Envision a new Sheffield park
Friday, April 9, 2021 by Tai Moses
The Parks and Recreation Department is hoping community members will share their thoughts and ideas about what updates they’d like to see at Beverly S. Sheffield Northwest District Park. The 31-acre park, located in the Allandale neighborhood, is named after a former director of the parks department. Besides baseball fields and basketball and tennis courts, the park features a pool, duck pond and walking trails along Shoal Creek. PARD will be gathering input through a community survey open now through April 18. The project team will discuss the proposed project at the first community meeting on Tuesday, May 4, at noon or at 5:30 p.m., via Zoom. The virtual meeting will be recorded and posted on the project web page.
