Creekside Park boardwalks, ponds and lighting: staff says project on schedule, opening next spring
Summary
Parks staff reported that Creekside Park’s construction — including poured abutments for a boardwalk, lighting upgrades at OC Park and pond work — is proceeding and that the public opening is not expected until spring of next year.
Parks staff told the committee that major construction elements at Creekside Park are advancing: concrete abutments for an L-shaped boardwalk have been poured and lighting at OC Park is complete and awaiting a ribbon-cutting. Staff said the ponds at Creekside will be refilled at the end of the overall project, and they do not anticipate public opening until spring of next year.
A committee member asked whether the tunnel and other adjacent work would be completed on a similar timeline. Staff said both projects are moving forward but were less certain on the tunnel schedule. Committee members expressed appreciation for the lighting design and noted the practical benefit of the extra upward illumination to help players track fly balls.
