The improvements to Hollis Park include a nature themed playground, accessible walkways into the park, new trees, new lighting for the playground area, and a refreshed picnic ramada.

The improvements are funded out of the city’s Capital Improvement Program budget, as part of the Parks Improvement Plan, which is reinvesting more than $60 million into Tempe parks over the next five years . Additional modifications or enhancements to other park amenities are not included in the budgeted amount.
