Santa Clara Park is a future community park site currently comprised of two open fields with informal walking paths on the north and east sides of Madison Middle School, off Wilkes Drive. In February, City of Eugene Parks and Open Space held its first of three public meetings intended to help create a vision and gather input on conceptual plans for this 35-acre park in Santa Clara.
The 2nd workshop for Santa Clara Community Park will be held virtually via Zoom on August 25th from 6-8pm. To join the meeting use the following link and password:

The workshop report and survey results from the first public meeting are available now on Engage Eugene on the Santa Clara Community Park project page.
In general, the survey from the first workshop shows a high level of interest in the community for many of the typical elements that we see in a community park, including a playground, restroom, shade, open lawn, courts, flexible event space and picnic facilities. There is also a high regard for natural areas and trails. The concept options being developed reflect these priorities.
For those that are not connected virtually, Parks and Open Space will be posting at kiosks in the park and exploring more opportunities and tools to reach out.
