Site work and new construction of a mixed-use development in Bakersfield, California. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a playground / park / athletic field; and for site work for a playground / park / athletic field.

Police Agility Course: This $300,000 project will construct a permanent Police Agility Course at Yokuts Park. This course will include facilities to test police applicants and trainees to ensure performance of basic job-related activities such as jumping over a six-foot wall and six-foot chain link fence; completing a 99-yard obstacle course; and dragging a 165-pound body. The Course can be utilized by PD staff for monthly applicant testing, police academy trainee training and exams, and can be open to the public for recreational use or private practice. The Recreation and Parks Department supports this project and is currently funding the construction of the solid wall and chain-link fence; however, other areas of the agility course will require an artificial track surface. This surface provides a non-slip, durable running surface which also meets California POST safety requirements for testing events. This surface will not only meet performance and safety objectives, but it will add to the aesthetics of a local park and enhance the professional appearance during our regular police use. This project is included in the City of Bakersfield's FY 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As of October 26, 2022, information regarding a design team or a general contractor is not available. Funding is anticipated in 2022/2023.* *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
