(KAIR)--A possible upgrade for Atchison- northside LFM Park remains on the agenda, with the City of Atchison taking steps toward that goal.
Working within the City- focus on quality of life and recreational improvements, staff has proposed a park improvement project during the 2023 budget season, including an around $600,000 project in 2024 for LFM Park.
Clinton McNemee, Public Works Director, says the project would be funded through the next round of the State- Community Development Block Grant Program which the City plans to apply for. However, the application requires a preliminary engineering report, at an non-refundable cost of $25,500 for the City.
Following McNemee- presentation at the December 5 meeting of the Atchison City Commission, unanimous approval was granted to authorize staff to hire Snyder and Associates to complete the preliminary engineering report.
A public hearing on the matter is planned for next month.
