Tustin council approves plans and advertisement for Heidemann School Park
Summary
The Tustin City Council unanimously approved plans and authorized advertising for bids to build Heidemann School Park, with councilmembers praising the project as a needed neighborhood resource and thanking staff and USD for grant assistance.
The Tustin City Council voted unanimously to approve plans and specifications and to authorize advertisement for bids for Heidemann School Park.
Councilmember John Nielsen, who moved the item, said the Southwest area "needs parks desperately" and called the proposed project a "great resource" for surrounding neighborhoods. He said the city partnered with the local school district and pursued grant funding to help cover costs.
Councilmember Fink echoed that sentiment and urged the city to use school open space as a model for future partnerships that would allow access to schoolyards during off hours. The council clerk conducted a roll call and the motion passed 5–0.
The council did not amend the item during discussion. Staff will proceed with the plans and the advertisement for bids as authorized by the motion.
The vote concluded the consent-item discussion on the park; no additional public testimony was recorded on the item.
