Document Description

The city of Morgan Hill proposes to improve an existing 1.7-acre open space parcel for passive recreational use. The proposed project involves the construction and installation of recreational facilities improvements as well as improvements to segments of West Third St and Del Monte Ave. The City's park improvement plans include: 1) construction of trails, paths and walkways; 2) picnic tables; 3) a pedestrian bridge across Little Llagas Creek; 4) play equipment; and 5) benches, lighting, security camera, and water fountain. Additionally, the city would reconstruct an existing parking lot and repave West Third St and Del Monte Ave for improved access. An existing bridge on West Third St crossing Little Llagas Creek would also be replaced.
