Summary

An engineer's plan presented to the council would reconfigure angled parking and could add roughly 49 spaces at Castaic Park; members discussed chip-seal as a temporary surface, truck access, and tree impacts and suggested budgeting the project rather than rushing into construction.

An engineer presented a concept to reconfigure parking at Castaic Park to eliminate angled stalls and install a layout that would yield roughly 49 parking spaces. The design discussed chip-seal as a temporary surfacing option and included tradeoffs such as the potential need for a retaining wall and tree removal.

Councilors raised concerns about access for larger trucks and the amount of turning required for vehicles and suggested getting a full estimate before deciding to proceed. Several members recommended considering the project during the next budget cycle to avoid doing a temporary fix (chip seal) twice.
