Completed

The City of Glendora is planning to install a water filtration tank underneath the softball field at Finkbiner Park which will clean and restore water to Little Dalton Wash. With its installation comes an opportunity to enhance the softball field and basketball court, incorporate native plants and trees, and improve flood management. Active San Gabriel Valley (ActiveSGV) with Craftwater Engineering, Inc. conducted outreach to educate and inform residents and visitors about the proposed park enhancement via a public input survey, pop-up outreach events, tabling and community events, and presentations to stakeholder groups.
