In March of this year Salt Lake County deeded Riverview Park and Woodstock Park to Murray City. These two parks are neighborhood parks located in Murray City boundaries. Salt Lake County has owned and maintained the parks for many years. However, the county’s focus is turning to larger regional parks, and it made sense to give Riverview Park and Woodstock Park to Murray City.
The Murray City Parks and Recreation department is taking proactive steps to improve, enhance and maintain the parks. There are plans to put in new playgrounds at Riverview Park and Woodstock Park, build a new
pavilion and restroom at Woodstock Park, restore lighting on the tennis courts at Riverview Park, resurface the courts for pickle ball and restore the path lighting at Riverview Park.
By investing in these upgrades, Murray City demonstrates its commitment to providing residents well-maintained parks and recreational facilities. These enhancements can promote outdoor activities, community engagement, and overall well-being, and contribute to an improved recreational experience for the community.
