Elizabeth Price Park

Location
The 2.5-acre park is located at 13001 SW Bull Mountain Road (opposite Alberta Rider Elementary School)
- Aerial Overview Park Map

Amenities
Elizabeth Price Park amenities include a playground for young children, picnic tables, and open space both on top and adjacent to the underground reservoir. A winding interpretive trail atop the reservoir will lead park-goers past a viewpoint to a compass inlaid in concrete.

There's More Underground...
Underneath the park is a reservoir facility that serves all our water customers. This reservoir will save pumping costs and provide an additional 3 million gallons of drinking water storage. The increased water capacity will also provide improved fire protection in the area.

Also located at the park is an Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) well drilled and capped for future use. The ASR allows us to buy inexpensive water in the winter, pump it into the aquifer, store it, and pump it out in the summer when water use is higher. This ASR can store up to 150 million gallons of water. It will provide 2.3 million gallons a day of additional water when demand is at its peak!

Award Winning Project
The City of Tigard Public Works Department received an award from the Pacific Northwest Section American Water Works Association Engineering Committee for "Excellence in Engineering Best Medium Public Works Project" for this innovative park. The award recognizes Rob Murchison - City of Tigard, Matt Hickey - Murray, Smith & Associates, Tim Janesofsky - Emery & Sons, Susan Oman - landscape architect, David Hancock - H.B. Stubbs Company, GRI Geotechnical & Environmental Consultants, NLV Services, R&W Engineering, and Sigma Engineering.
