FROM MAYOR ALLRED, THE TOWN COUNCIL, AND TOWN EMPLOYEES:
I have received several critical comments about the condition of Millport City Park, the baseball fields, and pavilion on the west side of Millport. The latest person had several critical comments and then admitted they had not been to the park in several months.
I would like to update you on the improvements that have been or are being made at the Park. New infield dirt has been added to the bottom field making it ready to be used. The Town purchased a new storage building for the teams to use to store equipment in the off season. We just completed restorations on the restrooms at the concession stand which included stalls being installed, paint, lighting, and new fixtures.
At the upper parking lot, we are in the process of building a new restroom facility and expanding the parking lot. There are new grills and ADA compliant picnic tables at the Park as well as the Walking Track.
The Town also keeps the grass mowed and w**d eating done, supplies water, electricity, empties garbage, and the use of the concession stand all at NO COST. And remember between baseball games and Toy Bowl team practices, there are only 3-4 months each year that teams are not at the Park. These are the only months we can work safely to make improvements.
In closing, we ask you to look around and give the Town credit before making critical comments.
Thank you,
Mayor Stanley Allred, Town Council, and Town employees
