits, financial analysis, benchmarking against
comparable facilities, and many hours of deliberation among five committee members who came to the
table with different perspectives and a shared commitment to fulfilling the charge with transparency and
integrity.
As with every prior review of Fort Getty, many points along the way surfaced polarizing views among
Jamestown residents – and among Ad Hoc Committee members – particularly around the campground.
To navigate this, we listened: to 1,069 resident survey respondents, to 57 non-resident park users, to
Town staff, to stakeholders, and to one another.
The recommendations in this report, which was supported by the full Ad Hoc Committee, are grounded
in what we heard Jamestown residents and park patrons told us they value: a park that is natural,
accessible, well-maintained and welcoming to …
