New Woodmere Park opens; Anne McKibben slated for multi‑year refurbishment
Summary
Parks staff announced a newly opened Woodmere Park with an AstroTurf finish and said Anne McKibben Park received approval for a three‑year refurbishment plan.
During the episode, staff highlighted recent capital work: the department said Woodmere Park opened this week and uses an AstroTurf finish instead of traditional poured‑in‑place surfaces. Jose Ortiz described the new park as “very different than what we have” and noted its proximity to Sanford Avenue and Cattle Ridge.
Ortiz also said the department secured approval for a multi‑year refurbishment of Anne McKibben Park, with work scheduled across the next three years. Coleman added that Spirit Grove Park has parts ordered and contractor activity underway as part of ongoing neighborhood improvements.
The hosts encouraged residents to visit new and renovated parks and to follow the city’s social media for opening‑day and rental information.
