Aurora officials are working off two basic plans for the proposed renovation of Garfield Park.
Either plan will be refined after more public input, and the city is preparing to apply for a state grant to pay for half of the renovation.
The deadline for applying for the next round of OSLAD grants is Aug. 31, so the City Council will vote next week on a resolution authorizing applying for the grant. Both plans include a new playground, splash pad, bathroom and shelter, upgraded parking with rain gardens and EV charging stations, two permanent street soccer fields, four pickleball courts, a large artificial turf area that could be used for multiple sports, mainly soccer, baseball and football, a second parking lot and an American with Disabilities Act-accessible baseball field.
Trevor Dick, deputy director of the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development, said this week the $1.2 million would not be enough to do the entire renovation, no matter which plan is chosen. He said the project would have to be done in a “phased” manner.
