Additional Details: Seating, pedestrian lighting, and a large shade structure were incorporated to provide comfortable observation by adults. Pedestrian walks incorporated “dinosaur track” imprints, and a dino-fossil dig area allows for children to explore their inner paleontologist. Custom park signage was designed to provide an aesthetic entry into the park and used as a template for upcoming park design to create a sense of branding within the community. A booster pump was necessary to ensure proper design pressure, and the irrigation system is managed using a major irrigation control platform that allows users to command control of programing for the overall park system and shared HOA spaces within the Foxtail developments.
