Overland Park public input session on Santa Fe Commons set for tonight. Overland Park will host an open house format meeting at the Matt Ross Community Center this evening from 6 to 8:30 p.m. to get feedback on the future of Santa Fe Commons Park. “This is the first phase of public involvement and will help create a preliminary design for the park’s future,” said the city in a statement. “After the research phase of the project has concluded, the consultant will present potential renovation ideas for the park.
