Inspired by the Beaverdam Creek Wetland, Kyle Drive Park will connect visitors to nature and serve as an inclusive community hub, providing nature-based recreation, multi-generational activities, and enhancement of the natural environment.

Building on the insights gained from the previous community engagement phases, the design team has synthesized all feedback to craft a preliminary vision of the park's future. The Draft Concept Plan will reflect the priorities, preferences, and aspirations voiced by the community, weaving together the strengths of the previous Alternative Concepts. Following this phase, we will carefully refine and integrate the community's input to create a final, well-rounded Concept Plan that balances and aligns with the needs and desires expressed by the community.

Current Project Status

The Kyle Drive Park project is now in the Master Plan phase. There will be many more touchpoints with the community throughout the coming year, and we hope to hear from you! Everyone who will be impacted by this project has a right to participate, and we welcome all to stay involved throughout the planning process.

 

Previous Project Milestones

The Parks, Recreation and Greenway Advisory Board approved the Kyle Drive Park Situation Assessment on October 19, 2023. A Situation Assessment is an analysis of the local context around a project, to help staff determine the best way to effectively engage the community in a collaborative process. The Situation Assessment also identifies the Community Advisory Group (CAG), which is a membership-specific committee that provides oversight of the project planning process and ensures that decisions include a broad representation of the community and stakeholders impacted by the project.
