SILVER SPRING, MD-The Montgomery County Department of Parks invites community participation in a workshop on the proposed renovation and expansion of North Four Corners Local Park-211 Southwood Avenue, Silver Spring-Tuesday, June 12 at 7:00 pm.
The Montgomery County Planning Board approved the facility plan for the park on September 22, 2005. The approved plan includes a total of two multi-purpose rectangular sports fields: the existing field within the older area of the park and a new field within the undeveloped area along University Boulevard. The Montgomery County Council reviewed the project for approval of funding for final design and construction as part of the fiscal year 2007-2012 Capital Improvements Program (CIP) and requested additional study of park ball field needs and alternatives to the facility plan approved by the Planning Board, including options for one or two soccer fields and alternative non-soccer uses for the park’s existing field and proposed new field.
At the community meeting, the Department of Parks will present an assessment of park field needs and alternative design concepts. Public input will be taken on these presented plans and additional ideas will be welcomed. As part of its summary of findings for the County Council, the Department of Parks will incorporate public input taken during this meeting.
