Nearing the finishing touches, the $4.35 million construction project is scheduled to be completed by October. Mayor Ed Klco, council president Richard C. Shreve, and their elected peers gave the project to Eastlake-based Huffman Equipment and construction Inc.
The new North Perry Park will consist of a 500 foot beach, a small boat dock, for about 12 to 14 boats, three boat ramps for loading and unloading into the water, a fishing pier. The park currently has 100 acres made for tennis courts, baseball fields, and a 50 foot beach.
Only North Perry residents will be able to use the park until 2012 or earlier, depending on how the mayor feels. "We need to use it for a couple of years before just everybody can come in, and next year will be the first year," Klco said. "It's totally funded by North Perry only and they truly deserve its initial best use. After 2012, or even earlier, my mind will be open to others."
