HOW WILL HENDERSON SPEND TEN MILLION DOLLARS IN FEDERAL FUNDS? THE MONEY COMES FROM A FEDERAL RIVERFRONT IMPROVEMENT GRANT, AND COULD MEAN BIG CHANGES TO THE BANKS OF THE OHIO.
BUT, WILL THE PEOPLE OF HENDERSON EMBRACE THE PROJECTS THE CITY HAS PLANNED?
CITY LEADERS HOPE TO FUND REVAMPED TENNIS COURTS, A PERMENANT STAGE, AND AN EXTENSION TO THE EXISTING RIVER WALK. ONE ITEM LEFT OFF THE CURRENT PROJECTS LIST, AN EXPANSION OF THE WATER PARK. THE PROJECTS LIST IS HARDLY SET IN STONE. AND TUESDAY NIGHT, THE CITY COMMISSION WILL HOLD AN OPEN WORK SESSION TO REVIEW ITS PLANS FOR THE MONEY. THE CITY COMMISSION WILL MEET IN EXECUTIVE SESSION TUESDAY TO DISCUSS THE POSSIBILITY OF PURCHASING PROPERTY ALONG THE RIVERFRONT FOR SOME OF THE PROPOSED PROJECTS. THEY WILL THEN MEET IN OPEN SESSION TO FURTHER CONSIDER THE PROJECTS LIST.
