Bondurant is transforming a retention pond required for stormwater needs into a regional destination park.
The City Council recently adopted the Central District Stormwater Improvements Master Plan, which features a 116-acre park with a 36-acre lake as its focal point.
The lake will retain stormwater for the adjacent approximately 150 acres. The lake is designed not only to retain stormwater but to enhance water quality.
Central Park will be located on the southeastern corner of Highway 65 and Grant Street S.
The body of water will give kayakers a fun experience navigating the lobed-shaped lake.
Recreational flex spaces are nestled throughout the park, which also boasts a network of paths and trails, a community building with views over the water, playgrounds, a boathouse, and a beach.
