SAN JOSE — Santa Clara County is considering a revitalization plan to turn the 158-acre county fairgrounds in San Jose into a “grand public space” that could feature a 55-acre park, a museum displaying historic local neon signs and separate sports facilities for the San Jose Giants, San Jose Earthquakes and USA Cricket league.

Supervisor Cindy Chavez outlined the broad plan Tuesday, saying the changes would enhance family-oriented recreation already available at the fairgrounds while maintaining the site as the home of the annual county fair with its related agricultural activities for groups such as 4-H and Future Farmers of America.
