Luther Burbank Park Master Plan
Luther Burbank Park is a destination for all Mercer Islanders and will increasingly be a destination for residents of Mercer Islands growing downtown. The park has become a favorite location for celebrating special events, for families, young children, seniors and more.
The intent of this master plan is building on the success of the existing park and looking to the future, to identify how the park can best serve the city and its residents for decades to come. The timing of this master plan is logical, with the City having acquired the Park from King County, it is an opportunity to make Luther Burbank Park Mercer Island’s park, a place that reflects the city and its citizens.
The goals of this Long Range Master Plan are to:
- Create a memorable park experience.
- Provide strong park recognition and identity.
- Guide future maintenance and capital improvements to the park using a holistic approach to the planning process.
- Respond creatively to current park uses and facilities while anticipating future uses and facility needs.
- Provide adequate budget figures for proposed improvements, so that the Master Plan can be used as an effective decision-making tool to prioritize and justify the importance of required funding and guide the implementation of projects.
- Allow for phased construction to work within budgetary realities.
