Summary

Parks and Recreation Director Tanya Lehi and the city’s vendor, Vario, presented an update on the Rail Creek Park master plan, reviewing online survey results and two design options.
The survey identified top amenities residents want, including mountain biking and nature trails. Both plan options include permanent park amenities and structures on the park’s west side near Woodland Drive; the east-side option focuses on bicycle sports with trails and space suitable for cyclocross events.
Vario outlined next steps in the master-plan process, and staff indicated the council will see the revised plan again in early 2026. The meeting summary did not record budget figures, construction timelines, or identified funding sources for the project.
