New playground equipment went in at Mulberry Park and Discovery Children's Park, shade sails were added at Richmar Playground, Bradley Park is getting a larger playground, and a $5 million state grant from Assemblymember Darshana Patel will fund improvements at six parks. Two new parks — Old California Row Park and Skyview Park — are also on the way.
