Previous Improvements

Jackson Community Park underwent a master planning process for park renovations. In 2012, two public planning meetings were held at Jackson Park. A conceptual master plan was presented to the public showing potential site enhancements throughout the park and to gain insight for the preferred location of a new splash pad. In 2015, construction was completed for a new splash pad with connector pathways and new outdoor restrooms.
