Parks is beginning planning for this Opportunity Fund project. The Public Process will begin this winter.

Project Description

The aim of this project is to use existing public land to create a new park in the heart of Fremont. The park would be a model of a sustainable park space and would provide an important pedestrian link to other areas of Fremont, particularly bus stops and the developing neighborhood business district in northern Fremont. Proposed sustainable design features include the use of recycled materials and native plants, minimal earth movement, tree retention, stormwater management, solar panels and wind turbines.

This project was selected for the first round of Parks and Green Spaces Levy Opportunity Funding. The application received in this community-initiated process is a preliminary concept and the final design may be constrained by the project budget. All projects will go through Park’s public involvement procedure which includes public meetings and community input. They will also go through an internal Parks process to ensure the most effective implementation.
