Duvall staff told the Cultural Commission that King County Conservation Futures granted $780,000 to purchase an adjacent lot for Big Rock Park expansion, and estimated a quality Zen garden would cost about $20,000. Commissioners endorsed adding the project to the biennial art plan pending design and funding details.

City staff presented a 60%‑design update for Big Rock Park, describing newly annexed parcels, wetland constraints (85% deed-restricted conservation), and planned additions including a dual soccer/baseball Field 4 and a proposed synthetic turf conversion of Field 3 with lights. Funding will combine grants, county youth-sports dollars and development impact fees.

City staff and consultants presented a 30% design for Big Rock expansion that preserves three existing fields, adds one multiuse field, upgrades Field 3 to turf, increases parking to about 255 stalls, creates ≈2.5 miles of trails and includes a splash pad, pump track and new restroom capacity; King County Conservation Futures provided a $1.7M grant toward the project.
