The project components listed in the bond measure provide us all with a place to begin discussion. There are always other concerns and suggestions added to the list before we tackle the difficult task of establishing priorities and crafting a project. The park is composed of a series of terraces and slopes with limited connection points and relatively steep grades. The north-south access at 37th is unimproved and brings visitors into the steepest part of the park. The retaining wall is in disrepair and the courts need resurfacing.
Drainage is a problem on the ballfields and in other areas in the park.
In addition to drainage issues, overuse of the ballfields is a concern. Automatic irrigation is planned for the ballfields to improve safety and efficiency. The playground sits on the lowest level of the park. The area is not easily accessible and the equipment should be improved for play value and to bring it up to current safety standards. The restroom facilities need upgrading to meet ADA requirements, make them easier to maintain and more pleasant to use.
