Residents of DeKalb County will have the opportunity to share their input and ideas about the upcoming Stone Mountain Trail parklet. The Department of Recreation, Parks and Cultural Affairs has announced a community open house, which is set to be held at the Tobie Grant Recreation Center. The event, aimed to gather community feedback on the design of the new parklet at 489 Proctor Avenue, will take place on Thursday, January 16, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
The parklet, which will be a new addition to the Stone Mountain Trail, represents a chance not just to create a public space, but to shape to reflect the needs and wishes of local residents. In a statement obtained by DeKalb County's news announcement, the department has openly invited community members to participate and have a say in the planning process.
For those interested in attending the open house, the event's location is the Tobie Grant Recreation Center, situated at 593 Parkdale Drive in Scottdale, Georgia. Any additional inquiries can be directed to Caleb Wittenmyer, the greenspace manager for the Recreation, Parks and Cultural Affairs department. He is reachable at (404) 904-3028 or via email at [email protected] for those looking to get more involved or to just express any concerns or ideas ahead of the meeting.
