BACKGROUND
On April 19, 2016, the City Council adopted plans and specifications and authorized a call for bids for Estuary Park site improvements, Phase 1. The project is located on an eight acre park on Mosely Avenue near Singleton Avenue. Estuary Park has two distinct sections and will be re-developed in two phases. The four-acres on the west side (Phase 1) will be dedicated to athletic fields including one synthetic baseball diamond prioritized for special needs youth, plus one lighted synthetic turf rectangular field for soccer, lacrosse, rugby, and football. This will be the City's first lighted, synthetic turf multi-use field. It will also be the first City-owned regulation-size football field. The synthetic turf baseball diamond, with a soccer field striped in the outfield, is designed to be fully Americans with Disability Act (ADA) accessible with priority scheduling for youth and adults with mental and physical challenges.
The eastern 4-acres (Phase 2) is designed as a community park space with playgrounds for under 5 and 5-12 year olds, small and large group picnic areas, basketball courts, open lawns, and a dog park for small and large dogs. All of these park and recreation amenities are intended to serve the entire community, athletic field users, and the new residential housing anticipated at Alameda Landing and North Housing.
