Today we were fortunate to meet with Allan Priest, the president of the EDH Promise Foundation, and explore the 200 acres. The planned development of the land is very exciting. Construction should start sometime next summer and will be built in stages. With the Community Service District’s current funds, the project is estimated to be completed around 10 years.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The wildlife and natural sounds out at Bass Lake Regional Park are simply amazing. Visitors will have the opportunity to bird watch, and possibly see a golden eagle nesting. Deer and jackrabbits will be out grazing and bugs will be busy working in their natural spaces. EDHCSD is dedicated to preserving it. The flora and fauna found in our backyard are what we want visitors to learn and enjoy at Bass Lake Regional Park.

Bass Lake Regional Park includes a beautiful lake with a natural corridor for wildlife, and we want to make sure that the space is used wisely and that people know about it.

El Dorado Hills CSD (EDHCSD) sees Bass Lake Regional Park as a community asset. We want families, kids, schools, and anyone in the area or region to come out and experience the park setting on the west side of the lake, the active ballpark, and the dog park. The trail will connect the west side of the park to the east side. The east side of the park will be more passive. EDHCSD envisions picnic areas along the trails with a possible disk golf area in the vicinity.

The Bass Lake property spans over 200 acres and consists of four parcels. The District has acquired the 142-acre parcel from the Rescue Union School District and is in the process of acquiring the additional parcels.
