drive out by the park and see the large retaining wall that is in the process of being constructed. It will have a stamped impression and color resembling a local limestone. The wall will contain the material used to build up the power sub-station and direct water back to a pre-filter. This will help keep sediment out of the pond. It will also be the wall the fence will be re-attached to when they are done. ATC will be doing some landscaping to help the wall blend in a bit more after it is complete. The tunnel under the road will be replaced with a much larger one and there will be a better cover/grate to keep dogs from entering (or for some...exiting) the park.
*****Now is a great time to go out to Crossridge Park (other side of Milton from Dog Park) located off east of Parkview Dr., north of Townline Rd., and west of Hwy26
for a map click here and see the native wild flowers in bloom. The members of this parks committee have worked hard to restore the native grasses and flowers in and around the paved walking trails.
Stay tuned for the date of the seed pick this fall. Some will be used to establish areas in/near the dog park.
