A minor use permit was approved for a new trampoline adventure park in the beginning of April, city officials confirmed.
Documents show the trampoline park is proposed for a building at 8525 Auburn Blvd., in the building that formerly housed Big Lots. A site plan indicates that the trampoline park will include a play area, party room and break room area, restrooms, a janitorial area, and office space.
According to the site plan, the play area will consist of multiple pieces of play equipment, including a 90-degree slide, zipline, swings, trampolines, obstacle courses, a swinging bridge, balance beams, and climbing structures such as a transparent climbing structure, cube climbing structure, climbing wall, and more. Another section of the play area includes a bubble soccer field, a skyline climbing course, a foam pit, a dodgeball field, “ninja” and “Super Mario” courses, and trampoline obstacle courses. The site plans indicate that ceilings will be left exposed.
Additionally, the site plan includes eight party rooms, a common area, and an arcade, along with restrooms, a break room, and a reception area with cubbies.
The proposal for FunCity Trampoline Park was submitted to the city for review in February.
“The City of Citrus Heights is committed to growing a diverse and vibrant local economy. Welcoming FunCity Trampoline Park to our community not only adds to our business landscape but also creates a new destination for families to enjoy meaningful experiences together,” the city said in a statement.
In the same plaza, plans are still under review for an area Ukrainian church to remodel the 50,000-square-foot adjacent building. Spring of Life Church purchased the vacant building for $3.95 million in the fall of 2023, according to prior reports. Studio Movie Grill had once planned to occupy the space but dropped plans during the pandemic when the company filed for bankruptcy.
A proposal for a new car dealership that would have occupied a portion of the former Big Lots building was later withdrawn in 2024.
Other nearby approved projects include a Starbucks to be built across the street from California Burgers and a food truck plaza at the corner of Twin Oaks Avenue and Auburn Boulevard.
