Mayor Amy Walen, Deputy Mayor Jay Arnold, Councilmembers Toby Nixon and Jon Pascal were joined by over 30 community members on June 10 to celebrate the transfer of Hazen Hills Park to the City of Kirkland.

The park, located at 13215 121st Ave. N.E. in the Kingsgate neighborhood, was donated to the city by the Hazen Hills Homeowners Association and contains open lawn areas, a backstop for informal sports activities and a small stream.

This latest addition to Kirkland’s public park system supports the city’s goal of having a neighborhood park within a quarter-mile walking distance from each Kirkland household.
