Windtree Park Update!

Construction is getting closer! At last nights Council meeting the City Council authorized the City Manager to sign construction and access easement agreements with two property owners adjacent the North and East of the park property. The good news is that one of the easement agreements includes the construction of an asphalt path extending from 91st St to the North end of park site. (where the gravel driveway currently extends from the dead end of 121st) This will give residents a paved pathway from both the South end of the park and the North end of the park. The residents of Windtree owe both of these property owners a big "Thank You" for working so cooperatively with the City to reach this agreement.

This means that the city can now begin the process of advertising for a contractor (bidding the project) and hopefully start construction as soon as August. The public works director indicated that the park construction and landscaping would last about 3 months. If all goes well, we could see the park finished by Oct-Nov.
