Bossen Field to get redesign

Bossen Field Park, 5601 28th Ave. S., will have a new master plan designed starting in January 2015. The plan will guide an anticipated two-phase-construction to update and improve the park. Construction will begin as soon as fall 2015 and is expected to continue for 1-2 years.

The Bossen Field Master Plan will be developed with the assistance of nearby community members and citywide recreation participants. This project will have an appointed Community Advisory Committee (CAC) to help guide the design and prioritize improvements to the park.

The composition and charge of the CAC was presented to the MPRB Planning Committee at their Nov. 19 meeting. It will now go to the Full Board of Commissioners for approval on Dec. 5.

Community members interested in volunteering to participate on the CAC will find an application on the MPRB project website after Dec. 4.  See the project page for more information by visiting www.minneapolisparks.org and search for Bossen Field Park or look for the link under Design & Planning/Current Projects. Those interested are also encouraged to sign up for e-mail updates.
