As part of the development project, Sand Hill is required to put in park space or pay in-lieu of fees. Currently, the city is working to determine how much of the existing “park space” it will accept as part of the required 5.2 acres of park space. In-lieu of fees could be around $18.2 million. A combo of park space and in-lieu of fees is possible as well. The San Jose Parks Department would like to hear from the community regarding what we would like in the park space, either at the El Paseo 30-acre lot or a nearby location.
