Orange County Great Park Corporation Board
The Orange County Great Park Corporation, a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, was established by the Irvine City Council on June 24, 2003. It is charged with the design, construction and maintenance of the Orange County Great Park, a 1,347 acre metropolitan park on the site of the former El Toro Marine Corps Air Station in Irvine, California. The Orange County Great Park Plan will provide a wide array of active and passive uses, including a 2.5 mile canyon and lake, miles of walking and biking trails, a cultural terrace, Orange County's largest sports park, a botanical garden, and a tethered helium observation balloon that will be an icon for the Great Park. More than 3,885 of the 4,700 acres will be dedicated to open space, education, and other public uses.
