Delta Park

So much work has been completed at Delta Park—a lot of it underground and not visible to the public: site grading, water pipes, and drainage, just to name a few. If you pass Delta Park today, you will see some of the "fun" elements, such as the shade structure and new sidewalks showing a new path for connectivity. Before long, you will see grass, trees, and play structures that will truly brighten up the place.

Thanks to a relatively mild winter, construction on the Delta Park Project is progressing on schedule. We remain on track for our anticipated summer opening!

We remind all residents to please respect the construction fencing and obey all posted safety signage when near the project site. Your cooperation helps ensure everyone's safety while we complete this exciting community addition. We will announce an opening date and celebration details in the coming weeks.

The City of Greeley Parks will be installing construction fencing around Delta Park starting the week of August 5, weather permitting.

For your safety and to ensure the timely completion of this project, we ask all residents to adhere to the following guidelines:

• Do Not Disturb the Fencing: Please do not disturb, move, or climb over the construction fencing. It is there for your safety.
• Stay Out of the Construction Zone: Avoid entering the construction area at all times. Heavy machinery and ongoing work can pose serious hazards.
• Keep Children and Pets Away: Ensure that children and pets are kept at a safe distance from the construction site. The fencing may impact walking paths to school.
• Find Alternative Routes to School: The fencing may prevent children from cutting through the park to get to school. Please plan ahead and use alternative routes during the construction period.
• Be Aware of Increased Traffic: Expect increased traffic and activity around the park. Please be vigilant and cautious when driving or walking nearby.
• Respect Signage and Barriers: Follow all posted signs and respect the barriers in place.

We appreciate your cooperation in keeping everyone safe and allowing us to complete the project without delays.

Thank you to everyone who attended the July 26 'Meet Me in the Park' event and groundbreaking at Delta Park. What a beautiful day of food, fun, families and fellowship.

In the coming weeks, residents will start to see construction vehicles and fencing in the park.
A friendly reminder to stay safe and stay out of the construction zone.

Have you read the new book featuring Delta Park?

“What Happened to My Paletas?” tells the story of Calixto, a man looking for his lost cart of paletas. Along the way Calixto meets several Delta Park neighbors who help him in his quest. Designed and illustrated by Greeley artist Armando Silva, this colorful book is something all ages can enjoy.

Armando recently stopped by The Midnight Oil bookstore (827 10th Street) to give a live reading of the book… and to enjoy a tasty paleta. The room was filled to the brim with friends and families eager to experience the new book and grab Armando’s autograph.
