Oliver Springs Seeks Grant to Enhance Arrowhead Park: Community Feedback Wanted

The Town of Oliver Springs is applying for a grant from the Tennessee Department of Environment & Conservation Recreation Resources Division to improve Arrowhead Park. This effort follows recommendations from the Anderson County Parks and Recreation Master Plan. Planned improvements include resurfacing the park's 1,320-foot walking trail with asphalt and improving drainage systems to enhance trail safety and usability.

The project also aims to increase park accessibility by making the ballfields ADA compliant. This will involve installing concrete pads for bleachers and creating designated ADA seating areas, making the park more welcoming for all visitors. These changes are important for inclusivity and accessibility.

Additionally, the park's lighting will be upgraded to LED security lights to better illuminate the area. The project also plans to install about three Wi-Fi nodes on existing light poles to improve internet connectivity for visitors.

The Town of Oliver Springs encourages community input on these proposed changes. Residents can access the full Project Proposal Presentation on the City's website, which offers detailed information and promotes transparency and community involvement.
