The Spokane County Parks Department is moving forward with plans to expand the facilities at Prairie View Park at Freya and 61st. Currently the site of the Southside Family Aquatics Facility, the new expansion will develop softball field, a Little League baseball field, and a number of sand volleyball courts. The development will also include an 8′ wide pathway around the park and include approximately 35 new parking spaces.
The SEPA comment period for this project closed August 1st last week, so work on grading might begin in a few weeks. The project coordinator for the County Parkes Department is John Bottelli and he said he will still take comments from neighbors and is willing to answer any questions you may have. You can reach him at jbottelli@spokanecounty.org.
You can see renderings of the proposed improvement on the Prairie View Park page on the County website. Additionally we’ve uploaded the latest design documents provided by the County to our website.
