The rose garden, pond, play area are wonderful and could be in jeopardy. Sacramento County is preparing on putting in a huge vault to capture rainwater and sewage. This is just a band aide to the flooding problem and risk of sewage leakage into underwater rivers is scary. This vault ($30 million) will also house waste from near by Mercy Hospital.

Jim, these are beautiful. I don’t understand why they are putting useable water near sewage. Are they also talking about a waste treatment plant? Is there no other location?

Me and a friend walked around McKinley Park yesterday morning. And we spent about 35 minutes walking around the beautiful rose garden. I didn't bring my camera. Thank you for posting and sharing the information. I live near the UCD Med Center.

Great shots. The libs in Calif. are the reason we live in South Carolina. We don't miss Sacramento at all.

No, it is the capitol of California. I lived there many years in the 50s, 60s and 70s, so I know.
Didn't get to McKinley Park very often, it was a little too far away to get there on our bikes. And when I started driving I had better places to go (San Francisco, Folsom Lake, Lake Tahoe).
