AUBURN, Wash. - April 21, 2010 - The public is cordially invited to attend an Open House to discuss the upcoming Park planning efforts for Lea Hill Park. Two open houses will be held. One on Tuesday, May 18 and the other on Tuesday, June 15 at 6:30 p.m. at the Lea Hill Community Clubhouse, 12120 SE 319th Place, Auburn, 98092.
It is proposed that the current Lea Hill park property be used by Green River Community College for their Trades Building. The community has the opportunity to provide input into design elements for a new community park for the neighborhood. The 7 acre site is located adjacent to the north side of the current park.
The purpose of the Open House will be to begin a discussion for the park design; present several site planning concepts to interested individuals; solicit input from the Lea Hill Community and other park users as to the vision of how the site can be used; and answer general questions about the project.
For more information about the Lea Hill Park planning efforts, please call 253-931-3043 or visit www.auburnwa.gov.
