The City of Goleta will celebrate the reopening of Evergreen Park at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, and the public is invited to join in the fun.

The mayor and City Council will cut the ribbon, and short remarks will be made by the mother of the young girl who first lobbied for the original park playground to be installed 13 years ago.

The park was temporarily closed to allow the city to remove outdated equipment and replace it with two new play structures, a new safety surface and some benches. The project was completed several weeks ahead of schedule.

Evergreen Park is located in the open space at the corner of Evergreen and Brandon drives.

The project was funded by a combination of Proposition 40 and Roberti-Z’berg-Harris (RZH) block grants.

Noozhawk Asks: What’s Your Question?

Welcome to Noozhawk Asks, a new feature in which you ask the questions, you help decide what Noozhawk investigates, and you work with us to find the answers.

Here’s how it works: You share your questions with us in the nearby box. In some cases, we may work with you to find the answers. In others, we may ask you to vote on your top choices to help us narrow the scope. And we’ll be regularly asking you for your feedback on a specific issue or topic.

We also expect to work together with the reader who asked the winning questions to find the answer together. Noozhawk’s objective is to come at questions from a place of curiosity and openness, and we believe a transparent collaboration is the key to achieve it.

The results of our investigation will be published here in this Noozhawk Asks section. Once or twice a month, we plan to do a review of what was asked and answered.

Thanks for asking!
