Want to give your two cents about changes coming to your local park?

City Councilman Chaim Deutsch is inviting residents to Asser Levy Park Tuesday evening to discuss planned upgrades for the park.

The meeting will take place at 6pm in the playground. Members of the parks department will be present to hear from the community about what improvements they would like to see. Proposed changes for include expanding and revamping the playground, adding a sprinkler system, modernizing benches, installing new chess tables, and improving the drainage system to prevent further ponding and flooding, according the Deutsch’s office.

Since taking office, Deutsch has allocated funding to several parks in his district, including Asser Levy. He has also secured more than $50,000 to go towards improving the Asser Levy Park 9/11 Memorial and constructing a flagpole there. The project is expected to be completed this month.
