Harrison Avenue Streetscape Improvement Project was a Public-Private-Partnership that addressed deteriorating infrastructure, parking, and water quality improvements. The project work allowed business owners the opportunity to participate in a regional stormwater treatment collection, conveyance and treatment system that allowed them to acquire their TRPA BMP certifications. The improvements included the extension of a Class 1 bike trail that connects an existing Class 1 bike trail to Lakeview Commons. Parking areas near Lakeview Commons were redesigned and a community park (Champions Plaza) was added to create a location to celebrate local athletes worldwide accomplishments.
