The $600,000 requested grant amount would fund site work, site amenities, irrigation and planting towards the total estimated project cost of$1,450,000. LeBard Park is an important element identified in the city's Santa Ana River Blue Ribbon Committee Report, as approved by the City Council in February 2007. One of the objectives of the Orange Coast River Park (OCRP) Master Plan is to provide ADA access, wherever feasible. The five-acre LeBard Park site is adjacent to LeBard School and the Santa Ana River. The existing three acres of developed city park includes traditional neighborhood park amenities and a public parking lot. The project scope for this proposed grant funding would provide for turf, paths, picnic shelter, and ADA access within LeBard Park, adjacent to and including the Santa Ana River Pathway. Strategic Plan Goal: Land Use: Preserve the quality of our neighborhoods, maintain open space. Environmental Status: Necessary environmental review would be completed prior to any improvements.
