Parks and Recreation Commission Considers the Name of Pocahontas Park <br />Draft update – 1-27-21 <br /> <br />The Parks and Recreation Commission is currently examining the name of <br />Pocahontas Park after concerns were raised that the name may be offensive. At <br />recent meetings, the Parks and Recreation Commission learned more about who <br />Pocahontas, the person, was, heard feedback from representatives of Native <br />American groups, received feedback from residents and discussed the issue. <br />Based on initial conversations, the commission has developed an Engagement and <br />Analysis Plan based upon the Government Alliance on Race and Equity (GARE) <br />Racial Equity Toolkit and the draft HRIEC engagement best practices. <br /> <br />The Parks and Recreation Commission is planning to hear more from Native <br />American communities, Native American residents of Roseville, neighbors of <br />Pocahontas Park and other Roseville residents who are interested in the <br />conversation. <br /> <br />To learn more about the Pocahontas Park name conversation, visit <br />cityofroseville.com/parks. <br />
