Cobb hosts input meetings on park plans

Several community input meetings on new Cobb parkland master plans will continue through March.

Cobb County PARKS’ staff members are the hosts to discuss planning for the future of new park properties purchased through the 2008 PARKS Bond program.

While there is no funding for the development of these properties, community input will play “a vital role” in planning for future development once funding is found, according to a county statement.

There will be a separate meeting for each of the properties purchased in Districts One, Three and Four.

Below is more information about the six meetings planned around the county:
