The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted recently to approve a master plan for Nash Farm Park. The idea was commissioned and completed nearly a decade ago by a previous administration.

The plan includes walking trails, parking lots, playgrounds, conversion of activity barn into activity building, bike trails, equestrian trails, covered pavilion and garden. The 208-acre Nash Farm property was purchased by the county in 2008 and a master plan was created a year later, but county officials pointed out that it had never been adopted officially.

There are no plans for immediate implementation but county staff is urging the board to create a master plan for all county parks.
