Delta Park
Re-Imagining Delta Park
Delta Park is a 6-acre neighborhood park in East Greeley. The park is positioned in the middle of nearby apartments, practically serving as a backyard for many homes. The City of Greeley is partnering with The Trust for Public Land (TPL), Lutheran Family Services Rocky Mountains, and other key partners to re-envision the space and address the limited opportunities for recreation and relaxation. The City hopes to build a sense of community connection, ownership, and pride in this neighborhood park and asks residents and community partners to guide the park's renovation.
Project Goals
By engaging with the community before renovating Delta Park, we hope to:
- Increase the use of Delta Park by the whole community, specifically the people who live close to the park, a large portion of whom are immigrants and refugee families;
- Improve understanding and cross-cultural relationships;
- Build a foundation of trust;
- Renovate the park based on the residents' shared preferences and priorities.
Community Engagement Strategies
In support of the project goals, the City and TPL will:
- employing the assistance of resident experts;
- holding community events;
- supporting culturally relevant programs in the park; and
- creating opportunities to listen and learn from the community.
