Board agrees to designate parcel behind Village Hall as 'Town Hall Park'
Summary
The Parks & Recreation Board and council agreed to designate the area behind Village Hall as a park and asked the mayor and village engineer to map a rectangular boundary; the board prefers the name 'Town Hall Park.'
The Village of Richfield Parks and Recreation Board agreed on May 4 to designate the parcel behind Village Hall as a park under the board's jurisdiction and asked the mayor to work with the village engineer to draft official rectangular boundaries. The suggested limits were described as south of the parking lot and east just past the tennis courts, aligned with the baseball field's east side. The board expressed a preference to name the site "Town Hall Park."
Board members emphasized they did not want responsibility beyond the defined limits and asked for a mapped boundary to clarify maintenance and liability. The mayor is to coordinate the mapping and return a formal boundary proposal to the board. This item was recorded as an agreed action during the May meeting; no formal ordinance number or effective date was provided in the minutes.
