  • Responsive Government: Public input is on the forefront of planning and policymaking for the City of Cape Girardeau Municipal Government. In 2012, the public responded to a citizen and business survey and multiple recreation planning projects including the Capaha Park planning project. Through that process, many residents told us stories about family trips to the park featuring Dinky the train pictured above. [PHOTO CREDIT: STEINHOFF]
