Friends:
I just received an e-mail from Stacy Goodwin with Montgomery County Parks and Recreation. She tells me that construction has begun on the pavilions at Rotary Park. This is to repair the damage done by the tornado as well as make needed improvements. Also, both she and the Maintenance Department are working diligently to get the playground ready for use. The county is considering opening the front portion of the park where the damage has already been cleared and the park repaired. She assures me that the park will look better than ever when it is reopened.
With regards to the logging, she informs me that Gary Hamm contacted over twenty loggers about Rotary Park and only one was interested. Now, Gary can't get this guy to return his call. As far as the fence goes, this project is still a long way off. According to Stacy, the trees have to be dealt with first, then the Conservation Board has to approve the installation of the fence, then a survey of the park boundaries has to be completed, and then funding has to be secured and the materials purchased. As usual, the tree issue is still holding things up.
Once the front park reopens, we will schedule a workday. I will be contacting everyone by e-mail. If all goes well and the ATVs don't come back, we can schedule another. According to Stacy, she has not heard anything of the ATVs recently. Lets keep our fingers crossed and our heads bowed.
