Coming soon:  sidewalk link connecting Green Hills Park to Hillsboro High School

2/5/2016

Councilman Pulley has announced a "missing link" sidewalk that will be built near Green Hills Park! The sidewalk that ends at Lone Oak and Overhill (picture one) will be continued so that it reaches Shackleford (picture two). This is a crucial connection between the park and Warfield, Temple, and Hillsboro High School.

In other good news, School Board has approved the funds to completely renovate Hillsboro High School. This renovation will include walking paths and fields that can be used by neighbors when the school is not using them. The tennis courts will be moved to the outside edge of the campus, which will be nice. Big thanks to School Board member Mary Pierce for her hard work on this project. The next step will be seeing if the Mayor includes this project in the Capital Improvement Budget.

 One last thing - the Green Hills Park survey results are being tallied and will be shared soon.  If you haven't yet filled out a survey but would like to do so, please do that by the end of the week.  Here's a link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/RXCMQGF

The park was beautiful during the recent snow - but well used, as always!
