Granite Falls council approves monument stone order for Legion Park veterans memorial, declines onsite restroom
Summary
Councilmembers approved ordering stones for a veterans memorial at Legion Park and agreed not to build a bathroom facility at that site, opting instead to locate restrooms across the street at the existing park.
City Manager Jeff Balentine, with consultant Mohanna Goravanchi, presented proposed layouts and monument design options for the Legion Park veterans memorial on March 11. After reviewing designs, the council agreed to order the stones shown for the monument and reached consensus not to place a bathroom facility at the Legion Park site; restrooms would instead be located across the street at the existing park.
The council’s decision narrows the initial scope of improvements at Legion Park to monument construction and layout rather than expanded site utilities. No funding amounts or construction timelines were specified at the meeting; staff and consultants will return with procurement and scheduling details as needed.
