City of Kirkland and regional partners are asking community members to voluntarily use less water. Help by reducing outdoor watering, taking shorter showers, and turning off water when brushing teeth or shaving.
The Park Planning and Development division is responsible for park master planning, facility design, land acquisition, capital projects, construction management, grant preparation, and long range strategic policy planning for Parks.
We are currently working on a variety of projects to improve Kirkland's green space. A summation of monthly progress on each of our current projects can be reviewed in our Monthly Reports.
