Coconut Creek is set to benefit from an expanded and improved park.

During the May 28 meeting, the commission passed a resolution to approve an agreement with Sagaris Corporation for the Oak Trails Park expansion project for a contract of $2,890,000.

The improvements will include two multi-purpose fields for athletics and passive use, and an outdoor fitness area with exercise stations and a half-mile trail running through the park. According to city information, there will be a picnic area and water fountains.

An existing house at the park will be renovated into a nature center with classrooms, restrooms, and an office. There will be one acre of native vegetation, a butterfly garden with an interpretive kiosk, improved pathways, and a parking lot, according to city information.

In 2017, the city recognized an opportunity to expand the park when two adjacent parcels became available for sale. Coconut Creek purchased the two five-acre parcels adjacent to the park on the east and west sides in 2017 and 2018 and received a Florida Communities Trust grant to partially reimburse the city for these purchases, according to city information.

Coconut Creek was obligated to renovate an existing home into a nature center and to create new pathways, picnic areas, multi-use fields, outdoor exercise equipment, and a native planting area, according to city information.

Oak Trails Park is located in the northern part of the city at 4230 Northwest 74 Street.
