“Once a citizen has reviewed the draft schematic site plan, they may provide comments regarding any additional park program elements they would like to see included as part of this master plan by emailing lcole@earthelementsnm.com,” the city said. Comments will be taken until 5 p.m. Friday, Dec. 11.

Little River Park is named for the watercourse that runs through the more-than 100-acre property.
