South Anchorage Sports Park Master Plan Process (2014)

Project Overview

The 2014 master plan update provided an important framework for future development. This framework ensures that future improvements such as infrastructure and sports fields align with the recreation needs of the growing South Anchorage community.

The final product was an updated master plan that reflects community needs and established a framework for future development of sports facilities, playing fields and other community park amenities at the SASP. 

Public Engagement

Public engagement is important to any planning project. To ensure that the updated master plan aligns with the desires of the community, Parks and Recreation worked closely with an adviso​ry group.
