<br /> Blackwood Farm Park is a 152-acre regional park between Chapel Hill and Hillsborough on NC 86 and New Hope
<br /> Church Road.The park opened on a limited basis in June 2015 and is currently open Thursday-Sunday. Funding for
<br /> park infrastructure, design, and other associated needs, including construction of new turn lanes, entryway and
<br /> parking was included in prior years. Construction drawings and bid documents for the majority of park construction
<br /> are underway and will be completed later this spring. In addition to the infrastructure, park construction includes new
<br /> picnic shelters, restrooms,an amphitheater, repairs and renovations t the farmstead, a fishing station,trails, and a
<br /> disc golf course.Agricultural exhibit areas will be created near the farmstead over the next few years using existing
<br /> resources. Park construction is estimated to begin in summer of 2020 with new features opening in summer/fall
<br /> 2021.
<br /> Funding for an ADA-accessible on-site vehicle (NEV) is included in Year 2 to be available when the park opens fulltime
<br /> in summer/fall of 2021. Funding of$910,000 is proposed in FY 2022-23 for the planned nature/learning center(with
<br /> associated matching partner revenue of$400,000), and design/pre-construction work for the final phase of park
<br /> construction (Phase III). Phase III funding of$775,000 is reflected in Year 4 for construction of the remaining park
<br /> facilities(primarily the New Hope Church Road area facilities and amenities),with additional equipment needs for the
<br /> park and nature center following in Year 5.
