New signs for Cobb County parks were approved Aug. 28 by the Cobb County Board of Commissioners.
Pond & Company will be paid $85,610 to provide professional design services for parks signage and wayfinding design standards under the 2016 PARKS Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) Program.
No new maintenance or operational costs are associated with this project.
Since the establishment of the Cobb County Parks Department in 1966, a variety of different signage programs have been followed, according to PARKS Director Jimmy Gisi.
“Cobb residents and park visitors would benefit from a consistent and coordinated park signage and wayfinding system for locating park entrances and for navigating to various locations and facilities within the parks,” Gisi said in an Aug. 28 memo to Cobb County Manager Rob Hosack.
