Park Overview
Veterans Memorial Park is located across the street from the Post Office and in front of the existing City Police Department. In addition to the memorial and park benches, a nearby gazebo provides additional seating and shade.
Improvement Opportunities
• Designate accessible parking spaces.
• Provide accessible paths to site benches.
• The addition of trees is a low-cost improvement that can be made. An urban forestry grant from the Tennessee Division of Forestry could pay for a significant portion of the cost.
• A memorial program could be implemented to pay for additional benches.
• The parking lot could be utilized for additional community wide events such as a farmers’ market or craft fair.
