The City of Slidell announced that there is now public WiFi in several public parks.
The City of Slidell hosted a Ribbon Cutting for the WiFi in Public Parks last week at Possum Hollow Park.
Mayor Cromer, members of the Slidell City Council, and elected and city officials were in attendance.
The project included the installation of equipment that provides wireless internet at four parks: Veterans Memorial Park (including the tennis courts and baseball field), Ducksworth, Possum Hollow, and Griffith Park.
The City of Slidell funded this project through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program which provides annual grants to develop viable urban communities.
The total cost of the project was approximately $112,000, and the work was completed by In-Telecom.
