Can Orono Maintain Their Own Parks?
Let's ask the City of Orono how they are going to maintain our Parks and how much that is going to cost? Once again, poor @BederwoodPark is subject to someone ripping up the turf by riding through the entire park on a motorized vehicle.
Why is Orono building more amenities when they haven't put forth a plan for tree maintenance, invasive species or even upkeep of the park features we already have?
Will Orono Lose the Donation Garden?
Another park is slated for change in Orono. This time it is The Donation Garden, started in 2011 and located behind the Long Lake Fire Department. City officials are looking at ways to put in a parking lot and recreation courts that can only be used in the warmer months. We are looking to the upcoming open house for a plan that leaves The Donation Garden intact without moving or disrupting its important mission.
