Medford’s city council voted to begin planning a $13.5 million water park that could open by May 2012.

City Council members agreed to spend $300,000 from a contingency fund to develop plans for the park, which would include slides, a lazy river, family beach areas, splash pads and a wave machine.

The aquatic center could be built in Bear Creek Park, where the existing dog park and BMX track are located, parks department officials told the council. The city would relocate those existing facilities as part of the project.
