Junction City Manager Allen Dinkel said this past week that there were a record number of lots, over 300, sold in the Land Bank in 2023. The Land Bank Board, has also designated some lots in the Sutter Woods area for a future new park. "We have no city park west of highway 77, and know there's a need out there. You need to have recreation in your community," said Dinkel.
The city manager said the timetable is unknown. "Over the next year or two we'll get some of the things going. The City still has some ARPA left from the COVID money that we have to get at least obligated this year." Dinkel added that the City is working on that as well with different projects that they make want to undertake.
