City Park Renovation
Project Vision
The planned renovations will revitalize the park with fully restored tennis and basketball courts, upgraded parking lots, and enhanced sidewalks. A brand-new children's play area featuring modern playground equipment and a splash pad will provide hours of fun for families. New communal spaces are also being introduced, including pavilions with newly constructed restrooms. Additionally, improved site access will ensure ADA accessibility throughout the park, making it more inclusive and enjoyable for everyone.
