Parks and recreation board to host public input meeting

The Homewood parks and recreation board will be seeking community input during a town hall next week to talk about plans for two of the city's parks.

According to a release from Parks and Recreation Superintendent Rusty Holley, the meeting will cover the plans for a community pool at Patriot Park and renovation work on the athletic facilities at West Homewood Park. These plans will be funded by proceeds from a $110 million bond issue the city took out late last year, and would cost around $30-35 million.

The meeting will be May 9 at 6 p.m., at the Homewood Senior Center, 816 Oak Grove Road.
