Mission Bay South Shores GDP

Project Background

The Mission Bay South Shores General Development Plan (GDP) project is designed to update the GDP for the existing park in Mission Bay. The objective of the GDP is to define the best uses for the developed and undeveloped areas of South Shores Park through community outreach.

Scope of Work

This project will update the GDP for Mission Bay South Shores Park and includes workshops and presentations for public input on the park's amenities and approval through the GDP amendment process.

The vision for South Shores Park is to integrate recreational facilities across the 145-acre site while protecting environmentally sensitive areas and maintaining scenic viewpoints.

GDP improvements may include:

Multipurpose sports fields (baseball, soccer, football and field sports) and sports courts (basketball, tennis and pickleball).
Passive-use natural turf area.
Sports field, pedestrian and security lighting.
Children's playgrounds.
Outdoor fitness stations.
