Agenda Item Summary:
Parks and Recreation is requesting authorization to seek proposals for professional design services for Project No. PR23-6193 Knollwood Park Redevelopment. As presented during the 2021 Vision Fund application cycle, Knollwood Drainage Area is a blighted and underutilized area within the parks system. The neighborhood deserves a place to spend quality time outdoors. Since the main demographic of park users will be an underserved community, representing primarily low- and moderate-income households, the Community Investment Committee has recommended allocating CDBG funding for the design and engineering of this project. Staff proposes to hire a Consultant to design and submit construction documents to redevelop this area into a safe, attractive City park and natural area.
