City Northside Park expansion project under way

Boerne Parks and Recreation Department on Friday closed own Northside Community Park as construction of a new 40-acre, $16.5 million park gets underway.

The project, approved by Boerne voters in the 2022 bond program, will feature an all-abilities playscape, multi-use sports fields with lights, a dog park, pickleball courts, a splashpad, a food truck court, and other amenities.

“This park represents our community’s commitment to creating spaces where everyone — families, athletes and neighbors of all ages — can come together,” Mayor Frank Ritchie said. “It’s an investment in our quality of life today and for generations to come.”
