La Colonia Park Master Plan Workshop
The City will be holding a Community Workshop this Saturday, February 25th, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM to solicit comments on an update to the La Colonia Park Master Plan. This Workshop will be held at the La Colonia Community Center to better accommodate local residents. After a presentation from the City’s consultant team, and weather permitting, attendees will be invited to participate in a guided tour of La Colonia Park so that they can provide input on possible changes to the Master Plan and what improvements to the Park they would like to see. Attendees will also be able to view the vacant lot to the north of the Skate Park to get a better perspective of the site and to provide input on what improvements/amenities could be accommodated to increase the recreational opportunities for the community.
The draft Master Plan for was originally prepared in 2008 and, since that time, select elements of the Master Plan have been implemented such as the Veterans’ Courtyard and the Skate Park. Additionally, the Tot Lot is expected to be substantially reconstructed by the end of the 2023 calendar year. The City purchased the vacant lot immediately north of the Skate Park to provide for an expansion of the park. This parcel is not identified in the current Master Plan and the City is looking for additional comments/feedback from the community on the incorporation of this property into the Master Plan.
This family friendly event will continue rain or shine! The current forecast is predicting rain and, if so, the walking tour may be cancelled.
Please direct all questions on the project to the Engineering Department at (858) 720-2470 or pw-eng@cosb.org. Hope to see you all there.
