We’re heading into 2020 but Emerald Hills Park is stuck in the 1960s. We need one last push to make sure the City includes funding for the Emerald Hills Park in the FY2020 budget. We have the opportunity to add the Emerald Hills Park General Development Plan Amendment to the budget on Monday, June 10. We are almost there and this is all happening because of all the hard work from the community. ⠀ ⠀ 🔊 On Monday, June 10, at 2pm the City Council will vote on approving the City’s FY2020 budget. This is the last day we can change anything in the budget!!!! ⠀ ⠀ Come out and ask the City Council to include funding for Emerald Hills Park General Development Plan Amendment in this years budget. The Amendment is the first step in finally renovating Emerald Hills Park. The General Development Plan is the plan for what the park will look like and is your chance to envision and rebuild this community space. #OurCityOurBudget #WeMakeThisCity #CommunityBudgetAlliance
