The Ramona Community Complex Project is planned to create a year-round community resource that enhances existing community facilities while strengthening recreation, accessibility, community connections and emergency preparedness. The project builds upon existing community assets to better serve residents throughout the year and during emergencies. The project is funded through California's Community Resilience Centers Program, and community input, technical planning and collaboration with project partners will continue to guide project recommendations throughout the planning process.
The project area includes several existing community facilities, including:
- Ramona Community/Senior Center
- Ramona Outdoor Community Center
- Ramona Junior Fairgrounds
- Adjacent project parcels
- Surrounding recreation amenities
Project Progress & Accomplishments
Community Engagement Underway: Residents and local organizations are being invited to participate in project work groups and other opportunities to provide input. The project website has also launched as a central source for project information, updates and ways to participate. If you are interested in joining a work group, visit the Community Work Groups page to learn more and apply.
Local Shuttle Planning: From late August through September 18, community members were invited to participate in a survey to help plan a future local electric vehicle shuttle serving the project area. Survey input is now being used to inform route and stop planning.
Site and Accessibility Improvements: A civil engineering firm has been selected to design site accessibility and right-of-way improvements, including pedestrian paths of travel, street improvements, development of the vacant parcel and urban greening.
Improved Site Wi-Fi: Design of a site-wide Wi-Fi system has been completed to improve communications and connectivity. The installation contract is currently moving through the approval process.
Community/Senior Center Backup Power: A backup generator was installed to allow the facility to continue operating as a cooling center and support senior nutrition meal preparation during power outages. The project was funded through the County of San Diego's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program.
