The City's Parks & Recreation Department is currently working on several important park projects. 

As part of Parks & Recreation's Blueprint for the Future park projects support park activation and building community through site planning and provision of community gathering space and associated infrastructure; supporting and facilitating community events; incorporation of public art and cultural expression; and dynamic programming to address multigenerational and multi-ability needs of our community.
