News & Announcements

At the Regular Meeting of Council held on Monday, April 8, 2019 City Council
proposed to designate a portion of Crescent Park and the Fred Flavelle
Memorial Lions Park as a “No Mow Zone”.  This No Mow Zone was
presented at no cost to the City and with a volunteer group planting tree
seedlings near the railroad tracks along the South and Southwest sides of the parks. This zone would be returned to it’s natural state with no maintenance provided by the City. The intention is to reduce current maintenance costs, improve the overall appearance and esthetics of the park and it may also serve to create a barrier for noise from the train tracks. (more…)
