Special parks meeting canceled

The Weirton Board of Parks and Recreation has canceled a special meeting that was to take place Thursday. This meeting aimed to discuss capital improvements at Marland Heights Park, a key area for local recreational activities. Instead, the topic will be addressed at the board's next regular meeting on August 21. Community members have shown interest in the planned upgrades, emphasizing the importance of maintaining and improving public parks. The board's decision to postpone allows for more comprehensive discussions on the park's future.

Previous meetings have highlighted the need for enhancements to local recreational spaces. The upcoming meeting will allow residents to voice their thoughts and suggestions directly to board members. Enhancing Marland Heights Park aligns with broader efforts to improve community facilities in Weirton.
