Dunwoody Nature Center entrance gets a makeover

The City of Dunwoody has received construction bids for renovation of the Dunwoody Nature Center front entrance. In November, council members will vote on the lowest bid received by E. Harriman Construction for $119,989.

Work is scheduled to begin in early December. Plans include a new plaza with a bubbling pond, a trellis, and boardwalk.

City Council set aside $250,000 for a Facilities Improvement Partnership Program in the 2014 budget. The program will provide $110,000 towards project costs.
