Vision
An accessible recreation area for our community
Project Features
Please note that all numbers referenced in the descriptions below align with the numbered features in the illustration above.
(1) Site Entrance & Parking
The CORA entrance will include signage and an information kiosk (16). Site parking for CORA will be on the west side of the site and will include two accessible parking spaces (14). The parking lot will be paved and have lights (15). Long-term plans include researching if installing a solar electric array is feasible (currently #10, although the location of the solar canopy is not yet decided, and could also be on the pavilion roof).
(2) Walking Trail
The walking trail will be built around the perimeter of the CORA site with benches located throughout (12). Two exercise stations will be located above the retaining wall between the pollinator garden and the courts. The walking trail will be ADA-compliant allowing everyone to enjoy the gardens and trees planted around the site (17).
The picnic shelter will be an open timber-framed pavilion, providing shade and cover when needed for small and large groups. There will be picnic tables in the pavilion and a nearby BBQ grill on the open lawn (13). The pavilion will be easily accessible from the parking lot.
(3) Pavilion
(4) & (5) Horseshoe & cornhole pitch and a bocce ball court
Enjoy horseshoes and a game of cornhole on the pitch that will be built in the open area close to the pavilion. A Bocce ball court will be located in the space between the open picnic area and the wind turbine and gardens.
(8) Pollinator Gardens
Pollinator gardens with walking paths and flora identification labels around the existing wind turbine area and along the walking path will provide a beautiful and educational element to CORA. The outdoor kitchen and outdoor garden will be preserved and moved back for continued use by the school (6) & (7).
(9) Pickleball & Tennis Courts
Enjoy a game of pickleball or tennis with your neighbors. Tennis and pickleball balls, pickleball paddles, and portable pickleball nets will be available for use in a nearby storage box. The courts will have lighting for evening play (15).
