Volanta Park Baseball Addition Project Begins

Fairhope, Alabama 

 

Conceptual plan.

Ground work today.

MORE PARKING TOO

Now that football season has ended, construction has begun to build four new baseball ball fields ... and triple the number of parking spaces at the city's Volanta Park on Greeno Road .

One field at the Volanta Avenue entrance will be eliminated to make way for more parking.

The city council included $600K in this year's municipal  budget for the project; completion is expected before the 2022 baseball season.

Some changes may be needed to the disc golf course, according to a sign posted at the opening hole (see below).

This is the first phase of a multi-phase project that could  eventually enlarge the pool, re-locate and enhance the skate park, construct a new multi-use building, et al. (click).

Definitely support our youth sport programs but how in the world is Greeno and Volanta going to support all the additional traffic, especially with a large senior complex on Volanta/Greeno?

There is not a lot of thought given to transportation here, is there?

Wish more could be spent on traffic congestion too.

Cute, but frustration is not incompetence. Time is money for your more productive neighbors.

I retired stinking rich at 55, was smart enough not to allow frustration to control my productivity.

Gotcha. Before I crawl up Greeno tomorrow, I'll be sure to leave any sense of humility at home, deem myself smarter the smartest guy in town, and then defy time and space--just as you so successfully did.
