The city of Lakewood will host a public meeting to gather input for Carmody Park’s master plan from 6-7 p.m. Sept. 12 at Carmody Middle School, 2050 S. Kipling St.
This first meeting will focus on gathering the opinions of the public and user groups about the overall site, circulation, parking, utility and programming needs.
Subsequent meetings will include review of master plan alternatives and the presentation of the preferred master plan to guide future improvements. The master plan is due to be completed by January 2014.
Carmody Park, owned by the city of Lakewood, encompasses approximately 34 acres that was originally developed by Foothills Parks and Recreation District in the 1970s. The city took ownership of the site and facilities in 2000 and completed recreation center modifications in 2002.
