February 21 Community Meeting about Green Hills Park

On February 21, 6pm, at Hillsboro High School, Russ Pulley will be hosting a community meeting.  We will be presenting plans for the park and Festival, and need your input and help!  We particularly need help brainstorming sponsors and features for the Festival (set for Sept. 15, 2018) and working on a beautification committee for the park.   

Also, there will also be representatives from Metro who will present the proposed design for the Belmont Park Terrace sidewalk (alongside Green Hills Park). 

If you can't join us at the Feb. 21 meeting, but want to get involved, please email

Big thanks to everyone who donated to place sod on the grassy berms, and to Artisan Landscape Group for giving us a very reasonable price on the sod and putting it in place quickly.  The grass is looking great!

What else is new in and near the park?

• Crepe myrtles are coming to the park! Thanks to our Arden Place neighbors for their generous donations towards these beautiful trees.
• The concrete bench that was donated by former Councilmember Ron Turner has been moved by the Parks Dept. to a storage facility, so that it won't be damaged during the Belmont Park Terrace sidewalk construction.
• The sidewalk construction has finally begun at Lone Oak and Overhill!  It will connect Lone Oak all the way to Shackleford.  Hooray!

• And construction is starting in earnest at Hillsboro High School.  You can follow the progress at this link: http://wearehillsboro.com/campus-construction/
