Mayor Estok Proposes Date for Public Hearing Over Park Plan Draft

Today marks the final day that the draft of the Knox Parks 5-Year Master Plan can be submitted to the Department of Natural Resources in order for the City of Knox to be eligible for funding assistance for the proposed park projects.

Knox Mayor Dennis Estok reports the draft plan is complete and will be submitted on time. He also mentioned that he’s been corresponding with Architect Mike Reese from the Troyer Group about the date for the next public hearing over the Knox Parks 5-Year Master Plan.

At Tuesday night’s Knox City Council meeting Mayor Estok explained that he proposed holding the public hearing during the next Knox Park Board meeting on Thursday, January 25th.

As of last week, the Mayor had not received a confirmation from Reese. However, he felt confident that the date would work. During the public hearing, the results from the online survey will be discussed, as well as the draft master plan.
