City Leverages $180K to get $1.2 Million to finish Greenway; Spends $600K on Parks

The City Council voted unanimously to approve $180,000 to finish the Brushy Fork Greenway which will connect Winston Lake with Salem Lake and its existing 12-mile greenway.  The real beauty of the deal is that the greenway is expected to cost $1.2 million so the approval of the funds leverages over a $1 million in state transportation funds.

The City Council also approved $600,000 to spend on parks around the city including a new boathouse and pier at Salem Lake.
