Japanese Garden at the Temecula Duck Pond
PREPARED BY:
Kevin T. Harrington, Maintenance Superintendent
RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission review and approve the
conceptual plan for the Japanese Garden at the Temecula Duck Pond.
DISCUSSION: At the request of Councilman Ron Roberts, staff has completed a
conceptual master plan for a Japanese Garden, designed for the Temecula Duck Pond. The
Japanese Garden has been planned to honor the 10th anniversary of our Sister City relationship with
Nakayama, Japan. Funding for the project is approved and included in the City's 5-Year Capital
Improvement Program.
Staff has worked closely with Councilman Roberts and representatives from Nakayama to select the
appropriate location and develop a conceptual plan for the Japanese Garden. The Temecula Duck
Pond was an ideal location due to the mature trees, the pond and water feature and the central
location. It was important to our Japanese friends to incorporate the element of water into the design
to represent our connection with the Pacific Ocean and to add interest to the garden. It was also very
important to our Nakayama representatives to create a garden that was inviting and tranquil yet
simple and sustainable.
The garden will be located on the southwest side of the pond and will area will encompass
approximately half an acre. The plan will incorporate the use of stones and boulders, a stone water
fountain, which will be tied into the existing water fall, seating areas, additional flowering trees and
shrubs and a memorial plaque.
