In September 2021, the City of Thousand Oaks approved a $1.5 million grant to partially fund development of Conejo Creek Southwest Park, which as the name indicates, is southwest of Conejo Creek Park South. The 14 acre property, acquired in 1972, is bisected by Paige Lane as it travels beneath State Route 23.

The park has been renamed Paige Lane Neighborhood Park and is anticipated by CRPD to open in early September 2022. The new park will feature a Chumash-themed playground, parking lot, restroom, multi-use court/sand volleyball, shaded picnic area, drought-tolerant landscaping, water-efficient irrigation and walking/equestrian paths. The park is also adjacent to the Conejo Creek Bike Path.

Due to the current drought and CRPD’s efforts towards water conservation, the planned three acres of turf area will not be installed at the current time. We will initially see mulch cover and underground irrigation infrastructure for possible turf implementation at a later date, depending on future drought conditions.
