COMMUNITY PARKS
Community parks are larger than neighborhood parks and are
designed to serve the needs of a broader age group. These parks
often attract people from outside the area in which they are
located. Typically these facilities contain tennis, volleyball,
handball and basketball courts, picnic areas and sports fields
for seasonal sports such as basebal and football. Community
parks generally range in size from approximately 5 to 30 acres.
Existing Community Park:
1. Edison Park - College Park West
