On-Going Projects
Barnes Park Aquatic Center Project
The City Council prioritized development of the Parks System Master Plan to guide the future of Monterey Park’s open spaces, recreational programming, and public facilities. Launched in March 2024 with support from LA County Measure A, the plan was completed and adopted on August 6, 2025. Through community surveys, park audits, and public workshops, residents consistently emphasized the need for a safe, modern swimming facility, leading the plan to identify the Barnes Park Aquatic Center as one of the city’s highest-priority reinvestment sites.
