If you’d like to help out with identifying and building a new park in Greenwood/Phinney, there’s a workshop tonight from 6:30-8 p.m. at the Greenwood Library.
In the voter-approved 2008 Parks and Green Spaces Levy, $7 million was set aside for park development and acquisition projects. The first step in the nomination process begins with a Proposal Letter, which is due Feb. 1. Tonight’s workshop will focus on developing those Proposal Letters.
If you can’t attend tonight’s workshop, three more workshops are scheduled in other neighborhoods: Thursday, Jan. 7 at High Point Community Center, 6920 34th Ave. SW; Tuesday, Jan. 12 in the Parks Department’s Board Room, 100 Dexter Ave. N.; and Thursday, Jan. 14 at New Holly Learning Center, 7058 32nd Ave. S.

Really? We need another park? Shouldn’t we be able keep the ones we have now safe first?

Let’s build what Greenwood really needs, based on other posts – an RV Park.

Crap. . .I missed it.
Personally I would really like a dog park and while it’s not offically in the ‘greenwood’ neighborhood it’s really close by and already city owned.
The 1/2 block near the interurban at Freemont and 107th I think would be perfect. I pasted a streetview link in the ‘website’ tab.
Email me if you’re interested in helping to see this through.

I’m confused. Is there any article here that explains all of the parks related stuff in one place or at least collects the various links? Are these 2 different things?:
