Copley Community Park
Definitions of Geographic Areas
The Copley Community Park is located in the central part of the Township. The area is bound by Copley Road to the north and surrounded by residential neighborhoods and the Industrial Corridor.
Current Land Use and Zoning
The Copley Community Park is a Conditional Use in the Residential-Medium Density (R-MD) District and Industrial (I) District.
Copley Community Park is an 80-acre facility located at 3232 Copley Road about 3/4 mile east of Copley Circle. It was made possible with the donation of land from Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing (3M) to Copley Township and a grant from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources natureWORKS program. The park opened in 2003 and has become a favorite spot for visitors to enjoy the outdoors. It is open every day of the year from 7am to dusk. There are three rentable pavilions that accommodate 80 people each, two baseball/softball fields, four soccer fields, two playground areas, a sled-riding hill, and an ice skating pond. There is over a mile of paved walking trails that wind through the grounds and a small length of unpaved path that leads through the woods. The trails border wetland areas where visitors can see Mother Nature at work with all kinds of different flora and fauna and the retention pond is home to different aquatic animals and plants (no swimming or fishing please).
NEIGHBORHOOD AMBASSADORS
Neighborhood Ambassadors are essential to the success of any strong community.
Neighborhood Ambassadors serve as a local point-person for information in your part of the Township. Ambassadors are charged with promoting improvements, identifying problems, and informing neighbors about beneficial services and programs.
Ambassadors may volunteer just a little bit of free time, or choose to devote significant efforts toward neighborhood projects that connect neighbors. Organize a block party or help build community by chatting over the fence.
Neighborhood Ambassadors receive ongoing support and guidance from the Township Administration and the Department of Community and Economic Development.
By building a team of neighborhood-level leaders, the cumulative impact of this positive force will expand. Ultimately, the neighbors who volunteer as Ambassadors lay the groundwork for lasting excellence and long-term community pride.
