Pearsall Road Park Update

Feb 26, 2004

The original contractor working on the first phase of the project did not meet his contractual requirements. Therefore, the bonding company paid the city $10K in penalties and has hired another contractor to finish the work. That contractors started work on Feb 17 and has 60 days to finish. Hopefully, the $10K in penalties will be used for other much-needed projects at this sparsely-funded park instead of ?“disappearing?” into other areas of the city. Included in this first phase is the city?’s first dog park and an overlook area with earthen art.
