The Woodstock City Council has approved a new consultant to take over the design of Little River Park.

The council on Monday retained Earth Elements NM LLC to complete the Little River Park Master Plan. It quoted fees totaling $52,340 for the job, and promised to present a final master plan report to the City Council on March 1, 2021.

The previous consultant, GreenbergFarrow, decided to exit the park design business and notified Woodstock that the staff assigned to the Little River Park project no longer was with the company, according to minutes of the Sept. 14 council meeting.

The firm agreed to release all documents and work product to the city.

Little River Park, named for the watercourse that runs through the northern portion of the site, will be off Trickum Road near Barnes Road.
