A state agency has recommended Doraville’s Halpern Park be included on a list of federally funded recreation projects in the coming year.

The state Department of Natural Resources recommended that more than $1 million worth of work be moved forward in the approval process.

Doraville is requesting $25,000 – to be matched locally – to begin renovations in the park. It is the only city in DeKalb and Fulton counties to earn state approval.

Final approval, from the U.S. Department of Interior, is expected later this year.
