Bettendorf's new Forest Grove Park: six years and $4.7 million later first public amenity takes shape

on Mon, 06/27/2016 - 21:39   by Editor

Bettendorf's newest park – Forest Grove – will finally welcome visitors sometime late this summer with the opening of a small "Community Corner" consisting of a picnic shelter, restrooms, a children's playground and a 24-car parking lot.

The first usable feature of the park on the city's far north edge will be a notable event, but the long road to the first amenity hasn't been cheap: $1.8 million to date, not including $2.92 million the city paid for the 92-acres back in 2010.

Five years, $275,000 in planning and design fees later, Forest Grove Park may get first improvement

Five years and nearly $275,000 in planning and design fees later, Bettendorf's new Forest Grove Park may get its first actual improvement – a small playground area with one basketball hoop, a shelter and parking for two dozen cars – later this summer.
