Site work and paving for a mixed-use development in Delaware, Ohio. Conceptual plans call for site work for a playground / park / athletic field; road / highway; and for paving for a road / highway.

In 2022, based on a southeast community park feasibility study, we are recommending acquisition of 35-40 acre parcel to secure a location for a future community park. This would be located in the growing southeast part of the city and would provide park amenities such athletic field space, walking trails, court space and restrooms that are currently lacking in this area. We are also recommending a proposed trail connection from Blue Limestone Park to Elizabeth street to promote access to the downtown area and expand the Delaware Run Greenway. In 2023, we are recommending expansion of Unity Park (formerly Ross St Park) to include walking trails, greenspace, restrooms and a splash pad. These improvements were recommended through public outreach and development of a park master plan. We are also recommending construction of the Mingo Park River walk. This section would separate pedestrians from vehicular traffic and complete a loop trail in the park. The park has experienced increase use and the connection would greatly improve safety in the park. We would also recommend the Oakhurst Park pedestrian connection south to Pennsylvania Ave, also referred to as B.R.O.P.A.T.H. This will also greatly increase safety and offer an alternative option for pedestrian traffic currently on U.S.23. In 2025, we re recommending a connection from the Stratford Road and U.S. 23 connection south to Chapman Road and Pollock Road. This will involve a partnership with Delaware and Liberty Townships to potentially submit a grant for trail construction. In 2026, we are recommending an expansion to the Delaware Run Greenway. A feasibility study suggested a pedestrian tunnel under the CSX line next to Blue Limestone park to allow expansion of the a pedestrian trail west to the Hidden Valley Golf Course and potentially Grady Hospital. The project is included in the city's 2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As of February 10, 2022, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified.* *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
