Latest Plans for Ellsworth Field

The Parks Commission met this evening at the North End Library, but they didn't have a quorum so were unable to vote on the plans, but since so many people attended they decided to use the time to provide a public forum on the Ellsworth Field plans.  Eleven people spoke during the public portion, some were in favor of the plans and others had concerns.  The new restroom/concession/storage building is smaller in size and L-shaped.  There will be lighting under the eaves of the building, but the lighting in the rest of the park has been eliminated.  The splash park is still in the plans, but may not be built because of the cost.
