South Golden Neighborhoods Plan Update

Sept. 2023 Bachman Property Park Development Update:

Parks and Recreation has engaged with Stream Landscape Architecture to assist with early planning for the development of a future park on the Bachman Property.

Park planning requires careful coordination with the stormwater management project associated with Lena Gulch. Work to date has included site analysis, including the significance of archaeological findings on the property.

Currently, securing funding and finalizing the design for Lena Gulch is the primary task. Additional information is anticipated early in 2024, and the next steps in the park design process will be developed subsequent to the Lena Gulch decisions. Decisions are being made with consideration for assuring future high-value park development opportunities.
