The original footprint of the Greenwood Park was acquired in the 1990s. Since then, the city has been working to acquire the adjacent properties along Fremont Avenue. There were four properties there and by 2002 the City Department of Parks and Recreation had acquired four of them. This is the last parcel that was outstanding. The park's development property management team has been working with the current owners to ensure a successful transaction. With today's council action, we are completing a park that has been identified as a goal in both the Greenwood Neighborhood Plan and the Greenwood Park Masterplan. Residents from the area offered public comment to our committee, letting us know that they were committed to working with the city to make sure the design meets the needs of their community . Residents who live nearby call this park their yard, where their children learn to ride their bikes, make friends and play, and neighbors from all around gather and build relationships. This acquisition is more than just a piece of land. It's an investment in this community that will have a ripple effects improving the health and wellness of everyone in the area.
