Design by commitee won't really work (never does) for many reasons...
firstly because if you pass you're section around, where are you going to put it in relation to the other pieces in the park, this will affect the overall flow..
there will be a limit to the amount of objects we can put in, so half way through we might run out of memory, what then? does the next person start editing other peoples stuff taking things out or rearranging stuff...
There are also design issues to contend with e.g...if there was a 15 stair rail setup with big steps, this might be only possible with 15 individual flat scaled pieces if it's to mirror a real spot, or we might have to make do with three 5 stair pieces from the terrain dropper, this again depends on the amount of memory we have left...
There is also the need for elevated sections, where do these go??
what happens if 2 or 3 people have the same kind of section setup?
What happens if you're ill or your xbox breaks?? I have 2 360's so for me that's not a problem...
The only way this will work is that everyone makes their piece as a single setup park, then these are all collected and then translated into the said park..
It would be quite easy for me to set up a park and drop the sections into it in 3DMAX which we can then have a look at and comment/discuss before we do it ingame...

Design by committee is a term referring to a style of design and its resultant output when a group of entities comes together to produce something (often the design of technological systems or standards), particularly in the presence of poor and incompetent leadership. The defining characteristics of "design by committee" are needless complexity, internal inconsistency, logical flaws, banality, and the lack of a unifying vision.
The term is especially common in technical parlance, and it legitimizes the need and general acceptance of a unique systems architect. Often, when software is designed by a committee, the original motivation, specifications and technical criteria take a backseat and poor choices may be made merely to appease the egos of several individual committee members. Such products and standards end up doing too many things or having parts that fit together poorly (because the entities who produced those parts were unaware of each other's requirements for a good fit).
