Plans are moving forward for Albany Community Park planned upgrades.
The facility is scheduled to receive improved access, parking and ADA compliant pathways as part of a community project. The project will focus on creating full and equitable access to the park for individuals with physical disabilities.
The park has been adopted by a project group of the Leadership Livingston’s Class of 2021. Each year Leadership Livingston class members are challenged to identify a community need to better Livingston Parish. The groups then submit a project proposal which includes a plan on how they will implement, fund and complete the project.
Albany Mayor, Eileen McCarroll, who is in the class and part of the project group notes, “As the group was brainstorming on a project, each of us submitted a need we were aware of. When the group voted to adopt the park in Albany, I was humbled and excited for what this means for our community. The park is a major asset to the Town of Albany.”
