The public will be invited to share views on details of new park at the “Bridge”. This narrow piece of land is next to the Hotel on Fairview Rd. Town staff have presented council with about five different concepts but nothing at the moment seems to please everyone so the public will get a chance to suggest ideas and options. Details on the public invite not yet determined. The work can go ahead as the funding is in place. The park will be constructed in the fall if all goes well.
The Hotel site is .809 hectares and the Park is .159 hectares.
