Document Description
The Conceptual Plan envisions a new park site on the 60.9 acre project site. The predominant activity will be passive recreation that highlights the existing natural landscape, and educating the visitor about the native California environment. Although restoration to a fully native plant palette is not proposed, the management of invasive species and re-vegetation using native species is a priority. The Conceptual Plan provides options for vehicular and pedestrian site access. Additional program opportunities within the future park are concentrated in one place to reserve most of the site as a natural habitat. A series of multi-purpose trails have been proposed to encourage the visitor to explore and enjoy the natural beauty of the site.
