Proposed improvements include ADA-compliant brick pavers, a relocated Visitor Kiosk to make its touch screen more visible and accessible, a three-level water drinking fountain, a 6-inch raised stage area for speakers and music performances, decorative lampposts and re-configured plant beds.
The plan was developed by Michael Haas, Delta’s director of landscape architecture, and presented at the Parks Board meeting on Jan. 7,
Representatives from community groups including the Friends of the Parks, the 4-C’s, and the Lake & Valley Garden Club were also on hand to provide feedback on the proposed plans. Haas’ firm designed in 2015 the Lucy B. Hamilton Amphitheater at The Fenimore Museum.
Following final approvals, the work will be undertaken in the fall of 2019.
Thank you Cooperstown Village Trustees….
not at all pet friendly…and the perspective displays it much larger then the park space actually is. Looks to me more like a parking lot than a park!
