Residents will be able to stroll in Yorba Park 
but not let their dogs run free yet 
when city employees reopen the park on Monday. 

Yorba Park, a former landfill, was closed in August 1999 
that city employees could install a methane gas 
system. The park reopening was delayed while city 
decided if a dog park should be built there. 


Yorba Park will be open as a passive park every day 
from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. No organized sports programs will 
be allowed at the park. Two pedestrian gates will be 
unlocked from the parking lot to the park, but other 
access gates at Chapman Avenue and Yorba Street will 
remain closed. 

The park has no restrooms. 

Old benches and a tot lot have been removed.
