For Star subscribers: City residents have until Sept.30 to weigh in on draft recommendations for future changes to Reid Park.

Carol Ann Alaimo The beloved duck pond at Reid Park has been spared. Now baseball fields are on the chopping block in a new set of draft options for the park’s future.

The rest of Reid Park would also see changes. They include adding one or more splash pads, new playground facilities, new art plazas and performance spaces and"observation structures" in nature areas, depending on which features end up in the final version of the master plan. The concepts are based on feedback the city gathered for several months through an online survey, stakeholder interviews, outreach events and close to 90,000 emails to community members, the website says. More than 2,700 Tucsonans have responded so far to the online survey that asks how they use the park and what features they most want to see in the future.

Other baseball facilities are available in the Tucson area — for example, those at Kino Sports Complex four miles away — but Kozachik said Reid Park is the most desirable site since it's close to hotels and restaurants.
