Doc Hageman Park

WWRP Applicant: City of Lynnwood
RCO Project Number: 08-1580
County: Snohomish 
Legislative District: 1st 
WWRP Category: Local Parks
WWRP Grant: $500,000
Applicant Match: $500,000
Project Type: Development

Description:

The scope of this project is to develop a neighborhood park on an old farm site in the Tutmark Hill neighborhood in Lynnwood's MUGA. Rapid residential development has occurred here without provision for recreational open space. Over 200 new homes have been built within ½-mile of the park. Martha Lake Park, a county regional park, is 1 mile north. Because the county doesn’t provide parks at the neighborhood level, Lynnwood acquired the 7.69-acre site to provide a recreation facility for the rapidly growing unincorporated area. This park will meet the neighborhood’s recreation needs and provide residents with an understanding of their agricultural heritage. The park, named for Doc Hageman who farmed the property for over 50 years, has a rich agricultural history which is incorporated into the design of the park. The park site was purchased in 2002 with a county neighborhood improvement grant. At public meetings held in 2007, the neighborhood enthusiastically supported development of the park and participated in the design of the preliminary master plan. This project includes community gardens, interpretive signs, loop trail, sport court, play equipment, picnic areas, large informal play field, restrooms and parking. The scope of work includes Architecture & Engineering, Fences & Gates, Landscaping, Outdoor Courts, Park Amenities, Park Furniture, Parking, Playground, Restrooms, Signage, Site Preparation, Trails and Utilities.
