Committee of the whole names new 680 East Chavez Avenue site 'Unity Park'; construction on track for summer 2026
The Rapid Recap host said the committee of the whole officially named the new park at 680 East Chavez Avenue 'Unity Park' after a two-phase community engagement process that included surveys, events and outreach in English, Spanish and Swahili.

The recap described planned amenities including a rentable shelter space, play areas and a hammock grove. The host said construction is on track for summer 2026 but did not provide a detailed schedule, contract award information, or a construction timeline beyond that general target.

The host presented the park-naming as the conclusion of a community engagement process; the recap did not quote individual community members or provide a record of alternative names or vote tallies related to the naming decision.
