Lane County Parks To Celebrate North Jetty Park Reopening With Ribbon-cutting Ceremony On Nov. 19 - 11/10/26

Lane County Parks invites the public to celebrate the reopening of the improved North Jetty recreation area in Florence with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday, November 19.

Lane County commissioners, park staff, project partners, and community members will gather to mark the opening of the park following major improvements that enhance safety, accessibility, and the overall visitor experience at this popular coastal recreation area.

The project included reconstruction of two parking lots, the addition of vault restrooms, and other visitor amenities. These improvements provide enhanced public access to the Oregon Coast and support recreation opportunities for residents and visitors.

The project was made possible through the voter-approved Lane County Parks Levy.

These improvements represent an investment in public access, visitor experience, and safety,” said Brett Henry, Lane County Parks division manager. “Thanks to voter support for the Parks Levy and our long-term lease with the Department of State Lands, we are able to enhance public access and recreation opportunities at North Jetty. We look forward to welcoming visitors to the improved park.”

Following the ceremony, attendees are invited to tour recent improvements at Harbor Vista Campground, including an upgraded restroom and shower facility and new hiker-biker campsites.
