Oak Meadow Bandstand

The Town of Los Gatos is considering expanding the bandstand area in Oak Meadow Park to enhance the use of the space for large events and private rentals. This may include adding hardscape (e.g., pavers, concrete, etc.) to increase the amount of area available for dancing or other entertainment. In considering these improvements Town Staff would like to hear from park users about their experiences in the park and how these changes might enhance park use.
