Installation of curbing and a patch of artificial turf next to the Fernley Depot was completed last week as the latest step in the landscaping of Polaris Plaza.
Fernley Community Foundation Chairman Cody Wagner said bricks, additional concrete work, and possibly the construction of a small structure are the next steps.
The landscaping work began in November, with fencing already installed. In October, Wagner told the City Council that the Phase I plaza improvement plans include 200 linear feet of 44-inch-high black iron fencing around the area, about 380 square feet of concrete, 2,100 square feet of additional artificial turf matched to the existing turf area, engraved donation bricks, and additional landscaping and irrigation.
Polaris donated $100,000 to the Fernley Community Foundation in 2020 for Polaris Plaza, an outdoor space directly east of the Fernley Depot and north of the Community Response and Resource Center, envisioned as the “front porch” of the CRRC property.
The project is expected to be completed by this spring. “We can’t wait to transform this area into a key outdoor event space by this summer,” Wagner said.
