The Town Council has approved $550,000 from the Capital Improvement budget for the current fiscal year for design and construction of a picnic area in Fountain Park between the Splash Pad and the Plaza Fountainside.
Community Services Director Kevin Snipes said they would like to have the project completed before the Splash Pad reopens for the summer in April.
“Staff is recommending $550,000 to design and construct a 60-foot shaded picnic area with 15 picnic tables and two new ramadas with three picnic tables each to increase seating around the area,” Snipes said.
