Spencer Park Transfer Update

August 20, 2010

We have met with the Vernonia Parks Committee and will be meeting again to begin preliminary talks on what the current school site will look like when it is converted to a park. We know it must contain two soccer fields and a baseball field (in addition to the existing fields onsite) in order to qualify as a replacement for the existing Spencer Park fields. In addition we have permission from FEMA to keep the concession stand and the stadium (once we have done some flood proofing alterations to them). Once a draft plan is developed it will be shared with all those groups who currently use Spencer Park for their activities and the public for comment.
