Green Valley Open Space Park
Click here to view the Open Space Park Report
Canoa Hills Golf Course is going to be transformed into a natural open space park, similar to Pima County’s Feliz Paseos Park. At the April 17, 2018 Pima County Board of Supervisors Meeting, the supervisors voted to approve the Open Space Park’s repurposing.
This video shows parts of various parks in Pima County that have Open Space areas. The Park to replace will be entirely Open Space at its inception. However, over time, more uses could be included in select areas. The GVC Park Task Force is examining all of these issues and the community’s needs, wants and concerns for the Park. Please provide any of your comments to info@gvcoucnil.org so they can be shared with the Task Force.
