Welcome!

The draft master plan for College Park is designed to enhance passive recreation opportunities, such as walking and outdoor gatherings for residents of surrounding neighborhoods. The design also proposes diversifying the landscape – adding shade trees and native plants – and improving the stormwater pond system to reduce flooding and support water quality. The plan offers an opportunity to showcase the natural beauty of a working, sustainable landscape in an urban area.*

*As you review the draft plan, please note the steep hills and narrow, linear shape of College Park limit locating active recreation facilities. Sports fields and courts require large, flat areas and parking. The City has intentionally located active recreation facilities in nearby parks that can more easily accommodate those types of uses.
