The City of San Luis Obispo will host a community meeting on March 18 to share updates and gather public input on the upcoming construction of Righetti Community Park, a new recreational space planned for the Righetti Ranch neighborhood.

The meeting will include updates from the city’s Engineering and Parks and Recreation departments about the park’s construction timeline. It is set to begin at 4 p.m. at 1203 Tiburon Way.

According to the City of San Luis Obispo, the park is part of a broader parks system planned for the Orcutt Area and Righetti Ranch neighborhood. The system includes three park sites: an approximately 11.25-acre community park, a 1.16-acre linear park, a 0.20-acre pocket park and a trailhead at Righetti Hill Open Space.
