How will wildlife in the park be affected?
The county will preserve as much habitat and native vegetation as possible, including the wetland in the northwest corner of the property. The county conducted a bird survey in spring 2010 to get a better understanding about what types of birds use the property. There are no known threatened or endangered species on the site.
