Mayor "Underwhelmed" By Recommended Park Amenities

Plans include trails and parkways, a playground, gardens and landscape and a community launch pad. With the Dow People Place to be demolished, Mike Bradley is disappointed there isn't enough money for a permanent roof over the central gathering space and stage area.
