The city broke ground on the new Paloma Community Park at Lake Pleasant Parkway and Dixileta Drive, April 30.
Peoria and Maricopa County elected officials as well as staff members joined the celebration for the initial 85 acres of the park to include tournament-grade baseball and soccer fields, multi-use open turf, a fishing lake, multi-generational inclusive playgrounds and splash pad, group and individual picnic ramadas, a multi-cell dog park, lighted pickleball courts, supporting park maintenance, restroom, and concessions buildings.
The community park is eventually expected to span 120 acres – to be the city’s largest park – and serve the northern part of the city.
