The Flood Park Project consists of the inquiry, assessment, and feasibility of acquisition of Flood Park by the City of Menlo Park. The goal of this project is to look into ways in which the City of Menlo Park can sustainably operate the park to avoid its closure by the County of San Mateo. The park sits on roughly 21-acres on Bay Road between Willow and Marsh Roads and is home to sport fields, tennis courts, volleyball courts, horseshoe pits, picnic areas, a playground, and various park structures. |
