County of Kern Secures $7,384,000

Congratulations to the County of Kern for being awarded a grant in the amount of $7,384,000 from the Statewide Parks Program administered by the California Department of Parks and Recreation for the Potomac Park Neighborhood Project!

The proceeds from this grant will be utilized to make significant improvements throughout the entire Potomac Park community, including the construction of a new soccer field, splash pad, dog park, basketball court, and shaded picnic area. The upgrades will also focus on increasing safety and accessibility through the implementation of new walkways, parking lots, and restrooms with high quality lighting. These efforts will greatly benefit residents, families, and visitors and encourage community engagement and growth.

This latest achievement is another example of the commitment of County leadership to protect and promote the quality of life of its residents and the prosperity of its businesses.

Once again, congratulations, Kern County!
