The Town of Plainfield is excited to announce the groundbreaking for Franklin Park. Plainfield Town Council Members, Town staff, Banning Engineering representatives, Patterson Horth representatives and other Plainfield community members and partners gathered to celebrate the groundbreaking.
Franklin Park, the Town’s oldest park, will see several new and improved features, including: crosswalk and sidewalk intersection improvements, enhanced playground equipment, dog park with
shade structures, resurfaced tennis court, Anderson Baseball Diamond enhancements and updates, full-court basketball with side goals, 8 Pickle Ball Courts with shade structures, path improvements to Pinnacle Lane, redevelopment of Franklin Park Trail Loop, enhanced updates on park restrooms and shelter houses, community greenspace and additional parking.
In 2021, the Town of Plainfield hosted multiple public input sessions for the Franklin Park Masterplan. Plainfield residents participated both virtually and in-person to provide their voice in the redevelopment. The Parks and Recreation Department took the community’s input to create the Franklin Park Masterplan, helping enrich the future of our Town and positively affect the quality of life provided to residents. On May 22, 2023, the Plainfield Town Council approved contract with Patterson Horth for the Franklin Park Improvements Project.
The project is scheduled to be completed in December of 2023.
