Insights by Role

Developer

MediumMedium significance — notable action worth trackingThe CCW property off Division Road is no longer the site of the Holly Trestle Trail parking lot and has no funded park proposal attached to it, removing an assumed public use from that parcel. The new parking location is near The Grove at Flour Bluff Drive and Division Road.

Resident

MediumMedium significance — notable action worth trackingResidents near Flour Bluff Drive and Division Road should know the Holly Trestle Trail parking lot has been moved to a site near The Grove and away from the CCW property, and that no park is planned or funded at the CCW property. Design is near 90 percent complete, so the window to influence design details is narrowing. Because the property is not a Parks & Recreation asset, this committee cannot make recommendations on it; follow the project through the Engineering Department and City Council instead.
