Juel Property Acquisition
Description:
This project will acquire 38 acres to be used for youth and community athletic fields. The acquisition will also expand Redmond's Farrel-McWhirter Park and provide parking for the regional Puget Power Trail. The Juel family agreed to sell their property to the city for only $400,000 - a donation of over $1.6 million - as long as the site provides future athletic ballfields for children. The city is excited for the opportunity to acquire this property that will fill a well documented need for active park lands within the City of Redmond. Future proposed elements would include ballfields, sports courts (tennis, basketball, volleyball), restroom/concession building, parking, picnic shelters, community pea patch areas, and trails.
