City officials will unveil the final design for Waterfront Park at an open house Wednesday, May 6 at city hall.

The park is getting a major makeover, and the latest plans will be presented at the meeting, which will run from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in council chambers. Residents are invited to stop by to see the final design project drawings that have been completed by consultant Walker Macy.

City officials said the event will also be a celebration of all of the hard work that has been done by the city and community members to get to this point.

“This project is sure to have a tremendous positive impact on our community,” said Bainbridge City Manager Doug Schulze. “A revitalized and renovated Waterfront Park will be more accessible to the public and will better meet the needs of park users.”

The final design for Waterfront Park will be presented for city council approval Tuesday, May 26.

After receiving approval, the city will begin the permit application and bidding process with plans on beginning construction on the park project this fall.
