Quality of Life Bonds transform area hit by Storm 2006

Long-vacant lots to be replaced with park featuring playground, basketball court

Seven years after homes on Fiesta Drive sustained severe damage from historic flooding, work will begin soon to construct a pocket park in their place thanks to the Quality of Life Bonds approved by voters in November 2012.

The park will be constructed on 0.2 acres at 6200 Fiesta Drive.

This project consists of removing existing concrete slabs, sidewalks, and driveways. Crews will then construct or install the following park amenities: a new concrete basketball court, new playground equipment, colored concrete sidewalks, new rock walls with wrought iron fencing, landscape, irrigation, and new lighting.

Construction is expected to begin in early September and take 170 days.
