South Suburban is excited to announce the Sunset Park Improvement Project! This project will bring upgraded playgrounds for ages 2-5 and 5-12, a new shade structure, and upgraded site amenities, including bike racks, picnic tables, and benches. Additionally, we’ll be installing new ADA-compliant walkways to ensure a more accessible park for all.

As we plan these improvements, we’re carefully considering existing site constraints, such as the overhead electric lines and the Aurora Water line easement.

    South Suburban is planning updates for Sunset Park!

    Based on community feedback from the online public input survey (December 29, 2025 – January 16, 2026) and the in-person public meeting held at the park shelter on January06, 2026, the community expressed a preference for a modern/ traditional playground theme with climbing elements. 

    Please note that overhead power line height restrictions may influence the final design of certain elements. Also, the only difference between playground options A and B is color. 

    Community members are invited to share their input through this online survey from March 05 - March 19, 2026.
