MSKTD and Associates are responsible for all design necessary for bidding the construction work and will handle project management through completion. This will be Phase 1 of the project. Additional phases will be needed to complete the renovation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_1_placeholder\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This project is going to have a transformational impact on our community,&#8221; said Mayor Henry. &#8220;We&#8217;re going to fill a real need in our Parks system.
