It could be a while longer before Dolores Park visitors get the renovated park they’ve been dreaming about. The Dolores Park Rehabilitation Project, which includes plans for new bathrooms, pathways and a multi-use building, is behind schedule and may not even go forward as agreed upon by the community.

Delays have popped up in the time line presented last spring, in part because an environmental review study has taken longer than expected.

In March, project architects from the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department announced at a community meeting that a draft environmental review would be released in May, with the final version due in August.

The purpose of the review, which is required under the California Environmental Quality Act before renovations can move forward, is to identify the project’s potential environmental impacts and evaluate the site’s historic resources.

As of today, no draft has been released.
