For Yolo County Parks and Resources Management
Capay, California

Questa recently developed  a Park Master Plan for a 42-acre park and natural area straddling Cache Creek, near the community of Capay in western Yolo County. The Master Plan included a trail system, creek restoration, interpretive elements and signage, an educational pavilion, and visitor- serving facilities, such as parking, picnic, and shade shelter areas, restrooms, and an outdoor education area. The utility design work included a 200-gpm well for water supply and specifications for a two-unit waterless vault restroom facility.

Community involvement was an important component of the work, and project planning included facilitating a number of community meetings and design workshops, as well as completion of a recreational needs survey and the development of informational flyers posted on the County Website and throughout the community. Questa worked closely with the Parks, Recreation, and Wildlife Advisory Committee, the Cache Creek Technical Advisory Committee, and several community groups, including the Cache Creek Conservancy and Valley Vision, to provide outreach and customize the design components to fulfill community needs.
