Using State Park Development and Community Revitalization <br />Grants, the City was able to finance the project without limiting park amenities. The new park <br />site includes an outdoor fitness center with dynamic exercise stations to promote healthy living. <br />Other active recreation amenities include a full basketball court, spray play and shaded playground <br />elements, and even a skate spot to appeal to the teens and pre -teens. Picnic pads are dotted <br />throughout the park, while visitors looking for shade can enjoy the overhead picnic shelter. <br />Maintaining a sustainable design, vegetative swales were designed throughout the site to capture <br />and control stormwater, while the site was landscaped using California native and drought tolerant <br />plantings to minimize water usage. Materials from the site were re -used to construct the site <br />features, while other required materials were locally sourced. <br />Community involvement was a key component in the process, involving residents in community <br />workshops to decide on the elements incorporated in the park. Local clubs and volunteers <br />assisted in the plant material installation, while local artists participated in the creation of public art <br />to be displayed in the park. <br />Project Team Comm ifymmuedspom <br />Principal: Zachary Mueting �� A GROUP <br />Project Manager: Erik Curran 1 r 1 <br />City of Santa Ana • On -Call Landscape Architectural Services 117 <br />
