IELITO PARK is a 45-acre park built in
1970. A committee of various community
leaders, including Granada Neighborhood
Association and Vecinos Unidos Siempre, worked
hard with City of Phoenix Parks and Recreation
to help renovate our wonderful community park.
They developed several plans for renovation, after
which an open community meeting was held to
finalize which renovation plan would be chosen to
be funded:
New lights have been installed in the soccer
field. The containment area for the new play area
is completed along with the design of the new
playground. Installation of the new play area
started at the end of September.
Drinking fountains and walks have been
installed with several more to go. Once
completed, a stabilized decamped granite
path will be installed.
New lighting throughout the ENTIRE park
will begin in October with an expected completion
date at the end of December 2013.
Also, Vecinos Unidos Siempre blockwatch
group, along with children fromGranada East
Middle School and other Granada residents,
participated inmaking a beautiful mural as a way
to promote positive activities and crime prevention.
The inauguration event was held July 15, 2013.
