Project funding
Over the next three years and beyond, $41.5 million will be invested in parks and recreation through the bond projects approved by Englewood voters. General Obligation Bonds require 85% of the work to be completed within three years, so the majority of projects are expected to be finished by 2028.
Thanks to your support, the city is investing in vibrant parks and recreation for everyone, now and into the future, through the Renew & Recreate campaign. Funded by the Parks and Recreation Bond, this initiative includes major upgrades to parks, playgrounds, recreation facilities and trails.
