Additional information about the renovation projects listed on this page can be found in the Parks & Recreation Master Plan. The plan was adopted in 2019 and will provide guidance for parks, recreation facilities and programs meeting community needs through 2035. The plan is a result of an 18 month process that included community engagement of community members sharing their ideas. Check back often for updates on these Master Plan projects.

New Riverfront Park

Riverfront park property planning and community involvement in coordination with the Core Opportunity & Reinvestment Area (CORA) is in process. The Riverfront Park collaboration with CORA will incorporate multi-modal connectivity, and strengthen links to central downtown south of the parkland.

Work has already begun to prepare the future parkland! The existing houses on the park property have been removed, and work is underway to remove invasive species. The owners representative Request for Proposals (RFP) have closed and park staff is finalizing scope with the selected consultant.
