The City of Lakeport hired SSA to provide landscape architectural, engineering and grant support services for Xabatin Park. This new park is partially funded by a Prop 68 Grant and had a budget of 5.5 million. It is a part of the revitalization planned for Lakeport, and was purposefully designed as a recreational hub for the community. The goal for the park is to create opportunities which enhance community health and well-being, provide space for social gatherings, attract visitors and provide economic activity to the area.
In designing the park, beautiful views of Clear Lake and Mount Konocti were enhanced through tree removal and placement of plazas and structures that frame these views. Park Amenities include a concessions/restroom building, shaded picnic areas and a splash pad. An active area includes a skate park, sequential fitness area and basketball court. Surrounding the grand lawn is an amphitheater, a lake front promenade and pathways with benches overlooking the lake. The park opened in late fall 2023.
