Fort Wayne Parks to Hold Public Meeting for Foster Park Entrance
Seeks input on design optionsFort Wayne, Indiana (January 17, 2025) – Following feedback from two open house meetings in July 2024, Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation is prepared to present two conceptual design options for the reimagined Foster Park Entrance. The public is invited to review the designs and provide additional input on the project at an open house meeting on January 29, from 5:00-7:00 p.m. in the Indian Village Park Sears Pavilion, 1701 Bluffton Road.
The new design will seek to address not only the infrastructure and maintenance needs following the culmination of the Three Rivers Protection and Overflow Reduction Tunnel (3RPORT), but will also consider recreational amenities, landscape enhancements, pedestrian and vehicular circulation as well as the interface of a new plan with the existing beauty of Foster Park and its surroundings.
The redesign planning process is expected to be complete in late spring to early summer of 2025.
“Reasonable accommodations” for persons with a known disabling condition will be considered in accordance with state and federal law. Any person needing a “reasonable accommodation” should notify APRIL McCAMPBELL (260) 427-6024 or TTY Phone Number (260) 427-1200, within a reasonable time prior to the meeting.
Inclement Weather Procedure: Any program changes, facility closures or other weather-related adjustments will be posted to the FWPRD social media pages and website. Text alerts will be sent (to those that have opted-in to this service). If the Mayor declares an emergency, all Parks and Recreation facilities and programs will be closed or canceled.
